In search auctions, when the total budget for an advertising campaign during a certain promotion period is determined, advertisers have to distribute their budgets over a series of sequential temporal slots (e.g., daily budgets). However, due to the uncertainties existed in search markets, advertisers can only obtain the value range of budget demand for each temporal slot based on promotion logs. In this paper, we present a stochastic model for budget distribution over a series of sequential temporal slots during a promotion period, considering the budget demand for each temporal slot as a random variable. We study some properties and present feasible solution algorithms for our budget model, in the case that the budget demand is characterized either by uniform random variable or normal random variable. We also conduct some experiments to evaluate our model with the empirical data. Experimental results show that the budget demand is more likely to be normal distributed than uniform distributed, and our strategy can outperform the baseline strategy commonly used in practice.

Convolutional neural network (CNN) has achieved great success in many vision tasks. A key to this success is its ability to powerful automatically learns both high-level and low-level features. In general, low-level features have a small size of receptive fields and appear multiple times in different locations of objects, while high-level semantic features have a relatively large size of receptive fields and only appear once in a specific location of objects. However, traditional CNN treats these two kinds of features in the same manner, i.e., learning them by the convolution operation, which can be approximately considered as cumulating the probabilities that a feature appears in different locations. This strategy is reasonable for low-level features but not for high-level semantic ones, especially in the case of pedestrian detection, where a local feature can be shared by different locations but a semantic part, e.g., a head, only appears once for a human. To jointly model the spatial structure and appearance of high-level semantic features, we propose a new module to learn spatially weighted max pooling in CNN. The proposed method is evaluated on several pedestrian detection databases and the experimental results show that it achieves much better performance than traditional CNN.
In this paper synchronization of both the orientation and velocity for a group of unicycle robots is studied. It is assumed that a robot can only detect and obtain information from those robots that lie in the proximi...

This paper considers the problem of global decentralized stabilization for a class of large-scale feedforward nonlinear systems. First, by using generalized homogeneous systems theory, a local linear decentralized control law is recursively constructed. Second, a series of nested saturation functions are integrated with the proposed local linear control law to render the whole closed-loop large-scale system global asymptotical stability. Due to the flexibility of the generalized homogeneous systems theory, the proposed approach not only weakens the existing restrictions imposed on the interconnected nonlinearities, but also can be applied to more general classes of large-scale feedforward nonlinear systems. Numerical example shows that the effectiveness of the proposed control scheme.

Real-time travel time is one of the important value for traffic management and traffic control. With the help of Internet of Vehicles (IOV), the dynamic traffic information can be collected and distributed more correctly. In this paper, we propose a method to predict the remaining travel time (RTT) for a vehicle on the freeway in the IOV environment. The Markov chains are adopted to predict a vehicle's remaining travel time in real-time. The experimental results prove that the mean absolute percent error (MAPE) is less than 10%.
