Unsupervised Data Pruning: New method removes useless machine learning data.

Large datasets often contain overly similar examples that consume training cycles without contributing to learning. A new paper identifies similar training examples, even if they’re not labeled.

What the Missing Frames Showed: Machine Learning Describes Masked Video Events

Neural networks can describe in words what’s happening in pictures and videos — but can they make sensible guesses about things that happened before or will happen afterward? Researchers probed this ability.

Tradeoffs for Higher Accuracy: Data Augmentation Plus Weight Decay can Boost Some AI Models

Vision models can be improved by training them on several altered versions of the same image and also by encouraging their weights to be close to zero. Recent research showed that both can have adverse effects that may be difficult to detect.

Right-Sizing Confidence: Object Detector Lowers Confidence for Unfamiliar Inputs

An object detector trained exclusively on urban images might mistake a moose for a pedestrian and express high confidence in its poor judgment. New work enables object detectors, and potentially other neural networks, to lower their confidence when they encounter unfamiliar inputs.
