University Library Services - Publication lists & self-archiving options
Abstract
The University Library Service now offers two new services centered around the better visibility of your research publications. During this brief, informal presentation Sonja Härkönen will provide an overview of the services available and of how they can be accessed. The focus will be on the display of publication lists on the new website (using a plugin for DjangoCMS) and on the self-archiving options available (i.e. the option to make the full text of your publications freely available online).

Generative–Temporal based Model for Affect Estimations
Abstract
The temporal information, which describes the sequential dependency across the frames naturally exists in the video-based datasets. In several machine vision tasks, including facial based analysis, these inherent features have been shown to be beneficial to model training in improving their accuracy. In affective computing, however, deep investigations of these methods are yet to be undergone given its unique challenges. One instance is that it demands more sophisticated understanding of complex interactions between humans besides of the accuracy of the model. To this end, the current task will be first to analyse of the impact of temporal modeling through generative modeling in current affect estimations problem. One such approach is to use deep auto-encoder based structure to model inherent features from each modality. Then, recurrent based deep learning models, such as RNN and LSTMs, can be used to capture relevant temporal information and final estimations through curriculum learning. Further, utilizing these findings, necessary machine learning-based techniques will be integrated to achieve the main aim of state of the art accuracy on the available benchmarks.

Contribution Analysis for Exterior Noise Development
Abstract
The exterior noise is one of the key components in the automotive NVH development process. While strict regulations have to be met, the acoustic character is of major importance for the OEMs. The simulated pass-by is a widely accepted alternative to the real test track, as it is more convenient and independent from environmental conditions. Modifications and additional measurement tasks can be added easily in order to minimize possible sources of disturbances. With the so-called contribution analysis, a ranking of the most common sources, such as intake, engine, exhaust, and tires can be easily performed in addition to the standard measurements. This indicates at which positions modifications might make sense. The process to determine these contributions is rather tiresome, as all possible sources and transfer paths have to be measured with microphones and accelerometers, in order to decompose the response at the AA line. Hence, a machine learning based approach is desired, In order to guide engineers to critical sound and vibration sources way faster. The task is now to train a system, which is able to decompose the exterior noise into tires, engine, exhaust, gear box and powertrain. Further, an easy transfer to comfort noise measurements within the vehicle is aimed at.
