There are several well-known generating sets for classical groups. For example, special linear groups are generated by the subset of all transvections [21, Theorem 4.3] or by two well chosen matrices, such as the Steinberg generators [19]. Another generating set which has become important in algorithms and application...
One important task in this context is writing elements of classical groups as words in standard generators using SLPs. This is done in Magma [14] using the results of Elliot Costi [6] and in GAP using the results of this paper see Section 6. Other rewriting algorithms also exist, for example Cohen et al. [26] present a...
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...

The LGO generating set offers a variety of advantages. In practice it is the generating set produced by the constructive recognition algorithms from [10, 11] as implemented in MAGMA. Consequently, algorithms in the composition tree data structure, both in MAGMA and in GAP, store elements in classical groups as words in...

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}...
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...

Except for (ii), all steps above above can be performed efficiently as the matrices involved are sparse and either local or independent of hℎhitalic_h. Solving (25) on the other hand involves computing the hℎhitalic_h-dependent, global operator P𝑃Pitalic_P, leading to a dense matrix in (25). From now on, we concentrat...

The difference is mainly due to the degenerate case (where a chord of P𝑃Pitalic_P is parallel to an edge of P𝑃Pitalic_P) and the float issue of both programs. Our implementations of Alg-K and Alg-CM have logical difference in handling degenerate cases.
Our experiment shows that the running time of Alg-A is roughly one eighth of the running time of Alg-K, or one tenth of the running time of Alg-CM. (Moreover, the number of iterations required by Alg-CM and Alg-K is roughly 4.67 times that of Alg-A.)

Moreover, Alg-A is more stable than the alternatives. During the iterations of Alg-CM, the coordinates of three corners and two midpoints of a P-stable triangle (see Figure 37) are maintained. These coordinates are computed somehow and their true values can differ from their values stored in the computer. Alg-CM uses a...
Comparing the description of the main part of Alg-A (the 7 lines in Algorithm 1) with that of Alg-CM (pages 9–10 of [8]), Alg-A is conceptually simpler. Alg-CM is claimed “involved” by its authors as it contains complicated subroutines for handling many subcases.

The processing pipeline of our classification approach is shown in Figure 2. In the first step, relevant tweets for an event are gathered. Subsequently, in the upper part of the pipeline, we predict tweet credibilty with our pre-trained credibility model and aggregate the prediction probabilities on single tweets (Cred...
In the lower part of the pipeline, we extract features from tweets and combine them with the creditscore to construct the feature vector in a time series structure called Dynamic Series Time Model. These feature vectors are used to train the classifier for rumor vs. (non-rumor) news classification.
Most relevant for our work is the work presented in [20], where a time series model to capture the time-based variation of social-content features is used. We build upon the idea of their Series-Time Structure, when building our approach for early rumor detection with our extended dataset, and we provide a deep analys...

As observed in [19, 20], rumor features are very prone to change during an event’s development. In order to capture these temporal variabilities, we build upon the Dynamic Series-Time Structure (DSTS) model (time series for short) for feature vector representation proposed in [20]. We base our credibility feature on t...

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...
Given a tweet, our task is to classify whether it is associated with either a news or rumor. Most of the previous work (castillo2011information, ; gupta2014tweetcred, ) on tweet level only aims to measure the trustfulness based on human judgment (note that even if a tweet is trusted, it could anyway relate to a rumor)...
For this task, we developed two kinds of classification models: traditional classifier with handcrafted features and neural networks without tweet embeddings. For the former, we used 27 distinct surface-level features extracted from single tweets (analogously to the Twitter-based features presented in Section 3.2). Fo...

Specifically, we learn a more complex representation of single tweets using Convolutional Neural Networks, that could capture more hidden meaningful signal than only enquiries to debunk rumor...
We consider two types of Ensemble Features: features accumulating crowd wisdom and averaging feature for the Tweet credit Scores. The former are extracted from the surface level while the latter comes from the low dimensional level of tweet embeddings; that in a way augments the sparse crowd at early stage.

Evaluating methodology. For RQ1, given an event entity e, at time t, we need to classify them into either Breaking or Anticipated class.

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],

For time delays between carb entries and the next glucose measurements we distinguish cases where glucose was measured at most 30 minutes before logging the meal, to account for cases where multiple measurements are made for one meal – in such cases it might not make sense to predict the glucose directly after the meal...
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.

