Operational Impact

This project considers the operational impact of Autonomous Vehicles by creating a corridor using the latest network available. The behaviour of these vehicles entering the corridor is monitored at the macroscopic level by modifying the data which can be extracted from the vehicle. This data is made to learn using machine learning called the Time Series Neural Network and the data is used as a parameter to make the vehicles Autonomous. The project resolves the location, develops and demonstrates the collision avoidance of the vehicles using Artificial Intelligence. Autonomous means the vehicles will be able to learn to act accordingly without human intervention

AbstractThe last decade has witnessed important advancements in the field of computer vision and scene understanding, enabling applications such us autonomous vehicles. Radar is a commonly adopted sensor in automotive industry, but its suitability to machine learning techniques still remains an open question. In this work, we propose a neural network (NN) based solution to efficiently process radar data. We introduce RadarPCNN, an architecture specifically designed for performing semantic segmentation on radar point clouds. It uses PointNet$$++$$ + + as a building-block—enhancing the sampling stage with mean-shift—and an attention mechanism to fuse information. Additionally, we propose a machine learning radar pre-processing module that confers the network the ability to learn from radar features. We show that our solutions are effective, yielding superior performance than the state-of-the-art.

Abstract: Vehicle positioning and classification is a vital technology in intelligent transportation and self-driving cars. This paper describes the experimentation for the classification of vehicle images by artificial vision using Keras and TensorFlow to construct a deep neural network model, Python modules, as well as a machine learning algorithm. Image classification finds its suitability in applications ranging from medical diagnostics to autonomous vehicles. The existing architectures are computationally exhaustive, complex, and less accurate. The outcomes are used to assess the best camera location for filming, the vehicular traffic to determine the highway occupancy. An accurate, simple, and hardware-efficient architecture is required to be developed for image classification.

<div>Tailoring the structure and chemistry of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) enables the manipulation of their adsorption properties to suit specific energy and environmental applications. As there are millions of possible MOFs (with tens of thousands already synthesized), molecular simulation, such as grand canonical Monte Carlo (GCMC), has frequently been used to rapidly evaluate the adsorption performance of a large set of MOFs. This allows subsequent experiments to focus only on a small subset of the most promising MOFs. In many instances, however, even molecular simulation becomes prohibitively time consuming, underscoring the need for alternative screening methods, such as machine learning, to precede molecular simulation efforts. In this study, as a proof of concept, we trained a neural network as the first example of a machine learning model capable of predicting full adsorption isotherms of different molecules not included in the training of the model. To achieve this, we trained our neural network only on alchemical species, represented only by their geometry and force field parameters, and used this neural network to predict the loadings of real adsorbates. We focused on predicting room temperature adsorption of small (one- and two-atom) molecules relevant to chemical separations. Namely, argon, krypton, xenon, methane, ethane, and nitrogen. However, we also observed surprisingly promising predictions for more complex molecules, whose properties are outside the range spanned by the alchemical adsorbates. Prediction accuracies suitable for large-scale screening were achieved using simple MOF (e.g. geometric properties and chemical moieties), and adsorbate (e.g. forcefield parameters and geometry) descriptors. Our results illustrate a new philosophy of training that opens the path towards development of machine learning models that can predict the adsorption loading of any new adsorbate at any new operating conditions in any new MOF.</div>

Artery Disease

Background: Coronary artery disease (CAD) is an important cause of mortality and morbidity globally. Objective : The early prediction of the CAD would be valuable in identifying individuals at risk, and in focusing resources on its prevention. In this paper, we aimed to establish a diagnostic model to predict CAD by using three approaches of ANN (pattern recognition-ANN, LVQ-ANN, and competitive ANN). Methods: One promising method for early prediction of disease based on risk factors is machine learning. Among different machine learning algorithms, the artificial neural network (ANN) algo-rithms have been applied widely in medicine and a variety of real-world classifications. ANN is a non-linear computational model, that is inspired by the human brain to analyze and process complex datasets. Results: Different methods of ANN that are investigated in this paper indicates in both pattern recognition ANN and LVQ-ANN methods, the predictions of Angiography+ class have high accuracy. Moreover, in CNN the correlations between the individuals in cluster ”c” with the class of Angiography+ is strongly high. This accuracy indicates the significant difference among some of the input features in Angiography+ class and the other two output classes. A comparison among the chosen weights in these three methods in separating control class and Angiography+ shows that hs-CRP, FSG, and WBC are the most substantial excitatory weights in recognizing the Angiography+ individuals although, HDL-C and MCH are determined as inhibitory weights. Furthermore, the effect of decomposition of a multi-class problem to a set of binary classes and random sampling on the accuracy of the diagnostic model is investigated. Conclusion : This study confirms that pattern recognition-ANN had the most accuracy of performance among different methods of ANN. That’s due to the back-propagation procedure of the process in which the network classify input variables based on labeled classes. The results of binarization show that decomposition of the multi-class set to binary sets could achieve higher accuracy.

BACKGROUND Applications of machine learning (ML) on health care can have a great impact on people’s lives. At the same time, medical data is usually big, requiring a significant amount of computational resources. Although it might not be a problem for wide-adoption of ML tools in developed nations, availability of computational resource can very well be limited in third-world nations and on mobile devices. This can prevent many people from benefiting of the advancement in ML applications for healthcare. OBJECTIVE In this paper we explored three methods to increase computational efficiency of either recurrent neural net-work(RNN) or feedforward (deep) neural network (DNN) while not compromising its accuracy. We used in-patient mortality prediction as our case analysis upon intensive care dataset. METHODS We reduced the size of RNN and DNN by applying pruning of “unused” neurons. Additionally, we modified the RNN structure by adding a hidden-layer to the RNN cell but reduce the total number of recurrent layers to accomplish a reduction of total parameters in the network. Finally, we implemented quantization on DNN—forcing the weights to be 8-bits instead of 32-bits. RESULTS We found that all methods increased implementation efficiency–including training speed, memory size and inference speed–without reducing the accuracy of mortality prediction. CONCLUSIONS This improvements allow the implementation of sophisticated NN algorithms on devices with lower computational resources.

AbstractWe study the approximation of backward stochastic differential equations (BSDEs for short) with a constraint on the gains process. We first discretize the constraint by applying a so-called facelift operator at times of a grid. We show that this discretely constrained BSDE converges to the continuously constrained one as the mesh grid converges to zero. We then focus on the approximation of the discretely constrained BSDE. For that we adopt a machine learning approach. We show that the facelift can be approximated by an optimization problem over a class of neural networks under constraints on the neural network and its derivative. We then derive an algorithm converging to the discretely constrained BSDE as the number of neurons goes to infinity. We end by numerical experiments.

AbstractThis paper reviews recent research works in infant cry signal analysis and classification tasks. A broad range of literatures are reviewed mainly from the aspects of data acquisition, cross domain signal processing techniques, and machine learning classification methods. We introduce pre-processing approaches and describe a diversity of features such as MFCC, spectrogram, and fundamental frequency, etc. Both acoustic features and prosodic features extracted from different domains can discriminate frame-based signals from one another and can be used to train machine learning classifiers. Together with traditional machine learning classifiers such as KNN, SVM, and GMM, newly developed neural network architectures such as CNN and RNN are applied in infant cry research. We present some significant experimental results on pathological cry identification, cry reason classification, and cry sound detection with some typical databases. This survey systematically studies the previous research in all relevant areas of infant cry and provides an insight on the current cutting-edge works in infant cry signal analysis and classification. We also propose future research directions in data processing, feature extraction, and neural network classification fields to better understand, interpret, and process infant cry signals.
