In recent years, DL has developed rapidly, and personalized services are exploring using DL algorithms to improve the performance of the recommendation system. For personalized services, a successful recommendation consists of two parts: attracting users to click the item and users being willing to consume the item. If both tasks need to be predicted at the same time, traditional recommendation systems generally train two independent models. This approach is cumbersome and does not effectively model the relationship between the two subtasks of "click-consumption". Therefore, in order to improve the success rate of recommendation and reduce computational costs, researchers are trying to model multi-task learning. At present, existing multi-task learning models generally adopt hard parameter sharing or soft parameter sharing architecture, but these two architectures each have certain problems. Therefore, in this work, we propose a novel recommendation model based on real recommendation scenarios, Deep Cross network based on RNN for partial parameter sharing (DCRNN). The model has three innovations: 1) It adopts the idea of cross network and uses RNN network to cross-process the features, thereby effectively improves the expressive ability of the model; 2) It innovatively proposes the structure of partial parameter sharing; 3) It can effectively capture the potential correlation between different tasks to optimize the efficiency and methods for learning different tasks.

Semi-supervised object detection is crucial for 3D scene understanding, efficiently addressing the limitation of acquiring large-scale 3D bounding box annotations. Existing methods typically employ a teacher-student framework with pseudo-labeling to leverage unlabeled point clouds. However, producing reliable pseudo-labels in a diverse 3D space still remains challenging. In this work, we propose Diffusion-SS3D, a new perspective of enhancing the quality of pseudo-labels via the diffusion model for semi-supervised 3D object detection. Specifically, we include noises to produce corrupted 3D object size and class label distributions, and then utilize the diffusion model as a denoising process to obtain bounding box outputs. Moreover, we integrate the diffusion model into the teacher-student framework, so that the denoised bounding boxes can be used to improve pseudo-label generation, as well as the entire semi-supervised learning process. We conduct experiments on the ScanNet and SUN RGB-D benchmark datasets to demonstrate that our approach achieves state-of-the-art performance against existing methods. We also present extensive analysis to understand how our diffusion model design affects performance in semi-supervised learning.
We investigate the problem of decentralized multi-agent navigation tasks, where multiple agents need to reach initially unassigned targets in a limited time. Classical planning-based methods suffer from expensive computation overhead at each step and offer limited expressiveness for complex cooperation strategies. In contrast, reinforcement learning (RL) has recently become a popular paradigm for addressing this issue. However, RL struggles with low data efficiency and cooperation when directly exploring (nearly) optimal policies in the large search space, especially with an increased agent number (e.g., 10+ agents) or in complex environments (e.g., 3D simulators). In this paper, we propose Multi-Agent Scalable GNN-based P lanner (MASP), a goal-conditioned hierarchical planner for navigation tasks with a substantial number of agents. MASP adopts a hierarchical framework to divide a large search space into multiple smaller spaces, thereby reducing the space complexity and accelerating training convergence. We also leverage graph neural networks (GNN) to model the interaction between agents and goals, improving goal achievement. Besides, to enhance generalization capabilities in scenarios with unseen team sizes, we divide agents into multiple groups, each with a previously trained number of agents. The results demonstrate that MASP outperforms classical planning-based competitors and RL baselines, achieving a nearly 100% success rate with minimal training data in both multi-agent particle environments (MPE) with 50 agents and a quadrotor 3-dimensional environment (OmniDrones) with 20 agents. Furthermore, the learned policy showcases zero-shot generalization across unseen team sizes.
Relational databases are extensively utilized in a variety of modern information system applications, and they always carry valuable data patterns. There are a huge number of data mining or machine learning tasks conducted on relational databases. However, it is worth noting that there are limited machine learning models specifically designed for relational databases, as most models are primarily tailored for single table settings. Consequently, the prevalent approach for training machine learning models on data stored in relational databases involves performing feature engineering to merge the data from multiple tables into a single table and subsequently applying single table models. This approach not only requires significant effort in feature engineering but also destroys the inherent relational structure present in the data. To address these challenges, we propose a novel framework called Graph-based Feature Synthesis (GFS). GFS formulates the relational database as a heterogeneous graph, thereby preserving the relational structure within the data. By leveraging the inductive bias from single table models, GFS effectively captures the intricate relationships inherent in each table. Additionally, the whole framework eliminates the need for manual feature engineering. In the extensive experiment over four real-world multi-table relational databases, GFS outperforms previous methods designed for relational databases, demonstrating its superior performance.
The autonomous driving community has shown significant interest in 3D occupancy prediction, driven by its exceptional geometric perception and general object recognition capabilities. To achieve this, current works try to construct a Tri-Perspective View (TPV) or Occupancy (OCC) representation extending from the Bird-Eye-View perception. However, compressed views like TPV representation lose 3D geometry information while raw and sparse OCC representation requires heavy but reducant computational costs. To address the above limitations, we propose Compact Occupancy TRansformer (COTR), with a geometry-aware occupancy encoder and a semantic-aware group decoder to reconstruct a compact 3D OCC representation. The occupancy encoder first generates a compact geometrical OCC feature through efficient explicit-implicit view transformation. Then, the occupancy decoder further enhances the semantic discriminability of the compact OCC representation by a coarse-to-fine semantic grouping strategy. Empirical experiments show that there are evident performance gains across multiple baselines, e.g., COTR outperforms baselines with a relative improvement of 8%-15%, demonstrating the superiority of our method.
