Active Information Retrieval, Tommi Jaakkola, Hava Siegelmann
Active Information Retrieval, Tommi Jaakkola, Hava Siegelmann
Hava Siegelmann
In classical large information retrieval systems, the system responds to a user initiated query with a list of results ranked by relevance. The users may further refine their query as needed. This process may result in a lengthy correspondence without conclusion. We propose an alternative active learning approach, where the system responds to the initial user’s query by successively probing the user for distinctions at multiple levels of abstraction. The system’s initiated queries are optimized for speedy recovery and the user is permitted to respond with multiple selections or may reject the query. The information is in each case unambiguously …

Curtis Dyreson
This paper presents the METAXPath data model and query language. METAXPath extends XPath with support for XML metadata. XPath is a specification language for locations in an XML document it serves as the basis for XML query languages like XSLT and the XML Query Algebra.
The METAXPath data model is a nested XPath tree. Each level of metadata induces a new level of nesting. The data model separates metadata and data into different data spaces, supports meta-metadata and enables sharing of metadata common to a group of nodes without duplication. The METAXPath query language has a level shift operator to …

Developing Haptic And Visual Perceptual Categories For Reaching And Grasping With A Humanoid Robot, Jefferson Coelho, Justus Piater, Roderic Grupen
Roderic Grupen
Properties of the human embodiment sensorimotor apparatus and neurological structure participate directly in the growth and development of cognitive processes against enormous worst case complexity. It is our position that relationships between morphology and perception over time lead to incerasingly comprehensive models that describe the agent's relationship to the world.We are applying insight derived from neuroscience, neurology, and developmental psychology to the design of advanced robot architectures. To investigate developmental processes, we have begun to approximate the human sensorimotor configuration and to engage sensory and motor subsystems in developmental sequences. Many such sequences have been documented in studies of infant …

Verifying Properties Of Neural Networks, Pedro Rodriques, J. Félix Costa, Hava Siegelmann
Verifying Properties Of Neural Networks, Pedro Rodriques, J. Félix Costa, Hava Siegelmann
Hava Siegelmann
In the beginning of nineties, Hava Siegelmann proposed a new computational model, the Artificial Recurrent Neural Network (ARNN), and proved that it could perform hypercomputation. She also established the equivalence between the ARNN and other analog systems that support hypercomputation, launching the foundations of an alternative computational theory. In this paper we contribute to this alternative theory by exploring the use of formal methods in the verification of temporal properties of ARNNs. Based on the work of Bradfield in verification of temporal properties of infinite systems, we simplify his tableau system, keeping its expressive power, and show that it is …

Simulation Of Inviscid Multi-Species Plasma Flow, Alexandre Martin, Marcelo Reggio, Jean-Yves Trépanier
Simulation Of Inviscid Multi-Species Plasma Flow, Alexandre Martin, Marcelo Reggio, Jean-Yves Trépanier
Alexandre Martin
A multi-species solver for plasma at thermodynamical equilibrium is developed. A numerical scheme, based on Roe's, is implemented with some modification regarding the average quantities. A perfect gas treatment is carried out for validations, and a quasi-real gas treatment is also presented. The latter takes into account the changes in the composition of the gas caused by fluctuations in temperature and density.
Symbolic Dynamics And Computation In Model Gene Networks, R. Edwards, Hava Siegelmann, K. Aziza, L. Glass
Symbolic Dynamics And Computation In Model Gene Networks, R. Edwards, Hava Siegelmann, K. Aziza, L. Glass
Hava Siegelmann
We analyze a class of ordinary differential equations representing a simplified model of a genetic network. In this network, the model genes control the production rates of other genes by a logical function. The dynamics in these equations are represented by a directed graph on an n-dimensional hypercube (n-cube) in which each edge is directed in a unique orientation. The vertices of the n-cube correspond to orthants of state space, and the edges correspond to boundaries between adjacent orthants. The dynamics in these equations can be represented symbolically. Starting from a point on the boundary between neighboring orthants, the equation …

Erik G Learned-Miller
Assessment of normal and abnormal anatomical variability requires a coordinate system enabling inter-subject comparison. We present a binary minimum entropy criterion to assess affine and nonrigid transformations bringing a group of subject scans into alignment. This measure is a data-driven measure allowing the identification of an intrinsic coordinate system of a particular group of subjects. We assessed two statistical atlases derived from magnetic resonance imaging of newborn infants with gestational age ranging from 24 to 40 weeks. Over this age range major structural changes occur in the human brain and existing atlases are inadequate to capture the resulting anatomical variability. …
Color Eigenflows : Statistical Modeling Of Joint Color Changes, Erik G. Learned-Miller, Kinh Tieu
Color Eigenflows : Statistical Modeling Of Joint Color Changes, Erik G. Learned-Miller, Kinh Tieu
Erik G Learned-Miller
We develop a linear model of commonly observed joint color changes in images due to variation in lighting and certain non-geometric camera parameters. This is done by observing how all of the colors are mapped between two images of the same scene under various “real-world” lighting changes. We represent each instance of such a joint color mapping as a 3-D vector field in RGB color space. We show that the variance in these maps is well represented by a low dimensional linear subspace of these vector fields. We dub the principal components of this space the color eigenflows. When applied …

Roderic Grupen
Applications of multiple processors embedded in the systems involved with entertainment, informatics, climate control, communication, transportation, and food preparation are already commonplace. A network of these embedded processors presents application development challenges since the state space grows exponentially as new devices attach to the network. The programming model for such systems will need to change if reliable systems are to be realized. By observing information about sensorimotor activity, such systems can gather information useful to programming the network. Through such interaction, a network can build hierarchies of shareable computational structures for representing various activities. This application domain presents additional challenges …
Lighting Invariance Through Joint Color Change Models, Erik G. Learned-Miller, Kinh Tieu, Eric Grimson
Lighting Invariance Through Joint Color Change Models, Erik G. Learned-Miller, Kinh Tieu, Eric Grimson
Erik G Learned-Miller
In [9], we introduced a linear statistical model of joint color changes in images due to variation in lighting and certain non-geometric camera parameters. We did this by measuring the mappings of colors in one image of a scene to colors in another image of the same scene under different lighting conditions. In this paper, we extend our model in several ways and examine its applicability to several important problems in machine vision. The extensions to our model include incorporating a model of image noise and a prior on the color flows used to explain a particular image difference. In …
