电池性能数据集通常是非正常和多色性的。推断出用于模型预测的这些数据集需要注意这些特性。本研究探讨了数据正常性对建筑机械学习模型的影响。在这项工作中，基于树的回归模型和多元线性回归模型每个都是由具有多卷曲性的高度偏斜的非正常数据集构建。有几种技术是必要的，例如数据转换，以实现具有此数据集的良好多个线性回归模型;讨论了最有用的技术。利用这些技术，最佳的多元线性回归模型达到了R ^ 2 = 81.23％，并且没有对本研究中使用的数据集没有多种性效应。基于树的模型在此数据集上执行更好，因为它们是非参数，能够在变量之间处理复杂关系而不受彩细量的影响。我们在使用随机森林时，我们展示了袋装，减少了过度装备。我们最佳的基于树的模型实现了R ^ 2 = 97.73％的准确性。本研究解释了为什么基于树的回归应该作为非正常分布式多元图数据的机器学习模型。

Recent object detection models for infrared (IR) imagery are based upon deep neural networks (DNNs) and require large amounts of labeled training imagery. However, publicly-available datasets that can be used for such training are limited in their size and diversity. To address this problem, we explore cross-modal style transfer (CMST) to leverage large and diverse color imagery datasets so that they can be used to train DNN-based IR image based object detectors. We evaluate six contemporary stylization methods on four publicly-available IR datasets - the first comparison of its kind - and find that CMST is highly effective for DNN-based detectors. Surprisingly, we find that existing data-driven methods are outperformed by a simple grayscale stylization (an average of the color channels). Our analysis reveals that existing data-driven methods are either too simplistic or introduce significant artifacts into the imagery. To overcome these limitations, we propose meta-learning style transfer (MLST), which learns a stylization by composing and tuning well-behaved analytic functions. We find that MLST leads to more complex stylizations without introducing significant image artifacts and achieves the best overall detector performance on our benchmark datasets.

Machine learning model development and optimisation can be a rather cumbersome and resource-intensive process. Custom models are often more difficult to build and deploy, and they require infrastructure and expertise which are often costly to acquire and maintain. Machine learning product development lifecycle must take into account the need to navigate the difficulties of developing and deploying machine learning models. evoML is an AI-powered tool that provides automated functionalities in machine learning model development, optimisation, and model code optimisation. Core functionalities of evoML include data cleaning, exploratory analysis, feature analysis and generation, model optimisation, model evaluation, model code optimisation, and model deployment. Additionally, a key feature of evoML is that it embeds code and model optimisation into the model development process, and includes multi-objective optimisation capabilities.

Representing and reasoning about uncertainty is crucial for autonomous agents acting in partially observable environments with noisy sensors. Partially observable Markov decision processes (POMDPs) serve as a general framework for representing problems in which uncertainty is an important factor. Online sample-based POMDP methods have emerged as efficient approaches to solving large POMDPs and have been shown to extend to continuous domains. However, these solutions struggle to find long-horizon plans in problems with significant uncertainty. Exploration heuristics can help guide planning, but many real-world settings contain significant task-irrelevant uncertainty that might distract from the task objective. In this paper, we propose STRUG, an online POMDP solver capable of handling domains that require long-horizon planning with significant task-relevant and task-irrelevant uncertainty. We demonstrate our solution on several temporally extended versions of toy POMDP problems as well as robotic manipulation of articulated objects using a neural perception frontend to construct a distribution of possible models. Our results show that STRUG outperforms the current sample-based online POMDP solvers on several tasks.

In this paper, we examine the problem of visibility-aware robot navigation among movable obstacles (VANAMO). A variant of the well-known NAMO robotic planning problem, VANAMO puts additional visibility constraints on robot motion and object movability. This new problem formulation lifts the restrictive assumption that the map is fully visible and the object positions are fully known. We provide a formal definition of the VANAMO problem and propose the Look and Manipulate Backchaining (LaMB) algorithm for solving such problems. LaMB has a simple vision-based API that makes it more easily transferable to real-world robot applications and scales to the large 3D environments. To evaluate LaMB, we construct a set of tasks that illustrate the complex interplay between visibility and object movability that can arise in mobile base manipulation problems in unknown environments. We show that LaMB outperforms NAMO and visibility-aware motion planning approaches as well as simple combinations of them on complex manipulation problems with partial observability.

