This equivalence allows tractable learning using standard neural network optimisation tools,leading to accurate and stable optimisation.Experimental results show the fused feature works better than individual features,thus proving for thefirst time that facial attributes aid face recognition. We achieve state-of-the-art performance on three popular databases:MultiPIE(cross pose,lighting and expression), CASIA NIR-VIS2.0(cross-modality environment)and LFW (uncontrolled environment).1.IntroductionFace recognition has advanced dramatically with the ad-vent of bigger datasets,and improved methodologies for generating features that are variant to identity but invari-ant to covariates such as pose,expression and illumination. Deep learning methodologies[41,40,42,32]have proven particularly effective recently,thanks to end-to-endrepre-Figure1:A sample attribute list is given(col.1)which per-tains to the images of the same individual at different poses (col.2).While the similarity scores for each dimension vary in the face recognition feature(FRF)set(col.3),the face at-tribute feature(FAF)set(col.4)remains very similar.The fused features(col.5)are more similar and a higher similar-ity score(0.89)is achieved.sentation learning with a discriminative face recognition ob-jective.Nevertheless,the resulting features still show im-perfect invariance to the strong intra-personal variations in real-world scenarios.We observe that facial attributes pro-vide a robust invariant cue in such challenging scenarios.For example gender and ethnicity are likely to be invariant to pose and expression,while eyebrow thickness may be invariant to lighting and resolution.Overall,face recogni-tion features(FRF)are very discriminative but less robust;while facial attribute features(FAF)are robust but less dis-criminative.Thus these two features are potentially com-plementary,if a suitable fusion method can be devised.To the best of our knowledge,we are thefirst to systematically explore the fusion of FAF and FRF in various face recog-nition scenarios.We empirically show that this fusion can greatly enhance face recognition performance.Though facial attributes are an important cue for face recognition,in practice,wefind the existing fusion meth-ods including early(feature)or late(score)fusion cannot reliably improve the performance[34].In particular,while 1offering some robustness,FAF is generally less discrimina-tive than FRF.Existing methods cannot synergistically fuse such asymmetric features,and usually lead to worse perfor-mance than achieved by the stronger feature(FRF)only.In this work,we propose a novel tensor-based fusion frame-work that is uniquely capable of fusing the very asymmet-ric FAF and FRF.Our framework provides a more powerful and robust fusion approach than existing strategies by learn-ing from all interactions between the two feature views.To train the tensor in a tractable way given the large number of required parameters,we formulate the optimisation with an identity-supervised objective by constraining the tensor to have a low-rank form.We establish an equivalence be-tween this low-rank tensor and a two-stream gated neural network.Given this equivalence,the proposed tensor is eas-ily optimised with standard deep neural network toolboxes. Our technical contributions are:•It is thefirst work to systematically investigate and ver-ify that facial attributes are an important cue in various face recognition scenarios.In particular,we investi-gate face recognition with extreme pose variations,i.e.±90◦from frontal,showing that attributes are impor-tant for performance enhancement.•A rich tensor-based fusion framework is proposed.We show the low-rank Tucker-decomposition of this tensor-based fusion has an equivalent Gated Two-stream Neural Network(GTNN),allowing easy yet effective optimisation by neural network learning.In addition,we bring insights from neural networks into thefield of tensor optimisation.The code is available:https:///yanghuadr/ Neural-Tensor-Fusion-Network•We achieve state-of-the-art face recognition perfor-mance using the fusion of face(newly designed‘Lean-Face’deep learning feature)and attribute-based fea-tures on three popular databases:MultiPIE(controlled environment),CASIA NIR-VIS2.0(cross-modality environment)and LFW(uncontrolled environment).2.Related WorkFace Recognition.The face representation(feature)is the most important component in contemporary face recog-nition system.There are two types:hand-crafted and deep learning features.Widely used hand-crafted face descriptors include Local Binary Pattern(LBP)[26],Gaborfilters[23],-pared to pixel values,these features are variant to identity and relatively invariant to intra-personal variations,and thus they achieve promising performance in controlled environ-ments.However,they perform less well on face recognition in uncontrolled environments(FRUE).There are two main routes to improve FRUE performance with hand-crafted features,one is to use very high dimensional features(dense sampling features)[5]and the other is to enhance the fea-tures with downstream metric learning.Unlike hand-crafted features where(in)variances are en-gineered,deep learning features learn the(in)variances from data.Recently,convolutional neural networks(CNNs) achieved impressive results on FRUE.DeepFace[44],a carefully designed8-layer CNN,is an early landmark method.Another well-known line of work is DeepID[41] and its variants DeepID2[40],DeepID2+[42].The DeepID family uses an ensemble of many small CNNs trained in-dependently using different facial patches to improve the performance.In addition,some CNNs originally designed for object recognition,such as VGGNet[38]and Incep-tion[43],were also used for face recognition[29,32].Most recently,a center loss[47]is introduced to learn more dis-criminative features.Facial Attribute Recognition.Facial attribute recog-nition(FAR)is also well studied.A notable early study[21] extracted carefully designed hand-crafted features includ-ing aggregations of colour spaces and image gradients,be-fore training an independent SVM to detect each attribute. As for face recognition,deep learning features now outper-form hand-crafted features for FAR.In[24],face detection and attribute recognition CNNs are carefully designed,and the output of the face detection network is fed into the at-tribute network.An alternative to purpose designing CNNs for FAR is tofine-tune networks intended for object recog-nition[56,57].From a representation learning perspective, the features supporting different attribute detections may be shared,leading some studies to investigate multi-task learn-ing facial attributes[55,30].Since different facial attributes have different prevalence,the multi-label/multi-task learn-ing suffers from label-imbalance,which[30]addresses us-ing a mixed objective optimization network(MOON). Face Recognition using Facial Attributes.Detected facial attributes can be applied directly to authentication. Facial attributes have been applied to enhance face verifica-tion,primarily in the case of cross-modal matching,byfil-tering[19,54](requiring potential FRF matches to have the correct gender,for example),model switching[18],or ag-gregation with conventional features[27,17].