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...
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.

Weight values from the ASPP module and decoder were initialized according to the Xavier method by Glorot and Bengio (2010). It specifies parameter values as samples drawn from a uniform distribution with zero mean and a variance depending on the total number of incoming and outgoing connections. Such initialization sc...
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). A set of nin...
To quantify the contribution of multi-scale contextual information to the overall performance, we conducted a model ablation analysis. A baseline architecture without the ASPP module was constructed by replacing the five parallel convolutional layers with a single 3×3333\times 33 × 3 convolutional operation that result...
Table 2 demonstrates that we obtained state-of-the-art scores for the CAT2000 test dataset regarding the AUC-J, sAUC, and KLD evaluation metrics, and competitive results on the remaining measures.

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).

We observe that the reduction from MinCutwidth to MinLoc from Section 4.1 combined with the reduction from MinLoc to MinPathwidth from Section 5.2 gives a reduction from MinCutwidth to MinPathwidth. Moreover, this reduction is approximation preserving; thus, it carries over approximations for MinPathwidth (e. g., [21,...
In the following, we obtain an approximation algorithm for the locality number by reducing it to the problem of computing the pathwidth of a graph. To this end, we first describe another way of how a word can be represented by a graph. Recall that the reduction to cutwidth from Section 4 also transforms words into grap...

One of the main results of this section is a reduction from the problem of computing the locality number of a word α𝛼\alphaitalic_α to the probem of computing the pathwidth of a graph.

Pathwidth and cutwidth are classical graph parameters that play an important role for graph algorithms, independent from our application for computing the locality number. Therefore, it is the main purpose of this section to translate the reduction from MinCutwidth to MinPathwidth that takes MinLoc as an intermediate s...

This model compared with vanilla conv-deconv and u-net performs better by an average of 5% in terms of Dice. Patravali et al.[140] trained a model based on u-net using Dice combined with cross entropy as a metric for LV/RV and myocardium segmentation.
The model was designed to accept a stack of image slices as input channels and the output is predicted for the middle slice. Based on experiments they conducted, it was concluded that three input slices were optimal as an input for the model, instead of one or five.
Autoencoders (AEs) are neural networks that are trained with the objective to copy the input x𝑥xitalic_x to the output in such a way that they encode useful properties of the data. It usually consists of an encoding part that downsamples the input down to a linear feature and a decoding part that upsamples to the orig...
A common AE architecture is Stacked Denoised AE (SDAE) that has an objective to reconstruct the clean input from an artificially corrupted version of the input[20] which prevents the model from learning trivial solutions. Another AE-like architecture is u-net[4], which is of special interest to the biomedical community...
Another three models were trained using the signals as 1D. The first model was a FNN with dropout, the second a three layer 1D CNN and the third a 2D CNN same as the first but trained with a stacked version of the signal (also trained with data augmentation).

The primary evaluation in our experiments studies the sample efficiency of SimPLe, in comparison with state-of-the-art model-free deep RL methods in the literature. To that end, we compare with Rainbow (Hessel et al., 2018; Castro et al., 2018), which represents the state-of-the-art Q-learning method for Atari games, ...
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. This can be improved with better dynamics models and, while generally common with model-based RL algorithms, suggests an import...
The iterative process of training the model, training the policy, and collecting data is crucial for non-trivial tasks where random data collection is insufficient.

The results in these figures are generated by averaging 5555 runs for each game. The model-based agent is better than a random policy for all the games except Bank Heist. Interestingly, we observed that the best of the 5555 runs was often significantly better. For 6666 of the games, it exceeds the average human score (...

One common approach that previous studies have used for classifying EEG signals was feature extraction from the frequency and time-frequency domains utilizing the theory behind EEG band frequencies [8]: delta (0.5–4 Hz), theta (4–8 Hz), alpha (8–13 Hz), beta (13–20 Hz) and gamma (20–64 Hz).

Intuitively, Rrc works similarly to Reserved-Critical except that it might not open as many critical bins as suggested by the advice.

Another important aspect of this incremental approach is that since this confidence vector is a value that “summarizes the past history”, keeping track of how this vector changes over time should allow us to derive simple and clear rules to decide when the system should make an early classification.

Trying to solely achieve lower reconstruction error (such as the case for the Identity activation function) produces noisy learned kernels, while using the combined measure of reconstru...

