最近的工作表明，与基督徒和印度教徒相比，在提示穆斯林的提示时，GPT-3模型有偏见的态度。两次预注册的复制尝试，一次是精确的和一个近似的尝试，在最近的GPT-3的最新指示系列版本中发现了最弱的偏差，以消除有偏见和有毒的输出。很少观察到暴力完成。然而，其他预注册的实验表明，在提示中使用与宗教相关的通用名称的暴力完成率显着增加，这也揭示了对穆斯林的二阶偏见。来自非暴力领域的穆斯林名人的名字导致了相对较少的暴力完成，这表明获得个性化信息可以使该模型无法使用刻板印象。尽管如此，内容分析揭示了宗教特定的暴力主题，其中包含高度冒犯性思想，无论及时格式如何。我们的结果表明，有必要对大语言模型进行额外的歧义，以解决高阶模式和关联。

Recently, Smart Video Surveillance (SVS) systems have been receiving more attention among scholars and developers as a substitute for the current passive surveillance systems. These systems are used to make the policing and monitoring systems more efficient and improve public safety. However, the nature of these systems in monitoring the public's daily activities brings different ethical challenges. There are different approaches for addressing privacy issues in implementing the SVS. In this paper, we are focusing on the role of design considering ethical and privacy challenges in SVS. Reviewing four policy protection regulations that generate an overview of best practices for privacy protection, we argue that ethical and privacy concerns could be addressed through four lenses: algorithm, system, model, and data. As an case study, we describe our proposed system and illustrate how our system can create a baseline for designing a privacy perseverance system to deliver safety to society. We used several Artificial Intelligence algorithms, such as object detection, single and multi camera re-identification, action recognition, and anomaly detection, to provide a basic functional system. We also use cloud-native services to implement a smartphone application in order to deliver the outputs to the end users.

A recent explosion of research focuses on developing methods and tools for building fair predictive models. However, most of this work relies on the assumption that the training and testing data are representative of the target population on which the model will be deployed. However, real-world training data often suffer from selection bias and are not representative of the target population for many reasons, including the cost and feasibility of collecting and labeling data, historical discrimination, and individual biases. In this paper, we introduce a new framework for certifying and ensuring the fairness of predictive models trained on biased data. We take inspiration from query answering over incomplete and inconsistent databases to present and formalize the problem of consistent range approximation (CRA) of answers to queries about aggregate information for the target population. We aim to leverage background knowledge about the data collection process, biased data, and limited or no auxiliary data sources to compute a range of answers for aggregate queries over the target population that are consistent with available information. We then develop methods that use CRA of such aggregate queries to build predictive models that are certifiably fair on the target population even when no external information about that population is available during training. We evaluate our methods on real data and demonstrate improvements over state of the art. Significantly, we show that enforcing fairness using our methods can lead to predictive models that are not only fair, but more accurate on the target population.

In recent years, we have seen a significant interest in data-driven deep learning approaches for video anomaly detection, where an algorithm must determine if specific frames of a video contain abnormal behaviors. However, video anomaly detection is particularly context-specific, and the availability of representative datasets heavily limits real-world accuracy. Additionally, the metrics currently reported by most state-of-the-art methods often do not reflect how well the model will perform in real-world scenarios. In this article, we present the Charlotte Anomaly Dataset (CHAD). CHAD is a high-resolution, multi-camera anomaly dataset in a commercial parking lot setting. In addition to frame-level anomaly labels, CHAD is the first anomaly dataset to include bounding box, identity, and pose annotations for each actor. This is especially beneficial for skeleton-based anomaly detection, which is useful for its lower computational demand in real-world settings. CHAD is also the first anomaly dataset to contain multiple views of the same scene. With four camera views and over 1.15 million frames, CHAD is the largest fully annotated anomaly detection dataset including person annotations, collected from continuous video streams from stationary cameras for smart video surveillance applications. To demonstrate the efficacy of CHAD for training and evaluation, we benchmark two state-of-the-art skeleton-based anomaly detection algorithms on CHAD and provide comprehensive analysis, including both quantitative results and qualitative examination.

