Complex spatial dependencies in transportation networks make traffic prediction extremely challenging. Much existing work is devoted to learning dynamic graph structures among sensors, and the strategy of mining spatial dependencies from traffic data, known as data-driven, tends to be an intuitive and effective approach. However, Time-Shift of traffic patterns and noise induced by random factors hinder data-driven spatial dependence modeling. In this paper, we propose a novel dynamic frequency domain graph convolution network (DFDGCN) to capture spatial dependencies. Specifically, we mitigate the effects of time-shift by Fourier transform, and introduce the identity embedding of sensors and time embedding when capturing data for graph learning since traffic data with noise is not entirely reliable. The graph is combined with static predefined and self-adaptive graphs during graph convolution to predict future traffic data through classical causal convolutions. Extensive experiments on four real-world datasets demonstrate that our model is effective and outperforms the baselines.

Model Predictive Trajectory Optimization With Dynamically Changing Waypoints for Serial Manipulators
Systematically including dynamically changing waypoints as desired discrete actions, for instance, resulting from superordinate task planning, has been challenging for online model predictive trajectory optimization with short planning horizons. This paper presents a novel waypoint model predictive control (wMPC) concept for online replanning tasks. The main idea is to split the planning horizon at the waypoint when it becomes reachable within the current planning horizon and reduce the horizon length towards the waypoints and goal points. This approach keeps the computational load low and provides flexibility in adapting to changing conditions in real time. The presented approach achieves competitive path lengths and trajectory durations compared to (global) offline RRT-type planners in a multi-waypoint scenario. Moreover, the ability of wMPC to dynamically replan tasks online is experimentally demonstrated on a KUKA LBR iiwa 14 R820 robot in a dynamic pick-and-place scenario.
Recommender systems have made significant strides in various industries, primarily driven by extensive efforts to enhance recommendation accuracy. However, this pursuit of accuracy has inadvertently given rise to echo chamber/filter bubble effects. Especially in industry, it could impair user's experiences and prevent user from accessing a wider range of items. One of the solutions is to take diversity into account. However, most of existing works focus on user's explicit preferences, while rarely exploring user's non-interaction preferences. These neglected non-interaction preferences are especially important for broadening user's interests in alleviating echo chamber/filter bubble effects.Therefore, in this paper, we first define diversity as two distinct definitions, i.e., user-explicit diversity (U-diversity) and user-item non-interaction diversity (N-diversity) based on user historical behaviors. Then, we propose a succinct and effective method, named as Controllable Category Diversity Framework (CCDF) to achieve both high U-diversity and N-diversity simultaneously.Specifically, CCDF consists of two stages, User-Category Matching and Constrained Item Matching. The User-Category Matching utilizes the DeepU2C model and a combined loss to capture user's preferences in categories, and then selects the top-$K$ categories with a controllable parameter $K$.These top-$K$ categories will be used as trigger information in Constrained Item Matching. Offline experimental results show that our proposed DeepU2C outperforms state-of-the-art diversity-oriented methods, especially on N-diversity task. The whole framework is validated in a real-world production environment by conducting online A/B testing.
Orthogonal recurrent neural networks (ORNNs) are an appealing option for learning tasks involving time series with long-term dependencies, thanks to their simplicity and computational stability. However, these networks often require a substantial number of parameters to perform well, which can be prohibitive in power-constrained environments, such as compact devices. One approach to address this issue is neural network quantization. The construction of such networks remains an open problem, acknowledged for its inherent instability.In this paper, we explore the quantization of the recurrent and input weight matrices in ORNNs, leading to Quantized approximately Orthogonal RNNs (QORNNs). We investigate one post-training quantization (PTQ) strategy and three quantization-aware training (QAT) algorithms that incorporate orthogonal constraints and quantized weights. Empirical results demonstrate the advantages of employing QAT over PTQ. The most efficient model achieves results similar to state-of-the-art full-precision ORNN and LSTM on a variety of standard benchmarks, even with 3-bits quantization.
To effectively express and satisfy network application requirements, intent-based network management has emerged as a promising solution. In intent-based methods, users and applications express their intent in a high-level abstract language to the network. Although this abstraction simplifies network operation, it induces many challenges to efficiently express applications' intents and map them to different network capabilities. Therefore, in this work, we propose an AI-based framework for intent profiling and translation. We consider a scenario where applications interacting with the network express their needs for network services in their domain language. The machine-to-machine communication (i.e., between applications and the network) is complex since it requires networks to learn how to understand the domain languages of each application, which is neither practical nor scalable. Instead, a framework based on emergent communication is proposed for intent profiling, in which applications express their abstract quality-of-experience (QoE) intents to the network through emergent communication messages. Subsequently, the network learns how to interpret these communication messages and map them to network capabilities (i.e., slices) to guarantee the requested Quality-of-Service (QoS). Simulation results show that the proposed method outperforms self-learning slicing and other baselines, and achieves a performance close to the perfect knowledge baseline.
