朱飞:面向开放环境的未知拒识

朱飞博士于2024年8月21日下午14点-15点在工学院南楼722会议室,为我们带来报告,主题为:面向开放环境的未知拒识。 个人简介: 朱飞博士于2018年获清华大学学士学位,2023年获中科院自动化所模式识别与智能系统博士学位。主要研究开放环境下的可信与持续学习理论与方法,在国际顶级学术会议和顶级期刊上发表论文十来篇。 演讲摘要: 随着人工智能技术的发展,深度模型在各种感知与学习任务上取得了显著的性能突破。然而,这些优异的表现大多依赖于静态、封闭的测试环境。在真实的开放环境中,面对动态复杂的输入数据,深度模型(包括基础模型)往往对其预测过度自信,既不能对已知类别给出可靠的置信度,也不能拒识未知类别或噪声模式,给实际应用带来了安全隐患。为了提升模型在开放环境中的可靠性,本报告分析不同拒识任务之间的关系和已有方法的通用性,揭示模型训练过程中存在的可靠性过拟合现象,在此基础上介绍几种简洁有效的未知拒识方法。最后,我们对未知拒识研究进行总结和展望。

林雨洲:针对肌电控制应用的稳健及可靠的手势识别

林雨洲博士于2023年8月25日下午14点30分-15点30分在工学院南楼812会议室,为我们带来报告,主题为:针对肌电控制应用的稳健及可靠的手势识别。 个人简介: 林雨洲分别于2015年和2016年获得英国谢菲尔德大学 (University of Sheftield) 自动控制与系续工程系的本科学士和硕士学位。他还于近期在英国肯特大学(University of Kent) 获得了计算机科学博士学位。在他的学士历程中,他对基于生物信号的人机交互,深度学习,康复工程和生物医学工程表现出浓厚的兴趣。出于对跨学科研究的热情,林雨洲致力于填补科学技术和医疗应用之间的空白,并希望借助它的专业知识推动技术的创新,为提升人类福祉尽一份绵薄之力。 演讲摘要: 在人机交互的大背景下,肌肉-计算机交互系统是通过将肌电信号转化为传达用户运动意图的交互命令来进行控制。近些年,倚靠于机器学习和深度学习技术的迅猛进展,基于手势识别的肌电控制的研究正在兴起。 毫无疑问的是,这种模式的肌电控制非常依赖于手势识别本身的性能。然而,尽管极高的手势识别准确率(>90%]在科学研究中屡屡被报道,但其在临床或商业领域的影响却极其有限。其中最有可能的原因就是,这类系统的鲁棒性欠佳,因为它极其容易被多种因素影响,比如电极移位、出汗、肌肉疲劳甚至是环境因素的变化。任何一个小的因素都有可能导致训练好的模型在实时应用端表现不如预期。因此,针对这类模式识别问题,一味的追求准确率是不可取的,模型的鲁棒性以及可靠性研究也应该得到足够的重视。 本报告将首先介绍一种新的模型设计框架,它能够极大的增加模型的可靠性,通过让模型能够在给出推断结果的同时,提供多维度的可理解的置信度。其次,为了填补领域内对模型可靠性定义缺乏共识的空白,该报告对模型可靠性进行了适当的定义。基于这个定义,研究人员可以对模型进行可靠性分析,从而使其作为一种新的评估维度,连同模型准确率一起,对模型的性能进行综合性的分析。更重要的是,该报告将展示通过这一模型设计框架设计出来的可靠模型,是如何解决在时间层面上手势识别低鲁棒性这一实际问题的。最后,未来一些可能的在相关研究领域方向上的拓展将被提出来讨论。
