Our aim is to determine the length and memory quota for an MSLP for the Bruhat decomposition of an arbitrary matrix g∈SL⁢(d,q)𝑔SL𝑑𝑞g\in\textnormal{SL}(d,q)italic_g ∈ SL ( italic_d , italic_q ) via the above method, with the matrices u1subscript𝑢1u_{1}italic_u start_POSTSUBSCRIPT 1 end_POSTSUBSCRIPT, u2subscript𝑢2u...
Note that a small variation of these standard generators for SL⁢(d,q)SL𝑑𝑞\textnormal{SL}(d,q)SL ( italic_d , italic_q ) are used in Magma [14] as well as in algorithms to verify presentations of classical groups, see [12], where only the generator v𝑣vitalic_v is slightly different in the two scenarios when d𝑑ditali...

To show the existence and uniqueness of solutions for (21), we proceed by parts. The existence of solution for the first equation follows from Lemma LABEL:l:lrmsystem. Solving the second equation is equivalent to (22), and such system is well-posed due to the coercivity of (⋅,T⋅)∂𝒯H(\cdot,T\cdot)_{{\partial\mathcal{T}...
The key to approximate (25) is the exponential decay of P⁢w𝑃𝑤Pwitalic_P italic_w, as long as w∈H1⁢(𝒯H)𝑤superscript𝐻1subscript𝒯𝐻w\in{H^{1}({\mathcal{T}_{H}})}italic_w ∈ italic_H start_POSTSUPERSCRIPT 1 end_POSTSUPERSCRIPT ( caligraphic_T start_POSTSUBSCRIPT italic_H end_POSTSUBSCRIPT ) has local support. That al...
It is essential for the performing method that the static condensation is done efficiently. The solutions of (22) decay exponentially fast if w𝑤witalic_w has local support, so instead of solving the problems in the whole domain it would be reasonable to solve it locally using patches of elements. We note that the ide...

We remark that the previously best known algorithms for finding the minimum area / perimeter all-flush triangle take nearly linear time [6, 1, 2, 3, 23], that is, O⁢(n⁢log⁡n)𝑂𝑛𝑛O(n\log n)italic_O ( italic_n roman_log italic_n ) or O⁢(n⁢log2⁡n)𝑂𝑛superscript2𝑛O(n\log^{2}n)italic_O ( italic_n roman_log start_POSTSUP...

The inclusion / circumscribing problems usually admit the property that the set of locally optimal solutions are pairwise interleaving [6].

For analyzing the employed features, we rank them by importances using RF (see 3). The best feature is related to sentiment polarity scores. There is a big difference between the sentiment associated to rumors and the sentiment associated to real events in relevant tweets. In specific, the average polarity score of new...
at an early stage. Our fully automatic, cascading rumor detection method follows the idea on focusing on early rumor signals on text contents; which is the most reliable source before the rumors widely spread. Specifically, we learn a more complex representation of single tweets using Convolutional Neural Networks, tha...
It has to be noted here that even though we obtain reasonable results on the classification task in general, the prediction performance varies considerably along the time dimension. This is understandable, since tweets become more distinguishable, only when the user gains more knowledge about the event.
CrowdWisdom: Similar to [18], the core idea is to leverage the public’s common sense for rumor detection: If there are more people denying or doubting the truth of an event, this event is more likely to be a rumor. For this purpose,  [18] use an extensive list of bipolar sentiments with a set of combinational rules. In...
We observe that at certain points in time, the volume of rumor-related tweets (for sub-events) in the event stream surges. This can lead to false positives for techniques that model events as the aggregation of all tweet contents; that is undesired at critical moments. We trade-off this by debunking at single tweet le...

The convergence of the direction of gradient descent updates to the maximum L2subscript𝐿2L_{2}italic_L start_POSTSUBSCRIPT 2 end_POSTSUBSCRIPT margin solution, however is very slow compared to the convergence of training loss, which explains why it is worthwhile continuing to optimize long after we have zero training ...
We should not rely on plateauing of the training loss or on the loss (logistic or exp or cross-entropy) evaluated on a validation data, as measures to decide when to stop. Instead, we should look at the 00–1111 error on the validation dataset. We might improve the validation and test errors even when when the decrease ...

The follow-up paper (Gunasekar et al., 2018) studied this same problem with exponential loss instead of squared loss.

