People have more trust in robots than their managers, according to the second annual AI at Work study conducted by Oracle and Future Workplace. The study of 8 370 employees, managers and HR leaders across 10 countries, found that AI has changed the relationship between people and technology at work and is reshaping the role HR teams and managers need to play in attracting, retaining and developing talent. Contrary to common fears around how AI will impact jobs, employees, managers and HR leaders across the globe are reporting increased adoption of AI at work and many are welcoming AI with love and optimism. AI is becoming more prominent with 50% of workers currently using some form of AI at work compared to only 32% last year. Workers in China (77%) and India (78%) have adopted AI over two-times more than those in France (32%) and Japan (29%).

JOURNAL OF L A T EX CLASS FILES, VOL., NO., 1 Single V ersus Union: Nonparallel Support V ector Machine Frameworks Chun-Na Li, Y uan-Hai Shao, Huajun Wang, Y u-Ting Zhao, Ling-Wei Huang, Naihua Xiu and Nai-Y ang Deng Abstract --Considering the classification problem, we summarize the nonparallel support vector machines with the nonparallel hyperplanes to two types of frameworks. It solves a series of small optimization problems to obtain a series of hyperplanes, but is hard to measure the loss of each sample. The other type constructs all the hyperplanes simultaneously, and it solves one big optimization problem with the ascertained loss of each sample. We give the characteristics of each framework and compare them carefully. In addition, based on the second framework, we construct a max-min distance-based nonparallel support vector machine for multiclass classification problem, called NSVM. Experimental results on benchmark data sets and human face databases show the advantages of our NSVM. I NTRODUCTION F OR binary classification problem, the generalized eigenvalue proximal support vector machine (GEPSVM) was proposed by Mangasarian and Wild [1] in 2006, which is the first nonparallel support vector machine. It aims at generating two nonparallel hyperplanes such that each hyperplane is closer to its class and as far as possible from the other class. GEPSVM is effective, particularly when dealing with the "Xor"-type data [1]. This leads to extensive studies on nonparallel support vector machines (NSVMs) [2]-[5].

Since manually labeling training data is slow and expensive, recent industrial and scientific research efforts have turned to weaker or noisier forms of supervision sources. However, existing weak supervision approaches fail to model multi-resolution sources for sequential data, like video, that can assign labels to individual elements or collections of elements in a sequence. A key challenge in weak supervision is estimating the unknown accuracies and correlations of these sources without using labeled data. Multi-resolution sources exacerbate this challenge due to complex correlations and sample complexity that scales in the length of the sequence. We propose Dugong, the first framework to model multi-resolution weak supervision sources with complex correlations to assign probabilistic labels to training data. Theoretically, we prove that Dugong, under mild conditions, can uniquely recover the unobserved accuracy and correlation parameters and use parameter sharing to improve sample complexity. Our method assigns clinician-validated labels to population-scale biomedical video repositories, helping outperform traditional supervision by 36.8 F1 points and addressing a key use case where machine learning has been severely limited by the lack of expert labeled data. On average, Dugong improves over traditional supervision by 16.0 F1 points and existing weak supervision approaches by 24.2 F1 points across several video and sensor classification tasks.

A graph homomorphism is a map between two graphs that preserves adjacency relations. We consider the problem of sampling a random graph homomorphism from a graph $F$ into a large network $\mathcal{G}$. When $\mathcal{G}$ is the complete graph with $q$ nodes, this becomes the well-known problem of sampling uniform $q$-colorings of $F$. We propose two complementary MCMC algorithms for sampling a random graph homomorphisms and establish bounds on their mixing times and concentration of their time averages. Based on our sampling algorithms, we propose a novel framework for network data analysis that circumvents some of the drawbacks in methods based on independent and neigborhood sampling. Various time averages of the MCMC trajectory give us real-, function-, and network-valued computable observables, including well-known ones such as homomorphism density and average clustering coefficient. One of the main observable we propose is called the conditional homomorphism density profile, which reveals hierarchical structure of the network. Furthermore, we show that these network observables are stable with respect to a suitably renormalized cut distance between networks. We also provide various examples and simulations demonstrating our framework through synthetic and real-world networks. For instance, we apply our framework to analyze Word Adjacency Networks of a 45 novels data set and propose an authorship attribution scheme using motif sampling and conditional homomorphism density profiles.

A face spoofing attack occurs when an intruder attempts to impersonate someone who carries a gainful authentication clearance. It is a trending topic due to the increasing demand for biometric authentication on mobile devices, high-security areas, among others. This work introduces a new database named Sense Wax Attack dataset (SWAX), comprised of real human and wax figure images and videos that endorse the problem of face spoofing detection. The dataset consists of more than 1800 face images and 110 videos of 55 people/waxworks, arranged in training, validation and test sets with a large range in expression, illumination and pose variations. Experiments performed with baseline methods show that despite the progress in recent years, advanced spoofing methods are still vulnerable to high-quality violation attempts.

Armed violence is on the rise and we don't know how to stop it1. Since 2011, conflicts worldwide have killed up to 100,000 people a year, three-quarters of whom were in Afghanistan, Iraq and Syria. The rate of major wars has decreased over the past few decades. But the number of civil conflicts has doubled since the 1960s, and terrorist attacks have become more frequent in the past ten years. The nature of conflict is changing.

About a year ago, top deepfake artist Hao Li came to a disturbing realization: Deepfakes, i.e. the technique of human-image synthesis based on artificial intelligence (AI) to create fake content, is rapidly evolving. In fact, Li believes that in as soon as six months, deepfake videos will be completely undetectable. And that's spurring security and privacy concerns as the AI behind the technology becomes commercialized – and gets in the hands of malicious actors. Li, for his part, has seen the positives of the technology as a pioneering computer graphics and vision researcher, particularly for entertainment. He has worked his magic on various high-profile deepfake applications – from leading the charge in putting Paul Walker into Furious 7 after the actor died before the film finished production, to creating the facial-animation technology that Apple now uses in its Animoji feature in the iPhone X. But now, "I believe it will soon be a point where it isn't possible to detect if videos are fake or not," Li told Threatpost.

Word embedding -- the mapping of words into numerical vector spaces -- has proved to be an incredibly important method for natural language processing (NLP) tasks in recent years, enabling various machine learning models that rely on vector representation as input to enjoy richer representations of text input. These representations preserve more semantic and syntactic information on words, leading to improved performance in almost every imaginable NLP task. Both the novel idea itself and its tremendous impact have led researchers to consider the problem of how to provide this boon of richer vector representations to larger units of texts -- from sentences to books. This effort has resulted in a slew of new methods to produce these mappings, with various innovative solutions to the problem and some notable breakthroughs. This post is meant to present the different ways practitioners have come up with to produce document embeddings. Note: I use the word document here to refer to any sequence of words, ranging from sentences and paragraphs through social media posts all way up to articles, books and more complexly structured text documents (e.g. In this post, I will touch upon not only approaches that are direct extensions of word embedding techniques (e.g., in the way doc2vec extends word2vec), but also other notable techniques that produce -- sometimes among other outputs -- a mapping of documents to vectors in ℝⁿ. I will also try to provide links and references to both the original papers and code implementations of the reviewed methods whenever possible. Note: This topic is somewhat related, but not equivalent, to the problem of learning structured text representations (e.g., Liu & Lapata, 2018). The ability to map documents to informative vector representations has a wide range of applications.
