Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A dynamic data-driven application system (DDDAS) is a recently formalized architecture that integrates simulation with dynamically assimilated data, multiscale modeling and computation via completion of a two-way feedback loop between model execution and the data acquisition modules. The perception layer of DDDAS requires precise feature extraction from dynamic data, multi-scale (both spatial and temporal) data analysis and hierarchical sensor fusion, which are capable of real-time execution. This dissertation proposes hierarchical approaches that tackle different aspects of the perception layer of DDDAS, based on the concept of symbolic time series analysis (STSA). STSA is a nonlinear feature-extraction tool that is applied on dynamic data by constructing probabilistic finite state automata (PFSA) via symbolization based on an alphabet size. Along with proposing a supervised alphabet size selectionalgorithm, the dissertation develops optimal STSA algorithms that capture the texture of individual temporal data (by Generalized D-Markov machines) andthat of the causal cross-dependence (by xD-Markov machines) from one temporal data set to another with reduced dimensionality. The aforementioned patternsare aggregated to construct a spatio-temporal pattern network (STPN) from a sensor network and it is pruned via an information-theoretic approach for fault diagnosis in distributed systems. Finally, a hierarchical architecture named multiscale symbolic time series analysis (MSTSA) is formalized, where a semantic finite length learning-and-inferencing mechanism is stacked to capture the multi-timescalenature of DDDAS events in real time. In addition to extensive validation by complex simulation experiments, the proposed techniques have been applied on experimental data for early detection of Lean Blow out (LBO), and thermo-acoustic instability in combustors and the performance is compared with state-of-the-art results. A hierarchical framework is developed combining deep learning and STSA with the objective of autonomously tracking the temporal evolution of coherent structures that are distributed in the flame during combustion instability. MSTSA has been successfully implemented in real-time activity recognition from noisy sensor data for border surveillance scenarios. It is envisioned that the general contributions, made in this dissertation, will be useful for many other potential application areas in DDDAS paradigm, such as weather system causality understanding, smart grid and buildings, distributed energy systems, situation awareness in ISR (intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance) missions, material damage prediction and future ground and air transportation systems.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume offers an expansion of ideas presented at a recent conference convened to identify the major strategies and more promising practices for assessing technology. The authors -- representing government, business, and university sectors -- helped to set the boundaries of present technology assessment by offering perspectives from computer science, cognitive and military psychology, and education. Their work explores both the use of techniques to assess technology and the use of technology to facilitate the assessment process. The book's main purpose is to portray the state of the art in technology assessment and to provide conceptual options to help readers understand the power of technology. Technological innovation will continue to develop its own standards of practice and effectiveness. To the extent that these practices are empirically based, designers, supporters, and consumers will be given better information for their decisions.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Perceptual processes in humans and machines, investigated and simulated by means of the computational approach, are the subject matter of this volume. Researchers in artificial intelligence, pattern recognition, and psychology discuss aspects of vision, speech understanding, sensory-motor coordination, and their interplay with cognitive and behavioral functionalities. The papers adopt the computational approach as the basic research paradigm. Connectionist models, numerical and statistical techniques, symbolic (logic-based) formalisms, and hybrid representations provide the formal background to the research. Some of the papers were prepared for a workshop held in Trieste, Italy, in October 1992.

Download or read book Cognitive Multi agent Systems written by Mikuláš Hajduk and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-07-04 with total page 133 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book describes an approach to the multi-agent systems (MAS) design for applications of robotic soccer in the MiroSot category. The described MAS is designed for dynamic, quickly changing environments, in which not only the actions of our MAS are observed, but also those of the opposing MAS. It actively tries to affect the environment to score goals faster than the opposing MAS. Multi-agent systems (MAS) are mostly applied in the environments in which they exist and act without an opposing system. The book also describes strategies based on a supervisor that makes decisions depending on behavior prediction of the opposing MAS and the ball movement in the working place. A sophisticated distribution of tasks was designed for each agent to cooperate in order score goals as fast as possible. Simultaneously, these agents try, by permitted means, to prevent the enemy agents from scoring goals. The approach described is an excellent guide to the constantly evolving abilities of mobile robotics, both for real-world applications, such as cooperation of multiple robots in life-saving activities, and for the steadily developing applications of mobile robots in various robotic competitions (e.g. Robocup, etc.). The book provides readers with high-level knowledge on how to design strategies and how to implement such systems, and the ideas presented enable them to further refine the approach utilizing the latest hardware and use it in new systems implementations of sophisticated intelligent engineering.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Space vehicles have become increasingly complex in recent years, and the number of missions has multiplied as a result of extending frontiers in the exploration of our planetary system and the universe beyond. The advancement of automatic control in aerospace reflects these developments. Key areas covered in these proceedings include: the size and complexity of spacecrafts and the increasingly stringent performance requirements to be fulfilled in a harsh and unpredictable environment; the merger of space vehicles and airplanes into space planes to launch and retrieve payloads by reusable winged vehicles; and the demand to increase space automation and autonomy to reduce human involvement as much as possible in manned, man-tended and unmanned missions. This volume covers not only the newly evolving key technologies but also the classical issues of guidance, navigation and control.