Notably, even though the logistic loss and the exp-loss behave very different on non-separable problems, they exhibit the same behaviour for separable problems.

We use the same dataset described in Section 4.1. In total –after cutting off 180 events for pre-training single tweet model – our dataset contains 360 events and 180 of them are labeled as rumors. As a rumor is often of a long circurlating story (friggeri2014rumor, ), this results in a rather long time span. In this w...
To construct the training dataset, we collected rumor stories from the rumor tracking websites snopes.com and urbanlegends.about.com. In more detail, we crawled 4300 stories from these websites. From the story descriptions we manually constructed queries to retrieve the relevant tweets for the 270 rumors with highest i...
Training data for single tweet classification. An event might include sub-events for which relevant tweets are rumorous. To deal with this complexity, we train our single-tweet learning model only with manually selected breaking and subless events from the above dataset. In the end, we used 90 rumors and 90 news assoc...
The time period of a rumor event is sometimes fuzzy and hard to define. One reason is a rumor may have been triggered for a long time and kept existing, but it did not attract public attention. However it can be triggered by other events after a uncertain time and suddenly spreads as a bursty event. E.g., a rumor999htt...

We further investigate the identification of event time, that is learned on top of the event-type classification.

RL [Sutton and Barto, 1998] has been successfully applied to a variety of domains, from Monte Carlo tree search [Bai et al., 2013] and hyperparameter tuning for complex optimization in science, engineering and machine learning problems [Kandasamy et al., 2018; Urteaga et al., 2023],

Likewise, the daily number of measurements taken for carbohydrate intake, blood glucose level and insulin units vary across the patients. The median number of carbohydrate log entries vary between 2 per day for patient 10 and 5 per day for patient 14.
Median number of blood glucose measurements per day varies between 2 and 7. Similarly, insulin is used on average between 3 and 6 times per day. In terms of physical activity, we measure the 10 minute intervals with at least 10 steps tracked by the google fit app.
Likewise, the daily number of measurements taken for carbohydrate intake, blood glucose level and insulin units vary across the patients. The median number of carbohydrate log entries vary between 2 per day for patient 10 and 5 per day for patient 14.
The insulin intakes tend to be more in the evening, when basal insulin is used by most of the patients. The only difference happens to patient 10 and 12 whose intakes are earlier at day. Further, patient 12 takse approx. 3 times the average insulin dose of others in the morning.
These are also the patients who log glucose most often, 5 to 7 times per day on average compared to 2-4 times for the other patients. For patients with 3-4 measurements per day (patients 8, 10, 11, 14, and 17) at least a part of the glucose measuremtents after the meals is within this range, while patient 12 has only t...

Stimuli of CAT2000 additionally fall into predefined categories such as Action, Fractal, Object, or Social. Together with the corresponding fixation patterns, they constituted the input and ...
To assess the predictive performance for eye tracking measurements, the MIT saliency benchmark Bylinskii et al. (2015) is commonly used to compare model results on two test datasets with respect to prior work. Final scores can then be submitted on a public leaderboard to allow fair model ranking on eight evaluation met...
We normalized the model output such that all values are non-negative with unit sum. The estimation of saliency maps can hence be regarded as a probability distribution prediction task as formulated by Jetley et al. (2016). To determine the difference between an estimated and a target distribution, the Kullback-Leibler ...
Various measures are used in the literature and by benchmarks to evaluate the performance of fixation models. In practice, results are typically reported for all of them to include different notions about saliency and allow a fair comparison of model predictions Kümmerer et al. (2018); Riche et al. (2013).

In this work, we have answered several open questions about the string parameter of the locality number. Our main tool was to relate the locality number to the graph parameters cutwidth and pathwidth via suitable reductions. As an additional result, our reductions also pointed out an interesting relationship between th...
The main results are presented in Sections 4, 5 and 6. First, in Section 4, we present the reductions from Loc to Cutwidth and vice versa, and we discuss the consequences of these reductions. Then, in Section 5, we show how Loc can be reduced to Pathwidth, which yields an approximation algorithm for computing the local...
In this section, we introduce polynomial-time reductions from the problem of computing the locality number of a word to the problem of computing the cutwidth of a graph, and vice versa. This establishes a close relationship between these two problems (and their corresponding parameters), which lets us derive several u...
Many existing algorithms constructing path decompositions are of theoretical interest only, and this disadvantage carries over to the possible algorithms computing the locality number or cutwidth (see Section 6) based on them. However, the reduction of 5.7 is also applicable in a purely practical scenario, since any ki...
While our focus is on theoretical results in form of lower and upper complexity bounds, we stress here that the reductions may also be of practical interest, since they allow to transform any practical pathwidth or cutwidth algorithm into a practical algorithm for computing the locality number (or to transform a pract...

