Structure Learning in Graphical Models from Indirect Observations
Zhang, Hang, Abdi, Afshin, Fekri, Faramarz
This paper considers learning of the graphical structure of a $p$-dimensional random vector $X \in R^p$ using both parametric and non-parametric methods. Unlike the previous works which observe $x$ directly, we consider the indirect observation scenario in which samples $y$ are collected via a sensing matrix $A \in R^{d\times p}$, and corrupted with some additive noise $w$, i.e, $Y = AX + W$. For the parametric method, we assume $X$ to be Gaussian, i.e., $x\in R^p\sim N(\mu, \Sigma)$ and $\Sigma \in R^{p\times p}$. For the first time, we show that the correct graphical structure can be correctly recovered under the indefinite sensing system ($d < p$) using insufficient samples ($n < p$). In particular, we show that for the exact recovery, we require dimension $d = \Omega(p^{0.8})$ and sample number $n = \Omega(p^{0.8}\log^3 p)$. For the nonparametric method, we assume a nonparanormal distribution for $X$ rather than Gaussian. Under mild conditions, we show that our graph-structure estimator can obtain the correct structure. We derive the minimum sample number $n$ and dimension $d$ as $n\gtrsim (deg)^4 \log^4 n$ and $d \gtrsim p + (deg\cdot\log(d-p))^{\beta/4}$, respectively, where deg is the maximum Markov blanket in the graphical model and $\beta > 0$ is some fixed positive constant. Additionally, we obtain a non-asymptotic uniform bound on the estimation error of the CDF of $X$ from indirect observations with inexact knowledge of the noise distribution. To the best of our knowledge, this bound is derived for the first time and may serve as an independent interest. Numerical experiments on both real-world and synthetic data are provided confirm the theoretical results.
Artificial intelligence understanding fishy behaviour
Artificial intelligence has for the first time predicted the reproductive behaviour of Yellowtail Kingfish by tracking their movements as part of new research revealed on #WorldOceanDay. The new study published in Movement Ecology used machine learning algorithms to identify and distinguish between behaviours including courtship, feeding, escape, chafing, and swimming to showcase how technology can offer greater understanding of marine life. The results revealed spawning behaviour of Yellowtail Kingfish within the Neptune Islands Group Marine Park and Thorny Passage Marine Park in South Australia. Researchers tagged captive Kingfish and filmed their behaviour in tanks to identify the acceleration signatures and applied artificial intelligence to identify behaviour in free-ranging fish. Flinders University PhD student, Thomas Clarke, in the College of Science & Engineering, says it's the first study to use machine learning to identify spawning behaviours in wild Kingfish and demonstrates how artificial intelligence can be used to better understand reproductive patterns.

A Probabilistic Trust and Reputation Model for Supply Chain Management
Haghpanah, Yasaman (University of Maryland, Baltimore County)
HAPTIC is individuals - agents or humans - within them to establish grounded in game theory and probabilistic modeling. It has successful relationships with their partners. In Supply been proved that HAPTIC agents learn other agents' behaviors Chain Management (SCM), establishing trust improves the reliably using direct observations. One shortcoming of chances of a successful supply chain relationship, and increases HAPTIC is that it does not support reported observations.

HAPTIC is grounded in game theory and probabilistic modeling. It has been proved that My thesis contributes to the field of multi-agent HAPTIC agents learn other agents' behaviors reliably using systems by proposing a novel trust-based decision direct observations. One shortcoming of HAPTIC is that it model for supply chain management.
