Adaptive Shapley: Using Explainable AI with Large Datasets to Quantify the Impact of Arbitrary Error Sources. Magnussen, Birk Martin; Jessulat, Maik; Stern, Claudius; Sick, Bernhard. In International Conference on Big Data Analytics (ICBDA). IEEE, 2024.

Almost all sensors suffer from some level of uncertainty introduced from production inaccuracies. When the sensor data is processed by machine learning, quantifying the impact of such production inaccuracies on the output of the machine learning model becomes difficult. Certain neural network architectures, such as continuous feature networks, allow individual features and data to be omitted while still being able to correctly predict the result without the need for retraining. Such features can, for example, be individual channels of a sensor. This article proposes a method to use the capability to omit arbitrary features or sensor channels to calculate Shapley values for each sensor channel. These Shapley values represent the contribution of each individual channel to the measurement. They are defined using an arbitrary function called the ``value function''. If the value function is defined as the error of the current measurement, the Shapley values will represent the contribution of each sensor channel to the error of the measurement result. By calculating Shapley values like this for a large unlabelled dataset of measurements, it is possible to understand how much measurement error was introduced by which channel of which sensor in each measurement. Averaging the Shapley values for each sensor in the dataset will then result in a metric for each channel of that sensor, which represents a contribution to measurement errors. By comparing these values to any arbitrary quality metrics for the sensor channels obtained in a calibration process or similar step, it is possible to correlate and quantify which value in the quality metric will cause how much of a measurement error, or whether the quality metric is even relevant for the measurement accuracy. This article will show the efficacy and use case of the method on an example of the production and quality control of optical sensors based on multiple spatially resolved reflection spectroscopy.

Crowdworking is a popular approach for annotating large amounts of data to train deep neural networks. However, parts of the annotations are often erroneous. In a case study, we demonstrate how an intelligent crowdworker selection via deep learning reduces the number of erroneous annotations and, thus, the annotation costs of obtaining reliable data for training deep neural networks.

In safety-critical applications such as automated driving, perception errors may create an imminent risk to vulnerable road users (VRU). To mitigate the occurrence of unexpected and potentially dangerous situations, so-called corner cases, perception models are trained on a huge amount of data. However, the models are typically evaluated using task-agnostic metrics, which do not reflect the severity of safety-critical misdetections. Consequently, misdetections with particular relevance for the safe driving task should entail a more severe penalty during evaluation to pinpoint corner cases in large-scale datasets. In this work, we propose a novel metric IoUw that exploits relevance on the pixel level of the semantic segmentation output to extend the notion of the intersection over union (IoU) by emphasizing small areas of an image affected by corner cases. We (i) employ IoUw to measure the effect of pre-defined relevance criteria on the segmentation evaluation, and (ii) use the relevance-adapted IoUw to refine the identification of corner cases. In our experiments, we investigate vision-based relevance criteria and physical attributes as per-pixel criticality to factor in the imminent risk, showing that IoUw precisely accentuates the relevance of corner cases.

Utilizing Continuous Kernels for Processing Irregularly and Inconsistently Sampled Data With Position-Dependent Features. Magnussen, Birk Martin; Stern, Claudius; Sick, Bernhard. In International Conference on Autonomic and Autonomous Systems (ICAS), bll 49–53. ThinkMind, 2023.

Continuous Kernels have been a recent development in convolutional neural networks. Such kernels are used to process data sampled at different resolutions as well as irregularly and inconsistently sampled data. Convolutional neural networks have the property of translational invariance (e.g., features are detected regardless of their position in the measurement domain), which is unsuitable for certain types of data, where the position of detected features is relevant. However, the capabilities of continuous kernels to process irregularly sampled data are still desired. This article introduces a novel method utilizing continuous kernels for detecting global features at absolute positions in the data domain. Through a use case in processing multiple spatially resolved reflection spectroscopy data, which is sampled irregularly and inconsistently, we show that the proposed method is capable of processing such data natively without additional preprocessing as is needed using comparable methods. In addition, we show that the proposed method is able to achieve a higher prediction accuracy than a comparable network on a dataset with position-dependent features. Furthermore, a higher robustness to missing data compared to a benchmark network using data interpolation is observed, which allows the network to adapt to sensors with individual failed components without the need for retraining.

Towards Few-Shot Time Series Anomaly Detection with Temporal Attention and Dynamic Thresholding. Nivarthi, Chandana Priya; Sick, Bernhard. In International Conference on Machine Learning and Applications (ICMLA). IEEE, 2023.

Anomaly detection plays a pivotal role in diverse realworld applications such as cybersecurity, fault detection, network monitoring, predictive maintenance, and highly automated driving. However, obtaining labeled anomalous data can be a formidable challenge, especially when anomalies exhibit temporal evolution. This paper introduces LATAM (Long short-term memory Autoencoder with Temporal Attention Mechanism) for few-shot anomaly detection, with the aim of enhancing detection performance in scenarios with limited labeled anomaly data. LATAM effectively captures temporal dependencies and emphasizes significant patterns in multivariate time series data. In our investigation, we comprehensively evaluate LATAM against other anomaly detection models, particularly assessing its capability in few-shot learning scenarios where we have minimal examples from the normal class and none from the anomalous class in the training data. Our experimental results, derived from real-world photovoltaic inverter data, highlight LATAM’s superiority, showcasing a substantial 27% mean F1 score improvement, even when trained on a mere two-week dataset. Furthermore, LATAM demonstrates remarkable results on the open-source SWaT dataset, achieving a 12% boost in accuracy with only two days of training data. Moreover, we introduce a simple yet effective dynamic thresholding mechanism, further enhancing the anomaly detection capabilities of LATAM. This underscores LATAM’s efficacy in addressing the challenges posed by limited labeled anomalies in practical scenarios and it proves valuable for downstream tasks involving temporal representation and time series prediction, extending its utility beyond anomaly detection applications.

Time-aware Robustness of Temporal Graph Neural Networks for Link Prediction. Sälzer, Marco; Beddar-Wiesing, Silvia. In International Symposium on Temporal Representation and Reasoning (TIME). 2023.

Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) provide a framework for computing functions over graphs based on learnable parameters, which gained much attention in recent years. The most popular GNN models, so-called convolutional GNN or message-passing GNN apply a neighborhood aggregation procedure to each node in a graph to compute its output. Usually, such GNNs are used for classification or prediction tasks over static graphs. However, this limits their applicability in contexts like social networks or knowledge graphs, where underlying graphs change stepwise or time-continuously. Temporal Graph Neural Networks (TGNN) try to close this gap. The general idea of TGNN is to generalize the neighborhood aggregation procedure mentioned above to temporal graphs, usually represented as a tuple of a base graph with a series of time-stamped observed changes. In most applications involving Neural Network based models, giving reliable safety certificates are highly desirable but also a significant challenge, especially because of the blackbox nature of neural models. In this extended abstract, we address the topic of verifying TGNN, which is an unexplored area of research. We present a first notion of a time-aware robustness property for TGNN used for link prediction tasks, motivated by recent work on similar time-aware attacks. Furthermore, we discuss our ongoing work regarding promising verification approaches for the presented or similar safety properties and possible next steps in this research direction.

Inner-city intersections are among the most critical traffic areas for injury and fatal accidents. Automated vehicles struggle with the complex and hectic everyday life within those areas. Sensor-equipped smart infrastructures, which can cooperate with vehicles, can benefit automated traffic by extending the perception capabilities of drivers and vehicle perception systems. Additionally, they offer the opportunity to gather reproducible and precise data of a holistic scene understanding, including context information as a basis for training algorithms for various applications in automated traffic. Therefore, we introduce the Infrastructural Multi-Person Trajectory and Context Dataset (IMPTC). We use an intelligent public inner-city intersection in Germany with visual sensor technology. A multi-view camera and LiDAR system perceives traffic situations and road users’ behavior. Additional sensors monitor contextual information like weather, lighting, and traffic light signal status. The data acquisition system focuses on Vulnerable Road Users (VRUs) and multiagent interaction. The resulting dataset consists of eight hours of measurement data. It contains over 2,500 VRU trajectories, including pedestrians, cyclists, e-scooter riders, strollers, and wheelchair users, and over 20,000 vehicle trajectories at different day times, weather conditions, and seasons. In addition, to enable the entire stack of research capabilities, the dataset includes all data, starting from the sensor-, calibration- and detection data until trajectory and context data. The dataset is continuously expanded and is available online for non-commercial research at https://github.com/kav-institute/imptc-dataset

Automated vehicles struggle with the complex and hectic everyday life within those areas. Sensor-equipped smart infrastructures, which can cooperate with vehicles, can benefit automated traffic by extending the perception capabilities of drivers and vehicle perception systems. Additionally, they offer the opportunity to gather reproducible and precise data of a holistic scene understanding, including context information as a basis for training algorithms for various applications in automated traffic. Therefore, we introduce the Infrastructural Multi-Person Trajectory and Context Dataset (IMPTC). We use an intelligent public inner-city intersection in Germany with visual sensor technology. A multi-view camera and LiDAR system perceives traffic situations and road users’ behavior. Additional sensors monitor contextual information like weather, lighting, and traffic light signal status. The data acquisition system focuses on Vulnerable Road Users (VRUs) and multiagent interaction. The resulting dataset consists of eight hours of measurement data. It contains over 2,500 VRU trajectories, including pedestrians, cyclists, e-scooter riders, strollers, and wheelchair users, and over 20,000 vehicle trajectories at different day times, weather conditions, and seasons. In addition, to enable the entire stack of research capabilities, the dataset includes all data, starting from the sensor-, calibration- and detection data until trajectory and context data.

Targeted Adversarial Attacks on Wind Power Forecasts. Heinrich, René; Scholz, Christoph; Vogt, Stephan; Lehna, Malte. In Machine Learning. Springer, 2023.

