In this paper, we present a notion of differential privacy (DP) for data that comes from different classes. Here, the class-membership is private information that needs to be protected. The proposed method is an output perturbation mechanism that adds noise to the release of query response such that the analyst is unable to infer the underlying class-label. The proposed DP method is capable of not only protecting the privacy of class-based data but also meets quality metrics of accuracy and is computationally efficient and practical. We illustrate the efficacy of the proposed method empirically while outperforming the baseline additive Gaussian noise mechanism. We also examine a real-world application and apply the proposed DP method to the autoregression and moving average (ARMA) forecasting method, protecting the privacy of the underlying data source. Case studies on the real-world advanced metering infrastructure (AMI) measurements of household power consumption validate the excellent performance of the proposed DP method while also satisfying the accuracy of forecasted power consumption measurements.

Improving ASR systems is necessary to make new LLM-based use-cases accessible to people across the globe. In this paper, we focus on Indian languages, and make the case that diverse benchmarks are required to evaluate and improve ASR systems for Indian languages. To address this, we collate Vistaar as a set of 59 benchmarks across various language and domain combinations, on which we evaluate 3 publicly available ASR systems and 2 commercial systems. We also train IndicWhisper models by fine-tuning the Whisper models on publicly available training datasets across 12 Indian languages totalling to 10.7K hours. We show that IndicWhisper significantly improves on considered ASR systems on the Vistaar benchmark. Indeed, IndicWhisper has the lowest WER in 39 out of the 59 benchmarks, with an average reduction of 4.1 WER. We open-source all datasets, code and models.
In this paper, we present a dataset for the computational study of a number of Modern Greek dialects. It consists of raw text data from four dialects of Modern Greek, Cretan, Pontic, Northern Greek and Cypriot Greek. The dataset is of considerable size, albeit imbalanced, and presents the first attempt to create large scale dialectal resources of this type for Modern Greek dialects. We then use the dataset to perform dialect idefntification. We experiment with traditional ML algorithms, as well as simple DL architectures. The results show very good performance on the task, potentially revealing that the dialects in question have distinct enough characteristics allowing even simple ML models to perform well on the task. Error analysis is performed for the top performing algorithms showing that in a number of cases the errors are due to insufficient dataset cleaning.
In this paper, we present a linear and reversible programming language with inductives types and recursion. The semantics of the languages is based on pattern-matching; we show how ensuring syntactical exhaustivity and non-overlapping of clauses is enough to ensure reversibility. The language allows to represent any Primitive Recursive Function. We then give a Curry-Howard correspondence with the logic $\mu$MALL: linear logic extended with least fixed points allowing inductive statements. The critical part of our work is to show how primitive recursion yields circular proofs that satisfy $\mu$MALL validity criterion and how the language simulates the cut-elimination procedure of $\mu$MALL.
Large language models (LLMs) have received increasing attention. However, due to the complexity of its capabilities, how to rationally evaluate the capabilities of LLMs is still a task to be solved. We propose the RoCar method, which utilizes the defined basic schemas to randomly construct a task graph and generates natural language evaluation tasks based on the task graph to evaluate the reasoning and memory abilities of LLMs respectively. Due to the very large randomness of the task construction process, it is possible to ensure that none of the LLMs to be tested has directly learned the evaluation tasks, guaranteeing the fairness of the evaluation method.
In this paper, we propose physics-informed neural operators (PINO) that combine training data and physics constraints to learn the solution operator of a given family of parametric Partial Differential Equations (PDE). PINO is the first hybrid approach incorporating data and PDE constraints at different resolutions to learn the operator. Specifically, in PINO, we combine coarse-resolution training data with PDE constraints imposed at a higher resolution. The resulting PINO model can accurately approximate the ground-truth solution operator for many popular PDE families and shows no degradation in accuracy even under zero-shot super-resolution, i.e., being able to predict beyond the resolution of training data. PINO uses the Fourier neural operator (FNO) framework that is guaranteed to be a universal approximator for any continuous operator and discretization-convergent in the limit of mesh refinement. By adding PDE constraints to FNO at a higher resolution, we obtain a high-fidelity reconstruction of the ground-truth operator. Moreover, PINO succeeds in settings where no training data is available and only PDE constraints are imposed, while previous approaches, such as the Physics-Informed Neural Network (PINN), fail due to optimization challenges, e.g., in multi-scale dynamic systems such as Kolmogorov flows.
