ddpm的重参数化技巧
DDPM(Diffusion Deep Probabilistic Model)是一种生成模型,用于建模高维数据的分布。
在DDPM中,重参数化技巧被应用于训练模型和生成样本。
在DDPM中,重参数化技巧的主要目的是使梯度可以通过随机采样进行有效的反向传播。
具体而言,重参数化技巧将模型中的随机变量重新参数化为一个确定性函数(通常是通过变量的均值和标准差进行参数化)。
这样一来,在模型训练过程中,可以通过采样一个固定的噪声向量来生成样本,而不需要进行不可导的随机采样操作。
通过重参数化技巧,可以将采样过程的随机性从模型中分离出来,使得模型在前向计算和反向传播中都保持可微分。
这样,可以使用基于梯度的优化算法(如反向传播和随机梯度下降)来训练DDPM模型。
重参数化技巧的一种常见形式是使用扰动抽样(Perturbation Sampling)。
在这种方法中,模型中的随机变量由一个固定的噪声向量和参数化函数来生成。
通过学习生成函数的参数,可以控制噪声向量对生成样本的影响,从而调整模型的输出分布。
总的来说,重参数化技巧是在生成模型中的一种常用技术,通过将随机性与模型的确定性部分分离,使得模型在训练和采样过程中都能保持可微分性。
这为使用梯度优化算法进行模型训练和生成样本提供了便利。

多模态机器学习的标签生成与迁移学习随着多模态数据的广泛应用,多模态机器学习的研究也越来越受到关注。
在多模态机器学习中,标签生成是一个重要的任务,它可以用来从多个模态中自动地生成标签。
而迁移学习则是指在一个任务上训练好的模型可以迁移到另一个任务上进行应用。
本文将探讨多模态机器学习中的标签生成与迁移学习,并讨论它们在实际应用中的挑战和解决方法。
首先,我们来介绍一下什么是多模态机器学习。
在传统的机器学习方法中,通常只使用单一模态数据进行训练和预测。
而在现实生活中,我们经常会遇到同时包含图像、文本、语音等不同类型数据的场景。
这些不同类型的数据相互之间存在着丰富而复杂的关联关系,通过同时使用这些数据进行训练和预测可以提高系统性能。
标签生成是指从原始输入数据中自动地提取出相应标签信息。
在单一模态场景下,通常可以通过监督式学习方法来实现标签生成任务。
然而,在多模态场景下,由于不同模态数据之间的差异性,传统的监督式学习方法可能无法直接应用。
因此,研究者们提出了一系列方法来解决多模态标签生成任务。
其中一种常用的方法是使用深度学习模型来学习多模态数据之间的关联关系。
通过将不同类型的数据输入到深度神经网络中,可以通过网络中间层的表示来捕捉到不同模态之间的关联信息。
然而,在多模态标签生成任务中还存在着一些挑战。
首先是数据异构性问题。
由于不同类型数据之间存在着差异性,因此如何将不同类型数据进行有效地融合是一个关键问题。
其次是标签稀疏性问题。
在多模态场景下,由于每种类型的数据都可能存在着缺失或噪声,因此如何有效地提取出准确且稳定的标签信息也是一个挑战。
为了解决这些挑战,研究者们提出了一系列方法和技术来改进多模态标签生成任务。
其中一种常用的方法是使用注意力机制来对不同类型数据进行加权融合。
通过对每个输入样本中每个模态进行注意力权重计算,并将其应用到深度神经网络中,可以更好地捕捉到不同模态之间的关联信息。
另一种方法是使用生成对抗网络(GAN)来进行多模态标签生成。
- 1 -NEOPAN 100 ACROS II is a medium-speed, ultrahigh-image- quality black-and-white negative film that boasts the world’s highest standard in grain quality among ISO-100 films, rich gradation and outstanding sharpness. These features make it an excellent choice for a wide range of photographic applica-tions, including portraits, landscape, architectural subjects, product photography, photomicrography, duplication work and astrophotography.● World’s Highest Standard in Grain QualityThrough the incorporation of Fujifilm’s new proprietary “Super Fine-Σ Grain Technology ”, this film delivers the world’s highest standard in grain quality among ISO-100 black-and-white films. Its fine grain, along with its superb grain alignment and rich gra-dation, makes possible smoother and sharper textural depiction, even in big enlargements.● Excellent Processing CharacteristicsBy incorporating the newly developed “P .I.D.C. (Precision Iodine Distribution Control) Technology”, NEOPAN 100 ACROS II pro-vides stable processing results not only during manual pro-cessing with all kinds of developers and fixers, but in every type of automatic processor as well.● Improved Reciprocity CharacteristicsThis film exhibits extremely minimal reduction in sensitivity even in extended, low-light exposures, thus producing excellent results in astronomical photography and night scenes, as well as archi-tecture and other subjects requiring long exposures.ISO100/21°Orthopanchromatic135……36-exp.