Typical wireless protocol 802.11b/g only provides limited channels for users, which is far more than enough for high-quality communication services [18].

Game theory provides an efficient tool for the cooperation through resource allocation and sharing [20][21]. A computation offloading game has been designed in order to balance the UAV’s tradeoff between execution time and energy consumption [25]. A sub-modular game is adopted in the scheduling of beaconing periods fo...
We propose a novel UAV ad-hoc network model with the aggregative game which is compatible with the large-scale highly dynamic environments, in which several influences are coupled together. In the aggregative game, the interference from other UAVs can be regarded as the integral influence, which makes the model more pr...
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...
In post-disaster scenarios, a great many of UAVs are required to support users [4]. Therefore, we propose aggregative game theory into such scenarios and permit UAV to learn in the constrained strategy sets. Because the aggregative game can integrate the impact of all other UAVs on one UAV, it reduces the complexity o...

To evaluate the Dropout-DQN, we employ the standard reinforcement learning (RL) methodology, where the performance of the agent is assessed at the conclusion of the training epochs. Thus we ran ten consecutive learning trails and averaged them. We have evaluated Dropout-DQN algorithm on CARTPOLE problem from the Class...
To that end, we ran Dropout-DQN and DQN on one of the classic control environments to express the effect of Dropout on Variance and the learned policies quality. For the Overestimation phenomena, we ran Dropout-DQN and DQN on a Gridworld environment to express the effect of Dropout because in such environment the optim...
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.

The LSTM baseline generally achieves a better accuracy than Dense, since it captures the sequential ordering of the words in the reviews, which also helps to prevent overfitting on training data. Finally, the TCN baseline always outperforms LSTM, both in terms of accuracy and computational costs.
Additional baselines are the Weisfeiler-Lehman (WL) graph kernel [47], a GNN with only MP layers (Flat), and a network with only dense layers (Dense). The comparison with Flat helps to understand whether pooling operations are useful for a given task.
Interestingly, the Dense architecture achieves the best performance on MUTAG, indicating that in this case, the connectivity of the graps does not carry useful information for the classification task. The performance of the Flat baseline indicates that in Enzymes and COLLAB pooling operations are not necessary to impro...
Interestingly, the GNNs configured with GRACLUS and NDP always achieve better results than the Dense network, even if the latter generates the word embeddings used to build the graph on which the GNN operates. This can be explained by the fact that the Dense network immediately overfits the dataset, whereas the graph s...

In a more practical setting, the agent sequentially explores the state space, and meanwhile, exploits the information at hand by taking the actions that lead to higher expected total rewards. Such an exploration-exploitation tradeoff is better captured by the aforementioned statistical question regarding the regret or ...
The policy improvement step defined in (3.2) corresponds to one iteration of NPG (Kakade, 2002), TRPO (Schulman et al., 2015), and PPO (Schulman et al., 2017). In particular, PPO solves the same KL-regularized policy optimization subproblem as in (3.2) at each iteration, while TRPO solves an equivalent KL-constrained s...
To answer this question, we propose the first policy optimization algorithm that incorporates exploration in a principled manner. In detail, we develop an Optimistic variant of the PPO algorithm, namely OPPO. Our algorithm is also closely related to NPG and TRPO. At each update, OPPO solves a Kullback-Leibler (KL)-regu...

The challenge is to reduce the number of bits as much as possible while at the same time keeping the prediction accuracy close to that of a well-tuned full-precision DNN.

Knowledge distillation is an approach where a small student DNN is trained to mimic the behavior of a larger teacher DNN, which has been shown to yield improved results compared to training the small DNN directly. The idea of weight sharing is to use a small set of weights that is shared among several connections of a ...
In recent years, the STE (Bengio et al., 2013) (see Section 2.6) became the method of choice to compute an approximate gradient for training DNNs with weights that are represented using a very small number of bits. Such methods typically maintain a set of full-precision weights that are quantized during forward propaga...
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).
The two works of Höhfeld and Fahlman (Höhfeld and Fahlman, 1992a, b) rounded the weights during training to fixed-point format with different numbers of bits. They observed that training eventually stalls as small gradient updates are always rounded to zero.

(3) AdaGAE is a scalable clustering model that works stably on different scale and type datasets, while the other deep clustering models usually fail when the training set is not large enough. Besides, it is insensitive to different initialization of parameters and needs no pretraining.

