Deep neural networks (DNNs) detect patterns in data and have shown versatility and strong performance in many computer vision applications. However, DNNs alone are susceptible to obvious mistakes that violate simple, common sense concepts and are limited in their ability to use explicit knowledge to guide their search and decision making. While overall DNN performance metrics may be good, these obvious errors, coupled with a lack of explainability, have prevented widespread adoption for crucial tasks such as medical image analysis. The purpose of this paper is to introduce SimpleMind, an open-source software framework for Cognitive AI focused on medical image understanding. It allows creation of a knowledge base that describes expected characteristics and relationships between image objects in an intuitive human-readable form. The SimpleMind framework brings thinking to DNNs by: (1) providing methods for reasoning with the knowledge base about image content, such as spatial inferencing and conditional reasoning to check DNN outputs; (2) applying process knowledge, in the form of general-purpose software agents, that are chained together to accomplish image preprocessing, DNN prediction, and result post-processing, and (3) performing automatic co-optimization of all knowledge base parameters to adapt agents to specific problems. SimpleMind enables reasoning on multiple detected objects to ensure consistency, providing cross checking between DNN outputs. This machine reasoning improves the reliability and trustworthiness of DNNs through an interpretable model and explainable decisions. Example applications are provided that demonstrate how SimpleMind supports and improves deep neural networks by embedding them within a Cognitive AI framework.

当从人类行为中推断出奖励功能（无论是演示，比较，物理校正或电子停靠点）时，它已证明对人类进行建模作为做出嘈杂的理性选择，并具有“合理性系数”，以捕获多少噪声或熵我们希望看到人类的行为。无论人类反馈的类型或质量如何，许多现有作品都选择修复此系数。但是，在某些情况下，进行演示可能要比回答比较查询要困难得多。在这种情况下，我们应该期望在示范中看到比比较中更多的噪音或次级临时性，并且应该相应地解释反馈。在这项工作中，我们提倡，将每种反馈类型的实际数据中的理性系数扎根，而不是假设默认值，对奖励学习具有重大的积极影响。我们在模拟反馈以及用户研究的实验中测试了这一点。我们发现，从单一反馈类型中学习时，高估人类理性可能会对奖励准确性和遗憾产生可怕的影响。此外，我们发现合理性层面会影响每种反馈类型的信息性：令人惊讶的是，示威并不总是最有用的信息 - 当人类的行为非常卑鄙时，即使在合理性水平相同的情况下，比较实际上就变得更加有用。 。此外，当机器人确定要要求的反馈类型时，它可以通过准确建模每种类型的理性水平来获得很大的优势。最终，我们的结果强调了关注假定理性级别的重要性，不仅是在从单个反馈类型中学习时，尤其是当代理商从多种反馈类型中学习时，尤其是在学习时。

由于存在浓烟或阴霾，从室外视觉环境收集的图像通常会降解。在这些退化的视觉环境（DVE）中，在场景理解中进行研究的关键挑战是缺乏代表性的基准数据集。这些数据集需要评估降级设置中的最新对象识别和其他计算机视觉算法。在本文中，我们通过引入带有朦胧和无雾图像的第一个配对的真实图像基准数据集以及原位的雾化密度测量来解决其中的一些限制。该数据集是在受控的环境中生产的，其专业烟雾产生机器覆盖了整个场景，并由从无人机（UAV）（UAV）和无人接地车（UGV）的角度捕获的图像组成。我们还评估了一组代表性的最先进的飞行方法以及数据集中的对象探测器。本文介绍的完整数据集，包括地面真相对象分类框和雾密度测量值，为社区提供了以下网址评估其算法的信息：https：//a2i2-archangel.vision。该数据集的一个子集已用于在CVPR UG2 2022挑战的雾痕中进行对象检测。

语言模型既展示了定量的改进，又展示了新的定性功能，随着规模的增加。尽管它们具有潜在的变革性影响，但这些新能力的特征却很差。为了为未来的研究提供信息，为破坏性的新模型能力做准备，并改善社会有害的效果，至关重要的是，我们必须了解目前和近乎未来的能力和语言模型的局限性。为了应对这一挑战，我们介绍了超越模仿游戏基准（Big Bench）。 Big Bench目前由204个任务组成，由132家机构的442位作者贡献。任务主题是多样的，从语言学，儿童发展，数学，常识性推理，生物学，物理学，社会偏见，软件开发等等。 Big-Bench专注于被认为超出当前语言模型的功能的任务。我们评估了OpenAI的GPT型号，Google内部密集变压器体系结构和大型基础上的开关稀疏变压器的行为，跨越了数百万到数十亿个参数。此外，一个人类专家评估者团队执行了所有任务，以提供强大的基准。研究结果包括：模型性能和校准都随规模改善，但绝对的术语（以及与评估者的性能相比）；在模型类中的性能非常相似，尽管带有稀疏性。逐渐和预测的任务通常涉及大量知识或记忆成分，而在临界规模上表现出“突破性”行为的任务通常涉及多个步骤或组成部分或脆性指标；社交偏见通常会随着含糊不清的环境而随着规模而增加，但这可以通过提示来改善。

