This paper presents a novel approach to Zero-Shot Action Recognition. Recent works have explored the detection and classification of objects to obtain semantic information from videos with remarkable performance. Inspired by them, we propose using video captioning methods to extract semantic information about objects, scenes, humans, and their relationships. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first work to represent both videos and labels with descriptive sentences. More specifically, we represent videos using sentences generated via video captioning methods and classes using sentences extracted from documents acquired through search engines on the Internet. Using these representations, we build a shared semantic space employing BERT-based embedders pre-trained in the paraphrasing task on multiple text datasets. The projection of both visual and semantic information onto this space is straightforward, as they are sentences, enabling classification using the nearest neighbor rule. We demonstrate that representing videos and labels with sentences alleviates the domain adaptation problem. Additionally, we show that word vectors are unsuitable for building the semantic embedding space of our descriptions. Our method outperforms the state-of-the-art performance on the UCF101 dataset by 3.3 p.p. in accuracy under the TruZe protocol and achieves competitive results on both the UCF101 and HMDB51 datasets under the conventional protocol (0/50\% - training/testing split).

This proposed model introduces novel deep learning methodologies. The objective here is to create a reliable intrusion detection mechanism to help identify malicious attacks. Deep learning based solution framework is developed consisting of three approaches. The first approach is Long-Short Term Memory Recurrent Neural Network (LSTM-RNN) with seven optimizer functions such as adamax, SGD, adagrad, adam, RMSprop, nadam and adadelta. The model is evaluated on NSL-KDD dataset and classified multi attack classification. The model has outperformed with adamax optimizer in terms of accuracy, detection rate and low false alarm rate. The results of LSTM-RNN with adamax optimizer is compared with existing shallow machine and deep learning models in terms of accuracy, detection rate and low false alarm rate. The multi model methodology consisting of Recurrent Neural Network (RNN), Long-Short Term Memory Recurrent Neural Network (LSTM-RNN), and Deep Neural Network (DNN). The multi models are evaluated on bench mark datasets such as KDD99, NSL-KDD, and UNSWNB15 datasets. The models self-learnt the features and classifies the attack classes as multi-attack classification. The models RNN, and LSTM-RNN provide considerable performance compared to other existing methods on KDD99 and NSL-KDD dataset
Supervised deep learning was recently introduced in high-contrast imaging (HCI) through the SODINN algorithm, a convolutional neural network designed for exoplanet detection in angular differential imaging (ADI) datasets. The benchmarking of HCI algorithms within the Exoplanet Imaging Data Challenge (EIDC) showed that (i) SODINN can produce a high number of false positives in the final detection maps, and (ii) algorithms processing images in a more local manner perform better. This work aims to improve the SODINN detection performance by introducing new local processing approaches and adapting its learning process accordingly. We propose NA-SODINN, a new deep learning binary classifier based on a convolutional neural network (CNN) that better captures image noise correlations in ADI-processed frames by identifying noise regimes. Our new approach was tested against its predecessor, as well as two SODINN-based hybrid models and a more standard annular-PCA approach, through local receiving operating characteristics (ROC) analysis of ADI sequences from the VLT/SPHERE and Keck/NIRC-2 instruments. Results show that NA-SODINN enhances SODINN in both sensitivity and specificity, especially in the speckle-dominated noise regime. NA-SODINN is also benchmarked against the complete set of submitted detection algorithms in EIDC, in which we show that its final detection score matches or outperforms the most powerful detection algorithms.Throughout the supervised machine learning case, this study illustrates and reinforces the importance of adapting the task of detection to the local content of processed images.
We investigate the link between regularised self-transport problems and maximum likelihood estimation in Gaussian mixture models (GMM). This link suggests that self-transport followed by a clustering technique leads to principled estimators at a reasonable computational cost. Also, robustness, sparsity and stability properties of the optimal transport plan arguably make the regularised self-transport a statistical tool of choice for the GMM.
In this series of works we establish homogenized lattice Boltzmann methods (HLBM) for the simulation of fluid flow through porous media. Our contributions in part I are twofold. First, we assemble the targeted partial differential equation system by formally unifying the governing equations for nonstationary fluid flow in porous media. To this end, a matrix of regularly arranged obstacles of equal size is placed into the domain to model fluid flow through structures of different porosities that is governed by the incompressible nonstationary Navier--Stokes equations. Depending on the ratio of geometric parameters in the matrix arrangement, several cases of homogenized equations are obtained. We review the existing methods to homogenize the nonstationary Navier--Stokes equations for specific porosities and interpret connections between the resulting model equations from the perspective of applicability. Consequently, the homogenized Navier--Stokes equations are formulated as targeted partial differential equations which jointly incorporate the derived aspects. Second, we propose a kinetic model, named homogenized Bhatnagar--Gross--Krook Boltzmann equation, which approximates the homogenized nonstationary Navier--Stokes equations. We formally prove that the zeroth and first order moments of the kinetic model provide solutions to the mass and momentum balance variables of the macrocopic model up to specific orders in the scaling parameter. Based on the present contributions, in the sequel (part II) the homogenized Navier--Stokes equations are consistently approximated by deriving a limit consistent HLBM discretization of the homogenized Bhatnagar--Gross--Krook Boltzmann equation.