However, for ex-posures of 120 seconds or longer, provide the compensation indicated below. Exposure Time (sec.) 120 - 1000 Exposure Corrections*+1/2* A “+” followed by a number indicates the required increase in lens opening.● The use of an exposure meter is recommended, especially for indoor photography due to the wide variation in brightness levels that may be encountered. Use of a tripod or other means of stabilizing the camera is recommended for expo-sures at shutter speeds of less than 1/100 secondFlash Exposure ● Shutter SpeedWhen electronic flash exposures are to be made, the shutter speed for cameras with a focal-plane shutter should be set in accordance with the camera instructions. In the case of lens-shutter cameras (such as compact cameras, certain medium-format cameras and studio cameras), the shutter speed can be varied. ● Lens ApertureThe following formula can be used to obtain satisfactory lens opening.NEOPAN 100 ACROS II (135)NEOPAN 100 ACROS II (135)AF3-0258E- 2 -LensAperture = (f-number)Electronic Flash Guide Number (at ISO 100)Electronic Flash-to-Subject Distance(meters or feet)● When an automatic electronic flash unit is employed, set the film speed at ISO 100. Since the amount of light reflected onto subjects from surrounding surfaces will differ with the conditions, refer to the flash unit instructions.Filter RecommendationsWhen a filter is to be used, multiply the normal exposure by aproper filter factor using the table below as a guide.FilterFuji Filter SC-39 (UV) SC-48 (yellow) SC-56 (orange) SC-60 (red) Wratten FilterNo.1A No.8 No.21 No.25 FilterFactor Daylight 1.0 2.0 4.0 8.0 Tungsten1.01.53.06.0Handle the film in total darkness. If a safelight must be used, a Fuji Safelight Filter SLG -4* (dark green) with a20 watt bulb may be used at a distance not less than 1meter (3.3 ft.). In such cases, use the safelight for as short a period as possible and only towards the end of the development period.(1) DevelopmentTo prevent the appearance of development marks and as-sure uniform finish, agitate the developer continuously for the first minute and for five seconds every minute thereafter.● Development Conditions (Small Tank Development) The following table shows development times and tempera-tures for each developer.When deep tanks are used, development times should be extended by 5 to 10%, compared to those used with small tanks.* EI (Exposure Index) is the exposure determination designator and thecamera or exposure meter ISO speed should be set to this value.** The (1:1) parenthesized ratio given in the foregoing table indicates thatone part water is to be added to one part developer.(2) Stop BathFor the stop bath a 1.5 % acetic acid solution is recommended. Immerse the film in the bath at 15 to 25°C (59 to 77°F) for 20 to 30 seconds while agitating.(3) FixingFujifix Super-L is recommended for fixing. The recommended fixing times at 15 to 25°C (59 to 77°F) are shown below. The required fixing time is twice the time it takes for the film to be-come clear. In order to maintain fixing uniformity and prevent film staining, agitate the fixing solution continuously for the first 30 seconds.(4) WashingWash the film in running water for 20 to 30 minutes. The use of Fuji QW (quick washing agent) is recommended when a shorter washing time is desired or when the processed film shows a slight reddish purple cast. When using Fuji QW, pre-wash the film for about 30 seconds, immerse it in Fuji QW solution for 1 minute, and wash it in running water for 5 minutes. The required wash water temperature is 15 to 25°C (59 to 77°F).(5) DryingAfter washing, wipe both sides of the film very carefully with a soft sponge, then immerse it in a 1-to-200 solution of Fuji Driwel for 30 seconds and hang it up for uniform drying. For natural drying, hang the film in a well-ventilated dust free location. To protect important negatives from oxidizing gases that cause color fading, it is recommended that the film be treated with Fuji Ag Guard. In this case, use Fuji Ag Guard instead of Fuji Driwel in the procedure.Development Conditions for Hanger-transport Type Processors* Created by adding DP PAPINAL C-S (Starter) to Minidol Fine R(Replenisher).** Since the final processing results are affected by such factors as theagitation and circulation conditions of the processor, it is recommended that test prints be made in order to determine the proper development time.- 3 -9.