Every ROI was identified using a combination of three CNNs, each analyzing one orthogonal image plane. While a single CNN predicted the presence of a specific ROI in the given plane, the combination of their results provided a 3D bounding box around it.
Using a set of handcrafted image features together with features derived from a pretrained VGGnet with five layers, they build a classification scheme to map a given CT slice to the relevant level. Each feature group was used to train a separate SVM classifier and predicted labels are then combined in a linear model, a...
Patients were assigned to one of five standard cardiovascular risk categories based on the Agatston score. Authors from the same group created a method[232] for the detection of calcifications in low-dose chest CT using a CNN for anatomical location and another CNN for calcification detection.

While SimPLe is able to learn more quickly than model-free methods, it does have limitations. First, the final scores are on the whole lower than the best state-of-the-art model-free methods.

In this paper our focus was to demonstrate the capability and generality of SimPLe only across a suite of Atari games, however, we believe similar methods can be applied to other environments and tasks which is one of our main directions for future work. As a long-term challenge, we believe that model-based reinforcem...
Human players can learn to play Atari games in minutes (Tsividis et al., 2017).

A high level overview of these combined methods is shown in Fig. 1. Although we choose the EEG epileptic seizure recognition dataset from University of California, Irvine (UCI) [13] for EEG classification, the implications of this study could be generalized in any kind of signal classification problem.
For the CNN modules with one and two layers, xisubscript𝑥𝑖x_{i}italic_x start_POSTSUBSCRIPT italic_i end_POSTSUBSCRIPT is converted to an image using learnable parameters instead of some static procedure. The one layer module consists of one 1D convolutional layer (kernel sizes of 3333 with 8888 channels).
The two layer module consists of two 1D convolutional layers (kernel sizes of 3333 with 8888 and 16161616 channels) with the first layer followed by a ReLU activation function and a 1D max pooling operation (kernel size of 2222). The feature maps of the last convolutional layer for both modules are then concatenated al...

Furthermore, we show an interesting difference between the standard advice model and the model we introduce: in the former, an advice bit can be at least as powerful as a random bit, since an advice bit can effectively simulate any efficient choice of a random bit. In contrast, we show that in our model, there are situ...
In this work we focus on the online computation with advice. Our motivation stems from observing that, unlike the real world, the advice under the known models is often closer to “fiat” than “recommendation”. Our objective is to propose a model which allows the possibility of incorrect advice, with the objective of ob...
We begin in Section 2 with a simple, yet illustrative online problem as a case study, namely the ski rental problem. Here, we give a Pareto-optimal algorithm with only one bit of advice. We also show that this algorithm is Pareto-optimal even in the space of all (deterministic) algorithms with advice of any size.
All the above results pertain to deterministic online algorithms. In Section 6, we study the power of randomization in online computation with untrusted advice. First, we show that the randomized algorithm of Purohit et al. [29] for the ski rental problem Pareto-dominates any deterministic algorithm, even when the lat...
While our work addresses issues similar to [24] and [29], in that trusted advice is related to consistency whereas untrusted advice is related to robustness, it differs in two significant aspects: First, our ideal objective is to identify an optimal family of algorithms, and we show that in some cases (ski rental, onli...

In the large-scale UAV ad-hoc networks, the number of UAVs is another feature that should be investigated. Since the demanding channel’s capacity should not be more than the channel’s size we provide, we limit the number of UAVs in the tolerance range which satisfies that each UAV’s channel selection is contented. In t...
Since the UAV ad-hoc network game is a special type of potential game, we can apply the properties of the potential game in the later analysis. Some algorithms that have been applied in the potential game can also be employed in the UAV ad-hoc network game. In the next section, we investigate the existing algorithm wit...
Fig. 12 shows how the number of UAVs affect the computation complexity of SPBLLA. Since the total number of UAVs is diverse, the goal functions are different.