[21]defines 65facial attributes and proposes binary attribute classifiers to predict their presence or absence.The vector of attribute classifier scores can be used for face recognition.There has been little work on attribute-enhanced face recognition in the context of deep learning.One of the few exploits CNN-based attribute features for authentication on mobile devices [31].Local facial patches are fed into carefully designed CNNs to predict different attributes.After CNN training, SVMs are trained for attribute recognition,and the vector of SVM scores provide the new feature for face verification.Fusion Methods.Existing fusion approaches can be classified into feature-level(early fusion)and score-level (late fusion).Score-level fusion is to fuse the similarity scores after computation based on each view either by sim-ple averaging[37]or stacking another classifier[48,37]. Feature-level fusion can be achieved by either simple fea-ture aggregation or subspace learning.For aggregation ap-proaches,fusion is usually performed by simply element wise averaging or product(the dimension of features have to be the same)or concatenation[28].For subspace learn-ing approaches,the features arefirst concatenated,then the concatenated feature is projected to a subspace,in which the features should better complement each other.These sub-space approaches can be unsupervised or supervised.Un-supervised fusion does not use the identity(label)informa-tion to learn the subspace,such as Canonical Correlational Analysis(CCA)[35]and Bilinear Models(BLM)[45].In comparison,supervised fusion uses the identity information such as Linear Discriminant Analysis(LDA)[3]and Local-ity Preserving Projections(LPP)[9].Neural Tensor Methods.Learning tensor-based compu-tations within neural networks has been studied for full[39] and decomposed[16,52,51]tensors.However,aside from differing applications and objectives,the key difference is that we establish a novel equivalence between a rich Tucker [46]decomposed low-rank fusion tensor,and a gated two-stream neural network.This allows us achieve expressive fusion,while maintaining tractable computation and a small number of parameters;and crucially permits easy optimisa-tion of the fusion tensor through standard toolboxes. Motivation.Facial attribute features(FAF)and face recognition features(FRF)are complementary.However in practice,wefind that existing fusion methods often can-not effectively combine these asymmetric features so as to improve performance.This motivates us to design a more powerful fusion method,as detailed in Section3.Based on our neural tensor fusion method,in Section5we system-atically explore the fusion of FAF and FRF in various face recognition environments,showing that FAF can greatly en-hance recognition performance.3.Fusing attribute and recognition featuresIn this section we present our strategy for fusing FAF and FRF.Our goal is to input FAF and FRF and output the fused discriminative feature.The proposed fusion method we present here performs significantly better than the exist-ing ones introduced in Section2.In this section,we detail our tensor-based fusion strategy.3.1.ModellingSingle Feature.We start from a standard multi-class clas-sification problem setting:assume we have M instances, and for each we extract a D-dimensional feature vector(the FRF)as{x(i)}M i=1.The label space contains C unique classes(person identities),so each instance is associated with a corresponding C-dimensional one-hot encoding la-bel vector{y(i)}M i=1.Assuming a linear model W the pre-dictionˆy(i)is produced by the dot-product of input x(i)and the model W,ˆy(i)=x(i)T W.(1) Multiple Feature.Suppose that apart from the D-dimensional FRF vector,we can also obtain an instance-wise B-dimensional facial attribute feature z(i).Then the input for the i th instance is a pair:{x(i),z(i)}.A simple ap-proach is to redefine x(i):=[x(i),z(i)],and directly apply Eq.(1),thus modelling weights for both FRF and FAF fea-tures.Here we propose instead a non-linear fusion method via the following formulationˆy(i)=W×1x(i)×3z(i)(2) where W is the fusion model parameters in the form of a third-order tensor of size D×C×B.Notation×is the tensor dot product(also known as tensor contraction)and the left-subscript of x and z indicates at which axis the ten-sor dot product operates.With Eq.(2),the optimisation problem is formulated as:minW1MMi=1W×1x(i)×3z(i),y(i)(3)where (·,·)is a loss function.This trains tensor W to fuse FRF and FAF features so that identity is correctly predicted.3.2.OptimisationThe proposed tensor W provides a rich fusion model. However,compared with W,W is B times larger(D×C vs D×C×B)because of the introduction of B-dimensional attribute vector.It is also almost B times larger than train-ing a matrix W on the concatenation[x(i),z(i)].It is there-fore problematic to directly optimise Eq.(3)because the large number of parameters of W makes training slow and leads to overfitting.To address this we propose a tensor de-composition technique and a neural network architecture to solve an equivalent optimisation problem in the following two subsections.3.2.1Tucker Decomposition for Feature FusionTo reduce the number of parameters of W,we place a struc-tural constraint on W.Motivated by the famous Tucker de-composition[46]for tensors,we assume that W is synthe-sised fromW=S×1U(D)×2U(C)×3U(B).(4) Here S is a third order tensor of size K D×K C×K B, U(D)is a matrix of size K D×D,U(C)is a matrix of sizeK C×C,and U(B)is a matrix of size K B×B.By restricting K D D,K C C,and K B B,we can effectively reduce the number of parameters from(D×C×B)to (K D×K C×K B+K D×D+K C×C+K B×B)if we learn{S,U(D),U(C),U(B)}instead of W.When W is needed for making the predictions,we can always synthesise it from those four small factors.In the context of tensor decomposition,(K D,K C,K B)is usually called the tensor’s rank,as an analogous concept to the rank of a matrix in matrix decomposition.Note that,despite of the existence of other tensor de-composition choices,Tucker decomposition offers a greater flexibility in terms of modelling because we have three hyper-parameters K D,K C,K B corresponding to the axes of the tensor.In contrast,the other famous decomposition, CP[10]has one hyper-parameter K for all axes of tensor.By substituting Eq.(4)into Eq.(2),we haveˆy(i)=W×1x(i)×3z(i)=S×1U(D)×2U(C)×3U(B)×1x(i)×3z(i)(5) Through some re-arrangement,Eq.(5)can be simplified as ˆy(i)=S×1(U(D)x(i))×2U(C)×3(U(B)z(i))(6) Furthermore,we can rewrite Eq.(6)as,ˆy(i)=((U(D)x(i))⊗(U(B)z(i)))S T(2)fused featureU(C)(7)where⊗is Kronecker product.Since U(D)x(i)and U(B)B(i)result in K D and K B dimensional vectors re-spectively,(U(D)x(i))⊗(U(B)z(i))produces a K D K B vector.S(2)is the mode-2unfolding of S which is aK C×K D K B matrix,and its transpose S T(2)is a matrix ofsize K D K B×K C.The Fused Feature.From Eq.(7),the explicit fused representation of face recognition(x(i))and facial at-tribute(z(i))features can be achieved.The fused feature ((U(D)x(i))⊗(U(B)z(i)))S T(2),is a vector of the dimen-sionality K C.And matrix U(C)has the role of“clas-sifier”given this fused feature.Given{x(i),z(i),y(i)}, the matrices{U(D),U(B),U(C)}and tensor S are com-puted(learned)during model optimisation(training).Dur-ing testing,the predictionˆy(i)is achieved with the learned {U(D),U(B),U(C),S}and two test features{x(i),z(i)} following Eq.(7).3.2.2Gated Two-stream Neural Network(GTNN)A key advantage of reformulating Eq.(5)into Eq.(7)is that we can nowfind a neural network architecture that does ex-actly the computation of Eq.(7),which would not be obvi-ous if we stopped at Eq.(5).Before presenting thisneural Figure2:Gated two-stream neural network to implement low-rank tensor-based fusion.The architecture computes Eq.(7),with the Tucker decomposition in Eq.(4).The network is identity-supervised at train time,and feature in the fusion layer used as representation for verification. network,we need to introduce a new deterministic layer(i.e. without any learnable parameters).Kronecker Product Layer takes two arbitrary-length in-put vectors{u,v}where u=[u1,u2,···,u P]and v=[v1,v2,···,v Q],then outputs a vector of length P Q as[u1v1,u1v2,···,u1v Q,u2v1,···,u P v Q].Using the introduced Kronecker layer,Fig.2shows the neural network that computes Eq.