Joint Workshop on Deep (or Machine) Learning for Safety-Critical Applications in Engineering
by Mariam Kiran 19 Apr '18

19 Apr '18

Dear All, Apologies for cross posting. This is a Joint Workshop between ICML (https://icml.cc/Conferences/2 018/CallForWorkshops), AAMAS (http://celweb.vuse.vanderbilt .edu/aamas18/workshopsList/) and IJCAI (https://www.ijcai-18.org/workshops/ ). Modern technological advances in engineering fields such as automotive, aerospace, robotic, even data centers and networks, are exploiting machine learning to improve and maintain mission critical activities. These systems are large, complex and require real-time learning with feedback to ensure they function as desired. Detecting anomalies, analyzing failures and predicting future system state are imperative and are becoming part of engineering integrative approaches. Research in algorithmic methods to make real-time decisions based on fast arriving, high-volume condition data, on-site feedback and data models is needed to train machine learning models quickly and correctly. This workshop aims to bring together diverse researchers from areas such as reinforcement learning, autonomous agents, game theory, controls and operations engineering teams to develop approaches which enable real-time discovery, inference and computational tools. These techniques are aimed to influence engineering operations teams in aerospace, self-driving automotive, robotics, data centers and any engineering operations that automate mission-critical and safety applications. We encourage focus on aspects of deep learning to solve problems into domains where continuous training and fast results are needed without jeopardizing prediction accuracy. However, we also encourage exploration of new innovative machine learning approaches, which can solve these problems with improved latency. We are also seeking contributions in advances of streaming and distributed algorithms, heterogeneous and high-dimensional data sets and real-time decision- making algorithms for operations. Some possible topics of interests but not confined are: - *Adaptation*: How can systems learn and adapt to changes in the environment (especially in dynamic environments) when training data is less and requires quick model assumption. How can principles of autonomous agents working together to build large engineering systems be exploited to react in dynamic situations. - *Noisy and poor data sets*: How can machine learning models be trained to understand noisy data sets for quick learning. Missing data exploration? - *Detecting anomalous behavior:* How can anomalies be detected quickly and partitioned appropriately such that correct actions are applied? - *Improving latency:* How can machine learning algorithms be improved to produce results quickly than previously anticipated? - *Improving software and hardware performance:* Exploring models of GPU, HPC processing and FPGAs to improve the performance of algorithms can greatly influence their use in engineering design. Experimental demonstrations are encouraged to display this. - *Reinforcement learning:* How can machine learn correct behavior? Can training be made quicker with guidance to allow algorithms to produce corrective measure when anomalies are detected? - *Human factors:* how can engineers maintaining the system interact with the self- autonomous system - *Open problems in engineering where machine learning is not proving fruitful*. What are the open problems in operations where practical machine learning is difficult to apply? What are the limitations and how can these be improved? Workshop dates will be between 14th and 15th of July 2018, located as part of Joint IJCAI/ECAI/AAMAS/ICML Call for Workshops. Specific dates will be announced soon. Important dates: -------------------------- - Submission deadline: 28th May, 2018, 23:59 (PDT) - Author notification: 15th June, 2018 - Camera-ready (final) paper deadline: 1st July, 2018 - Workshop: 14th or 15th July, 2018 (To be confirmed) Submission Guidelines: -------------------------------- The abstract and paper submission deadline is the 28th of May 2018.