Classical clustering models work poorly on large scale datasets. Instead, DEC and SpectralNet work better on the large scale datasets.

Recent work showed that even TCP traffic gets fragmented under certain conditions (Dai et al., 2021b). Fragmentation has long history of attacks which affect both the UDP and TCP traffic (Kent and Mogul, 1987; Herzberg and Shulman, 2013; Shulman and Waidner, 2014).
Identifying servers with global IPID counters. We send packets from two hosts (with different IP addresses) to a server on a tested network.

The challenge here is to accurately probe the increments rate of the IPID value (caused by the packets from other sources not controlled by us), in order to be able to extrapolate the value that will have been assigned to our second probe from a real source IP.

A semigroup arising in this way is called self-similar. Furthermore, if the generating automaton is finite, it is an automaton semigroup. If the generating automaton is additionally complete, we speak of a completely self-similar semigroup or of a complete automaton semigroup.

The rest of this paper is organized as follows. In the next section, we discuss the literature related to visualization of ensemble learning. Afterwards, we describe the knowledge generation model for ensemble learning with VA, design goals, and analytical tasks for attaching VA to ensemble learning.
In a bucket of models, the best model for a specific problem is automatically chosen from a set of available options. This strategy is conceptually different to the ideas of bagging, boosting, and stacking, but still related to ensemble learning. Chen et al. [6] utilize a bucket of latent Dirichlet allocation (LDA) mod...

A CCA-enabled UAV mmWave network is considered in this paper. Here, we first establish the DRE-covered CCA model in Section II-A. Then the system setup of the considered UAV mmWave network is described in Section II-B. Finally, the beam tracking problem for the CA-enabled UAV mmWave network is modeled in Section II-C.
In addition, the AOAs and AODs should be tracked in the highly dynamic UAV mmWave network. To this end, in Section IV we will further propose a novel predictive AOA/AOD tracking scheme in conjunction with tracking error treatment to address the high mobility challenge, then we integrate these operations into the codebo...

In this section, we extend our analysis of TD to Q-learning and policy gradient. In §6.1, we introduce Q-learning and its mean-field limit. In §6.2, we establish the global optimality and convergence of Q-learning. In §6.3, we further extend our analysis to soft Q-learning, which is equivalent to policy gradient.

Moreover, soft Q-learning is equivalent to a variant of policy gradient (O’Donoghue et al., 2016; Schulman et al., 2017; Nachum et al., 2017; Haarnoja et al., 2017). Hence, Proposition 6.4 also characterizes the global optimality and convergence of such a variant of policy gradient.
In this paper, we study temporal-difference (TD) (Sutton, 1988) and Q-learning (Watkins and Dayan, 1992), two of the most prominent algorithms in deep reinforcement learning, which are further connected to policy gradient (Williams, 1992) through its equivalence to soft Q-learning (O’Donoghue et al., 2016; Schulman et...

If we avoid these tricks, these methods may suffer from severe performance degradation. For LARS and its variants, the proposal of the layer-wise update strategy is primarily based on empirical observations. Its reasonability and necessity remain doubtful from an optimization perspective.

For instance, since the random output tables in Figure 3 comply with 1212\frac{1}{2}divide start_ARG 1 end_ARG start_ARG 2 end_ARG-probability, for any QI value whose corresponding column has at least one probability greater than 0, there are at least 2 records can carry the QI value.
In this work, we propose a novel technique called the Mutual Cover (MuCo) to impede adversary from matching the combination of QI values while overcoming the above issues. The key idea of MuCo is to make similar tuples to cover for each other by randomizing their QI values according to random output tables.
The advantages of MuCo are summarized as follows. First, MuCo can maintain the distributions of original QI values as much as possible. For instance, the sum of each column in Figure 3 is shown by the blue polyline in Figure 2, and the blue polyline almost coincides with the red polyline representing the distribution i...

Specifically, we conduct experiments to compare the following methods: (i) VDM. The proposed self-supervised exploration method. (ii) ICM [10]. ICM first builds an inverse dynamics mode...
Conducting exploration without the extrinsic rewards is called the self-supervised exploration. From the perspective of human cognition, the learning style of children can inspire us to solve such problems. The children often employ goal-less exploration to learn skills that will be useful in the future. Developmental ...
We compare the model complexity of all the methods in Table I. VDM, RFM, and Disagreement use a fixed CNN for feature extraction. Thus, the trainable parameters of feature extractor are 0. ICM estimates the inverse dynamics for feature extraction with 2.21M parameters. ICM and RFM use the same architecture for dynamics...

