Comparative Analysis: Violence Recognition from Videos using Transfer Learning

Action recognition has become a hot topic in computer vision. However, the main applications of computer vision in video processing have focused on detection of relatively simple actions while complex events such as violence detection have been comparatively less investigated. This study focuses on the benchmarking of various deep learning techniques on a complex dataset. Next, a larger dataset is utilized to test the uplift from increasing volume of data. The dataset size increase from 500 to 1,600 videos resulted in a notable average accuracy improvement of 6% across four models.6 pages, 5 figures, The paper will be published in IEEE AICT 2024 Conferenc

Odhad emocí a duševní koncentrace pomocí technik Deep Learningu

The purpose of this work is to evaluate the brain waves of humans with deep learn- ing methods and evolutionary computation techniques, and to verify the performance of applied techniques. In this thesis, we apply well–known metaheuristics and Artificial Neural Networks for classifying human mental activities using electroencephalographic signals. We developed a Brain–Computer Interface system that is able to process elec- troencephalographic signals and classify mental concentration versus relaxation. The system is able to automatically extract and learn representation of the given data. Based on scientific protocols we designed the Brain–Computer Interface experiments and we created an original and relevant data for the industrial and academic community. Our experimental data is available to the scientific community. In the experiments we used an electroencephalographic based device for collecting brain information form the subjects during specific activities. The collected data represents brain waves of subjects who was stimulated by writing tasks. Furthermore, we selected the best combination of the input features (brain waves information) using the following two metaheuristic techniques: Simulated Annealing and Geometric Particle Swarm Optimization. We applied a specific type of Artificial Neural Network, named Echo State Network, for solving the mapping between brain information and subject activities. The results indicate that it is possible to estimate the human con- centration using few electroencephalographic signals. In addition, the proposed system is developed with a fast and robust learning technique that can be easily adapted accord- ing to each subject. Moreover, this approach does not require powerful computational resources. As a consequence, the proposed system can be used in environments which are computationally limited and/or where the computational time is an important issue.Cílem práce je ohodnocení lidských mozkových vln s využitím metod hlubokého učení (deep learning) a evolučních výpočetních technik a pro ověření výkonu aplikovaných technik. V diplomové práci jsou využity dobře známé metaheuristiky a umělé neuronové sítě pro klasifikaci lidských mentálních aktivit za použití elektroencefalografických signálů. Bylo vyvinuto rozhraní mozek-počítač, které je schopno zpracovat elektroencefalografické signály a klasifikovat mentální soustředění v porovnání s relaxací. Systém je schopen automaticky extrahovat a naučit se reprezentaci daných dat. Na základě vědeckých protokolů byl navržen experiment pro rozhraní mozek-počítač a byla vytvořena původní a relevantní data pro průmyslovou a akademickou komunitu. Vygenerovaná pokusná data jsou přístupné pro vědeckou komunitu. V rámci experimentů bylo využito zařízení založené na encefalografii pro sběr mozkových signálů subjektu během specifických aktivit. Nasbíraná data reprezentují mozkové vlny subjektu, který byl stimulován psaním úloh. Dále byla vybrána nejlepší kombinace vstupních vlastností (informace o mozkové vlně) s využitím následujících dvou metaheuristických metod: simulovaného žíhání a geometrické optimalizace hejnem částic. Umělá neuronová síť, která se nazývá Echo State síť, byla aplikována pro řešení mapování mezi informacemi z mozku a aktivitami subjektu. Výsledky ukazují, že je možné odhadnout lidskou aktivitu pomocí několika encefalografických signálů. Kromě toho, navrhovaný systém je vyvinut s využitím rychlých a robustních učících technik, které mohou být jednoduše přizpůsobeny podle jednotlivých subjektů. Tento přístup navíc nevyžaduje výkonné výpočetní prostředky. V důsledku toho může být systém využit v prostředí, které jsou výpočetně omezeny a/nebo v případech, kdy výpočetní čas je důležitým hlediskem.460 - Katedra informatikyvýborn

