Distributed access control is a crucial component for massive machine type communication (mMTC). In this communication scenario, centralized resource allocation is not scalable because resource configurations have to be sent frequently from the base station to a massive number of devices. We investigate distributed reinforcement learning for resource selection without relying on centralized control. Another important feature of mMTC is the sporadic and dynamic change of traffic. Existing studies on distributed access control assume that traffic load is static or they are able to gradually adapt to the dynamic traffic. We minimize the adaptation period by training TinyQMIX, which is a lightweight multi-agent deep reinforcement learning model, to learn a distributed wireless resource selection policy under various traffic patterns before deployment. Therefore, the trained agents are able to quickly adapt to dynamic traffic and provide low access delay. Numerical results are presented to support our claims.

Feature extraction is an initial and essential part for the development of accurate predictive machine learning classifiers. In the research field of drug discovery and development, the usage of molecular descriptors, which can be defined as mathematical representations of molecules’ chemical properties, is a challenging task not only for machine learning studies but even for "classical wet lab" approaches. However, a high diversity of these descriptors is required in order to exploit all the available knowledge and, consequently, to maximize the potentially predictive power of approaches that could be applied for the discovery of new bioactive compounds against one or more molecular targets. Furthermore, the representation and normalization of these information is considered a rather time-consuming process. Herein, we present an approach that employs the power of cloud and distributing computing for the extraction, processing and representation of big datasets, leading to the generation of molecular descriptors in a reasonable time frame.

In order to analyze specific occurrences, such as the COVID-19 pandemic’s effects, experts from a variety of professions might work together. The majority of study, such as those on economics, health, spread projections, and similar topics, focuses on just one area of the field. Therefore, several multidisciplinary teams need to collaborate in analyzing the occurring phenomena. The method employed in this research involves using Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems (RS-GIS) to observe the impact of the pandemic phenomenon on environmental conditions, specifically surface temperature warming in Bekasi Regency, Indonesia. This is due to its impact not only on health but also on other aspects. This study converts Landsat 7 and Landsat 8 images using (RS-GIS) technologies to extract thermal sensors (Band 10 and Band 11). The test results indicate that the temperature rises annually, but that it falls during the COVID-19 pandemic.

While momentum-based accelerated variants of stochastic gradient descent (SGD) are widely used when training machine learning models, there is little theoretical understanding on the generalization error of such methods. In this work, we first show that there exists a convex loss function for which the stability gap for multiple epochs of SGD with standard heavy-ball momentum (SGDM) becomes unbounded. Then, for smooth Lipschitz loss functions, we analyze a profiles momentum-based update rule, i.e., SGD with early momentum (SGDEM) under a broad range of step-sizes, and show that it can train machine learning models for multiple epochs with a guarantee for generalization. Finally, for the special case of strongly convex loss functions, we find a range of momentum such that multiple epochs of standard SGDM, as a special form of SGDEM, also generalizes. Extending our results on generalization, we also develop an upper bound on the expected true risk, in terms of the number of training steps, sample size, and momentum. Our experimental evaluations verify the consistency between the numerical results and our theoretical bounds. SGDEM improves the generalization error of SGDM when training ResNet-18 on ImageNet in practical distributed settings.

In the context of robotics, accurate 3D human pose estimation is essential for enhancing human-robot collaboration and interaction. This manuscript introduces a multi-view 2D to 3D lifting optimization-based method designed for video-based 3D human pose estimation, incorporating temporal information. Our technique addresses key challenges, namely robustness to 2D joint detection error, occlusions, and varying camera perspectives. We evaluate the performance of the algorithm through extensive experiments on the MPI-INF-3DHP dataset. Our method demonstrates very good robustness up to 25 pixels of 2D joint error and shows resilience in scenarios involving several occluded joints. Comparative analyses against existing 2D to 3D lifting and multi-view methods showcase good performance of our approach.
