Modern gadgets in the style of Gaudí – in pictures

#artificialintelligence

"We live in an age of Apple and Tesla," says Marcus Byrne of creative agency Thinkerbell in Australia. "Minimal design has taken charge and logos are stripped back to live on mobile devices." He's challenged that ideal by asking: "What would Gaudí do?" – using the Midjourney AI software and Photoshop to create a set of modern gadgets in the Spanish architect's colourful, curvilinear style. "It turns minimal appliances into art-nouveau styled sculptures," he says. Byrne is uncomfortable calling the Gaudí gadgets his work, though.

Football 2023: Why the A-League could introduce facial recognition at a stadium near you

#artificialintelligence

There are also unresolved questions about how spectator bans can be enforced at lower-tier facilities for women's, youth, state league or other grassroots matches, where the security presence is greatly reduced in comparison to the stadiums where the full-time professionals play. FA chief executive James Johnson admitted on Tuesday that stadium bans were "complex" but not impossible to implement, and required close collaboration and information sharing between sporting bodies, security and police to allow those manning stadium entry points to identify banned supporters. Victoria Police say the enforcement of stadium bans is a matter for host clubs and venues.Credit:Getty Images According to industry sources, however, the system is imperfect and, in many ways, archaic, heavily reliant on the memories of security staff and their ability to quickly match patrons with photos, names or other data related to people on banned lists. Inevitably, some slip through the net, and often they are the ones who can cause trouble at a sporting event. One obvious but highly controversial and almost dystopian solution appears to be gaining traction in Australia and throughout the world: facial recognition technology, which was rolled out in cameras throughout the SCG precinct in 2018 and has been in place at Sydney's major stadia ever since.


Poisoning Attacks and Defenses in Federated Learning: A Survey

arXiv.org Artificial Intelligence

Abstract--Federated learning (FL) enables the training of models among distributed clients without compromising the privacy of training datasets, while the invisibility of clients' datasets and the training process poses a variety of security threats. This survey provides the taxonomy of poisoning attacks and experimental evaluation to discuss the need for robust FL. The FL has emerged as a promising solution to a authors also conducted an experimental evaluation in order number of applications to solve data silos while protecting to draw a conclusion on how to select the suitable method the privacy of data. Since its emergence, FL has been in each category of adversarial attacks. Furthermore, a brief employed in a variety of applications including but not limited overview of threats to FL is discussed in [2] and focuses on to healthcare, crowdsourcing systems, natural language poisoning and inference attacks in order to comprehend the processing (NLP), and the Internet of Things (IoT).


Improving Generalization of Adapter-Based Cross-lingual Transfer with Scheduled Unfreezing

arXiv.org Artificial Intelligence

Standard fine-tuning of language models typically performs well on in-distribution data, but suffers with generalization to distribution shifts. In this work, we aim to improve generalization of adapter-based cross-lingual task transfer where such cross-language distribution shifts are imminent. We investigate scheduled unfreezing algorithms -- originally proposed to mitigate catastrophic forgetting in transfer learning -- for fine-tuning task adapters in cross-lingual transfer. Our experiments show that scheduled unfreezing methods close the gap to full fine-tuning and achieve state-of-the-art transfer performance, suggesting that these methods can go beyond just mitigating catastrophic forgetting. Next, aiming to delve deeper into those empirical findings, we investigate the learning dynamics of scheduled unfreezing using Fisher Information. Our in-depth experiments reveal that scheduled unfreezing induces different learning dynamics compared to standard fine-tuning, and provide evidence that the dynamics of Fisher Information during training correlate with cross-lingual generalization performance. We additionally propose a general scheduled unfreezing algorithm that achieves an average of 2 points improvement over four datasets compared to standard fine-tuning and provides strong empirical evidence for a theory-based justification of the heuristic unfreezing schedule (i.e., the heuristic schedule is implicitly maximizing Fisher Information). Our code will be publicly available.


