INSTRUCTIONS FOR TAKING PHENOLOGICAL OBSERVATIONS

Use of digital cameras for phenological observations

a r t i c l e i n f o Keywords: Digital camera Vegetation phenology RGB Green excess index Green-up date Temperature sensitivity Japan Vegetation phenology such as the onset of green-up and senescence is strongly controlled by climate and other environmental factors, and in turn affects the terrestrial carbon balance. Therefore, phenological observation is important as an indicator of global wa...

Mapping Instructions and Visual Observations to Actions with Reinforcement Learning

We propose to directly map raw visual observations and text input to actions for instruction execution. While existing approaches assume access to structured environment representations or use a pipeline of separately trained models, we learn a single model to jointly reason about linguistic and visual input. We use reinforcement learning in a contextual bandit setting to train a neural network...

Toward a Soar Theory of Taking Instructions for Immediate Reasoning Tasks

Soar is a theory of human cognition [New89], embodied in a computer system. Soar specifies the cognitive architecture, which is the relatively fixed set of mechanisms that permit goals and knowledge of the task environment to be encoded in memory and brought to bear to produce behavior. Soar is proposed as a unified theory of cognition, and it has been applied to human behavior in a broad spect...