ANALYSIS OF TAXI SERVICE ORGANIZING AND REGULATION FOR BAKU CITY

With the expansion of the use of digital technologies, the nature of almost all service industries has changed. Taxi services are no exception. The use of mobile applications, and the creation of call centres, have simplified the access of passengers to taxis and created a new situation. Despite this, with the emergence of a new situation, new problems appeared. This article aims to study taxi services organization and regulation. Thus, surveys were conducted to study attitudes towards offered services for passengers and drivers, the main participants in the taxi market. The questionnaires are aimed at studying the satisfaction of passengers and the attitude of drivers to working conditions. The total weight of using a taxi in comparison with other types of urban transport is determined. The frequency and main reasons for requests for taxi services were identified. This paper also studied the degree of use of mobile applications for calling a taxi and the distribution of orders between taxi companies. Surveys among drivers were mainly aimed at studying the mode of their work and their attitude to the conditions offered by taxi companies. To solve the identified problems, an appropriate regulation method through a single digital platform was proposed

Simulation testing of traffic flow delays in bus stop zone

Traffic flows are subject to certain delays due to the maneuvering of buses entering and leaving the stop. The study of how these delays change depending on the frequency of arrival of buses to a stop and, the change of lanes on the road, the intensity of the traffic flow on the road is important in organizing traffic and planning the movement of buses along the route. The article uses simulation models built in the PTV VISSIM program to estimate the delay time of the traffic flow on 2, 3, and 4 lane roads for 4 different values of the intensity of the traffic flow and 5 different values of the bus arrival frequency at the stop. The results obtained are analyzed. The changing nature of traffic flow delays in various scenarios has been studied

Remarks. It is quite difficult to provide a clear­cut diagnosis of another of the numerous species which can be assigned to such a large and taxonomically confused genus as Dactylochelifer. Instead, its position is rather intermediate between Dactylochelifer and Hysterochelifer, the latter likewise a large and difficult genus. The absence of an atrium in coxa IV and the trichobothiotaxy are the same as in Hysterochelifer. Some further characters, however, do not fit. Thus, the simple subterminal seta, the cheliceral setae B and SB devoid of denticulation terminally, the single cribriform plate and the lateral rods not fused anteriorly are all rather characteristic of Dactylochelifer. On balance,? D. martensi seems better to be assigned, at least for the time being, to Dactylochelifer. Very probably, in future the artificial “Hysterochelifer­ Dactylochelifer ” complex is to be split into several natural groups. In this case,? D. martensi may well prove to represent a new, yet undescribed genus.Published as part of Dashdamirov, Selvin, 2006, A new species of the false­scorpion family Cheliferidae from Thailand, with remarks on Ancistrochelifer and Metachelifer (Arachnida: Pseudoscorpiones), pp. 347-362 in Zootaxa 1325 on pages 353-357, DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.17403

Üniversite öğrencilerinin aşka ilişkin tutum biçimleri ile depresyon düzeyleri arasındaki ilişkinin incelenmesi

