Fleet Rebalancing for Expanding Shared e-Mobility Systems: A Multi-agent Deep Reinforcement Learning Approach

1 code implementation11 Nov 2022 Man Luo, Bowen Du, Wenzhe Zhang, Tianyou Song, Kun Li, HongMing Zhu, Mark Birkin, Hongkai Wen

This is particularly challenging in the context of expanding systems, because i) the range of the EVs is limited while charging time is typically long, which constrain the viable rebalancing operations; and ii) the EV stations in the system are dynamically changing, i. e., the legitimate targets for rebalancing operations can vary over time.

Improving Contrastive Learning with Model Augmentation

1 code implementation25 Mar 2022 Zhiwei Liu, Yongjun Chen, Jia Li, Man Luo, Philip S. Yu, Caiming Xiong

However, existing methods all construct views by adopting augmentation from data perspectives, while we argue that 1) optimal data augmentation methods are hard to devise, 2) data augmentation methods destroy sequential correlations, and 3) data augmentation fails to incorporate comprehensive self-supervised signals.

Choose Your QA Model Wisely: A Systematic Study of Generative and Extractive Readers for Question Answering

no code implementations SpaNLP (ACL) 2022 Man Luo, Kazuma Hashimoto, Semih Yavuz, Zhiwei Liu, Chitta Baral, Yingbo Zhou

Among several interesting findings, it is important to highlight that (1) the generative readers perform better in long context QA, (2) the extractive readers perform better in short context while also showing better out-of-domain generalization, and (3) the encoder of encoder-decoder PrLMs (e. g., T5) turns out to be a strong extractive reader and outperforms the standard choice of encoder-only PrLMs (e. g., RoBERTa).

A Simple Approach to Jointly Rank Passages and Select Relevant Sentences in the OBQA Context

no code implementations NAACL (ACL) 2022 Man Luo, Shuguang Chen, Chitta Baral

Furthermore, we propose consistency and similarity constraints to promote the correlation and interaction between passage ranking and sentence selection. The experiments demonstrate that our framework can achieve competitive results with previous systems and outperform the baseline by 28\% in terms of exact matching of relevant sentences on the HotpotQA dataset.
