What are LSTMs?
0
This reading will explain what a long short-term memory neural network is. LSTMs are a type of neural networks that rely on both past and present data to make decisions about future data. It relies on loops back to previous data to make such decisions. This makes LSTMs very good for predicting time-dependent behavior.

Probabilistic Semantic Data Association for Collaborative Human-Robot Sensing
0
Humans cannot always be treated as oracles for collaborative sensing. Robots thus need to maintain beliefs over unknown world states when receiving semantic data from humans, as well as account for possible discrepancies between human-provided data and these beliefs. To this end, this paper introduces the problem of semantic data association (SDA) in relation to conventional data association problems for sensor fusion. It then, develops a novel probabilistic semantic data association (PSDA) algorithm to rigorously address SDA in general settings. Simulations of a multi-object search task show that PSDA enables robust collaborative state estimation under a wide range of conditions.
A visual introduction to Gaussian Belief Propagation
0
This website is an interactive introduction to Gaussian Belief Propagation (GBP). A probabilistic inference algorithm that operates by passing messages between the nodes of arbitrarily structured factor graphs. A special case of loopy belief propagation, GBP updates rely only on local information and will converge independently of the message schedule. The key argument is that, given recent trends in computing hardware, GBP has the right computational properties to act as a scalable distributed probabilistic inference framework for future machine learning systems.
