深度学习取得了长足的进步，用于图像中的对象检测。对象检测的检测准确性和计算成本取决于图像的空间分辨率，这可能会受到相机和存储注意事项的约束。压缩通常是通过减少空间或幅度分辨率或有时两者都对性能的众所周知的影响来实现的。检测精度还取决于感兴趣的对象与摄像机的距离。我们的工作研究了空间和振幅分辨率以及对象距离对物体检测准确性和计算成本的影响。我们开发了Yolov5（ra-Yolo）的分辨率 - 自适应变体，该变体基于输入图像的空间分辨率，它在特征金字塔和检测头中变化。为了训练和评估这种新方法，我们通过结合TJU和Eurocity数据集的图像来创建具有不同空间和振幅分辨率的图像数据集，并通过应用空间调整和压缩来生成不同的分辨率。我们首先表明Ra-Yolo在各种空间分辨率上实现了检测准确性和推理时间之间的良好权衡。然后，我们使用拟议的RA-YOLO模型评估空间和振幅分辨率对物体检测准确性的影响。我们证明，导致最高检测精度的最佳空间分辨率取决于“耐受性”图像大小。我们进一步评估了对象到摄像机对检测准确性的影响，并表明较高的空间分辨率可实现更大的检测范围。这些结果为选择图像空间分辨率和压缩设置提供了重要的指南，这些分辨率和压缩设置基于可用的带宽，存储，所需的推理时间和/或所需的检测范围，在实际应用中。

先进的可穿戴设备越来越多地利用高分辨率多摄像头系统。作为用于处理所得到的图像数据的最先进的神经网络是计算要求的，对于利用第五代（5G）无线连接和移动边缘计算，已经越来越感兴趣，以将该处理卸载到云。为了评估这种可能性，本文提出了一个详细的仿真和评估，用于5G无线卸载，用于对象检测，在一个名为Vis4ion的强大新型智能可穿戴物中，用于盲目损害（BVI）。目前的Vis4ion系统是一种具有高分辨率摄像机，视觉处理和触觉和音频反馈的仪表簿。本文认为将相机数据上载到移动边缘云以执行实时对象检测并将检测结果传输回可穿戴。为了确定视频要求，纸张评估视频比特率和分辨率对物体检测精度和范围的影响。利用与BVI导航相关的标记对象的新街道场景数据集进行分析。视觉评估与详细的全堆栈无线网络仿真结合，以确定吞吐量的分布和延迟，具有来自城市环境中的新高分辨率3D模型的实际导航路径和射线跟踪。为了比较，无线仿真考虑了标准的4G长期演进（LTE）载波和高速度5G毫米波（MMWAVE）载波。因此，该工作提供了对具有高带宽和低延迟要求的应用中的MMWAVE连接的边缘计算的彻底和现实评估。

Blind image quality assessment (BIQA) remains challenging due to the diversity of distortion and image content variation, which complicate the distortion patterns crossing different scales and aggravate the difficulty of the regression problem for BIQA. However, existing BIQA methods often fail to consider multi-scale distortion patterns and image content, and little research has been done on learning strategies to make the regression model produce better performance. In this paper, we propose a simple yet effective Progressive Multi-Task Image Quality Assessment (PMT-IQA) model, which contains a multi-scale feature extraction module (MS) and a progressive multi-task learning module (PMT), to help the model learn complex distortion patterns and better optimize the regression issue to align with the law of human learning process from easy to hard. To verify the effectiveness of the proposed PMT-IQA model, we conduct experiments on four widely used public datasets, and the experimental results indicate that the performance of PMT-IQA is superior to the comparison approaches, and both MS and PMT modules improve the model's performance.

Given the increasingly intricate forms of partial differential equations (PDEs) in physics and related fields, computationally solving PDEs without analytic solutions inevitably suffers from the trade-off between accuracy and efficiency. Recent advances in neural operators, a kind of mesh-independent neural-network-based PDE solvers, have suggested the dawn of overcoming this challenge. In this emerging direction, Koopman neural operator (KNO) is a representative demonstration and outperforms other state-of-the-art alternatives in terms of accuracy and efficiency. Here we present KoopmanLab, a self-contained and user-friendly PyTorch module of the Koopman neural operator family for solving partial differential equations. Beyond the original version of KNO, we develop multiple new variants of KNO based on different neural network architectures to improve the general applicability of our module. These variants are validated by mesh-independent and long-term prediction experiments implemented on representative PDEs (e.g., the Navier-Stokes equation and the Bateman-Burgers equation) and ERA5 (i.e., one of the largest high-resolution data sets of global-scale climate fields). These demonstrations suggest the potential of KoopmanLab to be considered in diverse applications of partial differential equations.

