Only limited studies and superficial evaluations are available on agents' behaviors and roles within a Multi-Agent System (MAS). We simulate a MAS using Reinforcement Learning (RL) in a pursuit-evasion (a.k.a predator-prey pursuit) game, which shares task goals with target acquisition, and we create different adversarial scenarios by replacing RL-trained pursuers' policies with two distinct (non-RL) analytical strategies. Using heatmaps of agents' positions (state-space variable) over time, we are able to categorize an RL-trained evader's behaviors. The novelty of our approach entails the creation of an influential feature set that reveals underlying data regularities, which allow us to classify an agent's behavior. This classification may aid in catching the (enemy) targets by enabling us to identify and predict their behaviors, and when extended to pursuers, this approach towards identifying teammates' behavior may allow agents to coordinate more effectively.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) has become commonplace to solve routine everyday tasks. Because of the exponential growth in medical imaging data volume and complexity, the workload on radiologists is steadily increasing. We project that the gap between the number of imaging exams and the number of expert radiologist readers required to cover this increase will continue to expand, consequently introducing a demand for AI-based tools that improve the efficiency with which radiologists can comfortably interpret these exams. AI has been shown to improve efficiency in medical-image generation, processing, and interpretation, and a variety of such AI models have been developed across research labs worldwide. However, very few of these, if any, find their way into routine clinical use, a discrepancy that reflects the divide between AI research and successful AI translation. To address the barrier to clinical deployment, we have formed MONAI Consortium, an open-source community which is building standards for AI deployment in healthcare institutions, and developing tools and infrastructure to facilitate their implementation. This report represents several years of weekly discussions and hands-on problem solving experience by groups of industry experts and clinicians in the MONAI Consortium. We identify barriers between AI-model development in research labs and subsequent clinical deployment and propose solutions. Our report provides guidance on processes which take an imaging AI model from development to clinical implementation in a healthcare institution. We discuss various AI integration points in a clinical Radiology workflow. We also present a taxonomy of Radiology AI use-cases. Through this report, we intend to educate the stakeholders in healthcare and AI (AI researchers, radiologists, imaging informaticists, and regulators) about cross-disciplinary challenges and possible solutions.

We introduce MuJoCo MPC (MJPC), an open-source, interactive application and software framework for real-time predictive control, based on MuJoCo physics. MJPC allows the user to easily author and solve complex robotics tasks, and currently supports three shooting-based planners: derivative-based iLQG and Gradient Descent, and a simple derivative-free method we call Predictive Sampling. Predictive Sampling was designed as an elementary baseline, mostly for its pedagogical value, but turned out to be surprisingly competitive with the more established algorithms. This work does not present algorithmic advances, and instead, prioritises performant algorithms, simple code, and accessibility of model-based methods via intuitive and interactive software. MJPC is available at: github.com/deepmind/mujoco_mpc, a video summary can be viewed at: dpmd.ai/mjpc.

夜间使用常规视觉摄像机运行的机器人由于噪声受限图像而在重建中面临重大挑战。先前的工作表明,爆发成像技术可用于部分克服这一问题。在本文中,我们开发了一种新型的功能检测器,该功能检测器直接在图像爆发上运行,从而在极低的光线条件下增强了基于视觉的重建。我们的方法通过在多尺度和多运动空间中共同搜索,在每次爆发中找到了定义明确的尺度和明显运动的关键点。因为我们在图像具有较高信噪比的阶段描述了这些功能,因此检测到的特征比常规嘈杂图像和突发的图像和表现出高度精确的最新特征更准确和匹配性能。我们显示了提高功能性能和摄像头姿势估计值,并在挑战光限制的场景中使用功能检测器展示了改进的结构,从而改善了结构。我们的功能Finder为在弱光方案和应用程序(包括夜间操作)中运行的机器人提供了重要的一步。

物体之间的碰撞检测对于机器人系统的模拟,控制和学习至关重要。但是,现有的碰撞检测例程本质上是非差异的,从而限制了它们在基于优化的算法中的实用性。在这项工作中,我们提出了一个完全可区分的碰撞检测框架,该框架的原因是一组可复合和高度表达的凸原始形状之间的距离。这是通过将碰撞检测问题制定为凸优化问题来实现的,该问题旨在在有相交之前找到要应用于每个对象的最小均匀缩放率。优化问题是完全可区分的,并且能够返回每个对象上的碰撞检测状态以及接触点。

碰撞检测在机器人系统的模拟,控制和学习中起重要作用。但是,对于对象的配置,没有现有的方法是可区分的,极大地限制了可以在碰撞检测顶部构建的算法。在这项工作中,我们通过将这些问题作为可区分的凸二次程序程序提出,提出了胶囊和填充多边形之间的一组可区分的碰撞检测算法。所得算法能够返回一个接近值,以指示是否发生了碰撞以及对象之间的最接近点,所有对象都是可区分的。结果,它们可以在其他基于梯度的优化方法中可靠地使用,包括轨迹优化,状态估计和强化学习方法。