(7).That is,the neural network that performs recognition using tensor-based fu-sion of two features(such as FAF and FRF),based on the low-rank assumption in Eq.(4).We denote this architecture as a Gated Two-stream Neural Network(GTNN),because it takes two streams of inputs,and it performs gating[36] (multiplicative)operations on them.The GTNN is trained in a supervised fashion to predict identity.In this work,we use a multitask loss:softmax loss and center loss[47]for joint training.The fused feature in the viewpoint of GTNN is the output of penultimate layer, which is of dimensionality K c.So far,the advantage of using GTNN is obvious.Direct use of Eq.(5)or Eq.(7)requires manual derivation and im-plementation of an optimiser which is non-trivial even for decomposed matrices(2d-tensors)[20].In contrast,GTNN is easily implemented with modern deep learning packages where auto-differentiation and gradient-based optimisation is handled robustly and automatically.3.3.DiscussionCompared with the fusion methods introduced in Sec-tion2,we summarise the advantages of our tensor-based fusion method as follows:Figure3:LeanFace.‘C’is a group of convolutional layers.Stage1:64@5×5(64feature maps are sliced to two groups of32ones, which are fed into maxout function.);Stage2:64@3×3,64@3×3,128@3×3,128@3×3;Stage3:196@3×3,196@3×3, 256@3×3,256@3×3,320@3×3,320@3×3;Stage4:512@3×3,512@3×3,512@3×3,512@3×3;Stage5:640@ 5×5,640@5×5.‘P’stands for2×2max pooling.The strides for the convolutional and pooling layers are1and2,respectively.‘FC’is a fully-connected layer of256D.High Order Non-Linearity.Unlike linear methods based on averaging,concatenation,linear subspace learning [8,27],or LDA[3],our fusion method is non-linear,which is more powerful to model complex problems.Further-more,comparing with otherfirst-order non-linear methods based on element-wise combinations only[28],our method is higher order:it accounts for all interactions between each pair of feature channels in both views.Thanks to the low-rank modelling,our method achieves such powerful non-linear fusion with few parameters and thus it is robust to overfitting.Scalability.Big datasets are required for state-of-the-art face representation learning.Because we establish the equivalence between tensor factorisation and gated neural network architecture,our method is scalable to big-data through efficient mini-batch SGD-based learning.In con-trast,kernel-based non-linear methods,such as Kernel LDA [34]and multi-kernel SVM[17],are restricted to small data due to their O(N2)computation cost.At runtime,our method only requires a simple feed-forward pass and hence it is also favourable compared to kernel methods. Supervised method.GTNN isflexibly supervised by any desired neural network loss function.For example,the fusion method can be trained with losses known to be ef-fective for face representation learning:identity-supervised softmax,and centre-loss[47].Alternative methods are ei-ther unsupervised[8,27],constrained in the types of super-vision they can exploit[3,17],or only stack scores rather than improving a learned representation[48,37].There-fore,they are relatively ineffective at learning how to com-bine the two-source information in a task-specific way. Extensibility.Our GTNN naturally can be extended to deeper architectures.For example,the pre-extracted fea-tures,i.e.,x and z in Fig.2,can be replaced by two full-sized CNNs without any modification.Therefore,poten-tially,our methods can be integrated into an end-to-end framework.4.Integration with CNNs:architectureIn this section,we introduce the CNN architectures used for face recognition(LeanFace)designed by ourselves and facial attribute recognition(AttNet)introduced by[50,30]. LeanFace.Unlike general object recognition,face recognition has to capture very subtle difference between people.Motivated by thefine-grain object recognition in [4],we also use a large number of convolutional layers at early stage to capture the subtle low level and mid-level in-formation.Our activation function is maxout,which shows better performance than its competitors[50].Joint supervi-sion of softmax loss and center loss[47]is used for training. The architecture is summarised in Fig.3.AttNet.To detect facial attributes,our AttNet uses the ar-chitecture of Lighten CNN[50]to represent a face.Specifi-cally,AttNet consists of5conv-activation-pooling units fol-lowed by a256D fully connected layer.The number of con-volutional kernels is explained in[50].The activation func-tion is Max-Feature-Map[50]which is a variant of maxout. We use the loss function MOON[30],which is a multi-task loss for(1)attribute classification and(2)domain adaptive data balance.In[24],an ontology of40facial attributes are defined.We remove attributes which do not characterise a specific person,e.g.,‘wear glasses’and‘smiling’,leaving 17attributes in total.Once each network is trained,the features extracted from the penultimate fully-connected layers of LeanFace(256D) and AttNet(256D)are extracted as x and z,and input to GTNN for fusion and then face recognition.5.ExperimentsWefirst introduce the implementation details of our GTNN method.In Section5.1,we conduct experiments on MultiPIE[7]to show that facial attributes by means of our GTNN method can play an important role on improv-Table1:Network training detailsImage size BatchsizeLR1DF2EpochTraintimeLeanFace128x1282560.0010.15491hAttNet0.050.8993h1Learning rate(LR)2Learning rate drop factor(DF).ing face recognition performance in the presence of pose, illumination and expression,respectively.Then,we com-pare our GTNN method with other fusion methods on CA-SIA NIR-VIS2.0database[22]in Section5.2and LFW database[12]in Section5.3,respectively. Implementation Details.In this study,three networks (LeanFace,AttNet and GTNN)are discussed.LeanFace and AttNet are implemented using MXNet[6]and GTNN uses TensorFlow[1].We use around6M training face thumbnails covering62K different identities to train Lean-Face,which has no overlapping with all the test databases. AttNet is trained using CelebA[24]database.The input of GTNN is two256D features from bottleneck layers(i.e., fully connected layers before prediction layers)of LeanFace and AttNet.The setting of main parameters are shown in Table1.Note that the learning rates drop when the loss stops decreasing.Specifically,the learning rates change4 and2times for LeanFace and AttNet respectively.Dur-ing test,LeanFace and AttNet take around2.9ms and3.2ms to extract feature from one input image and GTNN takes around2.1ms to fuse one pair of LeanFace and AttNet fea-ture using a GTX1080Graphics Card.5.1.Multi-PIE DatabaseMulti-PIE database[7]contains more than750,000im-ages of337people recorded in4sessions under diverse pose,illumination and expression variations.It is an ideal testbed to investigate if facial attribute features(FAF) complement face recognition features(FRF)including tra-ditional hand-crafted(LBP)and deeply learned features (LeanFace)to improve the face recognition performance–particularly across extreme pose variation.Settings.We conduct three experiments to investigate pose-,illumination-and expression-invariant face recogni-tion.Pose:Uses images across4sessions with pose vari-ations only(i.e.,neutral lighting and expression).It covers pose with yaw ranging from left90◦to right90◦.In com-parison,most of the existing works only evaluate perfor-mance on poses with yaw range(-45◦,+45◦).Illumination: Uses images with20different illumination conditions(i.e., frontal pose and neutral expression).Expression:Uses im-ages with7different expression variations(i.e.,frontal pose and neutral illumination).The training sets of all settings consist of the images from thefirst200subjects and the re-maining137subjects for testing.Following[59,14],in the test set,frontal images with neural