| 林彥宇 Lin, Yen-Yu | 基於深度學習的電腦視覺技術研究 Developing Deep Learning Technologies for Computer Vision Applications | 電腦視覺研究旨在讓電腦能像人類視覺系統一般，可感知、識別、甚至解釋它所看到的影像畫面，它是人工智慧領域相當重要的一個分支。深度學習技術，尤其是卷積神經網絡(CNNs)，近年在電腦視覺應用中取得了迅速的發展與長足的進步，但目前仍存在一些挑戰和局限性。我與我實驗室助理主要(但不限於)從四個方向發展深度學習技術，以更妥適地解電腦視覺應用，包括：A)融入傳統電腦視覺方法至深度學習模型；B)多模態深層感知；C)開發深度學習技術於無監督式影像共同區域偵測；D)高執行效率的嵌入式深度學習。第一個方向旨在讓深度學習模型透過融合傳統電腦視覺方法而提升效能；第二個方向將利用額外的多模態訊號來輔助與增強電腦視覺應用的效果；最後兩個方向分別試圖緩解深度學習在大量訓練資料以及高計算資源的依賴，以降低深度學習的使用門檻，提高其適用範圍。實習生可依興趣選擇上述一至兩個研究方向或其他相關研究議題進行。 Computer vision research aims to enable computers to see, recognize, and interpret the world like human visual systems. As one of the most important branches of AI, computer vision research has gained very significant progress based on recent advances in deep learning, especially convolutional neural networks (CNNs). Although deep learning technologies are rapidly developed for vision applications in the past few years, there are still some cruxes and limitations. My research assistants and I identify four directions for developing deep learning technologies for computer vision applications, including A) integrating classical computer vision methods into deep learning, B) deep multimodal perception, C) unsupervised common region discovery using deep learning, and D) embedded deep learning for inference acceleration. The first direction aims to make conventional and deep learning-based vision approaches complement and improve each other. The second direction is to leverage extra multimodal signals to facilitate vision applications. The last two directions try to alleviate two main limitations of deep learning, i.e., the requirements of large-scale annotated training data and GPUs, respectively. You might join one or two aforementioned projects, or work on a highly related research topic. |

| 曹昱 Tsao, Yu | 結合多模態(聽覺、視覺、觸覺)資訊之口語溝通輔具開發 Assistive Hearing and Speaking Devices based on Integrating Multi-modality Information (Audio, Visual and Tactile Cues) | 語音辨識為多感官共同合作的過程，聽覺管道和視覺管道訊息的整合為辨識語音中不可或缺的歷程。聽者藉由「讀話」(speechreading)，一邊聆聽語音，一邊觀察說話者的嘴型、臉部表情、手勢等，以獲得完整的語音訊息。而當欲聆聽的語音訊息不完整時，例如當聽者身處吵雜的情境中時，聽覺和視覺的訊息整合能力更有其重要性。研究發現，溝通障礙的族群整合視聽覺訊息的能力呈現困難，而聽力損失或老化亦是造成視聽覺整合能力不佳的影響因素。另一方面，在機器自動語音辨識的研究中亦發現，語音及影像事件的整合能更有效增強語音、提高自動語音辨識的結果。因此，本研究將應用多感官訊息整合的技術，整合語音、嘴型、臉部表情與手勢動作的資訊，提出一套創新型的聽覺輔具，以協助聽損者提升語音辨識的成效。研究成果亦將發展為一套整合多感官訊息之創新型聽能訓練平台，作為聽語專業人員為聽損者進行訓練及評量成效的工具。 我們期望發展整合嘴型、臉部表情與手勢動作以有效提升語音辨識之技術，並且開發聽能評估應用軟體：提供測試者（聽力師或語言治療師）為聽損者進行評量，依評量結果調整助聽輔具設定及聽能訓練平台內容，此應用軟體除了以注音輸出做為評量依據，亦計畫整合腦電波儀（EEG）結果於評測系統，期更直接獲得測試者的辨識結果，避免因測試者輸出錯誤造成評測失真的問題。 Human speech recognition is a process that occurs not only in the auditory modality but also the visual modality. The role of visual information is particularly prominent when the auditory speech is contained in a less favorable signal-to-noise ratio. In human communications, the integration of auditory and visual information is a mandatory process and speech disorders may result from difficulties integrating and processing heard and seen speech signals. Our research is to include visual information to provide enhanced recognition of speech signals for the individuals with hearing impairment. Towards this end, we plan to work on a multimodal framework expanding from the integrated deep and ensemble learning algorithm. The role of