Exploring Quantum Neural Networks

Quantum Neural Network for classification. Here we depict a sample quantum neural network, where in contrast to hidden layers in classical deep neural networks, the boxes represent entangling actions, or “quantum gates”, on qubits. In a superconducting qubit setup this could be enacted through a microwave control pulse corresponding to each box.

Barren Plateaus in Quantum Neural Network Training Landscapesoften involves randomizationdifficulties

QNN vanishing gradient: concentration of measure in high dimensional spaces. In very high dimensional spaces, such as those explored by quantum computers, the vast majority of states counterintuitively sit near the equator of the hypersphere (left). This means that any smooth function on this space will tend to take a value very close to its mean with overwhelming probability when selected at random (right).

On the top right is an illustration of our deep learning model’s predicted scores (“P” = proliferative, the most severe form of DR). On the bottom right is the set of grades given by physicians without assistance (“Unassisted”) and those who saw the model’s predictions (“Grades Only”).

On the left is a retinal fundus image graded as having moderate DR (“Mo”) by an adjudication panel of ophthalmologists (ground truth). On the top right is an illustration of the predicted scores (“N” = no DR, “Mi” = Mild DR, “Mo” = Moderate DR) from the model.

Grasp2Vec: Learning Object Representations from Self-Supervised Grasping

Tuesday, December 11, 2018

our prior collaboration with X RoboticsConstructing a Perceptual Reward Functionreinforcement learningdiverse grasping skills from scratchbutton that supplies rewards directly to a robot when it is pushedperceptual understandingDo these objects match?

On the left, the gripper is holding the brush and there are some objects (yellow cup, blue plastic block) in the background. On the right, the gripper is holding the yellow cup and the brush is in the background. If the left image was the desired outcome, a good reward function should “understand” that the two images above correspond to different objects.

Left: Objects before the grasp. Center: Objects after the grasp. Right: The Grasped object.

1. Object Similaritycosine distance

2. Localizing Target Objects

Using Grasp2Vec embeddings to localize objects in a scene. The image on the top left shows the objects in the bin. On the bottom left is the query object we wish to grasp. By taking the dot product of the query object vector with the spatial features of the scene image, we get a per-pixel “activation map” (top right image) of how similar that region of the image is to the query. This response map can be used to approach the object for grasping.

Providing Gender-Specific Translations in Google Translate

Monday, December 10, 2018

Posted by Melvin Johnson, Senior Software Engineer, Google TranslateGoogle Translateend-to-end neural network-based systemHe/she is a doctorHe/she is a nursewe announced

Gender-specific translations on the Google Translate website.

Detecting Gender-Neutral Queriesmorphologically complexO, OnaBiliyor mu?Does she know?Does he know?Cloud Natural Language APIGenerating Gender-Specific TranslationsNeural Machine Translation

Identifying and dividing our parallel training data into those with feminine words, those with masculine and those with ungendered words.

Adding an additional input token to the beginning of the sentence to specify the required gender to translate to, similar to how we build multilingual NMT systems:

<2MALE> O bir doktor → He is a doctor
<2FEMALE> O bir doktor → She is a doctor

Training our enhanced NMT model on the feminine, masculine and ungendered data sources. We experimented with various mixing ratios for these sources to enable the model to perform equally well on the three tasks.

Checking for Accuracy

If the requested feminine translation is feminine.

If the requested masculine translation is masculine.

If the feminine and masculine translations are exactly equivalent with the exception of gender-related changes. Even minor changes in the wording between the translations will result in being filtered.

Top: The masculine and feminine translations differ only with respect to gender i.e. “he” and “his” vs “she” and “her”. Hence, we will show gender-specific translations. Bottom: The masculine and feminine translations differ correctly with respect to gender i.e. “he” vs “she”. However, the change from “really” to “actually” is not related to gender. Hence, we will filter gender-specific translations and display the default translation.
