Our goal is to reconstruct tomographic images with few measurements and a low signal-to-noise ratio. In clinical imaging, this helps to improve patient comfort and reduce radiation exposure. As quantum computing advances, we propose to use an adiabatic quantum computer and associated hybrid methods to solve the reconstruction problem. Tomographic reconstruction is an ill-posed inverse problem. We test our reconstruction technique for image size, noise content, and underdetermination of the measured projection data. We then present the reconstructed binary and integer-valued images of up to 32 by 32 pixels. The demonstrated method competes with traditional reconstruction algorithms and is superior in terms of robustness to noise and reconstructions from few projections. We postulate that hybrid quantum computing will soon reach maturity for real applications in tomographic reconstruction. Finally, we point out the current limitations regarding the problem size and interpretability of the algorithm.

The evolution of wireless communications into 6G and beyond is expected to rely on new machine learning (ML)-based capabilities. These can enable proactive decisions and actions from wireless-network components to sustain quality-of-service (QoS) and user experience. Moreover, new use cases in the area of vehicular and industrial communications will emerge. Specifically in the area of vehicle communication, vehicle-to-everything (V2X) schemes will benefit strongly from such advances. With this in mind, we have conducted a detailed measurement campaign with the purpose of enabling a plethora of diverse ML-based studies. The resulting datasets offer GPS-located wireless measurements across diverse urban environments for both cellular (with two different operators) and sidelink radio access technologies, thus enabling a variety of different studies towards V2X. The datasets are labeled and sampled with a high time resolution. Furthermore, we make the data publicly available with all the necessary information to support the on-boarding of new researchers. We provide an initial analysis of the data showing some of the challenges that ML needs to overcome and the features that ML can leverage, as well as some hints at potential research studies.

Optimization equips engineers and scientists in a variety of fields with the ability to transcribe their problems into a generic formulation and receive optimal solutions with relative ease. Industries ranging from aerospace to robotics continue to benefit from advancements in optimization theory and the associated algorithmic developments. Nowadays, optimization is used in real time on autonomous systems acting in safety critical situations, such as self-driving vehicles. It has become increasingly more important to produce robust solutions by incorporating uncertainty into optimization programs. This paper provides a short survey about the state of the art in optimization under uncertainty. The paper begins with a brief overview of the main classes of optimization without uncertainty. The rest of the paper focuses on the different methods for handling both aleatoric and epistemic uncertainty. Many of the applications discussed in this paper are within the domain of control. The goal of this survey paper is to briefly touch upon the state of the art in a variety of different methods and refer the reader to other literature for more in-depth treatments of the topics discussed here.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is having a tremendous impact across most areas of science. Applications of AI in healthcare have the potential to improve our ability to detect, diagnose, prognose, and intervene on human disease. For AI models to be used clinically, they need to be made safe, reproducible and robust, and the underlying software framework must be aware of the particularities (e.g. geometry, physiology, physics) of medical data being processed. This work introduces MONAI, a freely available, community-supported, and consortium-led PyTorch-based framework for deep learning in healthcare. MONAI extends PyTorch to support medical data, with a particular focus on imaging, and provide purpose-specific AI model architectures, transformations and utilities that streamline the development and deployment of medical AI models. MONAI follows best practices for software-development, providing an easy-to-use, robust, well-documented, and well-tested software framework. MONAI preserves the simple, additive, and compositional approach of its underlying PyTorch libraries. MONAI is being used by and receiving contributions from research, clinical and industrial teams from around the world, who are pursuing applications spanning nearly every aspect of healthcare.

在科学计算的许多领域越来越流行的人工神经网络（ANN）的大量使用迅速增加了现代高性能计算系统的能源消耗。新型的神经形态范式提供了一种吸引人的替代方案，它直接在硬件中实施了ANN。但是，对于科学计算中用例使用ANN在神经形态硬件上运行ANN的实际好处知之甚少。在这里，我们提出了一种方法，用于测量使用常规硬件的ANN来计算推理任务的时间。此外，我们为这些任务设计了一个体系结构，并根据最先进的模拟内存计算（AIMC）平台估算了相同的指标，这是神经形态计算中的关键范例之一。在二维凝结物质系统中的量子多体物理学中的用例比较两种方法，并在粒子物理学中大型强子对撞机上以40 MHz的速率以40 MHz的速率进行异常检测。我们发现，与传统硬件相比，AIMC最多可以达到一个较短的计算时间，最高三个数量级的能源成本。这表明使用神经形态硬件进行更快，更可持续的科学计算的潜力。

我们日常生活中的深度学习是普遍存在的，包括自驾车，虚拟助理，社交网络服务，医疗服务，面部识别等，但是深度神经网络在训练和推理期间需要大量计算资源。该机器学习界主要集中在模型级优化（如深度学习模型的架构压缩），而系统社区则专注于实施级别优化。在其间，在算术界中提出了各种算术级优化技术。本文在模型，算术和实施级技术方面提供了关于资源有效的深度学习技术的调查，并确定了三种不同级别技术的资源有效的深度学习技术的研究差距。我们的调查基于我们的资源效率度量定义，阐明了较低级别技术的影响，并探讨了资源有效的深度学习研究的未来趋势。

本文提出了过渡动作张量，一种数据驱动的框架，它在运动数据集之外创建新颖和物理准确的转换。它使模拟字符能够有效且强大地采用新的运动技能而无需修改现有问题。考虑到几种专门从事不同运动的物理模拟的控制器，张量用作它们之间的过渡的时间指南。通过查询最佳拟合用户定义的偏好的转换的Tensor，我们可以创建一个能够产生新颖的转换和解决可能需要多个动作的复杂任务的统一控制器。我们在Quadrupeds和Biped上应用框架，对转换质量进行定量和定性评估，并在遵循用户控制指令时展示其解决复杂运动计划问题的能力。

在过去十年中，已经开发出新的深度学习（DL）算法，工作负载和硬件来解决各种问题。尽管工作量和硬件生态系统的进步，DL系统的编程方法是停滞不前的。 DL工作负载从DL库中的高度优化，特定于平台和不灵活的内核，或者在新颖的操作员的情况下，通过具有强大性能的DL框架基元建立参考实现。这项工作介绍了Tensor加工基元（TPP），一个编程抽象，用于高效的DL工作负载的高效，便携式实现。 TPPS定义了一组紧凑而多才多艺的2D张镜操作员（或虚拟张量ISA），随后可以用作构建块，以在高维张量上构建复杂的运算符。 TPP规范是平台 - 不可行的，因此通过TPPS表示的代码是便携式的，而TPP实现是高度优化的，并且特定于平台。我们展示了我们使用独立内核和端到端DL＆HPC工作负载完全通过TPPS表达的方法的效力和生存性，这在多个平台上优于最先进的实现。

Variational inference uses optimization, rather than integration, to approximate the marginal likelihood, and thereby the posterior, in a Bayesian model. Thanks to advances in computational scalability made in the last decade, variational inference is now the preferred choice for many high-dimensional models and large datasets. This tutorial introduces variational inference from the parametric perspective that dominates these recent developments, in contrast to the mean-field perspective commonly found in other introductory texts.