Correctly recognizing the behaviors of children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is of vital importance for the diagnosis of Autism and timely early intervention. However, the observation and recording during the treatment from the parents of autistic children may not be accurate and objective. In such cases, automatic recognition systems based on computer vision and machine learning (in particular deep learning) technology can alleviate this issue to a large extent. Existing human action recognition models can now achieve persuasive performance on challenging activity datasets, e.g. daily activity, and sports activity. However, problem behaviors in children with ASD are very different from these general activities, and recognizing these problem behaviors via computer vision is less studied. In this paper, we first evaluate a strong baseline for action recognition, i.e. Video Swin Transformer, on two autism behaviors datasets (SSBD and ESBD) and show that it can achieve high accuracy and outperform the previous methods by a large margin, demonstrating the feasibility of vision-based problem behaviors recognition. Moreover, we propose language-assisted training to further enhance the action recognition performance. Specifically, we develop a two-branch multimodal deep learning framework by incorporating the "freely available" language description for each type of problem behavior. Experimental results demonstrate that incorporating additional language supervision can bring an obvious performance boost for the autism problem behaviors recognition task as compared to using the video information only (i.e. 3.49% improvement on ESBD and 1.46% on SSBD).

近年来，合成（或模拟）数据用于培训机器学习模型已迅速增长。通常，合成数据可以比其现实世界中的对应物更快，更便宜。但是，使用合成图像的一个挑战是场景设计：例如，内容及其特征和空间布置的选择。为了有效，该设计不仅必须现实，而且适合目标域，而目标域（通过假设）是未标记的。在这项工作中，我们提出了一种方法，可以自动根据未标记的现实世界图像选择合成图像的设计。我们的方法被称为神经 - 异位元模拟（NAM），建立在开创性的元模拟方法上。与当前的最新方法相反，我们的方法可以在离线后进行预训练，然后为新目标图像提供快速的设计推断。使用合成和现实世界中的问题，我们表明，NAMS不符合符合内域和室外目标成像的合成设计，并且具有NAMS设计的图像的训练分割模型与NA \ \ na \'相比，结果均优异。 IVE随机设计和最先进的元模拟方法。

自2016年成立以来，Alexa奖计划使数百名大学生能够通过Socialbot Grand Challenge探索和竞争以发展对话代理商。挑战的目的是建立能够与人类在流行主题上连贯而诱人的代理人20分钟，同时达到至少4.0/5.0的平均评分。但是，由于对话代理商试图帮助用户完成日益复杂的任务，因此需要新的对话AI技术和评估平台。成立于2021年的Alexa奖Taskbot Challenge建立在Socialbot Challenge的成功基础上，通过引入交互式协助人类进行现实世界烹饪和做自己动手做的任务的要求，同时同时使用语音和视觉方式。这项挑战要求TaskBots识别和理解用户的需求，识别和集成任务和域知识，并开发新的方式，不分散用户的注意力，而不必分散他们的任务，以及其他挑战。本文概述了Taskbot挑战赛，描述了使用Cobot Toolkit提供给团队提供的基础架构支持，并总结了参与团队以克服研究挑战所采取的方法。最后，它分析了比赛第一年的竞争任务机器人的性能。

在环境抽象中进行高级搜索来指导低水平决策，这是一种有效的方法，是解决连续状态和行动空间中的长途任务的有效方法。最近的工作表明，可以以符号操作员和神经采样器的形式学习使这种二聚体计划的动作抽象，并且鉴于实现已知目标的符号谓词和演示。在这项工作中，我们表明，在动作往往会导致大量谓词发生变化的环境中，现有的方法不足。为了解决这个问题，我们建议学习具有忽略效果的操作员。激发我们方法的关键思想是，对谓词的每一个观察到的变化进行建模是不必要的。唯一需要建模的更改是高级搜索以实现指定目标所需的更改。在实验上，我们表明我们的方法能够学习具有忽略六个混合机器人域效果的操作员，这些企业能够解决一个代理，以解决具有不同初始状态，目标和对象数量的新任务变化，比几个基线要高得多。

唇裂是一种先天性异常，需要专家手术修复。外科医生必须具有丰富的经验和理论知识才能进行手术，并且已经提出了人工智能（AI）方法来指导外科医生改善手术结局。如果可以使用AI来预测修复的唇唇的外观，那么外科医生可以将其用作辅助手术技术来调整其手术技术并改善结果。为了在保护患者隐私时探索这个想法的可行性，我们提出了一种基于深度学习的图像镶嵌方法，该方法能够覆盖唇裂，并产生唇彩，而无需裂缝。我们的实验是在两个现实世界中的裂口数据集上进行的，并由专家cleft唇外科医生评估，以证明该方法的可行性。
