One of the prevailing trends in the machine- and deep-learning community is to gravitate towards the use of increasingly larger models in order to keep pushing the state-of-the-art performance envelope. This tendency makes access to the associated technologies more difficult for the average practitioner and runs contrary to the desire to democratize knowledge production in the field. In this paper, we propose a framework for achieving improved memory efficiency in the process of learning traditional neural networks by leveraging inductive-bias-driven network design principles and layer-wise manifold-oriented regularization objectives. Use of the framework results in improved absolute performance and empirical generalization error relative to traditional learning techniques. We provide empirical validation of the framework, including qualitative and quantitative evidence of its effectiveness on two standard image datasets, namely CIFAR-10 and CIFAR-100. The proposed framework can be seamlessly combined with existing network compression methods for further memory savings.

Machine Learning (ML) is increasingly used to drive the operation of complex distributed systems deployed on the cloud-edge continuum enabled by 5G. Correspondingly, distributed systems' behavior is becoming more non-deterministic in nature. This evolution of distributed systems requires the definition of new assurance approaches for the verification of non-functional properties. Certification, the most popular assurance technique for system and software verification, is not immediately applicable to systems whose behavior is determined by Machine Learning-based inference. However, there is an increasing push from policy makers, regulators, and industrial stakeholders towards the definition of techniques for the certification of non-functional properties (e.g., fairness, robustness, privacy) of ML. This article analyzes the challenges and deficiencies of current certification schemes, discusses open research issues and proposes a first certification scheme for ML-based distributed systems.

Conventional federated learning algorithms train a single global model by leveraging all participating clients' data. However, due to heterogeneity in client generative distributions and predictive models, these approaches may not appropriately approximate the predictive process, converge to an optimal state, or generalize to new clients. We study personalization and generalization in stateless cross-device federated learning setups assuming heterogeneity in client data distributions and predictive models. We first propose a hierarchical generative model and formalize it using Bayesian Inference. We then approximate this process using Variational Inference to train our model efficiently. We call this algorithm Federated Variational Inference (FedVI). We use PAC-Bayes analysis to provide generalization bounds for FedVI. We evaluate our model on FEMNIST and CIFAR-100 image classification and show that FedVI beats the state-of-the-art on both tasks.

When machine learning models are trained continually on a sequence of tasks, they are liable to forget what they learned on previous tasks -- a phenomenon known as catastrophic forgetting. Proposed solutions to catastrophic forgetting tend to involve storing information about past tasks, meaning that memory usage is a chief consideration in determining their practicality. This paper proposes a memory-efficient solution to catastrophic forgetting, improving upon an established algorithm known as orthogonal gradient descent (OGD). OGD utilizes prior model gradients to find weight updates that preserve performance on prior datapoints. However, since the memory cost of storing prior model gradients grows with the runtime of the algorithm, OGD is ill-suited to continual learning over arbitrarily long time horizons. To address this problem, this paper proposes SketchOGD. SketchOGD employs an online sketching algorithm to compress model gradients as they are encountered into a matrix of a fixed, user-determined size. In contrast to existing memory-efficient variants of OGD, SketchOGD runs online without the need for advance knowledge of the total number of tasks, is simple to implement, and is more amenable to analysis. We provide theoretical guarantees on the approximation error of the relevant sketches under a novel metric suited to the downstream task of OGD. Experimentally, we find that SketchOGD tends to outperform current state-of-the-art variants of OGD given a fixed memory budget.

Personalized federated learning (PFL) aims to produce the greatest personalized model for each client to face an insurmountable problem--data heterogeneity in real FL systems. However, almost all existing works have to face large communication burdens and the risk of disruption if the central server fails. Only limited efforts have been used in a decentralized way but still suffers from inferior representation ability due to sharing the full model with its neighbors. Therefore, in this paper, we propose a personalized FL framework with a decentralized partial model training called DFedAlt. It personalizes the "right" components in the modern deep models by alternately updating the shared and personal parameters to train partially personalized models in a peer-to-peer manner. To further promote the shared parameters aggregation process, we propose DFedSalt integrating the local Sharpness Aware Minimization (SAM) optimizer to update the shared parameters. It adds proper perturbation in the direction of the gradient to overcome the shared model inconsistency across clients. Theoretically, we provide convergence analysis of both algorithms in the general non-convex setting for decentralized partial model training in PFL. Our experiments on several real-world data with various data partition settings demonstrate that (i) decentralized training is more suitable for partial personalization, which results in state-of-the-art (SOTA) accuracy compared with the SOTA PFL baselines; (ii) the shared parameters with proper perturbation make partial personalized FL more suitable for decentralized training, where DFedSalt achieves most competitive performance.

