Game analysis and control by means of continuously learning networks
2002
The paper deals with the question, if and how the process of learning can be modelled, analysed and maybe improved by means of Neural Networks. The problem is that most of the developed types of ne...
No-Reference 3D Mesh Quality Assessment Based on Dihedral Angles Model and Support Vector Regression
2016
International audience; 3D meshes are subject to various visual distortions during their transmission and geometrical processing. Several works have tried to evaluate the visual quality using either full reference or reduced reference approaches. However, these approaches require the presence of the reference mesh which is not available in such practical situations. In this paper, the main contribution lies in the design of a computational method to automatically predict the perceived mesh quality without reference and without knowing beforehand the distortion type. Following the no-reference (NR) quality assessment principle, the proposed method focuses only on the distorted mesh. Specific…
On the relative sizes of learnable sets
1998
Abstract Measure and category (or rather, their recursion-theoretical counterparts) have been used in theoretical computer science to make precise the intuitive notion “for most of the recursive sets”. We use the notions of effective measure and category to discuss the relative sizes of inferrible sets, and their complements. We find that inferable sets become large rather quickly in the standard hierarchies of learnability. On the other hand, the complements of the learnable sets are all large.
Hardware implementation of real-time Extreme Learning Machine in FPGA: Analysis of precision, resource occupation and performance
2016
Extreme Learning Machine (ELM) on-chip learning is implemented on FPGA.Three hardware architectures are evaluated.Parametrical analysis of accuracy, resource occupation and performance is carried out. Display Omitted Extreme Learning Machine (ELM) proposes a non-iterative training method for Single Layer Feedforward Neural Networks that provides an effective solution for classification and prediction problems. Its hardware implementation is an important step towards fast, accurate and reconfigurable embedded systems based on neural networks, allowing to extend the range of applications where neural networks can be used, especially where frequent and fast training, or even real-time training…
Data Analytics in Healthcare: A Tertiary Study
2022
AbstractThe field of healthcare has seen a rapid increase in the applications of data analytics during the last decades. By utilizing different data analytic solutions, healthcare areas such as medical image analysis, disease recognition, outbreak monitoring, and clinical decision support have been automated to various degrees. Consequently, the intersection of healthcare and data analytics has received scientific attention to the point of numerous secondary studies. We analyze studies on healthcare data analytics, and provide a wide overview of the subject. This is a tertiary study, i.e., a systematic review of systematic reviews. We identified 45 systematic secondary studies on data analy…
Talent identification in soccer using a one-class support vector machine
2019
Abstract Identifying potential future elite athletes is important in many sporting events. The successful identification of potential future elite athletes at an early age would help to provide high-quality coaching and training environments in which to optimize their development. However, a large variety of different skills and qualities are needed to succeed in elite sports, making talent identification generally a complex and multifaceted problem. Due to the rarity of elite athletes, datasets are inherently imbalanced, making classical statistical inference difficult. Therefore, we approach talent identification as an anomaly detection problem. We trained a nonlinear one-class support ve…
A Learning Automaton-based Scheme for Scheduling Domestic Shiftable Loads in Smart Grids
2017
In this paper, we consider the problem of scheduling shiftable loads, over multiple users, in smart electrical grids. We approach the problem, which is becoming increasingly pertinent in our present energy-thirsty society, using a novel distributed game-theoretic framework. In our specific instantiation, we consider the scenario when the power system has a local-area Smart Grid subnet comprising of a single power source and multiple customers. The objective of the exercise is to tacitly control the total power consumption of the customers’ shiftable loads, so to approach the rigid power budget determined by the power source, but to simultaneously not exceed this threshold. As opposed to the…
On achieving intelligent traffic-aware consolidation of virtual machines in a data center using Learning Automata
2018
Unlike the computational mechanisms of the past many decades, that involved individual (extremely powerful) computers or clusters of machines, cloud computing (CC) is becoming increasingly pertinent and popular. Computing resources such as CPU and storage are becoming cheaper, and the servers themselves are becoming more powerful. This enables clouds to host more virtual machines (VMs). A natural consequence ofthis is that many modern-day data centers experience very high internaltraffic within the data centers themselves. This is, of course, due to the occurrence of servers that belong to the same tenant, communicating between themselves. The problem is accentuated when the VM deployment t…
A Machine Learning Approach for Fall Detection and Daily Living Activity Recognition
2019
The number of older people in western countries is constantly increasing. Most of them prefer to live independently and are susceptible to fall incidents. Falls often lead to serious or even fatal injuries which are the leading cause of death for elderlies. To address this problem, it is essential to develop robust fall detection systems. In this context, we develop a machine learning framework for fall detection and daily living activity recognition. We use acceleration and angular velocity data from two public databases to recognize seven different activities, including falls and activities of daily living. From the acceleration and angular velocity data, we extract time- and frequency-do…

2021
This paper aims at highlighting cutting-edge research results in the field of visual tracking by deep reinforcement learning. Deep reinforcement learning (DRL) is an emerging area combining recent progress in deep and reinforcement learning. It is showing interesting results in the computer vision field and, recently, it has been applied to the visual tracking problem yielding to the rapid development of novel tracking strategies. After providing an introduction to reinforcement learning, this paper compares recent visual tracking approaches based on deep reinforcement learning. Analysis of the state-of-the-art suggests that reinforcement learning allows modeling varying parts of the tracki…
