Evolving Ensemble Fuzzy Classifier
The concept of ensemble learning offers a promising avenue in learning from
data streams under complex environments because it addresses the bias and
variance dilemma better than its single model counterpart and features a
reconfigurable structure, which is well suited to the given context. While
various extensions of ensemble learning for mining non-stationary data streams
can be found in the literature, most of them are crafted under a static base
classifier and revisits preceding samples in the sliding window for a
retraining step. This feature causes computationally prohibitive complexity and
is not flexible enough to cope with rapidly changing environments. Their
complexities are often demanding because it involves a large collection of
offline classifiers due to the absence of structural complexities reduction
mechanisms and lack of an online feature selection mechanism. A novel evolving
ensemble classifier, namely Parsimonious Ensemble pENsemble, is proposed in
this paper. pENsemble differs from existing architectures in the fact that it
is built upon an evolving classifier from data streams, termed Parsimonious
Classifier pClass. pENsemble is equipped by an ensemble pruning mechanism,
which estimates a localized generalization error of a base classifier. A
dynamic online feature selection scenario is integrated into the pENsemble.
This method allows for dynamic selection and deselection of input features on
the fly. pENsemble adopts a dynamic ensemble structure to output a final
classification decision where it features a novel drift detection scenario to
grow the ensemble structure. The efficacy of the pENsemble has been numerically
demonstrated through rigorous numerical studies with dynamic and evolving data
streams where it delivers the most encouraging performance in attaining a
tradeoff between accuracy and complexity.Comment: this paper has been published by IEEE Transactions on Fuzzy System
Multisensor Poisson Multi-Bernoulli Filter for Joint Target-Sensor State Tracking
In a typical multitarget tracking (MTT) scenario, the sensor state is either
assumed known, or tracking is performed in the sensor's (relative) coordinate
frame. This assumption does not hold when the sensor, e.g., an automotive
radar, is mounted on a vehicle, and the target state should be represented in a
global (absolute) coordinate frame. Then it is important to consider the
uncertain location of the vehicle on which the sensor is mounted for MTT. In
this paper, we present a multisensor low complexity Poisson multi-Bernoulli MTT
filter, which jointly tracks the uncertain vehicle state and target states.
Measurements collected by different sensors mounted on multiple vehicles with
varying location uncertainty are incorporated sequentially based on the arrival
of new sensor measurements. In doing so, targets observed from a sensor mounted
on a well-localized vehicle reduce the state uncertainty of other poorly
localized vehicles, provided that a common non-empty subset of targets is
observed. A low complexity filter is obtained by approximations of the joint
sensor-feature state density minimizing the Kullback-Leibler divergence (KLD).
Results from synthetic as well as experimental measurement data, collected in a
vehicle driving scenario, demonstrate the performance benefits of joint
vehicle-target state tracking.Comment: 13 pages, 7 figure
Deformable Shape Completion with Graph Convolutional Autoencoders
The availability of affordable and portable depth sensors has made scanning
objects and people simpler than ever. However, dealing with occlusions and
missing parts is still a significant challenge. The problem of reconstructing a
(possibly non-rigidly moving) 3D object from a single or multiple partial scans
has received increasing attention in recent years. In this work, we propose a
novel learning-based method for the completion of partial shapes. Unlike the
majority of existing approaches, our method focuses on objects that can undergo
non-rigid deformations. The core of our method is a variational autoencoder
with graph convolutional operations that learns a latent space for complete
realistic shapes. At inference, we optimize to find the representation in this
latent space that best fits the generated shape to the known partial input. The
completed shape exhibits a realistic appearance on the unknown part. We show
promising results towards the completion of synthetic and real scans of human
body and face meshes exhibiting different styles of articulation and
partiality.Comment: CVPR 201
