Upport vector machines for nonlinear kernel ARMA system identification.
2006
Nonlinear system identification based on support vector machines (SVM) has been usually addressed by means of the standard SVM regression (SVR), which can be seen as an implicit nonlinear autoregressive and moving average (ARMA) model in some reproducing kernel Hilbert space (RKHS). The proposal of this letter is twofold. First, the explicit consideration of an ARMA model in an RKHS (SVM-ARMA 2k) is proposed. We show that stating the ARMA equations in an RKHS leads to solving the regularized normal equations in that RKHS, in terms of the autocorrelation and cross correlation of the (nonlinearly) transformed input and output discrete time processes. Second, a general class of SVM-based syste…
ORGANIZED LEARNING MODELS (PURSUER CONTROL OPTIMISATION)
1983
Abstract The concept of Organized Learning is defined, and some random models are presented. For Not Transferable Learning, it is necessary to start from an instantaneous learning; by a discrete way, we must form a stochastic model considering the probability of each path; with a continue aproximation, we can study the evolution of the internal state through to consider the relative and absolute probabilities, by means of differential equations systems. For Transferable Learning, the instantaneous learning give us directly the System evolution. So, the Algoritmes for the different models are compared.
A computer method for estimating volumes and surface areas of complex structures consisting of overlapping spheres
1992
A PASCAL program which calculates volumes and surface areas of structures consisting of overlapping spheres is designed. The calculation is done by modelling the structure in the memory of a computer and then scanning the memory bit- or bytewise. A brief discussion of the error is presented, and an example for testing the algorithm is provided.
Combining Supervised and Unsupervised Learning to Discover Emotional Classes
2017
Most previous work in emotion recognition has fixed the available classes in advance, and attempted to classify samples into one of these classes using a supervised learning approach. In this paper, we present preliminary work on combining supervised and unsupervised learning to discover potential latent classes which were not initially considered. To illustrate the potential of this hybrid approach, we have used a Self-Organizing Map (SOM) to organize a large number of Electroencephalogram (EEG) signals from subjects watching videos, according to their internal structure. Results suggest that a more useful labelling scheme could be produced by analysing the resulting topology in relation t…
An asynchronous covert channel using spam
2012
AbstractCurrent Internet e-mail facilities are built onto the foundation of standard rules and protocols, which usually allow a considerable amount of “freedom” to their designers. Each of these standards has been defined based on a number of vendor specific implementations, in order to provide common inter-working procedures for cross-vendor communication. Thus, a lot of optional and redundant information is being exchanged during e-mail sessions, which is available to implement versatile covert channel mechanisms.This work exploits this possibility by presenting a simple but effective steganographic scheme that can be used to deploy robust secret communication through spam e-mails. This s…
Editorial Article for Open Journal of Antennas and Propagation
2013
Antennas help communicate the World. Antennas make possible that millions of people can watch the Champions League. Antennas allow the positioning of billions of vehicles around our planet. And they also allow handling vehicles through our neighbor planets. By propagating waves through antennas you can send huge amounts of data in milliseconds. Besides, you can also tell somebody that you love him or her. Antennas have allowed communicate the people in these places where cables cannot. But antennas are not only used for communication. Antennas can be used for heating food, for detecting people, for guiding vessels, for founding treasures, for monitoring breath, for harvesting energy and so …
Predictive models for energy saving in Wireless Sensor Networks
2011
ICT devices nowadays cannot disregard optimizations toward energy sustainability. Wireless Sensor Networks, in particular, are a representative class of a technology where special care must be given to energy saving, due to the typical scarcity and non-renewability of their energy sources, in order to enhance network lifetime. In our work we propose a novel approach that aims to adaptively control the sampling rate of wireless sensor nodes using prediction models, so that environmental phenomena can be consistently modeled while reducing the required amount of transmissions; the approach is tested on data available from a public dataset.
English writing instruction in Norwegian upper secondary schools
2015
AbstractThis article presents a study of current English writing instruction practices in a selection of Norwegian upper secondary schools and discusses how this draws upon ideas within genre-pedagogy. The data comprises individual and focus-group interviews, observation reports and some teaching material. The study shows that English teachers focus on teaching genre requirements and adjustment of language to task and context. However, despite agreeing on the importance of teaching how to write specific text-types and to adjust to the situation at hand, there seems to be different opinions about how detailed instruction should be. Some teachers fear that too explicit instruction may hinder …
Statistical Reconstruction of Microstructures Using Entropic Descriptors
2018
We report a multiscale approach of broad applicability to stochastic reconstruction of multiphase materials, including porous ones. The approach devised uses an optimization method, such as the simulated annealing (SA) and the so-called entropic descriptors (EDs). For a binary pattern, they quantify spatial inhomogeneity or statistical complexity at discrete length-scales. The EDs extract dissimilar structural information to that given by two-point correlation functions (CFs). Within the SA, we use an appropriate cost function consisting of EDs or comprised of EDs and CFs. It was found that the stochastic reconstruction is computationally efficient when we begin with a preliminary synthetic…
Bremsstrahlung from a repulsive potential: attosecond pulse generation
2008
The collision of an electron against a repulsive potential in the presence of a laser field is investigated. It is found that a sufficiently strong laser field forces the electron to remain in the neighbourhood of the repulsive potential causing bremsstrahlung. By appropriately filtering the emitted signal, an electron in the presence of a repulsive potential is capable of generating attosecond pulses.
