Submission link: https://forms.gle/owMZQys1yd6zXtkMA Scope of the Book: -------------------- Computational Intelligence (CI) based hyperspectral image analysis has gained significant importance in recent years due to its ability to extract valuable information from hyperspectral images and make predictions. Hyperspectral images provide a rich source of information about the composition and properties of objects in the environment. However, the vast amount of data generated by hyperspectral images can be overwhelming and hard to analyze. With their ability to provide valuable insights and improve decision-making, Computational Intelligence techniques act as a powerful tool that aids in automatic analysis and improves accuracy. Recent advances in the field have provided new and exciting ways to employ CI-based hyperspectral image analysis in many diverse applications. The book aims to showcase these latest achievements and novel approaches in this field, focusing on their wide applications in agriculture, the environment, defense, medical diagnostics, food and product inspection, and mineral exploration. It will be an essential resource for those seeking to deepen their understanding of how hyperspectral image analysis can combine with computational intelligence techniques to solve specific tasks in different application fields from a multidisciplinary perspective.

Results of an Analysis of 2D Log Files of Recent Tournaments
by Prof. Dr. Thomas Gabel 16 May '23

16 May '23

Dear 2D Community! [Same text will be shared in Discord as well!] TL&DR; We analyzed the log files of major competitions during past years and found a degradation of the reliability of the hardware setup and its computational power provided to the teams. In particular, we observed that - starting in 2022 - many teams' players did frequently miss to send a command within 100ms. If you have any questions or remarks on this, please share them. Best regards, Thomas Gabel (on behalf of the FRA-UNIted team). =====FULL EXPLANATION===== ~~Assumptions~~ We assume that all teams do, in general, send at least one command to the soccer server each time step. By commands we refer to their (A) body-related commands (dash, kick, turn, catch, tackle) and their (B) other-parts-related commands (attentionto, turn_neck, say, change_view, pointto). It is standing to reason to assume that each player sends at least one of those commands to the server each time step. Moreover, most teams do indeed send one of the body-related commands (dash, kick, turn, catch, tackle) to the server each time step. ~~Definitions~~ If some agent does not send a command in one time step at all (neither from category (A) nor from category (B)), then usually something is wrong. In accordance to Ralf Berger from the first Soccer Simulation 2D Champion team ever (AT-Humboldt'97) we call this situation a HOLE. If some agent sends in one time step t more than one command, then usually something is very wrong (e.g. two dashes, or a dash and a turn). It usually means that this agent did not manage to send the first of the two commands within the 100ms of the previous time step t-1, i.e. it is being sent one step too late. Simultaneously, the agent sends the command of the current time step t. Thus, the server receives the command from the previous *and* the current time step in the same cycle. In accordance to Ralf Berger from the first Soccer Simulation 2D Champion team ever (AT-Humboldt'97) we call this situation a BLACK HOLE. ~~History~~ Holes and black holes are bad things for any agent. They used to be a big issue in the early days of soccer simulation 2D, when computational resources were scarce (e.g. the 12 processes of one team had to be run on just one or two single-core PC) as well as when the network connections needed for exchanging messages via UDP were not as reliable as they are today. While we believed that holes and black holes are a problem of another decade and they occur only very rarely or due to programming errors by some team nowadays, we observed their systematic return in competitions of the last and current year where, as far as we can tell, for the first times tournaments were run on 12 docker instances for each team and one for the rcssserver (in total 25 docker instances) entirely on one single machine (which, of course, is equipped with a sufficient amount of cores, e.g. 64 cores). ~~Methodology~~ We took the log files from the 2019, 2021 and 2022 world championships plus the very recent IranOpen 2023 tournament and analyzed the rcl files for the occurrence of holes and black holes. Our analysis tool and script are available on request. ~~Findings~~ In RoboCup 2019, there were no problems across all teams (with the exception of Ri-One which we think to be due to a team-internal problem). And a minor issue for YuShan2019 (with, however, less than 1 black hole in the course of two matches).

