长期存在的辩论围绕着相关的假设，即低曲率的最小值更好地推广，而SGD则不鼓励曲率。我们提供更完整和细微的观点，以支持两者。首先，我们表明曲率通过两种新机制损害了测试性能，除了已知的参数搭配机制外，弯曲和偏置曲线除了偏置和偏置。尽管曲率不是，但对测试性能的三个曲率介导的贡献是重复的，尽管曲率不是。移位横向的变化是连接列车和测试局部最小值的线路，由于数据集采样或分布位移而差异。尽管在训练时间的转移尚不清楚，但仍可以通过最大程度地减少总体曲率来减轻横向横向。其次，我们得出了一种新的，明确的SGD稳态分布，表明SGD优化了与火车损失相关的有效潜力，并且SGD噪声介导了这种有效潜力的深层与低外生区域之间的权衡。第三，将我们的测试性能分析与SGD稳态相结合，表明，对于小的SGD噪声，移位膜可能是三种机制中最重要的。我们的实验证实了狂热对测试损失的影响，并进一步探索了SGD噪声与曲率之间的关系。

Language models have been shown to be very effective in predicting brain recordings of subjects experiencing complex language stimuli. For a deeper understanding of this alignment, it is important to understand the alignment between the detailed processing of linguistic information by the human brain versus language models. In NLP, linguistic probing tasks have revealed a hierarchy of information processing in neural language models that progresses from simple to complex with an increase in depth. On the other hand, in neuroscience, the strongest alignment with high-level language brain regions has consistently been observed in the middle layers. These findings leave an open question as to what linguistic information actually underlies the observed alignment between brains and language models. We investigate this question via a direct approach, in which we eliminate information related to specific linguistic properties in the language model representations and observe how this intervention affects the alignment with fMRI brain recordings obtained while participants listened to a story. We investigate a range of linguistic properties (surface, syntactic and semantic) and find that the elimination of each one results in a significant decrease in brain alignment across all layers of a language model. These findings provide direct evidence for the role of specific linguistic information in the alignment between brain and language models, and opens new avenues for mapping the joint information processing in both systems.

Multiple studies have focused on predicting the prospective popularity of an online document as a whole, without paying attention to the contributions of its individual parts. We introduce the task of proactively forecasting popularities of sentences within online news documents solely utilizing their natural language content. We model sentence-specific popularity forecasting as a sequence regression task. For training our models, we curate InfoPop, the first dataset containing popularity labels for over 1.7 million sentences from over 50,000 online news documents. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first dataset automatically created using streams of incoming search engine queries to generate sentence-level popularity annotations. We propose a novel transfer learning approach involving sentence salience prediction as an auxiliary task. Our proposed technique coupled with a BERT-based neural model exceeds nDCG values of 0.8 for proactive sentence-specific popularity forecasting. Notably, our study presents a non-trivial takeaway: though popularity and salience are different concepts, transfer learning from salience prediction enhances popularity forecasting. We release InfoPop and make our code publicly available: https://github.com/sayarghoshroy/InfoPopularity

Purpose: Tracking the 3D motion of the surgical tool and the patient anatomy is a fundamental requirement for computer-assisted skull-base surgery. The estimated motion can be used both for intra-operative guidance and for downstream skill analysis. Recovering such motion solely from surgical videos is desirable, as it is compliant with current clinical workflows and instrumentation. Methods: We present Tracker of Anatomy and Tool (TAToo). TAToo jointly tracks the rigid 3D motion of patient skull and surgical drill from stereo microscopic videos. TAToo estimates motion via an iterative optimization process in an end-to-end differentiable form. For robust tracking performance, TAToo adopts a probabilistic formulation and enforces geometric constraints on the object level. Results: We validate TAToo on both simulation data, where ground truth motion is available, as well as on anthropomorphic phantom data, where optical tracking provides a strong baseline. We report sub-millimeter and millimeter inter-frame tracking accuracy for skull and drill, respectively, with rotation errors below 1{\deg}. We further illustrate how TAToo may be used in a surgical navigation setting. Conclusion: We present TAToo, which simultaneously tracks the surgical tool and the patient anatomy in skull-base surgery. TAToo directly predicts the motion from surgical videos, without the need of any markers. Our results show that the performance of TAToo compares favorably to competing approaches. Future work will include fine-tuning of our depth network to reach a 1 mm clinical accuracy goal desired for surgical applications in the skull base.

