Autonomous Binarized Focal Loss Enhanced Model Compression Design Using Tensor Train Decomposition.

Deep learning methods have exhibited the great capacity to process object detection tasks, offering a practical and viable approach in many applications. When researchers have advanced deep learning models to improve their performance, the model derived from the algorithmic improvement may itself require complementary increases in computational and power demands. Recently, model compression and pruning techniques have received more attention to promote the wide employment of the DNN model.

Survivability Modeling and Resource Planning for Self-Repairing Reconfigurable Device Fabrics.

A resilient system design problem is formulated as the quantification of uncommitted reconfigurable resources required for a system of components to survive its lifetime within mission availability specifications. We show that this survivability metric can be calculated according to the residual functionality obtained from pools of dynamically configurable elements constituting the amorphous resource pool (ARP). The ARP is depleted based on the failure rate to replenish the functionality lost in a reconfigurable fabric due to the occurrence of permanent faults during the mission lifetime.

Pipelining of Fuzzy ARTMAP without matchtracking: correctness, performance bound, and Beowulf evaluation.

Fuzzy ARTMAP neural networks have been proven to be good classifiers on a variety of classification problems. However, the time that Fuzzy ARTMAP takes to converge to a solution increases rapidly as the number of patterns used for training is increased. In this paper we examine the time Fuzzy ARTMAP takes to converge to a solution and we propose a coarse grain parallelization technique, based on a pipeline approach, to speed-up the training process.

Learning tactical human behavior through observation of human performance.

It is widely accepted that the difficulty and expense involved in acquiring the knowledge behind tactical behaviors has been one limiting factor in the development of simulated agents representing adversaries and teammates in military and game simulations. Several researchers have addressed this problem with varying degrees of success. The problem mostly lies in the fact that tactical knowledge is difficult to elicit and represent through interactive sessions between the model developer and the subject matter expert.

Data-partitioning using the Hilbert space filling curves: effect on the speed of convergence of Fuzzy ARTMAP for large database problems.

The Fuzzy ARTMAP algorithm has been proven to be one of the premier neural network architectures for classification problems. One of the properties of Fuzzy ARTMAP, which can be both an asset and a liability, is its capacity to produce new nodes (templates) on demand to represent classification categories. This property allows Fuzzy ARTMAP to automatically adapt to the database without having to a priori specify its network size.
