Despite the great success of deep learning in stereo matching, recovering accurate and clearly-contoured disparity map is still challenging. Currently, L1 loss and cross-entropy loss are the two most widely used loss functions for training the stereo matching networks. Comparing with the former, the latter can usually achieve better results thanks to its direct constraint to the the cost volume. However, how to generate reasonable ground-truth distribution for this loss function remains largely under exploited. Existing works assume uni-modal distributions around the ground-truth for all of the pixels, which ignores the fact that the edge pixels may have multi-modal distributions. In this paper, we first experimentally exhibit the importance of correct edge supervision to the overall disparity accuracy. Then a novel adaptive multi-modal cross-entropy loss which encourages the network to generate different distribution patterns for edge and non-edge pixels is proposed. We further optimize the disparity estimator in the inference stage to alleviate the bleeding and misalignment artifacts at the edge. Our method is generic and can help classic stereo matching models regain competitive performance. GANet trained by our loss ranks 1st on the KITTI 2015 and 2012 benchmarks and outperforms state-of-the-art methods by a large margin. Meanwhile, our method also exhibits superior cross-domain generalization ability and outperforms existing generalization-specialized methods on four popular real-world datasets.

A novel numerical strategy is introduced for computing approximations of solutions to a Cahn-Hilliard model with degenerate mobilities. This model has recently been introduced as a second-order phase-field approximation for surface diffusion flows. Its numerical discretization is challenging due to the degeneracy of the mobilities, which generally requires an implicit treatment to avoid stability issues at the price of increased complexity costs. To mitigate this drawback, we consider new first- and second-order Scalar Auxiliary Variable (SAV) schemes that, differently from existing approaches, focus on the relaxation of the mobility, rather than the Cahn-Hilliard energy. These schemes are introduced and analysed theoretically in the general context of gradient flows and then specialised for the Cahn-Hilliard equation with mobilities. Various numerical experiments are conducted to highlight the advantages of these new schemes in terms of accuracy, effectiveness and computational cost.

We present a finite element scheme for fractional diffusion problems with varying diffusivity and fractional order. We consider a symmetric integral form of these nonlocal equations defined on general geometries and in arbitrary bounded domains. A number of challenges are encountered when discretizing these equations. The first comes from the heterogeneous kernel singularity in the fractional integral operator. The second comes from the dense discrete operator with its quadratic growth in memory footprint and arithmetic operations. An additional challenge comes from the need to handle volume conditions-the generalization of classical local boundary conditions to the nonlocal setting. Satisfying these conditions requires that the effect of the whole domain, including both the interior and exterior regions, can be computed on every interior point in the discretization. Performed directly, this would result in quadratic complexity. To address these challenges, we propose a strategy that decomposes the stiffness matrix into three components. The first is a sparse matrix that handles the singular near-field separately and is computed by adapting singular quadrature techniques available for the homogeneous case to the case of spatially variable order. The second component handles the remaining smooth part of the near-field as well as the far field and is approximated by a hierarchical $\mathcal{H}^{2}$ matrix that maintains linear complexity in storage and operations. The third component handles the effect of the global mesh at every node and is written as a weighted mass matrix whose density is computed by a fast-multipole type method. The resulting algorithm has therefore overall linear space and time complexity. Analysis of the consistency of the stiffness matrix is provided and numerical experiments are conducted to illustrate the convergence and performance of the proposed algorithm.

We propose a numerical method for the Vlasov-Poisson-Fokker-Planck model written as an hyperbolic system thanks to a spectral decomposition in the basis of Hermite functions with respect to the velocity variable and a structure preserving finite volume scheme for the space variable. On the one hand, we show that this scheme naturally preserves both stationary solutions and linearized free-energy estimate. On the other hand, we adapt previous arguments based on hypocoercivity methods to get quantitative estimates ensuring the exponential relaxation to equilibrium of the discrete solution for the linearized Vlasov-Poisson-Fokker-Planck system, uniformly with respect to both scaling and discretization parameters. Finally, we perform substantial numerical simulations for the nonlinear system to illustrate the efficiency of this approach for a large variety of collisional regimes (plasma echos for weakly collisional regimes and trend to equilibrium for collisional plasmas) and to highlight its robustness (unconditional stability, asymptotic preserving properties).

Many real-world decision-making tasks require learning causal relationships between a set of variables. Traditional causal discovery methods, however, require that all variables are observed, which is often not feasible in practical scenarios. Without additional assumptions about the unobserved variables, it is not possible to recover any causal relationships from observational data. Fortunately, in many applied settings, additional structure among the confounders can be expected. In particular, pervasive confounding is commonly encountered and has been utilized for consistent causal estimation in linear causal models. In this paper, we present a provably consistent method to estimate causal relationships in the non-linear, pervasive confounding setting. The core of our procedure relies on the ability to estimate the confounding variation through a simple spectral decomposition of the observed data matrix. We derive a DAG score function based on this insight, prove its consistency in recovering a correct ordering of the DAG, and empirically compare it to previous approaches. We demonstrate improved performance on both simulated and real datasets by explicitly accounting for both confounders and non-linear effects.