Intelligent driving systems aim to achieve a zero-collision mobility experience, requiring interdisciplinary efforts to enhance safety performance. This work focuses on risk identification, the process of identifying and analyzing risks stemming from dynamic traffic participants and unexpected events. While significant advances have been made in the community, the current evaluation of different risk identification algorithms uses independent datasets, leading to difficulty in direct comparison and hindering collective progress toward safety performance enhancement. To address this limitation, we introduce \textbf{RiskBench}, a large-scale scenario-based benchmark for risk identification. We design a scenario taxonomy and augmentation pipeline to enable a systematic collection of ground truth risks under diverse scenarios. We assess the ability of ten algorithms to (1) detect and locate risks, (2) anticipate risks, and (3) facilitate decision-making. We conduct extensive experiments and summarize future research on risk identification. Our aim is to encourage collaborative endeavors in achieving a society with zero collisions. We have made our dataset and benchmark toolkit publicly on the project page: //hcis-lab.github.io/RiskBench/
Optical tactile sensors have recently become popular. They provide high spatial resolution, but struggle to offer fine temporal resolutions. To overcome this shortcoming, we study the idea of replacing the RGB camera with an event-based camera and introduce a new event-based optical tactile sensor called Evetac. Along with hardware design, we develop touch processing algorithms to process its measurements online at 1000 Hz. We devise an efficient algorithm to track the elastomer's deformation through the imprinted markers despite the sensor's sparse output. Benchmarking experiments demonstrate Evetac's capabilities of sensing vibrations up to 498 Hz, reconstructing shear forces, and significantly reducing data rates compared to RGB optical tactile sensors. Moreover, Evetac's output and the marker tracking provide meaningful features for learning data-driven slip detection and prediction models. The learned models form the basis for a robust and adaptive closed-loop grasp controller capable of handling a wide range of objects. We believe that fast and efficient event-based tactile sensors like Evetac will be essential for bringing human-like manipulation capabilities to robotics. The sensor design is open-sourced at //sites.google.com/view/evetac .
We explore security aspects of a new computing paradigm that combines novel memristors and traditional Complimentary Metal Oxide Semiconductor (CMOS) to construct a highly efficient analog and/or digital fabric that is especially well-suited to Machine Learning (ML) inference processors for Radio Frequency (RF) signals. Memristors have different properties than traditional CMOS which can potentially be exploited by attackers. In addition, the mixed signal approximate computing model has different vulnerabilities than traditional digital implementations. However both the memristor and the ML computation can be leveraged to create security mechanisms and countermeasures ranging from lightweight cryptography, identifiers (e.g. Physically Unclonable Functions (PUFs), fingerprints, and watermarks), entropy sources, hardware obfuscation and leakage/attack detection methods. Three different threat models are proposed: 1) Supply Chain, 2) Physical Attacks, and 3) Remote Attacks. For each threat model, potential vulnerabilities and defenses are identified. This survey reviews a variety of recent work from the hardware and ML security literature and proposes open problems for both attack and defense. The survey emphasizes the growing area of RF signal analysis and identification in terms of the commercial space, as well as military applications and threat models. We differ from other other recent surveys that target ML in general, neglecting RF applications.
With the rising popularity of Large Language Models (LLMs), there has been an increasing interest in compression techniques that enable their efficient deployment. This study focuses on the Post-Training Quantization (PTQ) of LLMs. Drawing from recent advances, our work introduces QuantEase, a layer-wise quantization framework where individual layers undergo separate quantization. The problem is framed as a discrete-structured non-convex optimization, prompting the development of algorithms rooted in Coordinate Descent (CD) techniques. These CD-based methods provide high-quality solutions to the complex non-convex layer-wise quantization problems. Notably, our CD-based approach features straightforward updates, relying solely on matrix and vector operations, circumventing the need for matrix inversion or decomposition. We also explore an outlier-aware variant of our approach, allowing for retaining significant weights (outliers) with complete precision. Our proposal attains state-of-the-art performance in terms of perplexity and zero-shot accuracy in empirical evaluations across various LLMs and datasets, with relative improvements up to 15% over methods such as GPTQ. Leveraging careful linear algebra optimizations, QuantEase can quantize models like Falcon-180B on a single NVIDIA A100 GPU in $\sim$3 hours. Particularly noteworthy is our outlier-aware algorithm's capability to achieve near or sub-3-bit quantization of LLMs with an acceptable drop in accuracy, obviating the need for non-uniform quantization or grouping techniques, improving upon methods such as SpQR by up to two times in terms of perplexity.
Defensive deception is a promising approach for cyberdefense. Although defensive deception is increasingly popular in the research community, there has not been a systematic investigation of its key components, the underlying principles, and its tradeoffs in various problem settings. This survey paper focuses on defensive deception research centered on game theory and machine learning, since these are prominent families of artificial intelligence approaches that are widely employed in defensive deception. This paper brings forth insights, lessons, and limitations from prior work. It closes with an outline of some research directions to tackle major gaps in current defensive deception research.
With the rise of knowledge graph (KG), question answering over knowledge base (KBQA) has attracted increasing attention in recent years. Despite much research has been conducted on this topic, it is still challenging to apply KBQA technology in industry because business knowledge and real-world questions can be rather complicated. In this paper, we present AliMe-KBQA, a bold attempt to apply KBQA in the E-commerce customer service field. To handle real knowledge and questions, we extend the classic "subject-predicate-object (SPO)" structure with property hierarchy, key-value structure and compound value type (CVT), and enhance traditional KBQA with constraints recognition and reasoning ability. We launch AliMe-KBQA in the Marketing Promotion scenario for merchants during the "Double 11" period in 2018 and other such promotional events afterwards. Online results suggest that AliMe-KBQA is not only able to gain better resolution and improve customer satisfaction, but also becomes the preferred knowledge management method by business knowledge staffs since it offers a more convenient and efficient management experience.
