Autonomous vehicles and Advanced Driving Assistance Systems (ADAS) have the potential to radically change the way we travel. Many such vehicles currently rely on segmentation and object detection algorithms to detect and track objects around its surrounding. The data collected from the vehicles are often sent to cloud servers to facilitate continual/life-long learning of these algorithms. Considering the bandwidth constraints, the data is compressed before sending it to servers, where it is typically decompressed for training and analysis. In this work, we propose the use of a learning-based compression Codec to reduce the overhead in latency incurred for the decompression operation in the standard pipeline. We demonstrate that the learned compressed representation can also be used to perform tasks like semantic segmentation in addition to decompression to obtain the images. We experimentally validate the proposed pipeline on the Cityscapes dataset, where we achieve a compression factor up to $66 \times$ while preserving the information required to perform segmentation with a dice coefficient of $0.84$ as compared to $0.88$ achieved using decompressed images while reducing the overall compute by $11\%$.

Nowadays, the versatile capabilities of Pre-trained Large Language Models (LLMs) have attracted much attention from the industry. However, some vertical domains are more interested in the in-domain capabilities of LLMs. For the Networks domain, we present NetEval, an evaluation set for measuring the comprehensive capabilities of LLMs in Network Operations (NetOps). NetEval is designed for evaluating the commonsense knowledge and inference ability in NetOps in a multi-lingual context. NetEval consists of 5,732 questions about NetOps, covering five different sub-domains of NetOps. With NetEval, we systematically evaluate the NetOps capability of 26 publicly available LLMs. The results show that only GPT-4 can achieve a performance competitive to humans. However, some open models like LLaMA 2 demonstrate significant potential.

Robotic surgical subtask automation has the potential to reduce the per-patient workload of human surgeons. There are a variety of surgical subtasks that require geometric information of subsurface anatomy, such as the location of tumors, which necessitates accurate and efficient surgical sensing. In this work, we propose an automated sensing method that maps 3D subsurface anatomy to provide such geometric knowledge. We model the anatomy via a Bayesian Hilbert map-based probabilistic 3D occupancy map. Using the 3D occupancy map, we plan sensing paths on the surface of the anatomy via a graph search algorithm, $A^*$ search, with a cost function that enables the trajectories generated to balance between exploration of unsensed regions and refining the existing probabilistic understanding. We demonstrate the performance of our proposed method by comparing it against 3 different methods in several anatomical environments including a real-life CT scan dataset. The experimental results show that our method efficiently detects relevant subsurface anatomy with shorter trajectories than the comparison methods, and the resulting occupancy map achieves high accuracy.

Reinforcement Learning (RL) has the potential to surpass human performance in driving without needing any expert supervision. Despite its promise, the state-of-the-art in sensorimotor self-driving is dominated by imitation learning methods due to the inherent shortcomings of RL algorithms. Nonetheless, RL agents are able to discover highly successful policies when provided with privileged ground truth representations of the environment. In this work, we investigate what separates privileged RL agents from sensorimotor agents for urban driving in order to bridge the gap between the two. We propose vision-based deep learning models to approximate the privileged representations from sensor data. In particular, we identify aspects of state representation that are crucial for the success of the RL agent such as desired route generation and stop zone prediction, and propose solutions to gradually develop less privileged RL agents. We also observe that bird's-eye-view models trained on offline datasets do not generalize to online RL training due to distribution mismatch. Through rigorous evaluation on the CARLA simulation environment, we shed light on the significance of the state representations in RL for autonomous driving and point to unresolved challenges for future research.

Over the last years we witnessed a renewed interest towards Traffic Classification (TC) captivated by the rise of Deep Learning (DL). Yet, the vast majority of TC literature lacks code artifacts, performance assessments across datasets and reference comparisons against Machine Learning (ML) methods. Among those works, a recent study from IMC'22 [17] is worth of attention since it adopts recent DL methodologies (namely, few-shot learning, self-supervision via contrastive learning and data augmentation) appealing for networking as they enable to learn from a few samples and transfer across datasets. The main result of [17] on the UCDAVIS19, ISCX-VPN and ISCX-Tor datasets is that, with such DL methodologies, 100 input samples are enough to achieve very high accuracy using an input representation called "flowpic" (i.e., a per-flow 2d histograms of the packets size evolution over time). In this paper (i) we reproduce [17] on the same datasets and (ii) we replicate its most salient aspect (the importance of data augmentation) on three additional public datasets, MIRAGE-19, MIRAGE-22 and UTMOBILENET21. While we confirm most of the original results, we also found a 20% accuracy drop on some of the investigated scenarios due to a data shift in the original dataset that we uncovered. Additionally, our study validates that the data augmentation strategies studied in [17] perform well on other datasets too. In the spirit of reproducibility and replicability we make all artifacts (code and data) available at [10].

In early 2021 the United States Capitol in Washington was stormed during a riot and violent attack. A similar storming occurred in Brazil in 2023. Although both attacks were instances in longer sequences of events, these have provided a testimony for many observers who had claimed that online actions, including the propagation of disinformation, have offline consequences. Soon after, a number of papers have been published about the relation between online disinformation and offline violence, among other related relations. Hitherto, the effects upon political protests have been unexplored. This paper thus evaluates such effects with a time series cross-sectional sample of 125 countries in a period between 2000 and 2019. The results are mixed. Based on Bayesian multi-level regression modeling, (i) there indeed is an effect between online disinformation and offline protests, but the effect is partially meditated by political polarization. The results are clearer in a sample of countries belonging to the European Economic Area. With this sample, (ii) offline protest counts increase from online disinformation disseminated by domestic governments, political parties, and politicians as well as by foreign governments. Furthermore, (iii) Internet shutdowns tend to decrease the counts, although, paradoxically, the absence of governmental online monitoring of social media tends to also decrease these. With these results, the paper contributes to the blossoming disinformation research by modeling the impact of disinformation upon offline phenomenon. The contribution is important due to the various policy measures planned or already enacted.

Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) have gained significant momentum recently due to their capability to learn on unstructured graph data. Dynamic GNNs (DGNNs) are the current state-of-the-art for point cloud applications; such applications (viz. autonomous driving) require real-time processing at the edge with tight latency and memory constraints. Conducting performance analysis on such DGNNs, thus, becomes a crucial task to evaluate network suitability. This paper presents a profiling analysis of EdgeConv-based DGNNs applied to point cloud inputs. We assess their inference performance in terms of end-to-end latency and memory consumption on state-of-the-art CPU and GPU platforms. The EdgeConv layer has two stages: (1) dynamic graph generation using k-Nearest Neighbors (kNN) and, (2) node feature updation. The addition of dynamic graph generation via kNN in each (EdgeConv) layer enhances network performance compared to networks that work with the same static graph in each layer; such performance enhancement comes, however, at the added computational cost associated with the dynamic graph generation stage (via kNN algorithm). Understanding its costs is essential for identifying the performance bottleneck and exploring potential avenues for hardware acceleration. To this end, this paper aims to shed light on the performance characteristics of EdgeConv-based DGNNs for point cloud inputs. Our performance analysis on a state-of-the-art EdgeConv network for classification shows that the dynamic graph construction via kNN takes up upwards of 95% of network latency on the GPU and almost 90% on the CPU. Moreover, we propose a quasi-Dynamic Graph Neural Network (qDGNN) that halts dynamic graph updates after a specific depth within the network to significantly reduce the latency on both CPU and GPU whilst matching the original networks inference accuracy.

The shortest path network interdiction (SPNI) problem poses significant computational challenges due to its NP-hardness. Current solutions, primarily based on integer programming methods, are inefficient for large-scale instances. In this paper, we introduce a novel hybrid algorithm that can utilize Ising Processing Units (IPUs) alongside classical solvers. This approach decomposes the problem into manageable sub-problems, which are then offloaded to the slow but high-quality classical solvers or IPU. Results are subsequently recombined to form a global solution. Our method demonstrates comparable quality to existing whole problem solvers while reducing computational time for large-scale instances. Furthermore, our approach is amenable to parallelization, allowing for simultaneous processing of decomposed sub-problems.

Recommender systems have been widely applied in different real-life scenarios to help us find useful information. Recently, Reinforcement Learning (RL) based recommender systems have become an emerging research topic. It often surpasses traditional recommendation models even most deep learning-based methods, owing to its interactive nature and autonomous learning ability. Nevertheless, there are various challenges of RL when applying in recommender systems. Toward this end, we firstly provide a thorough overview, comparisons, and summarization of RL approaches for five typical recommendation scenarios, following three main categories of RL: value-function, policy search, and Actor-Critic. Then, we systematically analyze the challenges and relevant solutions on the basis of existing literature. Finally, under discussion for open issues of RL and its limitations of recommendation, we highlight some potential research directions in this field.

Deep convolutional neural networks (CNNs) have recently achieved great success in many visual recognition tasks. However, existing deep neural network models are computationally expensive and memory intensive, hindering their deployment in devices with low memory resources or in applications with strict latency requirements. Therefore, a natural thought is to perform model compression and acceleration in deep networks without significantly decreasing the model performance. During the past few years, tremendous progress has been made in this area. In this paper, we survey the recent advanced techniques for compacting and accelerating CNNs model developed. These techniques are roughly categorized into four schemes: parameter pruning and sharing, low-rank factorization, transferred/compact convolutional filters, and knowledge distillation. Methods of parameter pruning and sharing will be described at the beginning, after that the other techniques will be introduced. For each scheme, we provide insightful analysis regarding the performance, related applications, advantages, and drawbacks etc. Then we will go through a few very recent additional successful methods, for example, dynamic capacity networks and stochastic depths networks. After that, we survey the evaluation matrix, the main datasets used for evaluating the model performance and recent benchmarking efforts. Finally, we conclude this paper, discuss remaining challenges and possible directions on this topic.

Convolutional networks (ConvNets) have achieved great successes in various challenging vision tasks. However, the performance of ConvNets would degrade when encountering the domain shift. The domain adaptation is more significant while challenging in the field of biomedical image analysis, where cross-modality data have largely different distributions. Given that annotating the medical data is especially expensive, the supervised transfer learning approaches are not quite optimal. In this paper, we propose an unsupervised domain adaptation framework with adversarial learning for cross-modality biomedical image segmentations. Specifically, our model is based on a dilated fully convolutional network for pixel-wise prediction. Moreover, we build a plug-and-play domain adaptation module (DAM) to map the target input to features which are aligned with source domain feature space. A domain critic module (DCM) is set up for discriminating the feature space of both domains. We optimize the DAM and DCM via an adversarial loss without using any target domain label. Our proposed method is validated by adapting a ConvNet trained with MRI images to unpaired CT data for cardiac structures segmentations, and achieved very promising results.
