Modeling and simulation based on reinforcement learning can propose a decision-making policy in this kind of process.

The application of the approach presented in this paper is made on the search for the leverage effect linked to the price volatility of the main stock market indices (CAC40, NasDaq, etc.).","PeriodicalId":110658,"journal":{"name":"2018 4th International Conference on Universal Village (UV)","volume":"128 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128209668","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Urban agriculture and vertical farming have the potential to provide a revolutionary new food supply and distribution network capable of feeding large populations in the 21st Century; as well as increase quality and reduce negative impacts on the natural environment. The concept has attracted a lot of attention from governments and business throughout the world recently. This paper describes a framework for applying technologies from Agent Based Models, Simulation and Computational Intelligence to analyze, optimize and manage “ecosystems” for urban agriculture and vertical farming for food production from the perspective of stakeholders including consumers, producers, and policy makers.","PeriodicalId":110658,"journal":{"name":"2018 4th International Conference on Universal Village (UV)","volume":"28 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130037921","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Two different machine vision techniques are investigated to determine their competency in detecting droplets from in-process microscopic images of a cream emulsion. Histogram-based segmentation shows promising potential compared to edge and symmetry detection. A statistical study of the droplet characteristics was conducted. The results demonstrate that the histogram-based approach is more proficient in the progressive analysis of droplet evolution during emulsification. A real-time integration of the technique is proposed, as a soft sensor, to predict the optimum process time and to increase manufacturing efficiency in chemical industries.","PeriodicalId":110658,"journal":{"name":"2018 4th International Conference on Universal Village (UV)","volume":"34 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130348183","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In addition, most existing systems have a strictly top-down hierarchical structure, where a central device such as the user’s mobile phone controls the system to the point where the lack thereof impacts the functionality of the system on a tremendous scale, and may sometimes result in a cascading failure rendering the entire system inoperable.This article focuses on the relationship and connection between various unconnected data points scattered across a person’s quotidian life, as well as the decentralized connection between smart home devices, both on a microscopic and on a community scale. It seeks to propose an alternative system that takes into account not only user commands and routines, but also pieces of information disseminated by the surrounding environment, which the user might not have perceived or understood, and incorporates them into its own process of analysis. Further more, the proposed system emphasizes modularization and decentralization, such that the addition and removal of a node should not impact the system outside of the specific functionality provided by the said node.","PeriodicalId":110658,"journal":{"name":"2018 4th International Conference on Universal Village (UV)","volume":"3 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134416743","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the training process of feature kernels in CNNs is easily affected by illumination intensity and feature interaction, which leads to over-fitting. In this paper, we propose a covariance neural network (CovNN), which replaces the original convolutional operation with our covariance algorithm, to make the learned kernels more robust to different illumination conditions and irrelevant features. This covariance layer uses the 3D covariance between all the input feature maps and the corresponding group of kernels by sliding window method, and regularizes them without additional parameters. Moreover, the covariance layer can be seamlessly transplanted to a variety of neural network architectures extended from CNNs (e.g., ResNet, Faster R-CNN). We evaluate the proposed CovNN on several popular datasets for image recognition (MNIST, Fashion-MNIST, CIFAR 10 and AR) and classification of organs (Abdominal Ultrasound Dataset). Experimental results demonstrate that CovNN achieves significant improvements over the state-of-the-art on most of them.","PeriodicalId":110658,"journal":{"name":"2018 4th International Conference on Universal Village (UV)","volume":"2 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129805103","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
