Transport Map sampling with PGD model reduction for fast dynamical Bayesian data assimilation

The motivation of this work is to address real-time sequential inference of parameters with a full Bayesian formulation. First, the proper generalized decomposition (PGD) is used to reduce the computational evaluation of the posterior density in the online phase. Second, Transport Map sampling is used to build a deterministic coupling between a reference measure and the posterior measure. The determination of the transport maps involves the solution of a minimization problem. As the PGD model is quasi-analytical and under a variable separation form, the use of gradient and Hessian information speeds up the minimization algorithm. Eventually, uncertainty quantification on outputs of interest of the model can be easily performed due to the global feature of the PGD solution over all coordinate domains. Numerical examples highlight the performance of the method.     

基于深度学习的四旋翼无人机单目视觉避障方法

针对无人机避障问题，提出一种基于深度学习的四旋翼无人机单目视觉避障方法。首先通过目标检测框选出目标在图像中的位置，并通过计算目标选框上下边距的长度，以此来估量出障碍物到无人机之间的距离；然后通过协同计算机判断是否执行避障动作；最后使用基于Pixhawk搭建的飞行实验平台进行实验。实验结果表明，该方法可用于无人机低速飞行条件下避障。该方法所用到的传感器只有一块单目摄像头，而且相对于传统的主动式传感器避障方法，所占用无人机的体积大幅减小。该方法鲁棒性较好，能够准确识别不同姿态的人，实现对人避障。     

Optimal data-based binning for histograms and histogram-based probability density models

Histograms are convenient non-parametric density estimators, which continue to be used ubiquitously. Summary quantities estimated from histogram-based probability density models depend on the choice of the number of bins. We introduce a straightforward data-based method of determining the optimal number of bins in a uniform bin-width histogram. By assigning a multinomial likelihood and a non-informative prior, we derive the posterior probability for the number of bins in a piecewise-constant density model given the data. In addition, we estimate the mean and standard deviations of the resulting bin heights, examine the effects of small sample sizes and digitized data, and demonstrate the application to multi-dimensional histograms.     

无失效数据机载多余度EWIS可靠性研究

针对高可靠度机载多余度EWIS各组成部分寿命服从指数分布但参数未知的情况，提出采用无失效数据可靠度分析方法评估EWIS的可靠度水平。通过Monte-Carlo仿真方法对连接形式为“先并联、后串联”EWIS各组成部分寿命进行抽样，利用“最小最大值”方法获得系统寿命的抽样值，用概率纸检验法初步判断EWIS寿命是否服从威布尔分布，再用Pearson拟合优度检验法判断EWIS寿命是否服从威布尔分布。结合无故障飞行时间的样本值与EWIS寿命服从威布尔分布的假设，采用无失效数据分析方法评估EWIS的可靠度水平。研究方法对机载多余度EWIS无失效数据可靠度分析有一定的贡献。     

基于动态距离的模糊社区识别算法

社区识别技术是公共安全领域潜在危害行为预警预测和已发生危害行为追踪溯源的基础，针对传统社区识别算法将社区视作单一集合而无法描述社区主次成员的问题，提出一种基于动态距离的模糊社区识别算法。该算法将传统的单一社区结构划分为核心区域和边际区域，以边际区域来描述社区的模糊区间。该算法首先将网络设想为动态演变模型，网络中的任意节点均会与其他节点产生互动，互动将改变各节点间距离，距离也反过来影响互动。在阈值的界定下，受到多个社区吸引的节点被划分到边际区域，最终距离分布趋于稳定，各个社区结构得以显现。通过对比实验验证了CDFDD算法在社区识别上的有效性。

Visual detection and tracking with UAVs,following a mobile object

ABSTRACT

Conception and development of an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) capable of detecting, tracking and following a moving object with unknown dynamics is presented in this work, considering a human face as a case of study. Object detection is accomplished by a Haar cascade classifier. Once an object is detected, it is tracked with the help of a Kalman Filter (KF), and an estimation of the relative position with respect to the target is obtained. A linear controller is used to validate the proposed vision scheme and for regulating the aerial robot's position in order to keep a constant distance with respect to the mobile target, employing as well the extra available information from the embedded sensors. The proposed system was extensively tested in real-time experiments, through different conditions, using a commercial quadcopter connected via wireless to a ground station running under the Robot Operative System (ROS). The proposed overall strategy shows a good performance even under disadvantageous conditions as outdoor flight, being robust against illumination changes, image noise and the presence of other people in the scene.
