Refitting Solutions Promoted by $$\ell _{12}$$ Sparse Analysis Regularizations with Block Penalties
2019
International audience; In inverse problems, the use of an l(12) analysis regularizer induces a bias in the estimated solution. We propose a general refitting framework for removing this artifact while keeping information of interest contained in the biased solution. This is done through the use of refitting block penalties that only act on the co-support of the estimation. Based on an analysis of related works in the literature, we propose a new penalty that is well suited for refitting purposes. We also present an efficient algorithmic method to obtain the refitted solution along with the original (biased) solution for any convex refitting block penalty. Experiments illustrate the good be…
Online detection and removal of eye blink artifacts from electroencephalogram
2021
Abstract The most prominent type of artifact contaminating electroencephalogram (EEG) signals are the eye blink (EB) artifacts, which could potentially lead to misinterpretation of the EEG signal. Online identification and elimination of eye blink artifacts are crucial in applications such a Brain-Computer Interfaces (BCI), neurofeedback, and epilepsy diagnosis. In this paper, algorithms that combine unsupervised eye blink artifact detection (eADA) with modified Empirical Mode Decomposition (FastEMD) and Canonical Correlation Analysis (CCA) are proposed, i.e., FastEMD-CCA2 and FastCCA, to automatically identify eye blink artifacts and remove them in an online setting. The average accuracy, …
Unsupervised Eye Blink Artifact Identification in Electroencephalogram
2018
International audience; The most prominent type of artifact contaminating electroencephalogram (EEG) signals is the eye blink (EB) artifact. Hence, EB artifact detection is one of the most crucial pre-processing step in EEG signal processing before this artifact can be removed. In this work, an approach that identifies EB artifacts without human supervision and automated varying threshold setting is proposed and evaluated. The algorithm functions on the basis of correlation between two EEG electrodes, Fp1 and Fp2, followed by EB artifact threshold determination utilizing the amplitude displacement from the mean. The proposed approach is validated and evaluated in terms of accuracy and error…
An offline/real-time artifact rejection strategy to improve the classification of multi-channel evoked potentials
2008
The primary goal of this paper is to improve the classification of multi-channel evoked potentials (EPs) by introducing a temporal domain artifact detection strategy and using this strategy to (a) evaluate how the performance of classifiers is affected by artifacts and (b) show how the performance can be improved by detecting and rejecting artifacts in offline and real-time classification experiments. Using a pattern recognition approach, an artifact is defined in this study as any signal that may lead to inaccurate classifier parameter estimation and inaccurate testing. The temporal domain artifact detection tests include: a within-channel standard deviation (STD) test that can detect sign…
Knowledge Acquisition in Conceptual Ontological Artificial Intelligence System
2009
The paper deals with active knowledge acquisition based on dialogue between AI system and its user. Presented method uses Conceptual Ontological Object Orientated System (COOS) to distinguish differences between concepts and to unequivocally process the input stream. In case of concepts, that do not exist in the system yet, adequate algorithms are being used to position them in ontological core. Separate concepts differ in attributes values or in sets of direct connections with other concepts. The communication aspect of the system deliver information that allow generating proper interpretation for userpsilas statement.
Complexity reduction in efficient prototype-based classification

Corrigendum to three papers that deal with “Anti”-Bayesian Pattern Recognition [Pattern Recognition]
2014
In the papers 1 (Thomas and Oommen, 2013), 2 (Oommen and Thomas, 2014) and 3 (Thomas and Oommen, 2013), and their associated conference versions cited in those papers, we had introduced a new method of so-called "Anti"-Bayesian Pattern Recognition (PR) which achieved the classification using only a few (sometimes as few as two) points distant from the mean. While the PR strategy, in and of itself, is accurate, the claim that it was based on the Order Statistics (OS) of the distributions of the features is not. The PR and classification results are rather founded on the symmetric quantiles and not on the symmetric OSs. This brief paper corrects the flawed claim presented in those papers. Hig…
Conception d'architectures compactes pour la détection spatiotemporelle d'actions en temps réel
2022
This thesis tackles the spatiotemporal action detection problem from an online, efficient, and real-time processing point of view. In the last decade, the explosive growth of video content has driven a broad range of application demands for automating human action understanding. Aside from accurate detection, vast sensing scenarios in the real-world also mandate incremental, instantaneous processing of scenes under restricted computational budgets. However, current research and related detection frameworks are incapable of simultaneously fulfilling the above criteria. The main challenge lies in their heavy architectural designs and detection pipelines to extract pertinent spatial and tempor…
DeepEva: A deep neural network architecture for assessing sentence complexity in Italian and English languages
2021
Abstract Automatic Text Complexity Evaluation (ATE) is a research field that aims at creating new methodologies to make autonomous the process of the text complexity evaluation, that is the study of the text-linguistic features (e.g., lexical, syntactical, morphological) to measure the grade of comprehensibility of a text. ATE can affect positively several different contexts such as Finance, Health, and Education. Moreover, it can support the research on Automatic Text Simplification (ATS), a research area that deals with the study of new methods for transforming a text by changing its lexicon and structure to meet specific reader needs. In this paper, we illustrate an ATE approach named De…
An ontology for cognitive mimetics
2018
AI and autonomous systems are intended to replace people in several jobs. People have worked in these jobs being able to execute the required information processing. This implies that new technical artefacts must be able to perform equitably effective information processing. Thus, it makes sense to develop the analysis of human information processing in designing intelligent systems. This approach has been termed cognitive mimetics. This paper studies how it would be practical to gain knowledge about human information processing and organize this knowledge using ontologies.
