In recent years, natural language generative models have shown outstanding performance in text generation tasks. However, when facing specific tasks or particular requirements, they may exhibit poor performance or require adjustments that demand large amounts of additional data. This work introduces PAGE (Prompt Augmentation for text Generation Enhancement), a framework designed to assist these models through the use of simple auxiliary modules. These modules, lightweight models such as classifiers or extractors, provide inferences from the input text. The output of these auxiliaries is then used to construct an enriched input that improves the quality and controllability of the generation. Unlike other generation-assistance approaches, PAGE does not require auxiliary generative models; instead, it proposes a simpler, modular architecture that is easy to adapt to different tasks. This paper presents the proposal, its components and architecture, and reports a proof of concept in the domain of requirements engineering, where an auxiliary module with a classifier is used to improve the quality of software requirements generation.

This brief study focuses on the application of autoencoders to improve the quality of low-amplitude signals, such as gravitational events. A pre-existing autoencoder was trained using cosmic event data, optimizing its architecture and parameters. The results show a significant increase in the signal-to-noise ratio of the processed signals, demonstrating the potential of autoencoders in the analysis of small signals with multiple sources of interference.

Training large-scale deep learning models has become a key challenge for the scientific community and industry. While the massive use of GPUs can significantly speed up training times, this approach has a negative impact on efficiency. In this article, we present a detailed analysis of the times reported by MLPerf Training v4.1 on four workloads: BERT, Llama2 LoRA, RetinaNet, and Stable Diffusion, showing that there are configurations that optimise the relationship between performance, GPU usage, and efficiency. The results point to a break-even point that allows training times to be reduced while maximising efficiency.

Facial recognition powered by Artificial Intelligence has achieved high accuracy in specific scenarios and applications. Nevertheless, it faces significant challenges regarding privacy and identity management, particularly when unknown individuals appear in the operational context. This paper presents the design, implementation, and evaluation of a facial recognition system within a federated learning framework tailored to open-set scenarios. The proposed approach integrates the OpenMax algorithm into federated learning, leveraging the exchange of mean activation vectors and local distance measures to reliably distinguish between known and unknown subjects. Experimental results validate the effectiveness of the proposed solution, demonstrating its potential for enhancing privacy-aware and robust facial recognition in distributed environments. -- El reconocimiento facial impulsado por Inteligencia Artificial ha demostrado una alta precisión en algunos escenarios y aplicaciones. Sin embargo, presenta desafíos relacionados con la privacidad y la identificación de personas, especialmente considerando que pueden aparecer sujetos desconocidos para el sistema que lo implementa. En este trabajo, se propone el diseño, implementación y evaluación de un sistema de reconocimiento facial en un escenario de aprendizaje federado, orientado a conjuntos abiertos. Concretamente, se diseña una solución basada en el algoritmo OpenMax para escenarios de aprendizaje federado. La propuesta emplea el intercambio de los vectores de activación promedio y distancias locales para identificar de manera eficaz tanto personas conocidas como desconocidas. Los experimentos realizados demuestran la implementación efectiva de la solución propuesta.

Large language models, such as the well-known ChatGPT, have brought about an unexpected revolution in the field of artificial intelligence. On the one hand, they have numerous practical applications and enormous potential still to be explored. On the other hand, they are also the subject of debate from scientific, philosophical, and social perspectives: there are doubts about the exact mechanisms of their functioning and their actual capacity for language comprehension, and their applications raise ethical dilemmas. In this chapter, we describe how this technology has been developed and the fundamentals of its operation, allowing us to better understand its capabilities and limitations and to introduce some of the main debates surrounding its development and use. -- Los grandes modelos de lenguaje, como el conocido ChatGPT, han supuesto una inesperada revoluci\'on en el \'ambito de la inteligencia artificial.

Diffusion-based generative models are a design framework that allows generating new images from processes analogous to those found in non-equilibrium thermodynamics. These models model the reversal of a physical diffusion process in which two miscible liquids of different colors progressively mix until they form a homogeneous mixture. Diffusion models can be applied to signals of a different nature, such as audio and image signals. In the image case, a progressive pixel corruption process is carried out by applying random noise, and a neural network is trained to revert each one of the corruption steps. For the reconstruction process to be reversible, it is necessary to carry out the corruption very progressively. If the training of the neural network is successful, it will be possible to generate an image from random noise by chaining a number of steps similar to those used for image deconstruction at training time. In this article we present the theoretical foundations on which this method is based as well as some of its applications. This article is in Spanish to facilitate the arrival of this scientific knowledge to the Spanish-speaking community.

Generative adversarial networks (GANs) are a method based on the training of two neural networks, one called generator and the other discriminator, competing with each other to generate new instances that resemble those of the probability distribution of the training data. GANs have a wide range of applications in fields such as computer vision, semantic segmentation, time series synthesis, image editing, natural language processing, and image generation from text, among others. Generative models model the probability distribution of a data set, but instead of providing a probability value, they generate new instances that are close to the original distribution. GANs use a learning scheme that allows the defining attributes of the probability distribution to be encoded in a neural network, allowing instances to be generated that resemble the original probability distribution. This article presents the theoretical foundations of this type of network as well as the basic architecture schemes and some of its applications. This article is in Spanish to facilitate the arrival of this scientific knowledge to the Spanish-speaking community.

In this paper we present the experimental results of the neural network control of a servo-system in order to control its speed. The control strategy is implemented by using an inverse-model control based on Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs). The network training was performed using two learning algorithms: Levenberg-Marquardt and Bayesian regularization. We evaluate the generalization capability for each method according to both the correct operation of the controller to follow the reference signal, and the control efforts developed by the ANN-based controller.

The email is used daily by millions of people to communicate around the globe and it is a mission-critical application for many businesses. Over the last decade, unsolicited bulk email has become a major problem for email users. An overwhelming amount of spam is flowing into users' mailboxes daily. In 2004, an estimated 62% of all email was attributed to spam. Spam is not only frustrating for most email users, it strains the IT infrastructure of organizations and costs businesses billions of dollars in lost productivity. In recent years, spam has evolved from an annoyance into a serious security threat, and is now a prime medium for phishing of sensitive information, as well the spread of malicious software. This work presents a first approach to attack the spam problem. We propose an algorithm that will improve a classifier's results by adjusting its training set data. It improves the document's vocabulary representation by detecting good topic descriptors and discriminators.
