Nesta dissertação apresentamos métodos gulosos para a seleção de um subconjunto de funções heurísticas de um grande conjunto de possibilidades com o objetivo de reduzir o tempo de execução de algoritmos de busca. Trabalhos anteriores mostraram que a busca pode ser mais rápido se vários bancos de dados padrão menores são usados em vez de um grande banco de dados padrão. Nossos métodos são capazes de selecionar boas heurísticas de um grande conjunto de funções heurísticas para guiar uma A*. Implementamos nosso método em Fast Downward e mostrou empiricamente que produz heurísticas que superam o estado-da-arte de outros planejadores na Competição Internacional de Planejamento.
In this dissertation we present greedy methods for selecting a subset of heuristic functions from a large pool of possibilities with the objective of reducing the running time of search algorithms. Previous works showed that search can be faster if several smaller pattern databases are used instead of one large pattern database. Our methods are able to select good heuristics from a large set of heuristic functions to guide A* search. We implemented our method in Fast Downward and showed empirically that it produces heuristics which outperform the state-of-the-art planners in the International Planning Competition benchmarks.

Повний текст джерелаThe work presented in this thesis aimed to explored the cardiac response of the emotions of disgust and fear using visuo-auditory and olfactory stimuli. This thesis is organized into three major sections. The first section provides a brief revision of the theories of emotions, a brief description of automatic recognition of emotion based on ECG (electrocardiogram) and a review of chemosensory signals transmitted via body odors, as well as their effects in human’s physiological, cognitive and behavioral responses. The second section presents the four studies that were conducted. In Study 1we used movies to induce disgust, fear and neutral emotions and examined whether noise entropy of ECG can work as a potential biomarker to discriminate disgust from fear and neutral conditions. The results showed that it is possible to discriminate such emotions based on ECG noise entropy with 88% (p<.05) accuracy and that the median value of the disgust condition was higher when compared with the fear and neutral conditions. In Study 2 we developed and tested a classifier to automatically classify emotions using noise entropy of ECG. The performance of the classifier was good for fear and disgust identification (60% of sensitivity and 80% of specificity) and perfect for identification of the neutral condition (100%). In addition to the responses to the visual stimuli, we also evaluated the cardiac response using olfactory stimuli, namely the body odors collected in conditions of disgust, fear and neutral. To control for potential individual differences in disgust propensity and sensitivity on body odor perception, in Study 3 we examined the psychometric properties of the Portuguese version of DPSS-R. The results confirmed the existence of two distinct factors, disgust propensity and sensitivity. Moreover, the scale showed an acceptable convergent and discriminant validity and a satisfactory reliability. In the Study 4 we investigated how a BO prime affects the emotional tone of a subsequent BO message, on cardiac and subjective responses. The results demonstrated a reduction in heart rate variability (HRV-HF) when the participants smelled the neutral body odors after they smelled the disgust and fear body odors. The effect of order of presentation was also evident in the subjective ratings, with the neutral odors being perceived as more intense when the receivers smelled the neutral odors after they smelled the negative body odors. Such effects were independent of the pleasantness of the body odors. Finally, in the third section we presented the general discussion of the main results, the current limitations of the studies as well the future directions and the potential implications and applications of the results. Overall, the findings of the studies described in this thesis suggest that the ECG noise contains meaningful information that can allow emotion recognition and that the order of presentation of body odor can affect the cardiac response and subjective response of the receivers.
