DfX-Symposium 2021 Synthetic Data Generation for Deep Learning Models Christoph Petroll 1 , 2 , Martin Denk 2 , Jens Holtmannspötter 1 ,2, Kristin Paetzold 3 , Philipp Höfer 2 1 The Bundeswehr Research Institute for Materials, Fuels and Lubricants (WIWeB) 2 Universität der Bundeswehr München (UniBwM) 3 Technische Universität Dresden * Korrespondierender Autor: Christoph Petroll Institutsweg 1 85435 Erding Germany Telephone: 08122/9590 3313 Mail: [email protected] Abstract The design freedom and functional integration of additive manufacturing is increasingly being implemented in existing products. One of the biggest challenges are competing optimization goals and functions. This leads to multidisciplinary optimization problems which needs to be solved in parallel. To solve this problem, the authors require a synthetic data set to train a deep learning metamodel. The research presented shows how to create a data set with the right quality and quantity. It is discussed what are the requirements for solving an MDO problem with a metamodel taking into account functional and production-specific boundary conditions. A data set of generic designs is then generated and validated. The generation of the generic design proposals is accompanied by a specific product development example of a drone combustion engine. Keywords Multidisciplinary Optimization Problem, Synthetic Data, Deep Learning © 2021 die Autoren | DOI: https://doi.org/10.35199/dfx2021.11 1. Introduction and Idea of This Research Due to its great design freedom, additive manufacturing (AM) shows a high potential of functional integration and part consolidation [1]-[3]. For this purpose, functions and optimization goals that are usually fulfilled by individual components must be considered in parallel.

  • Procedural Generation of Infinite Terrain from Real-World Elevation
    Journal of Computer Graphics Techniques Vol. 3, No. 1, 2014 http://jcgt.org Designer Worlds: Procedural Generation of Infinite Terrain from Real-World Elevation Data Ian Parberry University of North Texas Figure 1.A 180◦ panorama of terrain generated using elevation data from Utah. Abstract The standard way to procedurally generate random terrain for video games and other applica- tions is to post-process the output of a fast noise generator such as Perlin noise. Tuning the post-processing to achieve particular types of terrain requires game designers to be reason- ably well-trained in mathematics. A well-known variant of Perlin noise called value noise is used in a process accessible to designers trained in geography to generate geotypical terrain based on elevation statistics drawn from widely available sources such as the United States Geographical Service. A step-by-step process for downloading and creating terrain from real- world USGS elevation data is described, and an implementation in C++ is given. 1. Introduction Terrain generation is an example of what is known in the game industry as procedu- ral content generation. Procedural content generation needs to have three important properties. First, it needs to be fast, meaning that it has to use only a fraction of the computing power on a current-generation computer. Second, it needs to be both ran- dom and structured so that it creates content that is varied and interesting. Third, it needs to be controllable in a natural and intuitive way. As noted in the excellent survey paper by Smelik et al. [2009], procedural terrain generation is often based on fractal noise generators such as Perlin noise [Perlin 1985; Perlin 2002] (for more details see, for example, the book by Ebert et al.

  • Interfacing to Analog World Sensor Interfacing
    Interfacing to Analog World Sensor Interfacing • Introduction to Analog to digital Conversion • Why Analog to Digital? • Basics of A/D Conversion. • A/D converter inside PIC16F887 • Related Problems Prepared By- Mohammed Abdul Kader Assistant Professor, EEE, IIUC Introduction to Analog to digital Conversion Signals in the real world are analog: light, sound, temperature, pressure, acceleration or other phenomenon. So, real-world signals must be converted into digital, using a circuit called ADC (Analog-to-Digital Converter), before they can be manipulated by digital equipment. When you scan a picture with a scanner what the scanner is doing is an analog-to-digital conversion: it is taking the analog information provided by the picture (light) and converting into digital. When you record your voice on your computer, you are using an analog-to-digital converter to convert your voice, which is analog, into digital information. When an audio CD is recorded at a studio, once again analog-to-digital is taking place, converting sounds into digital numbers that will be stored on the disc. Whenever we need the analog signal back, the opposite conversion – digital-to-analog, which is done by a circuit called DAC, Digital-to-Analog Converter – is needed. When you play an audio CD, what the CD player is doing is reading digital information stored on the disc and converting it back to analog so you can hear the audio. 2 Lecture Materials on "Interfacing to Analog World", By- Mohammed Abdul Kader, Assistant Professor, EEE, IIUC Why Analog to Digital? 1. Reducing Noise: Since analog signals can assume any value, noise is interpreted as being part of the original signal.

