Muhammad Haris, "Visual Localization and Mapping in Seasonally Changing Outdoor Environments", UAS Frankfurt, 2023.

Abstract

Visual localization and mapping refer to locating an agent in a scene and creating a representation of its surroundings using a camera as the primary source of perception. Localization and mapping are the fundamental prerequisites for autonomous robots, self-driving cars, and augmented reality applications. Despite decades of research and development in this domain, even state-of-the-art vision-based approaches strug- gle to perform in chall...

Qiqi Liu, Felix Lanfermann, Tobias Rodemann, Markus Olhofer, Yaochu Jin, "Surrogate-Assisted Many-objective Optimization of Building Energy Management", IEEE Computational Intelligence Magazine, vol. 18, no. 4, pp. 14-28, 2023.

Abstract

Building energy management usually involves a number of objectives such as investment costs, thermal comfort, system resilience, battery life, and many others. However, most existing studies merely consider optimizing less than three objectives since it becomes increasingly difficult as the number of objective increases. In addition, the optimization of building energy management heavily relies on time-consuming energy simulators, posing great ch...

Guo Yu, Yaochu Jin, Markus Olhofer, Qiqi Liu, Wenli Du, "Solution Set Augmentation for Knee Identification in Multiobjective Decision Analysis", IEEE Transactions on Cybernetics, vol. 53, no. 4, pp. 2480-2493, 2023.

Abstract

In multiobjective decision making, most knee identification algorithms implicitly assume that the given solutions are well distributed and can provide sufficient information for identifying knee solutions. However, this assumption may fail to hold when the number of objectives is large or when the shape of the Pareto front is complex. To address the above issues, we propose a knee-oriented solution augmentation (KSA) framework that converts the P...

David Rother, Jan Peters, Thomas Weisswange, "Disentangling Interaction using Maximum Entropy Reinforcement Learning in Multi-Agent Systems", 26th European Conference on Artificial Intelligence (ECAI 2023), pp. 1994-2001, 2023.

Abstract

Research on multi-agent interaction involving multiple humans is still in its infancy. Most recent approaches have focused on environments with collaboration-focused human behavior, or providing only a small, defined set of situations. When deploying robots in general human-inhabited environments in the future it will be unlikely that all intentions can be guaranteed to fit a pre-defined model of collaboration while one might still expect a rob...

Hesham Elsayed, "Computer-Supported Posture and Movement Guidance - Investigating visual/visuotactile guidance and informing the design of vibrotactile body-worn interfaces", Technical University of Darmstadt, Technical University of Darmstadt, pp. 247, 2023.

Abstract

This dissertation explores the use of interactive systems to support movement guidance, with applications in various fields such as sports, dance, physiotherapy, and immersive sketching. The research focuses on visual, haptic, and visuohaptic approaches and aims to overcome the limitations of traditional guidance methods, such as dependence on an expert and high costs for the novice. The main contributions of the thesis are (1) an evaluatio...

Xilu Wang, Yaochu Jin, Sebastian Schmitt, Markus Olhofer, "Alleviating Search Bias in Evolutionary Bayesian Optimization with Many Heterogeneous Objectives", IEEE Transactions on Systems, Man and Cybernetics: Systems, 2023.

Abstract

Multi-objective optimization problems whose objectives have different evaluation costs are commonly seen in the real world. Such problems are now known as multi-objective optimization problems with heterogeneous objectives (HE-MOPs). So far, however, only a few studies have been reported to address HE-MOPs, and most of them focus on bi-objective problems with one fast objective and one slow objective. In this work, we aim to deal with HE-MOPs hav...

Noah Wach, Manuel Rudolph, Fred Jendrzejewski, Sebastian Schmitt, "Data Re-Uploading on with a single qudit", Quantum Machine Intelligence, 2023.

Abstract

Quantum two-level systems, i.e. qubits, form the basis for most quantum machine learning approaches that have been proposed throughout the years. However, in some cases, higher dimensional quantum systems may prove to be advantageous. Here, we explore the capabilities of multi-level quantum systems, so-called qudits, for their use in a quantum machine learning context. We formulate classification and regression problems with the data re-uploadi...

Thomas Weisswange, Joel Schwartz von Sproutel, Aaron Horowitz, Jens Schmüdderich, "Telepresence Lantern - Designing an Immersive Video-Mediated Communication Device for Older Adults", ArXiv.org, 2023.

Abstract

We present the “Telepresence Lantern” concept, developed to provide opportunities for older adults to stay in contact with remote family and friends. It provides a new approach to video-mediated communication, designed to facilitate natural and ambient interactions with simplified call setup. Video communication is an established way to enhance social connectedness, but traditional approaches create a high friction ...

Nikolas Hohmann, Sebastian Brulin, Jürgen Adamy, Markus Olhofer, "Three-Dimensional Urban Path Planning for Aerial Vehicles Regarding Many Objectives", IEEE Open Journal on Intelligent Transportation Systems, vol. 4, pp. 639-352, 2023.

Abstract

Planning flight paths for unmanned aerial vehicles in urban areas requires consideration of safety, legal, and economic aspects as well as attention to social factors for gaining public acceptance. To solve this many-objective path planning problem in the three-dimensional space, we propose a hybrid framework combining an exact Dijkstra search and a metaheuristic evolutionary optimization. Given a start and an endpoint, we optimize a path regardi...