visual information in recognizing tonal speech, especially Mandarin Chinese, will be first explored in the human-computer interfaces for devising the optimal parameters to integrate audio and visual information in the proposed framework. We will then evaluate the derived optimization criteria and test the proposed framework structure using objective speech quality index methods and subjective human speech perception tests. It has been verified that brain responses can be used as an indicator to speech perception results. To achieve an unbiased and direct evaluation, we plan to incorporate the Electroencephalography (EEG) measurements into the evaluation system to check the rehabilitation progress and optimize the rehabilitation program. The optimized framework structure will be developed into a multimodal training tool for hearing-impaired individuals to consistently and regularly practice in the speech-language intervention and aural rehabilitation process. The outcomes of the proposed project will be development of three tools for enhancement of hearing assistive framework, performance evaluation and a multimodal training program for hearing-impaired individuals. |

| 呂俊賢 Lu, Chun-Shien | 深度感知 Deep Sensing | 壓縮感知(Compressive Sensing/Sampling, abbreviated as CS)是一種新型態的取樣理論。其主要是針對稀疏訊號(sparse signal)可以突破傳統取樣頻率至少必需達到Nyquist rate的限制，CS僅需擷取少量的samples或measurements，在待還原訊號滿足sparsity的條件下，即可利用最佳化的方法來重建原始訊號。CS的特色就是在取樣的同時兼具的降維/壓縮的效果，因此也適用於各種電力或運算能力有限的(行動)裝置。 然而，壓縮感知有多方面的因素(如感測矩陣、dictionary等之設計與訊號具備何種程度之稀疏性或low-rank)需要考量，再加上耗時的最佳化訊號重建；如何賦予壓縮感知更彈性有效的設計與應用則是我們的研究動機。 著眼於深度學習帶來革命性的影響、較少受到人為因素干擾的學習效果、與其快速的inference(計算)能力，我們研究``深度感知(Deep Sensing)''；能以深度學習來實現壓縮感知。 1. 首先，我們研究``深度感知學習網路’’，提出可實現壓縮感知的深度學習網路架構，達成低耗能的資料擷取與低耗能的資料重建；這在過去壓縮感知領域裡是辦不到的。 2. 接著，我們研究``最佳化/壓縮深度感知學習網路’’，主旨在降低整體計算複雜度與網路的大小，並滿足效能的有限損失。這部分的難處在於處理這三個互為牽制的目標仍是不容易。經此最佳化設計後，整個功能便能移植於行動裝置做更廣泛的應用。 3. 最後，對於前兩項研究出的深度感知學習網路，其考量的訊號稀疏性是無結構化的，在壓縮感知文獻中通常假設對欲重建的原始訊號有一定的prior knowledge，如sparsity (重要位置個數)或connected-components個數是已知的。很明顯地，這樣的假設過於理想化，故我們考量結構化(圖形)資料進行``圖形化深度感知學習網路’’之研究。我們的目的有二：(1)利用深度學習幫助壓縮感知自動習得結構化的support pattern而非hand-crafted support set。(2)利用壓縮感知賦予Graph Convolutional Network具備deep sensing能力。如此一來，不僅能大幅降低計算複雜度還能具備scalability (適應於各種網路規模)。 Compressive Sensing/Sampling (abbreviated as CS) is a new paradigm of simultaneous sampling and compression. Without being restricted to the constraint of Nyquist rate, compressive sensing can, in theory, perfectly reconstruct the original signal under the constraints that if only a few samples or measurements extracted from an original signal are available and the signal is sparse. The unique characteristic of CS is that sampling and compression can be simultaneously achieved such that CS is suitably used for resource-limited mobile devices and sensors. Nevertheless, there are several aspects needed to be considered in CS, including the design of sensing matrix and dictionary/basis, the sparsity or low-rank of signals, and time-consuming optimization for signal recovery. Thus, our motivation is to study the efficient and flexible design of compressive sensing. With an eye on the revolutional impact of deep learning, we propose studying ``Deep Sensing’’ to achieve deep learning-based compressive sensing. 