Deep neural networks are the state of the art learning models used in artificial intelligence. The large number of parameters in neural networks make them very good at modelling and approximating any arbitrary function. However the larger number of parameters also make them particularly prone to over-fitting, requirin...
It’s the original Dropout method. It was introduced in 2012. Standard Dropout provides a simple technique for avoiding over-fitting in fully connected neural networks[12]. During each training phase, each neuron is excluded from the network with a probability p. Once trained, in the testing phase the full network is u...
The results in Figure 3 show that using DQN with different Dropout methods result in better-preforming policies and less variability as the reduced standard deviation between the variants indicate to. In table 1, Wilcoxon Sign-Ranked test was used to analyze the effect of Variance before applying Dropout (DQN) and aft...

In graphs that are close to be bipartite or, in general, that have a very sparse and regular connectivity, a large percentage of edges can be cut if the nodes are partitioned correctly. Indeed, for these graphs the MAXCUT is usually large and is closer to the upper-bound in (11).

Additionally, the experiment shows that the training is very robust to overfitting even when the number of parameters in the network increases. When combining the generated data and original data, the accuracy on Car and Covertype improves with an increasing number of training examples.

A variety of network architectures with different depths, widths, and additional layers such as Dropout have been studied. In this work, we focus on two-hidden-layer...
NRFI with and without the original data is shown for different network architectures. The smallest architecture has 2222 neurons in both hidden layers and the largest 128128128128.

Overall, the experiment shows that the accuracy increases with an increasing number of neurons in both layers and NRFI is robust to different network architectures. NRFI is capable of generating a large variety of unique examples from random forests which have been initially trained on a limited amount of data.

Coupled with powerful function approximators such as neural networks, policy optimization plays a key role in the tremendous empirical successes of deep reinforcement learning (Silver et al., 2016, 2017; Duan et al., 2016; OpenAI, 2019; Wang et al., 2018).

Liu et al. (2019b) have replicated several experiments of pruning approaches (see Section 3.2) and they observed that the typical workflow of training, pruning, and fine-tuning is often not necessary and only the discovered sparsity structure is important. In particular, they show for several pruning approaches that ra...
By injecting additive noise to the deterministic weights before rounding, one can compute probabilities of the weights being rounded to specific values in a predefined discrete set. Subsequently, these probabilities are used to differentiably round the weights using the Gumbel-softmax approximation (Jang et al., 2017).
They introduce a mixture of log-uniform priors whose mixtures are centered at predefined quantization values. Consequently, the approximate posterior also concentrates at these values such that weights can be safely quantized without requiring a fine-tuning procedure.
At forward propagation, the weights are stochastically quantized to either binary weights w∈{−1,1}𝑤11w\in\{-1,1\}italic_w ∈ { - 1 , 1 } or ternary weights w∈{−1,0,1}𝑤101w\in\{-1,0,1\}italic_w ∈ { - 1 , 0 , 1 } to remove the need for multiplications at all. During backpropagation, inputs and hidden neurons are quantiz...

In [64], Liu studies the mapping properties of the filling radius. His results can be interpreted as providing certain guarantees for how the filling radius changes under multiplicative distortion of metrics. Here we study the effect of additive distortion.

In this section, we recall the notions of spread and filling radius, as well as their relationship. In particular, we prove a number of statements about the filling radius of a closed connected manifold. Moreover, we consider a generalization of the filling radius and also define a strong notion of filling radius whic...

When she looks at the main view again, one thing catches her eye: there is quite a difference in density between the two large clusters of points (as shown by the points’ colors in Figure 6(c)).

The crucial decision in differential vector movement is how the differential vector (namely, the intensity and direction of the movement) is calculated.

Algorithms within this category do not resort to representative solutions of the entire population (such as the current best), but they only consider solutions of a subset or group of the solutions in the population. When the differential movement considers both a group and a representative of all the population, the ...
This category is further divided into subcategories as a function of the above decision, i.e. which solutions are considered to create the movement vector. It should be noted that some algorithms can be classified into more than one subcategory. For instance, a particle’s update in the PSO solver is affected by the glo...
In this group (the most populated in this second taxonomy), the different movement of each solution is only influenced by a small group of representative solutions.

In this solver, each solution or particle is guided by the global current best solution and the best soluti...

Network embedding is a fundamental task for graph type data such as recommendation systems, social networks, etc. The goal is to map nodes of a given graph into latent features (namely embedding) such that the learned embedding can be utilized on node classification, node clustering, and link prediction.

