Exploratory learning structures in artificial cognitive systems

The major goal of the COSPAL project is to develop an artificial cognitive system architecture, with the ability to autonomously extend its capabilities. Exploratory learning is one strategy that allows an extension of competences as provided by the environment of the system. Whereas classical learning methods aim at best for a parametric generalization, i.e., concluding from a number of samples of a problem class to the problem class itself, exploration aims at applying acquired competences to a new problem class, and to apply generalization on a conceptual level, resulting in new models. Incremental or online learning is a crucial requirement to perform exploratory learning.In the COSPAL project, we mainly investigate reinforcement-type learning methods for exploratory learning, and in this paper we focus on the organization of cognitive systems for efficient operation. Learning is used over the entire system. It is organized in the form of four nested loops, where the outermost loop reflects the user-reinforcement-feedback loop, the intermediate two loops switch between different solution modes at symbolic respectively sub-symbolic level, and the innermost loop performs the acquired competences in terms of perception–action cycles. We present a system diagram which explains this process in more detail.We discuss the learning strategy in terms of learning scenarios provided by the user. This interaction between user (’teacher’) and system is a major difference to classical robotics systems, where the system designer places his world model into the system. We believe that this is the key to extendable robust system behavior and successful interaction of humans and artificial cognitive systems.We furthermore address the issue of bootstrapping the system, and, in particular, the visual recognition module. We give some more in-depth details about our recognition method and how feedback from higher levels is implemented. The described system is however work in progress and no final results are available yet. The available preliminary results that we have achieved so far, clearly point towards a successful proof of the architecture concept.     

Facial expression recognition system based on rigid and non-rigid motion separation and 3D pose estimation

This study presents a facial expression recognition system which separates the non-rigid facial expression from the rigid head rotation and estimates the 3D rigid head rotation angle in real time. The extracted trajectories of the feature points contain both rigid head motion components and non-rigid facial expression motion components. A 3D virtual face model is used to obtain accurate estimation of the head rotation angle such that the non-rigid motion components can be precisely separated to enhance the facial expression recognition performance. The separation performance of the proposed system is further improved through the use of a restoration mechanism designed to recover feature points lost during large pan rotations. Having separated the rigid and non-rigid motions, hidden Markov models (HMMs) are employed to recognize a prescribed set of facial expressions defined in terms of facial action coding system (FACS) action units (AUs).     

冲击作用下碳纤维混凝土的力敏性试验研究

碳纤维混凝土(CFC)具有良好的力敏特性,能制成传感器用于混凝土结构的状态监测.利用钢球自由落体撞击圆柱形试样,进行了老化前后和不同撞击高度的试验,并分析了各因素对试样力敏性的影响.试验结果表明:试样的电阻变化对冲击作用响应快;老化前的试样在承载较小时,试样处于弹性区,电阻随压力增大而减小,承载较大时,试样进入弹塑性区,电阻随压力增大而增大;老化后的试样,承载即进入弹塑性区.     

投影深度向量分解融合PEMS的视角不变人体动作识别

针对摄像机内部参数的不确定性和投影平面选择难的问题,提出一种新的投影深度算法用于视角不变的动作识别,该算法采用对称镜面提取平面(PEMS)策略,有效解决了投影平面选择难的问题。首先通过摄像机组观察获得3D动作姿势,然后运用PEMS策略从场景中提取平面,相对于提取平面估计身体点的投影深度,最后使用这个信息进行动作识别。该算法的核心是投影平面的提取和投影深度组成向量的求解。利用本文算法在CMU MoCap数据集、TUM数据集和多视图IXMAS数据集上进行测试,精度可分别高达94%、91%和90%,且在较少动作实例情况下,仍然能够准确定义新动作。比较表明,本文算法的人体动作识别性能明显优于其他几种较新的算法。     

Investigating haptic distance-to-break using linear and nonlinear materials in a simulated minimally invasive surgery task

Accurate detection of mediated haptic information in minimally invasive surgery (MIS) is critical for applying appropriate force magnitudes onto soft tissue with the aim of minimising tissue trauma. Force perception in MIS is a dynamic process, with surgeons’ administration of force into tissue revealing information about the remote surgical site which further informs the surgeons’ haptic interactions. The relationship between applied force and material deformation rate provides biomechanical information specifying the deformation distance remaining until a tissue will fail: which is termed distance-to-break (DTB). The current study demonstrates that observers can detect DTB while deforming simulated tissues and stop before reaching the tissues’ failure points. The design of training simulators, control devices and automated robotic systems for applications outside of MIS is discussed.

Practitioner Summary: In MIS, haptic information is critical for applying appropriate forces onto soft tissue to minimise tissue trauma. Observers used force information to detect how far they could deform a virtual tissue before it would break. The design of training simulators, control devices and automated robotic systems is discussed.     

基于3D-CNN的暴力行为检测

大量的研究行为识别方法集中在检测简单的动作,如：步行,慢跑或者跳跃等;针对于打斗或者动作复杂的攻击性行为则研究较少;而这些研究在某些监控场景下非常有用,如：监狱,自助银行,商场等. 传统的暴力行为识别研究方法主要利用先验知识来手动设计特征,而本文提出了一种基于3D-CNN结构的暴力检测方法,通过三维深度神经网络直接对输入进行操作,能够很好的提取暴力行为的时空特征信息,从而进行检测. 从实验结果可以看出,本文方法能较好地识别出暴力行为,准确率要高于人工设计特征的方法.