1. First, we study ``Deep Sensing Learning Neural Network’’ to present a deep learning architecture to realize compressive sensing in that low energy-consuming data acquisition and signal reconstruction can be achieved simultaneously. 2. Next, we study ``Optimized/Compressed Deep Sensing Learning Neural Network’’. The goal is to reduce the computational complexity and network size but at the same time only allow limited performance loss. The difficulty is that it is still not easy to satisfy the compromise among the three requirements. 3. Finally, we will consider structured support pattern of a signal. In the compressive sensing literature, it is usually to assume a prior knowledge (sparsity or number of connected components are known) about the signal to be reconstructed. Obviously, such an assumption is too ideal. Thus, we consider structured (graphic) data and propose ``Graph Deep Sensing Learning Neural Network’’. Our goal is two-fold: (1) Deep learning is used to help compressive sensing to learn structured support pattern instead of hand-crafted support set. (2) Compressive sensing is used to give Graph Convolutional Network（GCN）the capability of deep sensing. |

| 宋定懿 Sung, Ting-Yi | 癌症蛋白基因體之生物資訊研究 Bioinformatics for Proteogenomics analysis of Cancers | 蛋白質是基因最後的產物，在細胞內執行各種不同的生物功能。在醫藥研究方面，蛋白質是最主要的藥物標的。因此在後基因體時代，蛋白體研究也因質譜儀實驗技術的精進而蓬勃發展，癌症研究逐步跨入癌症相關的蛋白體探索。質譜儀為蛋白體研究上最常用的實驗方法，質譜儀產生大量質譜資料，因此質譜資料計算與分析是重要課題。本實驗室是台灣極少數進行蛋白體學生物資訊研究的實驗室，我們專攻蛋白體學研究上質譜儀資料處理之計算方法及軟體系統開發。目前正在執行台灣癌症登月計畫(Taiwan Cancer Moonshot Project)，是中研院團隊進行生物資訊研究與資料分析的一員，我們實驗室主要參與肺癌研究。 目前癌症研究以經由蛋白體分析，跨入蛋白基因體分析；以肺癌為例，台灣肺癌病患常可發現epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR ) 在基因體層次有突變發生，目前需要在蛋白質層次上看到這些突變。我們研究的目標，是希望找出與肺癌相關特定蛋白質中的變異胜肽，並建立一套合適的分析流程，以提高鑑定出的肺癌相關之變異蛋白質的質譜圖的可性度。我們竭誠歡迎有志學習、有熱情的同學加入暑期實習。 Proteins are the final product of genes that execute various biological functions in cells. Furthermore, in biomedicine, proteins are the most prominent drug targets. Therefore, after the genomics era as the advancement of mass spectrometry technology, proteomics research became prevailing and essential in cancer research. Mass spectrometry (MS) is the most commonly used experiment technology to conduct proteomics research. As the advancement of MS technology, high-throughput MS data will be generated. The analysis of such big MS data is an very important topic. Our lab is one of the very few labs conducting research on bioinformatics for proteomics. We particularly work on mass spectrometry data analysis, including algorithm design and software development. Now we are jointly conducting Taiwan Cancer Moonshot Project and working on MS data analysis for lung cancer research. Nowadays, cancer research further moves from proteomics analysis to proteogenomics analysis. For example, mutations on epidermal growth factor receptor have been observed at genomics level in Taiwan lung cancer patients; and we are interested in finding these mutations at proteomics level. Our goal is to find variant peptides in some specific proteins that are relevant to lung cancer and to develop a data analysis pipeline to facilitate the discovery of variant peptides and their confidence. |

