Using Topic Models to Mine Everyday Object Usage Routines Through Connected IoT Sensors

With the tremendous progress in sensing and IoT infrastructure, it is foreseeable that IoT systems will soon be available for commercial markets, such as in people's homes. In this paper, we present a deployment study using sensors attached to household objects to capture the resourcefulness of three individuals. The concept of...

BedBasedEcho

The core challenge of the BedBasedEcho BEP project is to create an algorithm to find the heart, and apply it on a robotic echocardiography solution. The team has found multiple complex solutions that are related to this problem, and has extracted useful information from these solutions to apply to this problem. However, some of these complex...

Surrogate modelling for multi-carrier distribution networks

The thesis mainly concentrates on exploring the suitability and applicability of surrogate models for a multi-carrier energy system (MCES). The climate crisis is being paid more attention owing to its notable effects on the environment globally. For the sake of facing the challenge, the European Union (EU) has developed different strategies. One...

Code Smells for Machine Learning Applications

The popularity of machine learning has wildly expanded in recent years. Machine learning techniques have been heatedly studied in academia and applied in the industry to create business value. However, there is a lack of guidelines for code quality in machine learning applications. In particular, code smells have rarely been studied in this...

Automated Detection of Code Smells for Machine Learning Applications

The popularity of machine learning has wildly expanded in recent years. Machine learning techniques have been heatedly studied in academia and applied in the industry to create business value. However, there is a lack of guidelines for code quality in machine learning applications. Although machine learning code is usually integrated as a small...

On Fine-grained Temporal Emotion Recognition in Video: How to Trade off Recognition Accuracy with Annotation Complexity?

Fine-grained emotion recognition is the process of automatically identifying the emotions of users at a fine granularity level, typically in the time intervals of 0.5s to 4s according to the expected duration of emotions. Previous work mainly focused on developing algorithms to recognize only one emotion for a video based on the user feedback...
