Given an input video, its associated audio, and a brief caption, the audio-visual scene aware dialog (AVSD) task requires agent to indulge in question-answer with human about content. This thus poses challenging multi-modal representation learning reasoning scenario, advancements into which could influence several human-machine interaction applications. To solve this task, we introduce semantic...

This paper studies the game of guessing riffle-shuffled cards with complete feedback. A deck n labeled 1 to is once and placed on a table. player tries guess from top given feedback after each guess. The goal find strategy maximum reward (expected number correct guesses). We give optimal for this prove that expected n∕2+2∕π⋅n+O(1), partially solving an open problem Bayer Diaconis (Bayer Diaconi...

Industrial scale continuous stirred tank reactor (CSTR) for production and grade transitions of poly vinyl acetate (PVAc) at the different reactor sizes was investigated. Such reactor is known to show oscillatory behavior and to have periodic limit points, particularly at high molecular weights. Four efficient novel hybrid optimization methods which use variable population size genetic algorith...

general, any n-sequence determines a multiset of (= n!/k!(n-k)!) k-sequences. "J Suppose, conversely, that we are given a multiset 01 k-sequences. Does that multiset come from some sequence? If so, is the source sequence unique? Such questions are reminiscent of the problem of reconstructing graphs from vertex-deleted sub raphs, which has received a great deal of attention in the last twent yea...
