端到端（E2E）自动语音识别模型如经常性神经网络传感器（RNN-T）正成为流媒体级语音助手的流行选择。虽然E2E模型在学习培训数据的学习代表时非常有效，但他们对看不见的域的准确性仍然是一个具有挑战性的问题。此外，这些模型需要配对的音频和文本培训数据，计算得昂贵，并且难以适应对话语音的快速不断发展的性质。在这项工作中，我们探讨了使用利用文本数据源的似然比来调整RNN-T模型的上下文偏置方法。我们表明这种方法在提高稀有单词识别方面是有效的，并导致在多个OUT的N-BEST ORACLE WER（n = 8）中为10％的相对提高10％，在多个外部域数据集没有常规数据集没有任何劣化。我们还表明，通过适应第二遍辅助模型的互补偏置适应性提供了加性WER改进。

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.

The demonstrated success of transfer learning has popularized approaches that involve pretraining models from massive data sources and subsequent finetuning towards a specific task. While such approaches have become the norm in fields such as natural language processing, implementation and evaluation of transfer learning approaches for chemistry are in the early stages. In this work, we demonstrate finetuning for downstream tasks on a graph neural network (GNN) trained over a molecular database containing 2.7 million water clusters. The use of Graphcore IPUs as an AI accelerator for training molecular GNNs reduces training time from a reported 2.7 days on 0.5M clusters to 1.2 hours on 2.7M clusters. Finetuning the pretrained model for downstream tasks of molecular dynamics and transfer to a different potential energy surface took only 8.3 hours and 28 minutes, respectively, on a single GPU.

By utilizing only depth information, the paper introduces a novel but efficient local planning approach that enhances not only computational efficiency but also planning performances for memoryless local planners. The sampling is first proposed to be based on the depth data which can identify and eliminate a specific type of in-collision trajectories in the sampled motion primitive library. More specifically, all the obscured primitives' endpoints are found through querying the depth values and excluded from the sampled set, which can significantly reduce the computational workload required in collision checking. On the other hand, we furthermore propose a steering mechanism also based on the depth information to effectively prevent an autonomous vehicle from getting stuck when facing a large convex obstacle, providing a higher level of autonomy for a planning system. Our steering technique is theoretically proved to be complete in scenarios of convex obstacles. To evaluate effectiveness of the proposed DEpth based both Sampling and Steering (DESS) methods, we implemented them in the synthetic environments where a quadrotor was simulated flying through a cluttered region with multiple size-different obstacles. The obtained results demonstrate that the proposed approach can considerably decrease computing time in local planners, where more trajectories can be evaluated while the best path with much lower cost can be found. More importantly, the success rates calculated by the fact that the robot successfully navigated to the destinations in different testing scenarios are always higher than 99.6% on average.

Leveraging shared learning through Massively Multilingual Models, state-of-the-art machine translation models are often able to adapt to the paucity of data for low-resource languages. However, this performance comes at the cost of significantly bloated models which are not practically deployable. Knowledge Distillation is one popular technique to develop competitive, lightweight models: In this work, we first evaluate its use to compress MT models focusing on languages with extremely limited training data. Through our analysis across 8 languages, we find that the variance in the performance of the distilled models due to their dependence on priors including the amount of synthetic data used for distillation, the student architecture, training hyperparameters and confidence of the teacher models, makes distillation a brittle compression mechanism. To mitigate this, we explore the use of post-training quantization for the compression of these models. Here, we find that while distillation provides gains across some low-resource languages, quantization provides more consistent performance trends for the entire range of languages, especially the lowest-resource languages in our target set.

