凭借其恶劣天气条件和测量速度的能力，雷达传感器已经成为汽车景观的一部分超过二十年的鲁棒性。最近的高清晰度（HD）成像雷达的进展使角分辨率低于程度，从而接近激光扫描性能。然而，数据量为HD雷达提供和计算成本来估计角度位置仍然是一个挑战。在本文中，我们提出了一种新颖的高清雷达传感模型FFT-RADNET，其消除了计算范围 - 方位角多普勒3D张量的开销，从而从范围多普勒频谱恢复角度。 FFT-RADNET培训均以检测车辆和分段免费驾驶空间。在两个任务中，它与最新的基于雷达的模型竞争，同时需要更少的计算和内存。此外，我们在各种环境（城市街道，公路，农村路）中，从同步汽车级传感器（相机，激光，高清雷达）收集和注释了2小时的原始数据。这个独特的数据集，“雷达，lidar等人”的inc-命名的radial是在https://github.com/valeoai/radial上获得的。

We address the problem of unsupervised domain adaptation when the source domain differs from the target domain because of a shift in the distribution of a latent subgroup. When this subgroup confounds all observed data, neither covariate shift nor label shift assumptions apply. We show that the optimal target predictor can be non-parametrically identified with the help of concept and proxy variables available only in the source domain, and unlabeled data from the target. The identification results are constructive, immediately suggesting an algorithm for estimating the optimal predictor in the target. For continuous observations, when this algorithm becomes impractical, we propose a latent variable model specific to the data generation process at hand. We show how the approach degrades as the size of the shift changes, and verify that it outperforms both covariate and label shift adjustment.

We introduce the Conditional Independence Regression CovariancE (CIRCE), a measure of conditional independence for multivariate continuous-valued variables. CIRCE applies as a regularizer in settings where we wish to learn neural features $\varphi(X)$ of data $X$ to estimate a target $Y$, while being conditionally independent of a distractor $Z$ given $Y$. Both $Z$ and $Y$ are assumed to be continuous-valued but relatively low dimensional, whereas $X$ and its features may be complex and high dimensional. Relevant settings include domain-invariant learning, fairness, and causal learning. The procedure requires just a single ridge regression from $Y$ to kernelized features of $Z$, which can be done in advance. It is then only necessary to enforce independence of $\varphi(X)$ from residuals of this regression, which is possible with attractive estimation properties and consistency guarantees. By contrast, earlier measures of conditional feature dependence require multiple regressions for each step of feature learning, resulting in more severe bias and variance, and greater computational cost. When sufficiently rich features are used, we establish that CIRCE is zero if and only if $\varphi(X) \perp \!\!\! \perp Z \mid Y$. In experiments, we show superior performance to previous methods on challenging benchmarks, including learning conditionally invariant image features.

The detection and prevention of illegal fishing is critical to maintaining a healthy and functional ecosystem. Recent research on ship detection in satellite imagery has focused exclusively on performance improvements, disregarding detection efficiency. However, the speed and compute cost of vessel detection are essential for a timely intervention to prevent illegal fishing. Therefore, we investigated optimization methods that lower detection time and cost with minimal performance loss. We trained an object detection model based on a convolutional neural network (CNN) using a dataset of satellite images. Then, we designed two efficiency optimizations that can be applied to the base CNN or any other base model. The optimizations consist of a fast, cheap classification model and a statistical algorithm. The integration of the optimizations with the object detection model leads to a trade-off between speed and performance. We studied the trade-off using metrics that give different weight to execution time and performance. We show that by using a classification model the average precision of the detection model can be approximated to 99.5% in 44% of the time or to 92.7% in 25% of the time.

Quantifying the deviation of a probability distribution is challenging when the target distribution is defined by a density with an intractable normalizing constant. The kernel Stein discrepancy (KSD) was proposed to address this problem and has been applied to various tasks including diagnosing approximate MCMC samplers and goodness-of-fit testing for unnormalized statistical models. This article investigates a convergence control property of the diffusion kernel Stein discrepancy (DKSD), an instance of the KSD proposed by Barp et al. (2019). We extend the result of Gorham and Mackey (2017), which showed that the KSD controls the bounded-Lipschitz metric, to functions of polynomial growth. Specifically, we prove that the DKSD controls the integral probability metric defined by a class of pseudo-Lipschitz functions, a polynomial generalization of Lipschitz functions. We also provide practical sufficient conditions on the reproducing kernel for the stated property to hold. In particular, we show that the DKSD detects non-convergence in moments with an appropriate kernel.

