Medium GrooveSquid.com (original content) Medium Difficulty Summary
This paper introduces Active Representation Learning (ARL), a new class of problems combining exploration and representation learning within partially observable environments. Building on ideas from Active Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (active SLAM), the authors apply these concepts to scientific discovery problems, specifically adaptive microscopy. The goal is to develop a framework that derives exploration skills from actionable representations, enhancing data collection and model building efficiency in natural sciences.
Low GrooveSquid.com (original content) Low Difficulty Summary
This paper creates a new way of learning representations by combining exploration and representation learning together. It’s like using a map to find the best places to take pictures with a microscope! The authors use ideas from another field called active SLAM and apply them to scientific discovery, making it easier and more efficient to collect data and build models.