illumination and expres-sion from the earliest session work as gallery,and the others are probes.Pose.Table2shows the pose-robust face recognition (PRFR)performance.Clearly,the fusion of FRF and FAF, namely GTNN(LBP,AttNet)and GTNN(LeanFace,At-tNet),works much better than using FRF only,showing the complementary power of facial features to face recognition features.Not surprisingly,the performance of both LBP and LeanFace features drop greatly under extreme poses,as pose variation is a major factor challenging face recognition performance.In contrast,with GTNN-based fusion,FAF can be used to improve both classic(LBP)and deep(Lean-Face)FRF features effectively under this circumstance,for example,LBP(1.3%)vs GTNN(LBP,AttNet)(16.3%), LeanFace(72.0%)vs GTNN(LeanFace,AttNet)(78.3%) under yaw angel−90◦.It is noteworthy that despite their highly asymmetric strength,GTNN is able to effectively fuse FAF and FRF.This is elaborately studied in more detail in Sections5.2-5.3.Compared with state-of-the-art methods[14,59,11,58, 15]in terms of(-45◦,+45◦),LeanFace achieves better per-formance due to its big training data and the strong gener-alisation capacity of deep learning.In Table2,2D meth-ods[14,59,15]trained models using the MultiPIE images, therefore,they are difficult to generalise to images under poses which do not appear in MultiPIE database.3D meth-ods[11,58]highly depend on accurate2D landmarks for 3D-2D modellingfitting.However,it is hard to accurately detect such landmarks under larger poses,limiting the ap-plications of3D methods.Illumination and expression.Illumination-and expression-robust face recognition(IRFR and ERFR)are also challenging research topics.LBP is the most widely used handcrafted features for IRFR[2]and ERFR[33].To investigate the helpfulness of facial attributes,experiments of IRFR and ERFR are conducted using LBP and Lean-Face features.In Table3,GTNN(LBP,AttNet)signifi-cantly outperforms LBP,80.3%vs57.5%(IRFR),77.5% vs71.7%(ERFR),showing the great value of combining fa-cial attributes with hand-crafted features.Attributes such as the shape of eyebrows are illumination invariant and others, e.g.,gender,are expression invariant.In contrast,LeanFace feature is already very discriminative,saturating the perfor-mance on the test set.So there is little room for fusion of AttrNet to provide benefit.5.2.CASIA NIR-VIS2.0DatabaseThe CASIA NIR-VIS2.0face database[22]is the largest public face database across near-infrared(NIR)images and visible RGB(VIS)images.It is a typical cross-modality or heterogeneous face recognition problem because the gallery and probe images are from two different spectra.The。

THX resulted from George Lucas’ desire to reproduce the movie soundtrack as faithfully as possible both in the movie theater and in the home theater.THX engineers developed patented technologies to accurately translate the sound from a movie theater environment into the home,correcting the tonal and spatial errors that occur.When the THX mode of the SR8200 is on, three distinct THX technologies are automatically added:Re-Equalization-restores the correct tonal balance for watching a movie in a home environment.These sounds are otherwise mixed to be brighter for a large movie theater. Re-EQ compensates for this and prevents the soundtracks from being overly bright and harsh when played in a home theater.Timbre Matching-filters the information going to the surround speakers so they more closely match the tonal characteristics of the sound coming from the front speakers.This ensures seamless panning between the front and surround speakers.Adaptive Decorrelation-slightly changes one surround channel’s time and phase relationship with respect to the other surround channel.This expands the listening position and creates with only two surround speakers the same spacious surround experience as in a movie theater with multiple surround speakers.The Marantz SR8200 was required to pass a rigorous series of quality and performance tests, in addition to incorporating the technologies explained above, in order to be THX Ultra certified by Lucasfilm Ltd.THX Ultra requirements cover every aspect of performance including pre-amplifier and power amplifier performance and operation, and hundreds of other parameters in both the digital and analog domain.Movies which have been encoded in Dolby Digital, DTS, Dolby Pro Logic,stereo and Mono will all benefit from the THX mode when being viewed.The THX mode should only be activated when watching movies which were originally produced for a movie theater environment.THX need not be activated for music, movies made especially for TV,or shows such as sports programming, talk shows, etc.This is because they were originally mixed for a small room environment.“Lucasfilm ®” and “THX ®” are registered trademarks of Lucasfilm Ltd.Lucasfilm and THX are trademarks or registered trademarks of Lucasfilm Ltd. ©Lucasfilm Ltd. & TM.

While offering high compatibility with the conventional DTS Digital Surround format, DTS-ES Extended Surround greatly improves the 360-degree surround impression and space expression thanks to further expanded surround signals. This format has been used professionally in movie theaters since 1999.In addition to the 5.1 surround channels (FL, FR, C, SL, SR and LFE),DTS-ES Extended Surround also offers the SB (Surround Back)channel for surround playback with a total of 6.1 channels. DTS-ES Extended Surround includes two signal formats with different surround signal recording methods, as DTS-ES Discrete 6.1 and DTS-ES Matrix 6.1.]Dolby Digital identifies the use of Dolby Digital (AC-3) audio coding for such consumer formats as DVD and DTV. As with film sound, Dolby Digital can provide up to five full-range channels for left, center, and right screen channels, independent left and right surround channels,and a sixth ( ".1") channel for low-frequency effects.Dolby Surround Pro Logic II is an improved matrix decoding technology that provides better spatiality and directionality on Dolby Surround program material; provides a convincing three-dimensional soundfield on conventional stereo music recordings; and is ideally suited to bring the surround experience to automotive sound. While conventional surround programming is fully compatible with Dolby Surround Pro Logic II decoders, soundtracks will be able to be encoded specifically to take full advantage of Pro Logic II playback,including separate left and right surround channels. (Such material is also compatible with conventional Pro Logic decoders.)Circle Surround is backward compatible, such that surround playback is possible from any stereo or passive matrix-encoded material.Five full-bandwidth, discrete channels of information can be extracted from an enormous library of material not multi-channel encoded.These sources include many of today’s DVDs and laser discs, as well as most all video tape, VCD, Compact Disc, radio and television broadcast material.Circle Surround and the symbol are trademarks of SRS Labs, Inc.Circle Surround technology is incorporated under license from SRS Labs, Inc.45E N u MEMO (memory) buttonPress this button to enter the tuner preset memory numbers or station names.i TUNING UP / DOWN buttonsPress thses buttons to change the frequency or the preset number.o F/P (FREQUENCY / PRESET) buttonDuring reception of AM (MW/LW) or FM, you can change the function of the UP/DOWN buttons for scanning frequencies or selecting preset stations by pressing these buttons.!0T-MODE buttonPress this button to select the auto stereo mode or mono mode when the FM band is selected.The “AUTO ” indicator lights in the auto stereo mode.!1P.SCAN (preset scan) buttonThis button is used to scan preset stations automatically.When pressed, the tuner starts scanning the all preset stations.

