I predict the Lab will get more involved in diagnostics/prognostics in the near-to-mid future. I'd be very pleased to see a lab member getting experience in that area at a prime research center.

Artur -----Original Message----- From: research-bounces at autonlab.org [mailto:research-bounces at autonlab.org] On Behalf Of Sajid Siddiqi Sent: Friday, March 31, 2006 5:01 PM To: research at autonlab.org Subject: [Research] FW: Summer internship (reply ASAP) Xerox Labs is looking for an intern to fill a last-minute vacancy. Please send your resume ASAP if interested since they want to fill it by early next week. Sajid ----------------------------------------- Project: Diagonstics and prognostics for complex systems. Xerox is faced with a serious and continuing challenge to increase the efficiency of its service and increase customer satisfaction. Understanding and predicting fault patterns in printers in the field is essential to this effort. This requires modeling and data mining of a plethora of data from a variety of sources, few of which have been exploited. In this project, the summer intern would spearhead an investigation into novel approaches to modeling causally interconnected and dependent time series data from a complex system. Distributed printing systems such as iGen3 are hard to model and according to engineers get into "chaotic regions" that are hard to analyze. The approach of using complex systems to analyze time series behavior of these systems is expected to produce new insights into failures. Although the immediate interest would be to exploit currently collected data, we envision the benefits of this work to influence document workflow modeling in the enterprise. Requirements: Ph.D. student in computer science, systems engineering, statistics or mathematics. Knowledge and experience in time series analysis, data mining and databases. John C.

On the other topic: we are looking for a summer intern to work on a project that involves active learning in collaborative fitering settings and exploration vs exploitation in sequential decision making/RL. Ideally, the pesron should be also familiar with graphical models. The application domain is in distributed computer systems (resource allocation). Since you have done lots of work in active learning area, I thought I may ask you if you have any students potentially interested in a summer internship in our group. Thanx!

Tonight's speaker: Anna Goldenberg Title: Contextual Dynamic Friendship Networks Abstract: The study of social networks has gained new importance with the recent rise of large on-line communities. Most current approaches focus on deterministic (descriptive) models and are usually restricted to a preset number of social actors. Moreover, the dynamic aspect is often treated as an addendum to the static model. Taking inspiration from real-life friendship formation patterns, we propose a new generative model of evolving social networks that allows for birth and death of social ties and addition of new actors. Each actor has a distribution over social interaction spheres, which we term "contexts." We study the robustness of our model by examining statistical properties of simulated networks relative to well known properties of real social networks. A Gibbs sampling procedure is developed for parameter learning. The talk will be supplemented with some general lab status updates and news.

At Auton Lab, we're proud of doing things that are cool, great, with high-impact and eventually will benefit the world. In the past more than one decade, this implicit value system has motivated our lab members to do excellent project one after another and create numerous successful stories where we demonstrated to the world our true value. Now, let's take some time to reflect our greatest achievement at Auton Lab that you're mostly proud of. The result from this exercise will be compiled into a "success stories" webpage on our Auton website, this would provide an efficient overview of lab's capability to outsider visitor who is looking into our lab for solutions. In the Adwords program soon to be launched, this webpage would serve as the landing page for the visitors directed from Adwords search. (P.S. Google Adwords is a free advertisement program recently awarded through Google Grant). Please list THREE greatest things that you and/or your colleagues have done that we should be so proud to tell people outside the lab. Here are some guidelines: *the work should have real world impact or have potential real impact, substantiated with concrete application example are especially desirable; *start from your own work, but you could also cite other lab member's work; *take perspective of user: what's the significance of your work? What they could benefit from your work? Why they should care? *describe in a snappy way so that even a busy people you meet in the elevator would chase you for more information after your 30 second preach; *describe in plain language so that even your grandma has no problem to understand; Lab Alumni are also encouraged to contribute. If you feel like to list more than three, feel free to extend the list. Please submit your answer to me by noon next Thursday (May 4). The list would be compiled and shared among all lab members. We will discuss more details about the "success stories" webpage and Adwords campaign design in the upcoming lab meeting, so it's imperative that you finish this "homework" by then. Please direct your questions to Artur or me.

PROBLEM: The reason for this is that we have [quick] control over .autonlab.org DNS servers, but the .cs.cmu.edu DNS changes must go through SCS Help, which takes longer than is useful. Since the IP addresses have changed temporarily, DNS resolution to the moved .auton.cs.cmu.edu machines will not work. TO FIX: If you use a ".auton.cs.cmu.edu" suffix on your CVSROOT, you will need to change it to ".autonlab.org". Follow the instructions at http://www.autonlab.org/auton_intranet/15869.html To change your CVSROOT. Once you do this, you will be setup in a way that is not as sensitive to server moves in the future, so it is good to do, even if you are not planning on using CVS this weekend. -- Michael J.

Do not try to use .cs.cmu.edu suffix (ex lop1.auton.cs.cmu.edu), as this will not work during the temporary move. Michael J.
