声带煎炸或吱吱作响的声音是指以不规则的发光开口和低音为特征的语音质量。它以各种语言发生，并且在美国英语中很普遍，不仅可以标记词组结局，还用于社会语言因素和影响。由于其不规则的周期性，吱吱作响的声音挑战自动语音处理和识别系统，尤其是对于经常使用吱吱作响的语言。本文提出了一个深度学习模型，以检测流利的语音中的吱吱作响的声音。该模型由编码器和经过训练的分类器组成。编码器采用原始波形，并使用卷积神经网络学习表示。分类器被实现为多头完全连接的网络，该网络训练有素，可检测吱吱作响的声音，发声和音调，最后两个用于完善吱吱作响的预测。该模型经过对美国英语说话者的言语的培训和测试，并由训练有素的语音家注释。我们使用两个编码器评估了系统的性能：一个是为任务量身定制的，另一个是基于最新的无监督表示。结果表明，与看不见的数据相比，我们表现最佳的系统的回忆和F1得分有所改善。

A new method for solving the wave equation is presented, called the learned Born series (LBS), which is derived from a convergent Born Series but its components are found through training. The LBS is shown to be significantly more accurate than the convergent Born series for the same number of iterations, in the presence of high contrast scatterers, while maintaining a comparable computational complexity. The LBS is able to generate a reasonable prediction of the global pressure field with a small number of iterations, and the errors decrease with the number of learned iterations.

Language-conditioned policies allow robots to interpret and execute human instructions. Learning such policies requires a substantial investment with regards to time and compute resources. Still, the resulting controllers are highly device-specific and cannot easily be transferred to a robot with different morphology, capability, appearance or dynamics. In this paper, we propose a sample-efficient approach for training language-conditioned manipulation policies that allows for rapid transfer across different types of robots. By introducing a novel method, namely Hierarchical Modularity, and adopting supervised attention across multiple sub-modules, we bridge the divide between modular and end-to-end learning and enable the reuse of functional building blocks. In both simulated and real world robot manipulation experiments, we demonstrate that our method outperforms the current state-of-the-art methods and can transfer policies across 4 different robots in a sample-efficient manner. Finally, we show that the functionality of learned sub-modules is maintained beyond the training process and can be used to introspect the robot decision-making process.

Large language models (LLMs) have been shown to be able to perform new tasks based on a few demonstrations or natural language instructions. While these capabilities have led to widespread adoption, most LLMs are developed by resource-rich organizations and are frequently kept from the public. As a step towards democratizing this powerful technology, we present BLOOM, a 176B-parameter open-access language model designed and built thanks to a collaboration of hundreds of researchers. BLOOM is a decoder-only Transformer language model that was trained on the ROOTS corpus, a dataset comprising hundreds of sources in 46 natural and 13 programming languages (59 in total). We find that BLOOM achieves competitive performance on a wide variety of benchmarks, with stronger results after undergoing multitask prompted finetuning. To facilitate future research and applications using LLMs, we publicly release our models and code under the Responsible AI License.

在本文中，我们讨论了通过模仿教授双人操作任务的框架。为此，我们提出了一种从人类示范中学习合规和接触良好的机器人行为的系统和算法。提出的系统结合了入学控制和机器学习的见解，以提取控制政策，这些政策可以（a）从时空和空间中恢复并适应各种干扰，同时（b）有效利用与环境的物理接触。我们使用现实世界中的插入任务证明了方法的有效性，该任务涉及操纵对象和插入钉之间的多个同时接触。我们还研究了为这种双人设置收集培训数据的有效方法。为此，我们进行了人类受试者的研究，并分析用户报告的努力和精神需求。我们的实验表明，尽管很难提供，但在遥控演示中可用的其他力/扭矩信息对于阶段估计和任务成功至关重要。最终，力/扭矩数据大大提高了操纵鲁棒性，从而在多点插入任务中获得了90％的成功率。可以在https://bimanualmanipulation.com/上找到代码和视频

