  • A Monotone Approximate Dynamic Programming Approach for the Stochastic Scheduling, Allocation, and Inventory Replenishment Problem: Applications to Drone and Electric Vehicle Battery Swap Stations. (arXiv:2105.07026v1 [math.OC])
    There is a growing interest in using electric vehicles (EVs) and drones for many applications. However, battery-oriented issues, including range anxiety and battery degradation, impede adoption. Battery swap stations are one alternative to reduce these concerns that allow the swap of depleted for full batteries in minutes. We consider the problem of deriving actions at […]
  • Explicit Semantic Cross Feature Learning via Pre-trained Graph Neural Networks for CTR Prediction. (arXiv:2105.07752v1 [cs.AI])
    Cross features play an important role in click-through rate (CTR) prediction. Most of the existing methods adopt a DNN-based model to capture the cross features in an implicit manner. These implicit methods may lead to a sub-optimized performance due to the limitation in explicit semantic modeling. Although traditional statistical explicit semantic cross features can address […]
  • HDR Environment Map Estimation for Real-Time Augmented Reality. (arXiv:2011.10687v3 [cs.CV] UPDATED)
    We present a method to estimate an HDR environment map from a narrow field-of-view LDR camera image in real-time. This enables perceptually appealing reflections and shading on virtual objects of any material finish, from mirror to diffuse, rendered into a real physical environment using augmented reality. Our method is based on our efficient convolutional neural […]
  • ControlFlag: A Self-Supervised Idiosyncratic Pattern Detection System for Software Control Structures. (arXiv:2011.03616v5 [cs.SE] UPDATED)
    Software debugging has been shown to utilize upwards of half of developers' time. Yet, machine programming (MP), the field concerned with the automation of software (and hardware) development, has recently made strides in both research and production-quality automated debugging systems. In this paper we present ControlFlag, a self-supervised MP system that aims to improve debugging […]
  • New Ideas for Brain Modelling 7. (arXiv:2011.02223v2 [cs.AI] UPDATED)
    This paper updates the cognitive model, firstly by creating two systems and then unifying them over the same structure. It represents information at the semantic level only, where labelled patterns are aggregated into a 'type-set-match' form. It is described that the aggregations can be used to match across regions with potentially different functionality and therefore […]
  • Decoupling Representation Learning from Reinforcement Learning. (arXiv:2009.08319v3 [cs.LG] UPDATED)
    In an effort to overcome limitations of reward-driven feature learning in deep reinforcement learning (RL) from images, we propose decoupling representation learning from policy learning. To this end, we introduce a new unsupervised learning (UL) task, called Augmented Temporal Contrast (ATC), which trains a convolutional encoder to associate pairs of observations separated by a short […]
  • Solving Challenging Dexterous Manipulation Tasks With Trajectory Optimisation and Reinforcement Learning. (arXiv:2009.05104v2 [cs.RO] UPDATED)
    Training agents to autonomously learn how to use anthropomorphic robotic hands has the potential to lead to systems capable of performing a multitude of complex manipulation tasks in unstructured and uncertain environments. In this work, we first introduce a suite of challenging simulated manipulation tasks that current reinforcement learning and trajectory optimisation techniques find difficult. […]
  • On the Nature and Types of Anomalies: A Review of Deviations in Data. (arXiv:2007.15634v3 [cs.DB] UPDATED)
    Anomalies are occurrences in a dataset that are in some way unusual and do not fit the general patterns. The concept of the anomaly is usually ill-defined and perceived as vague and domain-dependent. Moreover, despite some 250 years of publications on the topic, no comprehensive and concrete overviews of the different types of anomalies have […]
  • A Novel Framework for Selection of GANs for an Application. (arXiv:2002.08641v2 [cs.LG] UPDATED)
    Generative Adversarial Network (GAN) is a current focal point of research.

We provide a comprehensive summary of the evolution of GANs starting from its inception addressing issues like mode collapse, vanishing gradient, unstable training and […]