İnsanoğlu aşk olgusunu dünya var olduğundan beri yüreğinde hissetmektedir. Aşk hem bireyin ruh sağlığını zaman zaman olumsuz etkilemekte hem de zaman zaman yaşamdan aldığı doyumu arttırmaktadır. Birey aşkın tesiri altındayken olumlu ve olumsuz güçlü duyguları bir arada yaşamakta ve bu güçlü duygular bazen onun depresif durumunu arttırabilmektedir. Bu çalışmada, üniversite öğrencilerinin aşk tutumları ile depresyon düzeyleri arasındaki ilişkiyi incelemek amaç edinilmiştir. Bu ana amaç çerçevesinde, üniversite öğrencilerinin aşk tutumlarının ve depresyon düzeylerinin çeşitli bağımsız değişkenlerine (cinsiyet,yaş,üniversite türü, bölüm, yaş, yaşamın çoğunun geçirildiği yer, ailenin gelir düzeyi, ailenin algılanan çocuk yetiştirme türü, daha önce duygusal ilişki yaşama deneyimi, yaşanan duygusal ilişkinin süresi) göre farklılaşıp farklılaşmadığına bakılmıştır. Araştırmanın örneklemini 2010-2011 eğitim-öğretim yılında İstanbul’da farklı üniversitelerde öğrenim gören 125’i erkek, 275’i kadın olmak üzere toplam 400 lisans ve yüksek lisans öğrencisi oluşmaktadır. Araştırma verilerini toplamak amacıyla; Lee (1973)’nin aşk sınıflandırması temel alınarak Hendrick, Hendrick ve Dicke (1998) tarafından geliştirilen Aşka İlişkin Tutumlar Ölçeği (Kısa Form) ve Beck ve arkadaşları tarafından (1961) geliştirilen, Beck Depresyon Envanteri kullanılmıştır. Araştırma sonucunda elde edilen bulgular incelendiğinde; Öğrencilerin depresyon puanları ile tutkulu aşk tutumu puanları arasında istatistiksel olarak ters yönde, oyun gibi aşk tutumu ve sahiplenici aşk arasında ise istatistiksel olarak doğrusal yönde anlamlı ilişkiler elde edilmiştir. Diğer aşk tutumları ile depresyon düzeyleri arasında ise anlamlı ilişkilere ulaşılamamıştır. Bağımsız değişkenler çerçevesinde yapılan analizlerde ise; cinsiyet, yaş, yaşamın çoğunun geçirildiği yer, ailenin çocuk yetiştirme tutumu değişkenlerine göre hem depresyon puanlarının hem de aşk tutumlarının değişmediği görülmüştür. Ancak; öğrencilerin mantıklı aşk tutumu puanlarının özel üniversitelerde öğrenim görenlerin lehine, arkadaşça aşk tutumu puanlarının sayısal bölümlerde öğrenim gören öğrencilerin lehine, tutkulu aşk tutumunun 3. Sınıfta öğrenim gören öğrencilerin lehine, oyun gibi aşk tutumu puanlarının yüksek gelir düzeyinde olanların lehine anlamlı sonuçlar gösterdiği belirlenmiştir. Ayrıca duygusal ilişkinin süresine göre de öğrencilerin aşk tutumlarında farklılaşmalar olduğu görülmüştür. Elde edilen bulgular ilgili literatür ve konuyla ilgili yapılan diğer araştırmalar bağlamında tartışılmış ve yine ulaşılan bulgular çerçevesinde çeşitli öneriler getirilmiştir. Anahtar Sözcükler: Aşk, Aşk Tutumları, Depresyon, Genç yetişkinlik ABSTRACT Humans have been sensing the feeling of love from time immemorial. Love may negatively affect one’s mental health time to time on the one hand and may increase the pleasure one gets from life time to time on the other hand. When under the influence of love, one may experience both positive and negative strong feelings at the same time, and such strong feelings might increase one’s state of depression. This study aims to review the relation between college students’ love attitudes and depression levels. For this purpose it was reviewed whether college students’ love attitudes and depression levels change due to various independent variables (gender, age, type of university, studied program, place where most of life spent, income level of family, observed child bringing principles of family, previous experience of romantic relationship, duration of romantic relationship). Subjects selected were 125 male and 275 female bachelor’s or master’s degree students i.e. total 400 students from various universities in Istanbul in academic year 2010-2011. Data for this study were collected employing both the Love Attitudes Scale (short form) developed by Hendrick, Hendrick and Dicke (1998) based on the love styles classification by Lee (1973), and the Beck Depression Inventory developed by Beck et al (1961). Review of the findings obtained from this study reveals as follows: There are meaningful statistically inverse correlations between the students’ depression points and passionate love attitudes, and meaningful statistically linear correlations between their playful love attitudes and possessive love. No meaningful correlations were found between their other love attitudes and depression levels. The analyses conducted on the independent variables show that neither the depression points nor the love attitudes of the subjects have changed with reference to gender, age, place where most of life spent, and child bringing principles of family. However, it was found that the subjects’ reasonable love attitude points show meaningful results in favor of those studying at private universities, their friendly love attitude points show meaningful results in favor of those studying science degrees, their passionate love attitude points show meaningful results in favor of third year (junior) students, and their playful love attitude points show meaningful results in favor of those from high income level families. Furthermore, it was observed that the subjects’ love attitudes change depending on the duration of their romantic relationships. The findings obtained were discussed with reference to relevant literature and the other studies conducted on this subject, and various suggestions were made under the frame of the findings.