| 許聞廉 Hsu, Wen-Lian | 探索統計式準則於自然語言處理之各項應用 Applications of the statistical principle-based approach on natural language processing | 近年來自然語言處理的研究方法主要分為規則式以及機器學習統計方法兩種。然而，規則式方法需仰賴大量人力建構及維護規則，機器學習演算法則需大量的語料作為訓練基礎，這些問題導致目前自然語言處理及理解的研究面臨到不少的困難。本年度我們計畫將針對機器學習演算法的限制所開發的統計準則式方法(Statistical Principle-based Approach, SPBA)應用於當前的自然語言處理及理解研究，包括文獻資料擷取(Reference Metadata Extraction, RME)、中文及生物醫學領域之專有名詞辨識(Named Entity Recognition, NER)及關聯擷取(Relation Extraction, RE)、中文問答系統(Question Answering, QA)、機器閱讀(Machine reading)、小學數學問題解析(Analysis of mathematical problems in primary school)、中文輸入法(Chinese input method)、文件主題偵測(Text topic detection)、意見分析(Opinion mining)等。 Recent approaches for natural language processing can be roughly categorized into two types, namely, rule-based methods and statistical machine learning (ML) methods. The former type relies on a large number of hand-crafted rules, and the latter is heavily dependent on the size of the training corpus. The lack of resources hinders the research on natural language processing and understanding. This year, we focus on the application of the statistical principle-based approach (SPBA), which was developed specifically to avoid the common pitfalls of ML methods. Possible applications include reference metadata extraction, named entity recognition, question answering, machine reading, analysis of mathematical problems in primary school, Chinese input method, text topic detection, opinion mining, etc. |

| 穆信成 Mu, Shin-Cheng | 函數編程與程式推理相關問題 Functional Programming and Program Reasoning | 我的研究興趣是程式語言與函數編程。在函數語言中，一個程式(理想上）僅是一個數學式，而執行程式就是將其化簡成一個值。這種簡單的計算模型給我們的好處：是我們有了許多好性質，可用來做推理，檢驗程式的正確性，甚至可由轉體規格與需求開始，經由數學方法一步步推導出程式。 本領域可做的大方向包括 * 設計幫助推理用的符號、程式語言、型別系統等。 * 挑選一些演算法問題，嘗試以數學方法實際證明演算法之正確性，或將演算法推導出來。 細節可再討論。 My research interest concerns programming language and functional programming. The fact that a program in a functional language is (ideally) just a mathematical expression, and to run a program is to evaluate it to a normal form. This simple model allows programs to have many nice mathematical properties, with which we may reasoning about programs, prove their correctness, or even derive a program stepwise from its specification. The general directions of our research could be: * design symbols, languages, or type systems that aids the programmers in reasoning about programs, and * pick an algorithm, and apply our approaches to prove its correctness or even to derive an algorithm. More details can be discussed. |

| 李德財 Lee, Der- Tsai | 計算幾何上叢集問題探討 Some Clustering problems on Computational Geometry | 考慮d維空間R^d中, 一組n個點址的集合S和另外一組m個點的集合X。S的(歐氏最近點)Voronoi圖形定義了一個分派函數(assignment function)A : X → S , A(x) = VR(s) 在此VR(s)表示址s ∈ S的Voronoi區域 給予S和X, 我們希望能夠藉由變更定義S的Voronoi圖形的距離函數, 去改變分派X到S的結果。為了達到這個目的, 我們賦予了一組權重函數W = {w(s) | s ∈ S}給這些點址, 並且用下面的力量函數, 取代x點和 s址之間的歐氏距離函數d(x , s) pow_w(x , s) = d(x , s)^2-w(s)。 就如上述, 我們可獲致一個分派函數A_w : X → S ,它取決於所選擇的權重函數W。在d維空間中, 點集合X對於址集合S之點址(或是群集中心)的最小平方叢集( least-squares clustering)被定義為最小化址和它相關點之間的歐氏距離平方和。我們感興趣的是受限(constrained)最小平方叢集, 即每個址之容量(與其相關點之個數)是有限定的。有趣的是, 用力量圖形所定義出來的分派函數, 就會得到受限最小平方叢集。 本計劃我們將探討許多幾何上的叢集問題, 透由尋找它們許多有用的性質來發展更有效率的演算法, 並進而試著實作出這些演算法。 