深度学习已被积极应用于预测时间序列，从而导致了大量新的自回归模型体系结构。然而，尽管基于时间指数的模型具有吸引人的属性，例如随着时间的推移是连续信号函数，导致表达平滑，但对它们的关注很少。实际上，尽管基于天真的深度指数模型比基于经典时间指数的模型的手动预定义函数表示表达得多，但由于缺乏电感偏见和时间序列的非平稳性，它们的预测不足以预测。在本文中，我们提出了DeepTime，这是一种基于深度指数的模型，该模型通过元学习公式训练，该公式克服了这些局限性，从而产生了有效而准确的预测模型。对现实世界数据集的广泛实验表明，我们的方法通过最先进的方法实现了竞争成果，并且高效。代码可从https://github.com/salesforce/deeptime获得。

近年来，已对变压器进行了积极研究，以预测。尽管在各种情况下经常显示出令人鼓舞的结果，但传统的变压器并非旨在充分利用时间序列数据的特征，因此遭受了一些根本的限制，例如，它们通常缺乏分解能力和解释性，并且既不有效，也没有有效的效率 - 期望。在本文中，我们提出了一种新颖的时间序列变压器体系结构Etsformer，它利用了指数平滑的原理，以改善变压器的时间序列预测。特别是，受到预测时间序列的经典指数平滑方法的启发，我们提出了新型的指数平滑注意力（ESA）和频率注意（FA），以替代香草变压器中的自我发挥机制，从而提高了准确性和效率。基于这些，我们使用模块化分解块重新设计了变压器体系结构，以便可以学会将时间序列数据分解为可解释的时间序列组件，例如水平，增长和季节性。对各种时间序列基准的广泛实验验证了该方法的功效和优势。代码可从https://github.com/salesforce/etsformer获得。

Driven by improved architectures and better representation learning frameworks, the field of visual recognition has enjoyed rapid modernization and performance boost in the early 2020s. For example, modern ConvNets, represented by ConvNeXt, have demonstrated strong performance in various scenarios. While these models were originally designed for supervised learning with ImageNet labels, they can also potentially benefit from self-supervised learning techniques such as masked autoencoders (MAE). However, we found that simply combining these two approaches leads to subpar performance. In this paper, we propose a fully convolutional masked autoencoder framework and a new Global Response Normalization (GRN) layer that can be added to the ConvNeXt architecture to enhance inter-channel feature competition. This co-design of self-supervised learning techniques and architectural improvement results in a new model family called ConvNeXt V2, which significantly improves the performance of pure ConvNets on various recognition benchmarks, including ImageNet classification, COCO detection, and ADE20K segmentation. We also provide pre-trained ConvNeXt V2 models of various sizes, ranging from an efficient 3.7M-parameter Atto model with 76.7% top-1 accuracy on ImageNet, to a 650M Huge model that achieves a state-of-the-art 88.9% accuracy using only public training data.

While the brain connectivity network can inform the understanding and diagnosis of developmental dyslexia, its cause-effect relationships have not yet enough been examined. Employing electroencephalography signals and band-limited white noise stimulus at 4.8 Hz (prosodic-syllabic frequency), we measure the phase Granger causalities among channels to identify differences between dyslexic learners and controls, thereby proposing a method to calculate directional connectivity. As causal relationships run in both directions, we explore three scenarios, namely channels' activity as sources, as sinks, and in total. Our proposed method can be used for both classification and exploratory analysis. In all scenarios, we find confirmation of the established right-lateralized Theta sampling network anomaly, in line with the temporal sampling framework's assumption of oscillatory differences in the Theta and Gamma bands. Further, we show that this anomaly primarily occurs in the causal relationships of channels acting as sinks, where it is significantly more pronounced than when only total activity is observed. In the sink scenario, our classifier obtains 0.84 and 0.88 accuracy and 0.87 and 0.93 AUC for the Theta and Gamma bands, respectively.

The tracking-by-detection paradigm today has become the dominant method for multi-object tracking and works by detecting objects in each frame and then performing data association across frames. However, its sequential frame-wise matching property fundamentally suffers from the intermediate interruptions in a video, such as object occlusions, fast camera movements, and abrupt light changes. Moreover, it typically overlooks temporal information beyond the two frames for matching. In this paper, we investigate an alternative by treating object association as clip-wise matching. Our new perspective views a single long video sequence as multiple short clips, and then the tracking is performed both within and between the clips. The benefits of this new approach are two folds. First, our method is robust to tracking error accumulation or propagation, as the video chunking allows bypassing the interrupted frames, and the short clip tracking avoids the conventional error-prone long-term track memory management. Second, the multiple frame information is aggregated during the clip-wise matching, resulting in a more accurate long-range track association than the current frame-wise matching. Given the state-of-the-art tracking-by-detection tracker, QDTrack, we showcase how the tracking performance improves with our new tracking formulation. We evaluate our proposals on two tracking benchmarks, TAO and MOT17 that have complementary characteristics and challenges each other.

