Model Predictive Control with Uncertainty in Human Driven Systems

AAAI Conferences

Human driven systems present a unique optimization challenge for robot control. Generally, operators of these systems behave rationally given environmental factors and desired goals. However, information available to subsystem controllers is often incomplete, and the operator becomes more difficult to model without this input information. In this work we present a data-driven, nonparametric model to capture both expectation and uncertainty of the upcoming duty for a subsystem controller. This model is a modified k-nearest neighbor regressor used to generate weighted samples from a distribution of upcoming duty, which are then exploited to generate an optimal control. We test the model on a simulated heterogeneous energy pack manager in an Electric Vehicle operated by a human driver. For this domain, upcoming load on the energy pack strongly affects the optimal use and charging strategy of the pack. Given incomplete information, there is a natural uncertainty in upcoming duty due to traffic, destination, signage, and other factors. We test against a dataset of real driving data gathered from volunteers, and compare the results other models and the optimal upper bound.


Multiple Outcome Supervised Latent Dirichlet Allocation for Expert Discovery in Online Forums

AAAI Conferences

This paper presents a supervised bayesian approach to model expertise in online forums with application to question routing. The proposed method extends the well-known sLDA model to the multi-task case, accounting for a supervised stage with multiple outputs per document corresponding to the users of the system. A study of the characteristics of real world data revealed a number of challenges in the practical application of this model, relevant to the research community.


Exploring Disease Interactions Using Markov Networks

AAAI Conferences

Network medicine is an emerging paradigm for studying the co-occurrence between diseases. While diseases are often interlinked through complex patterns, most of the existing work in this area has focused on studying pairwise relationships between diseases. In this paper, we use a state-of-the-art Markov network learning method to learn interactions between musculoskeletal disorders and cardiovascular diseases and compare this to pairwise approaches. Our experimental results confirm that the sophisticated structure learner produces more accurate models, which can help reveal interesting patterns in the co-occurrence of diseases.
