Due to their ability to offer more comprehensive information than data from a single view, multi-view (multi-source, multi-modal, multi-perspective, etc.) data are being used more frequently in remote sensing tasks. However, as the number of views grows, the issue of data quality becomes more apparent, limiting the potential benefits of multi-view data. Although recent deep neural network (DNN) based models can learn the weight of data adaptively, a lack of research on explicitly quantifying the data quality of each view when fusing them renders these models inexplicable, performing unsatisfactorily and inflexible in downstream remote sensing tasks. To fill this gap, in this paper, evidential deep learning is introduced to the task of aerial-ground dual-view remote sensing scene classification to model the credibility of each view. Specifically, the theory of evidence is used to calculate an uncertainty value which describes the decision-making risk of each view. Based on this uncertainty, a novel decision-level fusion strategy is proposed to ensure that the view with lower risk obtains more weight, making the classification more credible. On two well-known, publicly available datasets of aerial-ground dual-view remote sensing images, the proposed approach achieves state-of-the-art results, demonstrating its effectiveness.

In this work, we present a new computer vision task named video object of interest segmentation (VOIS). Given a video and a target image of interest, our objective is to simultaneously segment and track all objects in the video that are relevant to the target image. This problem combines the traditional video object segmentation task with an additional image indicating the content that users are concerned with. Since no existing dataset is perfectly suitable for this new task, we specifically construct a large-scale dataset called LiveVideos, which contains 2418 pairs of target images and live videos with instance-level annotations. In addition, we propose a transformer-based method for this task. We revisit Swin Transformer and design a dual-path structure to fuse video and image features. Then, a transformer decoder is employed to generate object proposals for segmentation and tracking from the fused features. Extensive experiments on LiveVideos dataset show the superiority of our proposed method.

With the development of deep learning and Transformer-based pre-trained models like BERT, the accuracy of many NLP tasks has been dramatically improved. However, the large number of parameters and computations also pose challenges for their deployment. For instance, using BERT can improve the predictions in the financial sentiment analysis (FSA) task but slow it down, where speed and accuracy are equally important in terms of profits. To address these issues, we first propose an efficient and lightweight BERT (ELBERT) along with a novel confidence-window-based (CWB) early exit mechanism. Based on ELBERT, an innovative method to accelerate text processing on the GPU platform is developed, solving the difficult problem of making the early exit mechanism work more effectively with a large input batch size. Afterward, a fast and high-accuracy FSA system is built. Experimental results show that the proposed CWB early exit mechanism achieves significantly higher accuracy than existing early exit methods on BERT under the same computation cost. By using this acceleration method, our FSA system can boost the processing speed by nearly 40 times to over 1000 texts per second with sufficient accuracy, which is nearly twice as fast as FastBERT, thus providing a more powerful text processing capability for modern trading systems.

分散的学习对合作多代理增强学习（MARL）表现出了巨大的希望。但是，非平稳性仍然是分散学习的重大挑战。在论文中，我们以最简单和基本的方式解决了非平稳性问题，并提出\ textit {多代理替代Q学习}（MA2QL），在那里，代理商轮流通过Q学习来更新其Q-函数。MA2QL是完全分散合作MARL的一种\ Textit {Minimalist}方法，但理论上是基础的。我们证明，当每个代理商在每个回合都保证$ \ varepsilon $ -Convergence时，他们的联合政策会收敛到NASH平衡。实际上，MA2QL仅需要对独立Q学习（IQL）的最小变化。我们经验评估MA2QL对各种合作的多代理任务。结果表明，MA2QL始终胜过IQL，尽管这种变化很小，但它验证了MA2QL的有效性。

对象放置旨在将前景对象放在具有合适位置和大小的背景图像上。在这项工作中，我们将对象放置视为图形完成问题，并提出一个新的图形完成模块（GCM）。背景场景由一个图形表示，在不同的空间位置具有多个节点，并带有各种接收场。前景对象被编码为应插入该图中合理位置的特殊节点。我们还在GCM的结构上设计了一个双路径框架，以完全利用带注释的复合图像。通过在OPA数据集上进行广泛的实验，我们的方法证明在生成合理的对象放置而不会丧失多样性方面显着胜过现有的方法。

对象看起来和声音的方式提供了对其物理特性的互补反射。在许多设置中，视觉和试听的线索都异步到达，但必须集成，就像我们听到一个物体掉落在地板上，然后必须找到它时。在本文中，我们介绍了一个设置，用于研究3D虚拟环境中的多模式对象定位。一个物体在房间的某个地方掉落。配备了摄像头和麦克风的具体机器人剂必须通过将音频和视觉信号与知识的基础物理学结合来确定已删除的对象以及位置。为了研究此问题，我们生成了一个大规模数据集 - 倒下的对象数据集 - 其中包括64个房间中30个物理对象类别的8000个实例。该数据集使用Threedworld平台，该平台可以模拟基于物理的影响声音和在影片设置中对象之间的复杂物理交互。作为解决这一挑战的第一步，我们基于模仿学习，强化学习和模块化计划，开发了一组具体的代理基线，并对这项新任务的挑战进行了深入的分析。

