Ítem Generacion de datos fotométricos artificiales de estrellas variables con Boostrapped GAN(Universidad Andrés Bello, 2022) Vergara Sepúlveda, Álvaro; Peralta, Billy; Nicolis, Orietta; Facultad de IngenieríaThe analysis of astronomical data has made it possible to obtain multiple advances in the understanding of the universe. In astronomy, for example, light curves allow the stars to be characterized, allowing them to be known using the available telescopes. stars are naturally unbalanced by classes which makes automatic recognition difficult as the classification of types of stars. Currently, statistical models have been proposed for the generation of artificial light curves, however these models require assumptions that are not necessarily met in the real data since these models are based on linear relationships that they may not fit non-linear patterns in the actual data. In this work, the generation of artificial data using adversarial generative neural networks is proposed. (GAN) using recurrent networks and considering the generation of time series using bootstrapped sampling of time intervals. The results obtained show that the model is capable of generating visually and quantitatively more realistic photometric data than the obtained by state-of-the-art methods based on parametric statistics. It is concluded that the combination of GAN networks and the bootstrapping method is capable of representing nonlinear and irregular patterns present in real light curves. As future work, we plan to apply attention-based networks to select relevant sections in the generation of artificial light curves using generated and synthetic photometric data.Ítem Mixture of experts with entropic regularization for data classification(MDPI AG, 2019-02) Peralta, Billy; Saavedra, Ariel; Caro, Luis; Soto, AlvaroToday, there is growing interest in the automatic classification of a variety of tasks, such as weather forecasting, product recommendations, intrusion detection, and people recognition. "Mixture-of-experts" is a well-known classification technique; it is a probabilistic model consisting of local expert classifiers weighted by a gate network that is typically based on softmax functions, combined with learnable complex patterns in data. In this scheme, one data point is influenced by only one expert; as a result, the training process can be misguided in real datasets for which complex data need to be explained by multiple experts. In this work, we propose a variant of the regular mixture-of-experts model. In the proposed model, the cost classification is penalized by the Shannon entropy of the gating network in order to avoid a "winner-takes-all" output for the gating network. Experiments show the advantage of our approach using several real datasets, with improvements in mean accuracy of 3-6% in some datasets. In future work, we plan to embed feature selection into this model. © 2019 by the authors.Ítem Outlier Vehicle Trajectory Detection Using Deep Autoencoders in Santiago, Chile(MDPI, 2023-02) Peralta, Billy; Soria, Richard; Nicolis, Orietta; Ruggeri, Fabrizio; Caro, Luis; Bronfman, AndrésIn the last decade, a large amount of data from vehicle location sensors has been generated due to the massification of GPS systems to track them. This is because these sensors usually include multiple variables such as position, speed, angular position of the vehicle, etc., and, furthermore, they are also usually recorded in very short time intervals. On the other hand, routes are often generated so that they do not correspond to reality, due to artifacts such as buildings, bridges, or sensor failures and where, due to the large amount of data, visual analysis of human expert is unable to detect genuinely anomalous routes. The presence of such abnormalities can lead to faulty sensors being detected which may allow sensor replacement to reliably track the vehicle. However, given the reliability of the available sensors, there are very few examples of such anomalies, which can make it difficult to apply supervised learning techniques. In this work we propose the use of unsupervised deep neural network models based on stacked autoencoders to detect anomalous routes in vehicles within Santiago de Chile. The results show that the proposed model is capable of effectively detecting anomalous paths in real data considering validation given by an expert user, reaching a performance of 82.1% on average. As future work, we propose to incorporate the use of Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) and attention-based networks in order to improve the detection of anomalous trajectories. © 2023 by the authors.Ítem Space-Time Prediction of PM2.5 Concentrations in Santiago de Chile Using LSTM Networks(MDPI, 2022-11) Peralta, Billy; Sepúlveda, Tomás; Nicolis, Orietta; Caro, LuisCurrently, air pollution is a highly important issue in society due to its harmful effects on human health and the environment. The prediction of pollutant concentrations in Santiago de Chile is typically based on statistical methods or classical neural networks. Existing methods often assume that historical values are known at a fixed geographic point, such that air pollution can be predicted at a future hour using time series analysis. However, these methods are inapplicable when it is necessary to know the pollutant concentrations at every point of the space. This work proposes a method that addresses the space-time prediction of PM (Formula presented.) concentration in Santiago de Chile at any spatial points through the use of the LSTM recurrent network model. In particular, by considering historical values of air pollutants (PM (Formula presented.), PM (Formula presented.) and nitrogen dioxide) and meteorological variables (temperature, wind speed and direction and relative humidity), measured at fixed monitoring stations, the proposed model can predict PM (Formula presented.) concentrations for the next 24 h in a new location where measurements are not available. This work describes the experiments carried out, with particular emphasis on the pre-processing step, which constitutes an important factor for obtaining relatively good results. The proposed multilayer LSTM model obtained (Formula presented.) values equal to 0.74 and 0.38 in seven stations when considering forecasts of 1 and 24 h, respectively. As future work, we plan to include more input variables in the proposed model and to use attention-based networks. © 2022 by the authors.Ítem Space‑time clustering of seismic events in Chile using ST‑DBSCAN‑EV algorithm(Springer, 2024) Nicolis, Orietta; Delgado, Luis; Peralta, Billy; Díaz, Mailiu; Chiodi, MarcelloChile is one of the most seismic countries in the world especially due to the subduction of the Nazca plate under the South America plate along the Chilean cost. Normally, the spatial distribution of seismic events tends to form spatial and temporal clusters around the main event including both precursor and aftershock events. However, it is very difficult to identify whether an event is a precursor, a main event or an aftershock. In the literature, only some large earthquakes are well described but it does not exist an automatic method to classify them. In this work, we propose a new density based clustering method, called ST-DBSCAN-EV (Space-time DBSCAN with Epsilon Variable), which allows the Epsilon parameter (the radius) to vary depending on the density of the points. The results of the ST-DBSCAN-EV are validated on three important earthquakes with magnitude greater than 8.0 Mw occurred in Chile in the last 20 years, by carrying out a series of experiments considering different combinations of parameters. A comparison with some traditional clustering techniques such as the DBSCAN, ST-DBSCAN, and the K-means has been implemented for assessing the performance of the proposed method. Almost in all cases ST-DBSCAN-EV outperformed traditional ones by providing an F1-Score metric higher than 0.8. Finally, the results of classification are compared with a declustering method. © The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer Science+Business Media, LLC, part of Springer Nature 2024.
