Digital information receiver based on stochastic resonance
2003
International audience; An electronic receiver based on stochastic resonance is presented to rescue subthreshold modulated digital data. In real experiment, it is shown that a complete data restoration is achieved for both uniform and Gaussian white noise.
Voxel-based General Voronoi Diagram for Complex Data with Application on Motion Planning
2020
One major challenge in Assembly Sequence Planning (ASP) for complex real-world CAD-scenarios is to find appropriate disassembly paths for all assembled parts. Such a path places demands on its length and clearance. In the past, it became apparent that planning the disassembly path based on the (approximate) General Voronoi Diagram (GVD) is a good approach to achieve these requirements. But for complex real-world data, every known solution for computing the GVD is either too slow or very memory consuming, even if only approximating the GVD.We present a new approach for computing the approximate GVD and demonstrate its practicability using a representative vehicle data set. We can calculate a…
On the Online Classification of Data Streams Using Weak Estimators
2016
In this paper, we propose a novel online classifier for complex data streams which are generated from non-stationary stochastic properties. Instead of using a single training model and counters to keep important data statistics, the introduced online classifier scheme provides a real-time self-adjusting learning model. The learning model utilizes the multiplication-based update algorithm of the Stochastic Learning Weak Estimator (SLWE) at each time instant as a new labeled instance arrives. In this way, the data statistics are updated every time a new element is inserted, without requiring that we have to rebuild its model when changes occur in the data distributions. Finally, and most impo…
On the inductive inference of recursive real-valued functions
1999
AbstractWe combine traditional studies of inductive inference and classical continuous mathematics to produce a study of learning real-valued functions. We consider two possible ways to model the learning by example of functions with domain and range the real numbers. The first approach considers functions as represented by computable analytic functions. The second considers arbitrary computable functions of recursive real numbers. In each case we find natural examples of learnable classes of functions and unlearnable classes of functions.
Linear-size suffix tries
2016
Suffix trees are highly regarded data structures for text indexing and string algorithms [MCreight 76, Weiner 73]. For any given string w of length n = | w | , a suffix tree for w takes O ( n ) nodes and links. It is often presented as a compacted version of a suffix trie for w, where the latter is the trie (or digital search tree) built on the suffixes of w. Here the compaction process replaces each maximal chain of unary nodes with a single arc. For this, the suffix tree requires that the labels of its arcs are substrings encoded as pointers to w (or equivalent information). On the contrary, the arcs of the suffix trie are labeled by single symbols but there can be Θ ( n 2 ) nodes and lin…
Generic attribute deviation metric for assessing mesh simplification algorithm quality
2002
International audience; This paper describes an efficient method to compare two triangular meshes. Meshes considered here contain geometric features as well as other surface attributes such as material colors, texture, temperature, radiation, etc. Two deviation measurements are presented to assess the differences between two meshes. The first measurement, called geometric deviation, returns geometric differences. The second measurement , called attribute deviation, returns attribute differences regardless of the attribute type. In this paper we present an application of this method to the Mesh Simplification Algorithm (MSA) quality assessment according to the appearance attributes. This ass…
Use of wavelet for image processing in smart cameras with low hardware resources
2013
International audience; Images from embedded sensors need digital processing to recover high-quality images and to extract features of a scene. Depending on the properties of the sensor and on the application, the designer fits together different algorithms to process images. In the context of embedded devices, the hardware supporting those applications is very constrained in terms of power consumption and silicon area. Thus, the algorithms have to be compliant with the embedded specifications i.e. reduced computational complexity and low memory requirements. We investigate the opportunity to use the wavelet representation to perform good quality image processing algorithms at a lower compu…
How Low Can Approximate Degree and Quantum Query Complexity Be for Total Boolean Functions?
2012
It has long been known that any Boolean function that depends on n input variables has both degree and exact quantum query complexity of Omega(log n), and that this bound is achieved for some functions. In this paper we study the case of approximate degree and bounded-error quantum query complexity. We show that for these measures the correct lower bound is Omega(log n / loglog n), and we exhibit quantum algorithms for two functions where this bound is achieved.
Population Monte Carlo Schemes with Reduced Path Degeneracy
2017
Population Monte Carlo (PMC) algorithms are versatile adaptive tools for approximating moments of complicated distributions. A common problem of PMC algorithms is the so-called path degeneracy; the diversity in the adaptation is endangered due to the resampling step. In this paper we focus on novel population Monte Carlo schemes that present enhanced diversity, compared to the standard approach, while keeping the same implementation structure (sample generation, weighting and resampling). The new schemes combine different weighting and resampling strategies to reduce the path degeneracy and achieve a higher performance at the cost of additional low computational complexity cost. Computer si…
RNN- and LSTM-Based Soft Sensors Transferability for an Industrial Process
2021
The design and application of Soft Sensors (SSs) in the process industry is a growing research field, which needs to mediate problems of model accuracy with data availability and computational complexity. Black-box machine learning (ML) methods are often used as an efficient tool to implement SSs. Many efforts are, however, required to properly select input variables, model class, model order and the needed hyperparameters. The aim of this work was to investigate the possibility to transfer the knowledge acquired in the design of a SS for a given process to a similar one. This has been approached as a transfer learning problem from a source to a target domain. The implementation of a transf…