Scaling object taxonomies is one of the important steps toward a robust real-world deployment of recognition systems. We have faced remarkable progress in images since the introduction of the LVIS benchmark. To continue this success in videos, a new video benchmark, TAO, was recently presented. Given the recent encouraging results from both detection and tracking communities, we are interested in marrying those two advances and building a strong large vocabulary video tracker. However, supervisions in LVIS and TAO are inherently sparse or even missing, posing two new challenges for training the large vocabulary trackers. First, no tracking supervisions are in LVIS, which leads to inconsistent learning of detection (with LVIS and TAO) and tracking (only with TAO). Second, the detection supervisions in TAO are partial, which results in catastrophic forgetting of absent LVIS categories during video fine-tuning. To resolve these challenges, we present a simple but effective learning framework that takes full advantage of all available training data to learn detection and tracking while not losing any LVIS categories to recognize. With this new learning scheme, we show that consistent improvements of various large vocabulary trackers are capable, setting strong baseline results on the challenging TAO benchmarks.

Wearable sensors for measuring head kinematics can be noisy due to imperfect interfaces with the body. Mouthguards are used to measure head kinematics during impacts in traumatic brain injury (TBI) studies, but deviations from reference kinematics can still occur due to potential looseness. In this study, deep learning is used to compensate for the imperfect interface and improve measurement accuracy. A set of one-dimensional convolutional neural network (1D-CNN) models was developed to denoise mouthguard kinematics measurements along three spatial axes of linear acceleration and angular velocity. The denoised kinematics had significantly reduced errors compared to reference kinematics, and reduced errors in brain injury criteria and tissue strain and strain rate calculated via finite element modeling. The 1D-CNN models were also tested on an on-field dataset of college football impacts and a post-mortem human subject dataset, with similar denoising effects observed. The models can be used to improve detection of head impacts and TBI risk evaluation, and potentially extended to other sensors measuring kinematics.

Test-time adaptation (TTA) has attracted significant attention due to its practical properties which enable the adaptation of a pre-trained model to a new domain with only target dataset during the inference stage. Prior works on TTA assume that the target dataset comes from the same distribution and thus constitutes a single homogeneous domain. In practice, however, the target domain can contain multiple homogeneous domains which are sufficiently distinctive from each other and those multiple domains might occur cyclically. Our preliminary investigation shows that domain-specific TTA outperforms vanilla TTA treating compound domain (CD) as a single one. However, domain labels are not available for CD, which makes domain-specific TTA not practicable. To this end, we propose an online clustering algorithm for finding pseudo-domain labels to obtain similar benefits as domain-specific configuration and accumulating knowledge of cyclic domains effectively. Moreover, we observe that there is a significant discrepancy in terms of prediction quality among samples, especially in the CD context. This further motivates us to boost its performance with gradient denoising by considering the image-wise similarity with the source distribution. Overall, the key contribution of our work lies in proposing a highly significant new task compound domain test-time adaptation (CD-TTA) on semantic segmentation as well as providing a strong baseline to facilitate future works to benchmark.

Universal Domain Adaptation aims to transfer the knowledge between the datasets by handling two shifts: domain-shift and category-shift. The main challenge is correctly distinguishing the unknown target samples while adapting the distribution of known class knowledge from source to target. Most existing methods approach this problem by first training the target adapted known classifier and then relying on the single threshold to distinguish unknown target samples. However, this simple threshold-based approach prevents the model from considering the underlying complexities existing between the known and unknown samples in the high-dimensional feature space. In this paper, we propose a new approach in which we use two sets of feature points, namely dual Classifiers for Prototypes and Reciprocals (CPR). Our key idea is to associate each prototype with corresponding known class features while pushing the reciprocals apart from these prototypes to locate them in the potential unknown feature space. The target samples are then classified as unknown if they fall near any reciprocals at test time. To successfully train our framework, we collect the partial, confident target samples that are classified as known or unknown through on our proposed multi-criteria selection. We then additionally apply the entropy loss regularization to them. For further adaptation, we also apply standard consistency regularization that matches the predictions of two different views of the input to make more compact target feature space. We evaluate our proposal, CPR, on three standard benchmarks and achieve comparable or new state-of-the-art results. We also provide extensive ablation experiments to verify our main design choices in our framework.

There exists unexplained diverse variation within the predefined colon cancer stages using only features either from genomics or histopathological whole slide images as prognostic factors. Unraveling this variation will bring about improved in staging and treatment outcome, hence motivated by the advancement of Deep Neural Network libraries and different structures and factors within some genomic dataset, we aggregate atypical patterns in histopathological images with diverse carcinogenic expression from mRNA, miRNA and DNA Methylation as an integrative input source into an ensemble deep neural network for colon cancer stages classification and samples stratification into low or high risk survival groups. The results of our Ensemble Deep Convolutional Neural Network model show an improved performance in stages classification on the integrated dataset. The fused input features return Area under curve Receiver Operating Characteristic curve (AUC ROC) of 0.95 compared with AUC ROC of 0.71 and 0.68 obtained when only genomics and images features are used for the stage's classification, respectively. Also, the extracted features were used to split the patients into low or high risk survival groups. Among the 2548 fused features, 1695 features showed a statistically significant survival probability differences between the two risk groups defined by the extracted features.
