In this paper, we study the coded caching scheme for the $(K,L,M_{\text{T}},M_{\text{U}},N)$ partially connected linear network, where there are $N$ files each of which has an equal size, $K+L-1$ transmitters and $K$ users; each user and transmitter caches at most $M_{\text{U}}$ and $M_{\text{T}}$ files respectively; each user cyclically communicates with $L$ transmitters. The goal is to design caching and delivery schemes to reduce the transmission latency measured by the metric normalized delivery time (NDT). By delicately designing the data placement of the transmitters and users according to the topology, we show that a combinatorial structure called multiple-antenna placement delivery array (MAPDA), which was originally proposed for the multiple-input single-output broadcast channels, can be also used to design schemes for the partially connected linear network. Then, based on existing MAPDAs and our constructing approach, we propose new schemes that achieve the optimal NDT when $ {M_\text{T}}+ {M_\text{U}}\geq N$ and smaller NDT than that of the existing schemes when (${M_\text{T}}+ {M_\text{U}}\leq N$, $\frac{M_\text{U}}{N}+\frac{M_\text{T}}{N} \frac{L}{K}\left\lceil \frac{K}{L} \right\rceil \geq 1$) or ($ {M_\text{U}}+ {M_\text{T}}< N, \frac{K}{L}\notin\mathbb{Z}^+$). Moreover, our schemes operate in one-shot linear delivery and significantly reduce the subpacketizations compared to the existing scheme, which implies that our schemes have a wider range of applications and lower complexity of implementation.

We introduce a framework for intrinsic latent diffusion models operating directly on the surfaces of 3D shapes, with the goal of synthesizing high-quality textures. Our approach is underpinned by two contributions: field latents, a latent representation encoding textures as discrete vector fields on the mesh vertices, and field latent diffusion models, which learn to denoise a diffusion process in the learned latent space on the surface. We consider a single-textured-mesh paradigm, where our models are trained to generate variations of a given texture on a mesh. We show the synthesized textures are of superior fidelity compared those from existing single-textured-mesh generative models. Our models can also be adapted for user-controlled editing tasks such as inpainting and label-guided generation. The efficacy of our approach is due in part to the equivariance of our proposed framework under isometries, allowing our models to seamlessly reproduce details across locally similar regions and opening the door to a notion of generative texture transfer.
We provide an algorithm that maintains, against an adaptive adversary, a $(1-\varepsilon)$-approximate maximum matching in $n$-node $m$-edge general (not necessarily bipartite) undirected graph undergoing edge deletions with high probability with (amortized) $O(\mathrm{poly}(\varepsilon^{-1}, \log n))$ time per update. We also obtain the same update time for maintaining a fractional approximate weighted matching (and hence an approximation to the value of the maximum weight matching) and an integral approximate weighted matching in dense graphs. Our unweighted result improves upon the prior state-of-the-art which includes a $\mathrm{poly}(\log{n}) \cdot 2^{O(1/\varepsilon^2)}$ update time [Assadi-Bernstein-Dudeja 2022] and an $O(\sqrt{m} \varepsilon^{-2})$ update time [Gupta-Peng 2013], and our weighted result improves upon the $O(\sqrt{m}\varepsilon^{-O(1/\varepsilon)}\log{n})$ update time due to [Gupta-Peng 2013]. To obtain our results, we generalize a recent optimization approach to dynamic algorithms from [Jambulapati-Jin-Sidford-Tian 2022]. We show that repeatedly solving entropy-regularized optimization problems yields a lazy updating scheme for fractional decremental problems with a near-optimal number of updates. To apply this framework we develop optimization methods compatible with it and new dynamic rounding algorithms for the matching polytope.
In this paper, we consider the problem of maintaining a $(1-\varepsilon)$-approximate maximum weight matching in a dynamic graph $G$, while the adversary makes changes to the edges of the graph. In the fully dynamic setting, where both edge insertions and deletions are allowed, Gupta and Peng gave an algorithm for this problem with an update time of $\tilde{O}_{\varepsilon}(\sqrt{m})$. We study a natural relaxation of this problem, namely the decremental model, where the adversary is only allowed to delete edges. For the cardinality version of this problem in general (possibly, non-bipartite) graphs, Assadi, Bernstein, and Dudeja gave a decremental algorithm with update time $O_{\varepsilon}(\text{poly}(\log n))$. However, beating $\tilde{O}_{\varepsilon}(\sqrt{m})$ update time remained an open problem for the \emph{weighted} version in \emph{general graphs}. In this paper, we bridge the gap between unweighted and weighted general graphs for the decremental setting. We give a $O_{\varepsilon}(\text{poly}(\log n))$ update time algorithm that maintains a $(1-\varepsilon)$-approximate maximum weight matching under adversarial deletions. Like the decremental algorithm of Assadi, Bernstein, and Dudeja, our algorithm is randomized, but works against an adaptive adversary. It also matches the time bound for the cardinality version upto dependencies on $\varepsilon$ and a $\log R$ factor, where $R$ is the ratio between the maximum and minimum edge weight in $G$.