Each team must decide for itself whether this is intended, or acceptable, or bad behavior (so we assume that this large amount of holes is fine for the two team mentioned). Anyways, black holes are always most likely a bad thing for any team. If we count the total number of black holes for RoboCup 2021, we see that there was just a single black hole in the entire tournament (by HELIOS2021). Unfortunately, things changed in RoboCup 2022 where, for the first time, a docker-based environment was used. Unfortunately, the entirety of logs for that year can no longer be found on archive.robocup.info which is why our analysis focuses only on the fraction of logs that we downloaded during the tournament: Team Name, #matches, #holesTotal, #blackholesTotal, holesPerMatch, blackHolesPerMatch --------------------------------------------------------------------------- MT2022, 32, 52, 12, 1.625, 0.375 YuShan2022, 36, 416, 248, 11.555555, 6.888889 Alice2D, 32, 73671, 7, 2302.2188, 0.21875 ITAndroids, 34, 53, 6, 1.5588236, 0.1764706 Oxsy, 32, 70, 19, 2.1875, 0.59375 HELIOS2022, 31, 21, 12, 0.67741936, 0.38709676 RoboCIn, 34, 51, 16, 1.5, 0.47058824 Hfutengine2022, 38, 129, 56, 3.3947368, 1.4736842 Tehran2D, 36, 72, 18, 2.0, 0.5 CYRUS, 33, 51, 17, 1.5454545, 0.5151515 FRA-UNIted, 32, 161, 139, 5.03125, 4.34375 Hades2D, 32, 59, 7, 1.84375, 0.21875 The summed number of black wholes has been increased to 557 in the entire tournament - a number which is certainly far beyond anything that is acceptable. Apparently, all teams were affected where YuShan2022 was affected most with almost 7 black holes per game on average. As a safety check, we ran our analysis also on a big part of the log files produced by the recent IranOpen 2023 tournament which was also held in a docker-based environment with each agent/coach running in its own docker instance, all on the same single machine. Team Name, #matches, #holesTotal, #blackholesTotal, holesPerMatch, blackHolesPerMatch --------------------------------------------------------------------------- YuShan2023, 15, 63, 32, 4.2, 2.1333334 FRA-UNIted, 22, 113, 100, 5.1363635, 4.5454545 Mcafee, 8, 26, 4, 3.25, 0.5 Mrl, 14, 361, 289, 25.785715, 20.642857 The8, 20, 54, 13, 2.7, 0.65 Robo2D, 7, 242, 131, 34.57143, 18.714285 Pyrus, 14, 50, 23, 3.5714285, 1.6428572 Apollo2d, 9, 0, 0, 0.0, 0.0 RoboCIn, 15, 11, 0, 0.73333335, 0.0 ThunderLeague, 12, 11, 0, 0.9166667, 0.0 Zina-AI, 17, 44, 21, 2.5882354, 1.2352941 R3CESBU, 4, 22, 0, 5.5, 0.0 football-iauk, 9, 0, 0, 0.0, 0.0 EMPEROR, 7, 46, 14, 6.571429, 2.0 This time, some teams where affected even more severely, e.g. Mrl or Robo2D each with nearly 20 black holes per match on average. The negative impact on our own team was nearly the same in RoboCup 2022 and IranOpen 2023 with ca. 4.5 black holes per match. Of course, one might argue that the prevention of black holes is in the responsibility of each team itself. However, we strongly belief that the wide re-occurrence of black holes from 2022 onward points to some inherent problem with the way the simulation environment has been set up recently. As an additional safety check (for our team, FRA-UNIted, only), we also ran a large amount of matches with our team against various opponents on standard PCs (without docker or other virtualizations) using exactly the same version as we employed recently in the IranOpen 2023 tournament. We observed no black hole at all. ~~Details~~ Our analysis reveals that often the entire simulation seems to be "frozen" for one time step or for time steps that are near to one another. We can only speculate about the reasons; one such speculation would be that other docker environments (of another match that is running in parallel on the same machine) are initialized at match start-up/clean-up and this increases the overall system load for a few seconds. Please, see the detail analysis of the exemplary match between RoboC2 and YuShan2023 during the recent IranOpen 2023 tournament in which these teams were affected by 51 and 32 black holes, respectively. All these black holes occur between time steps 600 and 800. In some time steps many players are affected simultaneously (see below: Appendix). ~~Conclusion~~ The hardware, virtualization, and software setup for upcoming tournaments must be very critically questioned in order to allow for fair competitions. =====Appendix===== Detail analysis of one exemplary match from IranOpen 2023: Program arguments: ./GGHv1WP_server1_Robo2D_1-vs-YuShan2023_4.rcl I

