▼ The concept of simulation-based engineering has been embraced by virtually every research and industry sector (Sinha, Liang et al. 2001; Mocko and Fenves 2003). Engineering and science communities have become increasingly aware that computer simulation is an indispensable tool for resolving a multitude of scientific and technological problems. It is clearly desirable to gain a reliable perspective on the behaviour of a system early in the design stage, long before building costly prototypes (Chul and Ro 2002; Letherwood, Gunter et al. 2004; Makarand Datar 2007; Ersal, Fathy et al. 2008; Mueller, Ferris et al. 2009). Simulation tools have become a critical part of the automotive industry due to their ability to reduce the time and money spent in the development process. Terrain is the principle source of vertical excitation to the vehicle and must be accurately represented in order to correctly predict the vehicle response in simulation. In this dissertation, non-deformable terrain surfaces are defined as a sequence of vectors, where each vector comprises terrain heights at locations oriented perpendicular to the direction of travel. The evolution and implications of terrain surface measurement techniques and existing methods for correcting INS drift are reviewed as a framework for a new compensation method for INS drift in terrain surface measurements. Each measurement is considered a combination of the true surface and the error surface, defined on a Hilbert vector space, in which the error is decomposed into drift (global error) and noise (local error). It is also desirable to develop a compact, path-specific, terrain surface representation that exploits the inherent anisotropicity in terrain over which vehicles traverse. In order to obtain this, a set of analytic basis vectors is formed from Gegenbauer polynomials, parameterized to approximate the empirical basis vectors of the true terrain surface. It is also desirable to evaluate vehicle models and tire models over a wide range of terrain types, but it is computationally impractical to store long distances of every terrain surface variation. This dissertation examines the terrain surface, rather than the terrain profile, to maximize the information available to the tire model (i.e. wheel path data). A method to decompose the terrain surface as a combination of deterministic and stochastic components is also developed. Advisors/Committee Members: Ferris, John B.

ENGLISH ABSTRACT: The main topics of study in this thesis are the Principal Component Analysis (PCA) and Canonical Variate Analysis (CVA) biplots, with the primary focus falling on the quality measures associated with these biplots. A detailed study of different routes along which PCA and CVA can be derived precedes the study of the PCA biplot and CVA biplot respectively. Different perspectives on PCA and CVA highlight different aspects of the theory that underlie PCA and CVA biplots respectively and so contribute to a more solid understanding of these biplots and their interpretation. PCA is studied via the routes followed by Pearson (1901) and Hotelling (1933). CVA is studied from the perspectives of Linear Discriminant Analysis, Canonical Correlation Analysis as well as a two-step approach introduced in Gower et al. (2011). The close relationship between CVA and Multivariate Analysis of Variance (MANOVA) also receives some attention. An explanation of the construction of the PCA biplot is provided subsequent to the study of PCA. Thereafter follows an in depth investigation of quality measures of the PCA biplot as well as the relationships between these quality measures. Specific attention is given to the effect of standardisation on the PCA biplot and its quality measures. Following the study of CVA is an explanation of the construction of the weighted CVA biplot as well as two different unweighted CVA biplots based on the two-step approach to CVA. Specific attention is given to the effect of accounting for group sizes in the construction of the CVA biplot on the representation of the group structure underlying a data set. It was found that larger groups tend to be better separated from other groups in the weighted CVA biplot than in the corresponding unweighted CVA biplots. Similarly it was found that smaller groups tend to be separated to a greater extent from other groups in the unweighted CVA biplots than in the corresponding weighted CVA biplot. A detailed investigation of previously defined quality measures of the CVA biplot follows the study of the CVA biplot. It was found that the accuracy with which the group centroids of larger groups are approximated in the weighted CVA biplot is usually higher than that in the corresponding unweighted CVA biplots. Three new quality measures that assess that accuracy of the Pythagorean distances in the CVA biplot are also defined. These quality measures assess the accuracy of the Pythagorean distances between the group centroids, the Pythagorean distances between the individual samples and the Pythagorean distances between the individual samples and group centroids in the CVA biplot respectively.

