Analyzing social media with crowdsourcing in Crowd4SDG
Carlo Bono, Mehmet Oğuz Mülâyim, Cinzia Cappiello +6
Social media have the potential to provide timely information about emergency situations and sudden events. However, finding relevant information among millions of posts being post…
A first approach to closeness distributions
Jesus Cerquides
Probabilistic graphical models allow us to encode a large probability distribution as a composition of smaller ones. It is oftentimes the case that we are interested in incorporati…
Parametrization invariant interpretation of priors and posteriors
Jesus Cerquides
In this paper we leverage on probability over Riemannian manifolds to rethink the interpretation of priors and posteriors in Bayesian inference. The main mindshift is to move away…
Predicting Requests in Large-Scale Online P2P Ridesharing
Filippo Bistaffa, Juan A. Rodríguez-Aguilar, Jesús Cerquides
Peer-to-peer ridesharing (P2P-RS) enables people to arrange one-time rides with their own private cars, without the involvement of professional drivers. It is a prominent collectiv…
Dual Stochastic Natural Gradient Descent and convergence of interior half-space gradient approximations
Borja Sánchez-López, Jesus Cerquides
The multinomial logistic regression (MLR) model is widely used in statistics and machine learning. Stochastic gradient descent (SGD) is the most common approach for determining the…
Decentralized dynamic task allocation for UAVs with limited communication range
Marc Pujol-Gonzalez, Jesus Cerquides, Pedro Meseguer +2
We present the Limited-range Online Routing Problem (LORP), which involves a team of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) with limited communication range that must autonomously coordin…
Improving Max-Sum through Decimation to Solve Loopy Distributed Constraint Optimization Problems
Jesús Cerquides, Rémi Emonet, Gauthier Picard +1
In the context of solving large distributed constraint optimization problems (DCOP), belief-propagation and approximate inference algorithms are candidates of choice. However, in g…
Algorithms for Graph-Constrained Coalition Formation in the Real World
Filippo Bistaffa, Alessandro Farinelli, Jesús Cerquides +2
Coalition formation typically involves the coming together of multiple, heterogeneous, agents to achieve both their individual and collective goals. In this paper, we focus on a sp…
Sufficient and necessary conditions for Dynamic Programming in Valuation-Based Systems
Jordi Roca-Lacostena, Jesus Cerquides, Marc Pouly
Valuation algebras abstract a large number of formalisms for automated reasoning and enable the definition of generic inference procedures. Many of these formalisms provide some no…
Even more generic solution construction in Valuation-Based Systems
Jordi Roca-Lacostena, Jesus Cerquides
Valuation algebras abstract a large number of formalisms for automated reasoning and enable the definition of generic inference procedures. Many of these formalisms provide some no…
Bayesian Conditional Gaussian Network Classifiers with Applications to Mass Spectra Classification
Victor Bellon, Jesus Cerquides, Ivo Grosse
Classifiers based on probabilistic graphical models are very effective. In continuous domains, maximum likelihood is usually used to assess the predictions of those classifiers. Wh…
Sensory Anticipation of Optical Flow in Mobile Robotics
Arturo Ribes, Jesús Cerquides, Yiannis Demiris +1
In order to anticipate dangerous events, like a collision, an agent needs to make long-term predictions. However, those are challenging due to uncertainties in internal and externa…
