Many RGBT tracking researches primarily focus on modal fusion design, while overlooking the effective handling of target appearance changes. While some approaches have introduced historical frames or fuse and replace initial templates to incorporate temporal information, they have the risk of disrupting the original target appearance and accumulating errors over time. To alleviate these limitations, we propose a novel Transformer RGBT tracking approach, which mixes spatio-temporal multimodal tokens from the static multimodal templates and multimodal search regions in Transformer to handle target appearance changes, for robust RGBT tracking. We introduce independent dynamic template tokens to interact with the search region, embedding temporal information to address appearance changes, while also retaining the involvement of the initial static template tokens in the joint feature extraction process to ensure the preservation of the original reliable target appearance information that prevent deviations from the target appearance caused by traditional temporal updates. We also use attention mechanisms to enhance the target features of multimodal template tokens by incorporating supplementary modal cues, and make the multimodal search region tokens interact with multimodal dynamic template tokens via attention mechanisms, which facilitates the conveyance of multimodal-enhanced target change information. Our module is inserted into the transformer backbone network and inherits joint feature extraction, search-template matching, and cross-modal interaction. Extensive experiments on three RGBT benchmark datasets show that the proposed approach maintains competitive performance compared to other state-of-the-art tracking algorithms while running at 39.1 FPS.

In off-policy reinforcement learning, a behaviour policy performs exploratory interactions with the environment to obtain state-action-reward samples which are then used to learn a target policy that optimises the expected return. This leads to a problem of off-policy evaluation, where one needs to evaluate the target policy from samples collected by the often unrelated behaviour policy. Importance sampling is a traditional statistical technique that is often applied to off-policy evaluation. While importance sampling estimators are unbiased, their variance increases exponentially with the horizon of the decision process due to computing the importance weight as a product of action probability ratios, yielding estimates with low accuracy for domains involving long-term planning. This paper proposes state-based importance sampling, which drops the action probability ratios of sub-trajectories with ``negligible states'' -- roughly speaking, those for which the chosen actions have no impact on the return estimate -- from the computation of the importance weight. Theoretical results show this reduces the ordinary importance sampling variance from $O(\exp(H))$ to $O(\exp(X))$ where $X < H$ is the largest subtrajectory with non-negligible states. To identify negligible states, two search algorithms are proposed, one based on covariance testing and one based on state-action values. We formulate state-based variants of ordinary importance sampling, weighted importance sampling, per-decision importance sampling, incremental importance sampling, doubly robust off-policy evaluation, and stationary density ratio estimation. Experiments in four distinct domains show that state-based methods consistently yield reduced variance and improved accuracy compared to their traditional counterparts.

Datasets containing both categorical and continuous variables are frequently encountered in many areas, and with the rapid development of modern measurement technologies, the dimensions of these variables can be very high. Despite the recent progress made in modelling high-dimensional data for continuous variables, there is a scarcity of methods that can deal with a mixed set of variables. To fill this gap, this paper develops a novel approach for classifying high-dimensional observations with mixed variables. Our framework builds on a location model, in which the distributions of the continuous variables conditional on categorical ones are assumed Gaussian. We overcome the challenge of having to split data into exponentially many cells, or combinations of the categorical variables, by kernel smoothing, and provide new perspectives for its bandwidth choice to ensure an analogue of Bochner's Lemma, which is different to the usual bias-variance tradeoff. We show that the two sets of parameters in our model can be separately estimated and provide penalized likelihood for their estimation. Results on the estimation accuracy and the misclassification rates are established, and the competitive performance of the proposed classifier is illustrated by extensive simulation and real data studies.

Federated learning (FL) underpins advancements in privacy-preserving distributed computing by collaboratively training neural networks without exposing clients' raw data. Current FL paradigms primarily focus on uni-modal data, while exploiting the knowledge from distributed multimodal data remains largely unexplored. Existing multimodal FL (MFL) solutions are mainly designed for statistical or modality heterogeneity from the input side, however, have yet to solve the fundamental issue,"modality imbalance", in distributed conditions, which can lead to inadequate information exploitation and heterogeneous knowledge aggregation on different modalities.In this paper, we propose a novel Cross-Modal Infiltration Federated Learning (FedCMI) framework that effectively alleviates modality imbalance and knowledge heterogeneity via knowledge transfer from the global dominant modality. To avoid the loss of information in the weak modality due to merely imitating the behavior of dominant modality, we design the two-projector module to integrate the knowledge from dominant modality while still promoting the local feature exploitation of weak modality. In addition, we introduce a class-wise temperature adaptation scheme to achieve fair performance across different classes. Extensive experiments over popular datasets are conducted and give us a gratifying confirmation of the proposed framework for fully exploring the information of each modality in MFL.