▼ The overall objective of this thesis is to develop methods for fault detection and diagnosis for ground source heat pumps that can be used by servicemen to assist them to accurately detect and diagnose faults during the operation of the heat pump. The aim of this thesis is focused to develop two fault detection and diagnosis methods, sensitivity ratio and data-driven using principle component analysis. For the sensitivity ratio method model, two semi-empirical models for heat pump unit were built to simulate fault free and faulty conditions in the heat pump. Both models have been cross-validated by fault free experimental data. The fault free model is used as a reference. Then, fault trend analysis is performed in order to select a pair of uniquely sensitive and insensitive parameters to calculate the sensitivity ratio for each fault. When a sensitivity ratio value for a certain fault drops below a predefined value, that fault is diagnosed and an alarm message with that fault appears. The simulated faults data is used to test the model and the model successfully detected and diagnosed the faults types that were tested for different operation conditions. In the second method, principle component analysis is used to drive linear correlations of the original variables and calculate the principle components to reduce the dimensionality of the system. Then simple clustering technique is used for operation conditions classification and fault detection and diagnosis process. Each fault is represented by four clusters connected with three lines where each cluster represents different fault intensity level. The fault detection is performed by measuring the shortest orthogonal distance between the test point and the lines connecting the faults’ clusters. Simulated fault free and faulty data are used to train the model. Then, a new set of simulated faults data is used to test the model and the model successfully detected and diagnosed all faults type and intensity level of the tested faults for different operation conditions. Both models used simple seven temperature measurements, two pressure measurements (from which the condensation and evaporation temperatures are calculated) and the electrical power, as an input to the fault detection and diagnosis model. This is to reduce the cost and make it more convenient to implement. Finally, for each models, a user friendly graphical user interface is built to facilitate the model operation by the serviceman.

▼ Missing data are common in medical research. One area where missing data can arise is in composite scores (or scale scores) when one or more of the items that form the scale is incomplete. A method that is becoming increasingly popular for handling missing data is multiple imputation (MI). In the context of missing data in scale scores, MI can be applied at either the item level or the scale level. Various strategies have been proposed in the literature for imputing missing data at the scale level and the item level. Yet there is little comparison of these strategies in longitudinal settings and not much guidance is available about how to best implement these strategies. The challenge with using the available strategies in longitudinal studies is that one may want to impute missing data in several scales, each of which comprises a large number of items that have been measured at several waves, leading to large imputation models which may result in convergence problems. It is therefore important to evaluate the performance of these strategies in longitudinal settings to provide proper guidance for users of MI. In this thesis, I used a simulation study and a real example from the Longitudinal Study of Australian Children (LSAC) to compare the performance of the four MI strategies that are available for handling missing data in composite scores within a longitudinal setting. These strategies are: scale-level imputation using scale scores as auxiliary variables; the “standard” item-level imputation, which uses other items as auxiliary variables; item-level imputation using scale scores as auxiliary variables; and item-level imputation using principal components, derived from other items, as auxiliary variables. I also compared the effect of implementing these strategies using two MI approaches, multivariate normal imputation (MVNI) and fully conditional specification (FCS). While the literature recommends item-level imputation over scale level imputation, the research in this thesis demonstrates that when implemented using FCS, item-level imputation, with items from other scales as auxiliary variables, could produce biased parameter estimates. This research also provides support for using scales scores or principal components as auxiliary variables in item-level imputation models when the “standard” item-level imputation strategy cannot be used due to convergence problems.

