Hyperparameter optimization (HPO) is crucial for machine learning algorithms to achieve satisfactory performance, whose progress has been boosted by related benchmarks. Nonetheless, existing efforts in benchmarking all focus on HPO for traditional centralized learning while ignoring federated learning (FL), a promising paradigm for collaboratively learning models from dispersed data. In this paper, we first identify some uniqueness of HPO for FL algorithms from various aspects. Due to this uniqueness, existing HPO benchmarks no longer satisfy the need to compare HPO methods in the FL setting. To facilitate the research of HPO in the FL setting, we propose and implement a benchmark suite FedHPO-B that incorporates comprehensive FL tasks, enables efficient function evaluations, and eases continuing extensions. We also conduct extensive experiments based on FedHPO-B to benchmark a few HPO methods. We open-source FedHPO-B at //github.com/alibaba/FederatedScope/tree/master/benchmark/FedHPOB and will maintain it actively.

Personalised federated learning (FL) aims at collaboratively learning a machine learning model taylored for each client. Albeit promising advances have been made in this direction, most of existing approaches works do not allow for uncertainty quantification which is crucial in many applications. In addition, personalisation in the cross-device setting still involves important issues, especially for new clients or those having small number of observations. This paper aims at filling these gaps. To this end, we propose a novel methodology coined FedPop by recasting personalised FL into the population modeling paradigm where clients' models involve fixed common population parameters and random effects, aiming at explaining data heterogeneity. To derive convergence guarantees for our scheme, we introduce a new class of federated stochastic optimisation algorithms which relies on Markov chain Monte Carlo methods. Compared to existing personalised FL methods, the proposed methodology has important benefits: it is robust to client drift, practical for inference on new clients, and above all, enables uncertainty quantification under mild computational and memory overheads. We provide non-asymptotic convergence guarantees for the proposed algorithms and illustrate their performances on various personalised federated learning tasks.

Recent industrial and academic research has focused on data-driven analytics with smartphones by collecting user interaction, context, and device systems data through Application Programming interfaces (APIs) and sensors. The Android OS provides various APIs to collect such mobile usage and sensor data for third-party developers. Usage Statistics API (US API) and Accessibility Service API (AS API) are representative Android APIs for collecting app usage data and are used for various research purposes as they can collect fine-grained interaction data (e.g., app usage history, user interaction type). Furthermore, other sensor APIs help to collect a user's context and device state data, along with AS/US APIs. This review investigates mobile usage and sensor data-driven research using AS/US APIs, by categorizing the research purposes and the data types. In this paper, the surveyed studies are classified as follows: five themes and 21 subthemes, and a four-layer hierarchical data classification structure. This allows us to identify a data usage trend and derive insight into data collection according to research purposes. Several limitations and future research directions of mobile usage and sensor data-driven analytics research are discussed, including the impact of changes in the Android API versions on research, the privacy and data quality issues, and the mitigation of reproducibility risks with standardized data typology.

This paper investigates the problem of regret minimization in linear time-varying (LTV) dynamical systems. Due to the simultaneous presence of uncertainty and non-stationarity, designing online control algorithms for unknown LTV systems remains a challenging task. At a cost of NP-hard offline planning, prior works have introduced online convex optimization algorithms, although they suffer from nonparametric rate of regret. In this paper, we propose the first computationally tractable online algorithm with regret guarantees that avoids offline planning over the state linear feedback policies. Our algorithm is based on the optimism in the face of uncertainty (OFU) principle in which we optimistically select the best model in a high confidence region. Our algorithm is then more explorative when compared to previous approaches. To overcome non-stationarity, we propose either a restarting strategy (R-OFU) or a sliding window (SW-OFU) strategy. With proper configuration, our algorithm is attains sublinear regret $O(T^{2/3})$. These algorithms utilize data from the current phase for tracking variations on the system dynamics. We corroborate our theoretical findings with numerical experiments, which highlight the effectiveness of our methods. To the best of our knowledge, our study establishes the first model-based online algorithm with regret guarantees under LTV dynamical systems.

Multi-scenario learning (MSL) enables a service provider to cater for users' fine-grained demands by separating services for different user sectors, e.g., by user's geographical region. Under each scenario there is a need to optimize multiple task-specific targets e.g., click through rate and conversion rate, known as multi-task learning (MTL). Recent solutions for MSL and MTL are mostly based on the multi-gate mixture-of-experts (MMoE) architecture. MMoE structure is typically static and its design requires domain-specific knowledge, making it less effective in handling both MSL and MTL. In this paper, we propose a novel Automatic Expert Selection framework for Multi-scenario and Multi-task search, named AESM^{2}. AESM^{2} integrates both MSL and MTL into a unified framework with an automatic structure learning. Specifically, AESM^{2} stacks multi-task layers over multi-scenario layers. This hierarchical design enables us to flexibly establish intrinsic connections between different scenarios, and at the same time also supports high-level feature extraction for different tasks. At each multi-scenario/multi-task layer, a novel expert selection algorithm is proposed to automatically identify scenario-/task-specific and shared experts for each input. Experiments over two real-world large-scale datasets demonstrate the effectiveness of AESM^{2} over a battery of strong baselines. Online A/B test also shows substantial performance gain on multiple metrics. Currently, AESM^{2} has been deployed online for serving major traffic.

