前列腺癌是美国男人的第二致致命癌症。虽然磁共振成像（MRI）越来越多地用于引导前列腺癌诊断的靶向活组织检查，但其效用仍然受到限制，因为假阳性和假否定的高率以及较低的读者协议。机器学习方法在前列腺MRI上检测和定位癌症可以帮助标准化放射科学诠释。然而，现有的机器学习方法不仅在模型架构中不等，而且还可以在用于模型培训的地面真理标签策略中。在这项研究中，我们比较不同的标记策略，即病理证实放射科标签，整个安装组织病理学图像上的病理学家标签，以及病变水平和像素级数字病理学家标签（先前验证了组织病理学图像上的深层学习算法以预测像素 - 整个安装组织病理学图像上的Gleason模式）。我们分析这些标签对训练有素的机器学习模型的性能的影响。我们的实验表明，用它们培训的（1）放射科标签和模型可能会错过癌症，或低估癌症程度，（2）与他们培训的数字病理学家标签和模型与病理学家标签有高度的一致性，而（3）用数字病理学家培训的模型标签在两种不同疾病分布的两种不同群组中达到最佳性能，而不管使用的模型建筑如何。数字病理学家标签可以减少与人类注释相关的挑战，包括劳动力，时间，和读者间变异性，并且可以通过使可靠的机器学习模型进行培训来检测和定位前列腺癌，帮助弥合前列腺放射学和病理学之间的差距在MRI。

Artificial intelligence methods including deep neural networks (DNN) can provide rapid molecular classification of tumors from routine histology with accuracy that matches or exceeds human pathologists. Discerning how neural networks make their predictions remains a significant challenge, but explainability tools help provide insights into what models have learned when corresponding histologic features are poorly defined. Here, we present a method for improving explainability of DNN models using synthetic histology generated by a conditional generative adversarial network (cGAN). We show that cGANs generate high-quality synthetic histology images that can be leveraged for explaining DNN models trained to classify molecularly-subtyped tumors, exposing histologic features associated with molecular state. Fine-tuning synthetic histology through class and layer blending illustrates nuanced morphologic differences between tumor subtypes. Finally, we demonstrate the use of synthetic histology for augmenting pathologist-in-training education, showing that these intuitive visualizations can reinforce and improve understanding of histologic manifestations of tumor biology.

语音神经调节物有可能为患有扰动或休闲症的人提供沟通。最近的进展已经证明了从放置在皮质表面上的电加电网的高质量文本解码和语音合成。在这里，我们研究了较少的侵入性测量模态，即立体定向脑电图（SEEG），其提供来自多个脑区的稀疏抽样，包括皮质区域。为了评估Seeg是否也可用于综合神经录音的高质量音频，我们采用了一种基于现代深度学习方法的经常性编码器 - 解码器框架。我们证明，尽管有限的训练数据，但是可以从这些微创录音来重建高质量的言论。最后，我们利用变分特征丢失来成功识别最具信息丰富的电极触点。

随着真实世界量子计算的出现，参数化量子计算可以用作量子古典机器学习系统中的假设家庭的想法正在增加牵引力的增加。这种混合系统已经表现出潜力在监督和生成学习中解决现实世界任务，最近的作品已经在特殊的人工任务中建立了他们可提供的优势。然而，在加强学习的情况下，可以说是最具挑战性的，并且学习提升将是极为有价值的，在解决甚至标准的基准测试方面没有成功地取得了成功，也没有在典型算法上表达理论上的学习优势。在这项工作中，我们均达到两者。我们提出了一种使用很少的Qubits的混合量子古典强化学习模型，我们展示了可以有效地培训，以解决若干标准基准环境。此外，我们展示和正式证明，参数化量子电路解决了用于古典模型的棘手的某些学习任务的能力，包括当前最先进的深神经网络，在离散对数问题的广泛的经典硬度下。

FIG. 1. Schematic diagram of a Variational Quantum Algorithm (VQA). The inputs to a VQA are: a cost function C(θ), with θ a set of parameters that encodes the solution to the problem, an ansatz whose parameters are trained to minimize the cost, and (possibly) a set of training data {ρ k } used during the optimization. Here, the cost can often be expressed in the form in Eq. ( 3), for some set of functions {f k }. Also, the ansatz is shown as a parameterized quantum circuit (on the left), which is analogous to a neural network (also shown schematically on the right). At each iteration of the loop one uses a quantum computer to efficiently estimate the cost (or its gradients). This information is fed into a classical computer that leverages the power of optimizers to navigate the cost landscape C(θ) and solve the optimization problem in Eq. ( 1). Once a termination condition is met, the VQA outputs an estimate of the solution to the problem. The form of the output depends on the precise task at hand. The red box indicates some of the most common types of outputs.