We give a stochastic optimization algorithm that solves a dense $n\times n$ real-valued linear system $Ax=b$, returning $\tilde x$ such that $\|A\tilde x-b\|\leq \epsilon\|b\|$ in time: $$\tilde O((n^2+nk^{\omega-1})\log1/\epsilon),$$ where $k$ is the number of singular values of $A$ larger than $O(1)$ times its smallest positive singular value, $\omega < 2.372$ is the matrix multiplication exponent, and $\tilde O$ hides a poly-logarithmic in $n$ factor. When $k=O(n^{1-\theta})$ (namely, $A$ has a flat-tailed spectrum, e.g., due to noisy data or regularization), this improves on both the cost of solving the system directly, as well as on the cost of preconditioning an iterative method such as conjugate gradient. In particular, our algorithm has an $\tilde O(n^2)$ runtime when $k=O(n^{0.729})$. We further adapt this result to sparse positive semidefinite matrices and least squares regression. Our main algorithm can be viewed as a randomized block coordinate descent method, where the key challenge is simultaneously ensuring good convergence and fast per-iteration time. In our analysis, we use theory of majorization for elementary symmetric polynomials to establish a sharp convergence guarantee when coordinate blocks are sampled using a determinantal point process. We then use a Markov chain coupling argument to show that similar convergence can be attained with a cheaper sampling scheme, and accelerate the block coordinate descent update via matrix sketching.
A polynomial Turing compression (PTC) for a parameterized problem $L$ is a polynomial time Turing machine that has access to an oracle for a problem $L'$ such that a polynomial in the input parameter bounds each query. Meanwhile, a polynomial (many-one) compression (PC) can be regarded as a restricted variant of PTC where the machine can query the oracle exactly once and must output the same answer as the oracle. Bodlaender et al. (ICALP 2008) and Fortnow and Santhanam (STOC 2008) initiated an impressive hardness theory for PC under the assumption coNP $\not\subseteq$ NP/poly. Since PTC is a generalization of PC, we define $\mathcal{C}$ as the set of all problems that have PTCs but have no PCs under the assumption coNP $\not\subseteq$ NP/poly. Based on the hardness theory for PC, Fernau et al. (STACS 2009) found the first problem Leaf Out-tree($k$) in $\mathcal{C}$. However, very little is known about $\mathcal{C}$, as only a dozen problems were shown to belong to the complexity class in the last ten years. Several problems are open, for example, whether CNF-SAT($n$) and $k$-path are in $\mathcal{C}$, and novel ideas are required to better understand the fundamental differences between PTCs and PCs. In this paper, we enrich our knowledge about $\mathcal{C}$ by showing that several problems parameterized by modular-width ($mw$) belong to $\mathcal{C}$. More specifically, exploiting the properties of the well-studied structural graph parameter $mw$, we demonstrate 17 problems parameterized by $mw$ are in $\mathcal{C}$, such as Chromatic Number($mw$) and Hamiltonian Cycle($mw$). In addition, we develop a general recipe to prove the existence of PTCs for a large class of problems, including our 17 problems.
Unlike opaque object, novel view synthesis of transparent object is a challenging task, because transparent object refracts light of background causing visual distortions on the transparent object surface along the viewpoint change. Recently introduced Neural Radiance Fields (NeRF) is a view synthesis method. Thanks to its remarkable performance improvement, lots of following applications based on NeRF in various topics have been developed. However, if an object with a different refractive index is included in a scene such as transparent object, NeRF shows limited performance because refracted light ray at the surface of the transparent object is not appropriately considered. To resolve the problem, we propose a NeRF-based method consisting of the following three steps: First, we reconstruct a three-dimensional shape of a transparent object using visual hull. Second, we simulate the refraction of the rays inside of the transparent object according to Snell's law. Last, we sample points through refracted rays and put them into NeRF. Experimental evaluation results demonstrate that our method addresses the limitation of conventional NeRF with transparent objects.