GENERATING PROSODY BY SUPERPOSING MULTI-PARAMETRICOVERLAPPING CONTOURSBleicke Holm and Gérard BaillyInstitut de la Communication Parlée-CNRS/INPG/U346,avenue Félix Viallet,38031Grenoble Cedex1,FranceABSTRACTWe present here a model for generating prosody by superposing overlapping multi-parametric contours.These contours are as-sociated with high-level communication tasks such as segmenta-tion,hierarchisation or emphasis of discourse units.We propose a analysis-by-synthesis scheme for automatically learning these contours and apply this new paradigm to the enunciation of math-ematical formulae and utterances carrying various attitudes.1.INTRODUCTIONIt is a commonly accepted that prosody takes part in the transmis-sion of linguistic information during the speech act.One of the most studied linguistic functions that prosody assumes is hierar-chisation and segmentation of units.If there is a large consensus in literature concerning the major role of prosody in language ac-quisition and structuring of speech,authors diverge on the way prosody actually encodes information.In the framework of au-tomatic prosody generation the aim is to establish an acceptable evolution of prosodic parameters depending on the structure of the utterance.The major questions to answer are:What information is transmitted?–and:How is this information encoded? Encoding linguistic information–supposed to be discrete–by means of continuously varying prosodic parameters is described by a large variety of approaches.In most cases a phonological interface is used that aims to translate linguistic structure in a phonological structure by organising salient prosodic events into tonal and accentual structures.This step of phonological transfer is followed by the generation of the prosodic continuum thanks to a specific phonetic model.Phonological units.Automatic generation systems may be differ-entiated by means of the richness of the phonological structures they employ:Black and Hunt[3]use the ToBI-transcription[13], Di Christo et al.IntSyn[7]–whereas other authors prefer a more economic description of the phonological structure mainly in terms of accentual groups[15,9,10].This last group of studies is very heterogeneous:Malfrère et al.[9]use a crude segmenta-tion and indexing procedure concentrating on an elegant concate-nation of contours,whereas Pasdeloup[12]focusses on establish-ing a well suited segmentation into accentual groups.Phonetic Models.Differences in the phonetic models are partly induced by the differences in phonological models:If the phono-logical description allows a determination of target points,a sim-ple interpolation between these points may be sufficient[7].If the output of the phonological model consists in indexed do-mains,prosodic contours are generally obtained by concatenation and/or superposition of sub-contours living on the domains.Sub-contours maybe generated by various manners ranging from rule-based to statistical methods.Targets vs.Contours.Gating experiments seem to indicate that prosodic contours contain more information than a series of tar-get points.Our believe is that such targets(if they exist)are a secondary product of a more global and implicit process.Salient prosodic events may be used to describe specific prosodic real-isations and to compare natural and synthetic prosody,but they should not be at the basis of a model.An extreme example of such an implicit modelling is the work of Traber[15]who uses a neural network to map the information supposed to determine prosody directly to the phonetic realisation.The important con-tribution is not the use of a neural network,but the proposition of an encoding procedure on a sub-symbolic level.On the other hand,this model operates as a black box and hence provide no comprehensive inside on prosody at all.Linear vs.superpositional encoding.In order to communicate we have to be able to compose and decompose the information in the prosodic signal.If we reject the decomposition into target points for the reasons given above,we have to adopt another en-coding/decoding procedure.Since Fujisaki[5],superposition of contours has been widely used.Many models use at least two su-perposing levels:phrase and accentual group.Superposition may be very explicit as in Möbius et al.[10]or more implicit as in Black et al.