我们呈现母语读者（NCR），这是一个新的机器阅读理解（MRC）数据集，在现代和古典中文中具有特别长的文章。来自中国高中课程的考试问题收集了NCR，旨在评估中国母语的语言能力。现有的中国MRC数据集是特定于域的或专注于现代中文中数百个字符的短文。相比之下，NCR包含8390个文件，平均长度为1024个字符，涵盖了各种中文写作风格，包括现代文章，古典文学和古典诗歌。总共有20477个关于这些文件的问题也需要强烈的推理能力和常识来弄清楚正确的答案。我们使用流行的中国预训练模型实现了多个基线模型，并使用我们的数据集推出了在线竞争，以检查当前方法的限制。最佳型号达到59％的测试精度，而人类评估则显示平均精度为79％，这表明当前MRC模型和母语扬声器之间的显着性能差距。我们在https://sites.google.com/view/native-chinese-reader/释放DataSet。

学习模当融合的表示和处理未对准的多模式序列在多式联情绪识别中是有意义的，具有挑战性。现有方法使用定向成对注意力或消息中心到熔丝语言，视觉和音频模态。然而，这些方法在融合特征时介绍信息冗余，并且在不考虑方式的互补性的情况下效率低效。在本文中，我们提出了一种高效的神经网络，以学习与CB变压器（LMR-CBT）的模型融合表示，用于从未对准的多模式序列进行多峰情绪识别。具体地，我们首先为三种方式执行特征提取，以获得序列的局部结构。然后，我们设计具有跨模块块（CB变压器）的新型变压器，其能够实现不同模式的互补学习，主要分为局部时间学习，跨模型特征融合和全球自我关注表示。此外，我们将融合功能与原始特征拼接以对序列的情绪进行分类。最后，我们在三个具有挑战性的数据集，IEMocap，CMU-MOSI和CMU-MOSEI进行词语对齐和未对准的实验。实验结果表明我们在两个设置中提出的方法的优势和效率。与主流方法相比，我们的方法以最小数量的参数达到最先进的。

Name ambiguity is common in academic digital libraries, such as multiple authors having the same name. This creates challenges for academic data management and analysis, thus name disambiguation becomes necessary. The procedure of name disambiguation is to divide publications with the same name into different groups, each group belonging to a unique author. A large amount of attribute information in publications makes traditional methods fall into the quagmire of feature selection. These methods always select attributes artificially and equally, which usually causes a negative impact on accuracy. The proposed method is mainly based on representation learning for heterogeneous networks and clustering and exploits the self-attention technology to solve the problem. The presentation of publications is a synthesis of structural and semantic representations. The structural representation is obtained by meta-path-based sampling and a skip-gram-based embedding method, and meta-path level attention is introduced to automatically learn the weight of each feature. The semantic representation is generated using NLP tools. Our proposal performs better in terms of name disambiguation accuracy compared with baselines and the ablation experiments demonstrate the improvement by feature selection and the meta-path level attention in our method. The experimental results show the superiority of our new method for capturing the most attributes from publications and reducing the impact of redundant information.

Fine-grained capturing of 3D HOI boosts human activity understanding and facilitates downstream visual tasks, including action recognition, holistic scene reconstruction, and human motion synthesis. Despite its significance, existing works mostly assume that humans interact with rigid objects using only a few body parts, limiting their scope. In this paper, we address the challenging problem of f-AHOI, wherein the whole human bodies interact with articulated objects, whose parts are connected by movable joints. We present CHAIRS, a large-scale motion-captured f-AHOI dataset, consisting of 16.2 hours of versatile interactions between 46 participants and 81 articulated and rigid sittable objects. CHAIRS provides 3D meshes of both humans and articulated objects during the entire interactive process, as well as realistic and physically plausible full-body interactions. We show the value of CHAIRS with object pose estimation. By learning the geometrical relationships in HOI, we devise the very first model that leverage human pose estimation to tackle the estimation of articulated object poses and shapes during whole-body interactions. Given an image and an estimated human pose, our model first reconstructs the pose and shape of the object, then optimizes the reconstruction according to a learned interaction prior. Under both evaluation settings (e.g., with or without the knowledge of objects' geometries/structures), our model significantly outperforms baselines. We hope CHAIRS will promote the community towards finer-grained interaction understanding. We will make the data/code publicly available.
