A LightGBM-Based EEG Analysis Method for Driver Mental States Classification
Fatigue driving can easily lead to road traffic accidents and bring great harm to individuals and families. Recently, electroencephalography-
(EEG-) based physiological and brain activities for fatigue detection have been increasingly investigated.
However, how to find an effective method or model to timely and efficiently detect the mental states of drivers still remains a
challenge. In this paper, we combine common spatial pattern (CSP) and propose a light-weighted classifier, LightFD, which is
based on gradient boosting framework for EEG mental states identification. ,e comparable results with traditional classifiers,
such as support vector machine (SVM), convolutional neural network (CNN), gated recurrent unit (GRU), and large margin
nearest neighbor (LMNN), show that the proposed model could achieve better classification performance, as well as the decision
efficiency. Furthermore, we also test and validate that LightFD has better transfer learning performance in EEG classification of
driver mental states. In summary, our proposed LightFD classifier has better performance in real-time EEG mental state
prediction, and it is expected to have broad application prospects in practical brain-computer interaction (BCI)
Data Management in Industry 4.0: State of the Art and Open Challenges
Information and communication technologies are permeating all aspects of
industrial and manufacturing systems, expediting the generation of large
volumes of industrial data. This article surveys the recent literature on data
management as it applies to networked industrial environments and identifies
several open research challenges for the future. As a first step, we extract
important data properties (volume, variety, traffic, criticality) and identify
the corresponding data enabling technologies of diverse fundamental industrial
use cases, based on practical applications. Secondly, we provide a detailed
outline of recent industrial architectural designs with respect to their data
management philosophy (data presence, data coordination, data computation) and
the extent of their distributiveness. Then, we conduct a holistic survey of the
recent literature from which we derive a taxonomy of the latest advances on
industrial data enabling technologies and data centric services, spanning all
the way from the field level deep in the physical deployments, up to the cloud
and applications level. Finally, motivated by the rich conclusions of this
critical analysis, we identify interesting open challenges for future research.
The concepts presented in this article thematically cover the largest part of
the industrial automation pyramid layers. Our approach is multidisciplinary, as
the selected publications were drawn from two fields; the communications,
networking and computation field as well as the industrial, manufacturing and
automation field. The article can help the readers to deeply understand how
data management is currently applied in networked industrial environments, and
select interesting open research opportunities to pursue
A Survey on the Security of Pervasive Online Social Networks (POSNs)
Pervasive Online Social Networks (POSNs) are the extensions of Online Social
Networks (OSNs) which facilitate connectivity irrespective of the domain and
properties of users. POSNs have been accumulated with the convergence of a
plethora of social networking platforms with a motivation of bridging their
gap. Over the last decade, OSNs have visually perceived an altogether
tremendous amount of advancement in terms of the number of users as well as
technology enablers. A single OSN is the property of an organization, which
ascertains smooth functioning of its accommodations for providing a quality
experience to their users. However, with POSNs, multiple OSNs have coalesced
through communities, circles, or only properties, which make
service-provisioning tedious and arduous to sustain. Especially, challenges
become rigorous when the focus is on the security perspective of cross-platform
OSNs, which are an integral part of POSNs. Thus, it is of utmost paramountcy to
highlight such a requirement and understand the current situation while
discussing the available state-of-the-art. With the modernization of OSNs and
convergence towards POSNs, it is compulsory to understand the impact and reach
of current solutions for enhancing the security of users as well as associated
services. This survey understands this requisite and fixates on different sets
of studies presented over the last few years and surveys them for their
applicability to POSNs...Comment: 39 Pages, 10 Figure
Review on the prediction of residual stress in welded steel components
Residual stress after welding has negative effects on the service life of welded steel components or structures. This work reviews three most commonly used methods for predicting residual stress, namely, empirical, semi-empirical and process simulation methods. Basic principles adopted by these methods are introduced. The features and limitations of each method are discussed as well. The empirical method is the most practical but its accuracy relies heavily on experiments. Mechanical theories are employed in the semi-empirical method, while other aspects, such as temperature variation and phase transformation, are simply ignored. The process simulation method has been widely used due to its capability of handling with large and complex components. To improve its accuracy and efficiency, several improvements need to be done for each simulation aspect of this method
Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA) and Topic modeling: models, applications, a survey
Topic modeling is one of the most powerful techniques in text mining for data
mining, latent data discovery, and finding relationships among data, text
documents. Researchers have published many articles in the field of topic