综合照片 - 现实图像和视频是计算机图形的核心，并且是几十年的研究焦点。传统上，使用渲染算法（如光栅化或射线跟踪）生成场景的合成图像，其将几何形状和材料属性的表示为输入。统称，这些输入定义了实际场景和呈现的内容，并且被称为场景表示（其中场景由一个或多个对象组成）。示例场景表示是具有附带纹理的三角形网格（例如，由艺术家创建），点云（例如，来自深度传感器），体积网格（例如，来自CT扫描）或隐式曲面函数（例如，截短的符号距离）字段）。使用可分辨率渲染损耗的观察结果的这种场景表示的重建被称为逆图形或反向渲染。神经渲染密切相关，并将思想与经典计算机图形和机器学习中的思想相结合，以创建用于合成来自真实观察图像的图像的算法。神经渲染是朝向合成照片现实图像和视频内容的目标的跨越。近年来，我们通过数百个出版物显示了这一领域的巨大进展，这些出版物显示了将被动组件注入渲染管道的不同方式。这种最先进的神经渲染进步的报告侧重于将经典渲染原则与学习的3D场景表示结合的方法，通常现在被称为神经场景表示。这些方法的一个关键优势在于它们是通过设计的3D-一致，使诸如新颖的视点合成捕获场景的应用。除了处理静态场景的方法外，我们还涵盖了用于建模非刚性变形对象的神经场景表示...

可微分的模拟器是一个新兴的概念，其中包括几个领域的应用，从加固学习到最佳控制。它们的显着特征是能够在输入参数上计算分析梯度。与神经网络一样，通过构成称为层的若干构建块而构建，模拟通常需要计算操作员的输出，其本身可以将其自身分解成在一起的基本单元。虽然神经网络的每层代表特定的离散操作，但是相同的操作员可以具有多个表示，这取决于所采用的离散化和需要解决的研究问题。这里，我们提出了一种简单的设计模式来构造可分辨率的运算符和离散化的库，通过代表运算符作为连续功能的家庭之间的映射，由有限载体参数化。我们展示了声学优化问题上的方法，其中使用傅立叶光谱方法离散化的亥姆霍兹方程，并且使用梯度下降来说明可分辨率，以优化声透镜的声音速度。建议的框架是开放的，可用于\ url {https:/github.com/ucl-bug/jaxdf}

Extracting complex structures from grid-based data is a common key step in automated medical image analysis. The conventional solution to recovering tree-structured geometries typically involves computing the minimal cost path through intermediate representations derived from segmentation masks. However, this methodology has significant limitations in the context of projective imaging of tree-structured 3D anatomical data such as coronary arteries, since there are often overlapping branches in the 2D projection. In this work, we propose a novel approach to predicting tree connectivity structure which reformulates the task as an optimization problem over individual steps of a recursive process. We design and train a two-stage model which leverages the UNet and Transformer architectures and introduces an image-based prompting technique. Our proposed method achieves compelling results on a pair of synthetic datasets, and outperforms a shortest-path baseline.

New architecture GPUs like A100 are now equipped with multi-instance GPU (MIG) technology, which allows the GPU to be partitioned into multiple small, isolated instances. This technology provides more flexibility for users to support both deep learning training and inference workloads, but efficiently utilizing it can still be challenging. The vision of this paper is to provide a more comprehensive and practical benchmark study for MIG in order to eliminate the need for tedious manual benchmarking and tuning efforts. To achieve this vision, the paper presents MIGPerf, an open-source tool that streamlines the benchmark study for MIG. Using MIGPerf, the authors conduct a series of experiments, including deep learning training and inference characterization on MIG, GPU sharing characterization, and framework compatibility with MIG. The results of these experiments provide new insights and guidance for users to effectively employ MIG, and lay the foundation for further research on the orchestration of hybrid training and inference workloads on MIGs. The code and results are released on https://github.com/MLSysOps/MIGProfiler. This work is still in progress and more results will be published soon.
