Mila organise son premier hackathon en informatique quantique le 21 novembre. Une journée unique pour explorer le prototypage quantique et l’IA, collaborer sur les plateformes de Quandela et IBM, et apprendre, échanger et réseauter dans un environnement stimulant au cœur de l’écosystème québécois en IA et en quantique.
Une nouvelle initiative pour renforcer les liens entre la communauté de recherche, les partenaires et les expert·e·s en IA à travers le Québec et le Canada, grâce à des rencontres et événements en présentiel axés sur l’adoption de l’IA dans l’industrie.

Visual Question Answering From Another Perspective: CLEVR Mental Rotation Tests
In this paper, we explore new approaches to combining information encoded within the learned representations of auto-encoders. We explore mo… (voir plus)dels that are capable of combining the attributes of multiple inputs such that a resynthesised output is trained to fool an adversarial discriminator for real versus synthesised data. Furthermore, we explore the use of such an architecture in the context of semi-supervised learning, where we learn a mixing function whose objective is to produce interpolations of hidden states, or masked combinations of latent representations that are consistent with a conditioned class label. We show quantitative and qualitative evidence that such a formulation is an interesting avenue of research.

We present an unsupervised approach for learning to estimate three dimensional (3D) facial structure from a single image while also predicti… (voir plus)ng 3D viewpoint transformations that match a desired pose and facial geometry. We achieve this by inferring the depth of facial keypoints of an input image in an unsupervised manner, without using any form of ground-truth depth information. We show how it is possible to use these depths as intermediate computations within a new backpropable loss to predict the parameters of a 3D affine transformation matrix that maps inferred 3D keypoints of an input face to the corresponding 2D keypoints on a desired target facial geometry or pose. Our resulting approach, called DepthNets, can therefore be used to infer plausible 3D transformations from one face pose to another, allowing faces to be frontalized, transformed into 3D models or even warped to another pose and facial geometry. Lastly, we identify certain shortcomings with our formulation, and explore adversarial image translation techniques as a post-processing step to re-synthesize complete head shots for faces re-targeted to different poses or identities.
Theano is a Python library that allows to define, optimize, and evaluate mathematical expressions involving multi-dimensional arrays efficie… (voir plus)ntly. Since its introduction, it has been one of the most used CPU and GPU mathematical compilers - especially in the machine learning community - and has shown steady performance improvements. Theano is being actively and continuously developed since 2008, multiple frameworks have been built on top of it and it has been used to produce many state-of-the-art machine learning models.
The present article is structured as follows. Section I provides an overview of the Theano software and its community. Section II presents the principal features of Theano and how to use them, and compares them with other similar projects. Section III focuses on recently-introduced functionalities and improvements. Section IV compares the performance of Theano against Torch7 and TensorFlow on several machine learning models. Section V discusses current limitations of Theano and potential ways of improving it.
