Moreover, a fast approximate diffusion procedure that enables algorithms of spectral clustering type in Spark environment is introduced. In addition, the proposed algorithm is benchmarked against Spectral clustering. Results of applying the method to real-life data allow concluding that the implementation scales well, yet demonstrating good performance for densely connected graphs.","PeriodicalId":286312,"journal":{"name":"2017 Evolving and Adaptive Intelligent Systems (EAIS)","volume":"99 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124098109","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}

A state feedback control structure is first designed to stabilize the nonlinear process by linearization at certain operating points, and the evolving T-S fuzzy models are next derived for the stabilized closed-loop system. The rule bases and the parameters of the T-S fuzzy models are evolved by an incremental online identification algorithm (OIA). Real-time experiments are conducted in order to validate the evolving T-S fuzzy models that give the sphere position in magnetic levitation system laboratory equipment. The experimental results prove the very good performance of the T-S fuzzy models in terms of output responses and root mean square error values. The performance comparison with similar T-S fuzzy models evolved by another incremental OIA and three nature-inspired optimization algorithms is included.","PeriodicalId":286312,"journal":{"name":"2017 Evolving and Adaptive Intelligent Systems (EAIS)","volume":"15 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127672199","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}

Most of the current anomaly detection algorithms follow the general idea to classify an anomaly as a significant deviation from the prediction. In this paper we present a comparative study where several online anomaly detection algorithms are compared on the large Yahoo Webscope S5 anomaly benchmark. We show that a relatively Simple Online Regression Anomaly Detector (SORAD) is quite successful compared to other anomaly detectors. We discuss the importance of several adaptive and online elements of the algorithm and their influence on the overall anomaly detection accuracy.","PeriodicalId":286312,"journal":{"name":"2017 Evolving and Adaptive Intelligent Systems (EAIS)","volume":"91 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124613212","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}

Lack of robustness yields inadequate performance and in practice may induce instability. This paper addresses an approach to improve the robustness of feedback linearized systems using a model reference adaptive control mechanism with an evolving participatory learning procedure. The granular evolving fuzzy robust feedback linearization approach is a way to robustly and efficiently control unknown nonlinear systems around given operating points. The result is a robust closed-loop control approach in which participatory learning is employed to estimate unknown nonlinearities online to cancel their effects in the feedback linearized system. A simulation example using a surge tank, a widely studied benchmark in the literature, shows that the performance of the granular evolving robust feedback linearization is higher than classic feedback linearization, fuzzy model reference, and indirect adaptive fuzzy control approaches.","PeriodicalId":286312,"journal":{"name":"2017 Evolving and Adaptive Intelligent Systems (EAIS)","volume":"28 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114740958","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}

Both controllers have been tested on a thermodynamic system exposed to a disturbance. The experiment shows that the adaptive controller handles the disturbance faster and more accurate.","PeriodicalId":286312,"journal":{"name":"2017 Evolving and Adaptive Intelligent Systems (EAIS)","volume":"48 5 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131805538","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}

Lack of objective quantitative approaches could lead to biased conclusions and selection of sub-optimal therapies. However, established methods of modern psychophysiology indicate possibility of objective physiological measurement of certain psychological states and their dynamics. Nevertheless treatment personalization and optimization is very difficult task even in medicine, where many objective diagnostic tools are available. Previously we have proposed generic quantitative framework capable of discovering optimal combination of physiological indicators for early detection of emerging pathologies and efficient multi-expert characterization of complex and rare states. Ability of implicit encoding of great variety of patterns and regimes in training phase makes our system evolving in nature and capable of robust novelty detection without any formal online learning algorithms. Here we argue that the same approach could be also applicable to objective psychophysiological monitoring and fast discovery of effective personalized therapies in applied and clinical psychology. The web-based version of our system will be made available for researchers and psychology practitioners.","PeriodicalId":286312,"journal":{"name":"2017 Evolving and Adaptive Intelligent Systems (EAIS)","volume":"82 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133794061","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}
