Multi-Agent Path Planning With Obstacle Penalty Factor, Xingyu Yan, Dayan Li, Niya Wang, Kaixiang Zhang, Jianlin Mao

Journal of System Simulation

Abstract: In light load environments, complex obstacle areas will exacerbate local conflicts between agents, leading to a decrease in path solving efficiency. This paper proposes a multi-agent path planning (MAPF) method with obstacle penalty factors in light load environments. First, in the low-level single machine planning process based on the conflict-based search (CBS) algorithm framework, by judging the distribution type of surrounding obstacles that are about to expand the agent's position, corresponding obstacle penalty factors are assigned to them; then, the penalty factors in the path planning process are accumulated and used as the heuristic value of single machine planning …

Human Action Recognition Based On Skeleton Edge Information Under Projection Subspace, Benyue Su, Peng Zhang, Bangguo Zhu, Mengjuan Guo, Min Sheng

Journal of System Simulation

Abstract: In recent years, human action recognition based on skeleton data has received a lot of attention in the fields of computer vision and human-computer interaction. Most of the existing methods focus on modeling the skeleton points in the original 3D coordinate space. However, skeleton points ignore the physical chain structure of the human body itself, which makes it difficult to portray the local correlation of human motion. In addition, due to the diversity of camera views, it is difficult to explore the comprehensive representation of actions in different views under the original point-based 3D space. In view of this, …

The magnetic flux density, no-load counter electromotive force (EMF), and other data are obtained according to Maxwell's equations. The nonlinear relationship between the structural parameters of the machine and output thrust is fitted by the DNN algorithm. Based on …

Spectralomics – Towards A Holistic Adaptation Of Label Free Spectroscopy, Hugh Byrne

Articles

Vibrational spectroscopy, largely based on infrared absorption and Raman scattering techniques, is much vaunted as a label free approach, delivering a high content, holistic characterisation of a sample, with demonstrable applications in a broad range of fields, from process analytical technologies and preclinical drug screening, to disease diagnostics, therapeutics, prognostics and personalised medicine. However, in the analysis of such complex systems, a trend has emerged in which spectral analysis is reduced to the identification of individual peaks, based on reference tables of assignments derived from literature, which are then interpreted as biomarkers. More sophisticated analysis attempts to unmix the spectrum …

Weakly Supervised Attention-Based Recognition Under Spectral, Turbulence, And Resource Variations, Kshitij Naresh Nikhal

Dissertations and Doctoral Documents, University of Nebraska-Lincoln, 2023–

While supervised optimization paradigms are ubiquitous across diverse recognition systems, the risk of over-fitting and increasing bias have limited their applicability.

This dissertation focuses on unsupervised learning—learning without precisely curated data—and argues that unsupervised learning methods can enable both discriminability and generalizability. Through the use of attention-based machine learning and advanced clustering, unsupervised methods are able to focus on fine-grained information in images without any explicit supervision. The dissertation introduces a domain-bridging framework for tasks like cross-spectrum matching and long-range recognition, utilizing intra-domain clustering and inter-domain matching to generate pseudo-labels. Additionally, a hash-based network is proposed to accelerate the search …

The task of math word problem (MWP) generation, which generates an MWP given an equation and relevant topic words, has increasingly attracted researchers’ attention. In this work, we introduce a simple memory retrieval module to search related training MWPs, which are used to augment the generation. To retrieve more relevant training data, we also propose a disentangled memory retrieval module based on the simple memory retrieval module. To this end, we first disentangle the training MWPs into logical description and scenario description and then record them in respective memory modules. Later, we use the given equation and topic words as …

Understanding The Impact Of Trade Policy Effect Uncertainty On Firm-Level Innovation Investment: A Deep Learning Approach, Daniel Chang, Nan Hu, Peng Liang, Morgan Swink

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

Integrating the real options perspective and resource dependence theory, this study examines how firms adjust their innovation investments to trade policy effect uncertainty (TPEU), a less studied type of firm specific, perceived environmental uncertainty in which managers have difficulty predicting how potential policy changes will affect business operations. To develop a text-based, context-dependent, time-varying measure of firm-level perceived TPEU, we apply Bidirectional Encoder Representations from Transformers (BERT), a state-of-the-art deep learning approach. We apply BERT to analyze the texts of mandatory Management Discussion and Analysis (MD&A) sections of annual reports for a sample of 22,669 firm-year observations from 3,181 unique …
