Domain Adaptation with Joint Learning for Generic, Optical Car Part Recognition and Detection Systems (Go-CaRD)

Systems for the automatic recognition and detection of automotive parts are crucial in several emerging research areas in the development of intelligent vehicles. They enable, for example, the detection and modelling of interactions between human and the vehicle. In this paper, we quantitatively and qualitatively explore the efficacy of deep learning architectures for the classification and localisation of 29 interior and exterior vehicle regions on three novel datasets. Furthermore, we experiment with joint and transfer learning approaches across datasets and point out potential applications of our systems. Our best network architecture achieves an F1 score of 93.67 % for recognition, while our best localisation approach utilising state-of-the-art backbone networks achieve a mAP of 63.01 % for detection. The MuSe-CAR-Part dataset, which is based on a large variety of human-car interactions in videos, the weights of the best models, and the code is publicly available to academic parties for benchmarking and future research.

MuSe 2020 -- The First International Multimodal Sentiment Analysis in Real-life Media Challenge and Workshop

Multimodal Sentiment Analysis in Real-life Media (MuSe) 2020 is a Challenge-based Workshop focusing on the tasks of sentiment recognition, as well as emotion-target engagement and trustworthiness detection by means of more comprehensively integrating the audio-visual and language modalities. The purpose of MuSe 2020 is to bring together communities from different disciplines; mainly, the audio-visual emotion recognition community (signal-based), and the sentiment analysis community (symbol-based). We present three distinct sub-challenges: MuSe-Wild, which focuses on continuous emotion (arousal and valence) prediction; MuSe-Topic, in which participants recognise domain-specific topics as the target of 3-class (low, medium, high) emotions; and MuSe-Trust, in which the novel aspect of trustworthiness is to be predicted. In this paper, we provide detailed information on MuSe-CaR, the first of its kind in-the-wild database, which is utilised for the challenge, as well as the state-of-the-art features and modelling approaches applied. For each sub-challenge, a competitive baseline for participants is set; namely, on test we report for MuSe-Wild a combined (valence and arousal) CCC of .2568, for MuSe-Topic a score (computed as 0.34$\cdot$ UAR + 0.66$\cdot$F1) of 76.78 % on the 10-class topic and 40.64 % on the 3-class emotion prediction, and for MuSe-Trust a CCC of .4359.

Cross-lingual Zero- and Few-shot Hate Speech Detection Utilising Frozen Transformer Language Models and AXEL

Detecting hate speech, especially in low-resource languages, is a non-trivial challenge. To tackle this, we developed a tailored architecture based on frozen, pre-trained Transformers to examine cross-lingual zero-shot and few-shot learning, in addition to uni-lingual learning, on the HatEval challenge data set. With our novel attention-based classification block AXEL, we demonstrate highly competitive results on the English and Spanish subsets. We also re-sample the English subset, enabling additional, meaningful comparisons in the future.

On Classifying Sepsis Heterogeneity in the ICU: Insight Using Machine Learning

Current machine learning models aiming to predict sepsis from Electronic Health Records (EHR) do not account for the heterogeneity of the condition, despite its emerging importance in prognosis and treatment. This work demonstrates the added value of stratifying the types of organ dysfunction observed in patients who develop sepsis in the ICU in improving the ability to recognise patients at risk of sepsis from their EHR data. Using an ICU dataset of 13,728 records, we identify clinically significant sepsis subpopulations with distinct organ dysfunction patterns. Classification experiments using Random Forest, Gradient Boost Trees and Support Vector Machines, aiming to distinguish patients who develop sepsis in the ICU from those who do not, show that features selected using sepsis subpopulations as background knowledge yield a superior performance regardless of the classification model used. Our findings can steer machine learning efforts towards more personalised models for complex conditions including sepsis.
