With most technical fields, there exists a delay between fundamental academic research and practical industrial uptake. Whilst some sciences have robust and well-established processes for commercialisation, such as the pharmaceutical practice of regimented drug trials, other fields face transitory periods in which fundamental academic advancements diffuse gradually into the space of commerce and industry. For the still relatively young field of Automated/Autonomous Machine Learning (AutoML/AutonoML), that transitory period is under way, spurred on by a burgeoning interest from broader society. Yet, to date, little research has been undertaken to assess the current state of this dissemination and its uptake. Thus, this review makes two primary contributions to knowledge around this topic. Firstly, it provides the most up-to-date and comprehensive survey of existing AutoML tools, both open-source and commercial. Secondly, it motivates and outlines a framework for assessing whether an AutoML solution designed for real-world application is 'performant'; this framework extends beyond the limitations of typical academic criteria, considering a variety of stakeholder needs and the human-computer interactions required to service them. Thus, additionally supported by an extensive assessment and comparison of academic and commercial case-studies, this review evaluates mainstream engagement with AutoML in the early 2020s, identifying obstacles and opportunities for accelerating future uptake.

自动化的机器学习(AUTOML)过程可能需要通过不仅机器学习(ML)组件及其超参数的复杂配置空间进行搜索,还需要将它们组合在一起,即形成ML管道。如果该管道配置空间过大,那么固定时间预算可实现的优化效率和模型精度可实现。一个关键的研究问题是,通过利用其历史表现来完成各种ML任务(即元知识),避免对ML管道的不良评估是否可能既可能又实用。以前的经验以分类器/回归器准确性排名的形式来自(1)(1)在历史自动运行期间进行的大量但无尽的管道评估数量,即“机会性”元知识,或(2)全面的交叉 - 通过默认超参数(即“系统”的元知识,对分类器/回归器的验证评估。使用AUTOWEKA4MCPS软件包进行了许多实验,表明(1)机会性/系统的元知识可以改善ML的结果,通常与元知识的相关性以及(2)配置空间扣除在不太保守的情况下是最佳的(2)也不是激进的。但是,元知识的效用和影响急性取决于其发电和剥削的许多方面,并保证了广泛的分析;这些通常在汽车和元学习文献中被忽视/不足。特别是,我们观察到对数据集的“挑战”的强烈敏感性,即选择预测因子的特异性是否会导致性能明显更好。最终,确定这样定义的“困难”数据集对于生成信息丰富的元知识基础和理解最佳搜索空间降低策略至关重要。

深入学习(DL)已被证明是在不同环境中开发模型的高效方法,包括视觉感知,语音识别和机器翻译。但是,用于施加DL的端到端过程并不是微不足道的。它需要努力解决问题配方和背景理解,数据工程,模型开发,部署,连续监控和维护等。此外,就知识和相互作用而言,这些步骤中的每一个通常严重依赖于人类,这阻碍了DL的进一步进步和民主化。因此,为了回应这些问题,在过去几年中出现了一个新的领域:自动化深度学习(Autodl)。这一努力寻求最大限度地减少人类参与的需求,并以其在神经结构搜索(NAS)的成就而闻名,这是一项是几次调查的焦点的主题。说明,NAS不是全部和最终的Autodl。因此,本综述采用总体视角,检查整个原型DL工作流程的自动化研究努力。在此过程中,这项工作还提出了一套全面的十个标准,可以评估各个出版物和更广泛的研究领域的现有工作。这些标准是:新奇,解决方案质量,效率,稳定性,可解释性,再现性,工程质量,可扩展性,概括性和生态友好性。因此,最终,本综述提供了2020年代初的AutoDL评估概述,识别未来进展的机会可能存在。

Partial differential equations (PDEs) are important tools to model physical systems, and including them into machine learning models is an important way of incorporating physical knowledge. Given any system of linear PDEs with constant coefficients, we propose a family of Gaussian process (GP) priors, which we call EPGP, such that all realizations are exact solutions of this system. We apply the Ehrenpreis-Palamodov fundamental principle, which works like a non-linear Fourier transform, to construct GP kernels mirroring standard spectral methods for GPs. Our approach can infer probable solutions of linear PDE systems from any data such as noisy measurements, or initial and boundary conditions. Constructing EPGP-priors is algorithmic, generally applicable, and comes with a sparse version (S-EPGP) that learns the relevant spectral frequencies and works better for big data sets. We demonstrate our approach on three families of systems of PDE, the heat equation, wave equation, and Maxwell's equations, where we improve upon the state of the art in computation time and precision, in some experiments by several orders of magnitude.

