The 36th conference on Neural Information Processing Systems (NeurIPS) will be held in New Orleans from November 28th to December 9th.
Our group will be presenting an interesting paper entitled “Bayesian Active Learning with Fully Bayesian Gaussian Processes“. In this paper, we exploit the bias-variance trade-off inherent in a Gaussian process’ hyperparameters to design two new active learning acquisition functions: Bayesian Query-by-Committee and Query-by Mixture of Gaussian Processes. For six simulators, we improve the active learning performance by 12%! We will use these insights to efficiently analyze the effects of policies in traffic simulators, leading to greener aviation traffic 🌱✈.

Five members of our MLSM group attended the 26th Trafikdage annual conference on traffic and transport in Aalborg, Denmark from 22-23 August 2022. Francisco Camara Pereira organized an executive session titled “AI in modelling and managing traffic” to review some of the latest developments in AI, modeling and traffic management, but also contrast with existing “classical” approaches. During the session, Filipe Rodrigues had a talk titled “Machine learning approaches for transport predictions problems: are we making progress in the right direction? ” where he discussed the importance of stationarity, strong baselines and benchmarks in transport prediction problems (Click here for the slides). In addition, our team presented/co-authored four interesting papers. Check out below for the full list of papers including the slides.
