Due to their strong generalization capability, neural networks have been proven to be very powerful for the task, but their applicability is often limited by their intrinsic black-box nature. Recently, temporal decision trees have been shown to be a serious alternative to neural networks for the same task in terms of classification performances, while attaining higher levels of transparency and interpretability. In this work, we propose an initial approach to neural-symbolic temporal decision trees, that is, an hybrid method that leverages on both the ability of neural networks of capturing temporal patterns and the flexibility of temporal decision trees of taking decisions on intervals based on (possibly, externally computed) temporal features. While based on a proof-of-concept implementation, in our experiments on public datasets, neural-symbolic temporal decision trees show promising results. .","PeriodicalId":75226,"journal":{"name":"Time","volume":"5 1","pages":"13:1-13:15"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87036100","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 particular, CER queries match incoming events on the basis of their content; where they occur in the input stream; and how this order relates to other events in the stream. CER has been successfully applied in diverse domains such as maritime monitoring, network intrusion detection, industrial control systems and real-time analytics, among others. In this talk, I will survey our recent work on developing a formal framework for specifying and evaluating CER queries. This framework consist of a formal, core query language called Complex Event Logic (CEL) for specifying CER queries [4]. In contrast to previous proposals, CEL has a compositional and denotational semantics, and encompasses all operators that are considered “common base operators” in the literature. Using CEL, we have been able to get a better understanding of the relative expressiveness of these operators as well as the impact of common evaluation heuristics such as selection policies The framework also consists of an formal computational for CEL,","PeriodicalId":75226,"journal":{"name":"Time","volume":"101 1","pages":"3:1-3:2"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"77365568","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}

Structured events are typically defined in terms of (a subset of) simpler, atomic events and a set of temporal relation between them. Temporal Event Detection (TED) is the task of detecting structured and atomic events within data streams, most often text or video sequences, and has numerous applications, from video surveillance to sports analytics. Existing deep learning approaches solve TED task by implicitly learning the temporal correlations among events from data. As consequence, these approaches often fail in ensuring a consistent prediction in terms of the relationship between structured and atomic events. On the other hand, neuro-symbolic approaches have shown their capability to constrain the output of the neural networks to be consistent with respect to the background knowledge of the domain. In this paper, we propose a neuro-symbolic approach for TED in a real world scenario involving sports activities. We show how by incorporating simple knowledge involving the relative order of atomic events and constraints on their duration, the approach substantially outperforms a fully neural solution in terms of recognition accuracy, when little or even no supervision is available on the atomic events.","PeriodicalId":75226,"journal":{"name":"Time","volume":"1 1","pages":"12:1-12:19"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90075722","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}

Perturbed environments, such as the real world, are non-deterministic and filled with uncertainty. Hence, the execution of a temporal plan presents several challenges and the employed solution often consists of replanning when the execution fails. In this paper, we propose a novel algorithm, named Olisipo, which aims to maximise the probability of a successful execution of a temporal plan in perturbed environments. To achieve this, a probabilistic model is used in the execution of the plan, instead of in the building of the plan. This approach enables Olisipo to dynamically adapt the plan to changes in the environment. In addition to this, the execution of the plan is also adapted to the probability of successfully executing each action. Olisipo was compared to a simple dispatcher and it was shown that it consistently had a higher probability of successfully reaching a goal state in uncertain environments, performed fewer replans and also executed fewer actions. Hence, Olisipo offers a substantial improvement in performance for disturbed environments. 2012 ACM Subject Classification Computing methodologies → Robotic planning","PeriodicalId":75226,"journal":{"name":"Time","volume":"4 1","pages":"15:1-15:15"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"74550069","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}
