Fair division is a topic that has significant social and industrial value. In this work, we study allocations that simultaneously satisfy definitions of fairness and efficiency: EFx and PO. First, we prove that the problem of finding such allocations is NP-hard for two agents. Then, we propose a concept for an ILP-based solving algorithm, the running time of which depends on the number of EFx allocations. We generate input data and analyze algorithm&#39;s running time based on the results obtained.

With the introduction of large language models, chatbots are becoming more conversational to communicate effectively and capable of handling increasingly complex tasks. To make a chatbot more relatable and engaging, we propose a new language model idea that maps the human-like personality.
In this paper, we propose a systematic Personality-Enhanced Language Model (PELM) approach by using a joint learning mechanism of personality classification and language generation tasks. The proposed PELM leverages a dataset of defined personality typology, Myers-Briggs Type Indicator, and produces a Personality-Enhanced Language Model by using a joint learning and cross-teaching structure consisting of a classification and language modelling to incorporate personalities via both distinctive types and textual information. The results show that PELM can generate better personality-based outputs than baseline models.

In multi-goal reinforcement learning with a sparse binary reward, training agents is particularly challenging, due to a lack of successful experiences. To solve this problem, hindsight experience replay (HER) generates successful experiences even from unsuccessful ones. However, generating successful experiences from uniformly sampled ones is not an efficient process. In this paper, the impact of exploiting the property of achieved goals in generating successful experiences is investigated and a novel cluster-based sampling strategy is proposed. The proposed sampling strategy groups episodes with different achieved goals by using a cluster model and samples experiences in the manner of HER to create the training batch. The proposed method is validated by experiments with three robotic control tasks of the OpenAI Gym. The results of experiments demonstrate that the proposed method is substantially sample efficient and achieves better performance than baseline approaches.

Modern machine learning heavily relies on optimization, and as deep learning models grow more complex and data-hungry, the search for efficient learning becomes crucial. Learned optimizers disrupt traditional handcrafted methods such as SGD and Adam by learning the optimization strategy itself, potentially speeding up training. However, the learned optimizers' dynamics are still not well understood. To remedy this, our work explores their optimization trajectories from the perspective of network architecture symmetries and proposed parameter update distributions.

We present an imagification approach for multivariate time-series data tailored to constrained NN-based forecasting model training environments. Our imagification process consists of two key steps: Re-stacking and time embedding. In the Re-stacking stage, time-series data are arranged based on high correlation, forming the first image channel using a sliding window technique. The time embedding stage adds two additional image channels by incorporating real-time information. We evaluate our method by comparing it with three benchmark imagification techniques using a simple CNN-based model. Additionally, we conduct a comparison with LSTM, a conventional time-series forecasting model. Experimental results demonstrate that our proposed approach achieves three times faster model training termination while maintaining forecasting accuracy.

Anomaly detection is a critical task across various domains. Fundamentally, anomaly detection models offer methods to identify unusual patterns that do not align with expected behaviors. Notably, in the medical field, detecting anomalies in medical imagery or biometrics can facilitate early diagnosis of diseases. Consequently, we propose the Skip-GANomaly++ model, an enhanced and more efficient version of the conventional anomaly detection models. The proposed model's performance was evaluated through comparative experiments. Experimental results demonstrated superior performance across most classes compared to the previous models.

Solar power generation has recently been in the spotlight as global warming continues to worsen. However, two significant problems may hinder solar power generation, considering that solar panels are installed outside. The first is soiling, which accumulates on solar panels, and the second is a decrease in sunlight owing to bad weather.
In this paper, we will demonstrate that the solar power generation forecasting can increase when considering soiling and sunlight information. We first introduce a dataset containing images of clean and soiled solar panels, sky images, and weather information. For accurate solar power generation forecasting, we propose a new multimodal model that aggregates various features related to weather, soiling, and sunlight. The experimental results demonstrated the high accuracy of our proposed multimodal model.

The population characteristics of the datasets related to the same task may vary significantly and merging them may harm performance. In this paper, we propose a novel method of domain adaptation called "cross-adaptation". It allows for implicit adaptation to the target domain without the need for any labeled examples across this domain. We test our approach on 9 datasets for SARS-CoV-2 detection from complete blood count from different hospitals around the world. Results show that our solution is universal with respect to various classification algorithms and allows for up to a 10pp increase in F1 score on average.

Current practice of mobility scooter user authentication using physical keys and traditional password-based one-time security mechanisms cannot meet the needs of many mobility scooter riders, especially senior citizens having issues in recalling memory. Now seamless authentication approaches are needed to provide ongoing protection for mobility scooters against takeovers and unauthorized access. Existing continuous authentication techniques do not work well in a mobility scooter setting due to issues such as user comfort, deployment cost and enrollment time, among others. In that direction, our contributions in this research effort are two-fold: (i) we propose a novel system that incorporates advances in few-shot learning, hierarchical processing, and contextual embedding to establish continuous authentication for mobility scooter riders using only posture data. This security system, trained on data collected from real mobility scooter riders, demonstrates quick enrollment and easy deployability, while successfully serving as an unobtrusive first layer of security. (ii) we provide to the research community the largest publicly available repository of mobility scooter riders' body key-points data to enable further research in this direction.

Facial Expression Recognition (FER) is an extensively explored research problem in the domain of computer vision and artificial intelligence. FER, a supervised learning problem, requires significant training data representative of multiple socio-cultural demographic attributes. However, most of the FER dataset consists of images annotated by humans, which propagates individual and demographic biases. This work attempts to mitigate this bias using representation learning based on latent spaces, thereby increasing a deep learning model's fairness and overall accuracy.

Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disorder (COPD) is a prevalent respiratory disease that significantly impacts the quality of life of affected individuals. This paper presents COPD-FlowNet, a novel deep-learning framework that leverages a custom Generative Adversarial Network (GAN) to generate synthetic Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) velocity flow field images specific to the trachea of COPD patients. These synthetic images serve as a valuable resource for data augmentation and model training. Additionally, COPD-FlowNet incorporates a custom Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) architecture to predict the location of the obstruction site.
