我们提供了有关如何仅使用其空间表示形式对轨迹进行分类的首次综合研究，该研究以5个现实世界数据集进行了测量。我们的比较考虑了20个不同的分类器，它们是流行距离的KNN分类器，或使用每个轨迹的矢量化表示形式作为更通用的分类器。我们还开发了如何通过数据驱动的方法矢量化轨迹以选择相关地标的新方法，这些方法证明是我们研究中最有效的方法之一。这些矢量化方法简单而有效，并且还可以在已建立的运输模式分类任务上提供最先进的准确性。总的来说，这项研究为如何对轨迹进行分类设定了标准，包括引入新的简单技术来实现这些结果，并为不可避免的未来对该主题的研究设定了严格的标准。

嵌入式是数据分析任务的基本构建块之一。嵌入式已经是大型语言模型和图像分析的重要工具，它们的使用扩展到许多其他研究域。这些分布式表示的生成通常是数据和计算昂贵的过程;然而，他们创造后的整体分析和调整仍然是一个发展中地区。在本文中，我们首先提出了非常一般的定量测量，以基于可以学习的嵌入数据中的特征的存在。然后，我们设计了一种方法来删除或缓解嵌入中的不期望的特征，同时保留数据的基本结构。我们使用域反对派网络（DAN）来生成非仿射变换，但我们添加约束以确保保留嵌入的基本结构。我们的经验结果表明，该算法在若干数据集中显着优异地优于艺术品无监督算法，包括业内新颖的应用。

Optimal Transport (OT) provides a useful geometric framework to estimate the permutation matrix under unsupervised cross-lingual word embedding (CLWE) models that pose the alignment task as a Wasserstein-Procrustes problem. However, linear programming algorithms and approximate OT solvers via Sinkhorn for computing the permutation matrix come with a significant computational burden since they scale cubically and quadratically, respectively, in the input size. This makes it slow and infeasible to compute OT distances exactly for a larger input size, resulting in a poor approximation quality of the permutation matrix and subsequently a less robust learned transfer function or mapper. This paper proposes an unsupervised projection-based CLWE model called quantized Wasserstein Procrustes (qWP). qWP relies on a quantization step of both the source and target monolingual embedding space to estimate the permutation matrix given a cheap sampling procedure. This approach substantially improves the approximation quality of empirical OT solvers given fixed computational cost. We demonstrate that qWP achieves state-of-the-art results on the Bilingual lexicon Induction (BLI) task.

Large language models (LLMs) have been shown to be able to perform new tasks based on a few demonstrations or natural language instructions. While these capabilities have led to widespread adoption, most LLMs are developed by resource-rich organizations and are frequently kept from the public. As a step towards democratizing this powerful technology, we present BLOOM, a 176B-parameter open-access language model designed and built thanks to a collaboration of hundreds of researchers. BLOOM is a decoder-only Transformer language model that was trained on the ROOTS corpus, a dataset comprising hundreds of sources in 46 natural and 13 programming languages (59 in total). We find that BLOOM achieves competitive performance on a wide variety of benchmarks, with stronger results after undergoing multitask prompted finetuning. To facilitate future research and applications using LLMs, we publicly release our models and code under the Responsible AI License.

由于它们对运动模糊和在弱光和高动态范围条件下的高度鲁棒性的韧性，事件摄像机有望成为对未来火星直升机任务的基于视觉探索的传感器。但是，现有的基于事件的视觉惯性进程（VIO）算法要么患有高跟踪误差，要么是脆弱的，因为它们无法应对由于无法预料的跟踪损失或其他效果而导致的显着深度不确定性。在这项工作中，我们介绍了EKLT-VIO，该工作通过将基于事件的最新前端与基于过滤器的后端相结合来解决这两种限制。这使得不确定性的准确和强大，超过了基于事件和基于框架的VIO算法在挑战性基准上的算法32％。此外，我们在悬停的条件（胜过现有事件的方法）以及新近收集的类似火星和高动态范围的新序列中表现出准确的性能，而现有的基于框架的方法失败了。在此过程中，我们表明基于事件的VIO是基于视觉的火星探索的前进道路。

