The exponential growth of electric vehicles (EVs) presents novel challenges in preserving battery health and in addressing the persistent problem of vehicle range anxiety. To address these concerns, wireless charging, particularly, Mobile Energy Disseminators (MEDs) have emerged as a promising solution. The MED is mounted behind a large vehicle and charges all participating EVs within a radius upstream of it. Unfortuantely, during such V2V charging, the MED and EVs inadvertently form platoons, thereby occupying multiple lanes and impairing overall corridor travel efficiency. In addition, constrained budgets for MED deployment necessitate the development of an effective dispatching strategy to determine optimal timing and locations for introducing the MEDs into traffic. This paper proposes a deep reinforcement learning (DRL) based methodology to develop a vehicle dispatching framework. In the first component of the framework, we develop a realistic reinforcement learning environment termed "ChargingEnv" which incorporates a reliable charging simulation system that accounts for common practical issues in wireless charging deployment, specifically, the charging panel misalignment. The second component, the Proximal-Policy Optimization (PPO) agent, is trained to control MED dispatching through continuous interactions with ChargingEnv. Numerical experiments were carried out to demonstrate the demonstrate the efficacy of the proposed MED deployment decision processor. The experiment results suggest that the proposed model can significantly enhance EV travel range while efficiently deploying a optimal number of MEDs. The proposed model is found to be not only practical in its applicability but also has promises of real-world effectiveness. The proposed model can help travelers to maximize EV range and help road agencies or private-sector vendors to manage the deployment of MEDs efficiently.

Offline reinforcement learning aims to utilize datasets of previously gathered environment-action interaction records to learn a policy without access to the real environment. Recent work has shown that offline reinforcement learning can be formulated as a sequence modeling problem and solved via supervised learning with approaches such as decision transformer. While these sequence-based methods achieve competitive results over return-to-go methods, especially on tasks that require longer episodes or with scarce rewards, importance sampling is not considered to correct the policy bias when dealing with off-policy data, mainly due to the absence of behavior policy and the use of deterministic evaluation policies. To this end, we propose DPE: an RL algorithm that blends offline sequence modeling and offline reinforcement learning with Double Policy Estimation (DPE) in a unified framework with statistically proven properties on variance reduction. We validate our method in multiple tasks of OpenAI Gym with D4RL benchmarks. Our method brings a performance improvements on selected methods which outperforms SOTA baselines in several tasks, demonstrating the advantages of enabling double policy estimation for sequence-modeled reinforcement learning.

Classification of movement trajectories has many applications in transportation. Supervised neural models represent the current state-of-the-art. Recent security applications require this task to be rapidly employed in environments that may differ from the data used to train such models for which there is little training data. We provide a neuro-symbolic rule-based framework to conduct error correction and detection of these models to support eventual deployment in security applications. We provide a suite of experiments on several recent and state-of-the-art models and show an accuracy improvement of 1.7% over the SOTA model in the case where all classes are present in training and when 40% of classes are omitted from training, we obtain a 5.2% improvement (zero-shot) and 23.9% (few-shot) improvement over the SOTA model without resorting to retraining of the base model.

Reduced order models (ROMs) are widely used in scientific computing to tackle high-dimensional systems. However, traditional ROM methods may only partially capture the intrinsic geometric characteristics of the data. These characteristics encompass the underlying structure, relationships, and essential features crucial for accurate modeling. To overcome this limitation, we propose a novel ROM framework that integrates optimal transport (OT) theory and neural network-based methods. Specifically, we investigate the Kernel Proper Orthogonal Decomposition (kPOD) method exploiting the Wasserstein distance as the custom kernel, and we efficiently train the resulting neural network (NN) employing the Sinkhorn algorithm. By leveraging an OT-based nonlinear reduction, the presented framework can capture the geometric structure of the data, which is crucial for accurate learning of the reduced solution manifold. When compared with traditional metrics such as mean squared error or cross-entropy, exploiting the Sinkhorn divergence as the loss function enhances stability during training, robustness against overfitting and noise, and accelerates convergence. To showcase the approach's effectiveness, we conduct experiments on a set of challenging test cases exhibiting a slow decay of the Kolmogorov n-width. The results show that our framework outperforms traditional ROM methods in terms of accuracy and computational efficiency.

