Modeling of Social Transitions Using Intelligent Systems
In this study, we reproduce two new hybrid intelligent systems, involve three
prominent intelligent computing and approximate reasoning methods: Self
Organizing feature Map (SOM), Neruo-Fuzzy Inference System and Rough Set Theory
(RST),called SONFIS and SORST. We show how our algorithms can be construed as a
linkage of government-society interactions, where government catches various
states of behaviors: solid (absolute) or flexible. So, transition of society,
by changing of connectivity parameters (noise) from order to disorder is
inferred
Human Motion Trajectory Prediction: A Survey
With growing numbers of intelligent autonomous systems in human environments,
the ability of such systems to perceive, understand and anticipate human
behavior becomes increasingly important. Specifically, predicting future
positions of dynamic agents and planning considering such predictions are key
tasks for self-driving vehicles, service robots and advanced surveillance
systems. This paper provides a survey of human motion trajectory prediction. We
review, analyze and structure a large selection of work from different
communities and propose a taxonomy that categorizes existing methods based on
the motion modeling approach and level of contextual information used. We
provide an overview of the existing datasets and performance metrics. We
discuss limitations of the state of the art and outline directions for further
research.Comment: Submitted to the International Journal of Robotics Research (IJRR),

A group learning management method for intelligent tutoring systems
In this paper we propose a group management specification and execution method that seeks a compromise between simple course design and complex adaptive group interaction. This is achieved through an authoring method that proposes predefined scenarios to the author. These scenarios already include complex learning interaction protocols in which student and group models use and update are automatically included. The method adopts ontologies to represent domain and student models, and object Petri nets to specify the group interaction protocols. During execution, the method is supported by a multi-agent architecture
Identifying Modes of Intent from Driver Behaviors in Dynamic Environments
In light of growing attention of intelligent vehicle systems, we propose
developing a driver model that uses a hybrid system formulation to capture the
intent of the driver. This model hopes to capture human driving behavior in a
way that can be utilized by semi- and fully autonomous systems in heterogeneous
environments. We consider a discrete set of high level goals or intent modes,
that is designed to encompass the decision making process of the human. A
driver model is derived using a dataset of lane changes collected in a
realistic driving simulator, in which the driver actively labels data to give
us insight into her intent. By building the labeled dataset, we are able to
utilize classification tools to build the driver model using features of based
on her perception of the environment, and achieve high accuracy in identifying
driver intent. Multiple algorithms are presented and compared on the dataset,
and a comparison of the varying behaviors between drivers is drawn. Using this
modeling methodology, we present a model that can be used to assess driver
behaviors and to develop human-inspired safety metrics that can be utilized in
intelligent vehicular systems.Comment: Submitted to ITSC 201
Current Challenges and Visions in Music Recommender Systems Research
Music recommender systems (MRS) have experienced a boom in recent years,
thanks to the emergence and success of online streaming services, which
nowadays make available almost all music in the world at the user's fingertip.
While today's MRS considerably help users to find interesting music in these
huge catalogs, MRS research is still facing substantial challenges. In
particular when it comes to build, incorporate, and evaluate recommendation
strategies that integrate information beyond simple user--item interactions or
content-based descriptors, but dig deep into the very essence of listener
needs, preferences, and intentions, MRS research becomes a big endeavor and
related publications quite sparse.
The purpose of this trends and survey article is twofold. We first identify
and shed light on what we believe are the most pressing challenges MRS research
is facing, from both academic and industry perspectives. We review the state of
the art towards solving these challenges and discuss its limitations. Second,
we detail possible future directions and visions we contemplate for the further
evolution of the field. The article should therefore serve two purposes: giving
the interested reader an overview of current challenges in MRS research and
providing guidance for young researchers by identifying interesting, yet
under-researched, directions in the field