Voronoi diagrams partition their underlying space according to a given set of sites and a distance function. In this sense, they naturally induce a clustering of space. Consider a set S of n point sites, and another set X of m points, in d-space R^d. The (closest-site Euclidean) Voronoi diagram of S defines an assignment function A : X → S, given by A(x) = s if and only if x ∈ VR(s). Here VR(s) denotes the Voronoi region of site s ∈ S. We will discuss the power diagrams, Given S and X, we would like to be able to change the assignment by varying the distance function that underlies the Voronoi diagram of S. We attach a set W = {w(s) | s ∈ S} of weights to the sites, and replace the Euclidean distance d(x, s) between a point x and a site s by the power function pow_W (x, s) = d(x, s)^2 − w(s). As above, we obtain an assignment function A_W : X → S which now depends on the choice of weights. A least-squares clustering of a set X of points with respect to a set S of sites (or cluster centers) in d-space is defined to minimize the total squared Euclidean distance between the sites and their associated points. Our interest is in constrained least-squares clusterings, where the number of associated points per site (i.e., its capacity) is prescribed. Interestingly, assignments defined by power diagrams are constrained least-squares clusterings. In this project we will study some geometric cluster problems and try to find their properties to develop some efficient algorithms and try to implement these algorithms. |

| 張韻詩 Liu, Jane Win Shih | 善用巨量開放資料與互聯網於强化災防應對與社區復原能力 Disaster Resiliency through Big Open Data and Smart Things (DRBoaST) | 善用巨量開放資料與互聯網於强化災防應對與社區復原能力計畫(DRBoaST project)建立於中研院永續科學研究計畫OpenISDM之研究成果上，持續發展相關防救災之學術與實務研究。DRBoaST計畫之目的包括研發快速獲取災害資料之工具與方法，並專注於產生關鍵性之防救災資料及資訊，用以大幅減少災害所帶來的風險，進一步研發善用開放資料與互聯網的防救災軟體與服務，讓官方與民間在面對緊急災害時，具備更完善之抗災能力與更有效率之應變機制。 DRBoast計畫由五個子計畫組成，分別為SIDiRC (韌性社區的災害資訊與防治策略) 、RTEIC (地震防護與應變即時資訊雲端系統)、DiSRC (災害情境截取與紀錄編輯技術)、ADiPLE (主動備災的智能生活環境) 與CSAI (群眾外包策略用於蒐集災情資料之學理基礎研究)。 SIDiRC 子計畫專注於產生最新且精細的社區防災資訊，進而實地應用於台灣易受災之鄉村區域。RTEIC子計畫已完成建置一個整合氣象局地震速報與學界即時科學成果的資訊系統，除了會持續改進這套系統並擴充即時科學成果之外，並研討如何用大型地震後蒐集的觀測資料去評估地震後之潛災害風險及預測可能的複合性災害。DiSRC 子計畫專注於研發具有前瞻性的軟體工具，提供使用者可以詳細記錄各種災害情景，進而轉化機器可讀的資料格式以便未來利用。ADiPLE 子計畫之目的在於實現無所不在的主動式緊急應變系統，藉由接收災害有關當局的警報訊息，啟動適當的回應措施，提供降低人員傷亡的功效。CSAI子計畫將完成群眾外包災害資訊蒐集系統，並具體運用在缺乏災害資訊的環境中，以利提升與量化決策品質。 DRBoast計畫之預期成果包括以社區為基礎之防救災資訊雲、即時地震資訊雲、以群眾外包為基礎之災情訊息蒐集系統、主動型智能防災應變系統、災害情境截取與紀錄編輯技術，為能明確展現上述系統之優勢與應用層面，計畫成果也包含相關之基礎學理與關鍵技術之發表。 為了使DRBoaST研究成果可以具體落實，DRBoaST計畫將持續與NCDR和CWB保持在去三年執行OpenISDM計畫之密切合作關係，也與致力於巨量資料處理，物聯網設計、雲端與人工運算應用於災害管理的國際研究機構及計畫合作。在台灣的新合作夥伴包括智邦科技公司、新光保全與台灣大學醫院，以順利推動技術轉移之相關工作。 As it is evident from their annual reports, within the first year, all the subprojects are making good progress in reaching their milestones according to the proposed schedule. The Appendix provides a list of the project's accomplishments to date, including journal and conference publications, presentations at major conferences, prototypes and awards. The project has also provided tens of graduate students and summer interns with opportunities and environment for multi-disciplinary applied research and advanced development. Their names are listed on the cover of this report. The project as a whole have been interacting and collaborating in the following three ways: Between individual subprojects: The collaboration between subprojects 2 (RTEIC) and 5 (CSAI) throughout the year is a win-win effort. Specifically, Subproject 2 is using the volunteer management system (VMS) and