ProtoPNet and its follow-up variants (ProtoPNets) have attracted broad research interest for their intrinsic interpretability from prototypes and comparable accuracy to non-interpretable counterparts. However, it has been recently found that the interpretability of prototypes can be corrupted due to the semantic gap between similarity in latent space and that in input space. In this work, we make the first attempt to quantitatively evaluate the interpretability of prototype-based explanations, rather than solely qualitative evaluations by some visualization examples, which can be easily misled by cherry picks. To this end, we propose two evaluation metrics, termed consistency score and stability score, to evaluate the explanation consistency cross images and the explanation robustness against perturbations, both of which are essential for explanations taken into practice. Furthermore, we propose a shallow-deep feature alignment (SDFA) module and a score aggregation (SA) module to improve the interpretability of prototypes. We conduct systematical evaluation experiments and substantial discussions to uncover the interpretability of existing ProtoPNets. Experiments demonstrate that our method achieves significantly superior performance to the state-of-the-arts, under both the conventional qualitative evaluations and the proposed quantitative evaluations, in both accuracy and interpretability.

Transfer learning aims to improve the performance of a target model by leveraging data from related source populations, which is known to be especially helpful in cases with insufficient target data. In this paper, we study the problem of how to train a high-dimensional ridge regression model using limited target data and existing regression models trained in heterogeneous source populations. We consider a practical setting where only the parameter estimates of the fitted source models are accessible, instead of the individual-level source data. Under the setting with only one source model, we propose a novel flexible angle-based transfer learning (angleTL) method, which leverages the concordance between the source and the target model parameters. We show that angleTL unifies several benchmark methods by construction, including the target-only model trained using target data alone, the source model fitted on source data, and distance-based transfer learning method that incorporates the source parameter estimates and the target data under a distance-based similarity constraint. We also provide algorithms to effectively incorporate multiple source models accounting for the fact that some source models may be more helpful than others. Our high-dimensional asymptotic analysis provides interpretations and insights regarding when a source model can be helpful to the target model, and demonstrates the superiority of angleTL over other benchmark methods. We perform extensive simulation studies to validate our theoretical conclusions and show the feasibility of applying angleTL to transfer existing genetic risk prediction models across multiple biobanks.

Polynomials are common algebraic structures, which are often used to approximate functions including probability distributions. This paper proposes to directly define polynomial distributions in order to describe stochastic properties of systems rather than to assume polynomials for only approximating known or empirically estimated distributions. Polynomial distributions offer a great modeling flexibility, and often, also mathematical tractability. However, unlike canonical distributions, polynomial functions may have non-negative values in the interval of support for some parameter values, the number of their parameters is usually much larger than for canonical distributions, and the interval of support must be finite. In particular, polynomial distributions are defined here assuming three forms of polynomial function. The transformation of polynomial distributions and fitting a histogram to a polynomial distribution are considered. The key properties of polynomial distributions are derived in closed-form. A piecewise polynomial distribution construction is devised to ensure that it is non-negative over the support interval. Finally, the problems of estimating parameters of polynomial distributions and generating polynomially distributed samples are also studied.

This paper is concerned with a direct sampling method for imaging the support of a frequency-dependent source term embedded in a homogeneous and isotropic medium. The source term is given by the Fourier transform of a time-dependent source whose radiating period in the time domain is known. The time-dependent source is supposed to be stationary in the sense that its compact support does not vary along the time variable. Via a multi-frequency direct sampling method, we show that the smallest strip containing the source support and perpendicular to the observation direction can be recovered from far-field patterns at a fixed observation angle. With multiple but sparse observation directions, the shape of the convex hull of the source support can be recovered. The frequency-domain analysis performed here can be used to handle inverse time-dependent source problems. Our algorithm has low computational overhead and is robust against noise. Numerical experiments in both two and three dimensions have proved our theoretical findings.