Several improvements have been presented, including Floatman–Hormann interpolation [16, 38], that reach better approximation quality than splines. However, all of them share the above weaknesses (A,B,C), as we demonstrate in the numerical experiments of Section 8.

For instance, in anomaly detection [1, 2, 3], the abnormal observations follow a different distribution from the typical distribution. Similarly, in change-point detection [4, 5, 6], the post-change observations follow a different distribution from the pre-change one.
However, the two-sample tests based on concentration inequalities in Section III give conservative results in practice. We examine the two-sample tests using the projected Wasserstein distance via the permutation approach. Specifically, we permute the collected data points for Np=100subscript𝑁𝑝100N_{p}=100italic_N st...
In this paper, we consider non-parametric two-sample testing, in which no prior information about the unknown distribution is available. Two-sample tests for non-parametric settings are usually constructed based on some metrics quantifying the distance between two distributions.
Several data-efficient two-sample tests [20, 21, 22] are constructed based on Maximum Mean Discrepancy (MMD), which quantifies the distance between two distributions by introducing test functions in a Reproducing Kernel Hilbert Space (RKHS). However, it is pointed out in [23] that when the bandwidth is chosen based on ...
Classical tests (see, e.g., [12]) mainly follow the parametric approaches, which are designed based on prior information about the distributions under each class. Examples in classical tests include the Hotelling’s two-sample test [13] and the Student’s t-test [14].

While the aforementioned models made significant progress on the problem, they suffer from an inherent trade-off between learning DR and reconstruction quality.

DFS (Depth First Search) verifies that the output is possible for the actual Pin connection state. As described above, the output is determined by the 3-pin input, so we will enter 1 with the A2 and A1 connections, the B2 and B1 connections (the reverse is treated as 0), and the corresponding output will be recognized...
Fig. 3 is AND and/or gate consisting of 3-pin based logics, Fig. 3 also shows the connection status of the output pin when A=0, B=1 is entered in the AND gate. when A=0, B=1, or A is connected, and B is connected, output C is connected only to the following two pins, and this is the correct result for AND operation.
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. However, one can think about whether the four pin designs are the...
We will look at the inputs through 18 test cases to see if the circuit is acceptable. Next, it verifies with DFS that the output is possible for the actual pin connection state. As mentioned above, the search is carried out and the results are expressed by the unique number of each vertex. The result is as shown in Tab...

Initially, the Koopman operator framework was used extensively for dynamics over reals (or complex) state space, and the function space is infinite-dimensional, which leads to resorting to finite-dimensional numerical approximations of the Koopman operator [28, 29] for practical computations.

Stacked penalized logistic regression (StaPLR) (Van Loon \BOthers., \APACyear2020) is a method specifically developed to tackle the joint classification and view selection problem. Compared with a variant of the lasso for selecting groups of features (the so-called group lasso (M. Yuan \BBA Lin, \APACyear2007)), StaPLR...
For this purpose, one would ideally like to use an algorithm that provides sparsity, but also algorithmic stability in the sense that given two very similar data sets, the set of selected views should vary little. However, sparse algorithms are generally not stable, and vice versa (Xu \BOthers., \APACyear2012). An exam...
In high-dimensional biomedical studies, a common goal is to create an accurate classification model using only a subset of the features (Y. Li \BOthers., \APACyear2018). A popular approach to this type of joint classification and feature selection problem is to apply penalized methods such as the lasso (Tibshirani, \AP...
In this article we investigated how different view-selecting meta-learners affect the performance of multi-view stacking. In our simulations, the interpolating predictor often performed worse than the other meta-learners on at least one outcome measure. For example, when the sample size was larger than the number of vi...
A particular challenge of the aforementioned joint classification and view selection problem is its inherent trade-off between accuracy and sparsity. For example, the most accurate model may not perform the best in terms of view selection. In fact, the prediction-optimal amount of regularization causes the lasso to sel...

