RoadRunner: Improving the Precision of Road Network Inference from GPS Trajectories
  • Big Data
  • Transportation

Current approaches to construct road network maps from GPS trajectories suffer from low precision, especially in dense urban areas and in regions with complex topologies such as overpasses and underpasses, parallel roads, and stacked roads. This paper proposes a two-stage method to improve precision without sacrificing recall (coverage).

Reconstructing Probabilistic Trees of Cellular Differentiation from Single-Cell RNA-Seq Data
  • Computational Biology

Thanks to technological advances, we can now profile gene expression across thousands or millions of individual cells in parallel. This new type of data has led to the intriguing discovery that individual cell profiles can reflect the imprint of time or dynamic processes.

Deep Sequential Models for Sampling-Based Planning
  • AI & Machine Learning
  • Algorithms & Theory
  • Robotics
  • Transportation

We demonstrate how a sequence model and a sampling-based planner can influence each other to produce efficient plans and how such a model can automatically learn to take advantage of observations of the environment.