▼ Our unprecedented capacity for data generation and acquisition often reaches the limits of our data storage capabilities. Situations when data are generated faster or at a greater volume than can be stored demand a streaming approach. Memory is an even more valuable resource. Algorithms that use more memory than necessary can pose bottlenecks when processing high-dimensional data and the need for memory-efficient algorithms is especially stressed in the streaming setting. Finally, network along with storage, emerge as the critical bottlenecks in the context of distributed computation. These computational constraints spell out a demand for efficient tools that guarantee a solution in the face of limited resources, even when the data is very noisy or highly incomplete. For the first part of this dissertation, we present our work on streaming, memory-limited Principal Component Analysis (PCA). Therein, we give the first convergence guarantees for an algorithm that solves PCA in the single-pass streaming setting. Then, we discuss the distinct challenges that arise when the received samples are overwhelmingly incomplete and present an algorithm and analysis that deals with this issue. Finally, we give a set of extensive experiment results that showcase the practical merits of our algorithm over the state of the art. The need for heavy network communication arises as the bottleneck when dealing with cluster computation. In that paradigm, a set of worker nodes are connected over the network to produce a cluster with improved computational and storage capacities. This comes with an increased need for communication across the network. In the last part of this work, we consider the problem of PageRank on graph engines. Therein, we make changes to GraphLab, a state-of-the-art platform for distributed graph computation, in a way that leads to a 7x-10x speedup for certain PageRank approximation tasks. Accompanying analysis supports the behaviour we see in our experiments.

▼ The vast majority of chemical and bio-chemical process plants are normally characterized by large number of measurements and relatively small number of manipulated variables; these thin plants have more output than input variables. As the number of manipulated variables restricts the number of controlled variables, thin plant has presented a daunting challenge to the engineers in selecting which measured variables to be controlled. In general, this is an important problem in modern process control today, because controlled variables selection is one of the key questions which must be carefully addressed in order to effectively design control strategies for process plants. While the issue relating to controlled variables selection has remained the key question to be resolved since the articulation of CSD problem by Foss in 1970s, the work described in this thesis points out to another equally important question in CSD, that is, what is the sufficient number of controlled variables required? Thinking over this question leads one to the necessity for gaining a rational understating of the governing principle in partial control design, namely the variables interaction.In this thesis, we propose a novel data-oriented approach to solving the control structure problem within the context of partial control framework. This approach represents a significant departure from the mainstream methods in CSD, which currently can be broadly classified into two major categories as the mathematical-oriented and heuristic-hierarchical approaches. The key distinguishing feature of the proposed approach lies in its adoption of technique based on the Principal Component Analysis (PCA), which is used to systematically determine the suitable controlled variables. Conversely, the determination of the controlled variables in mathematical-oriented and heuristic-hierarchical approaches is done via the mathematical optimization and process knowledge/engineering experience, respectively. It is important to note that, the data-oriented approach in this thesis emerges from the fusion of two important concepts, namely the partial control structure and PCA. While partial control concept provides the sound theoretical framework for addressing the CSD problem in a systematic manner, the PCA-based technique helps in determining not only the suitable controlled variables but also the sufficient number of controlled variables required.Since the classical framework of partial control is not amendable to a systematic way in the identification of controlled variables, it is necessary to develop a new framework of partial control in this thesis. Within this new framework the dominant variable can be clearly defined, and which in turn allows the incorporation of PCA-based technique for the systematic identification of controlled variables.The application of the data-oriented approach is demonstrated on a nonlinear multivariable bioprocess case study, called the two-stage continuous extractive (TSCE) alcoholic fermentation process. The system consists of 5…

▼ Forests in the southern United States with diverse forest ownership entities are facing threats associated with climate change and natural disturbances. This study represented the relationship between climate and species dominance, predicted future species distribution probability under a changing climate, and projected forest dynamics under ownership-based management regimes. Correlative statistics and mechanistic modeling approaches are implemented. Temporal scale includes the recent past 40 years and the future 60 years; spatial scale downscaled from southern United States to the coastal region of the northern Gulf of Mexico. In the southern United States, dominance of four major pine species experienced shifts from 1970 to 2000; quantile regression models built on the relationships among pine dominance and climatic variables can be used to predict future southern pine dominance. Furthermore, multiple climate envelope models (CEMs) were constructed for nineteen native and one invasive tree species (Chinese tallow, <i>Triadica sebifera</i>) to predict species establishment probabilities (SEPs) on the various land types from 2010 to 2070. CEMs achieved both predictive consistency and ecological conformity in estimating SEPs. Chinese tallow was predicted to have the highest invasionability in longleaf/slash pine and oak/gum/cypress forests during the next 60 years. Forest dynamics, in the coastal region, was projected by linking CEMs and forest landscape model (LANDIS) to evaluate ownership-based management regimes under climate change and natural disturbances. The dominance of forest species will diminish due to climate change and natural disturbances at both spatial scalesin the coastal region and non-industrial private forest (NIPF). No management on NIPF land was predicted to substantially increase the ratio of occupancy area between pines and oaks, but moderate and intensive management regimes were not significantly different. Pines are expected to be more resistant than oaks by maintaining stable age structures, which matched the forest inventory records. Overall, this study projected a future of southern forests on climate-species relationship, invasion risks, and forest community dynamics under multiple scenarios in the United States. Such knowledge could assist forest managers and landowners in foreseeing the future and making effective management prescriptions to mitigate potential threats.