稀疏对齐误差是指通过匹配稀疏点云的方式计算得到的场景中各个点的3D位置与真实位置之间的距离误差。
稠密对齐误差是指通过匹配稠密点云的方式计算得到的场景中各个点的3D位置与真实位置之间的距离误差。
这两个指标的计算方法都使用了平均重投影误差,即通过将重建结果投影回不同视图上,计算投影像素与对应视图观察到的像素之间的距离。
局部一致性主要用于评估局部细节的重建质量。
该指标包括两个子指标:立体结构误差和立体纹理误差。
立体结构误差是指通过对立体重建结果进行网格化,然后计算网格点之间的距离误差来评估场景结构的重建质量。
立体纹理误差是指通过对立体重建结果进行纹理映射,然后计算纹理像素之间的差异来评估场景纹理的重建质量。
这两个指标的计算方法都使用了平均距离误差,即通过计算对应网格点或纹理像素之间的距离来评估重建质量。
除了全局一致性和局部一致性之外,还可以使用其他一些指标来评估BlendMVS的重建质量。
例如,可以使用视角一致性指标来评估不同视角下观察到的场景的一致性程度。
该指标可以通过计算不同视角下观察到的重建结果之间的距离来评估。
另外,可以使用表面平滑度指标来评估重建结果的平滑程度,该指标可以通过计算网格表面上相邻点之间的平均距离来评估。
在使用BlendMVS进行立体重建时,可以使用以上的评估指标来评估不同步骤的结果质量,并通过对比不同算法或不同参数设置的结果来选择最优的重建结果。
同时,这些评估指标也可以用于指导算法改进和参数优化的过程,以提升立体重建的效果和质量。

堆叠自动编码器的稀疏表示方法(Ⅲ)
堆叠自动编码器的稀疏表示方法自动编码器是一种无监督学习的神经网络模型,它通过学习数据的内部表示来提取特征。
堆叠自动编码器则是由多个自动编码器叠加而成的深层网络模型。
在实际应用中,堆叠自动编码器通过学习更加抽象的特征表示,可以用于特征提取、降维和生成数据等多个领域。
在这篇文章中,我们将探讨堆叠自动编码器的稀疏表示方法,以及其在深度学习中的重要性。
稀疏表示是指在特征提取过程中,只有少数单元才被激活。
在堆叠自动编码器中,通过引入稀疏表示方法,可以让网络学习到更加鲁棒和有意义的特征。
稀疏表示可以有效地降低特征的冗余性,提高网络的泛化能力,使得网络能够更好地适应未见过的数据。
同时,稀疏表示还可以减少模型的计算复杂度,提高模型的训练效率。
因此,稀疏表示在深度学习中具有重要的意义。
在堆叠自动编码器中,稀疏表示的方法有很多种,其中最常用的方法之一是使用稀疏编码器。
稀疏编码器是一种特殊的自动编码器,它通过引入稀疏约束来学习稀疏表示。
在训练过程中,稀疏编码器会对每个隐藏单元引入稀疏性约束,使得只有少数隐藏单元被激活。
这样可以有效地提高特征的鲁棒性和泛化能力。
同时,稀疏编码器还可以使用稀疏性约束来降低特征的冗余性,提高特征的表达能力。
除了稀疏编码器,堆叠自动编码器还可以通过正则化方法来实现稀疏表示。
正则化是一种常用的方法,它可以通过引入额外的惩罚项来控制模型的复杂度。
在堆叠自动编码器中,可以通过引入L1正则化项来推动隐藏单元的稀疏性。
L1正则化项可以使得很多隐藏单元的激活值为0,从而实现稀疏表示。
通过正则化方法实现稀疏表示的堆叠自动编码器具有较好的鲁棒性和泛化能力,同时可以减少模型的计算复杂度,提高模型的训练效率。
另外,堆叠自动编码器还可以通过引入降噪自动编码器来实现稀疏表示。
降噪自动编码器是一种特殊的自动编码器,它可以通过在输入数据上添加噪声来训练模型。
在实际应用中,通过引入随机噪声,可以有效地降低模型对输入数据的敏感度,提高网络的鲁棒性。
视觉问答特征融合的方法
视觉问答特征融合的方法视觉问答(Visual Question Answering,VQA)是计算机视觉与自然语言处理交叉领域的一个重要研究方向。
在VQA任务中,特征融合是提升模型性能的关键技术。
本文将详细介绍几种视觉问答特征融合的方法。
一、基于早期融合的方法早期融合方法主要是在特征提取阶段将视觉特征和文本特征进行融合。
具体来说,可以先将图像通过卷积神经网络(CNN)提取出视觉特征,然后将问题和其对应的文本描述通过循环神经网络(RNN)提取出文本特征。
接下来,将两种特征在早期进行拼接,输入到融合层进行进一步处理。
优点:简单易实现,计算量较小。
缺点:可能无法充分挖掘视觉和文本特征之间的关联。
二、基于注意力机制的方法注意力机制可以使模型关注到输入数据中最重要的部分。
在视觉问答任务中,通过引入注意力机制,可以让模型自动学习到图像和问题中与答案相关的关键信息。
具体方法:将视觉特征和文本特征进行交互,利用注意力机制为每种特征分配权重,然后加权求和得到融合特征。
优点:能够自适应地关注到与问题最相关的图像区域和文本信息。
缺点:计算量相对较大,调参复杂。
三、基于图神经网络的方法图神经网络(Graph Neural Networks,GNNs)可以有效地对结构化数据进行建模。
在视觉问答任务中,可以将图像中的物体和问题中的单词作为图的节点,利用图神经网络学习节点之间的关系。
具体方法:将视觉特征和文本特征编码为图的节点,通过图神经网络学习节点之间的相互作用,最终得到融合特征。
优点:能够捕捉到视觉和文本特征之间的复杂关系。
缺点:计算复杂度较高,对硬件要求较高。
四、基于多模态融合的方法多模态融合方法旨在同时利用多种模态的特征,提高视觉问答的性能。
这类方法通常结合了早期融合、注意力机制和图神经网络等多种融合技术。
具体方法:先对视觉特征和文本特征进行预处理,然后通过多模态融合模块进行特征交互和融合,最后输入到分类器进行答案预测。
《2024年基于多模态注意力机制的视觉问答研究》范文

二、研究背景及意义视觉问答是一种将图像与自然语言相结合的技术,旨在通过计算机理解图像内容并回答相关问题。
随着互联网和多媒体技术的快速发展,视觉问答在智能教育、智能客服、智能安防等领域具有广泛的应用前景。
多模态注意力机制作为一种融合图像与文本信息的有效方法,可以有效地提升视觉问答系统的准确率和效率。
因此,本文将研究基于多模态注意力机制的视觉问答系统,对于提高人工智能在图像理解与自然语言处理方面的能力具有重要意义。
三、相关工作近年来,多模态技术得到了广泛的研究和应用。
在视觉问答领域,研究者们提出了许多基于深度学习的模型和方法,如基于循环神经网络(RNN)的模型、基于卷积神经网络(CNN)的模型以及基于注意力机制的模型等。
其中,多模态注意力机制通过将图像和文本信息相互关联,提高了模型的表达能力。
然而,现有的多模态注意力机制在处理复杂问题时仍存在一定局限性,如无法准确理解图像上下文信息和回答多层次的问题等。
因此,本文提出了一种新的基于多模态注意力机制的视觉问答模型。

深度学习中的正则化方法
深度学习中的正则化方法深度学习作为人工智能领域的重要分支,已经取得了巨大的突破和应用。
然而,深度学习模型往往具有大量的参数和复杂的结构,容易出现过拟合的问题。
为了解决这个问题,研究者们提出了各种正则化方法,有效地提高了深度学习模型的泛化能力。
本文将介绍几种主要的正则化方法,并探讨其原理和应用。
一、L1正则化(L1 Regularization)L1正则化是一种常用的特征选择方法,它通过在损失函数中引入参数的绝对值之和来限制模型的复杂度。
具体来说,对于深度学习模型中的每个权重参数w,L1正则化的目标是最小化损失函数与λ乘以|w|的和。
其中,λ是一个正则化参数,用来平衡训练误差和正则化项的重要性。
L1正则化的优点是可以产生稀疏的权重模型,使得模型更加简洁和可解释性,但同时也容易产生不可导的点,对于一些复杂的深度学习模型应用有一定的限制。
二、L2正则化(L2 Regularization)与L1正则化不同,L2正则化通过在损失函数中引入参数的平方和来平衡模型的复杂度。
具体来说,对于深度学习模型中的每个权重参数w,L2正则化的目标是最小化损失函数与λ乘以|w|^2的和。
与L1正则化相比,L2正则化不会产生稀疏的权重模型,但能够减小权重的幅度,使得模型更加平滑和鲁棒。
L2正则化也常被称为权重衰减(Weight Decay),通过减小权重的大小来控制模型的复杂度。
三、Dropout正则化Dropout正则化是一种广泛应用于深度学习模型的正则化方法,通过在训练过程中随机将部分神经元的输出置为0来减小模型的复杂度。
具体来说,每个神经元的输出被设置为0的概率为p,而被保留的概率为1-p。
这样做的好处是能够迫使网络学习到多个不同的子网络,从而提高模型的泛化能力。
在测试模型时,通常会将所有神经元的输出乘以p来保持一致性。
四、Batch NormalizationBatch Normalization是一种通过对每一层的输入进行归一化处理来加速训练和提高模型的泛化能力的方法。

深度学习中的正则化技术
正则化是深度学习中一种重要的技术,主要用于防止过拟合,增强模型的泛化能力。
在深度学习中,正则化通过在损失函数上添加一个惩罚项,来约束模型的复杂度,使得模型在训练过程中更加注重整体的性能,而不是仅仅关注某一层的输出结果。
以下是一些常见深度学习中正则化的方法:1. L1 正则化:L1 正则化是通过在损失函数上添加L1 正则项来约束模型中参数的数量。
这种方法有助于防止过拟合,同时增强模型的泛化能力。
当模型参数较多时,L1 正则化会增加模型的复杂度,使得模型更加鲁棒,不易受到噪声数据的影响。
2. L2 正则化:L2 正则化与L1 正则化类似,也是在损失函数上添加L2 正则项来约束模型中参数的范数。
这种方法有助于防止模型过拟合,同时也能增强模型的泛化能力。
与L1 正则化相比,L2 正则化对模型参数的约束更加宽松,因此更适合于处理大规模数据集。
3. Dropout:Dropout 是一种特殊的正则化技术,它通过在训练过程中有放回地随机丢弃一部分神经元或神经网络层,来防止过拟合。
在每个训练批次中,都随机选择一部分神经元或神经网络层进行训练和测试,这样可以使得模型更加鲁棒,不易受到个别样本或特征的影响。
4. Batch Normalization(批量标准化):Batch Normalization 是另一种正则化技术,它通过对输入数据进行归一化和标准化处理,来增强模型的稳定性。
这种方法可以加快模型的收敛速度,提高模型的性能和泛化能力。
5. Weight decay(权重衰减):权重衰减是一种简单有效的正则化方法,它通过在训练过程中添加权重衰减项来惩罚模型中某些权重较大的参数。
这种方法有助于减少过拟合的风险,同时也能增强模型的泛化能力。
在实际应用中,通常将多种正则化方法结合起来使用,以提高模型的性能和泛化能力。
例如,可以使用L1 和L2 正则化相结合的方法来约束模型中参数的数量和范数;也可以使用Dropout 和Batch Normalization 相结合的方法来增强模型的鲁棒性和稳定性。
深度学习中的特征融合与表示方法(二)
深度学习中的特征融合与表示方法深度学习是一种基于神经网络的机器学习方法,其在各个领域有着广泛的应用。
在深度学习的算法模型中,特征融合与表示方法是非常关键的环节。
在这篇文章中,我们将探讨深度学习中的特征融合与表示方法,并对其进行深入的分析和讨论。
一、特征融合的概念与意义在深度学习过程中,特征融合是指将来自不同源的特征信息进行有效的整合,以提高模型的性能和泛化能力。
特征融合的意义在于,通过融合多个来源的特征,可以综合利用各种信息,使得模型能够更好地理解数据的内在结构和规律。
特征融合的方式多种多样,常见的方法包括加权融合、串联融合和并联融合等。
加权融合是将不同源的特征进行加权求和,使得不同特征的重要性得以体现。
串联融合是将不同特征按照一定的规则进行串联,以增加特征的维度和多样性。
并联融合是将不同特征进行并联,以获得特征的多样性和丰富性。
二、特征融合方法的应用场景特征融合方法广泛应用于计算机视觉、自然语言处理和推荐系统等领域。
在计算机视觉中,特征融合可以将不同尺度和来源的图像特征进行有效的整合,以提高图像处理和识别的准确性。
在自然语言处理中,特征融合可以将不同来源的文本特征进行有效的整合,以提高文本分类和语义分析的性能。
在推荐系统中,特征融合可以将用户行为信息和商品属性信息进行融合,以提高个性化推荐的效果。
三、特征表示方法的选择与优化特征表示方法是用来对原始数据进行高维映射的过程。
合理选择和优化特征表示方法,可以提高深度学习模型的性能和泛化能力。
常见的特征表示方法包括主成分分析(PCA)、线性判别分析(LDA)和稀疏编码等。
主成分分析通过线性变换将原始特征映射到低维度的子空间中,以减少特征的冗余和维度。
线性判别分析通过最大化类间的差异和最小化类内的差异,将原始特征映射到低维度的子空间中,以提高分类的准确性。
稀疏编码是一种基于字典的特征表示方法,通过最小化特征的稀疏性来获得更加紧凑和有表达力的表示。
除了传统的特征表示方法,近年来,深度学习方法也逐渐应用于特征表示的优化。
深度强化学习中的状态空间设计方法(四)
深度强化学习(Deep Reinforcement Learning,DRL)是一种结合了深度学习和强化学习的新兴技术,近年来在多个领域取得了显著的成果。
其中,状态空间设计是深度强化学习中至关重要的一环,它直接影响着智能体对环境的理解和行为决策过程。
本文将讨论深度强化学习中的状态空间设计方法,以及其在实际应用中的重要性和挑战。
深度强化学习中的状态空间设计方法是指如何将环境的状态信息表示为适合深度神经网络处理的形式。
状态空间的设计对智能体学习和决策的效率和性能有着直接的影响。
一个好的状态空间设计应当能够准确地表达环境的特征,同时又能够尽可能地减少状态空间的维度,以便提高学习的效率和泛化能力。
在深度强化学习中,状态空间的设计方法通常可以分为两类:基于特征提取和基于卷积神经网络。
基于特征提取的方法通常包括手动设计特征和自动特征提取两种方式。
手动设计特征是指根据对环境的理解和经验,人工地提取出对智能体学习和决策有帮助的特征,然后输入到深度神经网络中进行学习。
