Adaptive Automated Machine Learning
The ever-growing demand for machine learning has led to the development of automated machine learning (AutoML) systems that can be used off the shelf by non-experts. Further, the demand for ML applications with high predictive performance exceeds the number of machine learning experts and makes the development of AutoML systems necessary. Automated Machine Learning tackles the problem of finding machine learning models with high predictive performance. Existing approaches incorporating deep learning techniques assume that all data is available at the beginning of the training process (offline learning). They configure and optimise a pipeline of preprocessing, feature engineering, and model selection by choosing suitable hyperparameters in each model pipeline step. Furthermore, they assume that the user is fully aware of the choice and, thus, the consequences of the underlying metric (such as precision, recall, or F1-measure). By variation of this metric, the search for suitable configurations and thus the adaptation of algorithms can be tailored to the user’s needs. With the creation of a vast amount of data from all kinds of sources every day, our capability to process and understand these data sets in a single batch is no longer viable. By training machine learning models incrementally (i.ex. online learning), the flood of data can be processed sequentially within data streams. However, if one assumes an online learning scenario, where an AutoML instance executes on evolving data streams, the question of the best model and its configuration remains open.
In this work, we address the adaptation of AutoML in an offline learning scenario toward a certain utility an end-user might pursue as well as the adaptation of AutoML towards evolving data streams in an online learning scenario with three main contributions:
1. We propose a System that allows the adaptation of AutoML and the search for neural architectures towards a particular utility an end-user might pursue.
2. We introduce an online deep learning framework that fosters the research of deep learning models under the online learning assumption and enables the automated search for neural architectures.
3. We introduce an online AutoML framework that allows the incremental adaptation of ML models.
We evaluate the contributions individually, in accordance with predefined requirements and to state-of-the- art evaluation setups. The outcomes lead us to conclude that (i) AutoML, as well as systems for neural architecture search, can be steered towards individual utilities by learning a designated ranking model from pairwise preferences and using the latter as the target function for the offline learning scenario; (ii) architectual small neural networks are in general suitable assuming an online learning scenario; (iii) the configuration of machine learning pipelines can be automatically be adapted to ever-evolving data streams and lead to better performances
Proceedings of the VIIth GSCP International Conference
The 7th International Conference of the Gruppo di Studi sulla Comunicazione Parlata, dedicated to the memory of Claire Blanche-Benveniste, chose as its main theme Speech and Corpora. The wide international origin of the 235 authors from 21 countries and 95 institutions led to papers on many different languages. The 89 papers of this volume reflect the themes of the conference: spoken corpora compilation and annotation, with the technological connected fields; the relation between prosody and pragmatics; speech pathologies; and different papers on phonetics, speech and linguistic analysis, pragmatics and sociolinguistics. Many papers are also dedicated to speech and second language studies. The online publication with FUP allows direct access to sound and video linked to papers (when downloaded)
Ciência de dados na era da agricultura digital: anais.
Estes anais contêm o texto completo dos trabalhos apresentados no XI Congresso Brasileiro de Agroinformática (SBIAgro 2017), o qual foi promovido pela Embrapa Informática Agropecuária e pela Faculdade de Engenharia Agrícola, Instituto de Computação e pelo Centro de Pesquisas Meteorológicas e Climáticas Aplicadas à Agricultura da Universidade Estadual de Campinas (Unicamp). Esta edição do evento foi realizada no Centro de Convenções e na Casa do Lago da Unicamp, localizados na cidade de Campinas (SP). O propósito do evento foi o de reunir pesquisadores, professores, estudantes, empresários e funcionários de empresas para discutir o tema da informática aplicada à agricultura, além de promover um ambiente propício para o surgimento de novos relacionamentos, projetos e negócios.Organizadores: Jayme Garcia Arnal Barbedo, Maria Fernanda Moura, Luciana Alvim Santos Romani, Thiago Teixeira Santos, Débora Pignatari Drucker.

Formaciones imaginarias del diseñador gráfico en el discurso del campo académico.
En este trabajo se describe un proyecto de tesis doctoral en el que se analiza el discurso sobre el diseñador gráfico. Se parte del supuesto de que existe una tricotomía de su perfil: 1) el campo profesional, 2) el campo educativo y, 3) el campo académico. Proponemos que dicha tricotomía permite la identificación de imaginarios sobre el tema, y no solo eso, sino que también aporta elementos que conforman la identidad (Bauman, 2002) de un diseñador gráfico. La pregunta de investigación es ¿Cuál
es la identidad discursiva del diseñador gráfico en el campo académico? La investigación descrita es de tipo cualitativo y deductivo; para la construcción la identidad discursiva (Van Dijk, T; 2008) del diseñador gráfico, se toman en cuenta diversas publicaciones: principalmente investigaciones y breves artículos difundidos en comunidades/foros de reflexión y debate en torno a la temática, además de memorias de congresos y libros. En apoyo al desarrollo del proyecto se ha diseñado un Laboratorio de Intervención en el Diseño, cuyos objetivos son impulsar el desarrollo social y cultural de los diseñadores gráficos por medio de la investigación, educación continua, producción y vinculación. En un primer acercamiento a las formaciones imaginarias (Pêcheux, 1978) sobre la identidad del diseñador gráfico se centran en el grado de erudición para la ejecución de su trabajo, en la cultura que demuestran y en la autonomía con la que producen