▼ This research investigated the application of recurrent neural networks (RNNs) for recognition of facial expressions based on facial action coding system (FACS). Support vector machines (SVMs) were used to validate the results obtained by RNNs. In this approach, instead of recognizing whole facial expressions, the focus was on the recognition of action units (AUs) that are defined in FACS. Recurrent neural networks are capable of gaining knowledge from temporal data while SVMs, which are time invariant, are known to be very good classifiers. Thus, the research consists of four important components: comparison of the use of image sequences against single static images, benchmarking feature selection and network optimization approaches, study of inter-AU correlations by implementing multiple output RNNs, and study of difference images as an approach for performance improvement. In the comparative studies, image sequences were classified using a combination of Gabor filters and RNNs, while single static images were classified using Gabor filters and SVMs. Sets of 11 FACS AUs were classified by both approaches, where a single RNN/SVM classifier was used for classifying each AU. Results indicated that classifying FACS AUs using image sequences yielded better results than using static images. The average recognition rate (RR) and false alarm rate (FAR) using image sequences was 82.75% and 7.61%, respectively, while the classification using single static images yielded a RR and FAR of 79.47% and 9.22%, respectively. The better performance by the use of image sequences can be at- tributed to RNNs ability, as stated above, to extract knowledge from time-series data. Subsequent research then investigated benchmarking dimensionality reduction, feature selection and network optimization techniques, in order to improve the performance provided by the use of image sequences. Results showed that an optimized network, using weight decay, gave best RR and FAR of 85.38% and 6.24%, respectively. The next study was of the inter-AU correlations existing in the Cohn-Kanade database and their effect on classification models. To accomplish this, a model was developed for the classification of a set of AUs by a single multiple output RNN. Results indicated that high inter-AU correlations do in fact aid classification models to gain more knowledge and, thus, perform better. However, this was limited to AUs that start and reach apex at almost the same time. This suggests the need for availability of a larger database of AUs, which could provide both individual and AU combinations for further investigation. The final part of this research investigated use of difference images to track the motion of image pixels. Difference images provide both noise and feature reduction, an aspect that was studied. Results showed that the use of difference image sequences provided the best results, with RR and FAR of 87.95% and 3.45%, respectively, which is shown to be significant when compared to use of normal image sequences classified using RNNs.

A indústria automóvel é em Portugal um setor significativamente importante para a sociedade, quer na criação de emprego como também para o desenvolvimento económico do País. No entanto, para continuarem no mercado, as organizações devem assegurar a sua competitividade não só em relação a empresas Portuguesas, mas sobretudo em relação às empresas estrangeiras, uma vez que a maioria da produção desta indústria tem como destino o resto do mundo através da exportação. Esta dissertação tem como objetivo investigar os fatores que contribuem para a competitividade da indústria automóvel Portuguesa através da criação de valor, mais concretamente a indústria de produção de componentes, ferramentas e prestação de serviços. Com base na revisão das principais teorias de vantagem competitiva, recorreu-se a uma pesquisa quantitativa, através de um questionário on-line, para validar as hipóteses de investigação propostas. Através do tratamento estatístico dos resultados aplicando metodologias de estatística descritiva, análise de componentes principais e análise de correlação, foi possível concluir que na indústria em análise a criação de valor é influenciada pela adoção de uma estratégia de diferenciação/focalização e pelo contexto externo favorável, não tendo sido possível concluir se as caraterísticas específicas da organização influenciam, ou não, a criação de valor. Do ponto de vista teórico, as conclusões demonstram a relevância da adoção de uma estratégia de diferenciação e focalização, e do contexto externo, para a competitividade das organizações, suportando os pressupostos da Teoria Baseada na Indústria de Porter. Quanto ao ponto de vista prático, os resultados destacam a importância da monitorização do contexto externo e do investimento na investigação e desenvolvimento, imagem de marca e especialização de mercado, para potenciar a criação de valor e competitividade da indústria de produção de componentes, ferramentas e prestação de serviços, para o setor automóvel.

