Deep learning based data-driven approaches have been successfully applied in various image understanding applications ranging from object recognition, semantic segmentation to visual question answering. However, the lack of knowledge integration as well as higher-level reasoning capabilities with the methods still pose a hindrance. In this work, we present a brief survey of a few representative reasoning mechanisms, knowledge integration methods and their corresponding image understanding Figure 1: The diagram shows the information hierarchy for applications developed by various groups images and the knowledge associated with each level of information. of researchers, approaching the problem from a variety of angles. Furthermore, we discuss upon key efforts on integrating external knowledge with neural paper is to present a survey of recent works (including a few networks. Taking cues from these efforts, we of our works) in image understanding where knowledge and conclude by discussing potential pathways to improve reasoning plays an important role.

Automatic program correction is an active topic of research, which holds the potential of dramatically improving productivity of programmers during the software development process and correctness of software in general. Recent advances in machine learning, deep learning and NLP have rekindled the hope to eventually fully automate the process of repairing programs. A key challenges is ambiguity, as multiple codes -- or fixes -- can implement the same functionality. In addition, dataset by nature fail to capture the variance introduced by such ambiguities. Therefore, we propose a deep generative model to automatically correct programming errors by learning a distribution of potential fixes. Our model is formulated as a deep conditional variational autoencoder that samples diverse fixes for the given erroneous programs. In order to account for ambiguity and inherent lack of representative datasets, we propose a novel regularizer to encourage the model to generate diverse fixes. Our evaluations on common programming errors show for the first time the generation of diverse fixes and strong improvements over the state-of-the-art approaches by fixing up to $61\%$ of the mistakes.

This survey presents the most relevant neural network models of autism spectrum disorder and schizophrenia, from the first connectionist models to recent deep network architectures. We analyzed and compared the most representative symptoms with its neural model counterpart, detailing the alteration introduced in the network that generates each of the symptoms, and identifying their strengths and weaknesses. For completeness we additionally cross-compared Bayesian and free-energy approaches. Models of schizophrenia mainly focused on hallucinations and delusional thoughts using neural disconnections or inhibitory imbalance as the predominating alteration. Models of autism rather focused on perceptual difficulties, mainly excessive attention to environment details, implemented as excessive inhibitory connections or increased sensory precision. We found an excessive tight view of the psychopathologies around one specific and simplified effect, usually constrained to the technical idiosyncrasy of the network used. Recent theories and evidence on sensorimotor integration and body perception combined with modern neural network architectures offer a broader and novel spectrum to approach these psychopathologies, outlining the future research on neural networks computational psychiatry, a powerful asset for understanding the inner processes of the human brain.

One of the most exciting technology breakthroughs in the last few years has been the rise of deep learning. State-of-the-art deep learning models are being widely deployed in academia and industry, across a variety of areas, from image analysis to natural language processing. These models have grown from fledgling research subjects to mature techniques in real-world use. The increasing scale of data, computational power and the associated algorithmic innovations are the main drivers for the progress we see in this field. These developments also have a huge potential for the automotive industry and therefore the interest in deep learning-based technology is growing. A lot of the product innovations, such as self-driving cars, parking and lane-change assist or safety functions, such as autonomous emergency braking, are powered by deep learning algorithms. Deep learning is poised to offer gains in performance and functionality for most ADAS (Advanced Driver Assistance System) solutions. Virtual sensing for vehicle dynamics application, vehicle inspection/heath monitoring, automated driving and data-driven product development are key areas that are expected to get the most attention. This article provides an overview of the recent advances and some associated challenges in deep learning techniques in the context of automotive applications.

The work presented in this master thesis consists of extracting a set of events from texts written in natural language. For this purpose, we have based ourselves on the basic notions of the information extraction as well as the open information extraction. First, we applied an open information extraction(OIE) system for the relationship extraction, to highlight the importance of OIEs in event extraction, and we used the ontology to the event modeling. We tested the results of our approach with test metrics. As a result, the two-level event extraction approach has shown good performance results but requires a lot of expert intervention in the construction of classifiers and this will take time. In this context we have proposed an approach that reduces the expert intervention in the relation extraction, the recognition of entities and the reasoning which are automatic and based on techniques of adaptation and correspondence. Finally, to prove the relevance of the extracted results, we conducted a set of experiments using different test metrics as well as a comparative study.

Why are deep neural networks hard to train? Appendix: Is there a simple algorithm for intelligence? If you benefit from the book, please make a small donation. I suggest $5, but you can choose the amount. Thanks to all the supporters who made the book possible, with especial thanks to Pavel Dudrenov. In the last chapter we learned that deep neural networks are often much harder to train than shallow neural networks. That's unfortunate, since we have good reason to believe that if we could train deep nets they'd be much more powerful than shallow nets. But while the news from the last chapter is discouraging, we won't let it stop us. In this chapter, we'll develop techniques which can be used to train deep networks, and apply them in practice. We'll also look at the broader picture, briefly reviewing recent progress on using deep nets for image recognition, speech recognition, and other applications. And we'll take a brief, speculative look at what the future may hold for neural nets, ...

From a trader's point of view, there is one commodity that is worth infinitesimally more than any other. And it's not cutting-edge technology, advanced technical analysis, or profound macroeconomic insight – although these are undoubtedly hugely valuable – it's information. Not just any information – after all, the world is filled with more information than even the most powerful computers could hope to store, and the most intelligent brains could hope to begin to comprehend. No, there's one type of information that has the potential to give traders a bigger edge than any other, and that's the latest information. Information that the rest of the market has yet to factor into their equations.

As global taste for rapid delivery increases, so too does the pressure on those facilitating logistics internationally. Regardless of the scale of operation, says Dean Porter at Zebra Technologies, inventory management is one of the most frequently reported pain points in the warehouse and logistics industries. What was once manageable – or at least tolerable – and done manually, now requires a distinct minimum level of technology to run. Without intelligent databases, around the clock connectivity and smart, ruggedised devices, stock would get lost, workers confused, and management baffled without a live account of operations. The solution is to invest time into looking at what the next wave of technology will bring and how it can plug into existing systems – just don't get put off by jargon or futuristic titles.