In recent years, researchers proposed a variety of deep learning models for wind power forecasting. These models predict the wind power generation of wind farms or entire regions more accurately than traditional machine learning algorithms or physical models. However, latest research has shown that deep learning models can often be manipulated by adversarial attacks. Since wind power forecasts are essential for the stability of modern power systems, it is important to protect them from this threat. In this work, we investigate the vulnerability of two different forecasting models to targeted, semi-targeted, and untargeted adversarial attacks. We consider a Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) network for predicting the power generation of individual wind farms and a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) for forecasting the wind power generation throughout Germany. Moreover, we propose the Total Adversarial Robustness Score (TARS), an evaluation metric for quantifying the robustness of regression models to targeted and semi-targeted adversarial attacks. It assesses the impact of attacks on the model's performance, as well as the extent to which the attacker's goal was achieved, by assigning a score between 0 (very vulnerable) and 1 (very robust). In our experiments, the LSTM forecasting model was fairly robust and achieved a TARS value of over 0.78 for all adversarial attacks investigated. The CNN forecasting model only achieved TARS values below 0.10 when trained ordinarily, and was thus very vulnerable. Yet, its robustness could be significantly improved by adversarial training, which always resulted in a TARS above 0.46.

Sensor Equivariance by LiDAR Projection Images. Reichert, Hannes; Hetzel, Manuel; Schreck, Steven; Doll, Konrad; Sick, Bernhard. In IEEE Intelligent Vehicles Symposium (IV), bll 1–6. IEEE, 2023.

In this work, we propose an extension of conventional image data by an additional channel in which the associated projection properties are encoded. This addresses the issue of sensor-dependent object representation in projection-based sensors, such as LiDAR, which can lead to distorted physical and geometric properties due to variations in sensor resolution and field of view. To that end, we propose an architecture for processing this data in an instance segmentation framework. We focus specifically on LiDAR as a key sensor modality for machine vision tasks and highly automated driving (HAD). Through an experimental setup in a controlled synthetic environment, we identify a bias on sensor resolution and field of view and demonstrate that our proposed method can reduce said bias for the task of LiDAR instance segmentation. Furthermore, we define our method such that it can be applied to other projection-based sensors, such as cameras. To promote transparency, we make our code and dataset publicly available. This method shows the potential to improve performance and robustness in various machine vision tasks that utilize projection-based sensors.

The examination of uncertainty in the predictions of machine learning (ML) models is receiving increasing attention. One uncertainty modeling technique used for this purpose is Monte-Carlo (MC)-Dropout, where repeated predictions are generated for a single input. Therefore, clustering is required to describe the resulting uncertainty, but only through efficient clustering is it possible to describe the uncertainty from the model attached to each object. This article uses Bayesian Gaussian Mixture (BGM) to solve this problem. In addition, we investigate different values for the dropout rate and other techniques, such as focal loss and calibration, which we integrate into the Mask-RCNN model to obtain the most accurate uncertainty approximation of each instance and showcase it graphically.

Despite considerable research on pool-based deep active learning (DAL), deploying DAL into real applications still has several challenges. A frequently neglected aspect is the choice of training hyperparameters (HPs), such as the learning rate. Since these HPs determine how the deep neural network learns in each cycle, they must be chosen carefully. In this article, we analyze the role of HPs in DAL. We find that optimizing HPs reduces the performance gap between DAL strategies. Conversely, we highlight challenges in finding optimal HPs when using datasets selected via DAL strategies.

X‑ray diffraction crystallography allows non‑destructive examination of crystal structures. Furthermore, it has low requirements regarding surface preparation, especially compared to electron backscatter diffraction. However, up to now, X‑ray diffraction has been highly time‑ consuming in standard laboratory conditions since intensities on multiple lattice planes have to be recorded by rotating and tilting. Furthermore, examining oligocrystalline materials is challenging due to the limited number of diffraction spots. Moreover, commonly used evaluation methods for crystallographic orientation analysis need multiple lattice planes for a reliable pole figure reconstruction. In this article, we propose a deep‑learning‑based method for oligocrystalline specimens, i.e., specimens with up to three grains of arbitrary crystal orientations. Our approach allows faster experimentation due to accurate reconstructions of pole figure regions, which we did not probe experimentally. In contrast to other methods, the pole figure is reconstructed based on only a single incomplete pole figure. To speed up the development of our proposed method and for usage in other machine learning algorithms, we introduce a GPU‑based simulation for data generation. Furthermore, we present a pole widths standardization technique using a custom deep learning architecture that makes algorithms more robust against influences from the experiment setup and material.

Power flow forecasts at transmission grid nodes using Graph Neural Networks. Beinert, Dominik; Holzhüter, Clara; Thomas, Josephine; Vogt, Stephan. In Energy and AI, 14(1), bl 100262. Elsevier, 2023.

The increasing share of renewable energy in the electricity grid and progressing changes in power consumption have led to fluctuating, and weather-dependent power flows. To ensure grid stability, grid operators rely on power forecasts which are crucial for grid calculations and planning. In this paper, a Multi-Task Learning approach is combined with a Graph Neural Network (GNN) to predict vertical power flows at transformers connecting high and extra-high voltage levels. The proposed method accounts for local differences in power flow characteristics by using an Embedding Multi-Task Learning approach. The use of a Bayesian embedding to capture the latent node characteristics allows to share the weights across all transformers in the subsequent node-invariant GNN while still allowing the individual behavioral patterns of the transformers to be distinguished. At the same time, dependencies between transformers are considered by the GNN architecture which can learn relationships between different transformers and thus take into account that power flows in an electricity network are not independent from each other. The effectiveness of the proposed method is demonstrated through evaluation on two real-world data sets provided by two of four German Transmission System Operators, comprising large portions of the operated German transmission grid. The results show that the proposed Multi-Task Graph Neural Network is a suitable representation learner for electricity networks with a clear advantage provided by the preceding embedding layer. It is able to capture interconnections between correlated transformers and indeed improves the performance in power flow prediction compared to standard Neural Networks. A sign test shows that the proposed model reduces the test RMSE on both data sets compared to the benchmark models significantly.

Fracture surface analysis is of utmost importance with respect to structural integrity of metallic materials. This especially holds true for additively manufactured materials. Despite an increasing trend of automatization of testing methods, the analysis and classification of fatigue fracture surface images is commonly done manually by experts. Although this leads to correct results in most cases, it has several disadvantages, e.g., the need of a huge knowledge base to interpret images correctly. In present work, an unsupervised tool for analysis of overview images of fatigue fracture surface images is developed to support nonexperienced users to identify the origin of the fracture. The tool is developed using fracture surface images of additively manufactured Ti6Al4V specimens fatigued in the high-cycle-fatigue regime and is based on the identification of river marks. Several recording parameters seem to have no significant influence on the results as long as preprocessing settings are adapted. Moreover, it is possible to analyze images of other materials with the tool as long as the fracture surfaces contain river marks. However, special features like multiple origins or origins located in direct vicinity to the surface, e.g., caused by increased plastic strains, require a further tool development or alternative approaches.

Typically, renewable-power-generation forecasting using machine learning involves creating separate models for each photovoltaic or wind park, known as single-task learning models. However, transfer learning has gained popularity in recent years, as it allows for the transfer of knowledge from source parks to target parks. Nevertheless, determining the most similar source park(s) for transfer learning can be challenging, particularly when the target park has limited or no historical data samples. To address this issue, we propose a multi-task learning architecture that employs a Unified Autoencoder (UAE) to initially learn a common representation of input weather features among tasks and then utilizes a Task-Embedding layer in a Neural Network (TENN) to learn task-specific information. This proposed UAE-TENN architecture can be easily extended to new parks with or without historical data. We evaluate the performance of our proposed architecture and compare it to single-task learning models on six photovoltaic and wind farm datasets consisting of a total of 529 parks. Our results show that the UAE-TENN architecture significantly improves power-forecasting performance by 10 to 19% for photovoltaic parks and 5 to 15% for wind parks compared to baseline models. We also demonstrate that UAE-TENN improves forecast accuracy for a new park by 19% for photovoltaic parks, even in a zero-shot learning scenario where there is no historical data. Additionally, we propose variants of the Unified Autoencoder with convolutional and LSTM layers, compare their performance, and provide a comparison among architectures with different numbers of task-embedding dimensions. Finally, we demonstrate the utility of trained task embeddings for interpretation and visualization purposes.

Solving complex classification tasks using deep neural networks typically requires large amounts of annotated data. However, corresponding class labels are noisy when provided by error-prone annotators, e.g., crowdworkers. Training standard deep neural networks leads to subpar performances in such multi-annotator supervised learning settings. We address this issue by presenting a probabilistic training framework named multi-annotator deep learning (MaDL). A downstream ground truth and an annotator performance model are jointly trained in an end-to-end learning approach. The ground truth model learns to predict instances' true class labels, while the annotator performance model infers probabilistic estimates of annotators' performances. A modular network architecture enables us to make varying assumptions regarding annotators' performances, e.g., an optional class or instance dependency. Further, we learn annotator embeddings to estimate annotators' densities within a latent space as proxies of their potentially correlated annotations. Together with a weighted loss function, we improve the learning from correlated annotation patterns. In a comprehensive evaluation, we examine three research questions about multi-annotator supervised learning. Our findings show MaDL's state-of-the-art performance and robustness against many correlated, spamming annotators.