O trabalho apresentado nesta tese teve como objetivo explorar a resposta cardíaca das emoções de nojo e de medo usando estímulos visuo-auditivos e olfativos. Esta tese está organizada em três grandes partes. A primeira parte apresenta uma breve revisão das teorias das emoções, uma descrição sobre o reconhecimento automático da emoção baseado no sinal do ECG e uma revisão acerca dos sinais químico-sensoriais transmitidos pelos odores corporais, assim como os seus efeitos nas respostas fisiológicas, cognitivas e subjetivas. A segunda parte apresenta os quatro estudos que foram realizados. No Estudo 1 usámos filmes para induzir as respostas emocionais de nojo, de medo e neutras e examinámos se a entropia do ruído do sinal de ECG pode funcionar como um potencial biomarcador para discriminar as três condições emocionais. Os resultados mostraram que é possível discriminar as três condições emocionais usando a entropia do ruído do sinal de ECG com 88% (p < .05) de precisão e que o valor da mediana da condição de nojo foi superior, quando comparado com as condições de medo e neutras. No Estudo 2 usámos a entropia do ruído do sinal de ECG para desenvolver e testar um algoritmo que classifica as emoções automaticamente. O classificador obteve um bom desempenho na identificação de nojo e medo (com 60% de sensibilidade e 80% de especificidade) e um desempenho perfeito na condição neutra. Para além da resposta a estímulos visuais, também avaliámos a resposta cardíaca usando estímulos olfativos, nomeadamente os odores corporais de nojo, medo e neutros. De forma a controlar as diferenças individuais da propensão e sensibilidade ao nojo na perceção dos odores corporais, no Estudo 3 examinámos as características psicométricas da versão Portuguesa da DPSS-R. Os resultados confirmaram a existência de dois fatores independentes, propensão e sensibilidade ao nojo. Adicionalmente, a escala obteve uma validade convergente e discriminante aceitável e confiabilidade satisfatória. No Estudo 4, investigámos como é que os odores corporais recolhidos em condições emocionais específicas influenciam a resposta de odores corporais emocionais apresentados subsequentemente, ao nível subjetivo e da resposta cardíaca. Os resultados demonstraram uma redução da variabilidade da frequência cardíaca (HF-HRV) quando os participantes cheiraram os odores corporais neutros depois dos odores corporais de nojo e de medo. O efeito da ordem de apresentação dos odores corporais também se verificou nas avaliações subjetivas, sendo os odores corporais neutros avaliados como mais intensos depois da apresentação dos odores de medo e de nojo. Este efeito foi independente da agradabilidade atribuída aos odores corporais. Finalmente, na terceira parte, apresentamos a discussão geral dos principais resultados, as limitações dos estudos, bem como propostas para estudos futuros e potenciais implicações e aplicações dos resultados. Em síntese, os resultados dos estudos descritos neste trabalho sugerem que o ruído do ECG contém informações significativas que podem permitir reconhecer emoções e que a ordem de apresentação do odor corporal pode afetar a resposta cardíaca e subjetiva dos participantes.

Повний текст джерелаArtificial intelligence (AI) is already a fundamental component of computer games. In this context is emotions a growing part in simulating real life. The proposed emotional state module, provides a way for the game agents to select an action in real-time virtual environments. The modules function has been tested with the open-source strategy game ORTS. This thesis proposes a new approach for the design of an interacting network, similar to a spreading activation system, of emotional states that keeps track of emotion intensities changing and interacting over time. The network of emotions can represent any number of persisting states, such as moods, emotions and drives. Any emotional signal can affect every state positively or negatively. The states' response to emotional signals are influenced by the other states represented in the network. The network is contained within an emotional state module. This interactions between emotions are not the focus of much research, neither is the representation model. The focus tend to be on the mechanisms eliciting emotions and on how to express the emotions.

Повний текст джерелаSeveral psycho-physiological studies have provided evidences about the reciprocal influence between respiration and psychological variables but few attentions have been brought to the investigation of the expressive function of breathing sounds. Study 1 aims to build a multilayer analysis model that enable an acoustic description of breathing sounds. Audio and video recordings of breathing of two pairs of participants engaged in individual and joint performance were conducted. 1903 were video and audio analyzed and 3 sets of indexes were derived: respiratory, acoustic and interactive (aimed to relate partner’s respiratory behaviour during joint performances). Study 2 investigates what could be inferred about a person’s identity, emotional state and activity from the sound of his/her breathing. Moreover, it aims to verify whether imitation of breathing patterns improve the identification of those features. Ecological recordings of breathing sounds of people engaged in 6 activities and 4 emotions. 90 participants listen to the tracks and answer a questionnaire about such variables. Other 90 mimicked the tracks before answering. Participants were able to infer valuable information about the aspects under investigation with better results in the imitation task. Study 3 aims to describe the acoustic features of 6 emotional breathing patterns (anger, fear, sadness, disgust, tenderness and joy) and to see whether breathing together could strengthen the attunement process. 20 pairs of women participated. For each emotion, within the pair one participant read a story emotionally connoted and breathes as if she actually was in that situation. Her partner had to convey her closeness breathing in the same way. Finally they filled in a questionnaire. Different respiratory patterns were related to each emotion. Moreover the task influenced several attunement dimensions: synchronization, emotional decoding, emotional experience and perception of interpersonal similarity.

