RelativeUncertaintyLearningforFacialExpression RecognitionSupplementaryMaterial AVisualizationresultsonMNISTandCIFAR
Weprovide visualization results onMNIST and CIFAR toshowour uncertainty learning method also works well on datasets besides facial expression recognition (FER) tasks. Weutilize red rectangles to mark images that are misclassified and green rectangles to mark images that are rightly classified. They are usually very hard to be rightlyclassified. We also carry out experiments on MNIST and CIFAR with synthetic noises. If the maximum prediction probability is higher than the one of given label with a threshold (set to 0.2), we believe that sample contains label noise and then change the label to the index of the maximum prediction probability.
OL-Transformer: A Fast and Universal Surrogate Simulator for Optical Multilayer Thin Film Structures
Ma, Taigao, Wang, Haozhu, Guo, L. Jay
Deep learning-based methods have recently been established as fast and accurate surrogate simulators for optical multilayer thin film structures. However, existing methods only work for limited types of structures with different material arrangements, preventing their applications towards diverse and universal structures. Here, we propose the Opto-Layer (OL) Transformer to act as a universal surrogate simulator for enormous types of structures. Combined with the technique of structure serialization, our model can predict accurate reflection and transmission spectra for up to $10^{25}$ different multilayer structures, while still achieving a six-fold degradation in simulation time compared to physical solvers. Further investigation reveals that the general learning ability comes from the fact that our model first learns the physical embeddings and then uses the self-attention mechanism to capture the hidden relationship of light-matter interaction between each layer.

Which structure of academic articles do referees pay more attention to?: perspective of peer review and full-text of academic articles
Qin, Chenglei, Zhang, Chengzhi
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to explore which structures of academic articles referees would pay more attention to, what specific content referees focus on, and whether the distribution of PRC is related to the citations. Design/methodology/approach Firstly, utilizing the feature words of section title and hierarchical attention network model (HAN) to identify the academic article structures. Secondly, analyzing the distribution of PRC in different structures according to the position information extracted by rules in PRC. Thirdly, analyzing the distribution of feature words of PRC extracted by the Chi-square test and TF-IDF in different structures. Finally, four correlation analysis methods are used to analyze whether the distribution of PRC in different structures is correlated to the citations. Findings The count of PRC distributed in Materials and Methods and Results section is significantly more than that in the structure of Introduction and Discussion, indicating that referees pay more attention to the Material and Methods and Results. The distribution of feature words of PRC in different structures is obviously different, which can reflect the content of referees' concern. There is no correlation between the distribution of PRC in different structures and the citations. Research limitations/implications Due to the differences in the way referees write peer review reports, the rules used to extract position information cannot cover all PRC. Originality/value The paper finds a pattern in the distribution of PRC in different academic article structures proving the long-term empirical understanding. It also provides insight into academic article writing: researchers should ensure the scientificity of methods and the reliability of results when writing academic article to obtain a high degree of recognition from referees.

NASA is using AI to take better pictures of the sun as
The sun may be the most powerful source of energy in the Milky Way, but NASA researchers are using artificial intelligence to get a better view of the giant ball of gas. The US space agency is using machine learning on solar telescopes, including its Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO), launched in 2010, and its Atmospheric Imagery Assembly (AIA), imaging instrument that looks constantly at the sun. This allows the agency to snap incredible pictures of the celestial giant, while limiting the effects of solar particles and'intense sunlight,' which begins to degrade lenses and sensors over time. The sun goes through an 11-year cycle where it goes from very active to less active. It is tracked by sunspots and it is currently going through a quiet phase.

Harnessing AI to Discover New Drugs: Rewriting the Rulebook for Pharmaceutical Research
Artificial intelligence (AI) is able to recognize the biological activity of natural products in a targeted manner, as researchers at ETH Zurich have demonstrated. Moreover, AI helps to find molecules that have the same effect as a natural substance but are easier to manufacture. This opens up huge possibilities for drug discovery, which also has potential to rewrite the rulebook for pharmaceutical research. Nature has a vast store of medicinal substances. "Over 50 percent of all drugs today are inspired by nature," says Gisbert Schneider, Professor of Computer- Assisted Drug Design at ETH Zurich.
Structure fusion based on graph convolutional networks for semi-supervised classification
Lin, Guangfeng, Wang, Jing, Liao, Kaiyang, Zhao, Fan, Chen, Wanjun
Suffering from the multi-view data diversity and complexity for semi-supervised classification, most of existing graph convolutional networks focus on the networks architecture construction or the salient graph structure preservation, and ignore the the complete graph structure for semi-supervised classification contribution. To mine the more complete distribution structure from multi-view data with the consideration of the specificity and the commonality, we propose structure fusion based on graph convolutional networks (SF-GCN) for improving the performance of semi-supervised classification. SF-GCN can not only retain the special characteristic of each view data by spectral embedding, but also capture the common style of multi-view data by distance metric between multi-graph structures. Suppose the linear relationship between multi-graph structures, we can construct the optimization function of structure fusion model by balancing the specificity loss and the commonality loss. By solving this function, we can simultaneously obtain the fusion spectral embedding from the multi-view data and the fusion structure as adjacent matrix to input graph convolutional networks for semi-supervised classification. Experiments demonstrate that the performance of SF-GCN outperforms that of the state of the arts on three challenging datasets, which are Cora,Citeseer and Pubmed in citation networks.
Hierarchical Meta Learning
Meta learning is a promising solution to few-shot learning problems. However, existing meta learning methods are restricted to the scenarios where training and application tasks share the same out-put structure. To obtain a meta model applicable to the tasks with new structures, it is required to collect new training data and repeat the time-consuming meta training procedure. This makes them inefficient or even inapplicable in learning to solve heterogeneous few-shot learning tasks. We thus develop a novel and principled HierarchicalMeta Learning (HML) method. Different from existing methods that only focus on optimizing the adaptability of a meta model to similar tasks, HML also explicitly optimizes its generalizability across heterogeneous tasks. To this end, HML first factorizes a set of similar training tasks into heterogeneous ones and trains the meta model over them at two levels to maximize adaptation and generalization performance respectively. The resultant model can then directly generalize to new tasks. Extensive experiments on few-shot classification and regression problems clearly demonstrate the superiority of HML over fine-tuning and state-of-the-art meta learning approaches in terms of generalization across heterogeneous tasks.
To Cognize Is to Categorize Revisited: Category Theory Is where Mathematics Meets Biology
Gomez, Jaime (Universidad Politecnica de Madrid) | Sanz, Ricardo
This paper claims for a shift towards "the formal sciences" in the cognitive sciences. In order to explain the phenomenon of cognition, including aspects such as learning and intelligence, it is necessary to explore the concepts and methodologies offered by the formal sciences. In particular, category theory is proposed as the most fitting tool for the building of an unified theory of cognition. This paper proposes a radically new view based in category theory is provided. A cognitive model is informally defined as a mapping between two different structures, while a structure is the set of components of a system and their relationships. Put formally in categorical terms, a model is a functor between categories that reflects the structural invariance between them. In the paper, the theory of categories is presented as the best possible framework to deal with complex system modeling -ie: biologically inspired systems that transcend and offer a much more powerful tool kit to deal with the phenomenon of cognition that other purely verbal tools like the psychological categories that Rosch or Harnad refer.