Motion planning and control in autonomous car racing are one of the most challenging and safety-critical tasks due to high speed and dynamism. The lower-level control nodes are expected to be highly optimized due to resource constraints of onboard embedded processing units, although there are strict latency requirements. Some of these guarantees can be provided at the application level, such as using ROS2's Real-Time executors. However, the performance can be far from satisfactory as many modern control algorithms (such as Model Predictive Control) rely on solving complicated online optimization problems at each iteration. In this paper, we present a simple yet effective multi-threading technique to optimize the throughput of online-control algorithms for resource-constrained autonomous racing platforms. We achieve this by maintaining a systematic pool of worker threads solving the optimization problem in parallel which can improve the system performance by reducing latency between control input commands. We further demonstrate the effectiveness of our method using the Model Predictive Contouring Control (MPCC) algorithm running on Nvidia's Xavier AGX platform.

In recent years, Graph Neural Networks have reported outstanding performance in tasks like community detection, molecule classification and link prediction. However, the black-box nature of these models prevents their application in domains like health and finance, where understanding the models' decisions is essential. Counterfactual Explanations (CE) provide these understandings through examples. Moreover, the literature on CE is flourishing with novel explanation methods which are tailored to graph learning. In this survey, we analyse the existing Graph Counterfactual Explanation methods, by providing the reader with an organisation of the literature according to a uniform formal notation for definitions, datasets, and metrics, thus, simplifying potential comparisons w.r.t to the method advantages and disadvantages. We discussed seven methods and sixteen synthetic and real datasets providing details on the possible generation strategies. We highlight the most common evaluation strategies and formalise nine of the metrics used in the literature. We first introduce the evaluation framework GRETEL and how it is possible to extend and use it while providing a further dimension of comparison encompassing reproducibility aspects. Finally, we provide a discussion on how counterfactual explanation interplays with privacy and fairness, before delving into open challenges and future works.

This PhD thesis contains several contributions to the field of statistical causal modeling. Statistical causal models are statistical models embedded with causal assumptions that allow for the inference and reasoning about the behavior of stochastic systems affected by external manipulation (interventions). This thesis contributes to the research areas concerning the estimation of causal effects, causal structure learning, and distributionally robust (out-of-distribution generalizing) prediction methods. We present novel and consistent linear and non-linear causal effects estimators in instrumental variable settings that employ data-dependent mean squared prediction error regularization. Our proposed estimators show, in certain settings, mean squared error improvements compared to both canonical and state-of-the-art estimators. We show that recent research on distributionally robust prediction methods has connections to well-studied estimators from econometrics. This connection leads us to prove that general K-class estimators possess distributional robustness properties. We, furthermore, propose a general framework for distributional robustness with respect to intervention-induced distributions. In this framework, we derive sufficient conditions for the identifiability of distributionally robust prediction methods and present impossibility results that show the necessity of several of these conditions. We present a new structure learning method applicable in additive noise models with directed trees as causal graphs. We prove consistency in a vanishing identifiability setup and provide a method for testing substructure hypotheses with asymptotic family-wise error control that remains valid post-selection. Finally, we present heuristic ideas for learning summary graphs of nonlinear time-series models.

Recent years have seen important advances in the quality of state-of-the-art models, but this has come at the expense of models becoming less interpretable. This survey presents an overview of the current state of Explainable AI (XAI), considered within the domain of Natural Language Processing (NLP). We discuss the main categorization of explanations, as well as the various ways explanations can be arrived at and visualized. We detail the operations and explainability techniques currently available for generating explanations for NLP model predictions, to serve as a resource for model developers in the community. Finally, we point out the current gaps and encourage directions for future work in this important research area.

Most of the internet today is composed of digital media that includes videos and images. With pixels becoming the currency in which most transactions happen on the internet, it is becoming increasingly important to have a way of browsing through this ocean of information with relative ease. YouTube has 400 hours of video uploaded every minute and many million images are browsed on Instagram, Facebook, etc. Inspired by recent advances in the field of deep learning and success that it has gained on various problems like image captioning and, machine translation , word2vec , skip thoughts, etc, we present DeepSeek a natural language processing based deep learning model that allows users to enter a description of the kind of images that they want to search, and in response the system retrieves all the images that semantically and contextually relate to the query. Two approaches are described in the following sections.
