In this paper, we focus on three sparse matrix operations that are relevant for machine learning applications, namely, the sparse-dense matrix multiplication (SPMM), the sampled dense-dense matrix multiplication (SDDMM), and the composition of the SDDMM with SPMM, also termed as FusedMM. We develop optimized implementations for SPMM, SDDMM, and FusedMM operations utilizing Intel oneAPI's Explicit SIMD (ESIMD) SYCL extension API. In contrast to CUDA or SYCL, the ESIMD API enables the writing of explicitly vectorized kernel code. Sparse matrix algorithms implemented with the ESIMD API achieved performance close to the peak of the targeted Intel Data Center GPU. We compare our performance results to Intel's oneMKL library on Intel GPUs and to a recent CUDA implementation for the sparse matrix operations on NVIDIA's V100 GPU and demonstrate that our implementations for sparse matrix operations outperform either.

In this paper, we introduce an innovative approach for extracting trajectories from a camera sensor in GPS-denied environments, leveraging visual odometry. The system takes video footage captured by a forward-facing camera mounted on a vehicle as input, with the output being a chain code representing the camera's trajectory. The proposed methodology involves several key steps. Firstly, we employ phase correlation between consecutive frames of the video to extract essential information. Subsequently, we introduce a novel chain code method termed "dynamic chain code," which is based on the x-shift values derived from the phase correlation. The third step involves determining directional changes (forward, left, right) by establishing thresholds and extracting the corresponding chain code. This extracted code is then stored in a buffer for further processing. Notably, our system outperforms traditional methods reliant on spatial features, exhibiting greater speed and robustness in noisy environments. Importantly, our approach operates without external camera calibration information. Moreover, by incorporating visual odometry, our system enhances its accuracy in estimating camera motion, providing a more comprehensive understanding of trajectory dynamics. Finally, the system culminates in the visualization of the normalized camera motion trajectory.
In this paper, we propose an novel methodology aimed at simulating the learning phenomenon of nystagmus through the application of differential blurring on datasets. Nystagmus is a biological phenomenon that influences human vision throughout life, notably by diminishing head shake from infancy to adulthood. Leveraging this concept, we address the issue of waste classification, a pressing global concern. The proposed framework comprises two modules, with the second module closely resembling the original Vision Transformer, a state of the art model model in classification tasks. The primary motivation behind our approach is to enhance the model's precision and adaptability, mirroring the real world conditions that the human visual system undergoes. This novel methodology surpasses the standard Vision Transformer model in waste classification tasks, exhibiting an improvement with a margin of 2%. This improvement underscores the potential of our methodology in improving model precision by drawing inspiration from human vision perception. Further research in the proposed methodology could yield greater performance results, and can extrapolated to other global tasks.
We study the problem of learning causal representations from unknown, latent interventions in a general setting, where the latent distribution is Gaussian but the mixing function is completely general. We prove strong identifiability results given unknown single-node interventions, i.e., without having access to the intervention targets. This generalizes prior works which have focused on weaker classes, such as linear maps or paired counterfactual data. This is also the first instance of causal identifiability from non-paired interventions for deep neural network embeddings. Our proof relies on carefully uncovering the high-dimensional geometric structure present in the data distribution after a non-linear density transformation, which we capture by analyzing quadratic forms of precision matrices of the latent distributions. Finally, we propose a contrastive algorithm to identify the latent variables in practice and evaluate its performance on various tasks.
The development of generative design driven by artificial intelligence algorithms is speedy. There are two research gaps in the current research: 1) Most studies only focus on the relationship between design elements and pay little attention to the external information of the site; 2) GAN and other traditional generative algorithms generate results with low resolution and insufficient details. To address these two problems, we integrate GAN, Stable diffusion multimodal large-scale image pre-training model to construct a full-process park generative design method: 1) First, construct a high-precision remote sensing object extraction system for automated extraction of urban environmental information; 2) Secondly, use GAN to construct a park design generation system based on the external environment, which can quickly infer and generate design schemes from urban environmental information; 3) Finally, introduce Stable Diffusion to optimize the design plan, fill in details, and expand the resolution of the plan by 64 times. This method can achieve a fully unmanned design automation workflow. The research results show that: 1) The relationship between the inside and outside of the site will affect the algorithm generation results. 2) Compared with traditional GAN algorithms, Stable diffusion significantly improve the information richness of the generated results.