自动特征提取则是通过深度神经网络自动地学习和提取环境的特征表示。
而基于卷积神经网络的方法则是直接将环境的原始状态信息(如图像)输入到卷积神经网络中进行端到端的学习。
在实际应用中,状态空间的设计方法需要根据具体的环境和任务来选择。
对于一些简单的环境和任务,手动设计特征可能会比较有效,因为通过人工的方式可以更好地理解环境和任务的特点,提取出更加有用的特征。
但是对于一些复杂的环境和任务,自动特征提取和卷积神经网络往往能够取得更好的效果,因为它们可以更好地适应环境和任务的复杂性,自动地学习和提取出更加有效的特征表示。
除了选择合适的状态空间设计方法,状态空间的维度和表示也是深度强化学习中需要考虑的重要问题。
通常来说,状态空间的维度越高,学习和决策的复杂度也就越高,同时学习的效率也会受到影响。
因此,对于高维状态空间的环境和任务,如何合理地降低状态空间的维度成为了一个挑战。

在实际应用中,可以将不同类型的特征输入到堆叠自动编码器中,让模型自动学习如何进行特征融合。
在训练过程中,可以使用反向传播算法来优化模型参数,使得模型能够更好地学习到数据的特征表示。
四、堆叠自动编码器的训练技巧在使用堆叠自动编码器进行特征融合时,有一些训练技巧是需要注意的。
首先,需要对输入数据进行预处理,确保数据是归一化的,并且不同特征之间的分布差异不会太大。
其次,需要选择合适的模型结构和超参数,这些参数会直接影响到模型的训练效果。
最后,需要进行合理的训练策略,如使用适当的正则化方法和学习率调度策略,以避免模型的过拟合和训练不稳定。
五、堆叠自动编码器的应用场景堆叠自动编码器在特征融合中有着广泛的应用场景。

Mixed Depth Representations for Dialog ProcessingSusan W.McRoy(mcroy@) Department of EECSUniversity of Wisconsin–Milwaukee Milwaukee,WI53201Syed S.Ali(syali@)Department of Mathematical SciencesUniversity of Wisconsin–MilwaukeeMilwaukee,WI53201Susan M.Haller(haller@)CS&E DepartmentUniversity of Wisconsin–ParksideKenosha,WI53141AbstractWe describe our work on developing a general purpose tutoring system that will allow students to practice their decision-making skills in a number of domains.The tutoring system,B2,supports mixed-initiative natural language interaction.The natural language processing and knowledge representation components are also gen-eral purpose—which leads to a tradeoffbetween the limitations of superficial processing and syntactic rep-resentations and the difficulty of deeper methods and conceptual representations.Our solution is to use a mixed-depth representation,one that encodes syntactic and conceptual information in the same structure.Asa result,we can use the same representation framework to produce a detailed representation of requests(which tend to be well-specified)and to produce a partial repre-sentation of questions(which tend to require more infer-ence about the context).Moreover,the representations use the same knowledge representation framework thatis used to reason about discourse processing and domain information—so that the system can reason with(and about)the utterances,if necessary.IntroductionBuilding decision support systems involves the collection and representation of a large amount of knowledge.It also involves providing mechanisms for reasoning over this knowledge efficiently.To make the best use of these efforts,our project group,which involves researchers at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee,the University of Wisconsin-Parkside,and the Medical College of Wiscon-sin,is working on a system to redeploy our decision sup-port tools to build new systems for educating students. Our aim is to give students an opportunity to practice their decision making skills by considering a number of scenarios that differ from each other in a controlled man-ner.We also wish to give students the opportunity to ask the system to explain what factors most influenced the system.Another important goal of this work is to develop tools that will cover a number of different domains,includ-ing medical diagnosis,life skills such as good nutrition and budgeting,and student success in their degree pro-gram.Thus,the graphical parts of the system interface are fairly generic.Most interaction between the student and the system uses natural language.This approach allows the system to explain fairly sophisticated topics (such as why a positive computed tomography,CT,scan supports the diagnosis of gallstones)and to tailor the interaction to the user’s concerns and apparent level of understanding.This approach also gives the student a great deal offlexibility in how she phrases her questions or requests.Students’utterances may be short and am-biguous,requiring extensive reasoning about the domain or the discourse model to fully resolve.However,full dis-ambiguation is rarely necessary.Our solution is to use a mixed-depth representation.A mixed-depth representation is one that may be shal-low or deep in different places,depending on what was known or needed at the time the representation was cre-ated(Hirst and Ryan,1992).Moreover,“shallow”and “deep”are a matter of degree.Shallow representations can be a surface syntactic structure,or it can be the text itself(as a string of characters).Deep represen-tations might be a conventionalfirst-order(or higher-order)AI knowledge representation,taking into account such aspects of language understanding as lexical disam-biguation,marking case relations,attachment of modi-fiers of uncertain placement,reference resolution,quanti-fier scoping,and distinguishing extensional,intensional, generic,and descriptive noun phrases.Unlike quasi-logical form,which is used primarily for storage of in-formation,mixed-depth representations are well-formed propositions,subject to logical inference.Disambigua-tion,when it occurs,is done by reasoning.Other systems that represent sentence meaning at multiple levels(e.g.,syntactic,semantic,and pragmatic) build separate complete structures for each level.So,for example,when processing an utterance,a parser must either defer all semantic processing or resolve semantic ambiguities without the full knowledge necessary to do so correctly.The mixed-depth approach opportunisti-cally builds semantic constituent structures as soon as enough information is available.