This paper explores the integration of Automated Guided Vehicles (AGVs) in warehouse order picking, a crucial and cost-intensive aspect of warehouse operations. The booming AGV industry, accelerated by the COVID-19 pandemic, is witnessing widespread adoption due to its efficiency, reliability, and cost-effectiveness in automating warehouse tasks. This paper focuses on enhancing the picker-to-parts system, prevalent in small to medium-sized warehouses, through the strategic use of AGVs. We discuss the benefits and applications of AGVs in various warehouse tasks, highlighting their transformative potential in improving operational efficiency. We examine the deployment of AGVs by leading companies in the industry, showcasing their varied functionalities in warehouse management. Addressing the gap in research on optimizing operational performance in hybrid environments where humans and AGVs coexist, our study delves into a dynamic picker-to-parts warehouse scenario. We propose a novel approach Neural Approximate Dynamic Programming approach for coordinating a mixed team of human and AGV workers, aiming to maximize order throughput and operational efficiency. This involves innovative solutions for non-myopic decision making, order batching, and battery management. We also discuss the integration of advanced robotics technology in automating the complete order-picking process. Through a comprehensive numerical study, our work offers valuable insights for managing a heterogeneous workforce in a hybrid warehouse setting, contributing significantly to the field of warehouse automation and logistics.

This paper proposes a novel method for demand forecasting in a pricing context. Here, modeling the causal relationship between price as an input variable to demand is crucial because retailers aim to set prices in a (profit) optimal manner in a downstream decision making problem. Our methods bring together the Double Machine Learning methodology for causal inference and state-of-the-art transformer-based forecasting models. In extensive empirical experiments, we show on the one hand that our method estimates the causal effect better in a fully controlled setting via synthetic, yet realistic data. On the other hand, we demonstrate on real-world data that our method outperforms forecasting methods in off-policy settings (i.e., when there's a change in the pricing policy) while only slightly trailing in the on-policy setting.

In this paper we propose a method for the optimal allocation of observations between an intrinsically explainable glass box model and a black box model. An optimal allocation being defined as one which, for any given explainability level (i.e. the proportion of observations for which the explainable model is the prediction function), maximizes the performance of the ensemble on the underlying task, and maximizes performance of the explainable model on the observations allocated to it, subject to the maximal ensemble performance condition. The proposed method is shown to produce such explainability optimal allocations on a benchmark suite of tabular datasets across a variety of explainable and black box model types. These learned allocations are found to consistently maintain ensemble performance at very high explainability levels (explaining $74\%$ of observations on average), and in some cases even outperforming both the component explainable and black box models while improving explainability.

This paper establishes the equivalence between Local Differential Privacy (LDP) and a global limit on learning any knowledge about an object. However, an output from an LDP query is not necessarily required to provide exact amount of knowledge equal to the upper bound of the learning limit. Since the amount of knowledge gain should be proportional to the incurred privacy loss, the traditional approach of using DP guarantee to measure privacy loss can occasionally overestimate the actual privacy loss. This is especially problematic in privacy accounting in LDP, where privacy loss is computed by accumulating the DP guarantees. To address this issue, this paper introduces the concept of \textit{realized privacy loss}, which measures the actual knowledge gained by the analyst after a query, as a more accurate measure of privacy loss. The realized privacy loss is integrated into the privacy accounting of fully adaptive composition, where an adversary adaptively selects queries based on previous results. Bayesian Privacy Filter is implemented to continually accept queries until the realized privacy loss of the composed queries equals the DP guarantee of the composition, allowing the full utilization of the privacy budget. Tracking the realized privacy loss during the composition is achieved through Bayesian Privacy Odometer, and the gap between the privacy budget and the realized privacy loss measures the leeway of the DP guarantee for future queries. A branch-and-bound method is devised to enable the Bayesian Privacy Filter to safeguard objects with continuous values. The Bayesian Privacy Filter is proven to be at least as efficient as the basic composition, and more efficient if the queries are privacy-loss compactible. Experimental results indicate that Bayesian Privacy Filter outperforms the basic composition by a factor of one to four when composing linear and logistic regressions.

This manuscript portrays optimization as a process. In many practical applications the environment is so complex that it is infeasible to lay out a comprehensive theoretical model and use classical algorithmic theory and mathematical optimization. It is necessary as well as beneficial to take a robust approach, by applying an optimization method that learns as one goes along, learning from experience as more aspects of the problem are observed. This view of optimization as a process has become prominent in varied fields and has led to some spectacular success in modeling and systems that are now part of our daily lives.

This paper presents a new approach for assembling graph neural networks based on framelet transforms. The latter provides a multi-scale representation for graph-structured data. With the framelet system, we can decompose the graph feature into low-pass and high-pass frequencies as extracted features for network training, which then defines a framelet-based graph convolution. The framelet decomposition naturally induces a graph pooling strategy by aggregating the graph feature into low-pass and high-pass spectra, which considers both the feature values and geometry of the graph data and conserves the total information. The graph neural networks with the proposed framelet convolution and pooling achieve state-of-the-art performance in many types of node and graph prediction tasks. Moreover, we propose shrinkage as a new activation for the framelet convolution, which thresholds the high-frequency information at different scales. Compared to ReLU, shrinkage in framelet convolution improves the graph neural network model in terms of denoising and signal compression: noises in both node and structure can be significantly reduced by accurately cutting off the high-pass coefficients from framelet decomposition, and the signal can be compressed to less than half its original size with the prediction performance well preserved.

The notion of "in-domain data" in NLP is often over-simplistic and vague, as textual data varies in many nuanced linguistic aspects such as topic, style or level of formality. In addition, domain labels are many times unavailable, making it challenging to build domain-specific systems. We show that massive pre-trained language models implicitly learn sentence representations that cluster by domains without supervision -- suggesting a simple data-driven definition of domains in textual data. We harness this property and propose domain data selection methods based on such models, which require only a small set of in-domain monolingual data. We evaluate our data selection methods for neural machine translation across five diverse domains, where they outperform an established approach as measured by both BLEU and by precision and recall of sentence selection with respect to an oracle.

External knowledge is often useful for natural language understanding tasks. We introduce a contextual text representation model called Conceptual-Contextual (CC) embeddings, which incorporates structured knowledge into text representations. Unlike entity embedding methods, our approach encodes a knowledge graph into a context model. CC embeddings can be easily reused for a wide range of tasks just like pre-trained language models. Our model effectively encodes the huge UMLS database by leveraging semantic generalizability. Experiments on electronic health records (EHRs) and medical text processing benchmarks showed our model gives a major boost to the performance of supervised medical NLP tasks.

Named entity recognition (NER) is the task to identify text spans that mention named entities, and to classify them into predefined categories such as person, location, organization etc. NER serves as the basis for a variety of natural language applications such as question answering, text summarization, and machine translation. Although early NER systems are successful in producing decent recognition accuracy, they often require much human effort in carefully designing rules or features. In recent years, deep learning, empowered by continuous real-valued vector representations and semantic composition through nonlinear processing, has been employed in NER systems, yielding stat-of-the-art performance. In this paper, we provide a comprehensive review on existing deep learning techniques for NER. We first introduce NER resources, including tagged NER corpora and off-the-shelf NER tools. Then, we systematically categorize existing works based on a taxonomy along three axes: distributed representations for input, context encoder, and tag decoder. Next, we survey the most representative methods for recent applied techniques of deep learning in new NER problem settings and applications. Finally, we present readers with the challenges faced by NER systems and outline future directions in this area.