In this paper, we explore transferability in learning between different attack classes in a network intrusion detection setup. We evaluate transferability of attack classes by training a deep learning model with a specific attack class and testing it on a separate attack class. We observe the effects of real and synthetically generated data augmentation techniques on transferability. We investigate the nature of observed transferability relationships, which can be either symmetric or asymmetric. We also examine explainability of the transferability relationships using the recursive feature elimination algorithm. We study data preprocessing techniques to boost model performance.

In this paper, we critically evaluate Bayesian methods for uncertainty estimation in deep learning, focusing on the widely applied Laplace approximation and its variants. Our findings reveal that the conventional method of fitting the Hessian matrix negatively impacts out-of-distribution (OOD) detection efficiency. We propose a different point of view, asserting that focusing solely on optimizing prior precision can yield more accurate uncertainty estimates in OOD detection while preserving adequate calibration metrics. Moreover, we demonstrate that this property is not connected to the training stage of a model but rather to its intrinsic properties. Through extensive experimental evaluation, we establish the superiority of our simplified approach over traditional methods in the out-of-distribution domain.
In this paper, we study the problem of efficiently and effectively embedding the high-dimensional spatio-spectral information of hyperspectral (HS) images, guided by feature diversity. Specifically, based on the theoretical formulation that feature diversity is correlated with the rank of the unfolded kernel matrix, we rectify 3D convolution by modifying its topology to enhance the rank upper-bound. This modification yields a rank-enhanced spatial-spectral symmetrical convolution set (ReS$^3$-ConvSet), which not only learns diverse and powerful feature representations but also saves network parameters. Additionally, we also propose a novel diversity-aware regularization (DA-Reg) term that directly acts on the feature maps to maximize independence among elements. To demonstrate the superiority of the proposed ReS$^3$-ConvSet and DA-Reg, we apply them to various HS image processing and analysis tasks, including denoising, spatial super-resolution, and classification. Extensive experiments show that the proposed approaches outperform state-of-the-art methods both quantitatively and qualitatively to a significant extent. The code is publicly available at //github.com/jinnh/ReSSS-ConvSet.
In pace with developments in the research field of artificial intelligence, knowledge graphs (KGs) have attracted a surge of interest from both academia and industry. As a representation of semantic relations between entities, KGs have proven to be particularly relevant for natural language processing (NLP), experiencing a rapid spread and wide adoption within recent years. Given the increasing amount of research work in this area, several KG-related approaches have been surveyed in the NLP research community. However, a comprehensive study that categorizes established topics and reviews the maturity of individual research streams remains absent to this day. Contributing to closing this gap, we systematically analyzed 507 papers from the literature on KGs in NLP. Our survey encompasses a multifaceted review of tasks, research types, and contributions. As a result, we present a structured overview of the research landscape, provide a taxonomy of tasks, summarize our findings, and highlight directions for future work.
Data augmentation, the artificial creation of training data for machine learning by transformations, is a widely studied research field across machine learning disciplines. While it is useful for increasing the generalization capabilities of a model, it can also address many other challenges and problems, from overcoming a limited amount of training data over regularizing the objective to limiting the amount data used to protect privacy. Based on a precise description of the goals and applications of data augmentation (C1) and a taxonomy for existing works (C2), this survey is concerned with data augmentation methods for textual classification and aims to achieve a concise and comprehensive overview for researchers and practitioners (C3). Derived from the taxonomy, we divided more than 100 methods into 12 different groupings and provide state-of-the-art references expounding which methods are highly promising (C4). Finally, research perspectives that may constitute a building block for future work are given (C5).
In this paper, we propose a deep reinforcement learning framework called GCOMB to learn algorithms that can solve combinatorial problems over large graphs. GCOMB mimics the greedy algorithm in the original problem and incrementally constructs a solution. The proposed framework utilizes Graph Convolutional Network (GCN) to generate node embeddings that predicts the potential nodes in the solution set from the entire node set. These embeddings enable an efficient training process to learn the greedy policy via Q-learning. Through extensive evaluation on several real and synthetic datasets containing up to a million nodes, we establish that GCOMB is up to 41% better than the state of the art, up to seven times faster than the greedy algorithm, robust and scalable to large dynamic networks.