We present SODA: the first publicly available, million-scale high-quality social dialogue dataset. Using SODA, we train COSMO: a generalizable conversation agent outperforming previous best-performing agents on both in- and out-of-domain datasets. In contrast to most existing crowdsourced, small-scale dialogue corpora, we distill 1.5M socially-grounded dialogues from a pre-trained language model (InstructGPT; Ouyang et al., 2022). Dialogues are distilled by contextualizing social commonsense knowledge from a knowledge graph (Atomic10x; West et al., 2022). Human evaluation shows that dialogues in SODA are more consistent, specific, and (surprisingly) natural than prior human-authored datasets - e.g., DailyDialog (Li et al., 2017), BlendedSkillTalk (Smith et al., 2020). In addition, extensive evaluations show that COSMO is significantly more natural and consistent on unseen datasets than best-performing dialogue models - e.g., GODEL (Peng et al., 2022), BlenderBot (Roller et al., 2021), DialoGPT (Zhang et al., 2020). Furthermore, it is sometimes even preferred to the original human-written gold responses. We make our data, models, and code public.

Pre-trained models have achieved remarkable success in natural language processing (NLP). However, existing pre-training methods underutilize the benefits of language understanding for generation. Inspired by the idea of Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs), we propose a GAN-style model for encoder-decoder pre-training by introducing an auxiliary discriminator, unifying the ability of language understanding and generation in a single model. Our model, named as GanLM, is trained with two pre-training objectives: replaced token detection and replaced token denoising. Specifically, given masked source sentences, the generator outputs the target distribution and the discriminator predicts whether the target sampled tokens from distribution are incorrect. The target sentence is replaced with misclassified tokens to construct noisy previous context, which is used to generate the gold sentence. In general, both tasks improve the ability of language understanding and generation by selectively using the denoising data. Extensive experiments in language generation benchmarks show that GanLM with the powerful language understanding capability outperforms various strong pre-trained language models (PLMs) and achieves state-of-the-art performance.

We propose a novel task, G4C (Goal-driven Guidance Generation in Grounded Communication), for studying goal-driven and grounded natural language interactions. Specifically, we choose Dungeons and Dragons (D&D) -- a role-playing game consisting of multiple player characters and a Dungeon Master (DM) who collaborate to achieve a set of goals that are beneficial to the players -- as a testbed for this task. Here, each of the player characters is a student, with their own personas and abilities, and the DM is the teacher, an arbitrator of the rules of the world and responsible for assisting and guiding the students towards a global goal. We propose a theory-of-mind-inspired methodology for training such a DM with reinforcement learning (RL), where a DM: (1) learns to predict how the players will react to its utterances using a dataset of D&D dialogue transcripts; and (2) uses this prediction as a reward function providing feedback on how effective these utterances are at guiding the players towards a goal. Human and automated evaluations show that a DM trained with RL to generate guidance by incorporating a theory-of-mind of the players significantly improves the players' ability to achieve goals grounded in their shared world.

Aiming at the current problems of theory-oriented,practice-light,and lack of innovation ability in the teaching of postgraduate software engineering courses,a multi-stage feedback teaching mode for software engineering postgraduates based on competition project_driven is proposed. The model is driven by the competition project,and implementing suggestions are given in terms of stage allocation of software engineering course tasks and ability cultivation,competition case design and process evaluation improvement,etc. Through the implementation of this teaching mode,students enthusiasm and initiative are expected to be stimulated,and the overall development of students professional skills and comprehension ability would be improved to meet the demand of society for software engineering technical talents.

We present POTATO, the Portable text annotation tool, a free, fully open-sourced annotation system that 1) supports labeling many types of text and multimodal data; 2) offers easy-to-configure features to maximize the productivity of both deployers and annotators (convenient templates for common ML/NLP tasks, active learning, keypress shortcuts, keyword highlights, tooltips); and 3) supports a high degree of customization (editable UI, inserting pre-screening questions, attention and qualification tests). Experiments over two annotation tasks suggest that POTATO improves labeling speed through its specially-designed productivity features, especially for long documents and complex tasks. POTATO is available at https://github.com/davidjurgens/potato and will continue to be updated.

Despite the current success of multilingual pre-training, most prior works focus on leveraging monolingual data or bilingual parallel data and overlooked the value of trilingual parallel data. This paper presents \textbf{Tri}angular Document-level \textbf{P}re-training (\textbf{TRIP}), which is the first in the field to extend the conventional monolingual and bilingual pre-training to a trilingual setting by (i) \textbf{Grafting} the same documents in two languages into one mixed document, and (ii) predicting the remaining one language as the reference translation. Our experiments on document-level MT and cross-lingual abstractive summarization show that TRIP brings by up to 3.65 d-BLEU points and 6.2 ROUGE-L points on three multilingual document-level machine translation benchmarks and one cross-lingual abstractive summarization benchmark, including multiple strong state-of-the-art (SOTA) scores. In-depth analysis indicates that TRIP improves document-level machine translation and captures better document contexts in at least three characteristics: (i) tense consistency, (ii) noun consistency and (iii) conjunction presence.
