A study on the failure prediction of composite laminates in bending
Failure prediction for composite materials under given loading conditions is important for efficient design in structural applications. Over the past several decades, there are numerous failure criteria proposed to more accurately predict the failure composite laminates. A lot of research was conducted to evaluate and validate the failure prediction capability for failure criteria. The most failure criteria are studied for in-plane loading conditions. Mechanical behavior of composite laminates varies depending on the loading conditions. Even if failure criterion is accurate under the in-plane loads, it cannot be accurate for out-of-plane loads such as bending. In many industrial structures, composite laminates is under out-of-plane load as well as in-plane loads. For the structural stability of the composite structures, it is important to accurately predict failure of composite laminates under bending. In this study, the failure prediction of composite laminates under bending is investigated. The non-linear finite element analysis using Arc-length method is performed. 2D strain-based interactive failure theory [1] that is more accurately final failure of composite laminate under multi-axial loading is applied to predict the final failure of composite laminates under bending. In order to compare the accuracy of the failure predictions, a 3-point bending test are performed for un-symmetric cross-ply [0/90]8 and quasi-isotropic [0/±45/90]2s composite laminates. Also, it is compared with the other failure criteria such as maximum strain, maximum stress and Tsai-Wu theories. Finally, the predicted results using 2D strain-based interactive failure theory more agree well with the experiment than other failure theories.

Ball Trajectory Inference from Multi-Agent Sports Contexts Using Set Transformer and Hierarchical Bi-LSTM
As artificial intelligence spreads out to numerous fields, the application of
AI to sports analytics is also in the spotlight. However, one of the major
challenges is the difficulty of automated acquisition of continuous movement
data during sports matches. In particular, it is a conundrum to reliably track
a tiny ball on a wide soccer pitch with obstacles such as occlusion and
imitations. Tackling the problem, this paper proposes an inference framework of
ball trajectory from player trajectories as a cost-efficient alternative to
ball tracking. We combine Set Transformers to get permutation-invariant and
equivariant representations of the multi-agent contexts with a hierarchical
architecture that intermediately predicts the player ball possession to support
the final trajectory inference. Also, we introduce the reality loss term and
postprocessing to secure the estimated trajectories to be physically realistic.
The experimental results show that our model provides natural and accurate
trajectories as well as admissible player ball possession at the same time.
Lastly, we suggest several practical applications of our framework including
missing trajectory imputation, semi-automated pass annotation, automated
zoom-in for match broadcasting, and calculating possession-wise running
performance metrics
6MapNet: Representing soccer players from tracking data by a triplet network
Although the values of individual soccer players have become astronomical,
subjective judgments still play a big part in the player analysis. Recently,
there have been new attempts to quantitatively grasp players' styles using
video-based event stream data. However, they have some limitations in
scalability due to high annotation costs and sparsity of event stream data. In
this paper, we build a triplet network named 6MapNet that can effectively
capture the movement styles of players using in-game GPS data. Without any
annotation of soccer-specific actions, we use players' locations and velocities
to generate two types of heatmaps. Our subnetworks then map these heatmap pairs
into feature vectors whose similarity corresponds to the actual similarity of
playing styles. The experimental results show that players can be accurately
identified with only a small number of matches by our method.Comment: 12 pages, 4 figures, In 8th Workshop on Machine Learning and Data

The Effects of Cognitive Appraisal and Emotion on Consumer Behavior: The Critical Role of Recollection in the Luxury Cruise Setting
Abstract de la ponencia[EN] The purposes of this study were: (1) to integrate the cognitive appraisal
theory and script theory; (2) to examine the bonding character of
recollection; and (3) to assess the relationships between consumers
‘appraisals, positive/negative emotions, recollection, storytelling and
repurchase intention. A review of previous studies revealed 14 theoretical
hypotheses. The proposed hypotheses were tested utilizing data collected
from 300 luxury cruise passengers. Confirmatory factor analysis and
structural equation modeling were utilized to test the proposed theoretical
relationships. According to the results, this work was the first to integrate the
cognitive appraisal approach and script theory and also depicted a new
angle from which marketers can better understand cruise travelers’ behaviorJoo, E.; Shin, H.; Kim, I.; Choi, J.; Jang, J.; Hyun, S. (2016).

Long-term Time Series Forecasting based on Decomposition and Neural Ordinary Differential Equations
Long-term time series forecasting (LTSF) is a challenging task that has been
investigated in various domains such as finance investment, health care,
traffic, and weather forecasting. In recent years, Linear-based LTSF models
showed better performance, pointing out the problem of Transformer-based
approaches causing temporal information loss. However, Linear-based approach
has also limitations that the model is too simple to comprehensively exploit
the characteristics of the dataset. To solve these limitations, we propose
LTSF-DNODE, which applies a model based on linear ordinary differential
equations (ODEs) and a time series decomposition method according to data
statistical characteristics. We show that LTSF-DNODE outperforms the baselines
on various real-world datasets. In addition, for each dataset, we explore the
impacts of regularization in the neural ordinary differential equation (NODE)
framework.Comment: Accepted at IEEE BigData 202
