Leaf Level Ash Dieback Disease Detection and Online Severity Estimation With UAVs

Ash dieback, caused by the fungal pathogen Hymenoscyphus fraxineus, is devastating ash tree populations across U.K. and Europe, with projections indicating that up to 80% of ash trees may die as a result of the disease. The extensive loss of this keystone ...

Boosting Protein Graph Representations through Static-Dynamic Fusion

Pengkang Guo, Pierre Vandergheynst, Bruno Emanuel Ferreira De Sousa Correia, Daniel Probst

Machine learning for protein modeling faces significant challenges due to proteins' inherently dynamic nature, yet most graph-based machine learning methods rely solely on static structural information. Recently, the growing availability of molecular dynam ...

JPEG AI: The First International Standard for Image Coding Based on an End-to-End Learning-Based Approach

Touradj Ebrahimi

In 2019, the JPEG Standardization Committee initiated JPEG AI to define the first image coding specifications, taking advantage of an end-to-end learning-based coding approach. The JPEG AI specifications will be soon published as an international standard ...

Efficient Continual Finite-Sum Minimization

Ioannis Mavrothalassitis, Volkan Cevher, Leello Tadesse Dadi, Efstratios Panteleimon Skoulakis

Given a sequence of functions

f_1,\ldots,f_n

with

f_i:\mathcal{D}\mapsto \mathbb{R}

, finite-sum minimization seeks a point

{x}^\star \in \mathcal{D}

minimizing

\sum_{j=1}^nf_j(x)/n

. In this work, we propose a key twist into the finite-sum minimizat ...

Fundamental Limits in Statistical Learning Problems: Block Models and Neural Networks

Elisabetta Cornacchia

This thesis focuses on two selected learning problems: 1) statistical inference on graphs models, and, 2) gradient descent on neural networks, with the common objective of defining and analysing the measures that characterize the fundamental limits. In th ...

ALO-VC: Any-to-any Low-latency One-shot Voice Conversion

Bohan Wang

This paper presents ALO-VC, a non-parallel low-latency one-shot phonetic posteriorgrams (PPGs) based voice conversion method. ALO-VC enables any-to-any voice conversion using only one utterance from the target speaker, with only 47.5 ms future look-ahead. ...

DARE-GRAM : Unsupervised Domain Adaptation Regression by Aligning Inverse Gram Matrices

Olga Fink, Ismail Nejjar

Unsupervised Domain Adaptation Regression (DAR) aims to bridge the domain gap between a labeled source dataset and an unlabelled target dataset for regression problems. Recent works mostly focus on learning a deep feature encoder by minimizing the discrepa ...

On double-descent in uncertainty quantification in overparametrized models

Lenka Zdeborová, Florent Gérard Krzakala, Bruno Loureiro, Lucas Andry Clarte

Uncertainty quantification is a central challenge in reliable and trustworthy machine learning. Naive measures such as last-layer scores are well-known to yield overconfident estimates in the context of overparametrized neural networks. Several methods, ra ...

Self-supervised Dense Representation Learning for Live-Cell Microscopy with Time Arrow Prediction

Martin Weigert, Benjamin Tobias Gallusser

State-of-the-art object detection and segmentation methods for microscopy images rely on supervised machine learning, which requires laborious manual annotation of training data. Here we present a self-supervised method based on time arrow prediction pre-t ...

Structured and tiled-based pruning of Deep Learning models targeting FPGA implementations

Alexandre Schmid

Model compression techniques have lead to a reduction of size and number of computations of Deep Learning models. However, techniques such as pruning mostly lack of a real co-optimization with hardware platforms. For instance, implementing unstructured pru ...

What to Choose Next? A Paradigm for Testing Human Sequential Decision Making

Michael Herzog, Aaron Michael Clarke

Many of the decisions we make in our everyday lives are sequential and entail sparse rewards. While sequential decision-making has been extensively investigated in theory (e.g., by reinforcement learning models) there is no systematic experimental paradigm ...
