Discovering time-varying aeroelastic models of a long-span suspension bridge from field measurements by sparse identification of nonlinear dynamical systems [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2018
We develop data-driven dynamical models of the nonlinear aeroelastic effects on a long-span suspension bridge from sparse, noisy sensor measurements which monitor the bridge. Using the {\em sparse identification of nonlinear dynamics} (SINDy) algorithm, we are able to identify parsimonious, time-varying dynamical systems that capture vortex-induced ...

Physics-Informed Neural Network based Damage Identification for Truss Railroad Bridges [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv
Railroad bridges are a crucial component of the U.S. freight rail system, which moves over 40 percent of the nation's freight and plays a critical role in the economy. However, aging bridge infrastructure and increasing train traffic pose significant safety hazards and risk service disruptions. The U.S.

Social capital and social media: the effects of Facebook use on social capital and perceived community involvement [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The purpose of this paper is to look at the effect of social media use on social capital. This paper attempts to establish a dichotomy between 'real' and 'perceived' social capital and the effect of social media use on both.

Generative Bridging Network in Neural Sequence Prediction [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2017
In order to alleviate data sparsity and overfitting problems in maximum likelihood estimation (MLE) for sequence prediction tasks, we propose the Generative Bridging Network (GBN), in which a novel bridge module is introduced to assist the training of the sequence prediction model (the generator network).