The operation of electricity grids has become increasingly complex due to the current upheaval and the increase in renewable energy production. As a consequence, active grid management is reaching its limits with conventional approaches. In the context of the Learning to Run a Power Network (L2RPN) challenge, it has been shown that Reinforcement Learning (RL) is an efficient and reliable approach with considerable potential for automatic grid operation. In this article, we analyse the submitted agent from Binbinchen and provide novel strategies to improve the agent, both for the RL and the rule-based approach. The main improvement is a N-1 strategy, where we consider topology actions that keep the grid stable, even if one line is disconnected. More, we also propose a topology reversion to the original grid, which proved to be beneficial. The improvements are tested against reference approaches on the challenge test sets and are able to increase the performance of the rule-based agent by 27%. In direct comparison between rule-based and RL agent we find similar performance. However, the RL agent has a clear computational advantage. We also analyse the behaviour in an exemplary case in more detail to provide additional insights. Here, we observe that through the N-1 strategy, the actions of both the rule-based and the RL agent become more diversified.

Leveraging Repeated Unlabelled Noisy Measurements to Augment Supervised Learning. Magnussen, Birk Martin; Stern, Claudius; Sick, Bernhard. In International Conference on Computational Intelligence and Intelligent Systems (CIIS). ACM, 2023.

Often, producing large labelled datasets for supervised machine learning is difficult and expensive. In cases where the expensive part is due to labelling and obtaining ground truth, it is often comparably easy to acquire large datasets containing unlabelled data points. For reproducible measurements, it is possible to record information on multiple data points being from the same reproducible measurement series, which should thus have an equal but unknown ground truth. In this article, we propose a method to incorporate a dataset of such unlabelled data points for which some data points are known to be equal in end-to-end training of otherwise labelled data. We show that, with the example of predicting the carotenoid concentration in human skin from optical multiple spatially resolved reflection spectroscopy data, the proposed method is capable of reducing the required number of labelled data points to achieve the same prediction accuracy for different model architectures. In addition, we show that the proposed method is capable of reducing the negative impact of noisy data when performing a repeated measurement of the same sample.

Graph Pooling Provably Improves Expressivity. Lachi, Veronica; Moallemy-Oureh, Alice; Roth, Andreas; Welke, Pascal. In Workshop on New Frontiers in Graph Learning, NeurIPS. 2023.

In the domain of graph neural networks (GNNs), pooling operators are fundamental to reduce the size of the graph by simplifying graph structures and vertex features. Recent advances have shown that well-designed pooling operators, coupled with message-passing layers, can endow hierarchical GNNs with an expressive power regarding the graph isomorphism test that is equal to the Weisfeiler-Leman test. However, the ability of hierarchical GNNs to increase expressive power by utilizing graph coarsening was not yet explored. This results in uncertainties about the benefits of pooling operators and a lack of sufficient properties to guide their design. In this work, we identify conditions for pooling operators to generate WL-distinguishable coarsened graphs from originally WL-indistinguishable but non-isomorphic graphs. Our conditions are versatile and can be tailored to specific tasks and data characteristics, offering a promising avenue for further research.

Graphs are ubiquitous in nature and can therefore serve as models for many practical but also theoretical problems. For this purpose, they can be defined as many different types which suitably reflect the individual contexts of the represented problem. To address cutting-edge problems based on graph data, the research field of Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) has emerged. Despite the field’s youth and the speed at which new models are developed, many recent surveys have been published to keep track of them. Nevertheless, it has not yet been gathered which GNN can process what kind of graph types. In this survey, we give a detailed overview of already existing GNNs and, unlike previous surveys, categorize them according to their ability to handle different graph types and properties. We consider GNNs operating on static and dynamic graphs of different structural constitutions, with or without node or edge attributes. Moreover, we distinguish between GNN models for discrete-time or continuous-time dynamic graphs and group the models according to their architecture. We find that there are still graph types that are not or only rarely covered by existing GNN models. We point out where models are missing and give potential reasons for their absence.

Active learning aims to reduce the amount of labeled data while maximizing machine learning models’ performances. Currently, there is sparse research on the potential of an optimal active learning strategy. Therefore, we propose a non-myopic oracle policy that accesses the true labels of the data pool to approximate an optimal active learning strategy. We evaluate how the hyperparameters of this oracle policy influence its performance and empirically demonstrate that it is an upper baseline for common active learning strategies while being faster than a state-of-the-art oracle policy. For the sake of reproducibility, all the code related to our research is publicly available on our GitHub repository at https://github.com/ies-research/non-myopic-oracle-policy.

Domain Imaging in Periodic Submicron Wide Nanostructures by Digital Drift Correction in Kerr Microscopy. Akhundzada, Sapida; Dingel, Kristina; Bischof, David; Janzen, Christian; Sick, Bernhard; Ehresmann, Arno. In Advanced Photonics Research, 4(10), bl 2300170. Wiley, 2023.

Magneto-optical Kerr microscopy is a powerful method for imaging magnetic domains. Even though domain imaging below the diffractive resolution limit is possible, such investigations are getting increasingly complex with decreasing structure size due to the decreasing Kerr contrast. As magnetic domain images free of topographical artifacts are obtained by subtracting a reference image from the actual image, the corresponding challenges are additionally increased by unavoidable sample motion in the time interval between acquiring the two images. Software-based drift corrections typically rely on a unique structure in the image's region of interest (ROI), recognized automatically or selected manually by the user. By digital image shifting, the ROI positions in the actual and reference images are aligned, and the sample motion is compensated. For magnetic domain imaging in periodically arranged micro- or nano-objects, unique topographical features are not given, making the drift correction by ROIs difficult, often even impossible. Herein, a novel software-based approach is presented for drift corrections to image domains with features close/below the optical resolution limit and for investigating periodically arranged micro- or nano-objects without utilizing ROIs. High-contrast images are obtained, enabling the characterization of periodically arranged 1D, 2D, and 3D magnetic objects with lateral dimensions below 100 nm.

This dataset contains 10,000 fluid flow and heat transfer simulations in U-bend shapes. Each of them is described by 28 design parameters, which are processed with the help of Computational Fluid Dynamics methods. The dataset provides a comprehensive benchmark for investigating various problems and methods from the field of design optimization. For these investigations supervised, semi-supervised and unsupervised deep learning approaches can be employed. One unique feature of this dataset is that each shape can be represented by three distinct data types including design parameter and objective combinations, five different resolutions of 2D images from the geometry and the solution variables of the numerical simulation, as well as a representation using the cell values of the numerical mesh. This third representation enables considering the specific data structure of numerical simulations for deep learning approaches. The source code and the container used to generate the data are published as part of this work.

In this work, we apply deep active learning to the field of design optimization to reduce the number of computationally expensive numerical simulations widely used in industry and engineering. We are interested in optimizing the design of structural components, where a set of parameters describes the shape. If we can predict the performance based on these parameters and consider only the promising candidates for simulation, there is an enormous potential for saving computing power. We present two query strategies for self-optimization to reduce the computational cost in multi-objective design optimization problems. Our proposed methodology provides an intuitive approach that is easy to apply, offers significant improvements over random sampling, and circumvents the need for uncertainty estimation. We evaluate our strategies on a large dataset from the domain of fluid dynamics and introduce two new evaluation metrics to determine the model's performance. Findings from our evaluation highlights the effectiveness of our query strategies in accelerating design optimization. Furthermore, the introduced method is easily transferable to other self-optimization problems in industry and engineering.

Applications using machine learning (ML), such as highly autonomous driving, depend highly on the performance of the ML model. The data amount and quality used for model training and validation are crucial. If the model cannot detect and interpret a new, rare, or perhaps dangerous situation, often referred to as a corner case, we will likely blame the data for not being good enough or too small in number. However, the implemented ML model and its associated architecture also influence the behavior. Therefore, the occurrence of prediction errors resulting from the ML model itself is not surprising. This work addresses a corner case definition from an ML model's perspective to determine which aspects must be considered. To achieve this goal, we present an overview of properties for corner cases that are beneficial for the description, explanation, reproduction, or synthetic generation of corner cases. To define ML corner cases, we review different considerations in the literature and summarize them in a general description and mathematical formulation, whereby the expected relevance-weighted loss is the key to distinguishing corner cases from common data. Moreover, we show how to operationalize the corner case characteristics to determine the value of a corner case. To conclude, we present the extended taxonomy for ML corner cases by adding the input, model, and deployment levels, considering the influence of the corner case properties.

Continuous Feature Networks: A Novel Method to Process Irregularly and Inconsistently Sampled Data With Position-Dependent Features. Magnussen, Birk Martin; Stern, Claudius; Sick, Bernhard. In International Journal On Advances in Intelligent Systems, 16(3&4). ThinkMind, 2023.

Continuous Kernels have been a recent development in convolutional neural networks. Such kernels are used to process data sampled at different resolutions as well as irregularly and inconsistently sampled data. Convolutional neural networks have the property of translational invariance (e.g., features are detected regardless of their position in the measurement domain), which is unsuitable if the position of detected features is relevant for the prediction task. However, the capabilities of continuous kernels to process irregularly sampled data are still desired. This article introduces the continuous feature network, a novel method utilizing continuous kernels, for detecting global features at absolute positions in the data domain. Through a use case in processing multiple spatially resolved reflection spectroscopy data, which is sampled irregularly and inconsistently, we show that the proposed method is capable of processing such data directly without additional preprocessing or augmentation as is needed using comparable methods. In addition, we show that the proposed method is able to achieve a higher prediction accuracy than a comparable network on a dataset with position-dependent features. Furthermore, a higher robustness to missing data compared to a benchmark network using data interpolation is observed, which allows the network to adapt to sensors with a failure of individual light emitters or detectors without the need for retraining. The article shows how these capabilities stem from the continuous kernels used and how the number of available kernels to be trained affects the model. Finally, the article proposes a method to utilize the introduced method as a base for an interpretable model usable for explainable AI.