Can continuous diffusion models bring the same performance breakthrough on natural language they did for image generation? To circumvent the discrete nature of text data, we can simply project tokens in a continuous space of embeddings, as is standard in language modeling. We propose Self-conditioned Embedding Diffusion, a continuous diffusion mechanism that operates on token embeddings and allows to learn flexible and scalable diffusion models for both conditional and unconditional text generation. Through qualitative and quantitative evaluation, we show that our text diffusion models generate samples comparable with those produced by standard autoregressive language models - while being in theory more efficient on accelerator hardware at inference time. Our work paves the way for scaling up diffusion models for text, similarly to autoregressive models, and for improving performance with recent refinements to continuous diffusion.

当歌曲创作或演奏时，歌手/词曲作者通常会出现通过它表达感受或情感的意图。对于人类而言，将音乐作品或表演中的情感与观众的主观感知相匹配可能会非常具有挑战性。幸运的是，此问题的机器学习方法更简单。通常，它需要一个数据集，从该数据集中提取音频功能以将此信息呈现给数据驱动的模型，从而又将训练以预测给定歌曲与目标情绪匹配的概率是什么。在本文中，我们研究了最近出版物中最常见的功能和模型来解决此问题，揭示了哪些最适合在无伴奏歌曲中识别情感。

机器人的感知目前处于在有效的潜在空间中运行的现代方法与数学建立的经典方法之间的跨道路，并提供了可解释的，可信赖的结果。在本文中，我们引入了卷积的贝叶斯内核推理（Convbki）层，该层在可分离的卷积层中明确执行贝叶斯推断，以同时提高效率，同时保持可靠性。我们将层应用于3D语义映射的任务，在该任务中，我们可以实时学习激光雷达传感器信息的语义几何概率分布。我们根据KITTI数据集的最新语义映射算法评估我们的网络，并通过类似的语义结果证明了延迟的提高。

可见的红外人员重新识别（REID）旨在认识到RGB和IR摄像机网络中的同一个人。一些深度学习（DL）模型已直接纳入了两种模式，以在联合表示空间中区分人。但是，由于RGB和IR模式之间数据分布的较大域转移，因此这个跨模式的REID问题仍然具有挑战性。 ％本文引入了一种新的方法，用于创建中间虚拟域，该域在训练过程中充当两个主要领域（即RGB和IR模式）之间的桥梁。该中间域被视为在测试时间无法获得的特权信息（PI），并允许将此跨模式匹配任务制定为在特权信息（LUPI）下学习的问题。我们设计了一种新方法，以在可见的和红外域之间生成图像，这些方法提供了其他信息，以通过中间域的适应来训练深层REID模型。特别是，通过在训练过程中采用无色和多步三重态损失目标，我们的方法提供了通用的特征表示空间，这些空间对大型可见的红外域移动具有牢固的功能。 ％关于挑战性可见红外REID数据集的实验结果表明，我们提出的方法始终提高匹配的准确性，而在测试时没有任何计算开销。该代码可在：\ href {https://github.com/alehdaghi/cross-modal-re-id-iid-via-lupi} {https://github.com/alehdaghi/alehdaghi/cross-modal-re-re-id-i-id--i- id-i--i- id-id-i--i--via-lupi} { Via-Lupi}

增强学习（RL）研究领域非常活跃，并具有重要的新贡献；特别是考虑到深RL（DRL）的新兴领域。但是，仍然需要解决许多科学和技术挑战，其中我们可以提及抽象行动的能力或在稀疏回报环境中探索环境的难以通过内在动机（IM）来解决的。我们建议通过基于信息理论的新分类法调查这些研究工作：我们在计算上重新审视了惊喜，新颖性和技能学习的概念。这使我们能够确定方法的优势和缺点，并展示当前的研究前景。我们的分析表明，新颖性和惊喜可以帮助建立可转移技能的层次结构，从而进一步抽象环境并使勘探过程更加健壮。
