Abstract--In this letter, an age of information (AoI)-aware transmission power and resource block (RB) allocation tech nique for vehicular communication networks is proposed. Due to the highly dynamic nature of vehicular networks, gaining a prior knowledge about the network dynamics, i.e., wireless channels and interference, in order to allocate resources, is challenging. Therefore, to effectively allocate power and RBs, the proposed approach allows the network to actively learn its dynamics by balancing a tradeoff between minimizing the probability that the vehicles' AoI exceeds a predefined thre shold and maximizing the knowledge about the network dynamics. In this regard, using a Gaussian process regression (GPR) approach, an online decentralized strategy is proposed to a ctively learn the network dynamics, estimate the vehicles' future A oI, and proactively allocate resources. Simulation results sh ow a significant improvement in terms of AoI violation probabili ty, compared to several baselines, with a reduction of at least 50%.

We describe the design, the evaluation setup, and the results of the 2016 WMT shared task on cross-lingual pronoun prediction. This is a classification task in which participants are asked to provide predictions on what pronoun class label should replace a placeholder value in the target-language text, provided in lemma-tised and PoS-tagged form. We provided four subtasks, for the English-French and English-German language pairs, in both directions. Eleven teams participated in the shared task; nine for the English-French subtask, five for French-English, nine for English-German, and six for German-English. Most of the submissions outperformed two strong language-model- based baseline systems, with systems using deep recurrent neural networks outperforming those using other architectures for most language pairs.

In this study, we present Flatsomatic - a Variational Auto Encoder (VAE) optimized to compress somatic mutations that allow for unbiased data compression whilst maintaining the signal. We compared two different neural network architectures for the VAE: Multilayer Perceptron (MLP) and bidirectional LSTM. The somatic profiles we used to train our models consisted of 8,062 Pan-Cancer patients from The Cancer Genome Atlas and 989 cell lines from the COSMIC cell line project. The profiles for each patient were represented by the genomic loci where somatic mutations occurred and, to reduce sparsity, the locations with a frequency <5 were removed. We enhanced the VAE performance by changing its evidence lower bound, and devised an F1-score based loss showing that it helps the VAE learn better than with binary cross-entropy. We also employed beta-VAE to weight the variational regularisation term in the loss function and showed the best performance through a preliminary function to increase the weight of the regularisation term with each epoch. We assessed the reconstruction ability of the VAE using the micro F1-score metric and showed that our best performing model was a 2-layer deep MLP VAE. Our analysis also showed that the size of the latent space did not have a significant effect on the VAE learning ability. We compared the Flatsomatic embeddings created to a lower dimension version of the data from principal component analysis, showing superior performance of Flatsomatic, and performed K-means clustering on both datasets to draw comparisons to known cancer types of each profile. Finally, we present results that confirm that the Flatsomatic representations of 64 dimensions maintain the same predictive power as the original 8,298 dimensions vector, through prediction of drug response.

Graph convolutional networks (GCNs) have shown the powerful ability in text structure representation and effectively facilitate the task of text classification. However, challenges still exist in adapting GCN on learning discriminative features from texts due to the main issue of graph variants incurred by the textual complexity and diversity. In this paper, we propose a dual-attention GCN to model the structural information of various texts as well as tackle the graph-invariant problem through embedding two types of attention mechanisms, i.e. the connection-attention and hop-attention, into the classic GCN. To encode various connection patterns between neighbour words, connection-attention adaptively imposes different weights specified to neighbourhoods of each word, which captures the short-term dependencies. On the other hand, the hop-attention applies scaled coefficients to different scopes during the graph diffusion process to make the model learn more about the distribution of context, which captures long-term semantics in an adaptive way. Extensive experiments are conducted on five widely used datasets to evaluate our dual-attention GCN, and the achieved state-of-the-art performance verifies the effectiveness of dual-attention mechanisms.

