Learned representations of scientific documents can serve as valuable input features for downstream tasks without further fine-tuning. However, existing benchmarks for evaluating these representations fail to capture the diversity of relevant tasks. In response, we introduce SciRepEval, the first comprehensive benchmark for training and evaluating scientific document representations. It includes 24 challenging and realistic tasks, 8 of which are new, across four formats: classification, regression, ranking and search. We then use this benchmark to study and improve the generalization ability of scientific document representation models. We show how state-of-the-art models like SPECTER and SciNCL struggle to generalize across the task formats, and that simple multi-task training fails to improve them. However, a new approach that learns multiple embeddings per document, each tailored to a different format, can improve performance. We experiment with task-format-specific control codes and adapters and find they outperform the existing single-embedding state-of-the-art by over 2 points absolute. We release the resulting family of multi-format models, called SPECTER2, for the community to use and build on.

In contrastive self-supervised learning, positive samples are typically drawn from the same image but in different augmented views, resulting in a relatively limited source of positive samples. An effective way to alleviate this problem is to incorporate the relationship between samples, which involves including the top-K nearest neighbors of positive samples. However, the problem of false neighbors (i.e., neighbors that do not belong to the same category as the positive sample) is an objective but often overlooked challenge due to the query of neighbor samples without supervision information. In this paper, we present a simple self-supervised learning framework called Mixed Nearest-Neighbors for Self-Supervised Learning (MNN). MNN optimizes the influence of neighbor samples on the semantics of positive samples through an intuitive weighting approach and image mixture operations. The results demonstrate that MNN exhibits exceptional generalization performance and training efficiency on four benchmark datasets.

The recent development of deep learning methods applied to vision has enabled their increasing integration into real-world applications to perform complex Computer Vision (CV) tasks. However, image acquisition conditions have a major impact on the performance of high-level image processing. A possible solution to overcome these limitations is to artificially augment the training databases or to design deep learning models that are robust to signal distortions. We opt here for the first solution by enriching the database with complex and realistic distortions which were ignored until now in the existing databases. To this end, we built a new versatile database derived from the well-known MS-COCO database to which we applied local and global photo-realistic distortions. These new local distortions are generated by considering the scene context of the images that guarantees a high level of photo-realism. Distortions are generated by exploiting the depth information of the objects in the scene as well as their semantics. This guarantees a high level of photo-realism and allows to explore real scenarios ignored in conventional databases dedicated to various CV applications. Our versatile database offers an efficient solution to improve the robustness of various CV tasks such as Object Detection (OD), scene segmentation, and distortion-type classification methods. The image database, scene classification index, and distortion generation codes are publicly available \footnote{\url{//github.com/Aymanbegh/CD-COCO}}

Nonresponse after probability sampling is a universal challenge in survey sampling, often necessitating adjustments to mitigate sampling and selection bias simultaneously. This study explored the removal of bias and effective utilization of available information, not just in nonresponse but also in the scenario of data integration, where summary statistics from other data sources are accessible. We reformulate these settings within a two-step monotone missing data framework, where the first step of missingness arises from sampling and the second originates from nonresponse. Subsequently, we derive the semiparametric efficiency bound for the target parameter. We also propose adaptive estimators utilizing methods of moments and empirical likelihood approaches to attain the lower bound. The proposed estimator exhibits both efficiency and double robustness. However, attaining efficiency with an adaptive estimator requires the correct specification of certain working models. To reinforce robustness against the misspecification of working models, we extend the property of double robustness to multiple robustness by proposing a two-step empirical likelihood method that effectively leverages empirical weights. A numerical study is undertaken to investigate the finite-sample performance of the proposed methods. We further applied our methods to a dataset from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey data by efficiently incorporating summary statistics from the National Health Interview Survey data.

Deep learning-based models are at the forefront of most driver observation benchmarks due to their remarkable accuracies but are also associated with high computational costs. This is challenging, as resources are often limited in real-world driving scenarios. This paper introduces a lightweight framework for resource-efficient driver activity recognition. The framework enhances 3D MobileNet, a neural architecture optimized for speed in video classification, by incorporating knowledge distillation and model quantization to balance model accuracy and computational efficiency. Knowledge distillation helps maintain accuracy while reducing the model size by leveraging soft labels from a larger teacher model (I3D), instead of relying solely on original ground truth data. Model quantization significantly lowers memory and computation demands by using lower precision integers for model weights and activations. Extensive testing on a public dataset for in-vehicle monitoring during autonomous driving demonstrates that this new framework achieves a threefold reduction in model size and a 1.4-fold improvement in inference time, compared to an already optimized architecture.

