The act of selection plays a leading role in the design process and in the definition of personal style. This work introduces visual selection catalogs into parametric design environments. A two-fold contribution is presented: (i) guidelines for construction of a minimal-bias visual selection catalog from a parametric space, and (ii) Inbetween, a catalog for a parametric typeface that adheres to the guidelines, allows for font selection from a continuous design space, and enables the investigation of personal style. A user study conducted among graphic designers, revealed self-coherent characteristics in selection patterns, and a high correlation in selection patterns within tasks. These findings suggest that such patterns reflect personal user styles, formalizing the style selection process as traversals of decision trees. Together, our guidelines and catalog aid in making visual selection a key building block in the digital creation process and validate selection processes as a measure of personal style.

Introduction: Hand function is a central determinant of independence after stroke. Measuring hand use in the home environment is necessary to evaluate the impact of new interventions, and calls for novel wearable technologies. Egocentric video can capture hand-object interactions in context, as well as show how more-affected hands are used during bilateral tasks (for stabilization or manipulation). Automated methods are required to extract this information. Objective: To use artificial intelligence-based computer vision to classify hand use and hand role from egocentric videos recorded at home after stroke. Methods: Twenty-one stroke survivors participated in the study. A random forest classifier, a SlowFast neural network, and the Hand Object Detector neural network were applied to identify hand use and hand role at home. Leave-One-Subject-Out-Cross-Validation (LOSOCV) was used to evaluate the performance of the three models. Between-group differences of the models were calculated based on the Mathews correlation coefficient (MCC). Results: For hand use detection, the Hand Object Detector had significantly higher performance than the other models. The macro average MCCs using this model in the LOSOCV were 0.50 +- 0.23 for the more-affected hands and 0.58 +- 0.18 for the less-affected hands. Hand role classification had macro average MCCs in the LOSOCV that were close to zero for all models. Conclusion: Using egocentric video to capture the hand use of stroke survivors at home is feasible. Pose estimation to track finger movements may be beneficial to classifying hand roles in the future.

The proliferation of automated data collection schemes and the advances in sensorics are increasing the amount of data we are able to monitor in real-time. However, given the high annotation costs and the time required by quality inspections, data is often available in an unlabeled form. This is fostering the use of active learning for the development of soft sensors and predictive models. In production, instead of performing random inspections to obtain product information, labels are collected by evaluating the information content of the unlabeled data. Several query strategy frameworks for regression have been proposed in the literature but most of the focus has been dedicated to the static pool-based scenario. In this work, we propose a new strategy for the stream-based scenario, where instances are sequentially offered to the learner, which must instantaneously decide whether to perform the quality check to obtain the label or discard the instance. The approach is inspired by the optimal experimental design theory and the iterative aspect of the decision-making process is tackled by setting a threshold on the informativeness of the unlabeled data points. The proposed approach is evaluated using numerical simulations and the Tennessee Eastman Process simulator. The results confirm that selecting the examples suggested by the proposed algorithm allows for a faster reduction in the prediction error.

3D point cloud semantic segmentation is fundamental for autonomous driving. Most approaches in the literature neglect an important aspect, i.e., how to deal with domain shift when handling dynamic scenes. This can significantly hinder the navigation capabilities of self-driving vehicles. This paper advances the state of the art in this research field. Our first contribution consists in analysing a new unexplored scenario in point cloud segmentation, namely Source-Free Online Unsupervised Domain Adaptation (SF-OUDA). We experimentally show that state-of-the-art methods have a rather limited ability to adapt pre-trained deep network models to unseen domains in an online manner. Our second contribution is an approach that relies on adaptive self-training and geometric-feature propagation to adapt a pre-trained source model online without requiring either source data or target labels. Our third contribution is to study SF-OUDA in a challenging setup where source data is synthetic and target data is point clouds captured in the real world. We use the recent SynLiDAR dataset as a synthetic source and introduce two new synthetic (source) datasets, which can stimulate future synthetic-to-real autonomous driving research. Our experiments show the effectiveness of our segmentation approach on thousands of real-world point clouds. Code and synthetic datasets are available at //github.com/saltoricristiano/gipso-sfouda.

Let $\mathbf{H}$ be the Cartesian product of a family of finite abelian groups. Via a polynomial approach, we give sufficient conditions for a partition of $\mathbf{H}$ induced by weighted poset metric to be reflexive, which also become necessary for some special cases. Moreover, by examining the roots of the Krawtchouk polynomials, we establish non-reflexive partitions of $\mathbf{H}$ induced by combinatorial metric. When $\mathbf{H}$ is a vector space over a finite field $\mathbb{F}$, we consider the property of admitting MacWilliams identity (PAMI) and the MacWilliams extension property (MEP) for partitions of $\mathbf{H}$. With some invariance assumptions, we show that two partitions of $\mathbf{H}$ admit MacWilliams identity if and only if they are mutually dual and reflexive, and any partition of $\mathbf{H}$ satisfying the MEP is in fact an orbit partition induced by some subgroup of $\Aut_{\mathbb{F}}(\mathbf{H})$, which is necessarily reflexive. As an application of the aforementioned results, we establish partitions of $\mathbf{H}$ induced by combinatorial metric that do not satisfy the MEP, which further enable us to provide counter-examples to a conjecture proposed by Pinheiro, Machado and Firer in \cite{39}.