Повний текст джерелаNetwork Function Virtualization (NFV) is a novel concept that is reshaping the middlebox arena, shifting network functions (e.g. firewall, gateways, proxies) from specialized hardware appliances to software images running on commodity hardware. This concept has potential to make network function provision and operation more flexible and cost-effective, paramount in a world where deployed middleboxes may easily reach the order of hundreds. Despite recent research activity in the field, little has been done towards scalable and cost-efficient placement & chaining of virtual network functions (VNFs) – a key feature for the effective success of NFV. More specifically, existing strategies have neglected the chaining aspect of NFV (focusing on efficient placement only), failed to scale to hundreds of network functions and relied on unrealistic operational costs. In this thesis, we approach VNF placement and chaining as an optimization problem in the context of Inter- and Intra-datacenter. First, we formalize the Virtual Network Function Placement and Chaining (VNFPC) problem and propose an Integer Linear Programming (ILP) model to solve it. The goal is to minimize required resource allocation, while meeting network flow requirements and constraints. Then, we address scalability of VNFPC problem to solve large instances (i.e., thousands of NFV nodes) by proposing a fixand- optimize-based heuristic algorithm for tackling it. Our algorithm incorporates a Variable Neighborhood Search (VNS) meta-heuristic, for efficiently exploring the placement and chaining solution space. Further, we assess the performance limitations of typical NFV-based deployments and the incurred operational costs of commodity servers and propose an analytical model that accurately predict the operational costs for arbitrary service chain requirements. Then, we develop a general service chain intra-datacenter deployment mechanism (named OCM – Operational Cost Minimization) that considers both the actual performance of the service chains (e.g., CPU requirements) as well as the operational incurred cost. Our novel algorithm is based on an extension of the well-known reduction from weighted matching to min-cost flow problem. Finally, we tackle the problem of monitoring service chains in NFV-based environments. For that, we introduce the DNM (Distributed Network Monitoring) problem and propose an optimization model to solve it. DNM allows service chain segments to be independently monitored, which allows specialized network monitoring requirements to be met in a efficient and coordinated way. Results show that the proposed ILP model for the VNFPC problem leads to a reduction of up to 25% in end-to-end delays (in comparison to chainings observed in traditional infrastructures) and an acceptable resource over-provisioning limited to 4%. Also, we provide strong evidences that our fix-and-optimize based heuristic is able to find feasible, high-quality solutions efficiently, even in scenarios scaling to thousands of VNFs. Further, we provide indepth insights on network performance metrics (such as throughput, CPU utilization and packet processing) and its current limitations while considering typical deployment strategies. Our OCM algorithm reduces significantly operational costs when compared to the de-facto standard placement mechanisms used in Cloud systems. Last, our DNM model allows finer grained network monitoring with limited overheads. By coordinating the placement of monitoring sinks and the forwarding of network monitoring traffic, DNM can reduce the number of monitoring sinks and the network resource consumption (54% lower than a traditional method).