Multilingual Detection of Check-Worthy Claims using World Languages and Adapter Fusion

arXiv.org Artificial Intelligence

Check-worthiness detection is the task of identifying claims, worthy to be investigated by fact-checkers. Resource scarcity for non-world languages and model learning costs remain major challenges for the creation of models supporting multilingual check-worthiness detection. This paper proposes cross-training adapters on a subset of world languages, combined by adapter fusion, to detect claims emerging globally in multiple languages. (1) With a vast number of annotators available for world languages and the storage-efficient adapter models, this approach is more cost efficient. Models can be updated more frequently and thus stay up-to-date. (2) Adapter fusion provides insights and allows for interpretation regarding the influence of each adapter model on a particular language. The proposed solution often outperformed the top multilingual approaches in our benchmark tasks.


Toward General Design Principles for Generative AI Applications

arXiv.org Artificial Intelligence

Generative AI technologies are growing in power, utility, and use. As generative technologies are being incorporated into mainstream applications, there is a need for guidance on how to design those applications to foster productive and safe use. Based on recent research on human-AI co-creation within the HCI and AI communities, we present a set of seven principles for the design of generative AI applications. These principles are grounded in an environment of generative variability. Six principles are focused on designing for characteristics of generative AI: multiple outcomes & imperfection; exploration & control; and mental models & explanations. In addition, we urge designers to design against potential harms that may be caused by a generative model's hazardous output, misuse, or potential for human displacement. We anticipate these principles to usefully inform design decisions made in the creation of novel human-AI applications, and we invite the community to apply, revise, and extend these principles to their own work.


A Case Study in Engineering a Conversational Programming Assistant's Persona

arXiv.org Artificial Intelligence

One particularly interesting aspect of these models is that their behavior can be configured by a prompt, the initial text provided to the model, which establishes a pattern that the model attempts to continue. General purpose Large Language models can be fine-tuned on specific corpora to provide expertise in a particular domain. One such model is the OpenAI Codex model [3], a 12 billion parameter version of GPT-3 [2, 11], fine-tuned on code samples from 54 million public software repositories on GitHub. This model powers Github Co-Pilot [5], which primarily provides code-completion services within an Integrated Development Environment. We wondered whether such a model could power a conversational programming assistant and perhaps approach the vision laid out by Rich and Waters for their Programmer's Apprentice [15]. We developed the Programmer's Assistant prototype to explore this possibility, and to test whether potential users would find this sort of system useful and desirable [16]. In this paper we will review the steps taken to engineer the prompt for the Programmer's Assistant that used the Codex model to power an interactive conversational assistant, and how we evolved the prompt to establish the desired persona and behavior.


A Solver-Free Framework for Scalable Learning in Neural ILP Architectures

arXiv.org Artificial Intelligence

There is a recent focus on designing architectures that have an Integer Linear Programming (ILP) layer within a neural model (referred to as Neural ILP in this paper). Neural ILP architectures are suitable for pure reasoning tasks that require data-driven constraint learning or for tasks requiring both perception (neural) and reasoning (ILP). A recent SOTA approach for end-to-end training of Neural ILP explicitly defines gradients through the ILP black box (Paulus et al. 2021) - this trains extremely slowly, owing to a call to the underlying ILP solver for every training data point in a minibatch. In response, we present an alternative training strategy that is solver-free, i.e., does not call the ILP solver at all at training time. Neural ILP has a set of trainable hyperplanes (for cost and constraints in ILP), together representing a polyhedron. Our key idea is that the training loss should impose that the final polyhedron separates the positives (all constraints satisfied) from the negatives (at least one violated constraint or a suboptimal cost value), via a soft-margin formulation. While positive example(s) are provided as part of the training data, we devise novel techniques for generating negative samples. Our solution is flexible enough to handle equality as well as inequality constraints. Experiments on several problems, both perceptual as well as symbolic, which require learning the constraints of an ILP, show that our approach has superior performance and scales much better compared to purely neural baselines and other state-of-the-art models that require solver-based training. In particular, we are able to obtain excellent performance in 9 x 9 symbolic and visual sudoku, to which the other Neural ILP solver is not able to scale.
