A Navigation and Augmented Reality System for Visually Impaired People
2021
In recent years, we have assisted with an impressive advance in augmented reality systems and computer vision algorithms, based on image processing and artificial intelligence. Thanks to these technologies, mainstream smartphones are able to estimate their own motion in 3D space with high accuracy. In this paper, we exploit such technologies to support the autonomous mobility of people with visual disabilities, identifying pre-defined virtual paths and providing context information, reducing the distance between the digital and real worlds. In particular, we present ARIANNA+, an extension of ARIANNA, a system explicitly designed for visually impaired people for indoor and outdoor localizati…
Vajadzību analīze jauktu spēju aktivitāšu izstrādei angļu valodas stundām 5. klasē
2017
Diplomdarba "Vajadzību analīze jauktu spēju aktivitāšu izstrādei angļu valodas stundām 5. klasē" autores mērķis bija izstrādāt jauktu spēju aktivitātes, kas apmierinātu 5. klases skolēnu mācīšanās vajadzības. Diplomdarba autore sāka mācīt Rīgas Purvciema vidusskolas 5.d klasi 2016.gada septembrī, un visi skolēni un viņu personiskās īpašības bija nezināmas diplomdarba autorei, kas kļuva par iemeslu, lai veiktu vajadzību analīzi gadījuma izpētes ietvaros, lai izstrādātu aktivitātes, kas būtu piemērotas un atbilstu skolēnu efektīvām mācībām angļu valodas stundās. Pētījuma procedūra ietver vairākas datu vākšanas metodes, proti, vajadzību analīzes anketu, daudzpusīgo spēju testu un novērošanu, k…
Hyper-flexible Convolutional Neural Networks based on Generalized Lehmer and Power Means
2022
Convolutional Neural Network is one of the famous members of the deep learning family of neural network architectures, which is used for many purposes, including image classification. In spite of the wide adoption, such networks are known to be highly tuned to the training data (samples representing a particular problem), and they are poorly reusable to address new problems. One way to change this would be, in addition to trainable weights, to apply trainable parameters of the mathematical functions, which simulate various neural computations within such networks. In this way, we may distinguish between the narrowly focused task-specific parameters (weights) and more generic capability-spec…
Performance Evaluation for a Sustainable Supply Chain Management System in the Automotive Industry Using Artificial Intelligence
2020
Increasing the sustainability of a system can be achieved by evaluating the system, identifying the issues and their root cause and solving them. Performance evaluation translates into key performance indicators (KPIs) with a high impact on increasing overall efficacy and efficiency. As the pool of KPIs has increased over time in the context of evaluating the supply chain management (SCM) system&rsquo
Mixtures identification of chemical compounds on the basis of their IR spectra by artificial intelligence
2012
Infrared (IR) spectrometric identification of individual chemical compounds from their mixtures is still a challenging process. Therefore, we developed a method in which we use the IR “Fingerprint” spectra of a particular chemical substance followed by artificial intelligence (AI) – based analysis to correctly characterise components of relatively simple chemical mixtures. We describe here the assembly of tools developed especially for this purpose as well as the artificial neural network design together with the requirements that must be met for its proper functioning. To test our approach, we used a mixture of amphetamine and creatinine which are difficult to identify in mixtures by stand…
Identifying the Neurocognitive bases of creativity to increase human and computational creativity
2022
En esta Tesis Doctoral se ha identificado la estructura neurocognitiva que sustenta la creatividad humana a partir del análisis conjunto de más de 800 referencias bibliográficas que muestran las investigaciones más importantes realizadas hasta la fecha. Sobre la base de esta estructura, se ha identificado un paradigma neurocognitivo de la creatividad humana y se ha propuesto un modelo neurocognitivo del proceso creativo. Finalmente, también se ha propuesto un paradigma creativo neurocognitivo computacional y se ha diseñado la estructura de un sistema computacional creativo, basado en una estructura multiagente. La investigación que se ha realizado sobre el tema hasta la fecha es muy especia…
Inteligencji wieki stare i nowe [Rec. David Adam: Ukryty geniusz. Pigułki na rozum, hakerzy mózgu i sekrety inteligencji. Kraków 2020]
2020
Książka Ukryty geniusz. Pigułki na rozum, hakerzy mózgu i sekrety inteligencji Davida Adama to pozycja wpisująca się w trend wydawniczy do publikowania książek przez znanych i cenionych historyków i popularyzatorów nauki, jak np. Niall Ferguson, Youval Noah Harari czy Bill Bryson. Autor, z wykształcenia chemik, zabiera czytelnika w podróż po historii badań ludzkiej inteligencji. W książce sporo miejsca poświęcono także serii eksperymentów, którym — na potrzeby publikacji — autor sam się poddał. Wnioski, jakie wyciągnął zarówno z przeszłości, jak i teraźniejszości, skłoniły go do stwierdzenia, że przyszłość należy do rewolucji neuronaukowej.
Neural Classification of Compost Maturity by Means of the Self-Organising Feature Map Artificial Neural Network and Learning Vector Quantization Algo…
2019
Self-Organising Feature Map (SOFM) neural models and the Learning Vector Quantization (LVQ) algorithm were used to produce a classifier identifying the quality classes of compost, according to the degree of its maturation within a period of time recorded in digital images. Digital images of compost at different stages of maturation were taken in a laboratory. They were used to generate an SOFM neural topological map with centres of concentration of the classified cases. The radial neurons on the map were adequately labelled to represent five suggested quality classes describing the degree of maturation of the composted organic matter. This enabled the creation of a neural separator classify…
Very narrow quantum OBDDs and width hierarchies for classical OBDDs
2014
In the paper we investigate a model for computing of Boolean functions - Ordered Binary Decision Diagrams (OBDDs), which is a restricted version of Branching Programs. We present several results on the comparative complexity for several variants of OBDD models. - We present some results on the comparative complexity of classical and quantum OBDDs. We consider a partial function depending on a parameter k such that for any k > 0 this function is computed by an exact quantum OBDD of width 2, but any classical OBDD (deterministic or stable bounded-error probabilistic) needs width 2 k+1. - We consider quantum and classical nondeterminism. We show that quantum nondeterminism can be more efficien…
Wiener-Granger Causality in Network Physiology with Applications to Cardiovascular Control and Neuroscience
2016
Since the operative definition given by C. W. J. Granger of an idea expressed by N. Wiener, the Wiener–Granger causality (WGC) has been one of the most relevant concepts exploited by modern time series analysis. Indeed, in networks formed by multiple components, working according to the notion of segregation and interacting with each other according to the principle of integration, inferring causality has opened a window on the effective connectivity of the network and has linked experimental evidences to functions and mechanisms. This tutorial reviews predictability improvement, information-based and frequency domain methods for inferring WGC among physiological processes from multivariate…