(Minimally,this will be information about the syntax of the utterance but it may include some semantic information about proper-ties of discourse objects introduced by the utterance). This allows us to do as much semantic interpretation as possible,as soon as possible.In our work,we use a parser with a linguisticallybased grammar to process the student’s typed inputs and produce a structure that captures syntactic mark-ing and bracketing,along with some conceptual informa-tion.Encoding decisions that require reasoning about the domain or about the discourse context are left to the knowledge representation and discourse processing components,respectively.The primary benefits of this approach are:Generality The representation language and concep-tual structures that are built during the initial parsing phase are not specific to any one domain. Expressiveness The representation language is very expressive;our grammar covers a wide variety of syn-tactic constructions including fragments and sentences with embedded sentences(e.g.relative clauses and clause complements).For example,students can re-quest a diagnostic exercise using a variety of forms including Give me a story problem,I want you to de-scribe a case for me.,Tell me a story.,A story please. or Another case.Uniformity The structures that are built by the parser are all subject to inference;they use the same con-ceptual framework that is used by the other compo-nents,including discourse processing,planning,and plan recognition.For example,students can request a diagnostic exercise by mentioning any step of the tutoring plan including Tell me a story.or Quiz me. or by mentioning the overall tutoring plan with Tutor me.This paper gives an overview of our tutoring system, B2.It describes the natural language and knowledge rep-resentation components of B2,and our approach to the representation of questions and requests.The domain that we have developed most thoroughly helps medical students learn a statistical model for medical diagnosis. Many of the examples will be taken from this domain.The Need for A Discourse ModelThefirst prototype of our current system is Banter(Had-dawy et al.,1996).Banter is a tutoring shell that presents predefined story problems and short-answer questions on the basis of stored information about a par-ticular medical situation,such as a patient who sees her doctor complaining of abdominal pains.This informa-tion comprises statistical relations among known aspects of a patient’s medical history,findings from physical ex-aminations of the patient,results of previous diagnostic tests,and the different candidate diseases.The infor-mation is represented as a Bayesian belief network.The system also includes a facility for explaining the system’s reasoning to the student,The Banter shell has been de-signed to be general enough to be used with any network having nodes of hypotheses,observations,and diagnostic procedures.A preliminary(and informal)user study of the Banter system with students at the Medical College of Wiscon-sin revealed two important facts:First,students like the idea of being able to set up hypothetical cases and witness how different actions might(or might not!)af-fect the statistical likelihood of a candidate diagnosis. Second,students do not like,and will not use,a sys-tem that overwhelms them with irrelevant information or that risks misleading them because it answers questions more narrowly than a teacher would.Students want to ask brief,context-dependent questions,such as“Why CT?”or“What about ultrasound?”and they prefer to give brief,context-dependent responses.Moreover,stu-dents like explanations that are tailored to their needs—sometimes only a single word answer,sometimes the an-swer along with its justification.A discourse model is necessary to deal with this.The B2ArchitectureThe B2system performs three distinct,but interrelated, tasks that rely on a variety of information sources.The tasks are:•Managing the interaction between the user and B2, including the interpretation of context-dependent ut-terances.•Reasoning about the domain,for example,the relation between components of a medical case history and dis-eases that might occur.•Meta-reasoning about the Bayesian reasoner and its conclusions,including an ability to explain the con-clusions by identifying the factors that were most sig-nificant.The B2system consists of seven components(see Fig-ure1).In the diagram,solid,directed arrows indicate the direction of informationflow between components. The system gets the user’s input using a graphical user interface that supports both natural language interac-tion and mouse inputs.The Parser component of the Parser/Generator performs thefirst level of processing on the user input using its grammar and the domain information from the Knowledge Representation Com-ponent.The Parser interprets the user’s inputs to form propositional representations of surface-level utterances for the Discourse Analyzer.The Generator produces natural language outputs from the text messages(propo-sitional descriptions of text)that it receives from the Discourse Planner.The system as a whole is controlled by a module called the Discourse Analyzer.The Discourse Analyzer deter-mines an appropriate response to the user’s actions on the basis of a model of the discourse and a model of theGUICharacter StreamGui ActionsParser/GeneratorDiscourse PlannerDiscourse AnalyzerText Plan ActsDiscourse KR AccessCharacter StreamDiscourse Action KR Updates Text Plan OperatorsDomain Knowledge AccessKnowledge Representation ComponentBayesian NetworkMediatorKR UpdatesBayesian Net ProbabilitiesQueries to Bayesian NetDomain KnowledgeAccessStreamCharacter Information RequestsBayesian NetText MessagesKnowledge Representation (KR)of User Surface ActsFigure 1:The B2architecturedomain,stored in the knowledge representation compo-nent.The Analyzer invokes the Discourse Planner to se-lect the content of the response and to structure it.The Analyzer relies on a component called the Mediator to interact with the Bayesian network processor.This Me-diator processes domain level information,such as rank-ing the effectiveness of alternative diagnostic tests.All phases of this process are recorded in the knowledge rep-resentation component,resulting in a complete history of the discourse.Thus,the knowledge representation component serves as a central “blackboard”for all other components.Together these seven components handle the three tasks mentioned above.They interact by addressing and handling queries to each other.However,the knowledge underlying these queries and the knowledge needed to generate a response can come from a variety of knowl-edge sources.Translating between knowledge sources is not an effective solution.The information sources that B2uses include:•Linguistic knowledge —knowledge about the mean-ings of utterances and plans for expressing meanings as text.