Book Dynamic Neural Networks for Robot Systems  Data Driven and Model Based Applications

Download or read book Dynamic Neural Networks for Robot Systems Data Driven and Model Based Applications written by Long Jin and published by Frontiers Media SA. This book was released on 2024-07-24 with total page 301 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Neural network control has been a research hotspot in academic fields due to the strong ability of computation. One of its wildly applied fields is robotics. In recent years, plenty of researchers have devised different types of dynamic neural network (DNN) to address complex control issues in robotics fields in reality. Redundant manipulators are no doubt indispensable devices in industrial production. There are various works on the redundancy resolution of redundant manipulators in performing a given task with the manipulator model information known. However, it becomes knotty for researchers to precisely control redundant manipulators with unknown model to complete a cyclic-motion generation CMG task, to some extent. It is worthwhile to investigate the data-driven scheme and the corresponding novel dynamic neural network (DNN), which exploits learning and control simultaneously. Therefore, it is of great significance to further research the special control features and solve challenging issues to improve control performance from several perspectives, such as accuracy, robustness, and solving speed.

Book Computational Perception for Multi modal Document Understanding

Download or read book Computational Perception for Multi modal Document Understanding written by Zoya Bylinskii and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Multimodal documents occur in a variety of forms, as graphs in technical reports, diagrams in textbooks, and graphic designs in bulletins. Humans can efficiently process the visual and textual information contained within to make decisions on topics including business, healthcare, and science. Building the computational tools to understand multimodal documents can have important applications for web search, information retrieval, captioning and summarization, and automated design. This thesis makes contributions on two fronts: (i) to the development of data collection methods for measuring how humans perceive multimodal documents (i.e., where they look, what they find important), and (ii) to the development of computer vision tools for automatically parsing and making predictions about multimodal documents (i.e., the subject matter they are about). Specifically, the crowdsourced attention data captured from our novel user interfaces is used to train neural network models to predict where people look in graphic designs and information visualizations, with demonstrated applications to thumbnailing, design retargeting, and interactive feedback within graphic design tools. Separately, our models for detecting visual elements and parsing text elements in infographics (information graphics) are used for topic prediction and to present a system for automatic summarization. This thesis makes contributions at the interface of human and computer vision, with applications to human-computer interfaces and design.
