A software system was developed to analyse the dynamics of pedestrians with a focus on their movement trajectories and the angle between the pedestrian's movement vector and their gaze vector. One-class support vector machines and dynamic time warping were applied for outlier detection in order to indentify noticeable changes in the visual behavior of individuals in a group of simulated pedestrians who walk past visually attractive objects. Results of simulation experiments demonstrate how different pedestrian behaviour characteristics can be detected and distinguished in a variety of abstract urban design scenarios. The described software system was designed to allow future real world applications by feeding video recordings of real pedestrians into the model.","PeriodicalId":189187,"journal":{"name":"Third International Workshop on Advanced Computational Intelligence","volume":"13 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-09-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121702060","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 model, original data set are partitioned into some different training subsets via Bagging technology. Then using different ANNs algorithms and different network architecture generate diverse individual neural network ensemble by taining subsets, Thirdly, the partial least square regression is adopted to extract ensemble members. Finally, the K-nn nonparametric regression is used for ensemble model. Empirical results obtained reveal that the prediction by using the nonparametric ensemble model is generally better than those obtained using other models presented in this study in terms of the same evaluation measurements. Our findings reveal that the nonparametric ensemble model proposed here can be used as an alternative forecasting tool for a Meteorological application in achieving greater forecasting accuracy and improving prediction quality further.","PeriodicalId":189187,"journal":{"name":"Third International Workshop on Advanced Computational Intelligence","volume":"74 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-09-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124753891","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 these schemes, how to update the memory could be important for their performance. However, little work has been done about the associative memory updating strategies. In this paper, a novel updating strategy is proposed for associative memory schemes. In this strategy, the memory point whose associated environmental information is most similar to the current environmental information is first picked out from the memory. Then, the selected memory individual is updated according to the fitness value, and the associated environmental information is updated according to the matching degree between environmental information and individuals. This updating strategy is embedded into a state-of-the-art algorithm, i.e. the MPBIL, and tested by experiments. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed updating strategy is helpful for associative memory schemes to enhance their search ability in cyclic dynamic environments.","PeriodicalId":189187,"journal":{"name":"Third International Workshop on Advanced Computational Intelligence","volume":"65 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-09-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125653107","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}

Image binary is an important but hard task in automatic check image processing system. Difficulties in binary procedure derive mainly from the different types and positions of seal imprints. In this paper, we proposed a new binary method which is based on the fact that objects in a character image are mostly dark with thin strokes. In order to remove large block backgrounds, we firstly designed a set of morphological perorations to enhance the local feature of thin objects. Then a global threshold is selected and applied to the new enhanced image. Experiment results on 2745 real-life Chinese check images demonstrate the efficiency of our method compared with other commonly used binary methods. The recognition success rate has achieved 91.5%.","PeriodicalId":189187,"journal":{"name":"Third International Workshop on Advanced Computational Intelligence","volume":"33 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-09-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130370976","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}

Adaptive Immune Genetic Algorithm introduces antigens recognition function, immune memory function and antibodies self-adjusting function to Genetic Algorithm, and replaces the fixed probability crossover and mutation operator of Genetic Algorithm with the adaptive probability crossover and mutation operator. AIGA overcomes some disadvantages of GA, such as prematureness, slow convergence speed and reduction in diversity. And AIGA has strong global optimization ability and high searching efficiency. Then AIGA is used to optimize PID parameter for the main steam temperature control system. The simulation comparison experiment with different methods shows that PID parameters obtained by AIGA may provide better control effect than those obtained by GA and the engineering tuning methods. That is, the system control effect adopting AIGA-PID parameter has small overshoot, short adjusting time, and smooth transition. The simulation result also proves the validity of AIGA.","PeriodicalId":189187,"journal":{"name":"Third International Workshop on Advanced Computational Intelligence","volume":"32 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-09-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126486110","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}
