Hitachi Energy
The electrical power system is evolving due to e.g. an increasing amount of renewables and distributed power generation. FACTS (Flexible AC Transmission Systems) devices can assist with this evolution by improving the power quality and reducing the risk of system disconnections.
In this master thesis proposal, we want to investigate the application of machine learning to a FACTS device. The device itself is based on a power electronic converter and has its own local controller. The performance, in terms of efficiency and stability, is dependent on modelling assumptions which may to a certain extent deviate from reality. Here, the objective would be to improve the performance of the FACTS device, by application and integration of a suitable machine learning method into the control. The master thesis is planned to start in January 2023.

Cross-city domain shift is the cause of a 25-30% metrics drop of normal Deep Learning predictors. Change of weather and lighting conditions might even result in more disruptive effects. Therefore, to provide a robust and accurate output, the predictor would need to be trained on every possible deployment condition, e.g. multiple cites, districts, seasons, kinds of weather, cameras pose and intrinsics. This largely reduces the scalability of AI solutions both in terms of costs and deployment time. Recent Unsupervised Domain Adaptation (UDA) methods proved to be very effective in mitigating (or even solving) these shortcomings.

Babyshop Group
Leveraging transfer learning for multi-label attribute prediction in fashion images, using deep learning
At Babyshop Group, there exist tens of thousands of images of children’s apparel. Currently, new items are labeled by hand, where each item has multiple attributes, eg. color, category, pattern, neckline, and style, etc. Since the workload of this manual task is immense, a need for a support system is high. In literature, a multitude of previous work has been done in regards to multi-label attribute prediction on fashion clothing, most notably DeepFashion and iMaterialist Fashion. Here, deep learning models have been trained on hundreds of thousands of labeled images to predict corresponding attributes, which has proven highly successful. However, almost all of these images are of adult fashion, with very little emphasis on childrens’ fashion. The question then arises, is it possible to combine the pre-trained models from previously mentioned multi-label attribution prediction models that are trained on almost exclusively adults’ fashion, together with the learnings from transfer-learning frameworks - in order to successfully perform multi-label attribution prediction on childrens’ fashion?
Required qualifications: MSc studies in Computer Science, Machine Learning, Computer Engineering, Mathematics, Physics, or related field; Good understanding of machine learning frameworks such as Keras, TensorFlow, PyTorch, Scikit-Learn, and/or Spark; Proficiency in Python and Git; Knowledge about data wrangling and data munging, using SQL, Pandas, and Numpy.

Time frame: from early January to mid-June.