Повний текст джерелаThis study focuses on the way emotional aspects appear in the verbal part of press advertisements in German, with no intention to confirm the existence of emotional or rational advertising, but rather to describe the complementarity of these concepts, on both a functional and a formal level. To that end, its thematic development has been used as an indicator of the textual organization, since it allows analysis of the semantic-syntactic resources relating them to the communicative functions, from which the connections between sentence type and sentence mode have been established. Furthermore, this choice has allowed reveal the indirect realization forms, signs of a persuasive strategy. Finally, in order to analyze the persuasive strategies of emotional involvement, a catalogue has been elaborated with categories revealing the existing attachment between the interlocutors (proximity or distance) and the use of empathy. The study data were extracted from a verbal language corpus. It consists of 178 advertisements, each of these classified into a thematic development. All advertisements were transcribed and lemmatized to ensure sufficient representativeness. The analysis results do not deviate from the traditional proposal of textual typology; they show a preeminence of descriptive strategies in advertising discourse formulation. Furthermore, it has been substantiated the existence of emotional aspects, both by means of the expressive function and by means of the persuasive strategies of emotional involvement, thereby stressing its role as a complement to the information transfer, which has also been very prominent. These conclusions are added to the contributions of the so called emotional intelligence, which draws the attention to the importance of emotions at decisiontaking. Likewise, the presence of emotionality reflects indisputable attributes of contemporary society, focused on entertainment and its quest for emotions. Finally, it is relevant to mention the usefulness of the material as teaching material in the classroom, both for its content and its communicative frame, as well as the potential application of its analysis method in other fields.

Повний текст джерела[CA] En l'actualitat, un dels principals desafiaments als quals s'enfronten les grans àrees metropolitanes és la congestió provocada pel trànsit, que s'ha convertit en un problema important al qual s'enfronten les autoritats de cada ciutat. Per a abordar aquest problema és necessari implementar una solució eficient per a controlar el trànsit que genere beneficis per als ciutadans, com reduir els temps de viatge dels vehicles i, en conseqüència, el consum de combustible, el soroll, i la contaminació ambiental. De fet, en analitzar adequadament la demanda de trànsit, és possible predir les condicions futures del trànsit, i utilitzar aqueixa informació per a l'optimització de les rutes preses pels vehicles. Aquest enfocament pot ser especialment efectiu si s'aplica en el context dels vehicles autònoms, que tenen un comportament més predictible, i això permet als administradors de la ciutat mitigar els efectes de la congestió, com és la contaminació, en millorar el flux de trànsit de manera totalment centralitzada. La validació d'aquest enfocament generalment requereix l'ús de simulacions que haurien de ser el més realistes possible. No obstant això, aconseguir alts graus de realisme pot ser complex quan els patrons de trànsit reals, definits a través d'una matriu d'Origen/Destinació (O-D) per als vehicles en una ciutat, són desconeguts, com ocorre la majoria de les vegades. Per tant, la primera contribució d'aquesta tesi és desenvolupar una heurística iterativa per a millorar el modelatge de la congestió de trànsit; a partir dels mesuraments de bucle d'inducció reals fetes per l'Ajuntament de València (Espanya), vam poder generar una matriu O-D per a la simulació de trànsit que s'assembla a la distribució de trànsit real. Si fóra possible caracteritzar l'estat del trànsit predient les condicions futures del trànsit per a optimitzar la ruta dels vehicles automatitzats, i si es pogueren prendre aquestes mesures per a mitigar de manera preventiva els efectes de la congestió amb els seus problemes relacionats, es podria millorar el flux de trànsit en general. Per tant, la segona contribució d'aquesta tesi és desenvolupar una Equació de Predicció de Trànsit per a caracteritzar el comportament en els diferents carrers de la ciutat en termes de temps de viatge respecte al volum de trànsit, i aplicar una regressió logística a aqueixes dades per a predir les condicions futures del trànsit. La tercera i última contribució d'aquesta tesi apunta directament al nou paradigma de gestió de trànsit previst. Es tracta d'un servidor de rutes capaç de manejar tot el trànsit en una ciutat, i equilibrar els fluxos de trànsit tenint en compte les condicions de congestió del trànsit presents i futures. Per tant, realitzem un estudi de simulació amb dades reals de congestió de trànsit a la ciutat de València (Espanya), per a demostrar com es pot millorar el flux de trànsit en un dia típic mitjançant la solució proposada. Els resultats experimentals mostren que la nostra solució, combinada amb una actualització freqüent de les condicions del trànsit en el servidor de rutes, és capaç d'aconseguir millores substancials en termes de velocitat faig una mitjana i de temps de trajecte, tots dos indicadors d'un grau menor de congestió i d'una fluïdesa millor del trànsit.