modeling and applied in various fields such as software engineering, political
science, medical and linguistic science, etc. There are various methods for
topic modeling, which Latent Dirichlet allocation (LDA) is one of the most
popular methods in this field. Researchers have proposed various models based
on the LDA in topic modeling. According to previous work, this paper can be
very useful and valuable for introducing LDA approaches in topic modeling. In
this paper, we investigated scholarly articles highly (between 2003 to 2016)
related to Topic Modeling based on LDA to discover the research development,
current trends and intellectual structure of topic modeling. Also, we summarize
challenges and introduce famous tools and datasets in topic modeling based on
LDA.Comment: arXiv admin note: text overlap with arXiv:1505.07302 by other author
Survey of state-of-the-art mixed data clustering algorithms
Mixed data comprises both numeric and categorical features, and mixed
datasets occur frequently in many domains, such as health, finance, and
marketing. Clustering is often applied to mixed datasets to find structures and
to group similar objects for further analysis. However, clustering mixed data
is challenging because it is difficult to directly apply mathematical
operations, such as summation or averaging, to the feature values of these
datasets. In this paper, we present a taxonomy for the study of mixed data
clustering algorithms by identifying five major research themes. We then
present a state-of-the-art review of the research works within each research
theme. We analyze the strengths and weaknesses of these methods with pointers
for future research directions. Lastly, we present an in-depth analysis of the
overall challenges in this field, highlight open research questions and discuss
guidelines to make progress in the field.Comment: 20 Pages, 2 columns, 6 Tables, 209 Reference
Memory footprint reduction for the FFT-based volume integral equation method via tensor decompositions
We present a method of memory footprint reduction for FFT-based,
electromagnetic (EM) volume integral equation (VIE) formulations. The arising
Green's function tensors have low multilinear rank, which allows Tucker
decomposition to be employed for their compression, thereby greatly reducing
the required memory storage for numerical simulations. Consequently, the
compressed components are able to fit inside a graphical processing unit (GPU)
on which highly parallelized computations can vastly accelerate the iterative
solution of the arising linear system. In addition, the element-wise products
throughout the iterative solver's process require additional flops, thus, we
provide a variety of novel and efficient methods that maintain the linear
complexity of the classic element-wise product with an additional
multiplicative small constant. We demonstrate the utility of our approach via
its application to VIE simulations for the Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) of
a human head. For these simulations we report an order of magnitude
acceleration over standard techniques.Comment: 11 pages, 10 figures, 5 tables, 2 algorithms, journa
Deep Learning in Cardiology
The medical field is creating large amount of data that physicians are unable
to decipher and use efficiently. Moreover, rule-based expert systems are
inefficient in solving complicated medical tasks or for creating insights using
big data. Deep learning has emerged as a more accurate and effective technology
in a wide range of medical problems such as diagnosis, prediction and
intervention. Deep learning is a representation learning method that consists
of layers that transform the data non-linearly, thus, revealing hierarchical
relationships and structures. In this review we survey deep learning
application papers that use structured data, signal and imaging modalities from
cardiology. We discuss the advantages and limitations of applying deep learning
in cardiology that also apply in medicine in general, while proposing certain
directions as the most viable for clinical use.Comment: 27 pages, 2 figures, 10 table
Evolution of Semantic Similarity -- A Survey
Estimating the semantic similarity between text data is one of the
challenging and open research problems in the field of Natural Language
Processing (NLP). The versatility of natural language makes it difficult to
define rule-based methods for determining semantic similarity measures. In
order to address this issue, various semantic similarity methods have been
proposed over the years. This survey article traces the evolution of such
methods, categorizing them based on their underlying principles as
knowledge-based, corpus-based, deep neural network-based methods, and hybrid
methods. Discussing the strengths and weaknesses of each method, this survey
provides a comprehensive view of existing systems in place, for new researchers
to experiment and develop innovative ideas to address the issue of semantic
similarity.Comment: 29 pages, 5 figures, submitted to "ACM Computing Survey
Zonotopic fault detection observer design for Takagi–Sugeno fuzzy systems
This paper considers zonotopic fault detection observer design in the finite-frequency domain for discrete-time Takagi–Sugeno fuzzy systems with unknown but bounded disturbances and measurement noise. We present a novel fault detection observer structure, which is more general than the commonly used Luenberger form. To make the generated residual sensitive to faults and robust against disturbances, we develop a finite-frequency fault detection observer based on generalised Kalman–Yakubovich–Popov lemma and P-radius criterion. The design conditions are expressed in terms of linear matrix inequalities. The major merit of the proposed method is that residual evaluation can be easily implemented via zonotopic approach. Numerical examples are conducted to demonstrate the proposed methodPeer ReviewedPostprint (author's final draft
