Intelligent and High-Performance Behavior Design of Autonomous Systems via Learning, Optimization and Control

Author(s): Sun, Liting | Advisor(s): Tomizuka, Masayoshi | Abstract: Nowadays, great societal demands have rapidly boosted the development of autonomous systems that densely interact with humans in many application domains, from manufacturing to transportation and from workplaces to daily lives. The shift from isolated working environments to human-dominated space requires autonomous systems to be empowered to handle not only environmental uncertainties such as external vibrations but also interaction uncertainties arising from human behavior which is in nature probabilistic, causal but not strictly rational, internally hierarchical and socially compliant.This dissertation is concerned with the design of intelligent and high-performance behavior of such autonomous systems, leveraging the strength from control, optimization, learning, and cognitive science. The work consists of two parts. In Part I, the problem of high-level hybrid human-machine behavior design is addressed. The goal is to achieve safe, efficient and human-like interaction with people. A framework based on the theory of mind, utility theories and imitation learning is proposed to efficiently represent and learn the complicated behavior of humans. Built upon that, machine behaviors at three different levels - the perceptual level, the reasoning level, and the action level - are designed via imitation learning, optimization, and online adaptation, allowing the system to interpret, reason and behave as human, particularly when a variety of uncertainties exist. Applications to autonomous driving are considered throughout Part I. Part II is concerned with the design of high-performance low-level individual machine behavior in the presence of model uncertainties and external disturbances. Advanced control laws based on adaptation, iterative learning and the internal structures of uncertainties/disturbances are developed to assure that the high-level interactive behaviors can be reliably executed. Applications on robot manipulators and high-precision motion systems are discussed in this part.
한국어 어휘 교육을 위한 단어 내용 구성

The purpose of this study is to organize and categorize the composition of word contents for Korean vocabulary education in systemic group. The results of this study are summarized as follows: Firstly, word contents for Korean vocabulary is subdivided based on word type and semantic relation. Particles and affixes are excluded according to Korean Language Curriculum, Secondly, vocabulary education based on word type is analyzed into Pure-Korean words education for fluent conversation, Sino-Koreans word for professional vocabulary expansion and Loanwords education which is on the rise due to diversification of cultural contacts. Lastly, In order to make it easier to understand the meaning of words, the vocabulary is organized by dividing it into synonym and antonymous relation(oppositive relation), polysemy and homonymous relation, hypernym and hyponym depending on the semantic relation. Therefore, it establishes the word contents structure in Korean education by linking the correlation that the vocabulary has.

Formality and informality in electronic communication

Electronic mails have nowadays become the most usual support to exchange information in professional and academic environments. A lot of research on this topic to date has focused on the linguistic characteristics of electronic communication and on the formal and informal features and the orality involved in this form of communication. Most of the studies have referred to group-based asynchronous communication. But the increasing use of e-mails today, even for the most important, confidential and formal purposes is tending to form a new sub-genre of letter-writing. This paper studies the formulae of etiquette and protocol used in e-mails for salutation, opening, pre-closing and closing, and other elements related to formality and provides new insights on these features. Our research is based on the analysis of a corpus of formal and informal messages in an academic environment.
Penerapan Metode Dark Channel Prior dalam Perancangan Perangkat Lunak Mereduksi Kabut

The image in the form of a photo is the one that is used to capture events or scenes that cannot be repeated to be remembered for a long time and it is not possible if the photo taken at a time when the weather is not supporting such a haze that will ruin the photo. The main things that become the main idea for creating software is to help users who don't have much time to take photos outside the room. Therefore, the software that will be designed can make it easier for photographers to reduce the haze that exist in the photo. This software uses the Dark Channel Prior method as a method used to reduce haze. Software design method using Prototype. Testing software using BlackBox. This software uses the C ++ programming language with Visual Studio 2012 application. The haze reduction software that has been designed can run as expected. For the next research can add some features and combine into two methods or three methods
‘Digital due process’: a need for online justice

Social media platforms have evolved into the ‘modern public square’—with all the legal complexities involved. Public discourse, free speech and global online crime prevention are all at present under extreme pressures, due—ironically—to both significant over-blocking and under-blocking by social media platforms. At the one end of the spectrum, user-generated content is far too often subject to robo-takedowns.1 At the other extreme, clearly criminal activities such as online child sexual abuse run rampant and is not blocked nearly enough throughout the world.2 These two extremes are to a great extent caused by an inadequate and unbalanced content moderation and legal architecture developed by the digital gatekeepers. Moreover, the manner in which the Internet’s so-called ‘attention merchants’ and ‘surveillance capitalists’ abuse personal privacy through the data-harvesting and micro-targeting of individuals who gather in the ‘modern public squares’ is of enormous public concern internationally.3 There is a clear and present need to ensure justice is done within the international digital community as evidenced by the public outcry on these fundamental issues as they play out on the world’s social media platforms. ‘Digital due process’ might form the basis of an online infrastructure to restore fundamental freedoms and support the rule of law in the digital world.