Recent research indicates that frequent model communication stands as a major bottleneck to the efficiency of decentralized machine learning (ML), particularly for large-scale and over-parameterized neural networks (NNs). In this paper, we introduce MALCOM-PSGD, a new decentralized ML algorithm that strategically integrates gradient compression techniques with model sparsification. MALCOM-PSGD leverages proximal stochastic gradient descent to handle the non-smoothness resulting from the $\ell_1$ regularization in model sparsification. Furthermore, we adapt vector source coding and dithering-based quantization for compressed gradient communication of sparsified models. Our analysis shows that decentralized proximal stochastic gradient descent with compressed communication has a convergence rate of $\mathcal{O}\left(\ln(t)/\sqrt{t}\right)$ assuming a diminishing learning rate and where $t$ denotes the number of iterations. Numerical results verify our theoretical findings and demonstrate that our method reduces communication costs by approximately $75\%$ when compared to the state-of-the-art method.

Creating high-quality view synthesis is essential for immersive applications but continues to be problematic, particularly in indoor environments and for real-time deployment. Current techniques frequently require extensive computational time for both training and rendering, and often produce less-than-ideal 3D representations due to inadequate geometric structuring. To overcome this, we introduce VoxNeRF, a novel approach that leverages volumetric representations to enhance the quality and efficiency of indoor view synthesis. Firstly, VoxNeRF constructs a structured scene geometry and converts it into a voxel-based representation. We employ multi-resolution hash grids to adaptively capture spatial features, effectively managing occlusions and the intricate geometry of indoor scenes. Secondly, we propose a unique voxel-guided efficient sampling technique. This innovation selectively focuses computational resources on the most relevant portions of ray segments, substantially reducing optimization time. We validate our approach against three public indoor datasets and demonstrate that VoxNeRF outperforms state-of-the-art methods. Remarkably, it achieves these gains while reducing both training and rendering times, surpassing even Instant-NGP in speed and bringing the technology closer to real-time.

Conventionally, spatiotemporal modeling network and its complexity are the two most concentrated research topics in video action recognition. Existing state-of-the-art methods have achieved excellent accuracy regardless of the complexity meanwhile efficient spatiotemporal modeling solutions are slightly inferior in performance. In this paper, we attempt to acquire both efficiency and effectiveness simultaneously. First of all, besides traditionally treating H x W x T video frames as space-time signal (viewing from the Height-Width spatial plane), we propose to also model video from the other two Height-Time and Width-Time planes, to capture the dynamics of video thoroughly. Secondly, our model is designed based on 2D CNN backbones and model complexity is well kept in mind by design. Specifically, we introduce a novel multi-view fusion (MVF) module to exploit video dynamics using separable convolution for efficiency. It is a plug-and-play module and can be inserted into off-the-shelf 2D CNNs to form a simple yet effective model called MVFNet. Moreover, MVFNet can be thought of as a generalized video modeling framework and it can specialize to be existing methods such as C2D, SlowOnly, and TSM under different settings. Extensive experiments are conducted on popular benchmarks (i.e., Something-Something V1 & V2, Kinetics, UCF-101, and HMDB-51) to show its superiority. The proposed MVFNet can achieve state-of-the-art performance with 2D CNN's complexity.

Graph-based semi-supervised learning (SSL) is an important learning problem where the goal is to assign labels to initially unlabeled nodes in a graph. Graph Convolutional Networks (GCNs) have recently been shown to be effective for graph-based SSL problems. GCNs inherently assume existence of pairwise relationships in the graph-structured data. However, in many real-world problems, relationships go beyond pairwise connections and hence are more complex. Hypergraphs provide a natural modeling tool to capture such complex relationships. In this work, we explore the use of GCNs for hypergraph-based SSL. In particular, we propose HyperGCN, an SSL method which uses a layer-wise propagation rule for convolutional neural networks operating directly on hypergraphs. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first principled adaptation of GCNs to hypergraphs. HyperGCN is able to encode both the hypergraph structure and hypernode features in an effective manner. Through detailed experimentation, we demonstrate HyperGCN's effectiveness at hypergraph-based SSL.

The cross-domain recommendation technique is an effective way of alleviating the data sparsity in recommender systems by leveraging the knowledge from relevant domains. Transfer learning is a class of algorithms underlying these techniques. In this paper, we propose a novel transfer learning approach for cross-domain recommendation by using neural networks as the base model. We assume that hidden layers in two base networks are connected by cross mappings, leading to the collaborative cross networks (CoNet). CoNet enables dual knowledge transfer across domains by introducing cross connections from one base network to another and vice versa. CoNet is achieved in multi-layer feedforward networks by adding dual connections and joint loss functions, which can be trained efficiently by back-propagation. The proposed model is evaluated on two real-world datasets and it outperforms baseline models by relative improvements of 3.56\% in MRR and 8.94\% in NDCG, respectively.