We consider hypergraph network design problems where the goal is to construct a hypergraph satisfying certain properties. In graph network design problems, the number of edges in an arbitrary solution is at most the square of the number of vertices. In contrast, in hypergraph network design problems, the number of hyperedges in an arbitrary solution could be exponential in the number of vertices and hence, additional care is necessary to design polynomial-time algorithms. The central theme of this work is to show that certain hypergraph network design problems admit solutions with polynomial number of hyperedges and moreover, can be solved in strongly polynomial time. Our work improves on the previous fastest pseudo-polynomial run-time for these problems. In addition, we develop algorithms that return (near-)uniform hypergraphs as solutions. The hypergraph network design problems that we focus upon are splitting-off operation in hypergraphs, connectivity augmentation using hyperedges, and covering skew-supermodular functions using hyperedges. Our definition of the splitting-off operation in hypergraphs and our proof showing the existence of the operation using a strongly polynomial-time algorithm to compute it are likely to be of independent graph-theoretical interest.

Recently, there has been a growing interest in learning and explaining causal effects within Neural Network (NN) models. By virtue of NN architectures, previous approaches consider only direct and total causal effects assuming independence among input variables. We view an NN as a structural causal model (SCM) and extend our focus to include indirect causal effects by introducing feedforward connections among input neurons. We propose an ante-hoc method that captures and maintains direct, indirect, and total causal effects during NN model training. We also propose an algorithm for quantifying learned causal effects in an NN model and efficient approximation strategies for quantifying causal effects in high-dimensional data. Extensive experiments conducted on synthetic and real-world datasets demonstrate that the causal effects learned by our ante-hoc method better approximate the ground truth effects compared to existing methods.

The scarcity of labelled data makes training Deep Neural Network (DNN) models in bioacoustic applications challenging. In typical bioacoustics applications, manually labelling the required amount of data can be prohibitively expensive. To effectively identify both new and current classes, DNN models must continue to learn new features from a modest amount of fresh data. Active Learning (AL) is an approach that can help with this learning while requiring little labelling effort. Nevertheless, the use of fixed feature extraction approaches limits feature quality, resulting in underutilization of the benefits of AL. We describe an AL framework that addresses this issue by incorporating feature extraction into the AL loop and refining the feature extractor after each round of manual annotation. In addition, we use raw audio processing rather than spectrograms, which is a novel approach. Experiments reveal that the proposed AL framework requires 14.3%, 66.7%, and 47.4% less labelling effort on benchmark audio datasets ESC-50, UrbanSound8k, and InsectWingBeat, respectively, for a large DNN model and similar savings on a microcontroller-based counterpart. Furthermore, we showcase the practical relevance of our study by incorporating data from conservation biology projects.

We describe ACE0, a lightweight platform for evaluating the suitability and viability of AI methods for behaviour discovery in multiagent simulations. Specifically, ACE0 was designed to explore AI methods for multi-agent simulations used in operations research studies related to new technologies such as autonomous aircraft. Simulation environments used in production are often high-fidelity, complex, require significant domain knowledge and as a result have high R&D costs. Minimal and lightweight simulation environments can help researchers and engineers evaluate the viability of new AI technologies for behaviour discovery in a more agile and potentially cost effective manner. In this paper we describe the motivation for the development of ACE0.We provide a technical overview of the system architecture, describe a case study of behaviour discovery in the aerospace domain, and provide a qualitative evaluation of the system. The evaluation includes a brief description of collaborative research projects with academic partners, exploring different AI behaviour discovery methods.

We present a large-scale study on unsupervised spatiotemporal representation learning from videos. With a unified perspective on four recent image-based frameworks, we study a simple objective that can easily generalize all these methods to space-time. Our objective encourages temporally-persistent features in the same video, and in spite of its simplicity, it works surprisingly well across: (i) different unsupervised frameworks, (ii) pre-training datasets, (iii) downstream datasets, and (iv) backbone architectures. We draw a series of intriguing observations from this study, e.g., we discover that encouraging long-spanned persistency can be effective even if the timespan is 60 seconds. In addition to state-of-the-art results in multiple benchmarks, we report a few promising cases in which unsupervised pre-training can outperform its supervised counterpart.

In this paper, we propose the joint learning attention and recurrent neural network (RNN) models for multi-label classification. While approaches based on the use of either model exist (e.g., for the task of image captioning), training such existing network architectures typically require pre-defined label sequences. For multi-label classification, it would be desirable to have a robust inference process, so that the prediction error would not propagate and thus affect the performance. Our proposed model uniquely integrates attention and Long Short Term Memory (LSTM) models, which not only addresses the above problem but also allows one to identify visual objects of interests with varying sizes without the prior knowledge of particular label ordering. More importantly, label co-occurrence information can be jointly exploited by our LSTM model. Finally, by advancing the technique of beam search, prediction of multiple labels can be efficiently achieved by our proposed network model.
