2	Solving systems of monotone inclusions via primal-dual splitting techniques Bot, Radu Ioan, Csetnek, Ernö Robert, Nagy, Erika 20 March 2013 (has links) (PDF) In this paper we propose an algorithm for solving systems of coupled monotone inclusions in Hilbert spaces. The operators arising in each of the inclusions of the system are processed in each iteration separately, namely, the single-valued are evaluated explicitly (forward steps), while the set-valued ones via their resolvents (backward steps). In addition, most of the steps in the iterative scheme can be executed simultaneously, this making the method applicable to a variety of convex minimization problems. The numerical performances of the proposed splitting algorithm are emphasized through applications in average consensus on colored networks and image classification via support vector machines. convexe optimierung algorithmen convex minimization coupled systems forward-backward-forward algorithm monotone inclusion operator splitting 47H05 65K05 90C25 90C46 ddc:510 Algorithmus Operator-Splitting-Verfahren
3	Statistical inference on random graphs and networks / Inferência estatística para grafos aleatórios e redes Cerqueira, Andressa 28 February 2018 (has links) In this thesis we study two probabilistic models defined on graphs: the Stochastic Block model and the Exponential Random Graph. Therefore, this thesis is divided in two parts. In the first part, we introduce the Krichevsky-Trofimov estimator for the number of communities in the Stochastic Block Model and prove its eventual almost sure convergence to the underlying number of communities, without assuming a known upper bound on that quantity. In the second part of this thesis we address the perfect simulation problem for the Exponential random graph model. We propose an algorithm based on the Coupling From The Past algorithm using a Glauber dynamics. This algorithm is efficient in the case of monotone models. We prove that this is the case for a subset of the parametric space. We also propose an algorithm based on the Backward and Forward algorithm that can be applied for monotone and non monotone models. We prove the existence of an upper bound for the expected running time of both algorithms. / Nessa tese estudamos dois modelos probabilísticos definidos em grafos: o modelo estocástico por blocos e o modelo de grafos exponenciais. Dessa forma, essa tese está dividida em duas partes. Na primeira parte nós propomos um estimador penalizado baseado na mistura de Krichevsky-Trofimov para o número de comunidades do modelo estocástico por blocos e provamos sua convergência quase certa sem considerar um limitante conhecido para o número de comunidades. Na segunda parte dessa tese nós abordamos o problema de simulação perfeita para o modelo de grafos aleatórios Exponenciais. Nós propomos um algoritmo de simulação perfeita baseado no algoritmo Coupling From the Past usando a dinâmica de Glauber. Esse algoritmo é eficiente apenas no caso em que o modelo é monotóno e nós provamos que esse é o caso para um subconjunto do espaço paramétrico. Nós também propomos um algoritmo de simulação perfeita baseado no algoritmo Backward and Forward que pode ser aplicado à modelos monótonos e não monótonos. Nós provamos a existência de um limitante superior para o número esperado de passos de ambos os algoritmos.

6	Enhanching the Human-Team Awareness of a Robot Wåhlin, Peter January 2012 (has links) The use of autonomous robots in our society is increasing every day and a robot is no longer seen as a tool but as a team member. The robots are now working side by side with us and provide assistance during dangerous operations where humans otherwise are at risk. This development has in turn increased the need of robots with more human-awareness. Therefore, this master thesis aims at contributing to the enhancement of human-aware robotics. Specifically, we are investigating the possibilities of equipping autonomous robots with the capability of assessing and detecting activities in human teams. This capability could, for instance, be used in the robot's reasoning and planning components to create better plans that ultimately would result in improved human-robot teamwork performance. we propose to improve existing teamwork activity recognizers by adding intangible features, such as stress, motivation and focus, originating from human behavior models. Hidden markov models have earlier been proven very efficient for activity recognition and have therefore been utilized in this work as a method for classification of behaviors. In order for a robot to provide effective assistance to a human team it must not only consider spatio-temporal parameters for team members but also the psychological.To assess psychological parameters this master thesis suggests to use the body signals of team members. Body signals such as heart rate and skin conductance. Combined with the body signals we investigate the possibility of using System Dynamics models to interpret the current psychological states of the human team members, thus enhancing the human-awareness of a robot. / Användningen av autonoma robotar i vårt samhälle ökar varje dag och en robot ses inte längre som ett verktyg utan som en gruppmedlem. Robotarna arbetar nu sida vid sida med oss och ger oss stöd under farliga arbeten där människor annars är utsatta för risker. Denna utveckling har i sin tur ökat behovet av robotar med mer människo-medvetenhet. Därför är målet med detta examensarbete att bidra till en stärkt människo-medvetenhet hos robotar. Specifikt undersöker vi möjligheterna att utrusta autonoma robotar med förmågan att bedöma och upptäcka olika beteenden hos mänskliga lag. Denna förmåga skulle till exempel kunna användas i robotens resonemang och planering för att ta beslut och i sin tur förbättra samarbetet mellan människa och robot. Vi föreslår att förbättra befintliga aktivitetsidentifierare genom att tillföra förmågan att tolka immateriella beteenden hos människan, såsom stress, motivation och fokus. Att kunna urskilja lagaktiviteter inom ett mänskligt lag är grundläggande för en robot som ska vara till stöd för laget. Dolda markovmodeller har tidigare visat sig vara mycket effektiva för just aktivitetsidentifiering och har därför använts i detta arbete. För att en robot ska kunna ha möjlighet att ge ett effektivt stöd till ett mänskligtlag måste den inte bara ta hänsyn till rumsliga parametrar hos lagmedlemmarna utan även de psykologiska. För att tyda psykologiska parametrar hos människor förespråkar denna masteravhandling utnyttjandet av mänskliga kroppssignaler. Signaler så som hjärtfrekvens och hudkonduktans. Kombinerat med kroppenssignalerar påvisar vi möjligheten att använda systemdynamiksmodeller för att tolka immateriella beteenden, vilket i sin tur kan stärka människo-medvetenheten hos en robot. / <p>The thesis work was conducted in Stockholm, Kista at the department of Informatics and Aero System at Swedish Defence Research Agency.</p> robotics Artificial Intelligence AI System Dynamics Wireless Body Area Network WBAN sensors Psychology physiology human behavior Human-Robot-Interaction HRI robot Human-Team awareness human-robot RapidMiner Vensim JaHMM hidden markov models HMM eclipse rcp ARFF recognizer classification cross-validation human behavior stress detection Galvanic Skin Response Heart Rate Skin Temperature Finger Temperature Electrocardiogram ECG GSR ST Pupil Diameter PD Patient monitoring GPS Data acquisition dataset data set MODERE Yerkes-Dodson SD model SD Confusion matrix spatial MOUT Java Agent robotic agent Machine Learning activity recognition team oriented robot Evaluation Decoding Learning Forward Algorithm Backward Algorithm Baum-Welch feedback loop Situation Awareness SA Shared Mental Models SMM