The connectivity distributions given by the generative perspective also inspires us to devise a novel architecture for dec...

For both BLEU and C Score, Jac Score is around 1 in each cluster, which means the persona descriptions are not similar. The dialogue quantity also seems similar among different clusters. So we can conclude that data quantity and task profile does not have a major impact on the fine-tuning process.
To answer RQ1, we compare the changing trend of the general language model and the task-specific adaptation ability during the training of MAML to find whether there is a trade-off problem.

Data Quantity. In Persona, we evaluate Transformer/CNN, Transformer/CNN-F and MAML on 3 data quantity settings: 50/100/120-shot (each task has 50, 100, 120 utterances on average).

The key to our analysis is a mean-field perspective, which allows us to associate the evolution of a finite-dimensional parameter with its limiting counterpart over an infinite-dimensional Wasserstein space (Villani, 2003, 2008; Ambrosio et al., 2008; Ambrosio and Gigli, 2013). Specifically, by exploiting the permutati...
To address such an issue of divergence, nonlinear gradient TD (Bhatnagar et al., 2009) explicitly linearizes the value function approximator locally at each iteration, that is, using its gradient with respect to the parameter as an evolving feature representation.

We don’t use training tricks such as warm-up [7]. We adopt the linear learning rate decay strategy as default in the Transformers framework. Table 5 shows the test accuracy results of the methods with different batch sizes. SNGM achieves the best performance for almost all batch size settings.

Therefore, alternative interpolation schemes with better numerical condition and lower computational complexity are desirable. While previous approaches to addressing this problem relied on tensorial interpolation schemes [33, 48, 59, 75], we here propose a different approach.
Though, approximations of lower accuracy might be reached faster then by polynomial interpolation, this makes these approaches incapable for answering Question 1 when higher-precision approximations are required. The multivariate polynomial interpolation method presented here reaches this goal.

The NOT gate can be operated in a logic-negative operation through one ‘twisting’ as in a 4-pin. To be exact, the position of the middle ground pin is fixed and is a structural transformation that changes the position of the remaining two true and false pins.
The structural computer used an inverted signal pair to implement the reversal of a signal (NOT operation) as a structural transformation, i.e. a twist, and four pins were used for AND and OR operations as a series and parallel connection were required.

Consensus protocols form an important field of research that has a strong connection with Markov chains [18]. Consensus protocols are a set of rules used in distributed systems to achieve agreement among a group of agents on the value of a variable [19, 20, 21, 22].
Consensus protocols, in contrast to Markov chains, operate without the limitations of non-negative nodes and edges or the requirement for the sum of nodes to equal one [18]. This broader scope enables consensus protocols to address a significantly wider range of problem spaces. Therefore, there is a significant interes...
Markov chains and consensus protocols share a close relationship. The rich theory of Markov chains has proven to be valuable in analyzing specific consensus protocols. Notable works such as [23, 24, 25, 26] have leveraged Markov chain theory to provide insights and analysis for consensus protocols.
There are comprehensive survey papers that review the research on consensus protocols [19, 20, 21, 22]. In many scenarios, the network topology of the consensus protocol is a switching topology due to failures, formation reconfiguration, or state-dependence. There is a large number of papers that propose consensus prot...

Other learning methods rely on a given template for each class [25] or local neighbourhood encoding to learn a compact representation [39]. The recently conducted SHREC correspondence contest on isometric and non-isometric 3D shapes [20] revealed that there is still room for improvement in both fields.
Although multi-matchings obtained by synchronisation procedures are cycle-consistent, the matchings are often spatially non-smooth and noisy, as we illustrate in Sec. 5. From a theoretical point of view, the most appropriate approach for addressing multi-shape matching is based on a unified formulation, where cycle con...
A shortcoming when applying the mentioned multi-shape matching approaches to isometric settings is that they do not exploit structural properties of isometric shapes. Hence, they lead to suboptimal multi-matchings, which we experimentally confirm in Sec. 5. One exception is the recent work on spectral map synchronisati...
There are various works that particularly target the matching of multiple shapes. In [30, 32], semidefinite programming relaxations are proposed for the multi-shape matching problem. However, due to the employed lifting strategy, which drastically increases the number of variables, these methods are not scalable to lar...
The multi-matching problem is relatively well-studied for generic settings, e.g. for matching multiple graphs [79, 78, 65, 6, 69, 77], or matching keypoints in image collections [76, 72, 42]. A desirable property of multi-matchings is cycle consistency (which we will formally define in Sec. 3.1).