It focuses on classic procedural textures like different types of rock and sand. Most time is spent on implicit textures generation on a GPU, this means a limit to the types of algorithms that can be used. As such, much of the work focuses on noise implementations. The goal is to lower video memory usage by changing regular sampled textures with procedural ones. In the end a few ways of creating textures with a satisfactory level of detail is suggested using a blend of regular textures and procedural ones. Sammanfattning Detta examensarbete undersöker möjligheterna att byta ut vanliga texturer mot procedurella texturer. Den fokuserar på klassiska procedurella texturer som exempelvis sten och sand. Jag jobbar mest med implicita texturer körda på GPUn vilket medför en del begränsningar i vilka algoritmer som kan köras. På grund av detta ligger väldigt mycket fokus på olika noise implementationer. Målet är att minska texturminnet som används igenom att ändra vanliga texturer med procedurella motsvarigheter. I slutändan presenterar jag några sätt att skapa texturer med tillräckliga detaljer där vi använder en blandning av vanliga texturer och procedurella.

As a feature representation method for automatically learning essential features from image data, convolutional neural networks (CNNs) have been introduced for HSR remote sensing image scene classification due to their excellent performance in natural image classification. However, some scene classes of remote sensing images are object-centered, i.e., the scene class of an image is decided by the objects it contains. Although previous methods based on CNNs have achieved comparatively high classification accuracies compared with the traditional methods with handcrafted features, they do not consider the scale variation of the objects in the scenes. This makes it difficult to directly utilize CNNs on those remote sensing images belonging to object-centered classes to extract features that are robust to scale variation, leading to wrongly classified scene images.

  • Training a Quantum Pointnet with Nesterov Accelerated Gradient Estimation by Projection
    Training a Quantum PointNet with Nesterov Accelerated Gradient Estimation by Projection Ruoxi Shi Hao Tang Xian-Min Jin Center for Integrated Quantum Information Technologies (IQIT) Shanghai Jiao Tong University Shanghai, 200240, China {eliphat, htang2015, xianmin.jin}@sjtu.edu.cn Abstract PointNet is a bedrock for deep learning methods on point clouds for 3D machine vision. However, the pointwise operations involved in PointNet is resource in- tensive, and the expressiveness of PointNet is limited by the size of its feature space. In this paper, we propose Quantum PointNet with a rectifed max pooling operation to achieve an exponential speedup performing the pointwise operations and meanwhile obtaining a quantum-enhanced feature space. We provide an im- plementation with quantum tensor networks and specify a circuit model that runs on near-term quantum computers. Meanwhile, we develop the NA-GEP (Nesterov Accelerated Gradient Estimation by Projection) optimization framework, together with a periodic batching scheme, to help train large-scale quantum networks more efficiently. We demonstrate that Quantum PointNet reaches competitive perfor- mance to its classical counterpart on a subset of the ModelNet40 dataset with 48x fewer operations required to process a point cloud. It is also shown that NA-GEP is robust under different kinds of noises. A mini Quantum PointNet is able to run on real quantum computers, achieving ∼100% accuracy classifying three kinds of shapes with a small number of shots. 1 Introduction We live in a 3-dimensional world. Machines, especially robots, need to interpret 3-dimensional sur- roundings precisely to interact rationally with their environment. Thus, understanding 3D information is of great importance.
