Sensor, Signal, and Imaging Informatics in 2017.
ObjectiveāTo summarize significant contributions to sensor, signal, and imaging informatics literature published in 2017.MethodsāPubMedĀ® and Web of ScienceĀ® were searched to identify the scientific publications published in 2017 that addressed sensors, signals, and imaging in medical informatics. Fifteen papers were selected by consensus as candidate best papers. Each candidate article was reviewed by section editors and at least two other external reviewers. The final selection of the four best papers was conducted by the editorial board of the International Medical Informatics Association (IMIA) Yearbook.ResultsāThe selected papers of 2017 demonstrate the important scientific advances in management and analysis of sensor, signal, and imaging information.ConclusionThe growth of signal and imaging data and the increasing power of machine learning techniques have engendered new opportunities for research in medical informatics. This synopsis highlights cutting-edge contributions to the science of Sensor, Signal, and Imaging Informatics
Graph Element Networks: adaptive, structured computation and memory
We explore the use of graph neural networks (GNNs) to model spatial processes
in which there is no a priori graphical structure. Similar to finite element
analysis, we assign nodes of a GNN to spatial locations and use a computational
process defined on the graph to model the relationship between an initial
function defined over a space and a resulting function in the same space. We
use GNNs as a computational substrate, and show that the locations of the nodes
in space as well as their connectivity can be optimized to focus on the most
complex parts of the space. Moreover, this representational strategy allows the
learned input-output relationship to generalize over the size of the underlying
space and run the same model at different levels of precision, trading
computation for accuracy. We demonstrate this method on a traditional PDE
problem, a physical prediction problem from robotics, and learning to predict
scene images from novel viewpoints.Comment: Accepted to ICML 201
Multimodal Grounding for Language Processing
This survey discusses how recent developments in multimodal processing
facilitate conceptual grounding of language. We categorize the information flow
in multimodal processing with respect to cognitive models of human information
processing and analyze different methods for combining multimodal
representations. Based on this methodological inventory, we discuss the benefit
of multimodal grounding for a variety of language processing tasks and the
challenges that arise. We particularly focus on multimodal grounding of verbs
which play a crucial role for the compositional power of language.Comment: The paper has been published in the Proceedings of the 27 Conference
of Computational Linguistics. Please refer to this version for citations:
