Differentiable Multi-Agent Actor-Critic for Multi-Step Radiology Report Summarization
The IMPRESSIONS section of a radiology report about an imaging study is a summary of the radiologist's reasoning and conclusions, and it also aids the referring physician in confirming or excluding certain diagnoses. A cascade of tasks are required to automatically generate an abstractive summary of the typical information-rich radiology report. These tasks include acquisition of salient content from the report and generation of a concise, easily consumable IMPRESSIONS section. Prior research on radiology report summarization has focused on single-step end-to-end models -- which subsume the task of salient content acquisition. To fully explore the cascade structure and explainability of radiology report summarization, we introduce two innovations. First, we design a two-step approach: extractive summarization followed by abstractive summarization. Second, we additionally break down the extractive part into two independent tasks: extraction of salient (1) sentences and (2) keywords. Experiments on English radiology reports from two clinical sites show our novel approach leads to a more precise summary compared to single-step and to two-step-with-single-extractive-process baselines with an overall improvement in F1 score Of 3-4%.

Merging model-based control with multi-agent reinforcement learning for multi-agent cooperative teaming strategies
In this work, we propose a framework that combines multi-agent reinforcement learning (MARL) with model-based control to achieve safe, dynamically feasible actions in cooperative multi-agent tasks. Multi-agent reinforcem…
Multi-agent Reinforcement LearningLearning responsibility allocations for multi-agent interactions: A differentiable optimization approach with control barrier functions
From autonomous driving to package delivery, ensuring safe yet efficient multi-agent interaction is challenging as the interaction dynamics are influenced by hard-to-model factors such as social norms and contextual cues…
Autonomous DrivingA Differentiable Model for Optimizing the Genetic Drivers of Synaptogenesis
There is a growing consensus among neuroscientists that many neural circuits critical for survival result from a process of genomic decompression, hence are constructed based on the information contained within the genom…
SACHA: Soft Actor-Critic with Heuristic-Based Attention for Partially Observable Multi-Agent Path Finding
Multi-Agent Path Finding (MAPF) is a crucial component for many large-scale robotic systems, where agents must plan their collision-free paths to their given goal positions. Recently, multi-agent reinforcement learning h…
