Recurrent neural network with density-based clustering for group pattern detection in energy systems
This research explores a new direction in power system technology and develops a new framework for pattern group discovery from large power system data. The efficient combination between the recurrent neural network and the density-based clustering enables to find the group patterns in the power system. The power system data is first collected in multiple time series data and trained by the recurrent neural network to find simple patterns. The simple patterns are then studied, and analyzed with the density-based clustering algorithm to identify the group of patterns. The solution was analyzed in two case studies (pattern discovery and outlier detection) specifically for power systems. The results show the advantages of the proposed framework and a clear superiority compared to state-of-the-art approaches, where the average correlation in group pattern detection is 90% and in group outlier detection more than 80% of both true-positive and true-negative rates.publishedVersio

Routine pattern discovery and anomaly detection in individual travel behavior
Discovering patterns and detecting anomalies in individual travel behavior is
a crucial problem in both research and practice. In this paper, we address this
problem by building a probabilistic framework to model individual
spatiotemporal travel behavior data (e.g., trip records and trajectory data).
We develop a two-dimensional latent Dirichlet allocation (LDA) model to
characterize the generative mechanism of spatiotemporal trip records of each
traveler. This model introduces two separate factor matrices for the spatial
dimension and the temporal dimension, respectively, and use a two-dimensional
core structure at the individual level to effectively model the joint
interactions and complex dependencies. This model can efficiently summarize
travel behavior patterns on both spatial and temporal dimensions from very
sparse trip sequences in an unsupervised way. In this way, complex travel
behavior can be modeled as a mixture of representative and interpretable
spatiotemporal patterns. By applying the trained model on future/unseen
spatiotemporal records of a traveler, we can detect her behavior anomalies by
scoring those observations using perplexity. We demonstrate the effectiveness
of the proposed modeling framework on a real-world license plate recognition
(LPR) data set. The results confirm the advantage of statistical learning
methods in modeling sparse individual travel behavior data. This type of
pattern discovery and anomaly detection applications can provide useful
insights for traffic monitoring, law enforcement, and individual travel

A Hybrid Approach to Parallel Pattern Discovery in C++
Funding: EU Horizon 2020 project, TeamPlay, grant number 779882, and UK EPSRC Discovery, grant number EP/P020631/1.Parallel pattern libraries offer a strong combination of abstraction and performance. However, discovering places in sequential code where parallel patterns should be introduced is still highly non-trivial, often requiring expert manual analysis and profiling. We present a hybrid discovery technique to detect instances of parallel patterns in sequential code. This employs both static and dynamic trace-based analysis, together with hotspot detection. We evaluate our pattern discovery mechanism on a number of representative benchmarks. We evaluate the performance of the resulting parallelised benchmarks on a 24-core parallel machine.Postprin
The Origin of the Universe as Revealed Through the Polarization of the Cosmic Microwave Background
Modern cosmology has sharpened questions posed for millennia about the origin
of our cosmic habitat. The age-old questions have been transformed into two
pressing issues primed for attack in the coming decade: How did the Universe
begin? and What physical laws govern the Universe at the highest energies? The
clearest window onto these questions is the pattern of polarization in the
Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB), which is uniquely sensitive to primordial
gravity waves. A detection of the special pattern produced by gravity waves
would be not only an unprecedented discovery, but also a direct probe of
physics at the earliest observable instants of our Universe. Experiments which
map CMB polarization over the coming decade will lead us on our first steps
towards answering these age-old questions.Comment: Science White Paper submitted to the US Astro2010 Decadal Survey.

Urinary CE-MS peptide marker pattern for detection of solid tumors
Urinary profiling datasets, previously acquired by capillary electrophoresis coupled to mass-spectrometry were investigated to identify a general urinary marker pattern for detection of solid tumors by targeting common systemic events associated with tumor-related inflammation. A total of 2,055 urinary profiles were analyzed, derived from a) a cancer group of patients (n = 969) with bladder, prostate, and pancreatic cancers, renal cell carcinoma, and cholangiocarcinoma and b) a control group of patients with benign diseases (n = 556), inflammatory diseases (n = 199) and healthy individuals (n = 331). Statistical analysis was conducted in a discovery set of 676 cancer cases and 744 controls. 193 peptides differing at statistically significant levels between cases and controls were selected and combined to a multi-dimensional marker pattern using support vector machine algorithms. Independent validation in a set of 635 patients (293 cancer cases and 342 controls) showed an AUC of 0.82. Inclusion of age as independent variable, significantly increased the AUC value to 0.85. Among the identified peptides were mucins, fibrinogen and collagen fragments. Further studies are planned to assess the pattern value to monitor patients for tumor recurrence. In this proof-of-concept study, a general tumor marker pattern was developed to detect cancer based on shared biomarkers, likely indicative of cancer-related features
