Partial-View Object View Synthesis via Filtering Inversion
We propose a framework that combines the strengths of generative modeling and network finetun-ing to generate photorealistic 3D renderings of real-world objects
from sparse and sequential RGB inputs.

Interaction Modeling with Multiplex Attention
We present a forward prediction model that uses a multiplex latent graph to represent multiple independent types of interactions and attention to account for relations of different strengths and a progressive training strategy for the proposed model.

Equivariant Neural Network for Factor Graphs
In this paper, we identify factor graph isomorphism and introduce two neural network-based inference models that takes advantages of such inductive biases.

InfoGraph: Unsupervised and Semi-supervised Graph-Level Representation Learning via Mutual Information Maximization
This paper studies learning the representations of whole graphs in both unsupervised and semi-supervised scenarios using mutual information maximization.

vGraph: A Generative Model for Joint Community Detection and Node Representation Learning
In current literature, community detection and node representation learning are usually independently studied while they are actually highly correlated. We propose a probabilistic generative model called vGraph to learn community membership and node representation collaboratively. We also show that the framework of vGraph is quite flexible and can be easily extended to detect hierarchical communities.

A Regulation Enforcement Solution for Multi-agent Reinforcement Learning
In this paper, we proposed a framework to solve the following problem: In a decentralized environment, given that not all agents are compliant to regulations at first, can we develop a mechanism such that it is in the self-interest of non-compliant agents to comply after all. We utilized empirical game-theoretic analysis to justify our method.

Designing Non-greedy Reinforcement Learning Agents with Diminishing Reward Shaping
This paper intends to address an issue in multi-agent RL that when agents possessing varying capabilities. We introduce a simple method to train non-greedy agents with nearly no extra cost. Our model can achieve the following goals: non-homogeneous equality, only need local information, cost-effective, generalizable and configurable.

A Memory-Network Based Solution for Multivariate Time-Series Forecasting
Inspired by Memory Network for solving the question-answering tasks, we proposed a deep learning based model named Memory Time-series network (MTNet) for time series forecasting. Additionally, the attention mechanism designed enable MTNet to be interpretable.

ANS: Adaptive Network Scaling for Deep Rectifier Reinforcement Learning Models
This work provides a thorough study on how reward scaling can affect performance of deep reinforcement learning agents. We also propose an Adaptive Network Scaling framework to find a suitable scale of the rewards during learning for better performance. We conducted empirical studies to justify the solution.

Organ At Risk Segmentation with Multiple Modality
In real world scenario, doctors often utilize multiple modalities. In this paper, we propose to use Generative Adversarial Network to perform CT to MR transformation to synthesize MR images instead of aligning two modalities. The synthesized MR can be jointly trained with CT to achieve better performance.
