This paper presents a comparative study between statistical and machine learning methods in forecasting Bitcoin's closing prices. Thirteen forecasting methods namely average, naive, drift, auto-regressive integrated moving-average, simple exponential smoothing (SES), Holt, and damped exponential smoothing, the average of SES, Holt and damped methods, exponential smoothing (ETS), bagged ETS, Theta, multilayer perceptron, and extreme learning machines (ELM) were used to forecast the closing prices for the next 14 days. The findings of this study are three folds. First, there are seven forecasting methods outperformed the naive method namely MLP, ELM, damped exponential smoothing, simple exponential smoothing, Theta, ETS, and ARIMA. Second, MLP and ELM showed better forecasting accuracy on both validation and out-of-sample data among the forecasting methods used in this study. Third, the size of the training data is essential factor that should be considered when training forecasting methods. © 2020 IEEE.

This paper introduces the "SurgT: Surgical Tracking" challenge which was organised in conjunction with the 25th International Conference on Medical Image Computing and computer-Assisted Intervention (MICCAI 2022). There were two purposes for the creation of this challenge: (1) the establishment of the first standardised benchmark for the research community to assess soft-tissue trackers;and (2) to encourage the development of unsupervised deep learning methods, given the lack of annotated data in surgery. A dataset of 157 stereo endoscopic videos from 20 clinical cases, along with stereo camera calibration parameters, have been provided. Participants were assigned the task of developing algorithms to track the movement of soft tissues, represented by bounding boxes, in stereo endoscopic videos. At the end of the challenge, the developed methods were assessed on a previously hidden test subset. This assessment uses benchmarking metrics that were purposely developed for this challenge, to verify the efficacy of unsupervised deep learning algorithms in tracking soft-tissue. The metric used for ranking the methods was the Expected Average Overlap (EAO) score, which measures the average overlap between a tracker’s and the ground truth bounding boxes. Coming first in the challenge was the deep learning submission by ICVS-2Ai with a superior EAO score of 0.617. This method employs ARFlow to estimate unsupervised dense optical flow from cropped images, using photometric and regularization losses. Second, Jmees with an EAO of 0.583, uses deep learning for surgical tool segmentation on top of a non-deep learning baseline method: CSRT. CSRT by itself scores a similar EAO of 0.563. The results from this challenge show that currently, non-deep learning methods are still competitive. The dataset and benchmarking tool created for this challenge have been made publicly available at https://***/. This challenge is expected to contribute to the development of au

Recent advances in computer vision and Deep Learning have enabled astonishing results in a variety of fields and applications. Motivated by this success, the SkyCam Dataset aims to enable image-based Deep Learning solutions for short-term, precise prediction of solar radiation on a local level. For the span of a year, three different cameras in three topographically different locations in Switzerland are acquiring images of the sky every 10 seconds. Thirteen high resolution images with different exposure times are captured and used to create an additional HDR image. The images are paired with highly precise irradiance values gathered from a high-accuracy pyranometer. © 2021, CC BY-NC-SA.

Subsea residential autonomous systems will reduce the cost and CO 2 footprint of future subsea operations. This concept includes subsea docking stations (SDS) and Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs). To ensure the AUVs are capable of interfacing with the SDS, a driftless and accurate close-range navigation schema is required. Thus, this paper proposes a visual method for navigation utilizing a defined set of ArUco markers printed on the SDS. To increase the accuracy of the system, the set of ArUco markers is defined to a common frame of reference, introducing more points in the camera frame for a more accurate solution to the Perspective-n-Point problem. This makes the system robust against partial occlusion. The paper has also implemented a modified Line of Sight (LOS) schema for the guidance of the vehicle. The results show stable pose estimates at up to 6 meters above the SDS, and successful autonomous docking of an underwater vehicle. The navigational estimates provided by the system get more stable when the vehicle is closer to the SDS.

Autonomous motion planning is challenging in multi-obstacle environments due to nonconvex collision avoidance constraints. Directly applying numerical solvers to these nonconvex formulations fails to exploit the constraint structures, resulting in excessive computation time. In this paper, we present an accelerated collision-free motion planner, namely regularized dual alternating direction method of multipliers (RDADMM or RDA for short), for the model predictive control (MPC) based motion planning problem. The proposed RDA addresses nonconvex motion planning via solving a smooth biconvex reformulation via duality and allows the collision avoidance constraints to be computed in parallel for each obstacle to reduce computation time significantly. We validate the performance of the RDA planner through path-tracking experiments with car-like robots in both simulation and real-world settings. Experimental results show that the proposed method generates smooth collision-free trajectories with less computation time compared with other benchmarks and performs robustly in cluttered environments.