Oblivious routing is a well-studied paradigm that uses static precomputed routing tables for selecting routing paths within a network. Existing oblivious routing schemes with polylogarithmic competitive ratio for general networks are tree-based, in the sense that routing is performed according to a convex combination of trees. However, this restriction to trees leads to a construction that has time quadratic in the size of the network and does not parallelize well. In this paper we study oblivious routing schemes based on electrical routing. In particular, we show that general networks with $n$ vertices and $m$ edges admit a routing scheme that has competitive ratio $O(\log^2 n)$ and consists of a convex combination of only $O(\sqrt{m})$ electrical routings. This immediately leads to an improved construction algorithm with time $\tilde{O}(m^{3/2})$ that can also be implemented in parallel with $\tilde{O}(\sqrt{m})$ depth.
Recent work by Dhulipala, Liu, Raskhodnikova, Shi, Shun, and Yu~\cite{DLRSSY22} initiated the study of the $k$-core decomposition problem under differential privacy. They show that approximate $k$-core numbers can be output while guaranteeing differential privacy, while only incurring a multiplicative error of $(2 +\eta)$ (for any constant $\eta >0$) and additive error of $\poly(\log(n))/\eps$. In this paper, we revisit this problem. Our main result is an $\eps$-edge differentially private algorithm for $k$-core decomposition which outputs the core numbers with no multiplicative error and $O(\text{log}(n)/\eps)$ additive error. This improves upon previous work by a factor of 2 in the multiplicative error, while giving near-optimal additive error. With a little additional work, this implies improved algorithms for densest subgraph and low out-degree ordering under differential privacy. For low out-degree ordering, we give an $\eps$-edge differentially private algorithm which outputs an implicit orientation such that the out-degree of each vertex is at most $d+O(\log{n}/{\eps})$, where $d$ is the degeneracy of the graph. This improves upon the best known guarantees for the problem by a factor of $4$ and gives near-optimal additive error. For densest subgraph, we give an $\eps$-edge differentially private algorithm outputting a subset of nodes that induces a subgraph of density at least ${D^*}/{2}-O(\text{log}(n)/\eps)$, where $D^*$ is the density for the optimal subgraph.
While existing work in robust deep learning has focused on small pixel-level $\ell_p$ norm-based perturbations, this may not account for perturbations encountered in several real world settings. In many such cases although test data might not be available, broad specifications about the types of perturbations (such as an unknown degree of rotation) may be known. We consider a setup where robustness is expected over an unseen test domain that is not i.i.d. but deviates from the training domain. While this deviation may not be exactly known, its broad characterization is specified a priori, in terms of attributes. We propose an adversarial training approach which learns to generate new samples so as to maximize exposure of the classifier to the attributes-space, without having access to the data from the test domain. Our adversarial training solves a min-max optimization problem, with the inner maximization generating adversarial perturbations, and the outer minimization finding model parameters by optimizing the loss on adversarial perturbations generated from the inner maximization. We demonstrate the applicability of our approach on three types of naturally occurring perturbations -- object-related shifts, geometric transformations, and common image corruptions. Our approach enables deep neural networks to be robust against a wide range of naturally occurring perturbations. We demonstrate the usefulness of the proposed approach by showing the robustness gains of deep neural networks trained using our adversarial training on MNIST, CIFAR-10, and a new variant of the CLEVR dataset.
Traditional methods for link prediction can be categorized into three main types: graph structure feature-based, latent feature-based, and explicit feature-based. Graph structure feature methods leverage some handcrafted node proximity scores, e.g., common neighbors, to estimate the likelihood of links. Latent feature methods rely on factorizing networks' matrix representations to learn an embedding for each node. Explicit feature methods train a machine learning model on two nodes' explicit attributes. Each of the three types of methods has its unique merits. In this paper, we propose SEAL (learning from Subgraphs, Embeddings, and Attributes for Link prediction), a new framework for link prediction which combines the power of all the three types into a single graph neural network (GNN). GNN is a new type of neural network which directly accepts graphs as input and outputs their labels. In SEAL, the input to the GNN is a local subgraph around each target link. We prove theoretically that our local subgraphs also reserve a great deal of high-order graph structure features related to link existence. Another key feature is that our GNN can naturally incorporate latent features and explicit features. It is achieved by concatenating node embeddings (latent features) and node attributes (explicit features) in the node information matrix for each subgraph, thus combining the three types of features to enhance GNN learning. Through extensive experiments, SEAL shows unprecedentedly strong performance against a wide range of baseline methods, including various link prediction heuristics and network embedding methods.