This work establishes new convergence guarantees for gradient descent in smooth convex optimization via a computer-assisted analysis technique. Our theory allows nonconstant stepsize policies with frequent long steps potentially violating descent by analyzing the overall effect of many iterations at once rather than the typical one-iteration inductions used in most first-order method analyses. We show that long steps, which may increase the objective value in the short term, lead to provably faster convergence in the long term. A conjecture towards proving a faster $O(1/T\log T)$ rate for gradient descent is also motivated along with simple numerical validation.
We make the case for neural network objects and extend an already existing neural network calculus explained in detail in Chapter 2 on \cite{bigbook}. Our aim will be to show that, yes, indeed, it makes sense to talk about neural network polynomials, neural network exponentials, sine, and cosines in the sense that they do indeed approximate their real number counterparts subject to limitations on certain of their parameters, $q$, and $\varepsilon$. While doing this, we show that the parameter and depth growth are only polynomial on their desired accuracy (defined as a 1-norm difference over $\mathbb{R}$), thereby showing that this approach to approximating, where a neural network in some sense has the structural properties of the function it is approximating is not entire intractable.
This manuscript portrays optimization as a process. In many practical applications the environment is so complex that it is infeasible to lay out a comprehensive theoretical model and use classical algorithmic theory and mathematical optimization. It is necessary as well as beneficial to take a robust approach, by applying an optimization method that learns as one goes along, learning from experience as more aspects of the problem are observed. This view of optimization as a process has become prominent in varied fields and has led to some spectacular success in modeling and systems that are now part of our daily lives.
Graph neural networks (GNNs) is widely used to learn a powerful representation of graph-structured data. Recent work demonstrates that transferring knowledge from self-supervised tasks to downstream tasks could further improve graph representation. However, there is an inherent gap between self-supervised tasks and downstream tasks in terms of optimization objective and training data. Conventional pre-training methods may be not effective enough on knowledge transfer since they do not make any adaptation for downstream tasks. To solve such problems, we propose a new transfer learning paradigm on GNNs which could effectively leverage self-supervised tasks as auxiliary tasks to help the target task. Our methods would adaptively select and combine different auxiliary tasks with the target task in the fine-tuning stage. We design an adaptive auxiliary loss weighting model to learn the weights of auxiliary tasks by quantifying the consistency between auxiliary tasks and the target task. In addition, we learn the weighting model through meta-learning. Our methods can be applied to various transfer learning approaches, it performs well not only in multi-task learning but also in pre-training and fine-tuning. Comprehensive experiments on multiple downstream tasks demonstrate that the proposed methods can effectively combine auxiliary tasks with the target task and significantly improve the performance compared to state-of-the-art methods.
There has been appreciable progress in unsupervised network representation learning (UNRL) approaches over graphs recently with flexible random-walk approaches, new optimization objectives and deep architectures. However, there is no common ground for systematic comparison of embeddings to understand their behavior for different graphs and tasks. In this paper we theoretically group different approaches under a unifying framework and empirically investigate the effectiveness of different network representation methods. In particular, we argue that most of the UNRL approaches either explicitly or implicit model and exploit context information of a node. Consequently, we propose a framework that casts a variety of approaches -- random walk based, matrix factorization and deep learning based -- into a unified context-based optimization function. We systematically group the methods based on their similarities and differences. We study the differences among these methods in detail which we later use to explain their performance differences (on downstream tasks). We conduct a large-scale empirical study considering 9 popular and recent UNRL techniques and 11 real-world datasets with varying structural properties and two common tasks -- node classification and link prediction. We find that there is no single method that is a clear winner and that the choice of a suitable method is dictated by certain properties of the embedding methods, task and structural properties of the underlying graph. In addition we also report the common pitfalls in evaluation of UNRL methods and come up with suggestions for experimental design and interpretation of results.
Link prediction for knowledge graphs is the task of predicting missing relationships between entities. Previous work on link prediction has focused on shallow, fast models which can scale to large knowledge graphs. However, these models learn less expressive features than deep, multi-layer models -- which potentially limits performance. In this work, we introduce ConvE, a multi-layer convolutional network model for link prediction, and report state-of-the-art results for several established datasets. We also show that the model is highly parameter efficient, yielding the same performance as DistMult and R-GCN with 8x and 17x fewer parameters. Analysis of our model suggests that it is particularly effective at modelling nodes with high indegree -- which are common in highly-connected, complex knowledge graphs such as Freebase and YAGO3. In addition, it has been noted that the WN18 and FB15k datasets suffer from test set leakage, due to inverse relations from the training set being present in the test set -- however, the extent of this issue has so far not been quantified. We find this problem to be severe: a simple rule-based model can achieve state-of-the-art results on both WN18 and FB15k. To ensure that models are evaluated on datasets where simply exploiting inverse relations cannot yield competitive results, we investigate and validate several commonly used datasets -- deriving robust variants where necessary. We then perform experiments on these robust datasets for our own and several previously proposed models, and find that ConvE achieves state-of-the-art Mean Reciprocal Rank across all datasets.
