MIT researchers have developed a technique to train a machine-learning model for image classification, which does not require the use of a dataset. Instead, they use a “generative model” to produce synthetic data that is used to train an image classifier, which can then perform as well as or better than an image classifier trained using real data.
Technologies of object segmentation and tracking for autonomous driving jointly developed by the Korean research team and the research team of the University of Washington won the first place prize in an International competition of tracking objects in the field of autonomous driving.
With the prevalence of smart devices, billions of people are accessing digital resource in their daily life. Online user-behavior modeling, as such, has been actively researched in recent years. However, due to the data uncertainty (sparse-ness and skewness), traditional techniques suffer from certain drawbacks, such as relying on labor-intensive expertise or prior knowledge, lacking of interpretability and transparency, and expensive computational cost. As a step toward bridging the gap, this paper proposes a fuzzy-set based contrastive learning algorithm. The general idea is to design an end-to-end learning framework of optimizing representation from contrastive samples. The proposed algorithm is characterized by three main modules, including data augmentation, fuzzy encoder, and semi-supervised optimization. More precisely, data augmentation is used to produce contrastive (positive and negative) samples based on anchor ones. The fuzzy encoder is introduced to fuzzify (or encode) lat
