Testing selected optimal descriptors with artificial neural networks

2013

Eleven properties have been modeled with the objective of checking the importance for model purposes of mixed descriptors made of empirical parameters, molecular connectivity indices and random numbers. The mixed descriptors with random indices have a descriptive character which is satisfactorily confirmed by the leave-one-out method of statistical analysis. The introduction of a partition of the set of compounds into training and evaluation sets decreases drastically the probability to find a mixed descriptor with random indices with good model quality. Two properties, the magnetic susceptibility and the elutropic values, insist on having optimal descriptors with random indices. The overal…

An Encrypted Traffic Classification Framework Based on Convolutional Neural Networks and Stacked Autoencoders

2020

In recent years, deep learning-based encrypted traffic classification has proven to be effective; especially, using neural networks to extract features from raw traffic to classify encrypted traffic. However, most of the neural networks need a fixed-sized input, so that the raw traffic need to be trimmed. This will cause the loss of some information; for example, we do not know the number of packets in a session. To solve these problems, a framework, which implements both a convolutional neural network (CNN) and a stacked autoencoder (SAE), is proposed in this paper. This framework uses a CNN to extract high-level features from raw network traffic and uses an SAE to encode the 26 statistica…

A Neural Architecture for 3D Segmentation

2003

An original neural scheme for segmentation of range data is presented, which is part of a more general 3D vision system for robotic applications. The entire process relies on a neural architecture aimed to perform first order image irradiance analysis, that is local estimation of magnitude and orientation of the image irradiance gradient.

“With a little help from my friends”: Orthographic influences in spoken word recognition

2013

Resume Dans la presente etude, une tâche de decision lexicale auditive a ete utilisee avec des mots consistants (dans la direction phonie-graphie) ayant beaucoup, ou au contraire, peu « d’amis » au sein de leur voisinage phonologique. Les mots ayant beaucoup d’amis ont conduit a des temps de decision de lexicalite plus courts que ceux en ayant peu. Ce resultat est en accord avec l’hypothese selon laquelle l’orthographe faconne la perception des mots entendus du fait d’une restructuration des representations phonologiques par les connaissances orthographiques.

Simulating Actions with the Associative Self-Organizing Map

2013

We present a system that can learn to represent actions as well as to internally simulate the likely continuation of their initial parts. The method we propose is based on the Associative Self Organizing Map (A-SOM), a variant of the Self Organizing Map. By emulating the way the human brain is thought to perform pattern recognition tasks, the A- SOM learns to associate its activity with di erent inputs over time, where inputs are observations of other's actions. Once the A-SOM has learnt to recognize actions, it uses this learning to predict the continuation of an observed initial movement of an agent, in this way reading its intentions. We evaluate the system's ability to simulate actions …

Asynchronous L1 control of delayed switched positive systems with mode-dependent average dwell time

2014

Abstract This paper investigates the stability and asynchronous L 1 control problems for a class of switched positive linear systems (SPLSs) with time-varying delays by using the mode-dependent average dwell time (MDADT) approach. By allowing the co-positive type Lyapunov–Krasovskii functional to increase during the running time of active subsystems, a new stability criterion for the underlying system with MDADT is first derived. Then, the obtained results are extended to study the issue of asynchronous L 1 control, where “asynchronous” means that the switching of the controllers has a lag with respect to that of system modes. Sufficient conditions are provided to guarantee that the resulti…

Stabilization of positive switched systems with time-varying delays under asynchronous switching

2014

Published version of an article in the journal: International Journal of Control, Automation and Systems. Also available from the publisher at: http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/s12555-013-0486-x This paper investigates the state feedback stabilization problem for a class of positive switched systems with time-varying delays under asynchronous switching in the frameworks of continuous-time and discrete-time dynamics. The so-called asynchronous switching means that the switches between the candidate controllers and system modes are asynchronous. By constructing an appropriate co-positive type Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional and further allowing the functional to increase during the running time of ac…

Integration of fuzzy logic and image analysis for the detection of gullies in the Calhoun Critical Zone Observatory using airborne LiDAR data

2017

Abstract The entire Piedmont of the Southeastern United States, where the Calhoun Critical Zone Observatory (CCZO) is located, experienced one of the most severe erosive events of the last two centuries. Forested areas were cleared to cultivate cotton, tobacco, and other crops during the nineteenth and early twentieth century and these land use changes, together with intense rainfalls, initiated deep gullying. An accurate mapping of these landforms is important since, despite some gully stabilization and reforestation efforts, gullies are still major contributors of sediment to streams. Mapping gullies in the CCZO area is hindered by the presence of dense canopy, which precludes the identif…

Gaze position reveals impaired attentional shift during visual word recognition in dysfluent readers

2014

Effects reflecting serial within-word processing are frequently found in pseudo- and non-word recognition tasks not only among fluent, but especially among dyslexic readers. However, the time course and locus of these serial within-word processing effects in the cognitive hierarchy (i.e., orthographic, phonological, lexical) have remained elusive. We studied whether a subject’s eye movements during a lexical decision task would provide information about the temporal dynamics of serial within-word processing. We assumed that if there is serial within-word processing proceeding from left to right, items with informative beginnings would attract the gaze position and (micro-)saccadic eye movem…