Secondly, even for a specific task, the received rewards and observations are uncertain to the agent, as illustrated in Fig. 1, which make the policy learning unstable and non-convergent.

We proposed a decentralized method for saddle point problems based on non-Euclidean Mirror-Prox algorithm. Our reformulation is built upon moving the consensus constraints into the problem by adding Lagrangian multipliers. As a result, we get a common saddle point problem that includes both primal and dual variables. ...

Different classes of cycle bases can be considered. In [6] the authors characterize them in terms of their corresponding cycle matrices and present a Venn diagram that shows their inclusion relations. Among these classes we can find the strictly fundamental class.
The length of a cycle is its number of edges. The minimum cycle basis (MCB) problem is the problem of finding a cycle basis such that the sum of the lengths (or edge weights) of its cycles is minimum. This problem was formulated by Stepanec [7] and Zykov [8] for general graphs and by Hubicka and Syslo [9] in the stric...

In the introduction of this article we mentioned that the MSTCI problem is a particular case of finding a cycle basis with sparsest cycle intersection matrix. Another possible analysis would be to consider this in the context of the cycle basis classes described in [6].

Visual support for the task of feature subset selection requires displaying information on different levels of granularity; highly detailed views are not optimal because they do not scale well with many features.

Existing datasets for assessing bias mitigation methods do not enable analysis of multiple bias sources, e.g., Colored MNIST only tests for color versus class bias. To address this, we created the Biased MNIST dataset, which requires recognizing digits while remaining robust to multiple sources of biases i.e., other fa...

For this, we plot improvement over the standard model (I⁢O⁢S⁢M𝐼𝑂𝑆𝑀IOSMitalic_I italic_O italic_S italic_M) in Fig. 5, which is the accuracy gain over the standard model on each dataset group.

For example, in systems trained to infer hair color on the CelebA dataset [43], the majority group of non-blond males occurs 50505050 times more than the minority group of blond males, resulting in systems incorrectly predicting non-blond as hair color for the minority group.
CelebA. We show accuracy for each group of CelebA in Table. A3. SD and GDRO obtain the highest accuracies. As discussed previously, we observe trade-offs between blond and non-blond classes with the improvements in the rare blond class incurring degradations in the non-blond class.
The CelebA dataset [43] of celebrity faces is widely used to assess bias mitigation techniques [55, 56, 46, 50]. Following earlier work, it is used for binary hair color classification (blond or non-blond), which is correlated with gender. There are two major bias sources: a) class imbalance, with non-blond occurring ...

2) A robust regression function to learn the mappings from appearance feature to human gaze. It is non-trivial to map the high-dimensional eye appearance to the low-dimensional gaze.

Figure 1: Deep learning-based gaze estimation relies on simple devices but complex algorithms to estimate human gaze. It usually uses off-the-shelf cameras to capture facial appearance, and employs deep learning algorithms to regress gaze from the appearance. According to this pipeline, we survey current deep learning-...
In this paper, we provide a systematic review of appearance-based gaze estimation methods using deep learning algorithms. As shown in Fig. 1, we discuss these methods from four perspectives: 1) deep feature extraction, 2) deep neural network architecture design, 3) personal calibration, and 4) device and platform.
Recently, deep learning-based methods have gained popularity as they offer several advantages over conventional appearance-based methods. These methods use convolution layers or transformers [22] to automatically extract high-level gaze features from images. Deep learning models are also highly non-linear and can fit t...
In this survey, we present a comprehensive overview of deep learning-based gaze estimation methods. Unlike the conventional gaze estimation methods that requires dedicated devices, the deep learning-based approaches regress the gaze from the eye appearance captured by web cameras. This makes it easy to implement the al...

The rest of this paper is organized as follows: Section 2 presents the related works. In Section 3 we present the motivation and contribution of the paper. The proposed method is detailed in Section 4. Experimental results are presented in Section 5. Conclusion ends the paper.
Occlusion is a key limitation of real-world 2D face recognition methods. Generally, it comes out from wearing hats, eyeglasses, masks as well as any other objects that can occlude a part of the face while leaving others unaffected. Thus, wearing a mask is considered the most difficult facial occlusion challenge since ...
To tackle these problems, we distinguish two different tasks namely: face mask recognition and masked face recognition. The first one checks whether the person is wearing a mask or no. This can be applied in public places where the mask is compulsory. Masked face recognition, on the other hand, aims to recognize a face...
The COVID-19 can be spread through contact and contaminated surfaces, therefore, the classical biometric systems based on passwords or fingerprints are not anymore safe. Face recognition is safer without any need to touch any device. Recent studies on coronavirus have proven that wearing a face mask by a healthy and in...
Occlusion removal approach: In order to avoid a bad reconstruction process, these approaches aim to detect regions found to be occluded in the face image and discard them completely from the feature extraction and classification process. Segmentation based approach is one of the best methods that detect firstly the oc...

We conjecture that finite-time typechecking only requires restricting our type system (including equality of equirecursive types [DP20a]) to circular derivations, which can be represented as finite trees with loops, provided decidable arithmetic (e.g., Presburger). Such a restricted system may be put in correspondence...
Sized types are compositional: since termination checking is reduced to an instance of typechecking, we avoid the brittleness of syntactic termination checking. However, we find that ad hoc features for implementing size arithmetic in the prior work can be subsumed by more general arithmetic refinements [DP20b, XP99], ...
Our system is closely related to the sequential functional language of Lepigre and Raffalli [LR19], which utilizes circular typing derivations for a sized type system with mixed inductive-coinductive types, also avoiding continuity checking. In particular, their well-foundedness criterion on circular proofs seems to c...
Implementation: we are interested in developing a convenient surface language (perhaps a functional one [PP20]) for SAX and implementing our type system, following Rast [DP20a], an implementation of resource-aware session types that includes arithmetic refinements. Perhaps various validity conditions of infinite proofs...

There are two extra challenges that need to be addressed. For one thing, considering that the original purpose of cloud’s involvement is to help resource-constrained owners efficiently share their media contents, the owner-side overhead needs to be carefully controlled to ensure that owners can obtain sig-nificant reso...
This paper solves the three problems faced by cloud media sharing and proposes two schemes FairCMS-I and FairCMS-II. FairCMS-I gives a method to transfer the management of LUTs to the cloud, enabling the calculation of each user’s D-LUT in the ciphertext domain and its subsequent distribution. However, utilizing the s...
Thirdly, there are also studies that deal with both privacy-protected access control and traitor tracing. Xia et al. [26] introduced the watermarking technique to privacy-protected content-based ciphertext image retrieval in the cloud, which can prevent the user from illegally distributing the retrieved images. However...
As discussed above, AFP seems to solve Problems 2 and 3 perfectly. However, this is no longer the case when media contents are remotely hosted by the cloud since existing AFP schemes were designed without taking the cloud’s involvement into consideration. Thus it remains to be further explored how to develop a novel A...
In this paper, facing these problems and challenges, we set out to solve them. First, to achieve data protection and access control, we adopt the lifted-ElGamal based PRE scheme, as discussed in [16, 17, 18, 19, 20], whose most prominent characteristic is that it satisfies the property of additive homomorphism. Then t...

The selected feature interactions of order-3 and order-4 are mostly not overlapped in the correctly predicted instance (a).

We find that in the first layer, which models the second order feature interactions, these feature fields are hard to distinguish when selecting the beneficial interactions. This suggests that almost all the second-order feature interactions are useful, which also why we sample all of them in the first layer, i.e., m1=...

Here we visualize heat maps of estimated edge weights of two cherry-pick instances on MovieLens-1M dataset in Fig. 4. We show the measured edge weights of each ...
This proves that our model can indeed select meaningful feature combination and model feature interactions of increasing orders with multiple layers in most cases, rather than select the redundant feature combinations of same feature fields. We can also find some meaningful feature combinations in common cases. For exa...

The FOO and LMO oracles are standard in the FW literature. The ZOO oracle is often implicitly assumed to be included with the FOO oracle; we make this explicit here for clarity.

In this section, we give a brief outline of our approach and discuss the challenges we overcome. As the basic building block, we follow the classic approach by Hopcroft and Karp [HK73] of iteratively finding short augmenting paths to improve a 2222-approximate matching that can easily be found by a greedy algorithm.
The basic building block in the search for augmenting paths is to find semi-matchings between the vertices and their matched neighbors such that each vertex has a small amount of neighbors in the semi-matching. In the case of bipartite graphs, they show that their method of searching for augmenting paths in a graph def...
In the first pass, we apply a simple greedy algorithm to find a maximal matching, hence a 2222-approximation. This 2222-approximate maximum matching is our starting matching. The rest of our algorithm is divided into multiples phases. In each phase, we iteratively improve the approximation ratio of our current matchin...