Electric vehicles are a means of reducing CO2 emissions in transportation. However, the sustainability of electric vehicle batteries is affected by battery health degradation, which decreases their overall lifetime. This results in a substantial amount of depleted batteries due to replacements. Users have a major impact on battery health degradation through their actions while handling electric vehicles, such as the use of fast charging. To mitigate this problem, this article presents a methodology to generate user guidance for batteryfriendly actions in the upcoming use. Therefore, we first identify general recommendations from related work and combine them with the vehicle context in order to define context-aware recommendations in the form of if–then rules. These context-aware recommendations are then used to generate user advice. Second, the article covers how to predict the vehicle context in order to determine necessary recommendations. Third, a prescriptive recommendation system architecture is proposed, which takes vehicle context information, and produces user guidance. Finally, we test the proposed architecture using fuzzy logic as decision system. Overall, the architecture provides satisfactory user advice

Context information provided along with a dataset can be very helpful for solving a problem because the additional knowledge is already available and does not need to be extracted. Moreover, the context indicates how diverse a dataset is, i.e., how many samples per context category are available to train and test machine learning (ML) models. In this article, we present context annotations for the BDD100k image dataset. The annotations comprise, for instance, information about daytime, road condition (dry/wet), and dirt on the windshield. Sometimes, no or only little data are available for unique or rare combinations of these context attributes. However, data that matches these context conditions is crucial when discussing corner cases: Firstly, most ML models, e.g., object detectors, are not trained on such data, which leads to the assumption that they will perform poorly in those situations. Secondly, data containing corner cases are required for validating ML models. With this in mind, separate ML models dedicated to context detection are useful for expanding the training set with additional data of special interest, such as corner cases.

Active Learning with Fast Model Updates and Class-Balanced Selection for Imbalanced Datasets. Huang, Zhixin; He, Yujiang; Herde, Marek; Huseljic, Denis; Sick, Bernhard. In Workshop on Interactive Adapative Learning (IAL), ECML PKDD, bll 28–45. 2023.

Active learning strategies aim to minimize the number of queried samples for model training. However, two challenges in pool-based deep active learning on imbalanced datasets are observed in experiments: (1) the declining performance of active learning strategies due to imbalanced class distribution; (2)~the lack of sample diversity in acquisition batches due to the absence of timely model updates. This paper proposes the AL-FaMoUS, a general solution combining fast model updates and class-balanced minibatch selection to the active learning process. Furthermore, a simplification of the AL-FaMoUS, which selects one single sample in each acquisition minibatch, is experimentally evaluated on four image and three time-series imbalanced datasets. The results demonstrate that the implemented AL-FaMoUS outperforms the other adopted AL strategies, including uncertainty sampling and BALD solely combined with either the fast model update or the class balance selection strategy, in terms of accuracy and Macro F1 score.

Weisfeiler-Lehman goes Dynamic: An Analysis of the Expressive Power of Graph Neural Networks for Attributed and Dynamic Graphs. Beddar-Wiesing, Silvia; D’Inverno, Giuseppe Alessio; Graziani, Caterina; Lachi, Veronica; Moallemy-Oureh, Alice; Scarselli, Franco; Thomas, Josephine. In arXiv e-prints, bl arXiv:2210.03990. 2022.

Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) are a large class of relational models for graph processing. Recent theoretical studies on the expressive power of GNNs have focused on two issues. On the one hand, it has been proven that GNNs are as powerful as the Weisfeiler-Lehman test (1-WL) in their ability to distinguish graphs. Moreover, it has been shown that the equivalence enforced by 1-WL equals unfolding equivalence. On the other hand, GNNs turned out to be universal approximators on graphs modulo the constraints enforced by 1-WL/unfolding equivalence. However, these results only apply to Static Undirected Homogeneous Graphs with node attributes. In contrast, real-life applications often involve a variety of graph properties, such as, e.g., dynamics or node and edge attributes. In this paper, we conduct a theoretical analysis of the expressive power of GNNs for these two graph types that are particularly of interest. Dynamic graphs are widely used in modern applications, and its theoretical analysis requires new approaches. The attributed type acts as a standard form for all graph types since it has been shown that all graph types can be transformed without loss to Static Undirected Homogeneous Graphs with attributes on nodes and edges (SAUHG). The study considers generic GNN models and proposes appropriate 1-WL tests for those domains. Then, the results on the expressive power of GNNs are extended by proving that GNNs have the same capability as the 1-WL test in distinguishing dynamic and attributed graphs, the 1-WL equivalence equals unfolding equivalence and that GNNs are universal approximators modulo 1-WL/unfolding equivalence. Moreover, the proof of the approximation capability holds for SAUHGs, which include most of those used in practical applications, and it is constructive in nature allowing to deduce hints on the architecture of GNNs that can achieve the desired accuracy.

Renewable power generation forecasts using machine learning are typically implemented as single-task learning models, where a separate model is trained for each photovoltaic or wind park. In recent years, transfer learning is gaining popularity in these systems, as it can be used to transfer the knowledge gained from source parks to a target park. However, for transferring the knowledge to a target park, there is a need to determine the most similar source park(s) among the existing parks. This similarity determination using historical power measurements is challenging when the target park has limited to no historical data samples. Therefore, we propose a simple multi-task learning architecture that initially learns a common representation of input weather features among the tasks, using a Unified Autoencoder (UAE) and then learns the task specific information utilizing a Task Embedding layer in a Neural Network (TENN). This proposed architecture, UAE-TENN, can be easily extended to new parks with or without historical data. An elaborate performance comparison of single and multi-task learning models is performed on six photovoltaic and wind farm datasets comprising a total of 529 parks. UAE-TENN significantly improves the performance of power forecasting by 10 to 19% for photovoltaic parks and 5 to 22% for wind parks compared to the baseline models. Even in the zero-shot learning scenario, when there is no historical data, we successfully demonstrate that the UAE-TENN improves the forecast accuracy for a new park by 19% for photovoltaic parks.

Transfer learning (TL), the next frontier in machine learning (ML), has gained much popularity in recent years, due to the various challenges faced in ML, like the requirement of vast amounts of training data, expensive and time-consuming labelling processes for data samples, and long training duration for models. TL is useful in tackling these problems, as it focuses on transferring knowledge from previously solved tasks to new tasks. Digital twins and other intelligent systems need to utilise TL to use the previously gained knowledge and solve new tasks in a more self-reliant way, and to incrementally increase their knowledge base. Therefore, in this article, the critical challenges in power forecasting and anomaly detection in the context of renewable energy systems are identified, and a potential TL framework to meet these challenges is proposed. This article also proposes a feature embedding approach to handle the missing sensors data. The proposed TL methods help to make a system more autonomous in the context of organic computing.

Three-dimensional close-to-substrate trajectories of magnetic microparticles in dynamically changing magnetic field landscapes.

The transport of magnetic particles (MPs) by dynamic magnetic field landscapes (MFLs) using magnetically patterned substrates is promising for the development of Lab-on-a-chip (LOC) systems. The inherent close-to-substrate MP motion is sensitive to changing particle–substrate interactions. Thus, the detection of a modified particle–substrate separation distance caused by surface binding of an analyte is expected to be a promising probe in analytics and diagnostics. Here, we present an essential prerequisite for such an application, namely the label-free quantitative experimental determination of the three-dimensional trajectories of superparamagnetic particles (SPPs) transported by a dynamically changing MFL. The evaluation of defocused SPP images from optical bright-field microscopy revealed a “hopping”-like motion of the magnetic particles, previously predicted by theory, additionally allowing a quantification of maximum jump heights. As our findings pave the way towards precise determination of particle–substrate separations, they bear deep implications for future LOC detection schemes using only optical microscopy.

Due to the ongoing trend towards a decarbonisation of energy use, the power system is expected to become the backbone of all energy sectors and thus the fundamental critical infrastructure. High penetration with distributed energy resources demands the coordination of a large number of prosumers, partly controlled by home energy management systems (HEMS), to be designed in such a way that the power system’s operational limits are not violated. On the grid level, distribution management systems (DMS) seek to keep the power system in the normal operational state. On the prosumer level, distributed HEMS optimise the internal power flows by setpoint specification of batteries, photovoltaic generators, or flexible loads. The vision of the ODiS (Organic Distribution System) initiative is to develop an architecture to operate a distribution grid reliably, with high resiliency, and fully autonomously by developing “organic” HEMS and DMS which possess multiple self-x capabilities, collectively referred to as self-management. Thus, ODiS seeks answers to the following question: How can we create the most appropriate models, techniques, and algorithms to develop novel kinds of self-configuring, self-organising, self-healing, and self-optimising DMS that are integrally coupled with the distributed HEMS? In this concept paper, the vision of ODiS is presented in detail based on a thorough review of the state of the art.

Graphs have recently become more popular for modeling real-world as well as theoretical problems, and several Machine Learning algorithms for learning on them have developed. For graphs that change over time, however, research is still at an early stage. This article proposes a framework DynHeatmaP that generates a constant-size graph sequence representation of graphs whose structure changes over time (structural-dynamic, SDG) in linear time. The framework uses a representation of additions and deletions of nodes and edges (events) to perform dynamic graph pooling. Our algorithm translates the dynamic changes of the nodes and edges to a heatmap representation of the current node activity, regarding additions and deletions in the neighborhood, respectively. The created activity heatmap is utilized as probabilities of the nodes to be sampled in the subsequent pooling step. In addition, the neighborhood of selected nodes has been sampled such that the ratio of additions and deletions is represented accordingly. The obtained downsampled graph sequence can then be used representatively as input to a GNN for learning on the original stream. Focussing on the active regions in a graph, the fast pooling process can reduce the training time significantly and addresses the problem of unbalanced datasets in real-world applications modeled as sparse graphs.

The history of neural networks dates back to the early 1940s and has not only evolved rapidly over time but they are now amongst one of the most popular and powerful machine learning techniques. In this area, graph representation learning (GRL) using graph neural networks (GNNs) has emerged during the early 90s and developed into an impactful approach for modeling graph-structured real-world data, such as social or biological networks. There are a variety of successful applications of GRL in computational neuroscience, chemistry, mathematics, and so on. While temporal changes (dynamics) play an essential role in many real-world applications, most of the literature on GNNs and GRL, deals with static graphs. Since the few GNN models on dynamic graphs only consider exceptional cases of dynamics (i.e., attribute-dynamic graphs in discrete-time representation or structure-dynamic graphs in continuous-time representation), we aim to present a novel GNN model that can handle attribute-dynamic graphs in continuous time. This model learns any kind of graph information embedding, performs node/edge attribute forecasts, and allows for attribute-dynamic graph generation in both discrete and continuous-time.

