To train deep learning models, which often outperform traditional approaches, large datasets of a specified medium, e.g., images, are used in numerous areas. However, for light field-specific machine learning tasks, there is a lack of such available datasets. Therefore, we create our own light field datasets, which have great potential for a variety of applications due to the abundance of information in light fields compared to singular images. Using the Unity and C# frameworks, we develop a novel approach for generating large, scalable, and reproducible light field datasets based on customizable hardware configurations to accelerate light field deep learning research.

面向目标的生成脚本学习旨在根据目标生成后续步骤，这是帮助机器人进行日常生活的刻板印象活动的重要任务。我们表明，如果历史状态不仅被给人的语言指示捕获，而且还可以增强随附图像提供的其他信息，可以提高此任务的性能。因此，我们提出了一项新任务，多媒体生成脚本学习，以通过跟踪文本和视觉方式中的历史状态，并介绍包含2,338个任务和31,496个步骤的第一个基准，从而生成后续步骤。我们旨在生成视觉状态的脚本，这些脚本是可跟踪的，对看不见的任务的诱导性，并且在各自的步骤中多样化。我们建议通过多媒体选择性编码器编码视觉状态更改，并使用检索仪的解码器从先前观察到的任务中转移知识，并通过优化面向多样性的对比度学习目标来在每个步骤中介绍不同的信息。我们定义指标以评估发电质量和电感质量。实验结果表明，我们的方法明显优于强质基线。

在人工智能中，我们经常寻求确定许多变量的未知目标函数$ y = f（\ mathbf {x}）$给出有限的例子$ s = \ {（\ mathbf {x ^ {（i）}} ，y ^ {（i）}）\} $ with $ \ mathbf {x ^ {（i）}} \以$ d $是一个感兴趣的域名。我们将$ S $称为培训集和最终任务是识别近似于新$ \ MATHBF {x} $近似于此目标函数的数学模型;使用$ t \ neq s $（即，测试模型泛化），设置$ t = \ {\ mathbf {x ^ {x ^ {x ^ {x ^ {x ^ {x ^ {x ^ {x ^ {x ^ {x但是，对于某些应用，主要兴趣是近似于较大的域名$ d'$的未知函数，该域为$ d $。例如，在涉及设计新结构的情况下，我们可能有兴趣最大化$ F $;因此，源自$ S $的模型也应该在$ d'$以$ y $大于$ s $ m $的值概括为$ d'$。从这种意义上讲，AI系统将提供重要信息，可以指导设计过程，例如，使用学习模型作为设计新实验室实验的代理功能。通过结合添加剂样条模型，我们基于持续分数的迭代配合来介绍一种多变量回归的方法。我们将其与Adaboost，内核，线性回归，Lasso Lars，线性支持向量回归，多层感知，随机林，随机梯度下降和XGBoost等方法进行比较。我们基于物理化学特性预测超导体临界温度的重要问题的性能。

Many modern research fields increasingly rely on collecting and analysing massive, often unstructured, and unwieldy datasets. Consequently, there is growing interest in machine learning and artificial intelligence applications that can harness this `data deluge'. This broad nontechnical overview provides a gentle introduction to machine learning with a specific focus on medical and biological applications. We explain the common types of machine learning algorithms and typical tasks that can be solved, illustrating the basics with concrete examples from healthcare. Lastly, we provide an outlook on open challenges, limitations, and potential impacts of machine-learning-powered medicine.

The detection of anomalies in time series data is crucial in a wide range of applications, such as system monitoring, health care or cyber security. While the vast number of available methods makes selecting the right method for a certain application hard enough, different methods have different strengths, e.g. regarding the type of anomalies they are able to find. In this work, we compare six unsupervised anomaly detection methods with different complexities to answer the questions: Are the more complex methods usually performing better? And are there specific anomaly types that those method are tailored to? The comparison is done on the UCR anomaly archive, a recent benchmark dataset for anomaly detection. We compare the six methods by analyzing the experimental results on a dataset- and anomaly type level after tuning the necessary hyperparameter for each method. Additionally we examine the ability of individual methods to incorporate prior knowledge about the anomalies and analyse the differences of point-wise and sequence wise features. We show with broad experiments, that the classical machine learning methods show a superior performance compared to the deep learning methods across a wide range of anomaly types.

Dialogue models are able to generate coherent and fluent responses, but they can still be challenging to control and may produce non-engaging, unsafe results. This unpredictability diminishes user trust and can hinder the use of the models in the real world. To address this, we introduce DialGuide, a novel framework for controlling dialogue model behavior using natural language rules, or guidelines. These guidelines provide information about the context they are applicable to and what should be included in the response, allowing the models to generate responses that are more closely aligned with the developer's expectations and intent. We evaluate DialGuide on three tasks in open-domain dialogue response generation: guideline selection, response generation, and response entailment verification. Our dataset contains 10,737 positive and 15,467 negative dialogue context-response-guideline triplets across two domains - chit-chat and safety. We provide baseline models for the tasks and benchmark their performance. We also demonstrate that DialGuide is effective in the dialogue safety domain, producing safe and engaging responses that follow developer guidelines.

We consider a sequential decision making task where we are not allowed to evaluate parameters that violate an a priori unknown (safety) constraint. A common approach is to place a Gaussian process prior on the unknown constraint and allow evaluations only in regions that are safe with high probability. Most current methods rely on a discretization of the domain and cannot be directly extended to the continuous case. Moreover, the way in which they exploit regularity assumptions about the constraint introduces an additional critical hyperparameter. In this paper, we propose an information-theoretic safe exploration criterion that directly exploits the GP posterior to identify the most informative safe parameters to evaluate. Our approach is naturally applicable to continuous domains and does not require additional hyperparameters. We theoretically analyze the method and show that we do not violate the safety constraint with high probability and that we explore by learning about the constraint up to arbitrary precision. Empirical evaluations demonstrate improved data-efficiency and scalability.

Counterfactuals are often described as 'retrospective,' focusing on hypothetical alternatives to a realized past. This description relates to an often implicit assumption about the structure and stability of exogenous variables in the system being modeled -- an assumption that is reasonable in many settings where counterfactuals are used. In this work, we consider cases where we might reasonably make a different assumption about exogenous variables, namely, that the exogenous noise terms of each unit do exhibit some unit-specific structure and/or stability. This leads us to a different use of counterfactuals -- a 'forward-looking' rather than 'retrospective' counterfactual. We introduce "counterfactual treatment choice," a type of treatment choice problem that motivates using forward-looking counterfactuals. We then explore how mismatches between interventional versus forward-looking counterfactual approaches to treatment choice, consistent with different assumptions about exogenous noise, can lead to counterintuitive results.
