Journal of System Simulation

Abstract: A time-varying RBF neural network with time-varying properties is firstly proposed, and its approximation theorem is obtained. For a class of nonlinear systems with non-parametric time-varying uncertainties, the proposed time-varying RBF neural network is used to approximate the time-varying uncertainties, and the controller is designed by making use of Lyapunov stability theory and adaptive iterative learning control techniques. We obtain the stability theorem of the designed controller. The simulation results verify the effectiveness of the time-varying neural network and the correctness of the controller design scheme.

Text Augmentation For Semantic Frame Induction And Parsing, Saba Anwar, Artem Shelmanov, Nikolay Arefyev, Alexander Panchenko, Chris Biemann

Natural Language Processing Faculty Publications

Semantic frames are formal structures describing situations, actions or events, e.g., Commerce buy, Kidnapping, or Exchange. Each frame provides a set of frame elements or semantic roles corresponding to participants of the situation and lexical units (LUs)—words and phrases that can evoke this particular frame in texts. For example, for the frame Kidnapping, two key roles are Perpetrator and the Victim, and this frame can be evoked with lexical units abduct, kidnap, or snatcher. While formally sound, the scarce availability of semantic frame resources and their limited lexical coverage hinders the wider adoption of frame semantics across languages and domains. …

In this paper, we describe a spoken Arabic dialect identification (ADI) model for Arabic that consistently outperforms previously published results on two benchmark datasets: ADI-5 and ADI-17. We explore two architectural variations: ResNet and ECAPA-TDNN, coupled with two types of acoustic features: MFCCs and features exratected from the pre-trained self-supervised model UniSpeech-SAT Large, as well as a fusion of all four variants. We find that individually, ECAPA-TDNN network outperforms ResNet, and models with UniSpeech-SAT features outperform models with MFCCs by a large margin. Furthermore, a fusion of all four variants consistently outperforms individual models. Our best models outperform previously reported …

Improving Human-Automation Collaboration In Motion Planning, Torin J. Adamson

Computer Science ETDs

Human-automation collaboration is becoming a part of everyday life as AI helps us drive, make decisions, and solve a variety of other tasks. However, safe and effective collaboration systems depend on factors in trust, communication, and more. Existing studies to explore these are typically carried out in laboratory settings, providing robust data under tight environmental control. However, human behavior evolves over time, driven by external factors that cannot be fully captured in single participation sessions. These factors form the "human context", contextualizing the behavioral data for a more complete understanding. In this thesis, video game adaptations upon conventional subject studies …


Ai As A License Review Assistant, Nat Gustafson-Sundell 2023 Minnesota State University, Mankato

Ai As A License Review Assistant, Nat Gustafson-Sundell

Library Services Publications

I will present the steps we have taken to develop a prototype AI assistant for license review. I’ll explain our criteria for the selection of an AI tool for this project. We reviewed ChatGPT, Claude 2, Bard, and PDF readers. My goal was to develop an initial prototype in a Jupyter Notebook environment so I could easily re-load context information, including a license checklist, but I’ll explain why I revised this goal, instead to linger over license review interactions with ChatBots. I’ll discuss early results, demonstrate example license review interactions, and outline my next steps.