crowdsource map manager (CMM) developed by Subproject 5. This collaboration enables Subproject 2 to have the tools better customized to suit their needs. Subproject 5 has been benefited by feedback from Subproject 2 on features and usability of the modules to guide their efforts in enhancing their prototype tools. This collaboration will surely continue throughout the project duration. With partners and targets of technology transfer: Within the first year, the project did not participate in further development of CAP-Taiwan Profile as planned, mostly due to that fact that the profile is sufficiently mature and is now in use in Taiwan. The project has been working with SKS Security (新光保全股份有限公司) and Taiwan University Hospital to plan for pilot studies for assessing the usability and effectives of the indoor positioning system [9] for use in large public buildings and a building/environment information mist for fine-scale, location-specific emergency response instruction delivery [1]. Assessing the systems in real-life environments by targeted users is the first step towards enabling their wide use in the future. The project will continue to seek similar opportunities for such collaboration. The project has also been reaching out for other likely collaborators, including companies such as HEX (瑞德感知), a likely target of technology transfer, and Accton (智邦科技), a possible collaborator in our efforts to make critical components such as location beacons and intelligent gateways better and cheaper. Case studies: DRBoaST project proposed to carry out two case studies that aim to tie together results of subprojects through test scenarios and experimentations for assessment and validation purposes. One is the earthquake detection, preparedness and response (EDPR) case study, which is the focus of the project this year and first part of the next year. The other is one involving flood and debris flow, which will be developed in mid-2017. The project has been making steady progress in EDPR. Hoping that there will not be a major earthquake in coming years, the project will work with scenarios from past major earthquakes, including the 1935/04/21 新竹－臺中地震 and the 2016/02/06 高雄美濃地震. The next step is fleshing out test scenarios and specify the requirements of tools and devices, including contents and capabilities of the information sources, that will participate in the scenarios. These tasks will be completed early 2017. All the subprojects will have prototype devices and systems ready for experimentation by that time, and the project will be able start their assessment within the test scenarios. |

| 王建民 Wang, Chien-Min | 雲端運算與人智運算 Cloud Computing and Human-Centered Computing | (1) 整合記憶體內資料儲存的雲端計算平台：MapReduce是目前利用雲端計算來處理巨量資料方面，最常用的平行計算模型。然而我們發現有一類雲端應用，雖然非常適合MapReduce模型，但是其執行效能卻非常低落，而且計算規模也有很大的限制。這類應用包括用於基因定序的後綴陣列排序和近來很受重視的演化式計算。我們將對現有的Hadoop平台進行擴充和改進，融合記憶體內資料儲存，提出一個泛用的加強型雲端計算平台，以提升執行效能和規模擴充性。我們也將實作後綴陣列排序以及演化式計算，以驗證我們所提出的架構，對於這兩種應用的執行效能和應用規模有多大的提升。我們相信這樣的雲端計算平台不但對於學術研究有很大的貢獻，還能大幅拓展雲端計算平台的應用。 (2) 人智運算的穿戴運算系統：研究穿戴式電腦及裝置在人智計算中的應用，特別是在社交網路方面的應用。我們計劃中的人智運算系統應具備的三種能力：具有解周遭環境與人們情況的能力，可提供使生活更美好的服務，和透過感官與人類自然地互動。為了實現這三個能力，我們計劃中將從三個研究學科來發展：情境識別，雲服務，以及擴增實境。我們計畫透過先進的系統設計，提供更適合未來人類生活以及具備更友善人機互動的應用程式。藉由研究相關的穿戴式電腦及裝置，開發更佳的人機整合功能，並透過社交網路系統之系統分析，研究並開發穿戴式社交網路系統。