Online Topology Identification from Vector Autoregressive Time Series
2019
Causality graphs are routinely estimated in social sciences, natural sciences, and engineering due to their capacity to efficiently represent the spatiotemporal structure of multivariate data sets in a format amenable for human interpretation, forecasting, and anomaly detection. A popular approach to mathematically formalize causality is based on vector autoregressive (VAR) models and constitutes an alternative to the well-known, yet usually intractable, Granger causality. Relying on such a VAR causality notion, this paper develops two algorithms with complementary benefits to track time-varying causality graphs in an online fashion. Their constant complexity per update also renders these a…
Adapting to Dynamic LEO-B5G Systems : Meta-Critic Learning Based Efficient Resource Scheduling
2022
Low earth orbit (LEO) satellite-assisted communications have been considered as one of key elements in beyond 5G systems to provide wide coverage and cost-efficient data services. Such dynamic space-terrestrial topologies impose exponential increase in the degrees of freedom in network management. In this paper, we address two practical issues for an over-loaded LEO-terrestrial system. The first challenge is how to efficiently schedule resources to serve the massive number of connected users, such that more data and users can be delivered/served. The second challenge is how to make the algorithmic solution more resilient in adapting to dynamic wireless environments.To address them, we first…
SHARP: Environment and Person Independent Activity Recognition with Commodity IEEE 802.11 Access Points
2022
In this article we present SHARP, an original approach for obtaining human activity recognition (HAR) through the use of commercial IEEE 802.11 (Wi-Fi) devices. SHARP grants the possibility to discern the activities of different persons, across different time-spans and environments. To achieve this, we devise a new technique to clean and process the channel frequency response (CFR) phase of the Wi-Fi channel, obtaining an estimate of the Doppler shift at a radio monitor device. The Doppler shift reveals the presence of moving scatterers in the environment, while not being affected by (environment-specific) static objects. SHARP is trained on data collected as a person performs seven differe…
Aerial Spectrum Surveying: Radio Map Estimation with Autonomous UAVs
2020
Radio maps are emerging as a popular means to endow next-generation wireless communications with situational awareness. In particular, radio maps are expected to play a central role in unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) communications since they can be used to determine interference or channel gain at a spatial location where a UAV has not been before. Existing methods for radio map estimation utilize measurements collected by sensors whose locations cannot be controlled. In contrast, this paper proposes a scheme in which a UAV collects measurements along a trajectory. This trajectory is designed to obtain accurate estimates of the target radio map in a short time operation. The route planning a…
Online Fault Diagnosis System for Electric Powertrains Using Advanced Signal Processing and Machine Learning
2018
Online condition monitoring and fault diagnosis systems are necessary to prevent unexpected downtimes in critical electric powertrains. The machine learning algorithms provide a better way to diagnose faults in complex cases, such as mixed faults and/or in variable speed conditions. Most of studies focus on training phases of the machine learning algorithms, but the development of the trained machine learning algorithms for an online diagnosis system is not detailed. In this study, a complete procedure of training and implementation of an online fault diagnosis system is presented and discussed. Aspects of the development of an online fault diagnosis based on machine learning algorithms are…
Special Issue on Signal Processing and Machine Learning for Biomedical Data
2021
This Special Issue is focused on advanced techniques in signal processing, analysis, modelling, and classification, applied to a variety of medical diagnostic problems. Biomedical data play a fundamental role in many fields of research and clinical practice. Very often the complexity of these data and their large volume makes it necessary to develop advanced analysis techniques and systems. Furthermore, the introduction of new techniques and methodologies for diagnostic purposes, especially in the field of medical imaging, requires new signal processing and machine learning methods. The recent progress in machine learning techniques, and in particular deep learning, revolutionized various f…
From Signal Processing to Machine Learning
2018
This chapter reviews the main landmarks of signal processing in the 20th century from the perspective of algorithmic developments. It focuses on cross‐fertilization with the field of statistical (machine) learning in the last decades. In the 21st century, model and data assumptions as well as algorithmic constraints are no longer valid, and the field of machine‐learning signal processing has erupted, with many successful stories to tell. The chapter also focuses on digital signal processing (DSP), which deals with the analysis of digitized and discrete sampled signals. Machine learning is a branch of computer science and artificial intelligence that enables computers to learn from data. Mac…

It is focused on the analysis of machine learning methods for graph (signal) processing.- Finally, the third and last part, oriented towards the future, is concerned with (automatic or not) differentiation of algorithms for learnin…
An Online Metric Learning Approach through Margin Maximization
2011
This work introduces a method based on learning similarity measures between pairs of objects in any representation space that allows to develop convenient recognition algorithms. The problem is formulated through margin maximization over distance values so that it can discriminate between similar (intra-class) and dissimilar (inter-class) elements without enforcing positive definiteness of the metric matrix as in most competing approaches. A passive-aggressive approach has been adopted to carry out the corresponding optimization procedure. The proposed approach has been empirically compared to state of the art metric learning on several publicly available databases showing its potential bot…
Predicting Next Dialogue Action in Emotionally Loaded Conversation
2021
This paper reports on creating a neural network model for prediction of the next action in a dialogue considering conversation history, i.e. entities, context variables and emotion indicators marking emotionally loaded user utterances. Several experiments were performed to see how the information about emotions affects the accuracy of the model. For the purposes of these experiments, a dataset containing 206 dialogs in Latvian in the transport inquiry domain was created containing both neutral and emotionally loaded utterances. To see if the proposed next dialogue action prediction model architecture is suitable for other languages, the original Latvian utterances were translated into Engli…
