Recurrent Reinforcement Learning with Memoroids

Steven Morad, Chris Lu, Ryan Kortvelesy +3

Memory models such as Recurrent Neural Networks (RNNs) and Transformers address Partially Observable Markov Decision Processes (POMDPs) by mapping trajectories to latent Markov sta…

Reinforcement Learning with Fast and Forgetful Memory

Steven Morad, Ryan Kortvelesy, Stephan Liwicki +1

Nearly all real world tasks are inherently partially observable, necessitating the use of memory in Reinforcement Learning (RL). Most model-free approaches summarize the trajectory…

ContextNet: Exploring Context and Detail for Semantic Segmentation in Real-time

Rudra P K Poudel, Ujwal Bonde, Stephan Liwicki +1

Modern deep learning architectures produce highly accurate results on many challenging semantic segmentation datasets. State-of-the-art methods are, however, not directly transfera…

DiaLoc: An Iterative Approach to Embodied Dialog Localization

Chao Zhang, Mohan Li, Ignas Budvytis +1

Multimodal learning has advanced the performance for many vision-language tasks. However, most existing works in embodied dialog research focus on navigation and leave the localiza…