This paper introduces general methodologies for constructing closed-form solutions to several important partial differential equations (PDEs) with polynomial right-hand sides in two and three spatial dimensions. The covered equations include the isotropic and anisotropic Poisson, Helmholtz, Stokes, and elastostatic equations, as well as the time-harmonic linear elastodynamic and Maxwell equations. Polynomial solutions have recently regained significance in the development of numerical techniques for evaluating volume integral operators and have potential applications in certain kinds of Trefftz finite element methods. Our approach to all of these PDEs relates the particular solution to polynomial solutions of the Poisson and Helmholtz polynomial particular solutions, solutions that can in turn be obtained, respectively, from expansions using homogeneous polynomials and the Neumann series expansion of the operator $(k^2+\Delta)^{-1}$. No matrix inversion is required to compute the solution. The method naturally incorporates divergence constraints on the solution, such as in the case of Maxwell and Stokes flow equations. This work is accompanied by a freely available Julia library, \texttt{PolynomialSolutions.jl}, which implements the proposed methodology in a non-symbolic format and efficiently constructs and provides access to rapid evaluation of the desired solution.

Automatic code optimization is a complex process that typically involves the application of multiple discrete algorithms that modify the program structure irreversibly. However, the design of these algorithms is often monolithic, and they require repetitive implementation to perform similar analyses due to the lack of cooperation. To address this issue, modern optimization techniques, such as equality saturation, allow for exhaustive term rewriting at various levels of inputs, thereby simplifying compiler design. In this paper, we propose equality saturation to optimize sequential codes utilized in directive-based programming for GPUs. Our approach simultaneously realizes less computation, less memory access, and high memory throughput. Our fully-automated framework constructs single-assignment forms from inputs to be entirely rewritten while keeping dependencies and extracts optimal cases. Through practical benchmarks, we demonstrate a significant performance improvement on several compilers. Furthermore, we highlight the advantages of computational reordering and emphasize the significance of memory-access order for modern GPUs.

We consider nonlinear delay differential and renewal equations with infinite delay. We extend the work of Gyllenberg et al, Appl. Math. Comput. (2018) by introducing a unifying abstract framework and derive a finite-dimensional approximating system via pseudospectral discretization. For renewal equations, via integration we consider a reformulation in a space of absolutely continuous functions that ensures that point evaluation is well defined. We prove the one-to-one correspondence of equilibria between the original equation and its approximation, and that linearization and discretization commute. Our most important result is the proof of convergence of the characteristic roots of the pseudospectral approximation of the linear(ized) equations, which ensures that the finite-dimensional system correctly reproduces the stability properties of the original linear equation if the dimension of the approximation is large enough. This result is illustrated with several numerical tests, which also demonstrate the effectiveness of the approach for the bifurcation analysis of equilibria of nonlinear equations.

The equilibrium configuration of a plasma in an axially symmetric reactor is described mathematically by a free boundary problem associated with the celebrated Grad--Shafranov equation. The presence of uncertainty in the model parameters introduces the need to quantify the variability in the predictions. This is often done by computing a large number of model solutions on a computational grid for an ensemble of parameter values and then obtaining estimates for the statistical properties of solutions. In this study, we explore the savings that can be obtained using multilevel Monte Carlo methods, which reduce costs by performing the bulk of the computations on a sequence of spatial grids that are coarser than the one that would typically be used for a simple Monte Carlo simulation. We examine this approach using both a set of uniformly refined grids and a set of adaptively refined grids guided by a discrete error estimator. Numerical experiments show that multilevel methods dramatically reduce the cost of simulation, with cost reductions typically on the order of 60 or more and possibly as large as 200. Adaptive gridding results in more accurate computation of geometric quantities such as x-points associated with the model.

The common standard for quality evaluation of automatic speech recognition (ASR) systems is reference-based metrics such as the Word Error Rate (WER), computed using manual ground-truth transcriptions that are time-consuming and expensive to obtain. This work proposes a multi-language referenceless quality metric, which allows comparing the performance of different ASR models on a speech dataset without ground truth transcriptions. To estimate the quality of ASR hypotheses, a pre-trained language model (LM) is fine-tuned with contrastive learning in a self-supervised learning manner. In experiments conducted on several unseen test datasets consisting of outputs from top commercial ASR engines in various languages, the proposed referenceless metric obtains a much higher correlation with WER scores and their ranks than the perplexity metric from the state-of-art multi-lingual LM in all experiments, and also reduces WER by more than $7\%$ when used for ensembling hypotheses. The fine-tuned model and experiments are made available for the reproducibility: //github.com/aixplain/NoRefER