The automotive industry in Portugal is a significant sector for the society, both in job creation and in the country's economic development. However, to remain in the market, organizations must ensure their competitiveness not only in relation to Portuguese companies, but especially in relation to foreign companies, since most of the production of this industry is destined to the rest of the world through export. This dissertation aims to investigate the factors that contribute for the competitiveness of the Portuguese automotive industry, more specifically the components and tooling manufacturing and service rendering, through the creation of value. Based on the review of the main theories of competitive advantage, a quantitative research was done through an online questionnaire to validate the proposed research hypotheses. The statistical analysis of the results, based on the application of descriptive statistics methodologies, principle components analysis and correlation analysis, it was possible to conclude that in the industry in study, the value…

▼ The dynamics captured in the ocean surface current data provided by satellite altimetry has been a subject of debate since the past decade. In particular, the contribution of surface and interior dynamics to altimetry remains unclear. One avenue to settling this issue is to compare the turbulence (for example, the nature of spectra and interscale ﬂuxes) captured by altimetry to theories of two-dimensional, surface and interior quasigeostrophic turbulence. In this thesis, we focus on mesoscales (i.e., scales of the order of few hundred kms) that are well resolved by altimetry data. Aspects of two dimensional, three dimensional, geotropic and surface quasigeostrophic turbulence are revisited and compared with the observations. Speciﬁcally, we compute kinetic energy (KE) spectra and ﬂuxes in ﬁve geographical regions (all over the globe) using 21 years of 0.25◦resolution daily data as provided by the AVISO project. We report a strong forward cascade of KE at small scales (accompanied by a spectral scaling of the form k−3) and a robust inverse cascade at larger scales. Further, we show that the small diver-gent part in horizontal velocity data drives the strong forward ﬂux of KE. Indeed, on considering only the non-divergent part of the ﬂow, in accord with incompressible two-dimensional turbulence, the inverse cascade is unaffected, but the forward transfer becomes very weak and the spectral slopes over this range of scales tend to a relatively steeper k−3.5scaling. We note that our results do not agree with interior ﬁrst bar clinic mode quasigeostrophic (incorrect strength of forward ﬂux) or surface-quasigeostrophic (incorrect spectral slopes) turbulence. Rather, the results are compatible with rotating shallow water and rotating stratiﬁed Boussinesq models in which condition of geostrophic balance is dominant but the divergence of horizontal velocity ﬁeld is not exactly zero. Having seen the “mean” picture of ﬂuxes and spectra from altimetry, in the second part of the thesis we investigate the variability of these entities. In particular, we employ Empirical Or-thogonal Function (EOF) analysis and focus on the variability in the spectral ﬂux. Remarkably, over the entire globe, irrespective of the region under consideration, we see that the ﬁrst two EOFs explain a large part of the variability in ﬂux anomalies. The geometry of these modes is distinct, the ﬁrst represents a single signed transfer across scales (i.e. large to small or small to large depending on the sign of the associated principal component), while the second is a mixed mode in that it exhibits a forward/inverse transfer at large/small scales.

