Imitation learning has emerged as a promising approach for addressing sequential decision-making problems, with the assumption that expert demonstrations are optimal. However, in real-world scenarios, most demonstrations are often imperfect, leading to challenges in the effectiveness of imitation learning. While existing research has focused on optimizing with imperfect demonstrations, the training typically requires a certain proportion of optimal demonstrations to guarantee performance. To tackle these problems, we propose to purify the potential noises in imperfect demonstrations first, and subsequently conduct imitation learning from these purified demonstrations. Motivated by the success of diffusion model, we introduce a two-step purification via diffusion process. In the first step, we apply a forward diffusion process to smooth potential noises in imperfect demonstrations by introducing additional noise. Subsequently, a reverse generative process is utilized to recover the optimal demonstration from the diffused ones. We provide theoretical evidence supporting our approach, demonstrating that the distance between the purified and optimal demonstration can be bounded. Empirical results on MuJoCo and RoboSuite demonstrate the effectiveness of our method from different aspects. Copyright 2024 by the author(s)

Accurate 3D modelling of grapevines is crucial for precision viticulture, particularly for informed pruning decisions and automated management techniques. However, the intricate structure of grapevines poses significant challenges for traditional skeletonization algorithms. This paper presents an adaptation of the Smart-Tree algorithm for 3D grapevine modelling, addressing the unique characteristics of grapevine structures. We introduce a graph-based method for disambiguating skeletonization. Our method delineates individual cane skeletons, which are crucial for precise analysis and management. We validate our approach using annotated real-world grapevine point clouds, demonstrating an improvement of 15.8% in the F1 score compared to the original Smart-Tree algorithm. This research contributes to advancing 3D grapevine modelling techniques, potentially enhancing both the sustainability and profitability of grape production through more precise and automated viticulture practices.

A strong foundation for a project is the first step to measuring or estimating the success parameters of a project. Requirement engineers gather and elicit the requirements of the project in detail after the feasibility study. A project’s success can be measured/estimated if and only if the initially collected requirements are clear, unambiguous, and well-understood. Similarly, ambiguous or not understandable requirements can lead to failure or closure of the project in disastrous form. An initial step in requirement elicitation is usually gathering requirements in natural language. This study analyzes different tools, techniques, and approaches in different research articles used for detecting ambiguities in requirements in the natural language. We identified 33 research articles, published during 2012-24 through a Systematic Literature Review. For automated ambiguities detection in requirements engineering, we identified 17 tools & techniques and 12 NLP approaches. We analyzed the better approach for cross-domain ambiguity detection. SGNS (Skipgram Negative Sampling) variant of Word2Vec for the cross-domain ambiguity detection in the review of the study, resulted to be the most efficient technique implemented with the usage view and easily scalable for multiple requirements and domains.