In this paper, we present the first large-scale dataset for semantic Segmentation of Underwater IMagery (SUIM). It contains over 1500 images with pixel annotations for eight object categories: fish (vertebrates), reefs (invertebrates), aquatic plants, wrecks/ruins, human divers, robots, and sea-floor. The images are rigorously collected during oceanic explorations and human-robot collaborative experiments, and annotated by human participants. We also present a comprehensive benchmark evaluation of several state-of-the-art semantic segmentation approaches based on standard performance metrics. Additionally, we present SUIM-Net, a fully-convolutional deep residual model that balances the tradeoff between performance and computational efficiency. It offers competitive performance while ensuring fast end-to-end inference, which is essential for its use in the autonomy pipeline by visually-guided underwater robots. In particular, we demonstrate its usability benefits for visual servoing, saliency prediction, and detailed scene understanding. With a variety of use cases, the proposed model and benchmark dataset open up promising opportunities for future research on underwater robot vision. Copyright © 2020, The Authors.

Autonomous navigation is a key skill for assistive and service robots. To be successful, robots have to minimise the disruption caused to humans while moving. This implies predicting how people will move and complying with social conventions. Avoiding disrupting personal spaces, people's paths and interactions are examples of these social conventions. This paper leverages Graph Neural Networks to model robot disruption considering the movement of the humans and the robot so that the model built can be used by path planning algorithms. Along with the model, this paper presents an evolution of the dataset SocNav1 [25] which considers the movement of the robot and the humans, and an updated scenario-to-graph transformation which is tested using different Graph Neural Network blocks. The model trained achieves close-to-human performance in the dataset. In addition to its accuracy, the main advantage of the approach is its scalability in terms of the number of social factors that can be considered in comparison with handcrafted models. The dataset and the model are available in a public repository. © 2021, CC BY-SA.

It is widely accepted that in the future, robots will cooperate with humans in everyday tasks. Robots interacting with humans will require social awareness when performing their tasks which will require navigation. While navigating, robots should aim to avoid distressing people in order to maximize their chance of social acceptance. For instance, avoiding getting too close to people or disrupting interactions. Most research approaches these problems by planning socially accepted paths, however, in everyday situations, there are many examples where a simple path planner cannot solve all of the predicted robots’ navigation problems. For instance, requesting permission to interrupt a conversation if an alternative path cannot be determined requires deliberative skills. This article presents the Social Navigation framework for Autonomous robots in Populated Environments (SNAPE), where different software agents are integrated within a robotics cognitive architecture. SNAPE addresses action planning aimed at social-awareness navigation in realistic situations: it plans socially accepted paths and conversations to negotiate its trajectory to reach targets. In this article, the framework is evaluated in different use-cases where the robot, during its navigation, has to interact with different people in order to reach its goal. The results show that participants report that the robot’s behavior was realistic and human-like.

In this paper, we introduce and tackle the simultaneous enhancement and super-resolution (SESR) problem for underwater robot vision and provide an efficient solution for near real-time applications. We present Deep SESR, a residual-in-residual network-based generative model that can learn to restore perceptual image qualities at 2×, 3×, or 4× higher spatial resolution. We supervise its training by formulating a multi-modal objective function that addresses the chrominance-specific underwater color degradation, lack of image sharpness, and loss in high-level feature representation. It is also supervised to learn salient foreground regions in the image, which in turn guides the network to learn global contrast enhancement. We design an end-to-end training pipeline to jointly learn the saliency prediction and SESR on a shared hierarchical feature space for fast inference. Moreover, we present UFO-120, the first dataset to facilitate large-scale SESR learning;it contains over 1500 training samples and a benchmark test set of 120 samples. By thorough experimental evaluation on the UFO-120 and other standard datasets, we demonstrate that Deep SESR outperforms the existing solutions for underwater image enhancement and super-resolution. We also validate its generalization performance on several test cases that include underwater images with diverse spectral and spatial degradation levels, and also terrestrial images with unseen natural objects. Lastly, we analyze its computational feasibility for single-board deployments and demonstrate its operational benefits for visuallyguided underwater robots.