目前，自然语言理解（NLU）中最根本的两个挑战是：（a）如何以“正确”的原因确定基于深度学习的模型是否在NLU基准上得分很高；（b）了解这些原因甚至是什么。我们研究了关于两个语言“技能”的阅读理解模型的行为：核心分辨率和比较。我们为从系统中预期的推理步骤提出了一个定义，该系统将“缓慢阅读”，并将其与各种大小的贝特家族的五个模型的行为进行比较，这是通过显着分数和反事实解释观察到的。我们发现，对于比较（而不是核心），基于较大编码器的系统更有可能依靠“正确”的信息，但即使他们在概括方面也很难，表明他们仍然学习特定的词汇模式，而不是比较的一般原则。

为了简化图书馆管理的过程，已经采用了许多技术，但其中大多数专注于库存管理。在发行和返回图书馆的发行和返回图书馆的领域，几乎没有任何自动化进展。在大学和学校中，宿舍经常忘记及时将发行的书籍返回图书馆。为了解决上述问题并确保及时提交已发行的书籍，这项工作开发了一个解决这些复杂性的书籍机器人。该机器人可以从A点到B点通勤，扫描并验证QR码和条形码。该机器人将具有一定的有效载荷能力来携带书籍。 QR码和条形码扫描将由PI摄像头，OpenCV和Raspberry Pi启用，从而使书籍交换安全。机器人的探测器操作将通过Blynk应用程序手动控制。本文着重于如何减少人类干预，并在机器人的帮助下自动化图书馆管理系统的问题。

自然语言推理（NLI）任务通常需要通过多个步骤进行推理才能得出结论。尽管产生此类中间步骤的必要性（而不是摘要说明）获得了大众支持，但尚不清楚如何在不完全端到端的监督以及如何进一步利用此类步骤的情况下生成此类步骤。在这项工作中，我们训练一个序列到序列模型，仅生成下一步给定NLI前提和假设对（以及先前的步骤）；然后通过外部知识和符号搜索来增强它，以仅在下一步监督下生成中间步骤。我们通过自动化和人类验证显示了此类生成的步骤的正确性。此外，我们表明，这种生成的步骤可以通过多个公共NLI数据集使用简单的数据增强策略来帮助提高端到端的NLI任务性能。

计量经济学和机器学习中的各种问题，包括仪器变量回归和钟声残留最小化，可以表达为满足一组条件矩限制（CMR）。我们得出了满足CMR的一般游戏理论策略，该策略可扩展到非线性问题，可与基于梯度的优化相提并论，并且能够考虑有限的样本不确定性。我们恢复了Dikkala等人的方法。和Dai等。作为我们一般框架的特殊情况，请先详细介绍各种扩展，以及如何有效地解决CMR定义的游戏。

预先训练的大语言模型（LLM）（例如OpenAI Codex）通过从非正式自然语言（NL）意图中生成自然代码来自动化编码的重要方面。但是，生成的代码无法满足用户意图的任何正确性保证。实际上，很难定义正确性的概念，因为自然语言可能是模棱两可的，并且缺乏正式的语义。在本文中，我们通过提出测试驱动的用户形式化（TDUIF）的工作流程来解决以上问题的第一步，该工作流利用轻量级用户的反馈共同将用户的意图正式化为测试（部分规范） ），（b）生成符合正式用户意图的代码。要对算法进行可扩展的大规模自动化评估，而无需循环中的用户，我们描述了如何使用参考解决方案模拟用户与高保真性的互动。我们还描述并实施了几种算法组件（包括突变和排名一组测试）的替代实现，这些实现可用于有效解决TDUIF问题。我们已经开发了一个系统的Ticoder，该系统实现了多种解决方案来进行TDUIF，并将其对MBPP学术代码生成基准测试的相对有效性进行了比较。在MBPP上使用OpenAI Codex LLM的结果很有希望：我们的最佳算法将通行证@1代码生成准确度指标从48.39％提高到单个用户查询，最高为85.48％，最多可达55.48％，最多可提供5个用户查询。其次，我们可以生成与用户意图在1.69个用户查询中的非平凡功能单位测试，该数据集为90.40％的示例，用于此数据集。
