This session was an open forum where audience members were invited to participate in discussions of a number of themes with relevance to ethics and technology and to future conferences in the IEEE ETHICS series. The discussions took place in small groups, with groups reporting back to the full cohort for collaborative brainstorming.
Score-based generative models can effectively learn the distribution of data by estimating the gradient of the distribution. Due to the multi-step denoising characteristic, researchers have recently considered combini...

Manila Bay is a significant contributor to the Philippines' fish production, but its resources have been depleted due to overfishing, pollution, and damage, leading to a decline in fish catch and a shift towards less valuable species. Conventional approaches to fisheries stock assessment impose constraints on our comprehension of fish population dynamics. These limitations can be overcome through the utilization of machine learning techniques, which enable the forecasting and modeling of fisheries populations with improved accuracy and understanding. In this study, the commercial fisheries populations data collected from 2018 to 2021 in Manila Bay were used to predict the abundance of species fisheries production data using the K-NN - MLP - Logistic Regression (KNMLPR) model based on the majority voting ensemble approach. Analysis revealed that it is possible to combine the strengths of multiple models and improve overall predictive performance. The results also suggest that the k-nearest neighbors and logistic regression models have the best performance in predicting fish species population dynamics, while the neural network model shows slightly lower accuracy. This study provides valuable insights for fishery management and policymaking to support sustainable fishing practices in the region. Further research could focus on exploring additional machine learning algorithms and incorporating environmental factors to improve the prediction accuracy of the model.

Aedes aegypti is the dengue fever vector, affecting 3.9 billion people worldwide. Found primarily in subtropical areas such as the Philippines. Numerous approaches and procedures had used to identify this disease carrier throughout its life cycle. However, recognizing it early, primarily during the egg stage, helps monitor the disease carrier's existence. On the other hand, classifying the egg remains an issue due to its resemblance to another mosquito species. As a result, extracted traits of the Aedes egg had added to the classification model. Furthermore, the Support Vector Machine algorithm's effectiveness as a classifier improves classification accuracy, mainly when the feature extracted has been added. Thus, this paper used the Support Vector Machine in designing a model to classify Aedes aegypti eggs. This model differentiates it from non-Aedes with a classification accuracy of 98.23%, which is greater than the classification accuracy compared to previous studies using the pixel and region-based method. In addition, the newly developed model had increased accuracy compared to the model in which the features had omitted from the classification process by 3.26 percent. In addition, the model was validated on a non-Aedes dataset in which it exhibited similar characteristics. As a result, the model reveals improved categorization and is determined to be non-Aedes. Thus, this model demonstrates a considerable boost in classification accuracy.

This work presents an energy-efficient Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) hardware architecture exploiting approximate adder circuits. The FFT hardware architecture consists of a fixed-point fully sequential architecture with a radix-2 butterfly with decimation in time (DIT). In this paper, we explore a set of approximate adders (LOA, ETA-I, Copy-A, Copy-B, Trunc0, Trunc1) in the butterfly by varying the approximation level (K term). The Root-Mean-Square Error (RMSE) metric shows which approximate level term allows the FFT processing without widely signal losses. The results show that our best-proposed FFT employing Trunc0 approximate adder with K =10 saves up to 35% of power dissipation compared to the FFT with the original radix-2 butterfly using the synthesis tool operators.

We investigate the use of animal videos (observations) to improve Reinforcement Learning (RL) efficiency and performance in navigation tasks with sparse rewards. Motivated by theoretical considerations, we make use of weighted policy optimization for off-policy RL and describe the main challenges when learning from animal videos. We propose solutions and test our ideas on a 2D navigation task. We show how the use of animal videos improves performance over RL algorithms that do not leverage such observations.