Researchers are invited to submit their demonstrations independently of whether they participate in the RoboCup competitions, symposium or have a RoboCup team. Contributions will be evaluated for scientific and technical excellence. Topics of Interest --------------------------------------- We welcome demonstrations containing new ideas, concepts, practical studies, and experiment demonstrations relevant to the field of Humanoid Robotics. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: * Components, joints and mechanics; * Soft robotics; * Anthropomorphic vs. non-anthropomorphic; * Walking, running, jumping and other humanoid locomotion; * Adaptability and scalability; * Sensors and perception; * Control and stability; * Dealing with falling; * Reflexes and learning; * Energy supply and efficiency; * Robot design and robotic kits; * Virtual robots and simulation; * Benchmarking; * Bipedal robots applied to real problems; * Education with and for humanoid robots. Procedure --------------------------------------- The Humanoid Research Demonstration will take place in one or several sessions and participating teams are asked to show a demonstration of the system live in Bordeaux or stream their demonstration from their lab during the session. As a back-up solution, each team needs to provide a video demonstration prior to the beginning of the tournament. If the demonstration is performed in Bordeaux, the Humanoid League will provide a humanoid league soccer playing field for the demonstration. However, the members of the Technical Committee of the Humanoid League understand that for some demonstrations this setup may not be ideal and will try to accommodate all teams. If a team requires other arrangements for the demonstration, it must submit a request to the Technical Committee at least 3 months before the competition to allow sufficient time for alternative arrangements. Application --------------------------------------- We invite teams to apply to participate in the Humanoid Research Demonstration by submitting the following material: Demonstration Data * Demonstration title; * URL of the group’s home page; * Name of the contact person; * E-mail address of the contact person; * Postal address of the contact person. Demonstration Video The first part of the material is a video of your robot or robotic part demonstrating its skills or a brief overview of the software demonstration if your demonstration does not involve a physical embodiment. The video must be supplied as a link to it via YouTube. The maximum duration of the video is 3 minutes. The proponent is responsible to ensure that the video adheres to YouTube’s TOS (especially in regard to music copyright) to prevent the video from being blocked for the reviewers. Hardware Specification If the demonstration includes any type of hardware to be showcased, a one-page specification (PDF) for each different type of humanoid type robot/mechanism used that includes the following: * Robot/mechanism picture; * Robot/mechanism name; * Size of the humanoid type robot/mechanism; * Weight of the robot/mechanism; * Robots/mechanisms joint specification; * Type of sensors used (incl. type of camera(s)); * Computing unit(s); * Other specifications Short paper A short paper describing the robot, robot part of software and its task and required environment, limited to four (4) pages including text, references, tables, and figures. The short paper must follow the LNCS format which can be downloaded from http://www.springer.com/computer/lncs?SGWID=0-164-6-793341-0. Please pay special attention to the “Author guidelines” that you’ll be able to find there. Plagiarism ======================================= Plagiarism, loosely the unattributed use of other peoples' words, code, and ideas is not tolerated in the RoboCup community. See the point “Publishing Ethics” at https://www.springer.com/gp/computer-science/lncs/conference-proceedings-gu… for a more detailed description. The teams and team members that plagiarize other peoples' work and present it as their own will be disqualified. For a first offense, the team and team members will be banned from RoboCup competition for two years (usually the current and next year). Harsher penalties will be applied to repeat offenders or extremely serious cases of plagiarism. A team may be disqualified at any time for plagiarism, even after the competition has started. RoboCup will not reimburse teams for any expenses related to their disqualification. Online Submission ======================================= All qualification material must be submitted online at https://submission.robocuphumanoid.com <https://ddec1-0-en-ctp.trendmicro.com:443/wis/clicktime/v1/query?url=https%…> Important Dates ======================================= Humanoid Research Demonstration * Submission system open: November 20th, 2022 * Submission deadline: April 2nd, 2023 Publication ======================================= Please note that after the announcement of the qualified teams the qualified teams submitted material will be made publicly available on the Humanoid League website. Teams applying for participation, therefore, implicitly grant the right of publication of their qualification material to the Humanoid League. Visa Process ======================================= If you are a citizen of a country that needs a Visa for traveling to France, please start the VISA process as soon as you receive your notification of qualification. If you are not sure if you're eligible for a VISA-exempt, please consult the official website of the France government for information, at https://france-visas.gouv.fr/en/web/france-visas/welcome-page.