▼ This study used Principal Component Analysis to examine factors that facilitate emergent change in an organization. As organizational life becomes more complex, today’s dominant management paradigms no longer suffice. This is particularly true in a health care setting where multiple sources of disease interacting with each other meet with often-competing organizational priorities and accountabilities in a highly complex world. This study identifies new ways of approaching complexity by embracing the capacity of complex systems to find their own form of order and coherence. Based on a review of the literature, interviews with hospital CEOs, and my organization development practice experience in the health care sector, I identified nine constructs of interest: a strategic framework; organizational culture; work structures; CEO and executive team; leadership culture; quality control systems; accountability framework; learning structures; and feedback processes. One hundred and sixty-two senior leaders, managers, and staff at a hospital in Toronto, Canada, who had completed an eight-week leadership program, completed an Emergence Survey© based on the nine constructs of interest. The survey included Likert items representing the nine constructs, as well as opportunities to provide narrative feedback. In the initial analysis of the survey results, the items taken as a whole would not converge on a clear set of components. It was also clear that the mean for most of the items was very high. I theorized that the size of the sample and possibility that they were a favorably biased convenience sample because they had self-selected as leaders may have contributed to the lack of convergence and high mean. I then theorized three clusters of constructs, based on what appeared to be natural affinities. At that point I facilitated two focus groups with people who were among the survey group. Both focus groups affirmed the importance of each of the factors in improving organizational performance indicators such as patient satisfaction, staff engagement, and quality. I then completed a principal component analysis of each of the three clusters of constructs. From this analysis, seven components emerged. Five of these, executive engagement, safe-fail culture, collaborative decision-processes, a collaborative quality, and intentional learning processes had reliability >.70; culture of experimentation and purposeful orientation had reliability < .70.

▼ Laser based underwater triangulation ranging is sensitive to the environmental conditions and laser beam profile. Also, its ranging quality is greatly affected by the algorithm choices for peak detection and for image processing. By utilizing the merging least-squares approximation for laser image processing, it indeed succeeds in increasing quality of triangulation ranging in water; however, this result was obtained on the use of a laser beam with nearly circular cross-section. Therefore, by using an ellipse-like laser beam cross-section for range finding, we are really interested in understanding the quality of range finding with different peak detection algorithms. Besides, the ellipse orientation of the laser spot projected on the image plane would be various. We are also interested in learning about the relationship between the ellipse orientation and the quality of range finding. In this study, peak detection algorithms are investigated by considering four different laser beam cross-sections which are ircle, horizontal ellipse, oblique ellipse, and vertical ellipse. First, we employ polynomial regression for processing laser image to study the effect of polynomial degree on quality of triangulation ranging. It was found that the linear regression achieves the best ranging quality than others. Then, according to this result, the ranging quality associated with peak detection is evaluated by employing three different algorithms which are the illumination center, twice illumination center and the illumination center with principal component analysis. We found that the ranging quality by using the illumination center with principal component analysis is the best, next is twice illumination center, and last the illumination center. This result indicates that the orientation of elliptical laser beam has an influential effect on the quality of range finding. In addition, the ranging quality difference among peak detection algorithms is significantly reduced by implementing the merging least-squares approximation rlaser image processing. This result illustrates that the merging least-squares approximation does reduce the effect of peak detection algorithm on the quality of range finding.

