This paper addresses the challenges of real-time, large-scale, and near-optimal multi-agent pathfinding (MAPF) through enhancements to the recently proposed LaCAM* algorithm. LaCAM* is a scalable search-based algorithm that guarantees the eventual finding of optimal solutions for cumulative transition costs. While it has demonstrated remarkable planning success rates, surpassing various state-of-the-art MAPF methods, its initial solution quality is far from optimal, and its convergence speed to the optimum is slow. To overcome these limitations, this paper introduces several improvement techniques, partly drawing inspiration from other MAPF methods. We provide empirical evidence that the fusion of these techniques significantly improves the solution quality of LaCAM*, thus further pushing the boundaries of MAPF algorithms.

Low-light situations severely restrict the pursuit of aesthetic quality in consumer photography. Although many efforts are devoted to designing heuristics, it is generally mired in a shallow spiral of tedium, such as piling up complex network architectures and empirical strategies. How to delve into the essential physical principles of illumination compensation has been neglected. Following the way of simplifying the complexity, this paper innovatively proposes a simple and efficient Noise-Aware Illumination Interpolator (NAI$_2$). According to the constraint principle of illuminance and reflectance within a limited dynamic range, as a prior knowledge in the recovery process, we construct a learnable illuminance interpolator and thereby compensating for non-uniform lighting. With the intention of adapting denoising without annotated data, we design a self-calibrated denoiser with the intrinsic image properties to acquire noiseless low-light images. Starting from the properties of natural image manifolds, a self-regularized recovery loss is introduced as a way to encourage more natural and realistic reflectance map. The model architecture and training losses, guided by prior knowledge, complement and benefit each other, forming a powerful unsupervised leaning framework. Comprehensive experiments demonstrate that the proposed algorithm produces competitive qualitative and quantitative results while maintaining favorable generalization capability in unknown real-world scenarios. The code will be available online upon publication of the paper.

We discovered that certain patterns called injective patterns remain stable during the revolution process, allowing us to create many reversible CA simply by using them to design the revolution rules. By examining injective patterns, we investigated their structural stability during revolutions. This led us to discover extended patterns and pattern mixtures that can create more reversible cellular automata. Furthermore, our research proposed a new way to study the reversibility of CA by observing the structure of local rule $f$. In this paper, we will explicate our study and propose an efficient method for finding the injective patterns. Our algorithms can find injective rules and generate local rule $f$ by traversing $2^{N}$, instead of $2^{2^{N}}$ to check all injective rules and pick the injective ones.

In real-time video communication, retransmitting lost packets over high-latency networks is not viable due to strict latency requirements. To counter packet losses without retransmission, two primary strategies are employed -- encoder-based forward error correction (FEC) and decoder-based error concealment. The former encodes data with redundancy before transmission, yet determining the optimal redundancy level in advance proves challenging. The latter reconstructs video from partially received frames, but dividing a frame into independently coded partitions inherently compromises compression efficiency, and the lost information cannot be effectively recovered by the decoder without adapting the encoder. We present a loss-resilient real-time video system called GRACE++, which preserves the user's quality of experience (QoE) across a wide range of packet losses through a new neural video codec. Central to GRACE++'s enhanced loss resilience is its joint training of the neural encoder and decoder under a spectrum of simulated packet losses. In lossless scenarios, GRACE++ achieves video quality on par with conventional codecs (e.g., H.265). As the loss rate escalates, GRACE++ exhibits a more graceful, less pronounced decline in quality, consistently outperforming other loss-resilient schemes. Through extensive evaluation on various videos and real network traces, we demonstrate that GRACE++ reduces undecodable frames by 95% and stall duration by 90% compared with FEC, while markedly boosting video quality over error concealment methods. In a user study with 240 crowdsourced participants and 960 subjective ratings, GRACE++ registers a 38% higher mean opinion score (MOS) than other baselines.

We present LQR-CBF-RRT*, an incremental sampling-based algorithm for offline motion planning. Our framework leverages the strength of Control Barrier Functions (CBFs) and Linear Quadratic Regulators (LQR) to generate safety-critical and optimal trajectories for a robot with dynamics described by an affine control system. CBFs are used for safety guarantees, while LQRs are employed for optimal control synthesis during edge extensions. Popular CBF-based formulations for safety critical control require solving Quadratic Programs (QPs), which can be computationally expensive. Moreover, LQR-based controllers require repetitive applications of first-order Taylor approximations for nonlinear systems, which can also create an additional computational burden. To improve the motion planning efficiency, we verify the satisfaction of the CBF constraints directly in edge extension to avoid the burden of solving the QPs. We store computed optimal LQR gain matrices in a hash table to avoid re-computation during the local linearization of the rewiring procedure. Lastly, we utilize the Cross-Entropy Method for importance sampling to improve sampling efficiency. Our results show that the proposed planner surpasses its counterparts in computational efficiency and performs well in an experimental setup.

Secure outsourced computation is critical for cloud computing to safeguard data confidentiality and ensure data usability. Recently, secure outsourced computation schemes following a twin-server architecture based on partially homomorphic cryptosystems have received increasing attention. The Secure Outsourced Computation on Integers (SOCI) [1] toolkit is the state-of-the-art among these schemes which can perform secure computation on integers without requiring the costly bootstrapping operation as in fully homomorphic encryption; however, SOCI suffers from relatively large computation and communication overhead. In this paper, we propose SOCI+ which significantly improves the performance of SOCI. Specifically, SOCI+ employs a novel (2, 2)-threshold Paillier cryptosystem with fast encryption and decryption as its cryptographic primitive, and supports a suite of efficient secure arithmetic computation on integers protocols, including a secure multiplication protocol (SMUL), a secure comparison protocol (SCMP), a secure sign bit-acquisition protocol (SSBA), and a secure division protocol (SDIV), all based on the (2, 2)-threshold Paillier cryptosystem with fast encryption and decryption. In addition, SOCI+ incorporates an offline and online computation mechanism to further optimize its performance. We perform rigorous theoretical analysis to prove the correctness and security of SOCI+. Compared with SOCI, our experimental evaluation shows that SOCI+ is up to 5.4 times more efficient in computation and 40% less in communication overhead.