我們將著重於友善的使用者界面，以提升使用者經驗為目標，並且提供更適合的情境感知技術與實境服務的增強實境功能。 (1) A MapRedice framework with an In-memory Data Store: MapReduce is a powerful programming model for processing large data sets with a parallel, distributed algorithm on clouds. The Hadoop framework is the most popular implementation of MapReduce and widely adopted in the processing of large datasets. However, our previous experience on suffix array construction with Hadoop shows that it might result in excessive disk usage and access. Therefore, the performance is degraded and the scale of the application is limited. In this project, we aim at efficient and scalable processing of expansive MapReduce (EMR) applications with in-memory data stores. EMR applications, including suffix array construction and evolutionary computation, are a group of applications that have performance and scalability issues with Hadoop. We shall integrate an in-memory data store with Hadoop and propose a MapReduce framework for EMR applications to enhance their performance and scalability. To validate the benefit of the proposed framework, we shall use suffix array construction and evolutionary computation as our testbed. (2) Wearable Computing Systems and Applications in Human-Centered Computing: The goal of this project is to investigate the application of wearable computers and devices in Human-Centered Computing, especially those applications on social networks. A human centered computing system should have three abilities: understanding the context of the surrounding area and humans, providing the service that makes the lives better, and interacting with human naturally through perception. To realize these three abilities, we plan to adopt three corresponding research disciplines: context recognition, cloud service, and augmented reality. Wearable computers and social network services will be integrated to build the proposed wearable social network system. The proposed system will provide more convenient and user-friendly human-computer interaction. |

This motivates the study of the so-called online decision problem, in which one must iteratively choose an action and then receive some corresponding loss for a number of rounds. It is a fundamental problem in the area of machine learning, and it has surprising applications in several other areas as well. We would like to design better online algorithms which can learn from the past and make better decisions as time goes by. We would also like to find more applications in other areas, especially in the area of game theory. |

| 馬偉雲 Ma, Wei-Yun | 透過深度學習進行：推薦功能對話機器人/智慧黑白講對話機器人/自動知識學習系統 透過深度學習進行：推薦功能對話機器人/智慧黑白講對話機器人/自動知識學習系統 | 今年的實習我們邀請同學透過深度學習(Deep Learning)進行以下三項專案的其中之一： 1. 推薦功能對話機器人：透過深度學習當中的增強式學習(Reinforcement Learning)，打造一個具推薦功能的機器人，跟一般的FAQ或是單純搜尋任務(如訂票)不同，機器人必須根據對話了解使用者的需求，綜合分析產品或服務，然後以具有邏輯與說服力的說明，來推薦其中的產品或服務，舉個極端例子來說，就算user已經要購買某項特定服務或商品(如買某電影的票)，機器人仍然可以根據跟user的對話過程，與其他電影的了解，評估可能還有user更有興趣的電影可以加以推薦。簡言之，我們要打造的不是 “AI服務員”，我們要打造 “AI顧問”. 去年(2017)暑期intern在此項目有豐碩成果，所開發的美妝保養顧問-PerMu機器人拿到2017 痞克邦 HACKATHON 最佳產品力獎 (報導在https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w7eUtJ_PLU0)，目前正與痞克邦洽談合作. 另外，我們也跟LINE Taiwan正進行新聞聊天機器人的合作，將LINE Today的新聞推薦給使用者。 2. 智慧黑白講對話機器人：第二個專案會著重在所謂 chitchat，或稱智慧黑白講，也就是沒有特定目的的聊天. 我們會提供微博抓下來的對話聊天語料作為訓練資料. 