In this paper, we propose a new product knowledge graph (PKG) embedding approach for learning the intrinsic product relations as product knowledge for e-commerce. We define the key entities and summarize the pivotal product relations that are critical for general e-commerce applications including marketing, advertisement, search ranking and recommendation. We first provide a comprehensive comparison between PKG and ordinary knowledge graph (KG) and then illustrate why KG embedding methods are not suitable for PKG learning. We construct a self-attention-enhanced distributed representation learning model for learning PKG embeddings from raw customer activity data in an end-to-end fashion. We design an effective multi-task learning schema to fully leverage the multi-modal e-commerce data. The Poincare embedding is also employed to handle complex entity structures. We use a real-world dataset from grocery.walmart.com to evaluate the performances on knowledge completion, search ranking and recommendation. The proposed approach compares favourably to baselines in knowledge completion and downstream tasks.

This article proposes methodology that identifies characteristics associated with a home insurance policy that can be used to infer the link between marketing intervention and policy renewal rate. Using the resulting statistical model, the goal is to predict which customers the company should focus on, in order to deploy future retention campaigns. A subscription-based company loses its customers when they stop doing business with their service. Also known as customer attrition, customer churn can be a drag on the business growth. It is less expensive to retain existing customers than to acquire new customers, so businesses put effort into marketing strategies to reduce customer attrition. Customer loyalty, on the other hand, is usually more profitable because the company have already earned the trust and loyalty of existing customers. Businesses mostly have a defined strategy for fighting customer churn over a period of time. Organizations are able to determine their success rate in customer loyalty and identify improvement strategies using available data and learning about churn.

Many real-world functions are defined over both categorical and category-specific continuous variables and thus cannot be optimized by traditional Bayesian optimization (BO) methods. To optimize such functions, we propose a new method that formulates the problem as a multi-armed bandit problem, wherein each category corresponds to an arm with its reward distribution centered around the optimum of the objective function in continuous variables. Our goal is to identify the best arm and the maximizer of the corresponding continuous function simultaneously. Our algorithm uses a Thompson sampling scheme that helps connecting both multi-arm bandit and BO in a unified framework. We extend our method to batch BO to allow parallel optimization when multiple resources are available. We theoretically analyze our method for convergence and prove sub-linear regret bounds. We perform a variety of experiments: optimization of several benchmark functions, hyper-parameter tuning of a neural network, and automatic selection of the best machine learning model along with its optimal hyper-parameters (a.k.a automated machine learning). Comparisons with other methods demonstrate the effectiveness of our proposed method.

Hydrological storm events are a primary driver for transporting water quality constituents such as turbidity, suspended sediments and nutrients. Analyzing the concentration (C) of these water quality constituents in response to increased streamflow discharge (Q), particularly when monitored at high temporal resolution during a hydrological event, helps to characterize the dynamics and flux of such constituents. A conventional approach to storm event analysis is to reduce the C-Q time series to two-dimensional (2-D) hysteresis loops and analyze these 2-D patterns. While effective and informative to some extent, this hysteresis loop approach has limitations because projecting the C-Q time series onto a 2-D plane obscures detail (e.g., temporal variation) associated with the C-Q relationships. In this paper, we address this issue using a multivariate time series clustering approach. Clustering is applied to sequences of river discharge and suspended sediment data (acquired through turbidity-based monitoring) from six watersheds located in the Lake Champlain Basin in the northeastern United States. While clusters of the hydrological storm events using the multivariate time series approach were found to be correlated to 2-D hysteresis loop classifications and watershed locations, the clusters differed from the 2-D hysteresis classifications. Additionally, using available meteorological data associated with storm events, we examine the characteristics of computational clusters of storm events in the study watersheds and identify the features driving the clustering approach.

This letter introduces an abstract learning problem called the ``set embedding'': The objective is to map sets into probability distributions so as to lose less information. We relate set union and intersection operations with corresponding interpolations of probability distributions. We also demonstrate a preliminary solution with experimental results on toy set embedding examples.