We systematically describe the problem of simultaneous surrogate modeling of mixed variables (i.e., continuous, integer and categorical variables) in the Bayesian optimization (BO) context. We provide a unified hybrid model using both Monte-Carlo tree search (MCTS) and Gaussian processes (GP) that encompasses and generalizes multiple state-of-the-art mixed BO surrogates. Based on the architecture, we propose applying a new dynamic model selection criterion among novel candidate families of covariance kernels, including non-stationary kernels and associated families. Different benchmark problems are studied and presented to support the superiority of our model, along with results highlighting the effectiveness of our method compared to most state-of-the-art mixed-variable methods in BO.

Analyzing time series in the frequency domain enables the development of powerful tools for investigating the second-order characteristics of multivariate stochastic processes. Parameters like the spectral density matrix and its inverse, the coherence or the partial coherence, encode comprehensively the complex linear relations between the component processes of the multivariate system. In this paper, we develop inference procedures for such parameters in a high-dimensional, time series setup. In particular, we first focus on the derivation of consistent estimators of the coherence and, more importantly, of the partial coherence which possess manageable limiting distributions that are suitable for testing purposes. Statistical tests of the hypothesis that the maximum over frequencies of the coherence, respectively, of the partial coherence, do not exceed a prespecified threshold value are developed. Our approach allows for testing hypotheses for individual coherences and/or partial coherences as well as for multiple testing of large sets of such parameters. In the latter case, a consistent procedure to control the false discovery rate is developed. The finite sample performance of the inference procedures proposed is investigated by means of simulations and applications to the construction of graphical interaction models for brain connectivity based on EEG data are presented.

Solving combinatorial optimization (CO) on graphs is among the fundamental tasks for upper-stream applications in data mining, machine learning and operations research. Despite the inherent NP-hard challenge for CO, heuristics, branch-and-bound, learning-based solvers are developed to tackle CO problems as accurately as possible given limited time budgets. However, a practical metric for the sensitivity of CO solvers remains largely unexplored. Existing theoretical metrics require the optimal solution which is infeasible, and the gradient-based adversarial attack metric from deep learning is not compatible with non-learning solvers that are usually non-differentiable. In this paper, we develop the first practically feasible robustness metric for general combinatorial optimization solvers. We develop a no worse optimal cost guarantee thus do not require optimal solutions, and we tackle the non-differentiable challenge by resorting to black-box adversarial attack methods. Extensive experiments are conducted on 14 unique combinations of solvers and CO problems, and we demonstrate that the performance of state-of-the-art solvers like Gurobi can degenerate by over 20% under the given time limit bound on the hard instances discovered by our robustness metric, raising concerns about the robustness of combinatorial optimization solvers.

We present a solver for Mixed Integer Programs (MIP) developed for the MIP competition 2022. Given the 10 minutes bound on the computational time established by the rules of the competition, our method focuses on finding a feasible solution and improves it through a Branch-and-Bound algorithm. Another rule of the competition allows the use of up to 8 threads. Each thread is given a different primal heuristic, which has been tuned by hyper-parameters, to find a feasible solution. In every thread, once a feasible solution is found, we stop and we use a Branch-and-Bound method, embedded with local search heuristics, to ameliorate the incumbent solution. The three variants of the Diving heuristic that we implemented manage to find a feasible solution for 10 instances of the training data set. These heuristics are the best performing among the heuristics that we implemented. Our Branch-and-Bound algorithm is effective on a small portion of the training data set, and it manages to find an incumbent feasible solution for an instance that we could not solve with the Diving heuristics. Overall, our combined methods, when implemented with extensive computational power, can solve 11 of the 19 problems of the training data set within the time limit. Our submission to the MIP competition was awarded the "Outstanding Student Submission" honorable mention.

Transformer, the latest technological advance of deep learning, has gained prevalence in natural language processing or computer vision. Since medical imaging bear some resemblance to computer vision, it is natural to inquire about the status quo of Transformers in medical imaging and ask the question: can the Transformer models transform medical imaging? In this paper, we attempt to make a response to the inquiry. After a brief introduction of the fundamentals of Transformers, especially in comparison with convolutional neural networks (CNNs), and highlighting key defining properties that characterize the Transformers, we offer a comprehensive review of the state-of-the-art Transformer-based approaches for medical imaging and exhibit current research progresses made in the areas of medical image segmentation, recognition, detection, registration, reconstruction, enhancement, etc. In particular, what distinguishes our review lies in its organization based on the Transformer's key defining properties, which are mostly derived from comparing the Transformer and CNN, and its type of architecture, which specifies the manner in which the Transformer and CNN are combined, all helping the readers to best understand the rationale behind the reviewed approaches. We conclude with discussions of future perspectives.