The primary goal of this work is to study the effectiveness of an unsupervised domain adaptation approach for various applications such as binary classification and anomaly detection in the context of Alzheimer's disease (AD) detection for the OASIS datasets. We also explore image reconstruction and image synthesis for analyzing and generating 3D structural MRI data to establish performance benchmarks for anomaly detection. We successfully demonstrate that domain adaptation improves the performance of AD detection when implemented in both supervised and unsupervised settings. Additionally, the proposed methodology achieves state-of-the-art performance for binary classification on the OASIS-1 dataset.

Document summarization aims to create a precise and coherent summary of a text document. Many deep learning summarization models are developed mainly for English, often requiring a large training corpus and efficient pre-trained language models and tools. However, English summarization models for low-resource Indian languages are often limited by rich morphological variation, syntax, and semantic differences. In this paper, we propose GAE-ISumm, an unsupervised Indic summarization model that extracts summaries from text documents. In particular, our proposed model, GAE-ISumm uses Graph Autoencoder (GAE) to learn text representations and a document summary jointly. We also provide a manually-annotated Telugu summarization dataset TELSUM, to experiment with our model GAE-ISumm. Further, we experiment with the most publicly available Indian language summarization datasets to investigate the effectiveness of GAE-ISumm on other Indian languages. Our experiments of GAE-ISumm in seven languages make the following observations: (i) it is competitive or better than state-of-the-art results on all datasets, (ii) it reports benchmark results on TELSUM, and (iii) the inclusion of positional and cluster information in the proposed model improved the performance of summaries.

In this paper, we propose Adam-Hash: an adaptive and dynamic multi-resolution hashing data-structure for fast pairwise summation estimation. Given a data-set $X \subset \mathbb{R}^d$, a binary function $f:\mathbb{R}^d\times \mathbb{R}^d\to \mathbb{R}$, and a point $y \in \mathbb{R}^d$, the Pairwise Summation Estimate $\mathrm{PSE}_X(y) := \frac{1}{|X|} \sum_{x \in X} f(x,y)$. For any given data-set $X$, we need to design a data-structure such that given any query point $y \in \mathbb{R}^d$, the data-structure approximately estimates $\mathrm{PSE}_X(y)$ in time that is sub-linear in $|X|$. Prior works on this problem have focused exclusively on the case where the data-set is static, and the queries are independent. In this paper, we design a hashing-based PSE data-structure which works for the more practical \textit{dynamic} setting in which insertions, deletions, and replacements of points are allowed. Moreover, our proposed Adam-Hash is also robust to adaptive PSE queries, where an adversary can choose query $q_j \in \mathbb{R}^d$ depending on the output from previous queries $q_1, q_2, \dots, q_{j-1}$.

The emergence of large pretrained models has enabled language models to achieve superior performance in common NLP tasks, including language modeling and question answering, compared to previous static word representation methods. Augmenting these models with a retriever to retrieve the related text and documents as supporting information has shown promise in effectively solving NLP problems in a more interpretable way given that the additional knowledge is injected explicitly rather than being captured in the models' parameters. In spite of the recent progress, our analysis on retriever-augmented language models shows that this class of language models still lack reasoning over the retrieved documents. In this paper, we study the strengths and weaknesses of different retriever-augmented language models such as REALM, kNN-LM, FiD, ATLAS, and Flan-T5 in reasoning over the selected documents in different tasks. In particular, we analyze the reasoning failures of each of these models and study how the models' failures in reasoning are rooted in the retriever module as well as the language model.

This paper proposes a perception and path planning pipeline for autonomous racing in an unknown bounded course. The pipeline was initially created for the 2021 evGrandPrix autonomous division and was further improved for the 2022 event, both of which resulting in first place finishes. Using a simple LiDAR-based perception pipeline feeding into an occupancy grid based expansion algorithm, we determine a goal point to drive. This pipeline successfully achieved reliable and consistent laps in addition with occupancy grid algorithm to know the ways around a cone-defined track with an averaging speeds of 6.85 m/s over a distance 434.2 meters for a total lap time of 63.4 seconds.