Stream-Based Active Learning in Changing Environments under Verification Latency. Pham, Tuan. In Organic Computing -- Doctoral Dissertation Colloquium 2021, S. Tomforde, C. Krupitzer (reds.), bll 152–164. kassel university press, 2022.

Labeling data often requires human interaction, which is slow and costly depending on the required expertise. Stream-based active learning reduces the cost of labeling for data stream mining by only querying the labels for instances that improve the classifier the most. However, state-of-the-art stream-based active learning strategies assume that verification latency, i.e., the time between a query and the availability of the queried label, is negligible. In reality, this is usually not the case as the experts who provide such labels are not available all the time, and the labeling process itself requires time. This article investigates the impact of verification latency within a stream-based active learning scenario for changing data streams. We focus on two different types of changes that occur over time, i.e., changes in the number of features and changes in the distribution of instances and/or labels. In particular, we identify challenges that occur due to verification latency and propose ideas to overcome these problems within a stream-based active learning strategy.

Trajectory data analysis is an essential component for highly automated driving. Complex models developed with these data predict other road users’ movement and behavior patterns. Based on these predictions — and additional contextual information such as the course of the road, (traffic) rules, and interaction with other road users — the highly automated vehicle (HAV) must be able to reliably and safely perform the task assigned to it, e.g., moving from point A to B. Ideally, the HAV moves safely through its environment, just as we would expect a human driver to do. However, if unusual trajectories occur, so-called trajectory corner cases, a human driver can usually cope well, but an HAV can quickly get into trouble. In the definition of trajectory corner cases, which we provide in this work, we will consider the relevance of unusual trajectories with respect to the task at hand. Based on this, we will also present a taxonomy of different trajectory corner cases. The categorization of corner cases into the taxonomy will be shown with examples and is done by cause and required data sources. To illustrate the complexity between the machine learning (ML) model and the corner case cause, we present a general processing chain underlying the taxonomy.

Besides infrastructure-based solutions, small-scale microsystems are increasingly connected and interoperating with others in changing environments. Following the same motivation as for self-adaptive systems, this demands novel attempts to counter complexity and provide autonomous decision freedom that paves the path towards resilient and flexible behaviour. In this article, we outline a vision for research on self-aware microsystems (SAM) that aims at providing technical solutions that are especially relevant for initiatives such as self-improving system integration.

Electromobility plays an increasingly important role in the energy transition. Electric vehicle charging poses challenges to the electricity grid due to high peak demand situations. Therefore, it is crucial to leverage the vehicle's flexibility when charging can be delayed. Conventional charging management systems cannot adapt to frequently changing conditions such as fluctuating renewable energy output, electricity prices and user behavior. In this article, we investigate the application of reinforcement learning approaches for self-adaptive charging management. In particular, we identify challenges regarding realistic environments and adaption to varying topologies and connections among charging stations. We describe related approaches and propose ideas and planned experiments to overcome these problems by utilizing generative models and graph neural networks.

Context: Smart and adaptive Systems, such as self-adaptive and self-organising (SASO) systems, typically consist of a large set of highly autonomous and heterogeneous subsystems that are able to adapt their behaviour to the requirements of ever-changing, dynamic environments. Their successful operation is based on appropriate modelling of the internal and external conditions. Objective: The control problem for establishing a near-to-optimal coordinated behaviour of systems with multiple, potentially conflicting objectives is either approached in a distributed (i.e., fully autonomous by the autonomous subsystems) or in a centralised way (i.e. one instance controlling the optimisation and planning process). In the distributed approach, selfish behaviour and being limited to local knowledge may lead to sub-optimal system behaviour, while the centralised approach ignores the autonomy and the coordination efforts of parts of the system. Method: In this article, we present a concept for a hybrid (i.e., integrating a central optimisation with a distributed decision-making process) system management that combines local reinforcement learning and self-awareness mechanisms of fully autonomous subsystems with external system-wide planning and optimisation of adaptation freedom that steers the behaviour dynamically by issuing plans and guidelines augmented with incentivisation schemes. Results: This work addresses the inherent uncertainty of the dynamic system behaviour, the local autonomous and context-aware learning of subsystems, and proactive control based on adaptiveness. We provide the ‘swarm-fleet infrastructure’—a self-organised taxi service established by autonomous, privately-owned cars—as a testbed for structured comparison of systems. Conclusion: The ‘swarm-fleet infrastructure’ supports the advantages of a proactive hybrid self-adaptive and self-organising system operation. Further, we provide a system model to combine the system-wide optimisation while ensuring local decision-making through reinforcement learning for individualised configurations.

This work focuses on the prediction of hot deformation behavior of thermo-mechanically processed precipitation hardenable aluminum alloy AA7075. Data available are focusing on a novel hot forming process at different tool temperatures ranging from 24°C to 350°C to set different cooling rates after solution-heat-treatment. Isothermal uniaxial tensile tests in the temperature range from 200°C to 400°C and at strain rates ranging from 0.001 s^-1 to 0.1 s^-1 were carried out on four different material conditions. The present paper mainly focuses on a comparative study of modeling techniques based on Machine Learning (ML) and the well-known Zerilli-Armstrong model (Z-A) as an empirically based reference. Work focused on predicting single data points of curves that the model was trained on. Due to the novel way data were split with respect to training and testing data, it becomes possible to predict entire stress-strain curves which leads to a reduction in the number of required laboratory experiments, finally saving costs and time in future experiments. While all investigated ML methods showed a higher performance than the Z-A model, the extreme Gradient Boosting model (XGB) showed the superior results, i.e., highest error reduction of 91% with respect to the Mean Squared Error.

In this article, an approach for probabilistic trajectory forecasting of vulnerable road users (VRUs) is presented, taking into consideration past movements and the surrounding environment. Past movements are represented by 3D poses reflecting the posture and movements of individual body parts. The surrounding environment is modeled in the form of semantic maps showing, e.g., the course of streets, sidewalks, and the occurrence of obstacles. Forecasts are generated in grids discretizing the space and in the form of arbitrary discrete probability distributions. The distributions are evaluated for their reliability, sharpness, and positional accuracy. We compare our method with two approaches providing forecasts in the form of continuous probability distributions, and we discuss their respective advantages and disadvantages. We thereby investigate the impact of poses and semantic maps. Using a technique we refer to as spatial label smoothing, our approach is able to achieve reliable forecasts. Overall, the 3D poses have a positive impact on the forecasts. The semantic maps facilitate the adaptation of the probability distributions to the individual situation and prevent forecasts of trajectories leading through obstacles. Our method is evaluated on a dataset recorded in inner-city traffic using a research vehicle. The dataset has been made publicly available.

We compare our method with two approaches providing forecasts in the form of continuous probability distributions, and we discuss their respective advantages and disadvantages. We thereby investigate the impact of poses and semantic maps. Using a technique we refer to as spatial label smoothing, our approach is able to achieve reliable forecasts. Overall, the 3D poses have a positive impact on the forecasts. The semantic maps facilitate the adaptation of the probability distributions to the individual situation and prevent forecasts of trajectories leading through obstacles. Our method is evaluated on a dataset recorded in inner-city traffic using a research vehicle. The dataset has been made publicly available.

Superconducting photoelectron injectors are promising for generating highly brilliant pulsed electron beams with high repetition rates and low emittances. Experiments such as ultrafast electron diffraction, experiments at the Terahertz scale, and energy recovery linac applications require such properties. However, optimizing the beam properties is challenging due to the high number of possible machine parameter combinations. This article shows the successful automated optimization of beam properties utilizing an already existing simulation model. To reduce the required computation time, we replace the costly simulation with a faster approximation with a neural network. For optimization, we propose a reinforcement learning approach leveraging the simple computation of the derivative of the approximation. We prove that our approach outperforms standard optimization methods for the required function evaluations given a defined minimum accuracy.

Electromobility (e-mobility) reduces global fossil fuel-based energy demand and promotes the usage of renewable energy sources. Different types of electric vehicle (EVs) production have increased recently due to their need. However, there is no fixed charging behavior, and demand exists. Uncontrolled EV charging may lead to a harmful impact on the power grid. Besides, most renewable energy sources depend highly on the weather and location. Thus, analyzing, forecasting, and adapting EV charging demand is essential to prevent power outages. Deep Learning (DL) models are a de facto standard technology for energy forecasting in many scenarios. Still, there is a lack of real-world data in the e-mobility domain to train a DL model from scratch. Besides, DL models have explainability issues, which can hinder decision-making. This article proposes a novel framework for addressing data scarcity issues, enabling continuous adaptation to change, and improving explainability.

Graphs are ubiquitous in nature and can therefore serve as models for many practical but also theoretical problems. Based on this, the young research field of Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) has emerged. Despite the youth of the field and the speed in which new models are developed, many good surveys have been published in the last years. Nevertheless, an overview on which graph types can be modeled by GNNs is missing. In this survey, we give a detailed overview of already existing GNNs and, unlike previous surveys, categorize them according to their ability to handle different graph types and properties. We consider GNNs operating on static as well as on dynamic graphs of different structural constitutions, with or without node or edge attributes. Moreover in the dynamic case, we separate the models in discrete-time and continuous-time dynamic graphs based on their architecture. While ordering the existing GNN models, we find, that there are still graph types, that are not or only rarely covered by existing GNN models. We point out where models are missing and give potential reasons for their absence.