[EN] Currently, one of the main challenges that large metropolitan areas have to face is traffic congestion, which has become an important problem faced by city authorities. To address this problem, it becomes necessary to implement an efficient solution to control traffic that generates benefits for citizens, such as reducing vehicle journey times and, consequently, use of fuel, noise and environmental pollution. In fact, by properly analyzing traffic demand, it becomes possible to predict future traffic conditions, and to use that information for the optimization of the routes taken by vehicles. Such an approach becomes especially effective if applied in the context of autonomous vehicles, which have a more predictable behavior, thus enabling city management entities to mitigate the effects of traffic congestion and pollution by improving the traffic flow in a city in a fully centralized manner. Validating this approach typically requires the use of simulations, which should be as realistic as possible. However, achieving high degrees of realism can be complex when the actual traffic patterns, defined through an Origin/Destination (O-D) matrix for the vehicles in a city, are unknown, as occurs most of the times. Thus, the first contribution of this thesis is to develop an iterative heuristic for improving traffic congestion modeling; starting from real induction loop measurements made available by the City Hall of Valencia, Spain, we were able to generate an O-D matrix for traffic simulation that resembles the real traffic distribution. If it were possible to characterize the state of traffic by predicting future traffic conditions for optimizing the route of automated vehicles, and if these measures could be taken to preventively mitigate the effects of congestion with its related problems, the overall traffic flow could be improved. Thereby, the second contribution of this thesis was to develop a Traffic Prediction Equation to characterize the different streets of a city in terms of travel time with respect to the vehicle load, and applying logistic regression to those data to predict future traffic conditions. The third and last contribution of this thesis towards our envisioned traffic management paradigm was a route server capable of handling all the traffic in a city, and balancing traffic flows by accounting for present and future traffic congestion conditions. Thus, we perform a simulation study using real data of traffic congestion in the city of Valencia, Spain, to demonstrate how the traffic flow in a typical day can be improved using our proposed solution. Experimental results show that our proposed solution, combined with frequent updating of traffic conditions on the route server, is able to achieve substantial improvements in terms of average travel speeds and travel times, both indicators of lower degrees of congestion and improved traffic fluidity.

The major difficult of problem solving processes is the oversized search space corresponding to a complicated game state; therefore, efficient heuristics is always important to search algorithms. In this thesis, we conduct a series of novel experiments that train artificial neural networks to serve as heuristic functions. Adaptable heuristics is expected to reduce the states being retrieved and thus can make the problem solving process more effective. Our experiments divide into two parts. The first part implemented Greedy Algorithms, and improved the heuristics thereof by consulting all the best children’s absolute positions and relative positions respectively. The basic idea is to move the states with worthless offspring backwords in the candidate queue; this way, we can avoid quantities of unnecessary retrievals on these states. The experimental results indicated that this method can reduce the searching nodes and time. However, the solutions obtained by greedy search were eventually much worst then the best solutions. In the second part of our experiments, we conducted A* Algorithms. Initially, artificial neural networks were successfully confirmed to simulate the currently known most effective heuristic function. Then we went a step futher to adjust the target values of the states that were involved in the near best solutions. Training like this enabled the near- best solutions to be found quickly. The experimental results revealed that the solutions obtained by this method are very close to the shortest path and both the retrieved nodes and search time were significantly reduced.