De nombreux signaux physiques incluant des signaux audio (musique, parole), médicaux (ECG, PCG), de mammifères marins ou d'ondes gravitationnelles peuvent être modélisés comme une superposition d'ondes modulées en amplitude et en fréquence (modes AM-FM), appelés signaux multicomposantes (SMCs). L'analyse temps-fréquence (TF) joue un rôle central pour la caractérisation de tels signaux et, dans ce cadre, diverses méthodes ont été développées au cours de la dernière décennie. Néanmoins, ces méthodes souffrent d'une limitation intrinsèque appelée le principe d'incertitude. Dans ce contexte, la méthode de réallocation (MR) a été développée visant à améliorer les représentations TF (RTFs) données respectivement par la transformée de Fourier à court terme (TFCT) et la transformée en ondelette continue (TOC), en les concentrant autour des lignes de crête correspondant aux fréquences instantanées. Malheureusement, elle ne permet pas de reconstruction des modes, contrairement à sa variante récente connue sous le nom de transformée synchrosqueezée (TSS). Toutefois, de nombreux problèmes associés à cette dernière restent encore à traiter tels que le traitement des fortes modulations en fréquence, la reconstruction des modes d'un SMC à partir de sa TFCT sous-échantillonnée or l'estimation des signatures TF de modes irréguliers et discontinus. Cette thèse traite principalement de tels problèmes afin de construire des nouvelles méthodes TF inversibles plus puissantes et précises pour l'analyse des SMCs.Cette thèse offre six nouvelles contributions précieuses. La première contribution introduit une extension de TSS d'ordre deux appliqué à la TOC ainsi qu'une discussion sur son analyse théorique et sa mise en œuvre pratique. La seconde contribution propose une généralisation des techniques de synchrosqueezing construites sur la TFCT, connue sous le nom de transformée synchrosqueezée d'ordre supérieur (FTSSn), qui permet de mieux traiter une large gamme de SMCs. La troisième contribution propose une nouvelle technique utilisant sur la transformée synchrosqueezée appliquée à la TFCT de second ordre (FTSS2) et une procédure de démodulation, appelée DTSS2, conduisant à une meilleure performance de la reconstruction des modes. La quatrième contribution est celle d'une nouvelle approche permettant la récupération des modes d'un SMC à partir de sa TFCT sous-échantillonnée. La cinquième contribution présente une technique améliorée, appelée calcul de représentation des contours adaptatifs (CRCA), utilisée pour une estimation efficace des signatures TF d'une plus grande classe de SMCs. La dernière contribution est celle d'une analyse conjointe entre l'CRCA et la factorisation matricielle non-négative (FMN) pour un débruitage performant des signaux phonocardiogrammes (PCG).

Les techniques d'analyse du visage nécessitent généralement une représentation pertinente des images, notamment en passant par des techniques de réduction de la dimension, intégrées dans des schémas plus globaux, et qui visent à capturer les caractéristiques discriminantes des signaux. Dans cette thèse, nous fournissons d'abord une vue générale sur l'état de l'art de ces modèles, puis nous appliquons une nouvelle méthode intégrant une approche non-linéaire, Kernel Similarity Principle Component Analysis (KS-PCA), aux Modèles Actifs d'Apparence (AAMs), pour modéliser l'apparence d'un visage dans des conditions d'illumination variables. L'algorithme proposé améliore notablement les résultats obtenus par l'utilisation d'une transformation PCA linéaire traditionnelle, que ce soit pour la capture des caractéristiques saillantes, produites par les variations d'illumination, ou pour la reconstruction des visages. Nous considérons aussi le problème de la classification automatiquement des poses des visages pour différentes vues et différentes illumination, avec occlusion et bruit. Basé sur les méthodes des représentations parcimonieuses, nous proposons deux cadres d'apprentissage de dictionnaire pour ce problème. Une première méthode vise la classification de poses à l'aide d'une représentation parcimonieuse active (Active Sparse Representation ASRC). En fait, un dictionnaire est construit grâce à un modèle linéaire, l'Incremental Principle Component Analysis (Incremental PCA), qui a tendance à diminuer la redondance intra-classe qui peut affecter la performance de la classification, tout en gardant la redondance inter-classes, qui elle, est critique pour les représentations parcimonieuses. La seconde approche proposée est un modèle des représentations parcimonieuses basé sur le Dictionary-Learning Sparse Representation (DLSR), qui cherche à intégrer la prise en compte du critère de la classification dans le processus d'apprentissage du dictionnaire. Nous faisons appel dans cette partie à l'algorithme K-SVD. Nos résultats expérimentaux montrent la performance de ces deux méthodes d'apprentissage de dictionnaire. Enfin, nous proposons un nouveau schéma pour l'apprentissage de dictionnaire adapté à la normalisation de l'illumination (Dictionary Learning for Illumination Normalization: DLIN). L'approche ici consiste à construire une paire de dictionnaires avec une représentation parcimonieuse. Ces dictionnaires sont construits respectivement à partir de visages illuminées normalement et irrégulièrement, puis optimisés de manière conjointe. Nous utilisons un modèle de mixture de Gaussiennes (GMM) pour augmenter la capacité à modéliser des données avec des distributions plus complexes. Les résultats expérimentaux démontrent l'efficacité de notre approche pour la normalisation d'illumination.