Generating Synthetic Time Series for Machine-Learning-Empowered Monitoring of Electric Motor Test Benches. Westmeier, Tobias; Botache, Diego; Bieshaar, Maarten; Sick, Bernhard. In IEEE International Conference on Data Science and Advanced Analytics (DSAA), bll 513–522. IEEE, 2022.

The development of new electric traction machines is a time-consuming process as it involves intensive testing on motor test benches. Machine-Learning-empowered monitoring offers the opportunity to anticipate costly failures early and hence reducing development time. However, machine learning (ML) for process monitoring requires large amounts of training data, especially as the targeted fault states are scarce and yet diverse in their appearances. Therefore, we propose to use synthetic time series data to leverage the high cost of acquiring training data from experiments in real test benches. In this article, we present a novel scheme to generate synthetic data based on a sub-dimensional time series representation. We introduce a highly flexible model by mapping the data to a latent representation and approximating the latent data distribution by a Gaussian Mixture Model. In addition, we propose the Frechet InceptionTime Distance (FITD) as a new distance measure to evaluate the generated data. It allows extracting characteristics at different scales by using multiple kernel sizes. In this way, we ensure that the synthesized data contains characteristics similar to those present in the real data. In our experiment, we train two types of fault detectors, one based on real data of a motor test bench and the other based on synthetic data. We also consider employing fault-aware conditional architectures to generate training data for different fault types explicitly. Our final results show that using synthesized data in the training process increases the performance in terms of classification accuracy score (CAS) up to 29%.

Dynamic Graph Neural Networks recently became more and more important as graphs from many scientific fields, ranging from mathematics, biology, social sciences, and physics to computer science, are dynamic by nature. While temporal changes (dynamics) play an essential role in many real-world applications, most of the models in the literature on Graph Neural Networks (GNN) process static graphs. The few GNN models on dynamic graphs only consider exceptional cases of dynamics, e.g., node attribute-dynamic graphs or structure-dynamic graphs limited to additions or changes to the graph's edges, etc. Therefore, we present a novel Fully Dynamic Graph Neural Network (FDGNN) that can handle fully-dynamic graphs in continuous time. The proposed method provides a node and an edge embedding that includes their activity to address added and deleted nodes or edges, and possible attributes. Furthermore, the embeddings specify Temporal Point Processes for each event to encode the distributions of the structure- and attribute-related incoming graph events. In addition, our model can be updated efficiently by considering single events for local retraining.

Retraining deep neural networks when new data arrives is typically computationally expensive. Moreover, certain applications do not allow such costly retraining due to time or computational constraints. Fast Bayesian updates are a possible solution to this issue. Therefore, we propose a Bayesian update based on Monte-Carlo samples and a last-layer Laplace approximation for different Bayesian neural network types, i.e., Dropout, Ensemble, and Spectral Normalized Neural Gaussian Process (SNGP). In a large-scale evaluation study, we show that our updates combined with SNGP represent a fast and competitive alternative to costly retraining. As a use case, we combine the Bayesian updates for SNGP with different sequential query strategies to exemplarily demonstrate their improved selection performance in active learning.

One of the major limitations of deploying a machine learning model is the availability of labeled training data and the resulting expensive annotation process. Although active learning (AL) methods may reduce the annotation cost by actively selecting the most-useful instances, a costly human annotator usually provides the labels. Therefore, even with AL, we still consider the annotation process to be time-consuming and expensive. Besides human annotators, though, companies often have a vast amount of information and knowledge sources available that can generate low-cost labels (e.g., a black-box model) or improve the learning process (e.g., a pre-trained model). We present a novel approach that enhances AL with weak supervision (WS) and transfer learning (TL) to reduce the annotation cost by leveraging these sources. Specifically, we consider a black-box model like a rule-based system as an error-prone and weakly-supervised annotator that inexpensively provides labels. We estimate its performance with an annotator model to decide whether a human annotation is required. Additionally, we utilize unlabeled internal and external data by transferring knowledge from a pre-trained model to the AL cycle. We sequentially investigate the impact of WS and TL on annotation cost and model performance in an AL cycle through a use case. Our evaluation shows that our approach can reduce annotation cost by 51% while achieving nearly identical model performance compared to a traditional AL approach.

Support Vector Data Description (SVDD) is a popular one-class classifier for anomaly and novelty detection. But despite its effectiveness, SVDD does not scale well with data size. To avoid prohibitive training times, sampling methods select small subsets of the training data on which SVDD trains a decision boundary hopefully equivalent to the one obtained on the full data set. According to the literature, a good sample should therefore contain so-called boundary observations that SVDD would select as support vectors on the full data set. However, non-boundary observations also are essential to not fragment contiguous inlier regions and avoid poor classification accuracy. Other aspects, such as selecting a sufficiently representative sample, are important as well. But existing sampling methods largely overlook them, resulting in poor classification accuracy. In this article, we study how to select a sample considering these points. Our approach is to frame SVDD sampling as an optimization problem, where constraints guarantee that sampling indeed approximates the original decision boundary. We then propose RAPID, an efficient algorithm to solve this optimization problem. RAPID does not require any tuning of parameters, is easy to implement and scales well to large data sets. We evaluate our approach on real-world and synthetic data. Our evaluation is the most comprehensive one for SVDD sampling so far. Our results show that RAPID outperforms its competitors in classification accuracy, in sample size, and in runtime.

This article introduces a research proposal that aims to deﬁne, detect, and evaluate corner cases in the context of machine learning (ML) systems and highly automated driving. Corner cases are scenarios or data in a dataset that are recorded only very rarely and therefore only available in small quantities or not at all in the dataset. However, corner cases are very important for model training, as they are needed to improve the model performance in these rare scenarios. On the other hand, in safety- and security-critical applications, such as highly automated driving, corner case data is extremely important for testing and verifying the ML system. The research proposal addresses these challenges and focuses on the deﬁnition and categorization of corner cases. Based on this, ML methods for corner case detection are developed, focusing on object detection for automated driving and trajectory data for intention detection of pedestrians and cyclists. Finally, the research proposal addresses corner case metrics and the evaluation of the developed detection models.

Design of Explainability Module with Experts in the Loop for Visualization and Dynamic Adjustment of Continual Learning. He, Yujiang; Huang, Zhixin; Sick, Bernhard. In Workshop on Interactive Machine Learning Workshop (IMLW), AAAI, bll 1–6. 2022.

Continual learning can enable neural networks to evolve by learning new tasks sequentially in task-changing scenarios. However, two general challenges should be overcome in further research before we apply this technique to real-world applications. Firstly, newly collected novelties from the data stream in applications could contain anomalies that are meaningless for continual learning. Instead of viewing them as a new task for updating, we have to filter out such anomalies to reduce the disturbance of extremely high-entropy data for the progression of convergence. Secondly, fewer efforts have been put into research regarding the explainability of continual learning, which leads to a lack of transparency and credibility of the updated neural networks. Elaborated explanations about the process and result of continual learning can help experts in judgment and making decisions. Therefore, we propose the conceptual design of an explainability module with experts in the loop based on techniques, such as dimension reduction, visualization, and evaluation strategies. This work aims to overcome the mentioned challenges by sufficiently explaining and visualizing the identified anomalies and the updated neural network. With the help of this module, experts can be more confident in decision-making regarding anomaly filtering, dynamic adjustment of hyperparameters, data backup, etc.

Electromobility can reduce global energy demand by reducing the dependence on fossil fuels. Many different types of electric vehicles (EVs) have been produced recently and EV usage is also rising. However, there is no fixed charging behavior of these EV users. Moreover, most renewable energy sources are stochastic in nature. Thus, it is essential that EV charging demand is controlled and adapted in advance to prevent catastrophic failures such as blackouts. Deep learning models are standard technology for power forecasting in many scenarios. However, there is a lack of real-world heterogeneous multi-source data in the e-mobility domain to train a deep learning model from scratch. Moreover, deep learning (DL) models lack model explainability. Therefore, EV stakeholders can benefit from a framework that coordinates deep transfer learning, interactive machine learning, and heterogeneous graph representation learning (to ensure self-explainability). This work aims to develop a novel framework to solve e-mobility-related tasks such as forecasting EV loads efficiently in a resource-constrained environment (data, computing power, etc.). It also describe various research challenges and potential approaches to build the proposed framework. This work also present a deep generative model to synthesize EV charging session data.

Artificial intelligence for online characterization of ultrashort X‑ray free‑electron laser pulses.

X-ray free-electron lasers (XFELs) as the world’s brightest light sources provide ultrashort X-ray pulses with a duration typically in the order of femtoseconds. Recently, they have approached and entered the attosecond regime, which holds new promises for single-molecule imaging and studying nonlinear and ultrafast phenomena such as localized electron dynamics. The technological evolution of XFELs toward well-controllable light sources for precise metrology of ultrafast processes has been, however, hampered by the diagnostic capabilities for characterizing X-ray pulses at the attosecond frontier. In this regard, the spectroscopic technique of photoelectron angular streaking has successfully proven how to non-destructively retrieve the exact time–energy structure of XFEL pulses on a single-shot basis. By using artificial intelligence techniques, in particular convolutional neural networks, we here show how this technique can be leveraged from its proof-of-principle stage toward routine diagnostics even at high-repetition-rate XFELs, thus enhancing and refining their scientific accessibility in all related disciplines.

Compared with traditional deep learning techniques, continual learning enables deep neural networks to learn continually and adaptively. Deep neural networks have to learn unseen tasks and overcome forgetting the knowledge obtained from previously learned tasks as the amount of data keeps increasing in applications. This article proposes two continual learning application scenarios, i.e., the target-domain incremental scenario and the data-domain incremental scenario, to describe the potential challenges in this context. Based on our previous work regarding the CLeaR framework, which is short for continual learning for regression tasks, models will be enabled to extend themselves and to learn data successively. Research topics are related, but not limited, to developing continual deep learning algorithms, strategies for non-stationarity detection in data streams, explainable and visualizable artificial intelligence, etc. Moreover, the framework- and algorithm-related hyperparameters should be dynamically updated in applications. Forecasting experiments will be conducted based on power generation and consumption data collected from real-world applications. A series of comprehensive evaluation metrics and visualization tools are applied to access the experimental results. The proposed framework is expected to be generally applied to other constantly changing scenarios.