The proximity-based approach is mainstream in anomaly detection [8, 9, 10, 11], and operates on the assumption that anomalies are objects that exhibit significant distance or sparsity in their neighborhood compared to other objects. The anomalousness of an object is determined by its proximity to neighboring objects. P...
This example highlights the fundamental difference between proximity-based and dependency-based methods. Dependency-based methods focus on identifying anomalies based on underlying relationships between variables, whereas proximity-based methods rely on object similarity in terms of proximity. In cases like this, where...
Various anomaly detection methods have been developed to leverage the distinctive characteristics of anomalies that deviate from the norm in some manner. The typical process of anomaly detection involves assuming a specific aspect in which anomalies are considered abnormal and then assessing the anomalousness of object...
Dependency-based approach is fundamentally different from proximity-based approach because it considers the relationship among variables, while proximity-based approach examines the relationship among objects. We use an example to explain the difference between the two approaches.
The dependency-based approach works under the assumption that anomalies deviate from the normal dependency among variables, and the extend of anomalousness is evaluated based on this deviation. While the proximity-based approach that focuses on relationships among objects, the dependency-based approach emphasizes on t...

Algorithm 1 follows the template of in the face of uncertainty (OFU) strategies [Auer et al., 2002, Filippi et al., 2010, Faury et al., 2020]. Technical analysis of OFU algorithms relies on two key factors: the design of the confidence set and the ease of choosing an action using the confidence set.
In this paper, we build on recent developments for generalized linear bandits (Faury et al.

CB-MNL follows the standard template of optimistic parameter search strategies (also known as optimism in the face of...

Though many methods (e.g., [1, 3, 9, 20, 21, 24, 42, 43, 44, 46]) in recent years have been continuously breaking the record of TAL performance, a major challenge hinders its substantial improvement – large variation in action duration. An action can last from a fraction of a second to minutes in the real-world scenari...
Recent temporal action localization methods can be generally classified into two categories based on the way they deal with the input sequence. In the first category, the works such as BSN [21], BMN [20], G-TAD [44], BC-GNN [3] re-scale each video to a fixed temporal length (usually a small length such as 100 snippets...
Specifically, we propose a Video self-Stitching Graph Network (VSGN) for improving performance of short actions in the TAL problem. Our VSGN is a multi-level cross-scale framework that contains two major components: video self-stitching (VSS); cross-scale graph pyramid network (xGPN). In VSS, we focus on a short period...
In this paper, to tackle the challenging problem of large action scale variation in the temporal action localization (TAL) problem, we target short actions and propose a multi-level cross-scale solution called video self-stitching graph network (VSGN). It contains a video self-stitching (VSS) component that generates ...
Why are short actions hard to localize? Short actions have small temporal scales with fewer frames, and therefore, their information is prone to loss or distortion throughout a deep neural network. Most methods in the literature process videos regardless of action duration, which as a consequence sacrifices the perfor...

This algorithm treats the spatial distribution of swarm agents, called the density distribution, as a probability distribution and employs the Metropolis-Hastings (M-H) algorithm to synthesize a Markov chain that guides the density distribution toward a desired state. The probabilistic guidance algorithm led to the dev...
Unlike the homogeneous Markov chain synthesis algorithms in [4, 7, 5, 6, 8, 9], the Markov matrix, synthesized by our algorithm, approaches the identity matrix as the probability distribution converges to the desired steady-state distribution. Hence the proposed algorithm attempts to minimize the number of state transi...

It is demonstrated that the synthesized Markov chain, formulated using the proposed consensus algorithm, satisfies the aforementioned mild conditions. This, in turn, ensures the exponen...

We presented a novel formulation for the isometric multi-shape matching problem. Our main idea is to simultaneously solve for shape-to-universe matchings and shape-to-universe functional maps. By doing so, we generalise the popular functional map framework to multi-matching, while guaranteeing cycle consistency, both ...
In contrast, HiPPI and our method require shape-to-universe representations. To obtain these, we use synchronisation to extract the shape-to-universe representation from the pairwise transformations.

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...

Finally, we empirically show the proposed framework produces high-fidelity and watertight meshes. It means that it solves the initial problem of disjoint patches occurring in the original AtlasNet (Groueix et al., 2018). To evaluate the continuity of output surfaces, we propose to use the following metric.
The above formulation alone causes that many of the produced patches have unnecessarily long edges, and the network folds them, so the patch fits the surface of an object. To mitigate the issue, we add an edge length regularization motivated by (Wang et al., 2018). If we assume that the reconstructed mesh has the form...
Watertigthness Typically, a mesh is referred to as being either watertight or not watertight. Since it is a true or false statement, there is no well-established measure to define the degree of discontinuities in the object’s surface. To fill this gap, we propose a metric based on a simple, approximate check of whether...