Migraine is a high-prevalence and disabling neurological disorder. However, information migraine management in real-world settings could be limited to traditional health information sources. In this paper, we (i) verify that there is substantial migraine-related chatter available on social media (Twitter and Reddit), self-reported by migraine sufferers; (ii) develop a platform-independent text classification system for automatically detecting self-reported migraine-related posts, and (iii) conduct analyses of the self-reported posts to assess the utility of social media for studying this problem. We manually annotated 5750 Twitter posts and 302 Reddit posts. Our system achieved an F1 score of 0.90 on Twitter and 0.93 on Reddit. Analysis of information posted by our 'migraine cohort' revealed the presence of a plethora of relevant information about migraine therapies and patient sentiments associated with them. Our study forms the foundation for conducting an in-depth analysis of migraine-related information using social media data.

The availability of frequent and cost-free satellite images is in growing demand in the research world. Such satellite constellations as Landsat 8 and Sentinel-2 provide a massive amount of valuable data daily. However, the discrepancy in the sensors' characteristics of these satellites makes it senseless to use a segmentation model trained on either dataset and applied to another, which is why domain adaptation techniques have recently become an active research area in remote sensing. In this paper, an experiment of domain adaptation through style-transferring is conducted using the HRSemI2I model to narrow the sensor discrepancy between Landsat 8 and Sentinel-2. This paper's main contribution is analyzing the expediency of that approach by comparing the results of segmentation using domain-adapted images with those without adaptation. The HRSemI2I model, adjusted to work with 6-band imagery, shows significant intersection-over-union performance improvement for both mean and per class metrics. A second contribution is providing different schemes of generalization between two label schemes - NALCMS 2015 and CORINE. The first scheme is standardization through higher-level land cover classes, and the second is through harmonization validation in the field.

Recently, there has been an interest in improving the resources available in Intrusion Detection System (IDS) techniques. In this sense, several studies related to cybersecurity show that the environment invasions and information kidnapping are increasingly recurrent and complex. The criticality of the business involving operations in an environment using computing resources does not allow the vulnerability of the information. Cybersecurity has taken on a dimension within the universe of indispensable technology in corporations, and the prevention of risks of invasions into the environment is dealt with daily by Security teams. Thus, the main objective of the study was to investigate the Ensemble Learning technique using the Stacking method, supported by the Support Vector Machine (SVM) and k-Nearest Neighbour (kNN) algorithms aiming at an optimization of the results for DDoS attack detection. For this, the Intrusion Detection System concept was used with the application of the Data Mining and Machine Learning Orange tool to obtain better results

In this paper, we consider the problem of adjusting the exploration rate when using value-of-information-based exploration. We do this by converting the value-of-information optimization into a problem of finding equilibria of a flow for a changing exploration rate. We then develop an efficient path-following scheme for converging to these equilibria and hence uncovering optimal action-selection policies. Under this scheme, the exploration rate is automatically adapted according to the agent's experiences. Global convergence is theoretically assured. We first evaluate our exploration-rate adaptation on the Nintendo GameBoy games Centipede and Millipede. We demonstrate aspects of the search process. We show that our approach yields better policies in fewer episodes than conventional search strategies relying on heuristic, annealing-based exploration-rate adjustments. We then illustrate that these trends hold for deep, value-of-information-based agents that learn to play ten simple games and over forty more complicated games for the Nintendo GameBoy system. Performance either near or well above the level of human play is observed.

Generating realistic motions for digital humans is a core but challenging part of computer animations and games, as human motions are both diverse in content and rich in styles. While the latest deep learning approaches have made significant advancements in this domain, they mostly consider motion synthesis and style manipulation as two separate problems. This is mainly due to the challenge of learning both motion contents that account for the inter-class behaviour and styles that account for the intra-class behaviour effectively in a common representation. To tackle this challenge, we propose a denoising diffusion probabilistic model solution for styled motion synthesis. As diffusion models have a high capacity brought by the injection of stochasticity, we can represent both inter-class motion content and intra-class style behaviour in the same latent. This results in an integrated, end-to-end trained pipeline that facilitates the generation of optimal motion and exploration of content-style coupled latent space. To achieve high-quality results, we design a multi-task architecture of diffusion model that strategically generates aspects of human motions for local guidance. We also design adversarial and physical regulations for global guidance. We demonstrate superior performance with quantitative and qualitative results and validate the effectiveness of our multi-task architecture.