Selecting proper clients to participate in the iterative federated learning (FL) rounds is critical to effectively harness a broad range of distributed datasets. Existing client selection methods simply consider the variability among FL clients with uni-modal data, however, have yet to consider clients with multi-modalities. We reveal that traditional client selection scheme in MFL may suffer from a severe modality-level bias, which impedes the collaborative exploitation of multi-modal data, leading to insufficient local data exploration and global aggregation. To tackle this challenge, we propose a Client-wise Modality Selection scheme for MFL (CMSFed) that can comprehensively utilize information from each modality via avoiding such client selection bias caused by modality imbalance. Specifically, in each MFL round, the local data from different modalities are selectively employed to participate in local training and aggregation to mitigate potential modality imbalance of the global model. To approximate the fully aggregated model update in a balanced way, we introduce a novel local training loss function to enhance the weak modality and align the divergent feature spaces caused by inconsistent modality adoption strategies for different clients simultaneously. Then, a modality-level gradient decoupling method is designed to derive respective submodular functions to maintain the gradient diversity during the selection progress and balance MFL according to local modality imbalance in each iteration. Our extensive experiments showcase the superiority of CMSFed over baselines and its effectiveness in multi-modal data exploitation.

Spatio-temporal forecasting is challenging attributing to the high nonlinearity in temporal dynamics as well as complex location-characterized patterns in spatial domains, especially in fields like weather forecasting. Graph convolutions are usually used for modeling the spatial dependency in meteorology to handle the irregular distribution of sensors' spatial location. In this work, a novel graph-based convolution for imitating the meteorological flows is proposed to capture the local spatial patterns. Based on the assumption of smoothness of location-characterized patterns, we propose conditional local convolution whose shared kernel on nodes' local space is approximated by feedforward networks, with local representations of coordinate obtained by horizon maps into cylindrical-tangent space as its input. The established united standard of local coordinate system preserves the orientation on geography. We further propose the distance and orientation scaling terms to reduce the impacts of irregular spatial distribution. The convolution is embedded in a Recurrent Neural Network architecture to model the temporal dynamics, leading to the Conditional Local Convolution Recurrent Network (CLCRN). Our model is evaluated on real-world weather benchmark datasets, achieving state-of-the-art performance with obvious improvements. We conduct further analysis on local pattern visualization, model's framework choice, advantages of horizon maps and etc.

We describe ACE0, a lightweight platform for evaluating the suitability and viability of AI methods for behaviour discovery in multiagent simulations. Specifically, ACE0 was designed to explore AI methods for multi-agent simulations used in operations research studies related to new technologies such as autonomous aircraft. Simulation environments used in production are often high-fidelity, complex, require significant domain knowledge and as a result have high R&D costs. Minimal and lightweight simulation environments can help researchers and engineers evaluate the viability of new AI technologies for behaviour discovery in a more agile and potentially cost effective manner. In this paper we describe the motivation for the development of ACE0.We provide a technical overview of the system architecture, describe a case study of behaviour discovery in the aerospace domain, and provide a qualitative evaluation of the system. The evaluation includes a brief description of collaborative research projects with academic partners, exploring different AI behaviour discovery methods.

Approaches based on deep neural networks have achieved striking performance when testing data and training data share similar distribution, but can significantly fail otherwise. Therefore, eliminating the impact of distribution shifts between training and testing data is crucial for building performance-promising deep models. Conventional methods assume either the known heterogeneity of training data (e.g. domain labels) or the approximately equal capacities of different domains. In this paper, we consider a more challenging case where neither of the above assumptions holds. We propose to address this problem by removing the dependencies between features via learning weights for training samples, which helps deep models get rid of spurious correlations and, in turn, concentrate more on the true connection between discriminative features and labels. Extensive experiments clearly demonstrate the effectiveness of our method on multiple distribution generalization benchmarks compared with state-of-the-art counterparts. Through extensive experiments on distribution generalization benchmarks including PACS, VLCS, MNIST-M, and NICO, we show the effectiveness of our method compared with state-of-the-art counterparts.

Ensembles over neural network weights trained from different random initialization, known as deep ensembles, achieve state-of-the-art accuracy and calibration. The recently introduced batch ensembles provide a drop-in replacement that is more parameter efficient. In this paper, we design ensembles not only over weights, but over hyperparameters to improve the state of the art in both settings. For best performance independent of budget, we propose hyper-deep ensembles, a simple procedure that involves a random search over different hyperparameters, themselves stratified across multiple random initializations. Its strong performance highlights the benefit of combining models with both weight and hyperparameter diversity. We further propose a parameter efficient version, hyper-batch ensembles, which builds on the layer structure of batch ensembles and self-tuning networks. The computational and memory costs of our method are notably lower than typical ensembles. On image classification tasks, with MLP, LeNet, and Wide ResNet 28-10 architectures, our methodology improves upon both deep and batch ensembles.

The recent proliferation of knowledge graphs (KGs) coupled with incomplete or partial information, in the form of missing relations (links) between entities, has fueled a lot of research on knowledge base completion (also known as relation prediction). Several recent works suggest that convolutional neural network (CNN) based models generate richer and more expressive feature embeddings and hence also perform well on relation prediction. However, we observe that these KG embeddings treat triples independently and thus fail to cover the complex and hidden information that is inherently implicit in the local neighborhood surrounding a triple. To this effect, our paper proposes a novel attention based feature embedding that captures both entity and relation features in any given entity's neighborhood. Additionally, we also encapsulate relation clusters and multihop relations in our model. Our empirical study offers insights into the efficacy of our attention based model and we show marked performance gains in comparison to state of the art methods on all datasets.
