Development Of A Rule-Based Monitoring System For Autonomous Heavy Equipment Safety, Amirpooya Shirazi Jul 2024

Development Of A Rule-Based Monitoring System For Autonomous Heavy Equipment Safety, Amirpooya Shirazi

Department of Construction Engineering and Management: Dissertations, Theses, and Student Research

Roadway construction work zones are constantly exposed to interactions among construction equipment, workers, and vehicles. Furthermore, ensuring safety in these areas is considered a challenging task due to the complexity of the environment. As shown in the rising trend of fatal accidents in roadway work zones, current OSHA regulations in construction safety are insufficient in effectively detecting unsafe situations and mitigating the risks. Furthermore, best practices, such as internal traffic control planning (ITCP), exhibit critical limitations requiring continuous monitoring of active work zones as well as adjustments to the site coordination plans due to the dynamic nature of work zone …

My Ai Companion: An Examination Of The Removal Of Erotic Role Play From Replika Through User Discussion On Reddit, Chelsee M. Allen

Department of Sociology: Dissertations, Theses, and Student Research

The development of artificial intelligence (AI) software has expanded rapidly in recent years, and thus has emerged the importance of exploring human relationships with AI chatbots. Replika, an app which uses AI to mimic human conversation, removed a function called Erotic Role Play (ERP) that allowed for sexual conversation with users’ customizable chatbots in February of 2023. This exploratory qualitative study examines the aftermath of ERP’s removal through an analysis of user interactions on Reddit.

Jigsaw: Edge-Based Streaming Perception Over Spatially Overlapped Multi-Camera Deployments, Ila Gokarn, Yigong Hu, Tarek Abdelzaher, Archan Misra

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

We present JIGSAW, a novel system that performs edge-based streaming perception over multiple video streams, while additionally factoring in the redundancy offered by the spatial overlap often exhibited in urban, multi-camera deployments. To assure high streaming throughput, JIGSAW extracts and spatially multiplexes multiple regions-of-interest from different camera frames into a smaller canvas frame. Moreover, to ensure that perception stays abreast of evolving object kinematics, JIGSAW includes a utility-based weighted scheduler to preferentially prioritize and even skip object-specific tiles extracted from an incoming stream of camera frames. Using the CityflowV2 traffic surveillance dataset, we show that JIGSAW can simultaneously process 25 …

How People Prompt Generative Ai To Create Interactive Vr Scenes, Setareh Aghel Manesh, Tianyi Zhang, Yuki Onishi, Kotaro Hara, Scott Bateman, Jiannan Li, Anthony Tang

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

Generative AI tools can provide people with the ability to create virtual environments and scenes with natural language prompts. Yet, how people will formulate such prompts is unclear---particularly when they inhabit the environment that they are designing. For instance, it is likely that a person might say, "Put a chair here,'' while pointing at a location. If such linguistic and embodied features are common to people's prompts, we need to tune models to accommodate them. In this work, we present a Wizard of Oz elicitation study with 22 participants, where we studied people's implicit expectations when verbally prompting such programming …

A Deep Learning Method To Predict Bacterial Adp-Ribosyltransferase Toxins, Dandan Zheng, Siyu Zhou, Lihong Chen, Guansong Pang, Jian Yang

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

Motivation: ADP-ribosylation is a critical modification involved in regulating diverse cellular processes, including chromatin structure regulation, RNA transcription, and cell death. Bacterial ADP-ribosyltransferase toxins (bARTTs) serve as potent virulence factors that orchestrate the manipulation of host cell functions to facilitate bacterial pathogenesis. Despite their pivotal role, the bioinformatic identification of novel bARTTs poses a formidable challenge due to limited verified data and the inherent sequence diversity among bARTT members. Results: We proposed a deep learning-based model, ARTNet, specifically engineered to predict bARTTs from bacterial genomes. Initially, we introduced an effective data augmentation method to address the issue of data scarcity …

Mvmoe: Multi-Task Vehicle Routing Solver With Mixture-Of-Experts, Jianan Zhou, Zhiguang Cao, Yaoxin Wu, Wen Song, Yining Ma, Jie Zhang, Chi Xu

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

Learning to solve vehicle routing problems (VRPs) has garnered much attention. However, most neural solvers are only structured and trained independently on a specific problem, making them less generic and practical. In this paper, we aim to develop a unified neural solver that can cope with a range of VRP variants simultaneously. Specifically, we propose a multi-task vehicle routing solver with mixture-of-experts (MVMoE), which greatly enhances the model capacity without a proportional increase in computation. We further develop a hierarchical gating mechanism for the MVMoE, delivering a good trade-off between empirical performance and computational complexity. Experimentally, our method significantly promotes …

Learning Topological Representations With Bidirectional Graph Attention Network For Solving Job Shop Scheduling Problem, Cong Zhang, Zhiguang Cao, Yaoxin Wu, Wen Song, Jing Sun

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

Existing learning-based methods for solving job shop scheduling problems (JSSP) usually use off-the-shelf GNN models tailored to undirected graphs and neglect the rich and meaningful topological structures of disjunctive graphs (DGs). This paper proposes the topology-aware bidirectional graph attention network (TBGAT), a novel GNN architecture based on the attention mechanism, to embed the DG for solving JSSP in a local search framework. Specifically, TBGAT embeds the DG from a forward and a backward view, respectively, where the messages are propagated by following the different topologies of the views and aggregated via graph attention. Then, we propose a novel operator based …


Adaptive Stabilization Based On Machine Learning For Column Generation, Yunzhuang Shen, Yuan Sun, Xiaodong Li, Zhiguang Cao, Eberhard Andrew, Guangquan Zhang Jul 2024

Adaptive Stabilization Based On Machine Learning For Column Generation, Yunzhuang Shen, Yuan Sun, Xiaodong Li, Zhiguang Cao, Eberhard Andrew, Guangquan Zhang

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

Column generation (CG) is a well-established method for solving large-scale linear programs. It involves iteratively optimizing a subproblem containing a subset of columns and using its dual solution to generate new columns with negative reduced costs. This process continues until the dual values converge to the optimal dual solution to the original problem. A natural phenomenon in CG is the heavy oscillation of the dual values during iterations, which can lead to a substantial slowdown in the convergence rate. Stabilization techniques are devised to accelerate the convergence of dual values by using information beyond the state of the current subproblem. …

Explainable Artificial Intelligence: Methods And Evaluation, Gayane Grigoryan Jul 2024

Explainable Artificial Intelligence: Methods And Evaluation, Gayane Grigoryan

Engineering Management & Systems Engineering Theses & Dissertations

A wide array of techniques within explainable artificial intelligence (XAI) have been developed to measure the importance of features in machine learning models. A notable portion of these methods draws upon principles of cooperative game theory (CGT), with the Shapley value emerging as a widely used solution concept. Despite the rising prominence of the Shapley value, other promising solutions from cooperative game theory—such as the Nucleolus, Banzhaf power index, Shapley-Shubik power index, and solutions to conflicting claims problems—have been comparatively overlooked, even though they hold significant potential. In this dissertation, multiple XAI methods based on these other CGT solutions are …