Purpose of Review: Negative controls are a powerful tool to detect and adjust for bias in epidemiological research. This paper introduces negative controls to a broader audience and provides guidance on principled design and causal analysis based on a formal negative control framework. Recent Findings: We review and summarize causal and statistical assumptions, practical strategies, and validation criteria that can be combined with subject matter knowledge to perform negative control analyses. We also review existing statistical methodologies for detection, reduction, and correction of confounding bias, and briefly discuss recent advances towards nonparametric identification of causal effects in a double negative control design. Summary: There is great potential for valid and accurate causal inference leveraging contemporary healthcare data in which negative controls are routinely available. Design and analysis of observational data leveraging negative controls is an area of growing interest in health and social sciences. Despite these developments, further effort is needed to disseminate these novel methods to ensure they are adopted by practicing epidemiologists.

Visual representation learning is the key of solving various vision problems. Relying on the seminal grid structure priors, convolutional neural networks (CNNs) have been the de facto standard architectures of most deep vision models. For instance, classical semantic segmentation methods often adopt a fully-convolutional network (FCN) with an encoder-decoder architecture. The encoder progressively reduces the spatial resolution and learns more abstract visual concepts with larger receptive fields. Since context modeling is critical for segmentation, the latest efforts have been focused on increasing the receptive field, through either dilated (i.e., atrous) convolutions or inserting attention modules. However, the FCN-based architecture remains unchanged. In this paper, we aim to provide an alternative perspective by treating visual representation learning generally as a sequence-to-sequence prediction task. Specifically, we deploy a pure Transformer to encode an image as a sequence of patches, without local convolution and resolution reduction. With the global context modeled in every layer of the Transformer, stronger visual representation can be learned for better tackling vision tasks. In particular, our segmentation model, termed as SEgmentation TRansformer (SETR), excels on ADE20K (50.28% mIoU, the first position in the test leaderboard on the day of submission), Pascal Context (55.83% mIoU) and reaches competitive results on Cityscapes. Further, we formulate a family of Hierarchical Local-Global (HLG) Transformers characterized by local attention within windows and global-attention across windows in a hierarchical and pyramidal architecture. Extensive experiments show that our method achieves appealing performance on a variety of visual recognition tasks (e.g., image classification, object detection and instance segmentation and semantic segmentation).

A permanently increasing number of on-board automotive control systems requires new approaches to their digital mapping that improves functionality in terms of adaptability and robustness as well as enables their easier on-line software update. As it can be concluded from many recent studies, various methods applying neural networks (NN) can be good candidates for relevant digital twin (DT) tools in automotive control system design, for example, for controller parameterization and condition monitoring. However, the NN-based DT has strong requirements to an adequate amount of data to be used in training and design. In this regard, the paper presents an approach, which demonstrates how the regression tasks can be efficiently handled by the modeling of a semi-active shock absorber within the DT framework. The approach is based on the adaptation of time series augmentation techniques to the stationary data that increases the variance of the latter. Such a solution gives a background to elaborate further data engineering methods for the data preparation of sophisticated databases.

Feature selection is an important process in machine learning. It builds an interpretable and robust model by selecting the features that contribute the most to the prediction target. However, most mature feature selection algorithms, including supervised and semi-supervised, fail to fully exploit the complex potential structure between features. We believe that these structures are very important for the feature selection process, especially when labels are lacking and data is noisy. To this end, we innovatively introduce a deep learning-based self-supervised mechanism into feature selection problems, namely batch-Attention-based Self-supervision Feature Selection(A-SFS). Firstly, a multi-task self-supervised autoencoder is designed to uncover the hidden structure among features with the support of two pretext tasks. Guided by the integrated information from the multi-self-supervised learning model, a batch-attention mechanism is designed to generate feature weights according to batch-based feature selection patterns to alleviate the impacts introduced by a handful of noisy data. This method is compared to 14 major strong benchmarks, including LightGBM and XGBoost. Experimental results show that A-SFS achieves the highest accuracy in most datasets. Furthermore, this design significantly reduces the reliance on labels, with only 1/10 labeled data needed to achieve the same performance as those state of art baselines. Results show that A-SFS is also most robust to the noisy and missing data.

Inspired by the human cognitive system, attention is a mechanism that imitates the human cognitive awareness about specific information, amplifying critical details to focus more on the essential aspects of data. Deep learning has employed attention to boost performance for many applications. Interestingly, the same attention design can suit processing different data modalities and can easily be incorporated into large networks. Furthermore, multiple complementary attention mechanisms can be incorporated in one network. Hence, attention techniques have become extremely attractive. However, the literature lacks a comprehensive survey specific to attention techniques to guide researchers in employing attention in their deep models. Note that, besides being demanding in terms of training data and computational resources, transformers only cover a single category in self-attention out of the many categories available. We fill this gap and provide an in-depth survey of 50 attention techniques categorizing them by their most prominent features. We initiate our discussion by introducing the fundamental concepts behind the success of attention mechanism. Next, we furnish some essentials such as the strengths and limitations of each attention category, describe their fundamental building blocks, basic formulations with primary usage, and applications specifically for computer vision. We also discuss the challenges and open questions related to attention mechanism in general. Finally, we recommend possible future research directions for deep attention.

Transformer is a type of deep neural network mainly based on self-attention mechanism which is originally applied in natural language processing field. Inspired by the strong representation ability of transformer, researchers propose to extend transformer for computer vision tasks. Transformer-based models show competitive and even better performance on various visual benchmarks compared to other network types such as convolutional networks and recurrent networks. In this paper we provide a literature review of these visual transformer models by categorizing them in different tasks and analyze the advantages and disadvantages of these methods. In particular, the main categories include the basic image classification, high-level vision, low-level vision and video processing. Self-attention in computer vision is also briefly revisited as self-attention is the base component in transformer. Efficient transformer methods are included for pushing transformer into real applications. Finally, we give a discussion about the further research directions for visual transformer.