[3]where accent realisations are expressed relative to a declination line.Following Thorsen[14],Aubergé[1]uses up to four levels.The main characteristic of her proposal is the pri-ority given to the functions that may be encoded by prosody and the direct process of phonetic encoding.The model we present here is inspired by Aubergé.We propose a straightened relation between functions and phonetic realisation which allows for a simple and comprehensive description of the encoding process that operates by superposing overlapping and nested contours that are coextensive to the discourse units con-cerned by the encoded function.This model is able to generate highly structured prosody since we do not impose a restriction on the number of superposed levels.An important part of this paper is the description of how to obtain from a learning corpus the con-tours to be superposed.We will show and discuss the application of the model on the enunciation of mathematical formulae(MF) and utterances carrying various attitudes–demonstrating that our model is compatible with the expansion of prosodic contours de-scribed by Morlec[11].2.ENUNCIATION OF MATHEMATICALFORMULAEOur corpus was established in order to study how prosody may encode dependency relations in an utterance.Read MF were cho-sen because they offer a deep syntactical structure and because they are–when spoken–often ambiguous,forcing thus speaker and listener to use prosodic cues.All formulae are algebraic equa-tions such as proposed in4th grade exercises.They involve classi-cal operations on2nd degree polynomials.The corpus was gener-ated automatically varying systematically the length and syntactic depth of constituents.We end up with157MF recorded by one male French speaker who was instructed not to use lexical struc-tural markers–such as"open parenthesis"–but to make use of prosody.As shown infigure1and more thoroughly analysed in[8],the prosodic structure of the spoken formulae is rich and deep.More-over,the height of a node in the performance tree(cf.Gros-jean[6])grows with the syntactic depth of the associate con-stituent which is in good correspondence with a superpositional model.(a)Syntax(b)PerformanceFigure1:Syntactic structure and performance structure of a for-mula3.DESCRIPTION OF THE MODELIn Aubergé’s[1]proposal every linguistic level generates,de-pending on its nature,function and length,a set of multipara-metric contours that are then concatenated and superposed.Mor-lec[11]proposed a modular connectionist model enabling a learn-ing of contours with less a priori assumptions and a thorough anal-ysis of movement expansion.This approach has been validated in analysis as well as synthesis.Nevertheless this morphological model suffers from two draw-backs:(a)it follows syntax too closely,i.e.contours are indexed by detailed and often redundant syntactic characteristics–and(b) even if the implementation by means of recurrent neural networks copes better with coarticulation phenomena as a simple concate-nation of contours[1,9],it looses the notion of a lexicon of con-tours indexed by linguistic functions.Our proposal aims to solve these problems by(a)establishing a real functional morphophonology–and(b)using a superposition of localised and overlapping contours.3.1.A functional morphophonologyWe suppose that prosody is part of an interacting system of lin-guistic agents that provide general functions.Some functions–such as encoding of attitudes and emotions–may be fulfilled by prosody in a more or less autonomous manner,others–such as segmentation and hierarchisation are accomplished more syner-getically.In this study we test the hypothesis that prosody is able to encode segmentation and hierarchy of adjacent discourse units by a contour that is coextensive with the two units and that is anchored at the frontier between these units.Hierarchy is en-coded by superposition of these localised contours that may over-lap and that may be nested.The number of nesting levels is not constrained.This type of encoding offers an attractive compro-mise between information spreading(needed to explain anticipa-tory phenomena)and information localisation(to that part of the utterance it is meant to act on).3.2.Learning of contoursIn order to get the model to work,the crucial problem is its inver-sion,i.e.the extraction of contours from a natural speech corpus. Inversion becomes possible if we impose several constraints:(1) a contour is determined by the function it encodes,(2)it does not depend on thehierarchical level it is applied to and(3)contour shapes depend only on their lengths(in terms of number of sylla-bles)and the position of the anchor point.For each linguistic function to be encoded there is one generation module in charge with providing the mapping from phonotactic input information to prosodic parameters(cf.fig.2).The modules are implemented as simple feed-forward neural networks–not in order to claim any neuromimetic properties but because they have proofed their ability to generate coherent contours with respect to the input information.Munit Ainput:unit B syllables:markerFigure2:Generation of a contour encoding the relation"M"be-tween two adjacent units.For each syllable the module provides based on a4-component input vector four prosodic parameters (three-targets and a lengthening factor that measures the de-viation of the syllable duration with respect to an expected dura-tion).Since each module may be used to generate contours on any hierarchical level,we cannot use a simple hierarchical learning scheme as done by Morlec.We propose an iterative analysis-by-synthesis method as follows(cf.fig.3):(1)generating synthetic contours with the modules in a preliminary state,(2)using the error of the predicted contours with respect to the observed ones in order to calculate a better set of contours for each module that (3)will be used as targets during a classical learning procedure for neural networks.