Deep models, e.g., CNNs and Vision Transformers, have achieved impressive achievements in many vision tasks in the closed world. However, novel classes emerge from time to time in our ever-changing world, requiring a learning system to acquire new knowledge continually. For example, a robot needs to understand new instructions, and an opinion monitoring system should analyze emerging topics every day. Class-Incremental Learning (CIL) enables the learner to incorporate the knowledge of new classes incrementally and build a universal classifier among all seen classes. Correspondingly, when directly training the model with new class instances, a fatal problem occurs -- the model tends to catastrophically forget the characteristics of former ones, and its performance drastically degrades. There have been numerous efforts to tackle catastrophic forgetting in the machine learning community. In this paper, we survey comprehensively recent advances in deep class-incremental learning and summarize these methods from three aspects, i.e., data-centric, model-centric, and algorithm-centric. We also provide a rigorous and unified evaluation of 16 methods in benchmark image classification tasks to find out the characteristics of different algorithms empirically. Furthermore, we notice that the current comparison protocol ignores the influence of memory budget in model storage, which may result in unfair comparison and biased results. Hence, we advocate fair comparison by aligning the memory budget in evaluation, as well as several memory-agnostic performance measures. The source code to reproduce these evaluations is available at //github.com/zhoudw-zdw/CIL_Survey/

Federated Learning (FL) is a decentralized machine-learning paradigm, in which a global server iteratively averages the model parameters of local users without accessing their data. User heterogeneity has imposed significant challenges to FL, which can incur drifted global models that are slow to converge. Knowledge Distillation has recently emerged to tackle this issue, by refining the server model using aggregated knowledge from heterogeneous users, other than directly averaging their model parameters. This approach, however, depends on a proxy dataset, making it impractical unless such a prerequisite is satisfied. Moreover, the ensemble knowledge is not fully utilized to guide local model learning, which may in turn affect the quality of the aggregated model. Inspired by the prior art, we propose a data-free knowledge distillation} approach to address heterogeneous FL, where the server learns a lightweight generator to ensemble user information in a data-free manner, which is then broadcasted to users, regulating local training using the learned knowledge as an inductive bias. Empirical studies powered by theoretical implications show that, our approach facilitates FL with better generalization performance using fewer communication rounds, compared with the state-of-the-art.

It has been a long time that computer architecture and systems are optimized to enable efficient execution of machine learning (ML) algorithms or models. Now, it is time to reconsider the relationship between ML and systems, and let ML transform the way that computer architecture and systems are designed. This embraces a twofold meaning: the improvement of designers' productivity, and the completion of the virtuous cycle. In this paper, we present a comprehensive review of work that applies ML for system design, which can be grouped into two major categories, ML-based modelling that involves predictions of performance metrics or some other criteria of interest, and ML-based design methodology that directly leverages ML as the design tool. For ML-based modelling, we discuss existing studies based on their target level of system, ranging from the circuit level to the architecture/system level. For ML-based design methodology, we follow a bottom-up path to review current work, with a scope of (micro-)architecture design (memory, branch prediction, NoC), coordination between architecture/system and workload (resource allocation and management, data center management, and security), compiler, and design automation. We further provide a future vision of opportunities and potential directions, and envision that applying ML for computer architecture and systems would thrive in the community.

Few sample learning (FSL) is significant and challenging in the field of machine learning. The capability of learning and generalizing from very few samples successfully is a noticeable demarcation separating artificial intelligence and human intelligence since humans can readily establish their cognition to novelty from just a single or a handful of examples whereas machine learning algorithms typically entail hundreds or thousands of supervised samples to guarantee generalization ability. Despite the long history dated back to the early 2000s and the widespread attention in recent years with booming deep learning technologies, little surveys or reviews for FSL are available until now. In this context, we extensively review 200+ papers of FSL spanning from the 2000s to 2019 and provide a timely and comprehensive survey for FSL. In this survey, we review the evolution history as well as the current progress on FSL, categorize FSL approaches into the generative model based and discriminative model based kinds in principle, and emphasize particularly on the meta learning based FSL approaches. We also summarize several recently emerging extensional topics of FSL and review the latest advances on these topics. Furthermore, we highlight the important FSL applications covering many research hotspots in computer vision, natural language processing, audio and speech, reinforcement learning and robotic, data analysis, etc. Finally, we conclude the survey with a discussion on promising trends in the hope of providing guidance and insights to follow-up researches.

We propose a novel attention gate (AG) model for medical imaging that automatically learns to focus on target structures of varying shapes and sizes. Models trained with AGs implicitly learn to suppress irrelevant regions in an input image while highlighting salient features useful for a specific task. This enables us to eliminate the necessity of using explicit external tissue/organ localisation modules of cascaded convolutional neural networks (CNNs). AGs can be easily integrated into standard CNN architectures such as the U-Net model with minimal computational overhead while increasing the model sensitivity and prediction accuracy. The proposed Attention U-Net architecture is evaluated on two large CT abdominal datasets for multi-class image segmentation. Experimental results show that AGs consistently improve the prediction performance of U-Net across different datasets and training sizes while preserving computational efficiency. The code for the proposed architecture is publicly available.
