Quality-Constrained Encoding Optimization for Omnidirectional Video Streaming

Pascal Frossard, Roberto Gerson De Albuquerque Azevedo

Omnidirectional video streaming is usually implemented based on the representations of tiles, where the tiles are obtained by splitting the video frame into several rectangular areas and each tile is converted into multiple representations with different r ...

Development of a Robotic Microsurgeon for Embryonic Research

Ece Özelçi

Understanding how biological matter takes its shape is instrumental to biology, bioengineering, medicine, and bioinspired engineering. Gaining information on the principles of morphogenesis could enable clinicians to correct developmental abnormalities, ev ...

Pareto-like sequential sampling heuristic for global optimisation

Katrin Beyer, Mahmoud S. M. Shaqfa

In this paper, we propose a simple global optimisation algorithm inspired by Pareto’s principle. This algorithm samples most of its solutions within prominent search domains and is equipped with a self-adaptive mechanism to control the dynamic tightening o ...

Robust Adaptive Decision Making: Bayesian Optimization and Beyond

Ilija Bogunovic

The central task in many interactive machine learning systems can be formalized as the sequential optimization of a black-box function. Bayesian optimization (BO) is a powerful model-based framework for \emph{adaptive} experimentation, where the primary go ...

Delay-Power-Rate-Distortion Optimization of Video Representations for Dynamic Adaptive Streaming

Pascal Frossard, Laura Toni

Dynamic adaptive streaming addresses user heterogeneity by providing multiple encoded representations at different rates and/or resolutions for the same video content. For delay-sensitive applications, such as live streaming, there is however a stringent r ...

Complexity Constrained Representation Selection for Dynamic Adaptive Streaming

Pascal Frossard, Laura Toni

In this paper, we propose a representation selection optimization problem for complexity constrained adaptive video streaming that properly takes into account the different complexity-rate-distortion (C-R-D) characteristics of the videos when implementing ...

Redesigning Water Distribution Networks Using a Guided Evolutionary Approach

Anton Schleiss, José Pedro Gamito de Saldanha Calado Matos

The paper describes and discusses the application of a guided evolutionary approach for the optimization of water distribution networks. Initially developed for the Battle of the Water Networks II (BWN-II), the approach was adapted and improved for competi ...

A green productivity based process planning system for a machining process

Ian Anthony Stroud

In the metal cutting industry, manufacturers have strived to increase energy efficiency and to reduce environmental burdens through the use of dust collectors and waste disposers. It is more beneficial and efficient to apply the front-of-pipe technology th ...

Catch Me if You Can: Adaptation from Standing Genetic Variation to a Moving Phenotypic Optimum

Sebastian Matuszewski

Adaptation lies at the heart of Darwinian evolution. Accordingly, numerous studies have tried to provide a formal framework for the description of the adaptive process. Of these, two complementary modeling approaches have emerged: While so-called adaptive- ...

Evolving team compositions by agent swapping

Dario Floreano, Laurent Keller, Pawel Lichocki

Optimizing collective behavior in multiagent systems requires algorithms to find not only appropriate individual behaviors but also a suitable composition of agents within a team. Over the last two decades, evolutionary methods have been shown to be a prom ...

Information-Theoretic Regret Bounds for Gaussian Process Optimization in the Bandit Setting

Andreas Krause, Matthias Seeger

Many applications require optimizing an unknown, noisy function that is expensive to evaluate. We formalize this task as a multiarmed bandit problem, where the payoff function is either sampled from a Gaussian process (GP) or has low norm in a reproducing ...

Genetic Representation of Adaptive Neural Controllers

Peter Dürr

The manual design of adaptive controllers for robotic systems that face unpredictable environmental changes is often challenging. There is thus a growing interest in the development of automatic design tools to assist control engineers. One of the most com ...

Method and device for the genetic representation and evolution of networks

Dario Floreano, Claudio Mattiussi

A method for the genetic representation of a network (100), the network having one or more devices (20, 30, 70, 80), each device comprising at least one terminal (21, 22, 23; 71, 72) connected to at least one other terminal (21, 22, 23; 71, 72, 61) by a li ...

Evolution of Spiking Neural Circuits in Autonomous Mobile Robots

Dario Floreano, Jean-Christophe Zufferey, Claudio Mattiussi

We describe evolution of spiking neural architectures to control navigation of autonomous mobile robots. Experimental results with simple fitness functions indicate that evolution can rapidly generate spiking circuits capable of navigating in textured envi ...

Multi-cellular reconfigurable circuits : evolution, morphogenesis and learning

Daniel Roggen

Bio-inspired electronic circuits have the potential to address some of the shortcomings of conventional electronic circuits, such as lack of applicability to ill-defined problems, of robustness, or of adaptivity to unexpectedly changing environments. Bio-i ...