Maintaining a $k$-core decomposition quickly in a dynamic graph has important applications in network analysis. The main challenge for designing efficient exact algorithms is that a single update to the graph can cause significant global changes. Our paper focuses on \emph{approximation} algorithms with small approximation factors that are much more efficient than what exact algorithms can obtain. We present the first parallel, batch-dynamic algorithm for approximate $k$-core decomposition that is efficient in both theory and practice. Our algorithm is based on our novel parallel level data structure, inspired by the sequential level data structures of Bhattacharya et al [STOC '15] and Henzinger et al [2020]. Given a graph with $n$ vertices and a batch of updates $\mathcal{B}$, our algorithm provably maintains a $(2 + \varepsilon)$-approximation of the coreness values of all vertices (for any constant $\varepsilon > 0$) in $O(|\mathcal{B}|\log^2 n)$ amortized work and $O(\log^2 n \log\log n)$ depth (parallel time) with high probability. As a by-product, our $k$-core decomposition algorithm also gives a batch-dynamic algorithm for maintaining an $O(\alpha)$ out-degree orientation, where $\alpha$ is the current arboricity of the graph. We demonstrate the usefulness of our low out-degree orientation algorithm by presenting a new framework to formally study batch-dynamic algorithms in bounded-arboricity graphs. Our framework obtains new provably-efficient parallel batch-dynamic algorithms for maximal matching, clique counting, and vertex coloring. We implemented and experimentally evaluated our $k$-core decomposition algorithm on a 30-core machine with two-way hyper-threading on $11$ graphs of varying densities and sizes. [...]

Click-through rate (CTR) prediction plays a critical role in recommender systems and online advertising. The data used in these applications are multi-field categorical data, where each feature belongs to one field. Field information is proved to be important and there are several works considering fields in their models. In this paper, we proposed a novel approach to model the field information effectively and efficiently. The proposed approach is a direct improvement of FwFM, and is named as Field-matrixed Factorization Machines (FmFM, or $FM^2$). We also proposed a new explanation of FM and FwFM within the FmFM framework, and compared it with the FFM. Besides pruning the cross terms, our model supports field-specific variable dimensions of embedding vectors, which acts as soft pruning. We also proposed an efficient way to minimize the dimension while keeping the model performance. The FmFM model can also be optimized further by caching the intermediate vectors, and it only takes thousands of floating-point operations (FLOPs) to make a prediction. Our experiment results show that it can out-perform the FFM, which is more complex. The FmFM model's performance is also comparable to DNN models which require much more FLOPs in runtime.

Graph convolution networks (GCN) are increasingly popular in many applications, yet remain notoriously hard to train over large graph datasets. They need to compute node representations recursively from their neighbors. Current GCN training algorithms suffer from either high computational costs that grow exponentially with the number of layers, or high memory usage for loading the entire graph and node embeddings. In this paper, we propose a novel efficient layer-wise training framework for GCN (L-GCN), that disentangles feature aggregation and feature transformation during training, hence greatly reducing time and memory complexities. We present theoretical analysis for L-GCN under the graph isomorphism framework, that L-GCN leads to as powerful GCNs as the more costly conventional training algorithm does, under mild conditions. We further propose L^2-GCN, which learns a controller for each layer that can automatically adjust the training epochs per layer in L-GCN. Experiments show that L-GCN is faster than state-of-the-arts by at least an order of magnitude, with a consistent of memory usage not dependent on dataset size, while maintaining comparable prediction performance. With the learned controller, L^2-GCN can further cut the training time in half. Our codes are available at //github.com/Shen-Lab/L2-GCN.

When labeled training data is scarce, a promising data augmentation approach is to generate visual features of unknown classes using their attributes. To learn the class conditional distribution of CNN features, these models rely on pairs of image features and class attributes. Hence, they can not make use of the abundance of unlabeled data samples. In this paper, we tackle any-shot learning problems i.e. zero-shot and few-shot, in a unified feature generating framework that operates in both inductive and transductive learning settings. We develop a conditional generative model that combines the strength of VAE and GANs and in addition, via an unconditional discriminator, learns the marginal feature distribution of unlabeled images. We empirically show that our model learns highly discriminative CNN features for five datasets, i.e. CUB, SUN, AWA and ImageNet, and establish a new state-of-the-art in any-shot learning, i.e. inductive and transductive (generalized) zero- and few-shot learning settings. We also demonstrate that our learned features are interpretable: we visualize them by inverting them back to the pixel space and we explain them by generating textual arguments of why they are associated with a certain label.

Most existing works in visual question answering (VQA) are dedicated to improving the accuracy of predicted answers, while disregarding the explanations. We argue that the explanation for an answer is of the same or even more importance compared with the answer itself, since it makes the question and answering process more understandable and traceable. To this end, we propose a new task of VQA-E (VQA with Explanation), where the computational models are required to generate an explanation with the predicted answer. We first construct a new dataset, and then frame the VQA-E problem in a multi-task learning architecture. Our VQA-E dataset is automatically derived from the VQA v2 dataset by intelligently exploiting the available captions. We have conducted a user study to validate the quality of explanations synthesized by our method. We quantitatively show that the additional supervision from explanations can not only produce insightful textual sentences to justify the answers, but also improve the performance of answer prediction. Our model outperforms the state-of-the-art methods by a clear margin on the VQA v2 dataset.