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.
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].
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...

Feature transformation usually denotes less sophisticated modifications over the features [14].

A VA system for regression analysis has been proposed by Mühlbacher and Piringer [15].

To reduce the number of times this experimental “oracle” is invoked, we employ Bayesian optimization (BO) [16, 17], which is an effective method for controller tuning [13, 18, 19] and optimization of industrial processes [20].

The calibration problem can be considered as domain adaption problems, where the training set is the source domain and the test set is the target domain. The test set usually contains unseen subjects or unseen environment. Researchers aim to improve the performance in the target domain using calibration samples.

Adding (co)inductive types and terminating recursion (including productive corecursive definitions) to any programming language is a non-trivial task, since only certain recursive programs constitute valid applications of (co)induction principles. Briefly, inductive calls must occur on data smaller than the input and, ...
Sized types are a type-oriented formulation of size-change termination [LJBA01] for rewrite systems [TG03, BR09]. Sized (co)inductive types [BFG+04, Bla04, Abe08, AP16] gave way to sized mixed inductive-coinductive types [Abe12, AP16]. In parallel, linear size arithmetic for sized inductive types [CK01, Xi01, BR06] was...
One solution that avoids syntactic checks is to track the flow of (co)data size at the type level with sized types, as pioneered by Hughes et al. [HPS96] and further developed by others [BFG+04, Bla04, Abe08, AP16]. Inductive and coinductive types are indexed by the height and observable depth of their data and codata...
Moreover, some prior work, which is based on sequential functional languages, encodes recursion via various fixed point combinators that make both mixed inductive-coinductive programming [Bas18] and substructural typing difficult, the latter requiring the use of the ! modality [Wad12].

Afterwards, Bianchi et al. [10] proposed a LUT-based AFP scheme without involving a Trusted Third Party (TTP) based on homomorphic encryption, which also implements AFP within the user-side framework. Despite the fact that Problems 2 and 3 are solved in these works, Problem 1 is not mentioned.
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...
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...
Moreover, FairCMS-I does not perform any processing on the encrypted media content stored in the cloud, but only performs homomorphic operations and re-encryption operations on the encrypted LUT and fingerprint that are much smaller in size, which results in outstanding cloud-side efficiency. In contrast, the two schem...
The owner-side efficiency and scalability performance of FairCMS-II are directly inherited from FairCMS-I, and the achievement of the three security goals of FairCMS-II is also shown in Section VI. Comparing to FairCMS-I, it is easy to see that in FairCMS-II the cloud’s overhead is increased considerably due to the ado...

To capture the impact of these feature interactions, a model might consider a 3-order cross feature such as (Genre = fiction, Director = Christopher Nolan, Starring = Leonardo DiCaprio) or (Language = Chinese, Genre = action, Starring = Bruce Lee) as potentially indicating higher user preferences.
In this work, we disclose the relationship between FM and GNN, and seamlessly combine them to propose a novel model GraphFM for feature interaction learning. The proposed model leverages the strength of FM and GNN and also solve their respective drawbacks.
Factorization machine (FM) Rendle (2010, 2012) are a popular and effective method for modeling feature interactions, which involve learning a latent vector for each one-hot encoded feature and modeling the pairwise (second-order) interactions between them through the inner product of their respective vectors.

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.
For example, the rapid development of distributed machine learning involves data whose size is getting increasingly large, and they are usually stored across multiple computing agents that are spatially distributed. Centering large amounts of data is often undesirable due to limited communication resources and/or priva...

To train Transformers, it is required that all input sequences have the same length.

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.
To study whether the accuracy gain comes simply from a longer musical context enjoyed by CP, we also train “our model (performance)+++CP” with a sequence of length 128, obtaining 95.43, 80.32 and 64.04 accuracies for three-class melody classification, style classification and emotion classification, respectively. We no...
For fine-tuning, we create training, validation and test splits for each of the three datasets of the downstream tasks with the 8:1:1 ratio at the piece level (i.e., all the 512-token sequences from the same piece are in the same split). With the same batch size of 12, we fine-tune the pre-trained our model for each ta...

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...
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.
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,...
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 (...
