2024/07/17

SafePathNet introduces a novel approach that models the distribution of future trajectories for both the self-driving vehicle and other road agents using a unified neural network architecture. By incorporating a 'Mixture of Experts' framework, the model can learn diverse driving strategies and prioritize safety in real-time decision-making. The use of Transformer networks and imitation learning further enhances the model's ability to handle complex and unpredictable driving scenarios.

2024/07/07

Don't be confused by the title, diffusion here is not referring to diffusion as we use it today in context of image generation process, but more about modelling diffusive processes (like virus spread) This paper answers the question about 'how much data do we need, before we can figure out the final affected value' turns out this is a lot more thant people expect.

2024/07/07

The paper demonstrates the successful application of reinforcement learning to improve the efficiency of driver-rider matching in ride-sharing platforms. The use of online RL allows for real-time adaptation, resulting in decreased wait times for riders, increased earnings for drivers, and overall higher user satisfaction. The research paves the way for more intelligent systems in the ride-sharing industry, with potential for further optimization and expansion into various other aspects of the

Models tell you what to discard

ZeRO Memory Optimizations: Toward Training Trillion...

Byte Sized Breakthroughs ·

2024/07/07

The paper introduces ZeRO, a novel approach to optimize memory usage when training massive language models. ZeRO-DP and ZeRO-R components effectively reduce memory redundancy and allow for training models with up to 170 billion parameters efficiently. The technique shows superlinear scalability, user-friendly implementation, and has the potential to democratize large model training in AI research.

Zero Bubble Pipeline Parallelism

Byte Sized Breakthroughs ·

2024/07/07

The paper introduces a deep hedging approach using neural networks to optimize hedging strategies for derivatives in imperfect markets. The key takeaway is the development of the 'no-transaction band network' to address action dependence and improve efficiency in hedging, showcasing superior performance compared to traditional methods in terms of expected utility and price efficiency, and faster training. Future research focuses on addressing limitations such as non-linear transaction costs and
