Cooperative inference in Mobile Edge Computing (MEC), achieved by deploying partitioned Deep Neural Network (DNN) models between resource-constrained user equipments (UEs) and edge servers (ESs), has emerged as a promising paradigm. Firstly, we consider scenarios of continuous Artificial Intelligence (AI) task arrivals, like the object detection for video streams, and utilize a serial queuing model for the accurate evaluation of End-to-End (E2E) delay in cooperative edge inference. Secondly, to enhance the long-term performance of inference systems, we formulate a multi-slot stochastic E2E delay optimization problem that jointly considers model partitioning and multi-dimensional resource allocation. Finally, to solve this problem, we introduce a Lyapunov-guided Multi-Dimensional Optimization algorithm (LyMDO) that decouples the original problem into per-slot deterministic problems, where Deep Reinforcement Learning (DRL) and convex optimization are used for joint optimization of partitioning decisions and complementary resource allocation. Simulation results show that our approach effectively improves E2E delay while balancing long-term resource constraints.

Accident of struck-by machines is one of the leading causes of casualties on construction sites. Monitoring workers' proximities to avoid human-machine collisions has aroused great concern in construction safety management. Existing methods are either too laborious and costly to apply extensively, or lacking spatial perception for accurate monitoring. Therefore, this study proposes a novel framework for proximity monitoring using only an ordinary 2D camera to realize real-time human-machine collision warning, which is designed to integrate a monocular 3D object detection model to perceive spatial information from 2D images and a post-processing classification module to identify the proximity as four predefined categories: Dangerous, Potentially Dangerous, Concerned, and Safe. A virtual dataset containing 22000 images with 3D annotations is constructed and publicly released to facilitate the system development and evaluation. Experimental results show that the trained 3D object detection model achieves 75% loose AP within 20 meters. Besides, the implemented system is real-time and camera carrier-independent, achieving an F1 of roughly 0.8 within 50 meters under specified settings for machines of different sizes. This study preliminarily reveals the potential and feasibility of proximity monitoring using only a 2D camera, providing a new promising and economical way for early warning of human-machine collisions.

While the accuracy-fairness trade-off has been frequently observed in the literature of fair machine learning, rigorous theoretical analyses have been scarce. To demystify this long-standing challenge, this work seeks to develop a theoretical framework by characterizing the shape of the accuracy-fairness trade-off Pareto frontier (FairFrontier), determined by a set of all optimal Pareto classifiers that no other classifiers can dominate. Specifically, we first demonstrate the existence of the trade-off in real-world scenarios and then propose four potential categories to characterize the important properties of the accuracy-fairness Pareto frontier. For each category, we identify the necessary conditions that lead to corresponding trade-offs. Experimental results on synthetic data suggest insightful findings of the proposed framework: (1) When sensitive attributes can be fully interpreted by non-sensitive attributes, FairFrontier is mostly continuous. (2) Accuracy can suffer a \textit{sharp} decline when over-pursuing fairness. (3) Eliminate the trade-off via a two-step streamlined approach. The proposed research enables an in-depth understanding of the accuracy-fairness trade-off, pushing current fair machine-learning research to a new frontier.

In light of the vulnerability of deep learning models to adversarial samples and the ensuing security issues, a range of methods, including Adversarial Training (AT) as a prominent representative, aimed at enhancing model robustness against various adversarial attacks, have seen rapid development. However, existing methods essentially assist the current state of target model to defend against parameter-oriented adversarial attacks with explicit or implicit computation burdens, which also suffers from unstable convergence behavior due to inconsistency of optimization trajectories. Diverging from previous work, this paper reconsiders the update rule of target model and corresponding deficiency to defend based on its current state. By introducing the historical state of the target model as a proxy, which is endowed with much prior information for defense, we formulate a two-stage update rule, resulting in a general adversarial defense framework, which we refer to as `LAST' ({\bf L}earn from the P{\bf ast}). Besides, we devise a Self Distillation (SD) based defense objective to constrain the update process of the proxy model without the introduction of larger teacher models. Experimentally, we demonstrate consistent and significant performance enhancements by refining a series of single-step and multi-step AT methods (e.g., up to $\bf 9.2\%$ and $\bf 20.5\%$ improvement of Robust Accuracy (RA) on CIFAR10 and CIFAR100 datasets, respectively) across various datasets, backbones and attack modalities, and validate its ability to enhance training stability and ameliorate catastrophic overfitting issues meanwhile.

The digitization of manufacturing processes enables promising applications for machine learning-assisted quality assurance. A widely used manufacturing process that can strongly benefit from data-driven solutions is \ac{GMAW}. The welding process is characterized by complex cause-effect relationships between material properties, process conditions and weld quality. In non-laboratory environments with frequently changing process parameters, accurate determination of weld quality by destructive testing is economically unfeasible. Deep learning offers the potential to identify the relationships in available process data and predict the weld quality from process observations. In this paper, we present a concept for a deep learning based predictive quality system in \ac{GMAW}. At its core, the concept involves a pipeline consisting of four major phases: collection and management of multi-sensor data (e.g. current and voltage), real-time processing and feature engineering of the time series data by means of autoencoders, training and deployment of suitable recurrent deep learning models for quality predictions, and model evolutions under changing process conditions using continual learning. The concept provides the foundation for future research activities in which we will realize an online predictive quality system for running production.

