Learning Spatio-Temporal Specifications for Dynamical Systems
Learning dynamical systems properties from data provides important insights
that help us understand such systems and mitigate undesired outcomes. In this
work, we propose a framework for learning spatio-temporal (ST) properties as
formal logic specifications from data. We introduce SVM-STL, an extension of
Signal Signal Temporal Logic (STL), capable of specifying spatial and temporal
properties of a wide range of dynamical systems that exhibit time-varying
spatial patterns. Our framework utilizes machine learning techniques to learn
SVM-STL specifications from system executions given by sequences of spatial
patterns. We present methods to deal with both labeled and unlabeled data. In
addition, given system requirements in the form of SVM-STL specifications, we
provide an approach for parameter synthesis to find parameters that maximize
the satisfaction of such specifications. Our learning framework and parameter
synthesis approach are showcased in an example of a reaction-diffusion system.Comment: 12 pages, submitted to L4DC 202
A Convolutional Neural Network model based on Neutrosophy for Noisy Speech Recognition
Convolutional neural networks are sensitive to unknown noisy condition in the
test phase and so their performance degrades for the noisy data classification
task including noisy speech recognition. In this research, a new convolutional
neural network (CNN) model with data uncertainty handling; referred as NCNN
(Neutrosophic Convolutional Neural Network); is proposed for classification
task. Here, speech signals are used as input data and their noise is modeled as
uncertainty. In this task, using speech spectrogram, a definition of
uncertainty is proposed in neutrosophic (NS) domain. Uncertainty is computed
for each Time-frequency point of speech spectrogram as like a pixel. Therefore,
uncertainty matrix with the same size of spectrogram is created in NS domain.
In the next step, a two parallel paths CNN classification model is proposed.
Speech spectrogram is used as input of the first path and uncertainty matrix
for the second path. The outputs of two paths are combined to compute the final
output of the classifier. To show the effectiveness of the proposed method, it
has been compared with conventional CNN on the isolated words of Aurora2
dataset. The proposed method achieves the average accuracy of 85.96 in noisy
train data. It is more robust against Car, Airport and Subway noises with
accuracies 90, 88 and 81 in test sets A, B and C, respectively. Results show
that the proposed method outperforms conventional CNN with the improvement of
6, 5 and 2 percentage in test set A, test set B and test sets C, respectively.
It means that the proposed method is more robust against noisy data and handle
these data effectively.Comment: International conference on Pattern Recognition and Image Analysis

Learning Task Specifications from Demonstrations
Real world applications often naturally decompose into several sub-tasks. In
many settings (e.g., robotics) demonstrations provide a natural way to specify
the sub-tasks. However, most methods for learning from demonstrations either do
not provide guarantees that the artifacts learned for the sub-tasks can be
safely recombined or limit the types of composition available. Motivated by
this deficit, we consider the problem of inferring Boolean non-Markovian
rewards (also known as logical trace properties or specifications) from
demonstrations provided by an agent operating in an uncertain, stochastic
environment. Crucially, specifications admit well-defined composition rules
that are typically easy to interpret. In this paper, we formulate the
specification inference task as a maximum a posteriori (MAP) probability
inference problem, apply the principle of maximum entropy to derive an analytic
demonstration likelihood model and give an efficient approach to search for the
most likely specification in a large candidate pool of specifications. In our
experiments, we demonstrate how learning specifications can help avoid common
problems that often arise due to ad-hoc reward composition.Comment: NIPS 201

Collaborative Deep Learning for Speech Enhancement: A Run-Time Model Selection Method Using Autoencoders
We show that a Modular Neural Network (MNN) can combine various speech
enhancement modules, each of which is a Deep Neural Network (DNN) specialized
on a particular enhancement job. Differently from an ordinary ensemble
technique that averages variations in models, the propose MNN selects the best
module for the unseen test signal to produce a greedy ensemble. We see this as
Collaborative Deep Learning (CDL), because it can reuse various already-trained
DNN models without any further refining. In the proposed MNN selecting the best
module during run time is challenging. To this end, we employ a speech
AutoEncoder (AE) as an arbitrator, whose input and output are trained to be as
similar as possible if its input is clean speech. Therefore, the AE can gauge
the quality of the module-specific denoised result by seeing its AE
reconstruction error, e.g. low error means that the module output is similar to
clean speech. We propose an MNN structure with various modules that are
specialized on dealing with a specific noise type, gender, and input
Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) value, and empirically prove that it almost always
works better than an arbitrarily chosen DNN module and sometimes as good as an
oracle result
Attribute Exploration of Gene Regulatory Processes
This thesis aims at the logical analysis of discrete processes, in particular
of such generated by gene regulatory networks. States, transitions and
operators from temporal logics are expressed in the language of Formal Concept
Analysis. By the attribute exploration algorithm, an expert or a computer
program is enabled to validate a minimal and complete set of implications, e.g.
by comparison of predictions derived from literature with observed data. Here,
these rules represent temporal dependencies within gene regulatory networks
including coexpression of genes, reachability of states, invariants or possible
causal relationships. This new approach is embedded into the theory of
universal coalgebras, particularly automata, Kripke structures and Labelled
Transition Systems. A comparison with the temporal expressivity of Description
Logics is made. The main theoretical results concern the integration of
background knowledge into the successive exploration of the defined data
structures (formal contexts). Applying the method a Boolean network from
literature modelling sporulation of Bacillus subtilis is examined. Finally, we
developed an asynchronous Boolean network for extracellular matrix formation
and destruction in the context of rheumatoid arthritis.Comment: 111 pages, 9 figures, file size 2.1 MB, PhD thesis University of