大型语言模型已被证明可以使用少量学习来实现各种自然语言任务的出色表现，这大大减少了将模型调整到特定应用程序所需的特定任务培训示例的数量。为了进一步了解量表对少量学习的影响，我们培训了一个5400亿个参数，密集激活的变压器语言模型，我们称之为“途径”语言模型棕榈。我们使用Pathways在6144 TPU V4芯片上训练了Palm，这是一种新的ML系统，可在多个TPU POD上进行高效的训练。我们通过在数百种语言理解和产生基准的基准方面实现最先进的学习结果来证明扩展的持续好处。在这些任务中，Palm 540B实现了突破性的表现，在一系列多步推理任务上表现出色，超过了最新的最新表现，并且在最近发布的Big Benchmark上表现优于平均人类表现。大量的大型基础任务显示出与模型量表的不连续改进，这意味着当我们扩展到最大模型时，性能急剧增加。 Palm在多语言任务和源代码生成方面也具有很强的功能，我们在各种基准测试中证明了这一点。我们还提供了有关偏见和毒性的全面分析，并研究了训练数据记忆的程度，相对于模型量表。最后，我们讨论与大语言模型有关的道德考虑，并讨论潜在的缓解策略。

在本文中，我们介绍了四种突出的恶意软件检测工具的科学评估，以帮助组织提出两个主要问题：基于ML的工具在多大程度上对以前和从未见过的文件进行了准确的分类？是否值得购买网络级恶意软件检测器？为了识别弱点，我们针对各种文件类型的总计3,536个文件（2,554或72 \％恶意，982或28 \％良性）测试了每个工具，包括数百个恶意零日，polyglots和apt-style-style style文件，在多个协议上交付。我们介绍了有关检测时间和准确性的统计结果，请考虑互补分析（一起使用多个工具），并提供了近期成本效益评估程序的两种新颖应用。尽管基于ML的工具在检测零日文件和可执行文件方面更有效，但基于签名的工具仍然是总体上更好的选择。两种基于网络的工具都与任何一种主机工具配对时都可以进行大量（模拟）节省，但两者在HTTP或SMTP以外的协议上都显示出较差的检测率。我们的结果表明，所有四个工具都具有几乎完美的精度但令人震惊的召回率，尤其是在可执行文件和Office文件以外的文件类型上 - 未检测到37％的恶意软件，包括所有Polyglot文件。给出了研究人员的优先事项，并给出了最终用户的外卖。

The recent increase in public and academic interest in preserving biodiversity has led to the growth of the field of conservation technology. This field involves designing and constructing tools that utilize technology to aid in the conservation of wildlife. In this article, we will use case studies to demonstrate the importance of designing conservation tools with human-wildlife interaction in mind and provide a framework for creating successful tools. These case studies include a range of complexities, from simple cat collars to machine learning and game theory methodologies. Our goal is to introduce and inform current and future researchers in the field of conservation technology and provide references for educating the next generation of conservation technologists. Conservation technology not only has the potential to benefit biodiversity but also has broader impacts on fields such as sustainability and environmental protection. By using innovative technologies to address conservation challenges, we can find more effective and efficient solutions to protect and preserve our planet's resources.

We present the interpretable meta neural ordinary differential equation (iMODE) method to rapidly learn generalizable (i.e., not parameter-specific) dynamics from trajectories of multiple dynamical systems that vary in their physical parameters. The iMODE method learns meta-knowledge, the functional variations of the force field of dynamical system instances without knowing the physical parameters, by adopting a bi-level optimization framework: an outer level capturing the common force field form among studied dynamical system instances and an inner level adapting to individual system instances. A priori physical knowledge can be conveniently embedded in the neural network architecture as inductive bias, such as conservative force field and Euclidean symmetry. With the learned meta-knowledge, iMODE can model an unseen system within seconds, and inversely reveal knowledge on the physical parameters of a system, or as a Neural Gauge to "measure" the physical parameters of an unseen system with observed trajectories. We test the validity of the iMODE method on bistable, double pendulum, Van der Pol, Slinky, and reaction-diffusion systems.

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.
