Information retrieval methods employ a neural network encoder configured to receive a dense representation and generate a composite code comprising C clusters of dimension L from the dense representation. An activation function is configured to generate a sparse composite code from the composite code. The sparse composite code comprises a binary representation. An index can be generated using the sparse composite code.

According to one embodiment, a machine learning apparatus includes a processing circuit. The processing circuit trains a first learning: parameter of an extraction layer configured to extract feature data of the input data, based on a plurality of training data. The processing circuit trains a second learning parameter of a reconstruction layer configured to generate reconstructed data of the input data, based on a plurality of training feature data obtained by applying the trained extraction layer to the plurality of training data. The second learning parameter represents representative vectors as many as a dimension count of the feature data. The representative vectors as many as the dimension count are based on a weighted sum of the plurality of training data.

A computer system may receive medical-imaging data associated with at least an individual. Then, the computer system may compute, based at least in part on the medical-imaging data, a set of white-matter disease biomarkers for different neurological anatomical regions, where, for a given neurological anatomical region, the set of white-matter disease biomarkers includes: an apparent fiber density that corresponds to a total intra-axonal volume, an amount of free water, and a demyelination metric. Next, the computer system may provide feedback information associated with at least the individual based at least in part on interrelationships among the computed set of white-matter disease biomarkers in different neurological anatomical regions. For example, the feedback information may include: diagnostic information, information associated with disease progression (such as a disease stage), information regarding efficacy of a treatment, or a treatment recommendation (e.g., based at least in part on the disease stage).

The present disclosure describes techniques for identifying music attributes. The described techniques comprises receiving audio data of a piece of music; determining at least one attribute of the piece of music based on the audio data of the piece of music using a model; the model comprising a convolutional neural network and a transformer; the model being pre-trained using training data, wherein the training data comprise labelled data associated with a first plurality of music samples and unlabelled data associated with a second plurality of music samples, the labelled data comprise audio data of the first plurality of music samples and label information indicative of attributes of the first plurality of music samples, and the unlabelled data comprise audio data of the second plurality of music samples.

Mechanisms are provided for performing artificial intelligence-based video question answering. A video parser parses an input video data sequence to generate situation data structure(s), each situation data structure comprising data elements corresponding to entities, and first relationships between entities, identified by the video parser as present in images of the input video data sequence. First machine learning computer model(s) operate on the situation data structure(s) to predict second relationship(s) between the situation data structure(s). Second machine learning computer model(s) execute on a received input question to predict an executable program to execute to answer the received question. The program is executed on the situation data structure(s) and predicted second relationship(s). An answer to the question is output based on results of executing the program.