Experiments are the elective tool for developing new technologies, testing hypotheses, and designing new materials in many scientific fields. Thereby, it is state-of-the-art to create experiments traditionally, starting with a hypothesis leading to the product or relevant data after several experiment cycles. There are some techniques such as automation, parallelization, or inverse design to accelerate experiments. Particularly interesting, however, is the approach to integrate immediate data analysis into the experiment cycle. By analyzing experiment output data on-site using, e.g., neural networks, one can make inferences regarding the experiment's current settings at run-time and furthermore improve them. In the following research project, the goal is to develop and incorporate a data analysis stage into an experimental setup, which can be actively adapted and designed on-site. To demonstrate the developed method, the experimental design of a self-amplification of spontaneous emission pulse characterization experiment at a free-electron laser will be used to show to what extent the experiment can be adapted and optimized.

Multivariate time series anomaly detection is an important research field of industry, science, and finances. In practical applications, unlabeled data is abundant, and labeled data is rare. Experts’ experience plays a key role in data labeling, while experts often have limited time, are expensive, and are concerned primarily with finding the potential anomalies. Active learning, which has been widely used to select the most informative data for labeling through experts, can improve training with less labeling effort. However, most active learning algorithms have not been evaluated on datasets with imbalanced class frequencies, such as anomaly detection. Although some semi-supervised and active learning methods were proposed to handle univariate time series data, not much work has been done on multivariate time series classification. Therefore, this article identifies critical challenges and proposes potential solutions for active learning in multivariate time series anomaly detection. We combine all possible solutions into a framework that conforms to the scope of the observation/control system in organic computing.

Experts’ experience plays a key role in data labeling, while experts often have limited time, are expensive, and are concerned primarily with finding the potential anomalies. Active learning, which has been widely used to select the most informative data for labeling through experts, can improve training with less labeling effort. However, most active learning algorithms have not been evaluated on datasets with imbalanced class frequencies, such as anomaly detection. Although some semi-supervised and active learning methods were proposed to handle univariate time series data, not much work has been done on multivariate time series classification. Therefore, this article identifies critical challenges and proposes potential solutions for active learning in multivariate time series anomaly detection. We combine all possible solutions into a framework that conforms to the scope of the observation/control system in organic computing.

In transductive active learning, the goal is to determine the correct labels for an unlabeled, known dataset. Therefore, we can either ask an oracle to provide the right label at some cost or use the prediction of a classifier which we train on the labels acquired so far. In contrast, the commonly used (inductive) active learning aims to select instances for labeling out of the unlabeled set to create a generalized classifier, which will be deployed on unknown data. This article formally defines the transductive setting and shows that it requires new solutions. Additionally, we formalize the theoretically cost-optimal stopping point for the transductive scenario. Building upon the probabilistic active learning framework, we propose a new transductive selection strategy that includes a stopping criterion and show its superiority.

A Review of Uncertainty Calibration in Pretrained Object Detectors. Huseljic, Denis; Herde, Marek; Muejde, Mehmet; Sick, Bernhard. In arXiv e-prints, bl arXiv:2210.02935. 2022.

In the field of deep learning based computer vision, the development of deep object detection has led to unique paradigms (e.g., two-stage or set-based) and architectures (e.g., Faster-RCNN or DETR) which enable outstanding performance on challenging benchmark datasets. Despite this, the trained object detectors typically do not reliably assess uncertainty regarding their own knowledge, and the quality of their probabilistic predictions is usually poor. As these are often used to make subsequent decisions, such inaccurate probabilistic predictions must be avoided. In this work, we investigate the uncertainty calibration properties of different pretrained object detection architectures in a multi-class setting. We propose a framework to ensure a fair, unbiased, and repeatable evaluation and conduct detailed analyses assessing the calibration under distributional changes (e.g., distributional shift and application to out-of-distribution data). Furthermore, by investigating the influence of different detector paradigms, post-processing steps, and suitable choices of metrics, we deliver novel insights into why poor detector calibration emerges. Based on these insights, we are able to improve the calibration of a detector by simply finetuning its last layer.

Deep learning models are trained most successfully in a supervised manner, which requires vast amounts of annotated data. With active learning, the annotation process can be made much more efficient by intelligently selecting the most valuable batches of samples to annotate and train on. Those samples are selected based on their utility regarding the training algorithm. In this work, we examine a wide range of such selection criteria for the task of object detection as performed by the widely applied Faster R-CNN model. We focus on the large and diverse BDD100K autonomous driving dataset, paying special attention to the model’s sub-tasks and the dataset’s meta information. Furthermore, we distinguish between approaches that select samples based on aleatoric or epistemic uncertainty. A selection of evaluation measures that cover specific error sources and the overall model performance suggests that there is little difference between the individual active learning approaches, even in regards to their specialized focus on different model parts and sub-tasks. We conclude with a detailed discussion of the implied mechanisms regarding the active learning approaches that seem to affect model performances.

A Holistic View on Probabilistic Trajectory Forecasting -- Case Study: Cyclist Intention Detection. Zernetsch, Stefan; Reichert, Hannes; Kress, Viktor; Doll, Konrad; Sick, Bernhard. In IEEE Intelligent Vehicles Symposium (IV), bll 265–272. IEEE, 2022.

This article presents a holistic approach for probabilistic cyclist intention detection. By combining probabilities for the current cyclist motion states with a probabilistic ensemble trajectory forecast, we are able to generate reliable estimates of cyclists’ future positions. The probabilities are used as weights in the probabilistic ensemble trajectory forecast. The ensemble consists of specialized models, which produce individual forecasts in the form of Gaussian distributions under the assumption of a certain motion state of the cyclist (e.g. cyclist is starting). By weighting the specialized models, we create forecasts in the form of Gaussian mixtures that define regions within which the cyclists will reside with a certain probability. To evaluate our method, we rate the reliability, sharpness, and positional accuracy of our forecasted distributions. We compare our method to a widely used unimodal approach which produces forecasts in the form of Gaussian distributions and show that our method is able to produce more reliable and sharper outputs while retaining comparable positional accuracy. By comparing two different methods for basic movement detection, one based on the past cyclist trajectory and one using past image sequences, we demonstrate that the results can be further improved by incorporating video information. Our methods are evaluated using a dataset created at a public intersection. The code and the dataset are publicly available.

Active learning (AL) techniques hardly cope with complex annotations tasks, where, for example, annotations might express relationships across data modalities. As a use case, we consider the task of automatically detecting and reporting multimodal, polarized web content (PWC). Samples of this content type emerge dynamically, covering a broad spectrum of topics. Thus, training machine learning systems for detecting PWC is challenging, particularly if it needs to be done with minimum annotation cost. In this article, we propose the concept of multimodal AL for complex annotations in the context of PWC detection and formulate the resulting challenges as questions for future research.

Magnetic Janus particles (MJPs), fabricated by covering a non-magnetic spherical particle with a hemispherical magnetic in-plane exchange-bias layer system cap, display an onion magnetization state for comparably large diameters of a few microns. In this work, the motion characteristics of these MJPs will be investigated when they are steered by a magnetic field landscape over prototypical parallel-stripe domains, dynamically varied by superposed external magnetic field pulse sequences, in an aqueous medium. We demonstrate, that due to the engineered magnetization state in the hemispherical cap, a comparably fast, directed particle transport and particle rotation can be induced. Additionally, by modifying the frequency of the applied pulse sequence and the strengths of the individual field components, we observe a possible separation between a combined or an individual occurrence of these two types of motion. Our findings bear importance for lab-on-a-chip systems, where particle immobilization on a surface via analyte bridges shall be used for low concentration analyte detection and a particle rotation over a defined position of a substrate may dramatically increase the immobilization (and therefore analyte detection) probability.

Toward optimal probabilistic active learning using a Bayesian approach. Kottke, Daniel; Herde, Marek; Sandrock, Christoph; Huseljic, Denis; Krempl, Georg; Sick, Bernhard. In Machine Learning, 110(6), bll 1199–1231. Springer, 2021.

Gathering labeled data to train well-performing machine learning models is one of the critical challenges in many applications. Active learning aims at reducing the labeling costs by an efficient and effective allocation of costly labeling resources. In this article, we propose a decision-theoretic selection strategy that (1) directly optimizes the gain in misclassification error, and (2) uses a Bayesian approach by introducing a conjugate prior distribution to determine the class posterior to deal with uncertainties. By reformulating existing selection strategies within our proposed model, we can explain which aspects are not covered in current state-of-the-art and why this leads to the superior performance of our approach. Extensive experiments on a large variety of datasets and different kernels validate our claims.

X-ray free-electron lasers (XFELs) as the world`s most brilliant light sources provide ultrashort X-ray pulses with durations typically on the order of femtoseconds. Recently, they have approached and entered the attosecond regime, which holds new promises for single-molecule imaging and studying nonlinear and ultrafast phenomena like localized electron dynamics. The technological evolution of XFELs toward well-controllable light sources for precise metrology of ultrafast processes was, however, hampered by the diagnostic capabilities for characterizing X-ray pulses at the attosecond frontier. In this regard, the spectroscopic technique of photoelectron angular streaking has successfully proven how to non-destructively retrieve the exact time-energy structure of XFEL pulses on a single-shot basis. By using artificial intelligence algorithms, in particular convolutional neural networks, we here show how this technique can be leveraged from its proof-of-principle stage toward routine diagnostics at XFELs, thus enhancing and refining their scientific access in all related disciplines.