The unfolding of detector effects is crucial for the comparison of data to theory predictions. While traditional methods are limited to representing the data in a low number of dimensions, machine learning has enabled new unfolding techniques while retaining the full dimensionality. Generative networks like invertible neural networks~(INN) enable a probabilistic unfolding, which map individual events to their corresponding unfolded probability distribution. The accuracy of such methods is however limited by how well simulated training samples model the actual data that is unfolded. We introduce the iterative conditional INN~(IcINN) for unfolding that adjusts for deviations between simulated training samples and data. The IcINN unfolding is first validated on toy data and then applied to pseudo-data for the $pp \to Z \gamma \gamma$ process.

This paper describes the 5th edition of the Predicting Video Memorability Task as part of MediaEval2022. This year we have reorganised and simplified the task in order to lubricate a greater depth of inquiry. Similar to last year, two datasets are provided in order to facilitate generalisation, however, this year we have replaced the TRECVid2019 Video-to-Text dataset with the VideoMem dataset in order to remedy underlying data quality issues, and to prioritise short-term memorability prediction by elevating the Memento10k dataset as the primary dataset. Additionally, a fully fledged electroencephalography (EEG)-based prediction sub-task is introduced. In this paper, we outline the core facets of the task and its constituent sub-tasks; describing the datasets, evaluation metrics, and requirements for participant submissions.

The Predicting Media Memorability task in the MediaEval evaluation campaign has been running annually since 2018 and several different tasks and data sets have been used in this time. This has allowed us to compare the performance of many memorability prediction techniques on the same data and in a reproducible way and to refine and improve on those techniques. The resources created to compute media memorability are now being used by researchers well beyond the actual evaluation campaign. In this paper we present a summary of the task, including the collective lessons we have learned for the research community.

Model-based reinforcement learning (RL) methods are appealing in the offline setting because they allow an agent to reason about the consequences of actions without interacting with the environment. Prior methods learn a 1-step dynamics model, which predicts the next state given the current state and action. These models do not immediately tell the agent which actions to take, but must be integrated into a larger RL framework. Can we model the environment dynamics in a different way, such that the learned model does directly indicate the value of each action? In this paper, we propose Contrastive Value Learning (CVL), which learns an implicit, multi-step model of the environment dynamics. This model can be learned without access to reward functions, but nonetheless can be used to directly estimate the value of each action, without requiring any TD learning. Because this model represents the multi-step transitions implicitly, it avoids having to predict high-dimensional observations and thus scales to high-dimensional tasks. Our experiments demonstrate that CVL outperforms prior offline RL methods on complex continuous control benchmarks.

许多机器学习问题在表格域中使用数据。对抗性示例可能对这些应用尤其有害。然而,现有关于对抗鲁棒性的作品主要集中在图像和文本域中的机器学习模型。我们认为,由于表格数据和图像或文本之间的差异,现有的威胁模型不适合表格域。这些模型没有捕获该成本比不可识别更重要,也不能使对手可以将不同的价值归因于通过部署不同的对手示例获得的效用。我们表明,由于这些差异,用于图像的攻击和防御方法和文本无法直接应用于表格设置。我们通过提出新的成本和公用事业感知的威胁模型来解决这些问题,该模型量身定制了针对表格域的攻击者的攻击者的约束。我们介绍了一个框架,使我们能够设计攻击和防御机制,从而导致模型免受成本或公用事业意识的对手的影响,例如,受到一定美元预算约束的对手。我们表明,我们的方法在与对应于对抗性示例具有经济和社会影响的应用相对应的三个表格数据集中有效。

归纳逻辑编程是基于数学逻辑的机器学习形式,该数学逻辑从给定的示例和背景知识中生成逻辑程序。在此项目中,我们扩展了Popper ILP系统以利用多任务学习。我们实施最新方法和几种新策略来提高搜索性能。此外,我们引入了约束保存,该技术可改善所有方法的整体性能。约束保存使系统可以在背景知识集的更新之间传输知识。因此,我们减少了系统执行的重复工作量。此外,约束保存使我们能够从当前的最新迭代加深搜索方法过渡到更有效的广度首次搜索方法。最后,我们尝试了课程学习技术,并显示了它们对该领域的潜在好处。