Unique Geometry and Texture from Corresponding Image Patches

We present a sufficient condition for recovering unique texture and viewpoints from unknown orthographic projections of a flat texture process. We show that four observations are sufficient in general, and we characterize the ambiguous cases. The results are applicable to shape from texture and texture-based structure from motion.
A Food Delivery Mobile Application in University Campus Based on Market Demand

Most of the public universities’ student in Malaysia do not have transportation, this causes them do not have the opportunity to enjoy the food outside their campus. Most of the food delivery system available in the market at the time being do not provide delivery services to most of the public university. Besides that, some of the food delivery system only provide delivery services with minimum amount ordered. This causes students who are unemployed or do not have extra income cannotafford this kind of food delivery service. Some of the students who possess transportation like car or motorcycle have to bear expensive petrol cost when they travel outside from the university campus just to enjoy their meal. Therefore, the purpose of this research is to develop a food delivery mobile application called “Dabao” to reduce the financial burden of students and at the same time allow them to enjoy variety of foods outside university campus. Students able to register themselves as a food hunter or food driver through Dabao application. Food driver can share their current location information through Dabao application to all the food hunters when they are dining in a restaurant. Food hunter can order meal from the food driver and able to track the food driver location in real time. Food driver will then deliver the food and collect payment from food hunter with a 20% delivery charges. As a result, students with transportation can choose to earn some side income by involving themselves in food delivery service to cover their petrol cost and students without transportation will be able to enjoy variety of food outside university campus. Based on the evaluation, students claimed that this mobile application is in demand and can be very useful to them. Keywords: Android, Food Delivery, Location Tracking, UKM, Usability Testing
Life in the epoch of changes: realities and prospects. School Principal's Outlook Potential

The academic and social experience accumulated over the years and decades of our society’s activity demonstrates the unique role of the headmaster as the first and principal organizer of the educational process, the teacher of the student youth, the parents and all employees of the institution. And that’s understandable. The headmaster is a person who the whole team is based on, who they follow and whose activity, as a tuning fork, sets the tone of the work of the whole school. He is not only the organizer of the educational process or the head of the business, but also the first teacher-advisor of the team. He is fully responsible for the state of work of the school as a whole, and most importantly – for the civic, spiritual, moral, patriotic charge with which teachers approach their pupils, and they, in turn, assimilate it and go into the world as independent and creative personalities. It is he who – confident, convinced, creative – conveys to the team his own worldview potential, accumulated in his time during his university studies, as well as in the process of gaining practical academic and civic experience. Therefore, it is quite understandable the need for a high ideological training of the director, the formation and constant updating of his political, spiritual, moral, aesthetic, etc. culture in general.
Isolated Vertices in Continuous-Time Quantum Walks on Dynamic Graphs

It was recently shown that continuous-time quantum walks on dynamic graphs, i.e., sequences of static graphs whose edges change at specific times, can implement a universal set of quantum gates. This result treated all isolated vertices as having self-loops, so they all evolved by a phase under the quantum walk. In this paper, we permit isolated vertices to be loopless or looped, and loopless isolated vertices do not evolve at all under the quantum walk. Using this distinction, we construct simpler dynamic graphs that implement the Pauli gates and a set of universal quantum gates consisting of the Hadamard, $T$, and controlled-not gates, and these gates are easily extended to multiqubit systems. For example, the $T$ gate is simplified from a sequence of six graphs to a single graph, and the number of vertices is reduced by a factor of 4. We also construct a generalized phase gate, of which $Z$, $S$, and $T$ are specific instances. Finally, we validate our implementations by numerically simulating a quantum circuit consisting of layers of one- and two-qubit gates, similar to those in recent quantum supremacy experiments, using a quantum walk.
역사과 교육실습생의 수업 실행과 교사양성과정에 대한 인식

This study aims to investigate the pre-service teachers’ teaching practice as well as their understanding of and suggestions for history teacher education. To do so, this study utilizes 184 student teachers’ self-reports on lesson plans and perception on teacher education programs in terms of on- and off-line surveys.Student-teacher’s practice has been analyzed in terms of three approaches; online-lecture approach, student-centered approach, and curriculum-reconstructive approach. The higher considering her own teaching goals and historical perspectives, the more centering on historical thinking approach and higher on her self-evaluation on practice. It needs to note that their dependance on internet lecture for own teaching as well as the lack of valid assessment criteria such as ''students’ understanding'' for own teaching performance.Results suggest for several improvement in teacher education programs as follows; First, student teachers need to establish a philosophy and perspective on history education, as well as concerns about what to teach and how to teach. Second, they need to have a learning opportunity for reflecting learning materials and methods as well as selection of learning goals and contents. Third, teacher education programs should provide the process of applying and reflecting the teaching-learning theory in student teaching.
The Darwin Is in the Details

