Rolling System Design Using Evolutionary Sequential Process Optimization
2008
IEEE Transactions on Evolutionary Computation
The design of a rolling system is a multistage process optimization problem involving sequential relationship between consecutive stages. ...
This paper describes the optimization of a real-life rolling system design using a genetic algorithm (GA)-based approach capable of dealing with the sequential nature of this problem. ...
Since the design of a rolling system is characterized by its multistaged sequential nature, this paper proposes an optimization approach for handling this challenge using GAs.

LSH banding for large-scale retrieval with memory and recall constraints
2009
2009 IEEE International Conference on Acoustics, Speech and Signal Processing
Locality Sensitive Hashing (LSH) is widely used for efficient retrieval of candidate matches in very large audio, video, and image systems. ...
However, extremely large reference databases necessitate a guaranteed limit on the memory used by the table lookup itself, no matter how the entries crowd different parts of the signature space, a guarantee ...
We propose to use LSH, with off-line optimization of the hash subspaces, in order to minimize the worst-case expected crowding. ...

Weighing Counts: Sequential Crowd Counting by Reinforcement Learning
[article]
2020
arXiv
pre-print
We formulate counting as a sequential decision problem and present a novel crowd counting model solvable by deep reinforcement learning. ...
By virtually placing a crowd image on one side of a scale, LibraNet (agent) sequentially learns to place appropriate weights on the other side to match the crowd count. ...
A possible explanation is that, because of the huge searching space, the agent cannot search for actions smoothly. ...

Visual Search Without Selective Attention: A Cognitive Architecture Account
2018

2015 IEEE/RSJ International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems (IROS)
In this paper, we present Dynamically Pruned A* (DPA*), an extension of A* for re-planning optimal paths in dynamic navigation meshes. ...
Our algorithm is memory-friendly and robust against structural changes in the graph, which makes it suitable for crowds in dynamic navigation meshes. ...
algorithms are efficient in other applications, but they are not designed for large crowds or structural changes in the search space. ...

Your own face is no more precious than others': Evidence from the simultaneous–sequential paradigm
2015
Psychonomic Bulletin & Review
A similar pattern of results was found when participants searched for someone else's face, although there was a decline in the overall performance. ...
Importantly, either all of the search stimuli were presented simultaneously or two different subsets of the stimuli were presented sequentially. ...
This processing efficiency for self-face search was explained by the robust representation of familiar faces. ...
