Introduction to Apache Spark Developer TrainingCloudera, Inc.
Apache Spark is a next-generation processing engine optimized for speed, ease of use, and advanced analytics well beyond batch. The Spark framework supports streaming data and complex, iterative algorithms, enabling applications to run 100x faster than traditional MapReduce programs. With Spark, developers can write sophisticated parallel applications for faster business decisions and better user outcomes, applied to a wide variety of architectures and industries.
Learn What Apache Spark is and how it compares to Hadoop MapReduce, How to filter, map, reduce, and save Resilient Distributed Datasets (RDDs), Who is best suited to attend the course and what prior knowledge you should have, and the benefits of building Spark applications as part of an enterprise data hub.
Streaming Analytics with Spark, Kafka, Cassandra and AkkaHelena Edelson
This talk will address how a new architecture is emerging for analytics, based on Spark, Mesos, Akka, Cassandra and Kafka (SMACK). Popular architecture like Lambda separate layers of computation and delivery and require many technologies which have overlapping functionality. Some of this results in duplicated code, untyped processes, or high operational overhead, let alone the cost (i.e. ETL). I will discuss the problem domain and what is needed in terms of strategies, architecture and application design and code to begin leveraging simpler data flows. We will cover how the particular set of technologies addresses common requirements and how collaboratively they work together to enrich and reinforce each other.

概要：リソース効率に優れた特徴点マッチングのための軽量なアーキテクチャ「XFeat（Accelerated Features）」を提案します。手法は、局所的な特徴点の検出、抽出、マッチングのための畳み込みニューラルネットワークの基本的な設計を再検討します。特に、リソースが限られたデバイス向けに迅速かつ堅牢なアルゴリズムが必要とされるため、解像度を可能な限り高く保ちながら、ネットワークのチャネル数を制限します。さらに、スパース下でのマッチングを選択できる設計となっており、ナビゲーションやARなどのアプリケーションに適しています。XFeatは、高速かつ同等以上の精度を実現し、一般的なラップトップのCPU上でリアルタイムで動作します。
セル生産方式におけるロボットの活用には様々な問題があるが，その一つとして 3 体以上の物体の組み立てが挙げられる．一般に，複数物体を同時に組み立てる際は，対象の部品をそれぞれロボットアームまたは治具でそれぞれ独立に保持することで組み立てを遂行すると考えられる．ただし，この方法ではロボットアームや治具を部品数と同じ数だけ必要とし，部品数が多いほどコスト面や設置スペースの関係で無駄が多くなる．この課題に対して音𣷓らは組み立て対象物に働く接触力等の解析により，治具等で固定されていない対象物が組み立て作業中に運動しにくい状態となる条件を求めた．すなわち，環境中の非把持対象物のロバスト性を考慮して，組み立て作業条件を検討している．本研究ではこの方策に基づいて，複数物体の組み立て作業を単腕マニピュレータで実行することを目的とする．このとき，対象物のロバスト性を考慮することで，仮組状態の複数物体を同時に扱う手法を提案する．作業対象としてパイプジョイントの組み立てを挙げ，簡易な道具を用いることで単腕マニピュレータで複数物体を同時に把持できることを示す．さらに，作業成功率の向上のために RGB-D カメラを用いた物体の位置検出に基づくロボット制御及び動作計画を実装する．
This paper discusses assembly operations using a single manipulator and a parallel gripper to simultaneously
grasp multiple objects and hold the group of temporarily assembled objects. Multiple robots and jigs generally operate
assembly tasks by constraining the target objects mechanically or geometrically to prevent them from moving. It is
necessary to analyze the physical interaction between the objects for such constraints to achieve the tasks with a single
gripper. In this paper, we focus on assembling pipe joints as an example and discuss constraining the motion of the
objects. Our demonstration shows that a simple tool can facilitate holding multiple objects with a single gripper.