A CF explainer identifies the minimum modifications in the input that would alter the model's output to its complement. In other words, a CF explainer computes the minimum modifications required to cross the model's decision boundary. Current deep generative CF models often work with user-selected features rather than focusing on the discriminative features of the black-box model. Consequently, such CF examples may not necessarily lie near the decision boundary, thereby contradicting the definition of CFs. To address this issue, we propose in this paper a novel approach that leverages saliency maps to generate more informative CF explanations. Source codes are available at: //github.com/Amir-Samadi//Saliency_Aware_CF.
In this paper, we propose a method for estimating model parameters using Small-Angle Scattering (SAS) data based on the Bayesian inference. Conventional SAS data analyses involve processes of manual parameter adjustment by analysts or optimization using gradient methods. These analysis processes tend to involve heuristic approaches and may lead to local solutions.Furthermore, it is difficult to evaluate the reliability of the results obtained by conventional analysis methods. Our method solves these problems by estimating model parameters as probability distributions from SAS data using the framework of the Bayesian inference. We evaluate the performance of our method through numerical experiments using artificial data of representative measurement target models.From the results of the numerical experiments, we show that our method provides not only high accuracy and reliability of estimation, but also perspectives on the transition point of estimability with respect to the measurement time and the lower bound of the angular domain of the measured data.
Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) have proven to be effective in processing and learning from graph-structured data. However, previous works mainly focused on understanding single graph inputs while many real-world applications require pair-wise analysis for graph-structured data (e.g., scene graph matching, code searching, and drug-drug interaction prediction). To this end, recent works have shifted their focus to learning the interaction between pairs of graphs. Despite their improved performance, these works were still limited in that the interactions were considered at the node-level, resulting in high computational costs and suboptimal performance. To address this issue, we propose a novel and efficient graph-level approach for extracting interaction representations using co-attention in graph pooling. Our method, Co-Attention Graph Pooling (CAGPool), exhibits competitive performance relative to existing methods in both classification and regression tasks using real-world datasets, while maintaining lower computational complexity.
In Multi-Label Text Classification (MLTC), one sample can belong to more than one class. It is observed that most MLTC tasks, there are dependencies or correlations among labels. Existing methods tend to ignore the relationship among labels. In this paper, a graph attention network-based model is proposed to capture the attentive dependency structure among the labels. The graph attention network uses a feature matrix and a correlation matrix to capture and explore the crucial dependencies between the labels and generate classifiers for the task. The generated classifiers are applied to sentence feature vectors obtained from the text feature extraction network (BiLSTM) to enable end-to-end training. Attention allows the system to assign different weights to neighbor nodes per label, thus allowing it to learn the dependencies among labels implicitly. The results of the proposed model are validated on five real-world MLTC datasets. The proposed model achieves similar or better performance compared to the previous state-of-the-art models.
Attention mechanism has been used as an ancillary means to help RNN or CNN. However, the Transformer (Vaswani et al., 2017) recently recorded the state-of-the-art performance in machine translation with a dramatic reduction in training time by solely using attention. Motivated by the Transformer, Directional Self Attention Network (Shen et al., 2017), a fully attention-based sentence encoder, was proposed. It showed good performance with various data by using forward and backward directional information in a sentence. But in their study, not considered at all was the distance between words, an important feature when learning the local dependency to help understand the context of input text. We propose Distance-based Self-Attention Network, which considers the word distance by using a simple distance mask in order to model the local dependency without losing the ability of modeling global dependency which attention has inherent. Our model shows good performance with NLI data, and it records the new state-of-the-art result with SNLI data. Additionally, we show that our model has a strength in long sentences or documents.
