This paper describes our attempt to make the Hidden Markov Model (HMM) score following system developed at Ircam sensible to past experiences in order to obtain better audio to score real-time alignment for musical applications. A new observation modeling based on Gaussian Mixture Models is developed which is trainable using a learning algorithm we would call automatic discriminative training. ...

During co-manipulation involving humans and robots, it is necessary to base robot controllers on human behaviors to achieve comfortable and coordinated movement between the human-robot dyad. In this paper, we describe an experiment between human-human dyads and we record the force and motion data as the leader-follower dyads moved in translation and rotation. The force/motion data was then anal...

Optimization and Numerical Analysis for Partial Differential Equations with Nonsmooth Structures Invisible Control of Self-Organizing Agents Leaving Unknown Environments Mattia Bongini (TUM), Massimo Fornasier (TUM) Problem and Goals • We are concerned with the multiscale modeling, control and simulation of self-organizing agents leaving an unknown area. • In [1] we explore the possibility of s...

Spontaneous bursting activity in cultured neuronal networks is initiated by leader neurons, which constitute a small subset of first-to-fire neurons forming a sub-network that recruits follower neurons into the burst. While the existence and stability of leader neurons is well established, the influence of stimulation on the leader-follower dynamics is not sufficiently understood. By combining ...

We propose that a leadership identity is coconstructed in organizations when individuals claim and grant leader and follower identities in their social interactions. Through this claiming-granting process, individuals internalize an identity as leader or follower, and those identities become relationally recognized through reciprocal role adoption and collectively endorsed within the organizati...

The performance of CMOS image sensors in a deep sub-micron CMOS process is limited by two factors: 1) The increasing pixel temporal noise floor dominated by the 1/f noise from the pixel source follower (SF) and 2) The decreasing pixel analog swing due to the supply voltage scaling. In this paper, we present the possibility of using a buried channel n-MOST as the in-pixel source follower to redu...

In this paper we derive a set of constraints that are sufficient to guarantee maintained connectivity in a leader-follower multiagent network with proximity based communication topology. In the scenario we consider, only the leaders are aware of the global mission, which is to converge to a known destination point. Thus, the followers need to stay in contact with the group of leaders in order t...

The problem of computing the strategy to commit to has been widely investigated in the scientific literature for the case where a single follower is present. In the multi-follower setting though, results are only sporadic. In this paper, we address the multi-follower case for normal-form games, assuming that, after observing the leader’s commitment, the followers play pure strategies and reach ...

This paper presents an adaptive guidance and control law algorithm for implementation on a pair of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) in a 6 DOF leader-follower formation flight simulation. The objective of the simulation study is to prepare for a flight test involving a pair of UAVs in formation flight where the follower aircraft will be equipped with an onboard camera to estimate the relative di...

Previous work on trust has focused on employee trust in management. However, issues of how leaders develop trust in their follower in leader-member exchange (LMX) are under-explored. Based on theories of leader-member exchange, attribution and industrial convergence, this study investigates how the work values of leaders influence the development of their trust in followers and how this is mode...