–This scheme relies on two hypothesis:(a)The prediction error contains the information that is contained in nat-ural prosody but not(yet)captured by the contributing generation modules–and(b)the learning step(3)provides afilter capturing regularities within each target set,i.e.if a contribution of the pre-diction error is attributed to the"wrong"module,it should have no systematic relation to the associated input values and will thus beflattened in(3).Thisfilter property allows for a certain free-dom in the implementation of(2).The main constraint for"bet-ter"target contours is that their superposition equals the observed contour.The easiest way to do this is to divide for each syllable and for each prosodic parameter the error by the number of con-tributing contours and to add that to these contours.While this procedure provides a good approximation of the training corpus after a reasonable number of learning cycles,we can expect better generalisation properties if we impose further constraints during (2):Prototypical contours should be reasonable simple–this can be achieved byflattening the contributing contours before calcu-lating the preliminary prediction.Properties of the superposing contours may be used to weight the correction terms(reinforcing existing maxima e.g.).Knowledge about salient prosodic events associated with some function could be used to attribute a privi-lege to a contour in(2).Figure3:analysis-by-synthesis-scheme3.3.Enunciation of mathematical formulae The predominant role of prosody in the enunciation of MF is seg-mentation/hierarchisation,i.e.to signal the nesting of operators. There are two kind of operators in our corpus:unary ones(such as1see alsofigure6and explanation below of the preceding unit.A similar behaviour can be observed in the contours for the lengthening factor.RMS-errors and correlations for the-contours are given infigure4.We divided each corpus into two equally sized parts A and B.Training was performed ei-ther on the entire corpus(T)or on one of the parts.No effort has yet been put on the optimisation of the stop criterion which might explain the slight over-learning with the training set A.testT BT 2.02 2.071.85B 2.07 2.01(a)RMS-errortestT

training/test-configurationsThe strength of the proposed model is its ability to exploit the recursivity of the syntactic structure by using the same genera-tion modules on all hierarchical levels which is particularly effi-cient for the enunciation of MF.Nevertheless,it provides good prosody predictions when trained on ordinary speech corpora.In figure5we show an example for a French sentence uttered in four different attitudes(assertion,evidence,incredulity and yes/no-question).The RMS-errors show–as for the maths corpus–fairly good generalisation properties(e.g.training on A–test on B).Best scores are obtained for yes/no-questions due to the fact that the contours are ratherflat.Nevertheless,results for the intonationally more structured assertions are satisfying.Figure6 shows the movement expansion of the IQ-contours.Our observa-tions are fully compatible with Morlec[11].5.CONCLUSIONS AND OUTLOOK Compared to the prior work of Aubergé/Morlec the model pre-sented here offers several advantages:(1)It is now possible to exploit naturally the deep recursivity of dependency relations in the maths corpus–the model architecture does not depend any-more on the number of nesting levels aimed to capture.(2)The relation between linguistic functions to encode and the generation of contours is straightened–one module is charged to encode one function.The model offers thus a dynamic lexicon:contours are indexed by the linguistic function and generated dynamically in order tofit phonotactic needs.(3)Contours are localised where they are meant to act i.e.on the discourse units they relate.o c a z e d c o n t o u r ss u p e r p o s t o n /o r g n a (a)assertion (AS)(b)evidence (EV)(c)incredulity (IQ)(d)yes/no-question (QS)AS T B T 1.681.691.59B 1.81 1.64EV T B T

protocol aiming to compare different prosodic realisations with respect to the online processing of a listener.We will analyse the lag between natural vs synthetic speech and handwriting events in a