This paper presents a novel approach to solving the Flying Sidekick Travelling Salesman Problem (FSTSP) using a state-of-the-art self-adaptive genetic algorithm. The Flying Sidekick Travelling Salesman Problem is a combinatorial optimisation problem that extends the Travelling Salesman Problem (TSP) by introducing the use of drones. In FSTSP, the objective is to minimise the total time to visit all locations while strategically deploying a drone to serve hard-to-reach customer locations. Also, to the best of my knowledge, this is the first time a self-adaptive genetic algorithm (GA) has been used to solve the FSTSP problem. Experimental results on smaller-sized problem instances demonstrate that this algorithm can find a higher quantity of optimal solutions and a lower percentage gap to the optimal solution compared to rival algorithms. Moreover, on larger-sized problem instances, this algorithm outperforms all rival algorithms on each problem size while maintaining a reasonably low computation time.
Recalling the most relevant visual memories for localisation or understanding a priori the likely outcome of localisation effort against a particular visual memory is useful for efficient and robust visual navigation. Solutions to this problem should be divorced from performance appraisal against ground truth - as this is not available at run-time - and should ideally be based on generalisable environmental observations. For this, we propose applying the recently developed Visual DNA as a highly scalable tool for comparing datasets of images - in this work, sequences of map and live experiences. In the case of localisation, important dataset differences impacting performance are modes of appearance change, including weather, lighting, and season. Specifically, for any deep architecture which is used for place recognition by matching feature volumes at a particular layer, we use distribution measures to compare neuron-wise activation statistics between live images and multiple previously recorded past experiences, with a potentially large seasonal (winter/summer) or time of day (day/night) shift. We find that differences in these statistics correlate to performance when localising using a past experience with the same appearance gap. We validate our approach over the Nordland cross-season dataset as well as data from Oxford's University Parks with lighting and mild seasonal change, showing excellent ability of our system to rank actual localisation performance across candidate experiences.
Vertical Federated Learning (VFL) has gained increasing attention as a novel training paradigm that integrates sample alignment and feature union. However, existing VFL methods face challenges when dealing with heterogeneous local models among participants, which affects optimization convergence and generalization. To address this issue, this paper proposes a novel approach called Vertical Federated learning for training Multi-parties Heterogeneous models (VFedMH). VFedMH focuses on aggregating the embeddings of each participant's knowledge instead of intermediate results during forward propagation. The active party, who possesses labels and features of the sample, in VFedMH securely aggregates local embeddings to obtain global knowledge embeddings, and sends them to passive parties. The passive parties, who own only features of the sample, then utilize the global embeddings to propagate forward on their local heterogeneous networks. However, the passive party does not own the labels, so the local model gradient cannot be calculated locally. To overcome this limitation, the active party assists the passive party in computing its local heterogeneous model gradients. Then, each participant trains their local model using the heterogeneous model gradients. The objective is to minimize the loss value of their respective local heterogeneous models. Additionally, the paper provides a theoretical analysis of VFedMH's convergence performance. Extensive experiments are conducted to demonstrate that VFedMH can simultaneously train multiple heterogeneous models with heterogeneous optimization and outperform some recent methods in model performance.
Retrieval-enhanced methods have become a primary approach in fact verification (FV); it requires reasoning over multiple retrieved pieces of evidence to verify the integrity of a claim. To retrieve evidence, existing work often employs off-the-shelf retrieval models whose design is based on the probability ranking principle. We argue that, rather than relevance, for FV we need to focus on the utility that a claim verifier derives from the retrieved evidence. We introduce the feedback-based evidence retriever(FER) that optimizes the evidence retrieval process by incorporating feedback from the claim verifier. As a feedback signal we use the divergence in utility between how effectively the verifier utilizes the retrieved evidence and the ground-truth evidence to produce the final claim label. Empirical studies demonstrate the superiority of FER over prevailing baselines.
This paper presents a novel approach to enhance the performance of binary code comment quality classification models through the application of Generative Artificial Intelligence (AI). By leveraging the OpenAI API, a dataset comprising 1239 newly generated code-comment pairs, extracted from various GitHub repositories and open-source projects, has been labelled as "Useful" or "Not Useful", and integrated into the existing corpus of 9048 pairs in the C programming language. Employing a cutting-edge Large Language Model Architecture, the generated dataset demonstrates notable improvements in model accuracy. Specifically, when incorporated into the Support Vector Machine (SVM) model, a 6% increase in precision is observed, rising from 0.79 to 0.85. Additionally, the Artificial Neural Network (ANN) model exhibits a 1.5% increase in recall, climbing from 0.731 to 0.746. This paper sheds light on the potential of Generative AI in augmenting code comment quality classification models. The results affirm the effectiveness of this methodology, indicating its applicability in broader contexts within software development and quality assurance domains. The findings underscore the significance of integrating generative techniques to advance the accuracy and efficacy of machine learning models in practical software engineering scenarios.
Recent work pre-training Transformers with self-supervised objectives on large text corpora has shown great success when fine-tuned on downstream NLP tasks including text summarization. However, pre-training objectives tailored for abstractive text summarization have not been explored. Furthermore there is a lack of systematic evaluation across diverse domains. In this work, we propose pre-training large Transformer-based encoder-decoder models on massive text corpora with a new self-supervised objective. In PEGASUS, important sentences are removed/masked from an input document and are generated together as one output sequence from the remaining sentences, similar to an extractive summary. We evaluated our best PEGASUS model on 12 downstream summarization tasks spanning news, science, stories, instructions, emails, patents, and legislative bills. Experiments demonstrate it achieves state-of-the-art performance on all 12 downstream datasets measured by ROUGE scores. Our model also shows surprising performance on low-resource summarization, surpassing previous state-of-the-art results on 6 datasets with only 1000 examples. Finally we validated our results using human evaluation and show that our model summaries achieve human performance on multiple datasets.