Recently, several compression methods have been proposed for distributed and federated learning, including [28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40]. Recent works have tried to combine the communication compression methods with decentralized optimization.
In decentralized optimization, efficient communication is critical for enhancing algorithm performance and system scalability. One major approach to reduce communication costs is considering communication compression, which is essential especially under limited communication bandwidth.

The properties of the CE means that no individual player is motivated to deviate from the suggested action. If there are deviation ac...
There are two important solution concepts in the space of CEs. The first is Maximum Welfare Correlated Equilibrium (MWCE) which is defined as the CE that maximises the sum of all player’s payoffs. An MWCE can be obtained by solving a linear program, however the MWCE may not be unique and therefore does not fully solve ...

The set of (C)CEs forms a convex polytope, and therefore any strictly convex function could uniquely select amongst this set.

Since achieving posterior accuracy is relatively straightforward, guaranteeing Bayes stability is the main challenge in leveraging this theorem to achieve distribution accuracy with respect to adaptively chosen queries.

In order to leverage Lemma 3.5, we need a stability notion that implies Bayes stability of query responses in a manner that depends on the actual datasets and the actual queries (not just the worst case). In this section we propose such a notion and prove several key properties of it. Missing proofs from this section ...
In this section, we give a clean, new characterization of the harms of adaptivity. Our goal is to bound the distribution error of a mechanism that responds to queries generated by an adaptive analyst.

Training diffusion model requires massive training triplets of foregrounds, backgrounds, and ground-truth real images.

To train Transformers, it is required that all input sequences have the same length. For both REMI and CP, we divide the token sequence for each entire piece into a number of shorter sequences with equal sequence length 512, zero-padding those at the end of a piece to 512 with an appropriate number of Pad tokens.
In addition to REMI, we experiment with the “token grouping” idea of the compound word (CP) representation \parencitehsiao21aaai, to reduce the length of the token sequences. We depict the two adopted token representations in Fig. 1 and provide some details below.

Now, observe that if the block to the left is also of type A, then a respective block from Z⁢(S)𝑍𝑆Z(S)italic_Z ( italic_S ) is (0,1,0)010(0,1,0)( 0 , 1 , 0 ) – and when we add the backward carry (0,0,1)001(0,0,1)( 0 , 0 , 1 ) to it, we obtain the forward carry to the rightmost block. And regardless of the value of t...
Now, observe that if the block to the left is also of type A, then a respective block from Z⁢(S)𝑍𝑆Z(S)italic_Z ( italic_S ) is (0,1,0)010(0,1,0)( 0 , 1 , 0 ) – and when we add the backward carry (0,0,1)001(0,0,1)( 0 , 0 , 1 ) to it, we obtain the forward carry to the rightmost block. And regardless of the value of t...
Therefore, the only possible backward carry from the block of type A to the block of type B has to be in the form (0,0,1)001(0,0,1)( 0 , 0 , 1 ). However, this will be combined with a block (0,1,0)010(0,1,0)( 0 , 1 , 0 ) from Z⁢(S)𝑍𝑆Z(S)italic_Z ( italic_S ) – thus, the sum of the blocks from Z⁢(S)𝑍𝑆Z(S)italic_Z (...
In any way, the forward carry to the (i+1)𝑖1(i+1)( italic_i + 1 )-th block cannot exceed (1,1,0)110(1,1,0)( 1 , 1 , 0 ). However, since the (i+1)𝑖1(i+1)( italic_i + 1 )-th blocks of Z⁢(S)𝑍𝑆Z(S)italic_Z ( italic_S ) and Z⁢(S2)𝑍subscript𝑆2Z(S_{2})italic_Z ( italic_S start_POSTSUBSCRIPT 2 end_POSTSUBSCRIPT ) are (0,...
Finally, note that the aforementioned forward carry resulting from backward carry appears in the block which has to be equal to (0,0,1)001(0,0,1)( 0 , 0 , 1 ) (as it has to be the second case above), so it turns it into (1,0,1)101(1,0,1)( 1 , 0 , 1 ) and it does not generate any future carries.