Gaussian Mixture Models (GMM) are one of the most potent parametric density estimators based on the kernel model that finds application in many scientific domains. In recent years, with the dramatic enlargement of data sources, typical machine learning algorithms, e.g. Expectation Maximization (EM), encounters difficulty with high-dimensional and streaming data. Moreover, complicated densities often demand a large number of Gaussian components. This paper proposes a fast online parameter estimation algorithm for GMM by using first-order stochastic optimization. This approach provides a framework to cope with the challenges of GMM when faced with high-dimensional streaming data and complex densities by leveraging the flexibly-tied factorization of the covariance matrix. A new stochastic Manifold optimization algorithm that preserves the orthogonality is introduced and used along with the well-known Euclidean space numerical optimization. Numerous empirical results on both synthetic and real datasets justify the effectiveness of our proposed stochastic method over EM-based methods in the sense of better-converged maximum for likelihood function, fewer number of needed epochs for convergence, and less time consumption per epoch.

In atomistic simulations of solids, ability to classify crystal phases and lattice defects in the presence of thermal fluctuations is essential for gaining deeper insights into the simulated dynamics. The need for accurate and efficient characterization methods is especially acute in presently emerging large-scale simulations of multi-phase systems far from equilibrium. Taking the perspective that delineating order and disorder features from ubiquitous thermal vibrations is akin to extracting signal from noise, we consider classification of ordered phases and identification of disordered crystal defects to be fundamentally the same problem and address them both with a unified approach: a denoising score function that removes thermal noise and recovers any underlying crystalline order-disorder. Built on a rotationally equivariant graph neural network (NequIP), the denoiser was trained entirely with synthetically noised structures and requires no simulation data during training. To demonstrate its denoising capabilities, the denoiser is shown to effectively remove thermal vibrations of BCC, FCC, and HCP crystal structures without impacting the underlying disordered defects, including point defects, dislocations, grain boundaries, and liquid disorder. In particular the denoiser was applied to two relatively complex MD simulations that present practical challenges: a Cu solidification trajectory involving a polymorphic nucleus, and a trajectory of BCC Ta undergoing plastic deformation resulting in dislocation networks and point defect clusters. In both cases the denoiser facilitates or trivializes the subsequent characterization of the order-disorder features. Lastly, we outline future work to extend our denoising model to more complex crystal structures and to multi-element systems.

People capture photos and videos to relive and share memories of personal significance. Recently, media montages (stories) have become a popular mode of sharing these memories due to their intuitive and powerful storytelling capabilities. However, creating such montages usually involves a lot of manual searches, clicks, and selections that are time-consuming and cumbersome, adversely affecting user experiences. To alleviate this, we propose task-oriented dialogs for montage creation as a novel interactive tool to seamlessly search, compile, and edit montages from a media collection. To the best of our knowledge, our work is the first to leverage multi-turn conversations for such a challenging application, extending the previous literature studying simple media retrieval tasks. We collect a new dataset C3 (Conversational Content Creation), comprising 10k dialogs conditioned on media montages simulated from a large media collection. We take a simulate-and-paraphrase approach to collect these dialogs to be both cost and time efficient, while drawing from natural language distribution. Our analysis and benchmarking of state-of-the-art language models showcase the multimodal challenges present in the dataset. Lastly, we present a real-world mobile demo application that shows the feasibility of the proposed work in real-world applications. Our code and data will be made publicly available.

当预测不久的将来的环境中的要素状态时，Endley情况意识模型的最高级别称为投影。在网络安全状况的意识中，对高级持续威胁（APT）的投影需要预测APT的下一步。威胁正在不断变化，变得越来越复杂。由于受监督和无监督的学习方法需要APT数据集​​来投影APT的下一步，因此他们无法识别未知的APT威胁。在强化学习方法中，代理与环境相互作用，因此它可能会投射出已知和未知APT的下一步。到目前为止，尚未使用强化学习来计划APTS的下一步。在强化学习中，代理商使用先前的状态和行动来近似当前状态的最佳动作。当状态和行动的数量丰富时，代理人采用神经网络，该网络被称为深度学习来近似每个州的最佳动作。在本文中，我们提出了一个深厚的加固学习系统，以预测APT的下一步。随着攻击步骤之间的某种关系，我们采用长期短期记忆（LSTM）方法来近似每个状态的最佳动作。在我们提出的系统中，根据当前情况，我们将投影APT威胁的下一步。
