Abstract:
L'inférence d’un système, par la reconstruction de la structure à partir de l’analyse de son comportement, est reconnue comme un problème critique. Dans la théorie des systèmes, la structure et le comportement se situent aux extrémités de la hiérarchie qui définit la connaissance du système. L'inférence d’un système peut être également considérée comme l’escalade de la hiérarchie depuis la connaissance de bas niveau vers la connaissance de plus haut niveau. Ceci n'est possible que sous des conditions maitrisées et justifiées. Dans cette thèse, une nouvelle méthode d'inférence de système est pr

Abstract:
In this master thesis we present an algorithm for distributed event-triggered pinning control of a network of nonlinear oscillators. In order to extend the concepts of connected, switching connected and slow switching topology to a pinning control scenario, we introduce the denitions of pinned, switching pinned and frequently pinned topology respectively. For each of these three topologies we try to identify the conditions under which the network achieves exponential convergence of the error norm, find a lower bound for the rate of convergence and prove that the trigger sequences do not exhibi

This thesis investigates the potential of computer graphics in providing for a graphics driven specification system that gives sufficient structure and content to form the simulation model itself. The nature of discrete event simulation modelling, the diagramming method of activity cycle diagrams which underpinned this research, the three phase simulation model structure, and the trend of visual simulation modelling are discussed as the basis for the research. Some current existing simulation languages and packages are reviewed, which gives insight into the essential features of an ideal compu

The Event Refinement Structures (ERS) approach augments the Event-B formal method with hierarchical diagrams, providing explicit support for control fow and refinement relationships. ERS was originally designed to decompose the atomicity of the events in Event-B and later enriched with control flow combinators. Combining graphical workflow approaches with formal methods has been a subject of interest in both industry and academia, resulting in a diversity of approaches.

Abstract:
Automated event extraction from free text remains an open problem, particularly when the goal is to identify all relevant events. Manual extraction is currently the only alternative for comprehensive and reliable extraction. Therefore, it is required to have a system that can comprehensively extract events reported in news articles (high recall) and is also scalable enough to handle a large number of articles. In this dissertation, we explore various methods to develop an event extraction system that can mitigate these challenges. We primarily investigate three major problems related to event

Abstract:
The present thesis presents a causal approach to transitivity and proposes a model of transitivity based on the view that a single event is a single ‘causal impact’, which consists of a single causation and a single effect. It defines semantic intransitivity as events where the effect is borne by and expressed through the actor and semantic transitivity as events where the effect is borne by and expressed through the patient. It finds evidence for this definition in the phenomenon of ‘selective specification’ of action or result by verbs with actor and patient. Furthermore, it proposes that th

Abstract:
Research findings relating to anomalous equity returns should ideally be repeatable by others. Usually, only a small subset of the decisions made in a particular backtest workflow are released, which limits reproducability. Data collection and cleaning, parameter setting, algorithm development and report generation are often done with manual point-and-click tools which do not log user actions. This problem is compounded by the fact that the trial-and-error approach of researchers increases the probability of backtest overfitting.

Abstract:
The objective of this research is to increase the robustness of discrete-event simulation (DES) when input uncertainties associated models and parameters are present. Input uncertainties in simulation have different sources, including lack of data, conflicting information and beliefs, lack of introspection, measurement errors, and lack of information about dependency. A reliable solution is obtained from a simulation mechanism that accounts for these uncertainty components in simulation.
