[Q]: In this paper, we present a multimodal Recurrent Neural Network (m-RNN) model for generating novel image captions. It directly models the probability distribution of generating a word given previous words and an image. Image captions are generated according to this distribution. The model consists of two sub-networks: a deep recurrent neural network for sentences and a deep convolutional network for images. These two sub-networks interact with each other in a multimodal layer to form the whole m-RNN model. The effectiveness of our model is validated on four benchmark datasets (IAPR TC-12, Flickr 8K, Flickr 30K and MS COCO). Our model outperforms the state-of-the-art methods. In addition, we apply the m-RNN model to retrieval tasks for retrieving images or sentences, and achieves significant performance improvement over the state-of-the-art methods which directly optimize the ranking objective function for retrieval.

[Q]: Robot warehouse automation has attracted significant interest in recent years, perhaps most visibly in the Amazon Picking Challenge (APC) [1]. A fully autonomous warehouse pick-and-place system requires robust vision that reliably recognizes and locates objects amid cluttered environments, self-occlusions, sensor noise, and a large variety of objects. In this paper we present an approach that leverages multiview RGB-D data and self-supervised, data-driven learning to overcome those difficulties. The approach was part of the MITPrinceton Team system that took 3rdand 4thplace in the stowing and picking tasks, respectively at APC 2016. In the proposed approach, we segment and label multiple views of a scene with a fully convolutional neural network, and then fit pre-scanned 3D object models to the resulting segmentation to get the 6D object pose. Training a deep neural network for segmentation typically requires a large amount of training data. We propose a self-supervised method to generate a large labeled dataset without tedious manual segmentation. We demonstrate that our system can reliably estimate the 6D pose of objects under a variety of scenarios. All code, data, and benchmarks are available at http://www.cs.princeton.edu/∼andyz/apc2016.

[Q]: Two types of low cost-per-iteration gradient descent methods have been extensively studied in parallel. One is online or stochastic gradient descent ( OGD/SGD), and the other is randomzied coordinate descent (RBCD). In this paper, for the first time, we combine the two types of methods together and propose online randomized block coordinate descent (ORBCD). At each iteration, ORBCD only computes the partial gradient of one block coordinate of one mini-batch samples. ORBCD is well suited for the composite minimization problem where one function is the average of the losses of a large number of samples and the other is a simple regularizer defined on high dimensional variables. We show that the iteration complexity of ORBCD has the same order as OGD or SGD. For strongly convex functions, by reducing the variance of stochastic gradients, we show that ORBCD can converge at a geometric rate in expectation, matching the convergence rate of SGD with variance reduction and RBCD.