在本文中，我们探讨了构建统一基础模型的可能性，该模型可以适应愿景和仅文本任务。从BERT和VIT开始，我们设计一个由模态特定标记，共享变压器编码器和任务特定的输出头组成的统一变压器。为了有效地预先列车在未配对的图像和文本上联合培训拟议的模型，我们提出了两种新颖的技术：（i）我们使用单独培训的BERT和VIT模型作为老师，并应用知识蒸馏，为关节提供额外的准确的监督信号训练; （ii）我们提出了一种新颖的渐变掩蔽策略，以平衡图像和文本预培训损失的参数更新。我们通过微调它分别在图像分类任务和自然语言理解任务上进行微调，评估联合预训练的变压器。实验表明，由此产生的统一基础变压器令人惊讶地在视觉和仅文本任务中令人惊讶地令人惊讶，并且所提出的知识蒸馏和梯度掩蔽策略可以有效地提升分别训练模型水平的性能。

这项工作提出了一个名为TEG的自我监督的学习框架，探讨学习视频表示中的时间粒度。在TEG中，我们从视频中抽出一个长剪辑，以及在长夹内部的短夹。然后我们提取密集的时间嵌入品。培训目标由两部分组成：一个细粒度的时间学习目的，以最大化短夹和长剪辑中的相应时间嵌入之间的相似性，以及持续的时间学习目标，以将两个剪辑的全局嵌入在一起。我们的研究揭示了时间粒度与三个主要发现的影响。 1）不同的视频任务可能需要不同时间粒度的特征。 2）有趣的是，广泛认为需要时间感知的一些任务实际上可以通过时间持久的功能来解决。 3）TEG的灵活性对8个视频基准测试产生最先进的结果，在大多数情况下优于监督预训练。

It has become common to publish large (billion parameter) language models that have been trained on private datasets. This paper demonstrates that in such settings, an adversary can perform a training data extraction attack to recover individual training examples by querying the language model. We demonstrate our attack on GPT-2, a language model trained on scrapes of the public Internet, and are able to extract hundreds of verbatim text sequences from the model's training data. These extracted examples include (public) personally identifiable information (names, phone numbers, and email addresses), IRC conversations, code, and 128-bit UUIDs. Our attack is possible even though each of the above sequences are included in just one document in the training data.We comprehensively evaluate our extraction attack to understand the factors that contribute to its success. Worryingly, we find that larger models are more vulnerable than smaller models. We conclude by drawing lessons and discussing possible safeguards for training large language models.

Human vision is able to immediately recognize novel visual categories after seeing just one or a few training examples. We describe how to add a similar capability to ConvNet classifiers by directly setting the final layer weights from novel training examples during low-shot learning. We call this process weight imprinting as it directly sets weights for a new category based on an appropriately scaled copy of the embedding layer activations for that training example. The imprinting process provides a valuable complement to training with stochastic gradient descent, as it provides immediate good classification performance and an initialization for any further fine-tuning in the future. We show how this imprinting process is related to proxy-based embeddings. However, it differs in that only a single imprinted weight vector is learned for each novel category, rather than relying on a nearest-neighbor distance to training instances as typically used with embedding methods. Our experiments show that using averaging of imprinted weights provides better generalization than using nearest-neighbor instance embeddings.

Extracting complex structures from grid-based data is a common key step in automated medical image analysis. The conventional solution to recovering tree-structured geometries typically involves computing the minimal cost path through intermediate representations derived from segmentation masks. However, this methodology has significant limitations in the context of projective imaging of tree-structured 3D anatomical data such as coronary arteries, since there are often overlapping branches in the 2D projection. In this work, we propose a novel approach to predicting tree connectivity structure which reformulates the task as an optimization problem over individual steps of a recursive process. We design and train a two-stage model which leverages the UNet and Transformer architectures and introduces an image-based prompting technique. Our proposed method achieves compelling results on a pair of synthetic datasets, and outperforms a shortest-path baseline.

There are multiple scales of abstraction from which we can describe the same image, depending on whether we are focusing on fine-grained details or a more global attribute of the image. In brain mapping, learning to automatically parse images to build representations of both small-scale features (e.g., the presence of cells or blood vessels) and global properties of an image (e.g., which brain region the image comes from) is a crucial and open challenge. However, most existing datasets and benchmarks for neuroanatomy consider only a single downstream task at a time. To bridge this gap, we introduce a new dataset, annotations, and multiple downstream tasks that provide diverse ways to readout information about brain structure and architecture from the same image. Our multi-task neuroimaging benchmark (MTNeuro) is built on volumetric, micrometer-resolution X-ray microtomography images spanning a large thalamocortical section of mouse brain, encompassing multiple cortical and subcortical regions. We generated a number of different prediction challenges and evaluated several supervised and self-supervised models for brain-region prediction and pixel-level semantic segmentation of microstructures. Our experiments not only highlight the rich heterogeneity of this dataset, but also provide insights into how self-supervised approaches can be used to learn representations that capture multiple attributes of a single image and perform well on a variety of downstream tasks.