The research initiative “self-improving system integration” (SISSY) was established with the goal to master the ever-changing demands of system organisation in the presence of autonomous subsystems, evolving architectures, and highly-dynamic open environments. It aims to move integration-related decisions from design-time to run-time, implying a further shift of expertise and responsibility from human engineers to autonomous systems. This introduces a qualitative shift from existing self-adaptive and self-organising systems, moving from self-adaptation based on predefined variation types, towards more open contexts involving novel autonomous subsystems, collaborative behaviours, and emerging goals. In this article, we revisit existing SISSY research efforts and establish a corresponding terminology focusing on how SISSY relates to the broad field of integration sciences. We then investigate SISSY-related research efforts and derive a taxonomy of SISSY technology. This is concluded by establishing a research road-map for developing operational self-improving self-integrating systems.

Machine learning applications often need large amounts of training data to perform well. Whereas unlabeled data can be easily gathered, the labeling process is difficult, time-consuming, or expensive in most applications. Active learning can help solve this problem by querying labels for those data points that will improve the performance the most. Thereby, the goal is that the learning algorithm performs sufficiently well with fewer labels. We provide a library called scikit-activeml that covers the most relevant query strategies and implements tools to work with partially labeled data. It is programmed in Python and builds on top of scikit-learn.

The proposed approach is based on approximate dynamic programming and allows the fast computation of (sub-)optimal discrete and continuous control inputs, either by approximating the optimal cost-to-go functions or by approximating the optimal discrete and continuous input policies. An important property of the approach is the satisfaction of polytopic state and input constraints, which is crucial for ensuring safety, as required in many control applications. A numeric example is provided for illustration and evaluation of the approaches.

Self-improving system integration (SISSY) aims at mastering the challenges of system organisation decisions for subsystems with highly dynamic behaviours. This is achieved by increased decision freedom of these subsystems, i.e., by moving the corresponding design decisions from design-time to run-time and from engineers to the systems themselves. As a result, a more robust and efficient constellation of the overall system organisation is maintained even under the presence of continuous change and disturbed conditions. Appropriate integration decisions require a solid foundation of assessing the current conditions and their dynamics using identifying triggers for a necessary evaluation of their own integration status. With this article, we present mCANDIES, a modular novelty detection technique especially suited for SISSY systems that fulfils exactly these identification tasks. mCANDIES tackles an anomaly or novelty detection problem in a modular way by combining the advantages of different detection approaches by exploiting locality in different regions of the input space — depending on, e.g. the density or location of expected observations. This is augmented with information about changes in the underlying model of the observations, i.e., mCANDIES identifies concept drifts. The corresponding information can then be used to trigger online learning behaviour. We analyse the behaviour of mCANDIES on artificial and real-world data sets and compare it to other techniques from the state of the art.

CLeaR: An adaptive continual learning framework for regression tasks. He, Yujiang; Sick, Bernhard. In AI Perspectives, 3(1), bl 2. Springer, 2020.

Catastrophic forgetting means that a trained neural network model gradually forgets the previously learned tasks when being retrained on new tasks. Overcoming the forgetting problem is a major problem in machine learning. Numerous continual learning algorithms are very successful in incremental learning of classification tasks, where new samples with their labels appear frequently. However, there is currently no research that addresses the catastrophic forgetting problem in regression tasks as far as we know. This problem has emerged as one of the primary constraints in some applications, such as renewable energy forecasts. This article clarifies problem-related definitions and proposes a new methodological framework that can forecast targets and update itself by means of continual learning. The framework consists of forecasting neural networks and buffers, which store newly collected data from a non-stationary data stream in an application. The changed probability distribution of the data stream, which the framework has identified, will be learned sequentially. The framework is called CLeaR (Continual Learning for Regression Tasks), where components can be flexibly customized for a specific application scenario. We design two sets of experiments to evaluate the CLeaR framework concerning fitting error (training), prediction error (test), and forgetting ratio. The first one is based on an artificial time series to explore how hyperparameters affect the CLeaR framework. The second one is designed with data collected from European wind farms to evaluate the CLeaR framework's performance in a real-world application. The experimental results demonstrate that the CLeaR framework can continually acquire knowledge in the data stream and improve the prediction accuracy. The article concludes with further research issues arising from requirements to extend the framework.

Due to its rising importance in science and technology in recent years, particle tracking in videos presents itself as a tool for successfully acquiring new knowledge in the field of life sciences and physics. Accordingly, different particle tracking methods for various scenarios have been developed. In this article, we present a particle tracking application implemented in Python for, in particular, spherical magnetic particles, including superparamagnetic beads and Janus particles. In the following, we distinguish between two sub-steps in particle tracking, namely the localization of particles in single images and the linking of the extracted particle positions of the subsequent frames into trajectories. We provide an intensity-based localization technique to detect particles and two linking algorithms, which apply either frame-by-frame linking or linear assignment problem solving. Beyond that, we offer helpful tools to preprocess images automatically as well as estimate parameters required for the localization algorithm by utilizing machine learning. As an extra, we have implemented a technique to estimate the current spatial orientation of Janus particles within the x-y-plane. Our framework is readily extendable and easy-to-use as we offer a graphical user interface and a command-line tool. Various output options, such as data frames and videos, ensure further analysis that can be automated.

Graphs can have different properties that lead to several graph types and may allow for a varying representation of diverse information. In order to clarify the modeling power of graphs, we introduce a partial order on the most common graph types based on an expressivity relation. The expressivity relation quantifies how many properties a graph type can encode compared to another type. Additionally, we show that all attributed graph types are equally expressive and have the same modeling power.

Probabilistic upscaling and aggregation of wind power forecasts. Henze, Janosch; Siefert, Malte; Bremicker-Trübelhorn, Sascha; Asanalieva, Nazgul; Sick, Bernhard. In Energy, Sustainability and Society, 10(1), bl 15. BMC, 2020.

Wind power forecasts of the expected wind feed-in for the next hours or days are necessary to integrate the generated volatile wind energy into power systems. Most forecasting models predict in some sense the best value, but they ignore the other possible outcomes which may arise because of forecasting uncertainties. Probabilistic forecasts, on the other hand, also predict a distribution of possible outcomes with their respective probabilities that specific power values will occur and therefore have higher information content. In this work, we address two problems that hinder the introduction of probabilistic forecasts in practice: (1) no measurement data are available for some wind farms and (2) the flexible aggregation of probabilistic forecasts for changing wind farm portfolios.

In this paper, we evaluate different popular voting strategies for fusion of classifier results. A convolutional neural network (CNN) and different variants of random forest (RF) classifiers were trained to discriminate between 15 tree species based on airborne hyperspectral imaging data. The spectral data was preprocessed with a multi-class linear discriminant analysis (MCLDA) as a means to reduce dimensionality and to obtain spatial–spectral features. The best individual classifier was a CNN with a classification accuracy of 0.73 +/− 0.086. The classification performance increased to an accuracy of 0.78 +/− 0.053 by using precision weighted voting for a hybrid ensemble of the CNN and two RF classifiers. This voting strategy clearly outperformed majority voting (0.74), accuracy weighted voting (0.75), and presidential voting (0.75).

The self-improving system integration (SISSY) initiative-sometimes also called self-integration-started over six years ago. Recently, we have seen contributions approaching parts of the scope from different directions. In order to provide a better understanding how these attempts support the development of novel SISSY technology, this paper presents a definition of the term. In addition, it discusses the fundamental challenges stemming from the increasingly interconnected character of large-scale distributed and adaptive systems typically referred to as "Interwoven Systems", with these systems describing the basic motivation for SISSY research.

Quantifying the Influences on Probabilistic Wind Power Forecasts. Schreiber, Jens; Sick, Bernhard. In International Conference on Power and Renewable Energy (ICPRE), bll 1–6. 2018.
- [ Abstract ]
- [ BibTeX ]
- [ EndNote ]
In recent years, probabilistic forecasts techniques were proposed in research as well as in applications to integrate volatile renewable energy resources into the electrical grid. These techniques allow decision makers to take the uncertainty of the prediction into account and, therefore, to devise optimal decisions, e.g., related to costs and risks in the electrical grid. However, it was yet not studied how the input, such as numerical weather predictions, affects the model output of forecasting models in detail. Therefore, we examine the potential influences with techniques from the field of sensitivity analysis on three different black-box models to obtain insights into differences and similarities of these probabilistic models. The analysis shows a considerable number of potential influences in those models depending on, e.g., the predicted probability and the type of model. These effects motivate the need to take various influences into account when models are tested, analyzed, or compared. Nevertheless, results of the sensitivity analysis will allow us to select a model with advantages in the practical application.

Comparing the Effects of Disturbances in Self-adaptive Systems - A Generalised Approach for the Quantification of Robustness.

Self-adaptation and self-organisation (SASO) are increasingly used in information and communication technology to master complexity and keep the administrative effort at an acceptable level. However, using SASO mechanisms is not an end in itself -- the primary goal is typically to allow for a higher autonomy of systems in order to react appropriately to disturbances and dynamics in the environmental conditions. We refer to this goal as achieving "robustness". During design-time, engineers have different possibilities to develop SASO mechanisms for an underlying control problem. When deciding which path to follow, an analysis of the inherent robustness of possible solutions is necessary. In this article, we present a novel quantification method for robustness that provides the basis to compare different control strategies in similar conditions.

Power system analyses increasingly use annual time series for temporal and spatial assessment of operational and also planning aspects. These analyses are often limited due to the computational time of the large amount of load flow calculation. By introducing algorithms which are capable of generating shorter and representative time series of measured load or power generation time series, the calculation time for load flow calculations can be reduced. We present a method which is capable of extracting features from the time series and use those features to create a representative time series. Furthermore, we show that our method is capable of maintaining the most important statistical features of the original time series by applying a Fisher-Pitman Permutation test.