目前大多數的作法是深度學習當中的seqence-to-sequence model，我們想將更豐富的語義訊息放在model中，打造新一代semantics-to-sequence model，我們實驗室過去開發了人類的知識網(Ehownet)，對semantics的向量化表達有豐富經驗，可以提供intern創新的深度學習探索空間，而不僅僅是implement文獻上已有的作法。 3. 自動知識學習系統：我們知道新的知識會夜以繼日的不斷產生，一個具有AI能力的系統最重要的功能之一就是能夠從大量的資料當中，分析資料，加以理解，組織成結構化知識。我們實驗室過去已經開發了人類的知識網(E-HowNet)，打下堅實基礎，此專案的目標是進一步加以擴張，利用機器閱讀的深度學習技術(RNN/CNN)將關鍵的關係三元組合從閱讀的文章中自動抽取出來，如 (”林書豪” ，MemberOf，”籃網隊”) 或是 (“麥特載蒙”，PlayerOf，”心靈捕手”)等等。 今年的實習我們邀請同學透過深度學習(Deep Learning)進行以下三項專案的其中之一： 1. 推薦功能對話機器人：透過深度學習當中的增強式學習(Reinforcement Learning)，打造一個具推薦功能的機器人，跟一般的FAQ或是單純搜尋任務(如訂票)不同，機器人必須根據對話了解使用者的需求，綜合分析產品或服務，然後以具有邏輯與說服力的說明，來推薦其中的產品或服務，舉個極端例子來說，就算user已經要購買某項特定服務或商品(如買某電影的票)，機器人仍然可以根據跟user的對話過程，與其他電影的了解，評估可能還有user更有興趣的電影可以加以推薦。簡言之，我們要打造的不是 “AI服務員”，我們要打造 “AI顧問”. 去年(2017)暑期intern在此項目有豐碩成果，所開發的美妝保養顧問-PerMu機器人拿到2017 痞克邦 HACKATHON 最佳產品力獎 (報導在https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w7eUtJ_PLU0)，目前正與痞克邦洽談合作. 另外，我們也跟LINE Taiwan正進行新聞聊天機器人的合作，將LINE Today的新聞推薦給使用者。 2. 智慧黑白講對話機器人：第二個專案會著重在所謂 chitchat，或稱智慧黑白講，也就是沒有特定目的的聊天. 我們會提供微博抓下來的對話聊天語料作為訓練資料. 目前大多數的作法是深度學習當中的seqence-to-sequence model，我們想將更豐富的語義訊息放在model中，打造新一代semantics-to-sequence model，我們實驗室過去開發了人類的知識網(Ehownet)，對semantics的向量化表達有豐富經驗，可以提供intern創新的深度學習探索空間，而不僅僅是implement文獻上已有的作法。 3. 自動知識學習系統：我們知道新的知識會夜以繼日的不斷產生，一個具有AI能力的系統最重要的功能之一就是能夠從大量的資料當中，分析資料，加以理解，組織成結構化知識。我們實驗室過去已經開發了人類的知識網(E-HowNet)，打下堅實基礎，此專案的目標是進一步加以擴張，利用機器閱讀的深度學習技術(RNN/CNN)將關鍵的關係三元組合從閱讀的文章中自動抽取出來，如 (”林書豪” ，MemberOf，”籃網隊”) 或是 (“麥特載蒙”，PlayerOf，”心靈捕手”)等等。 |

| 莊庭瑞 Chuang, Tyng-Ruey | 敏感資料群組共享模式之研究 Communal Sharing of Sensitive Data | 巨量資料科技的發展為當代人口、社會行為以及公共衛生等仰賴對巨量資料進行二次利用之系統性研究帶來變革。然而，這些技術性的革命也同時帶來諸多適法性的爭議，例如：資料共享的正當法律程序、隱私權的維護以及個人資料的保護等。除此之外，如何在鼓勵資料共享的同時，透過對資訊流動的妥適管制確保資訊的私隱性，亦屬巨量資料科技下另一重要的倫理道德挑戰。而這些巨量資料科技下的適法性與倫理道德考量，或可透過促進公眾參與之方式，進而將如何衡平資料二次使用所帶來之風險與易用性，以制度化之模式達到對隱私權的保障。 本研究計畫預計提出一可行性架構，並將隱私權納入使該架構以系統化之方式符合法律規範與要求，包括正當法律程序、資料掌控之透明化、社會參與以及負責任的自我管理等。為了改良現有的隱私權框架，本計畫將進一步探討三個研究主題，包括：集結個人資料之規範、基準與管制；共有資料分享之具可保密性以及具可審計性；及以參與者為中心之資料分享管理架構。最終，本計畫期能建構適用於各種領域，並以參與者為中心且以社會為基準，亦能符應社會歸責之資料二次使用隱私框架。 The recent information technology revolution has brought new challenges in the legal arena for the due process data sharing, the right to privacy, and personal data protection. How to appropriately manage the flows of information and to encourage data sharing yet keep shared information private remains a challenge. These concerns have moved beyond the traditional privacy frameworks that focus merely on anonymity and de-identification. Instead, it relies on the establishment of a more socially accountable and communicative framework that not only can balance the risk and usability of secondary data usage, but also can institutionalize that demand by improving public participation. By critically reviewing existing data access models, techniques and practices, this project aims at proposing a doable framework by designing privacy into a comprehensive system that can accommodate the legitimate requirements of community participation, transparent data control, and responsible self-management in the big data era. Specifically, this project will survey and develop the governing principles of a communal approach to personal data management where members of a community pool sensitive information about themselves for mutual benefits and public good. |