Electronics can be defined as electromagnetic technology dealing with information, and meta-electronics as a field encompassing all the synergistic technologies in which electronics plays a dominant role. Examining the broad field corresponding to this definition we realize that its history starts some seventy years earlier than the customarily accepted birth of electronics, and, what is more significant, that electronics undergoes a true evolution. This new evolution creates rich, diverse structures similar to those created by the biological evolution. Like biology, electronics is non-teleological, which allows for its unlimited evolutionary development. We propose electronic analogies of all essential biological categories, at all levels: population, speciation, common ancestor, phenotype, extended phenotype, co-evolution, convergent evolution, evolutionary arms race, extinction and mass extinction, hierarchical levels, generative entrenchment, genes, alleles, genome, genetic pool, recombination, mutation, genetic drift, lateral gene transfer, etc. The evolutionary algorithm operating in electronics, like a Darwinian one, includes variation within a population of device models, heredity, natural (market) selection, and a form of selection based on aesthetics and fashion which resembles sexual selection. Algorithm is especially similar to artificial selection (domestication), thus possessing directionality in the variational part. Electronic development is orders of magnitude faster than biological, accelerated by that directionality and by other distinct, identifiable mechanisms. Speciation in electronics, as in biology, is best represented on a phylogenetic tree, which starts from a common ancestor (electric telegraph), but lately exhibits a unification trend. If continued, this trend may lead to the appearance of a common descendant absent in biology. Our analysis may explain emerging anti-social aspects of electronics and our conclusions add new urgency to recent concerns with unchecked development of Artificial Intelligence.
SVM Learning Rates for Data with Low Intrinsic Dimension

We derive improved regression and classification rates for support vector machines using Gaussian kernels under the assumption that the data has some low-dimensional intrinsic structure. Our notion of intrinsic dimension is defined by the box-counting dimension of the support of the data generating distribution. Under some standard regularity assumptions for regression and classification we prove learning rates, where we essentially substitute in some well-established learning rates the dimension of the ambient space with the box-counting dimension of the support of the data generating distribution. Furthermore, we show that a training validation approach for choosing the hyperparameters of an SVM in a data dependent way achieves the same rates adaptively, i.e. without knowledge on the data generating distribution, in particular without knowing the box-counting dimension of the support of the data generating distribution.
A Survey on Side Channel Attacks in Processor-Memory Chip Stack

Side channel attacks use the process information to compromise either the process, system, or relevant data. These attacks can also be used on the shared resources to perform cross exploits on other parts of a system. Throughout this paper, we discuss what side channel attacks are, how they are used, and how they can be prevented through the use of obfuscation techniques. To accomplish this, we introduce the findings of a number of relevant researchers. These include successful attacks on systems using novel variations of side channel attacks and preventative measures against these attacks. We also provide a rundown of Intel SGX. Intel SGX offers a safe way to run the code on a potentially compromised system. We show that SGX is also vulnerable to a number of different side channel attacks.

Computing an Invariant of a Linear Code

In this work we present an efficient algorithm that generates the leader codewords of a linear code in an incremental form. On the other hand, using the set of leader codewords we define a transformation that remains invariant only if the codes are equivalent which is used as a signature for checking the code equivalence problem. An upper bound on the weight of the codewords is imposed to this algorithm in order to get a smallest set that can be also used as a signature for the ‘Code Equivalence Problem’.
Differentiate Everything with a Reversible Programming Language

Reverse-mode automatic differentiation (AD) suffers from the issue of having too much space overhead to trace back intermediate computational states for back-propagation. The traditional method to trace back states is called checkpointing that stores intermediate states into a global stack and restore state through either stack pop or re-computing. The overhead of stack manipulations and re-computing makes the general purposed (not tensor-based) AD engines unable to meet many industrial needs. Instead of checkpointing, we propose to use reverse computing to trace back states by designing and implementing a reversible programming eDSL, where a program can be executed bi-directionally without implicit stack operations. The absence of implicit stack operations makes the program compatible with existing compiler features, including utilizing existing optimization passes and compiling the code as GPU kernels. We implement AD for sparse matrix operations and some machine learning applications to show that our framework has the state-of-the-art performance.