Noise reduction techniques based on deep learning have demonstrated impressive performance in enhancing the overall quality of recorded speech. While these approaches are highly performant, their application in audio engineering can be limited due to a number of factors. These include operation only on speech without support for music, lack of real-time capability, lack of interpretable control parameters, operation at lower sample rates, and a tendency to introduce artifacts. On the other hand, signal processing-based noise reduction algorithms offer fine-grained control and operation on a broad range of content, however, they often require manual operation to achieve the best results. To address the limitations of both approaches, in this work we introduce a method that leverages a signal processing-based denoiser that when combined with a neural network controller, enables fully automatic and high-fidelity noise reduction on both speech and music signals. We evaluate our proposed method with objective metrics and a perceptual listening test. Our evaluation reveals that speech enhancement models can be extended to music, however training the model to remove only stationary noise is critical. Furthermore, our proposed approach achieves performance on par with the deep learning models, while being significantly more efficient and introducing fewer artifacts in some cases.

The rapid advancements in machine learning across numerous industries have amplified the demand for extensive matrix-vector multiplication operations, thereby challenging the capacities of traditional von Neumann computing architectures. To address this, researchers are currently exploring alternatives such as in-memory computing systems to develop faster and more energy-efficient hardware. In particular, there is renewed interest in computing systems based on optics, which could potentially handle matrix-vector multiplication in a more energy-efficient way. Despite promising initial results, developing a highly parallel, programmable, and scalable optical computing system capable of rivaling electronic computing hardware still remains elusive. In this context, we propose a hyperspectral in-memory computing architecture that integrates space multiplexing with frequency multiplexing of optical frequency combs and uses spatial light modulators as a programmable optical memory, thereby boosting the computational throughput and the energy efficiency. We have experimentally demonstrated multiply-accumulate operations with higher than 4-bit precision in both matrix-vector and matrix-matrix multiplications, which suggests the system's potential for a wide variety of deep learning and optimization tasks. This system exhibits extraordinary modularity, scalability, and programmability, effectively transcending the traditional limitations of optics-based computing architectures. Our approach demonstrates the potential to scale beyond peta operations per second, marking a significant step towards achieving high-throughput energy-efficient optical computing.

The growing dependence on machine learning in real-world applications emphasizes the importance of understanding and ensuring its safety. Backdoor attacks pose a significant security risk due to their stealthy nature and potentially serious consequences. Such attacks involve embedding triggers within a learning model with the intention of causing malicious behavior when an active trigger is present while maintaining regular functionality without it. This paper evaluates the effectiveness of any backdoor attack incorporating a constant trigger, by establishing tight lower and upper boundaries for the performance of the compromised model on both clean and backdoor test data. The developed theory answers a series of fundamental but previously underexplored problems, including (1) what are the determining factors for a backdoor attack's success, (2) what is the direction of the most effective backdoor attack, and (3) when will a human-imperceptible trigger succeed. Our derived understanding applies to both discriminative and generative models. We also demonstrate the theory by conducting experiments using benchmark datasets and state-of-the-art backdoor attack scenarios.

Most object recognition approaches predominantly focus on learning discriminative visual patterns while overlooking the holistic object structure. Though important, structure modeling usually requires significant manual annotations and therefore is labor-intensive. In this paper, we propose to "look into object" (explicitly yet intrinsically model the object structure) through incorporating self-supervisions into the traditional framework. We show the recognition backbone can be substantially enhanced for more robust representation learning, without any cost of extra annotation and inference speed. Specifically, we first propose an object-extent learning module for localizing the object according to the visual patterns shared among the instances in the same category. We then design a spatial context learning module for modeling the internal structures of the object, through predicting the relative positions within the extent. These two modules can be easily plugged into any backbone networks during training and detached at inference time. Extensive experiments show that our look-into-object approach (LIO) achieves large performance gain on a number of benchmarks, including generic object recognition (ImageNet) and fine-grained object recognition tasks (CUB, Cars, Aircraft). We also show that this learning paradigm is highly generalizable to other tasks such as object detection and segmentation (MS COCO). Project page: //github.com/JDAI-CV/LIO.

Object detection typically assumes that training and test data are drawn from an identical distribution, which, however, does not always hold in practice. Such a distribution mismatch will lead to a significant performance drop. In this work, we aim to improve the cross-domain robustness of object detection. We tackle the domain shift on two levels: 1) the image-level shift, such as image style, illumination, etc, and 2) the instance-level shift, such as object appearance, size, etc. We build our approach based on the recent state-of-the-art Faster R-CNN model, and design two domain adaptation components, on image level and instance level, to reduce the domain discrepancy. The two domain adaptation components are based on H-divergence theory, and are implemented by learning a domain classifier in adversarial training manner. The domain classifiers on different levels are further reinforced with a consistency regularization to learn a domain-invariant region proposal network (RPN) in the Faster R-CNN model. We evaluate our newly proposed approach using multiple datasets including Cityscapes, KITTI, SIM10K, etc. The results demonstrate the effectiveness of our proposed approach for robust object detection in various domain shift scenarios.
