由于其免费形式和丰富的信息，收入电话会议吸引了越来越多的研究人员。但是，现有的研究不考虑说话者角色信息。此外，当前的研究并未充分说明公司间关系对公司风险的影响。唯一整合公司网络和收益电话会议的研究是为在不同日期举行收益电话会议的公司构建的无向图表，未能满足没有针对预测任务的时间信息泄漏的要求。为了解决上述问题，我们提出了一个名为“时间虚拟图神经网络（TVGNN）”的新模型，该模型结合了收入电话会议和公司网络以预测公司风险。我们的模型首次将参与者角色信息包含在对话建模中。此外，我们开发了一种新方法来构建公司网络，以确保图表中没有时间信息泄漏。在实验中，我们提出的模型的表现优于所有基准。补充分析证明了该模型的有效性和解释性。

There is a growing interest in developing unlearnable examples (UEs) against visual privacy leaks on the Internet. UEs are training samples added with invisible but unlearnable noise, which have been found can prevent unauthorized training of machine learning models. UEs typically are generated via a bilevel optimization framework with a surrogate model to remove (minimize) errors from the original samples, and then applied to protect the data against unknown target models. However, existing UE generation methods all rely on an ideal assumption called label-consistency, where the hackers and protectors are assumed to hold the same label for a given sample. In this work, we propose and promote a more practical label-agnostic setting, where the hackers may exploit the protected data quite differently from the protectors. E.g., a m-class unlearnable dataset held by the protector may be exploited by the hacker as a n-class dataset. Existing UE generation methods are rendered ineffective in this challenging setting. To tackle this challenge, we present a novel technique called Unlearnable Clusters (UCs) to generate label-agnostic unlearnable examples with cluster-wise perturbations. Furthermore, we propose to leverage VisionandLanguage Pre-trained Models (VLPMs) like CLIP as the surrogate model to improve the transferability of the crafted UCs to diverse domains. We empirically verify the effectiveness of our proposed approach under a variety of settings with different datasets, target models, and even commercial platforms Microsoft Azure and Baidu PaddlePaddle.

The findable, accessible, interoperable, and reusable (FAIR) data principles have provided a framework for examining, evaluating, and improving how we share data with the aim of facilitating scientific discovery. Efforts have been made to generalize these principles to research software and other digital products. Artificial intelligence (AI) models -- algorithms that have been trained on data rather than explicitly programmed -- are an important target for this because of the ever-increasing pace with which AI is transforming scientific and engineering domains. In this paper, we propose a practical definition of FAIR principles for AI models and create a FAIR AI project template that promotes adherence to these principles. We demonstrate how to implement these principles using a concrete example from experimental high energy physics: a graph neural network for identifying Higgs bosons decaying to bottom quarks. We study the robustness of these FAIR AI models and their portability across hardware architectures and software frameworks, and report new insights on the interpretability of AI predictions by studying the interplay between FAIR datasets and AI models. Enabled by publishing FAIR AI models, these studies pave the way toward reliable and automated AI-driven scientific discovery.

The security of artificial intelligence (AI) is an important research area towards safe, reliable, and trustworthy AI systems. To accelerate the research on AI security, the Artificial Intelligence Security Competition (AISC) was organized by the Zhongguancun Laboratory, China Industrial Control Systems Cyber Emergency Response Team, Institute for Artificial Intelligence, Tsinghua University, and RealAI as part of the Zhongguancun International Frontier Technology Innovation Competition (https://www.zgc-aisc.com/en). The competition consists of three tracks, including Deepfake Security Competition, Autonomous Driving Security Competition, and Face Recognition Security Competition. This report will introduce the competition rules of these three tracks and the solutions of top-ranking teams in each track.

Video paragraph captioning aims to generate a multi-sentence description of an untrimmed video with several temporal event locations in coherent storytelling. Following the human perception process, where the scene is effectively understood by decomposing it into visual (e.g. human, animal) and non-visual components (e.g. action, relations) under the mutual influence of vision and language, we first propose a visual-linguistic (VL) feature. In the proposed VL feature, the scene is modeled by three modalities including (i) a global visual environment; (ii) local visual main agents; (iii) linguistic scene elements. We then introduce an autoregressive Transformer-in-Transformer (TinT) to simultaneously capture the semantic coherence of intra- and inter-event contents within a video. Finally, we present a new VL contrastive loss function to guarantee learnt embedding features are matched with the captions semantics. Comprehensive experiments and extensive ablation studies on ActivityNet Captions and YouCookII datasets show that the proposed Visual-Linguistic Transformer-in-Transform (VLTinT) outperforms prior state-of-the-art methods on accuracy and diversity.