•Discourse knowledge —knowledge about the inten-tional,social,and rhetorical relationships that link utterances.•Domain knowledge —factual knowledge of the medi-cal domain and the medical case that is under consid-eration.•Pedagogy —knowledge about the tutoring task.•Decision-support —knowledge about the statistical model and how to interpret the information that is derivable from the model.In B2,the interaction between the tasks is possible be-cause the information for all knowledge sources is rep-resented in a uniform framework.The knowledge rep-resentation component serves as a central “blackboard”for all other components.The Knowledge RepresentationBlackboardB2represents both domain knowledge and discourse knowledge in a uniform framework as a propositional se-mantic network.This allows the system to reason with (and about)utterances if necessary.A propositional semantic network is a framework for representing the concepts of a cognitive agent who is ca-pable of using language (hence the term semantic ).The information is represented as a graph composed of nodes and labeled directed arcs.In a propositional semantic network,the propositions are represented by the nodes,rather than the arcs;arcs represent only non-conceptual binary relations between nodes.The particular sys-tems that are being used for B2are SNePS and ANA-LOG (Ali,1994a;Ali,1994b;Shapiro and Group,1992)which provide facilities for building and finding nodes as well as for reasoning and truth-maintenance.These systems satisfy the following additional constraints:•Each node represents a unique concept;•Each concept represented in the network is represented by a unique node;•The knowledge represented about each concept is rep-resented by the structure of the entire network con-nected to the node that represents that concept.These constraints allow efficient inference when process-ing natural language.For example,such networks can represent complex descriptions (common in the medical domain),and can support the resolution of ellipsis and anaphora,as well as general reasoning tasks such as sub-sumption (Ali,1994a;Ali,1994b;Maida and Shapiro,1982;Shapiro and Rapaport,1987;Shapiro and Rapa-port,1992).!

characterize a knowledge representation as uni-form when it allows the representation of different kindsof knowledge in the same knowledge base using the sameinference processes.The knowledge representation com-ponent of B2is uniform because it provides a representa-tion of the discourse knowledge,domain knowledge,andprobabilistic knowledge(from the Bayesian net).Thissupports intertask communication and cooperation forinteractive processing of tutorial dialogs.The rule in Figure2is a good example of how theuniform representation of information in the semanticnetwork allows us to relate domain information(a med-ical case)to discourse planning information(a plan todescribe it).This network represents a text plan for de-scribing a medical case to the user.Text plans are rep-resented as rules in the knowledge representation.Rulesare general statements about objects in the domain;theyare represented by using case frames1that have FORALLor EXISTS arcs to nodes that represent variables that arebound by these quantifier arcs.In Figure2,node M13is a rule with three universally quantified variables(atthe end of the FORALL arcs),an antecedent(at the endof the ANT arc),and a consequent(at the end of the CQarc).This means that if an instance of the antecedentis believed,then a suitably instantiated instance of theconsequent is believed.Node P1represents the conceptthat something is a member of the class case and P2represents the concept that the case concept has a casenumber and case information.For more details aboutthe knowledge representation,see(McRoy et al.,1997).2HIDA stands for radio-nuclide hepatobilary imaging,adiagonistic test.ATTITUDEFORMUTTERANCEB3M5IMPERactionCONTENTM4AGENTACTB1OBJECTLEX PRONOUN"hearer"ACTION

JAVA 1.1programming lan-guage.It can be run using a network browser,such as Netscape.The interface that the user sees communicates with a server-side program that initiates a LISP process.SummaryThe goal of the B2project is to give students an oppor-tunity to practice their decision making skills where the primary modality of interaction is English.We give stu-dents the opportunity to ask the system to explain what factors were most influential to its decision and why.The natural language processing and knowledge rep-resentation components of B2are general purpose.It builds a five-level model of the discourse,that repre-sents what was literally said,what was meant,and how each utterance and its interpretation relates to previ-ous ones.This is necessary because students’utterances may be short and ambiguous,requiring extensive rea-soning about the domain or the discourse model to fully resolve.We have shown how our mixed-depth repre-sentations encode syntactic and conceptual information in the same structure.This allows us to defer any ex-tensive reasoning until needed,rather than when pars-ing.We use the same representation framework to pro-duce a detailed representation of requests and to pro-duce a representation of questions.The representations use the same knowledge representation framework that is used to reason about discourse processing and domain information—so that the system can reason with (and about)the utterances.AcknowledgementsThis work was supported by the National Science Foun-dation,under grants IRI-9701617and IRI-9523666and by a