With the demand for various types of electronic products tend to be light, thin, short and small. The precision of parts and the density between the parts of the printed circuit board will increase. In order to control product cost effectively and enhance production quality and efficiency, the manufacturers must find the advanced manufacturing technology to improve surface mount technology. Most surface mount technology problems are correlated to solder paste printing (Pan et al. 1999 , Huang 2010, Tsai 2008), and solder paste volume is an important quality measure of solder paste printing process. Therefore, controlling the solder paste volume is a key production technologies to obtain high–yield rate and maintain production effectiveness. Controlling the solder paste volume is an operating window problem, plenty of parameters will affect the output; if we only rely on engineer’s experiences to determine the values, the defect rate may increase owing to the unstable manufacturing process. This study proposes a systematic procedure for parameter optimization of the solder paste printing process. First, historical data and engineering knowledge are used to determine the significant factors. Second, the ideal squeegee pressure and optimal parameter settings are determined by using Taguchi methods. Also, we propose utilizing back-propagation neural network and desirability function and integrating genetic algorithm, particle swarm optimization, and simulate anneal to obtain the optimal parameter combination. A real case was implemented and analyzed to demonstrate the proposed approach’s effectiveness. The results show that our proposed method can reduce the waste of solder paste volume and substantially increase the operation window width in order to improve product quality.

Повний текст джерелаEn el diseño actual de filtros activos una de las opciones de implementación es la denominada RC (resistencia/capacitor), en la cual el filtro se construye a partir de amplificadores operacionales, resistencias y capacitores. Para satisfacer el cumplimiento de las especificaciones del filtro resulta de gran importancia la selección de los componentes discretos del filtro. Dado el amplio espectro de valores que los componentes pueden tomar, resulta ineficiente enumerar todas las combinaciones posibles y seleccionar entre ellas la mejor. En este trabajo usamos una metaheurística denominada ACOR la cual permite resolver este tipo de problemas combinatorios con restricciones en tiempos de ejecución razonables al tiempo que garantiza que las soluciones obtenidas satisfacen todas las restricciones aunque pueden no ser de la mejor calidad (donde la calidad se define respecto a alguna característica dependiente de los valores elegidos).
In the current active filter design, one of the possible implementations is the so called RC, in which the filter is built with operational amplifiers, resistors and capacitors. In order to satisfy the filter specifications it’s of great importance the selection of the discrete components that make up the filter. Given the wide range of values that these components can take, it results inefficient to enumerate all possible combinations and select amongst them the best one. In this work we use a metaheuristic called ACOR which allows to solve this kind of constrained combinatorial optimization problems in reasonable time while guaranteeing that the obtained solutions satisfy all the restrictions, though they might not be of the best quality (where quality is defined with respect to some characteristic that depends on the chosen values).

Повний текст джерелаNormal, or resilient, grief has often been neglected in the literature, overshadowed by the greater number of studies on pathological grief. This fact, congruent with the trend towards a culture of medicalization, can explain the normalization of the idea of grief as uselessly painful, or even harmful, a nuisance to productivity and functioning. On the other hand, there has been a growing interest in the processes of normal grief in recent years, the idea that resilient grief is more common than pathological grief having only been recently supported by empirical research (Bonanno, 2009). However, the function and nature of grief-related emotions, which are often seen as symptoms, still isn’t clear. Sadness, contrarily to common knowledge, seems to be a healthy characteristic of resilient grief, and could have an adaptive function, whereas distress and depression would evoke the protest and despair phases of the separation between the child and her attachment figure. Thus, these three affective experiences would be qualitatively, and not only quantitatively, distinct. This thesis aims to present, in its first part, a theoretical model of both resilient and pathological grief, elaborating on the function and place of sadness, distress and depression. These two types of grief are presented as the extremes of a continuum, in between which any number of variations could exist. Sadness, in this model, is depicted as a useful emotion that plays a part in the acceptation of loss and in the creation of a meaning. In its second, empirical part, the subjective experience of sadness in resilient grieving adults who lost a parent is observed. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with six participants, and the results were analyzed using Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis (IPA). Results show that sadness was experienced as tolerable, adaptive, and making sense, even if it was painful. As grief is never an isolated experience in life, circumstances and concurrent events, and variations in mentalization abilities, can explain the presence of other emotions or of somatic symptoms. Sadness, however, seems to be an essential ingredient of resilient grief, where the person remains functional, but is sad only by shorts bursts, coming in waves. The clinical and diagnostic implications of these results and of the theoretical model presented in this thesis are discussed.