The generation of Chinese fonts has a wide range of applications. The currently predominated methods are mainly based on deep generative models, especially the generative adversarial networks (GANs). However, existing GAN-based models usually suffer from the well-known mode collapse problem. When mode collapse happens, the kind of GAN-based models will be failure to yield the correct fonts. To address this issue, we introduce a one-bit stroke encoding and a few-shot semi-supervised scheme (i.e., using a few paired data as semi-supervised information) to explore the local and global structure information of Chinese characters respectively, motivated by the intuition that strokes and characters directly embody certain local and global modes of Chinese characters. Based on these ideas, this paper proposes an effective model called \textit{StrokeGAN+}, which incorporates the stroke encoding and the few-shot semi-supervised scheme into the CycleGAN model. The effectiveness of the proposed model is demonstrated by amounts of experiments. Experimental results show that the mode collapse issue can be effectively alleviated by the introduced one-bit stroke encoding and few-shot semi-supervised training scheme, and that the proposed model outperforms the state-of-the-art models in fourteen font generation tasks in terms of four important evaluation metrics and the quality of generated characters. Besides CycleGAN, we also show that the proposed idea can be adapted to other existing models to improve their performance. The effectiveness of the proposed model for the zero-shot traditional Chinese font generation is also evaluated in this paper.

As an efficient way to integrate multiple distributed energy resources and the user side, a microgrid is mainly faced with the problems of small-scale volatility, uncertainty, intermittency and demand-side uncertainty of DERs. The traditional microgrid has a single form and cannot meet the flexible energy dispatch between the complex demand side and the microgrid. In response to this problem, the overall environment of wind power, thermostatically controlled loads, energy storage systems, price-responsive loads and the main grid is proposed. Secondly, the centralized control of the microgrid operation is convenient for the control of the reactive power and voltage of the distributed power supply and the adjustment of the grid frequency. However, there is a problem in that the flexible loads aggregate and generate peaks during the electricity price valley. The existing research takes into account the power constraints of the microgrid and fails to ensure a sufficient supply of electric energy for a single flexible load. This paper considers the response priority of each unit component of TCLs and ESSs on the basis of the overall environment operation of the microgrid so as to ensure the power supply of the flexible load of the microgrid and save the power input cost to the greatest extent. Finally, the simulation optimization of the environment can be expressed as a Markov decision process process. It combines two stages of offline and online operations in the training process. The addition of multiple threads with the lack of historical data learning leads to low learning efficiency. The asynchronous advantage actor-critic with the experience replay pool memory library is added to solve the data correlation and nonstatic distribution problems during training.

When reading a story, humans can rapidly understand new fictional characters with a few observations, mainly by drawing analogy to fictional and real people they met before in their lives. This reflects the few-shot and meta-learning essence of humans' inference of characters' mental states, i.e., humans' theory-of-mind (ToM), which is largely ignored in existing research. We fill this gap with a novel NLP benchmark, TOM-IN-AMC, the first assessment of models' ability of meta-learning of ToM in a realistic narrative understanding scenario. Our benchmark consists of $\sim$1,000 parsed movie scripts for this purpose, each corresponding to a few-shot character understanding task; and requires models to mimic humans' ability of fast digesting characters with a few starting scenes in a new movie. Our human study verified that humans can solve our problem by inferring characters' mental states based on their previously seen movies; while the state-of-the-art metric-learning and meta-learning approaches adapted to our task lags 30% behind.

语义分割是开发医学图像诊断系统的重要任务。但是，构建注释的医疗数据集很昂贵。因此，在这种情况下，半监督方法很重要。在半监督学习中，标签的质量在模型性能中起着至关重要的作用。在这项工作中，我们提出了一种新的伪标签策略，可提高用于培训学生网络的伪标签的质量。我们遵循多阶段的半监督训练方法，该方法在标记的数据集上训练教师模型，然后使用训练有素的老师将伪标签渲染用于学生培训。通过这样做，伪标签将被更新，并且随着培训的进度更加精确。上一个和我们的方法之间的关键区别在于，我们在学生培训过程中更新教师模型。因此，在学生培训过程中，提高了伪标签的质量。我们还提出了一种简单但有效的策略，以使用动量模型来提高伪标签的质量 - 训练过程中原始模型的慢复制版本。通过应用动量模型与学生培训期间的重新渲染伪标签相结合，我们在五个数据集中平均达到了84.1％的骰子分数（即Kvarsir，CVC-ClinicdB，Etis-laribpolypdb，cvc-colondb，cvc-colondb，cvc-colondb和cvc-300）和CVC-300）只有20％的数据集用作标记数据。我们的结果超过了3％的共同实践，甚至在某些数据集中取得了完全监督的结果。我们的源代码和预培训模型可在https://github.com/sun-asterisk-research/online学习SSL上找到

激活函数是元素的数学函数，在深神经网络（DNN）中起着至关重要的作用。已经提出了许多新颖和复杂的激活功能来提高DNN的准确性，但在训练过程中还可以通过反向传播消耗大量记忆。在这项研究中，我们提出了嵌套的正向自动分化（正向AD），专门针对用于记忆效率的DNN训练的元素激活函数。我们在两个广泛使用的深度学习框架（Tensorflow和Pytorch）中部署了嵌套的AD，分别支持静态和动态计算图。我们的评估表明，在相同的记忆降低率下，嵌套的前AD嵌套将记忆足迹降低到1.97倍，比基线模型降低了20％。
