Deep learning has allowed for several image-related applications, with some focusing on generating labels for images, or synthesize images from a text description. Similarly, it has been employed to create new music scores from existing ones, or add lyrics to a song. In this work, we bring sight and sound together and present IMuCo, an intelligent music composer that creates original music for any given image, taking into consideration what its implied mood is. Our music augmentation and composing methodology attempts to translate image “linguistics” into music “linguistics” without any intermediate natural language translation steps. We propose an encoder-decoder architecture to translate an image into music, first classifying it into one of predefined moods, then generating music to match it. We discuss in detail how we created the training dataset, including several feature engineering decisions in terms of representing music. We also introduce an evaluation classifier framework used for validation and evaluation of the system, and present experimental results of IMuCo’s prototype for two moods: happy and sad. IMuCo can be the core component of a framework that composes the soundtrack for longer video clips, used in advertising, art, and entertainment industries.","PeriodicalId":151527,"journal":{"name":"2020 Second International Conference on Transdisciplinary AI (TransAI)","volume":"159 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123382365","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}

Cluster Editing is then applied to partition the vertex set of the graph into subsets representing nearly complete subgraphs. Finally, the vectors representing the components are used as features to model the components for vulnerability risk.","PeriodicalId":151527,"journal":{"name":"2020 Second International Conference on Transdisciplinary AI (TransAI)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121173260","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 this paper, a precision health app, Positive Peers (PP), has been developed collaboratively while enabled by data harnessing, Artificial Intelligence (Al), and learning. Positive Peers is an Android/iOS-based social media app for providing support and information to a young adult subgroup living with HIV who are in strong need of support and motivation. We apply an intervention approach combined with Natural Language Processing (NLP) to help the targeted youth to engage more with the app. Using NLP facilitates the flow of information that has a critical role in decreasing the uncertainty of patients by being injected to useful related information. It further improves the interaction of users of the app while providing a compact platform for users to better find the answers to their questions and concerns. The NLP system has been evaluated in an alpha test.","PeriodicalId":151527,"journal":{"name":"2020 Second International Conference on Transdisciplinary AI (TransAI)","volume":"166 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116304303","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}

The hardness of polynomial-time approximation of many intractable problems motivated the work on fixed-parameter approximation where polynomial-time is relaxed into FPT -time as long as improved approximation is obtained, most often requiring constant ratio bounds. In this paper we move a step further by investigating the practicality of exponential time approximation (versus FPT-time) as long as obtained solutions are within an additive parameter. The running time of such algorithm would be reduced by some function (factor) of the same parameter. The objective is to obtain a cost-effective trade-off between reduced running time and quality of approximation while providing provably near optimal solutions. We present experimental studies of two problems: Dominating Set and Vertex Cover. Our experiments show that semi-exact algorithms are indeed very promising.","PeriodicalId":151527,"journal":{"name":"2020 Second International Conference on Transdisciplinary AI (TransAI)","volume":"111 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131951193","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}

The flux at A is the difference of the two (‘in’ minus ‘out’.) For a fixed graph G consider the set $triangle$ of all orientations of G. We calculate “worstcase” flux as the “min-max” flux: the maximum flux over all subsets of vertices and the minimum over all orientations.

In this paper, we propose a novel attention block that leverages a special Channel-Attention branch. We use this attention block as the building block and adopt the architecture of HRNet to build our Attention Based HRNet (A-HRNet).

While research around Big Data has focused on scalable solutions that can support the datasets produced by these systems, the focus has been mainly on managing the volume and velocity of these data, rather than providing efficient solutions for their retrieval and analysis. A key characteristic of these data, which is, more often than not, overlooked, is the spatial information that can be used to integrate data from multiple sources and conduct multidimensional analysis of the collected information.
