Vehicle sharing systems are becoming increasingly popular. The effectiveness of such systems depends, among other factors, on different strategic and operational management decisions and policies, like the dimension of the fleet or the…
Feedback particle filter (FPF) is an algorithm to numerically approximate the solution of the nonlinear filtering problem in continuous time. The algorithm implements a feedback control law for a system of particles such that the empirical…
The key to speeding up applications is often understanding where the elapsed time is spent, and why. This document reviews in depth the full array of performance analysis tools and techniques available on Linux for this task, from the…
We consider belief propagation (BP) as an efficient and scalable tool for state estimation and optimization problems in supply networks such as power grids. BP algorithms make use of factor graph representations, whose assignment to the…
Soft real-time applications require timely delivery of messages conforming to the soft real-time constraints. Satisfying such requirements is a complex task both due to the volatile nature of distributed environments, as well as due to…
Background: Performance bugs can lead to severe issues regarding computation efficiency, power consumption, and user experience. Locating these bugs is a difficult task because developers have to judge for every costly operation whether…
We developed a distributed data mining system to elaborate a decision concerning the cause of urban traffic congestion via emerging connected vehicle (CV) technology. We observe this complex phenomena through the interactions between…
Public transit systems in urban areas usually require large state subsidies, primarily due to high fare evasion rates. In this paper, we study new models for optimizing fare inspection strategies in transit networks based on bilevel…
Fuel optimization of diesel and petrol vehicles within industrial fleets is critical for mitigating costs and reducing emissions. This objective is achievable by acting on fuel-related factors, such as the driving behaviour style. In this…
Benchmarking is a common practice in software engineering to assess the qualities and performance of software variants, coming from multiple competing systems or from configurations of the same system. Benchmarks are used notably to compare…
Financial sustainability is vital for open-source software, yet systematic research on funding remains limited. GitHub Sponsors, launched in 2019 as a direct developer-to-developer funding model, lacks bulk API access, hindering large-scale…
Symbolic regression that aims to detect underlying data-driven models has become increasingly important for industrial data analysis. For most existing algorithms such as genetic programming (GP), the convergence speed might be too slow for…
Large scale graph processing using distributed computing frameworks is becoming pervasive and efficient in the industry. In this work, we present a highly scalable and configurable distributed algorithm for building connected components,…
Understanding and keeping the customer happy is a central tenet of requirements engineering. Strategies to gather, analyze, and negotiate requirements are complemented by efforts to manage customer input after products have been deployed.…
Consider a vertex-weighted graph $G$ with a source $s$ and a target $t$. Tracking Paths requires finding a minimum weight set of vertices (trackers) such that the sequence of trackers in each path from $s$ to $t$ is unique. In this work, we…
Detecting performance issues due to suboptimal code during the development process can be a daunting task, especially when it comes to localizing them after noticing performance degradation after deployment. Static analysis has the…
Latent factor models have achieved great success in personalized recommendations, but they are also notoriously difficult to explain. In this work, we integrate regression trees to guide the learning of latent factor models for…
Learning-based control approaches have shown great promise in performing complex tasks directly from high-dimensional perception data for real robotic systems. Nonetheless, the learned controllers can behave unexpectedly if the trajectories…
This paper introduces the Fair Fairness Benchmark (\textsf{FFB}), a benchmarking framework for in-processing group fairness methods. Ensuring fairness in machine learning is important for ethical compliance. However, there exist challenges…
The two most popular types of graphical model are directed models (Bayesian networks) and undirected models (Markov random fields, or MRFs). Directed and undirected models offer complementary properties in model construction, expressing…
