We present a PyTorch-powered implementation of the emulator-based component analysis used for ill-posed numerical non-linear inverse problems, where an approximate emulator for the forward problem is known. This emulator may be a numerical model, an interpolating function, or a fitting function such as a neural network. With the help of the emulator and a data set, the method seeks dimensionality reduction by projection in the variable space so that maximal variance of the target (response) values of the data is covered. The obtained basis set for projection in the variable space defines a subspace of the greatest response for the outcome of the forward problem. The method allows for the reconstruction of the coordinates in this subspace for an approximate solution to the inverse problem. We present an example of using the code provided as a Python class.

Recently, creative generative artificial intelligence software has emerged as a pivotal assistant, enabling users to generate content and seek inspiration rapidly. Text-to-image (T2I) software, being one of the most widely used among them, is used to synthesize images with simple text input by engaging in a cross-modal process. However, despite substantial advancements in several fields, T2I software often encounters defects and erroneous, including omitting focal entities, low image realism, and mismatched text-image information. The cross-modal nature of T2I software makes it challenging for traditional testing methods to detect defects. Lacking test oracles further increases the complexity of testing. To address this deficiency, we propose ACTesting, an Automated Cross-modal Testing Method of Text-to-Image software, the first testing method designed specifically for T2I software. We construct test samples based on entities and relationship triples following the fundamental principle of maintaining consistency in the semantic information to overcome the cross-modal matching challenges. To address the issue of testing oracle scarcity, we first design the metamorphic relation for T2I software and implement three types of mutation operators guided by adaptability density. In the experiment, we conduct ACTesting on four widely-used T2I software. The results show that ACTesting can generate error-revealing tests, reducing the text-image consistency by up to 20% compared with the baseline. We also conduct the ablation study that effectively showcases the efficacy of each mutation operator, based on the proposed metamorphic relation. The results demonstrate that ACTesting can identify abnormal behaviors of T2I software effectively.

We propose expanding the shared Transformer module to produce and initialize Transformers of varying depths, enabling adaptation to diverse resource constraints. Drawing an analogy to genetic expansibility, we term such module as learngene. To identify the expansion mechanism, we delve into the relationship between the layer's position and its corresponding weight value, and find that linear function appropriately approximates this relationship. Building on this insight, we present Transformer as Linear Expansion of learnGene (TLEG), a novel approach for flexibly producing and initializing Transformers of diverse depths. Specifically, to learn learngene, we firstly construct an auxiliary Transformer linearly expanded from learngene, after which we train it through employing soft distillation. Subsequently, we can produce and initialize Transformers of varying depths via linearly expanding the well-trained learngene, thereby supporting diverse downstream scenarios. Extensive experiments on ImageNet-1K demonstrate that TLEG achieves comparable or better performance in contrast to many individual models trained from scratch, while reducing around 2x training cost. When transferring to several downstream classification datasets, TLEG surpasses existing initialization methods by a large margin (e.g., +6.87% on iNat 2019 and +7.66% on CIFAR-100). Under the situation where we need to produce models of varying depths adapting for different resource constraints, TLEG achieves comparable results while reducing around 19x parameters stored to initialize these models and around 5x pre-training costs, in contrast to the pre-training and fine-tuning approach. When transferring a fixed set of parameters to initialize different models, TLEG presents better flexibility and competitive performance while reducing around 2.9x parameters stored to initialize, compared to the pre-training approach.

Fractional programming (FP) plays a crucial role in wireless network design because many relevant problems involve maximizing or minimizing ratio terms. Notice that the maximization case and the minimization case of FP cannot be converted to each other in general, so they have to be dealt with separately in most of the previous studies. Thus, an existing FP method for maximizing ratios typically does not work for the minimization case, and vice versa. However, the FP objective can be mixed max-and-min, e.g., one may wish to maximize the signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio (SINR) of the legitimate receiver while minimizing that of the eavesdropper. We aim to fill the gap between max-FP and min-FP by devising a unified optimization framework. The main results are three-fold. First, we extend the existing max-FP technique called quadratic transform to the min-FP, and further develop a full generalization for the mixed case. Second. we provide a minorization-maximization (MM) interpretation of the proposed unified approach, thereby establishing its convergence and also obtaining a matrix extension; another result we obtain is a generalized Lagrangian dual transform which facilitates the solving of the logarithmic FP. Finally, we present three typical applications: the age-of-information (AoI) minimization, the Cramer-Rao bound minimization for sensing, and the secure data rate maximization, none of which can be efficiently addressed by the previous FP methods.

Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) are designed to help developers build software more effectively. Recommending the right APIs for specific tasks has gained increasing attention among researchers and developers in recent years. To comprehensively understand this research domain, we have surveyed to analyze API recommendation studies published in the last 10 years. Our study begins with an overview of the structure of API recommendation tools. Subsequently, we systematically analyze prior research and pose four key research questions. For RQ1, we examine the volume of published papers and the venues in which these papers appear within the API recommendation field. In RQ2, we categorize and summarize the prevalent data sources and collection methods employed in API recommendation research. In RQ3, we explore the types of data and common data representations utilized by API recommendation approaches. We also investigate the typical data extraction procedures and collection approaches employed by the existing approaches. RQ4 delves into the modeling techniques employed by API recommendation approaches, encompassing both statistical and deep learning models. Additionally, we compile an overview of the prevalent ranking strategies and evaluation metrics used for assessing API recommendation tools. Drawing from our survey findings, we identify current challenges in API recommendation research that warrant further exploration, along with potential avenues for future research.

Profile-based intent detection and slot filling are important tasks aimed at reducing the ambiguity in user utterances by leveraging user-specific supporting profile information. However, research in these two tasks has not been extensively explored. To fill this gap, we propose a joint model, namely JPIS, designed to enhance profile-based intent detection and slot filling. JPIS incorporates the supporting profile information into its encoder and introduces a slot-to-intent attention mechanism to transfer slot information representations to intent detection. Experimental results show that our JPIS substantially outperforms previous profile-based models, establishing a new state-of-the-art performance in overall accuracy on the Chinese benchmark dataset ProSLU.

Video-grounded Dialogue (VGD) aims to answer questions regarding a given multi-modal input comprising video, audio, and dialogue history. Although there have been numerous efforts in developing VGD systems to improve the quality of their responses, existing systems are competent only to incorporate the information in the video and text and tend to struggle in extracting the necessary information from the audio when generating appropriate responses to the question. The VGD system seems to be deaf, and thus, we coin this symptom of current systems' ignoring audio data as a deaf response. To overcome the deaf response problem, Hearing Enhanced Audio Response (HEAR) framework is proposed to perform sensible listening by selectively attending to audio whenever the question requires it. The HEAR framework enhances the accuracy and audibility of VGD systems in a model-agnostic manner. HEAR is validated on VGD datasets (i.e., AVSD@DSTC7 and AVSD@DSTC8) and shows effectiveness with various VGD systems.

Recently, despite the unprecedented success of large pre-trained visual-language models (VLMs) on a wide range of downstream tasks, the real-world unsupervised domain adaptation (UDA) problem is still not well explored. Therefore, in this paper, we first experimentally demonstrate that the unsupervised-trained VLMs can significantly reduce the distribution discrepancy between source and target domains, thereby improving the performance of UDA. However, a major challenge for directly deploying such models on downstream UDA tasks is prompt engineering, which requires aligning the domain knowledge of source and target domains, since the performance of UDA is severely influenced by a good domain-invariant representation. We further propose a Prompt-based Distribution Alignment (PDA) method to incorporate the domain knowledge into prompt learning. Specifically, PDA employs a two-branch prompt-tuning paradigm, namely base branch and alignment branch. The base branch focuses on integrating class-related representation into prompts, ensuring discrimination among different classes. To further minimize domain discrepancy, for the alignment branch, we construct feature banks for both the source and target domains and propose image-guided feature tuning (IFT) to make the input attend to feature banks, which effectively integrates self-enhanced and cross-domain features into the model. In this way, these two branches can be mutually promoted to enhance the adaptation of VLMs for UDA. We conduct extensive experiments on three benchmarks to demonstrate that our proposed PDA achieves state-of-the-art performance. The code is available at //github.com/BaiShuanghao/Prompt-based-Distribution-Alignment.

In Autonomous Driving (AD), real-time perception is a critical component responsible for detecting surrounding objects to ensure safe driving. While researchers have extensively explored the integrity of AD perception due to its safety and security implications, the aspect of availability (real-time performance) or latency has received limited attention. Existing works on latency-based attack have focused mainly on object detection, i.e., a component in camera-based AD perception, overlooking the entire camera-based AD perception, which hinders them to achieve effective system-level effects, such as vehicle crashes. In this paper, we propose SlowTrack, a novel framework for generating adversarial attacks to increase the execution time of camera-based AD perception. We propose a novel two-stage attack strategy along with the three new loss function designs. Our evaluation is conducted on four popular camera-based AD perception pipelines, and the results demonstrate that SlowTrack significantly outperforms existing latency-based attacks while maintaining comparable imperceptibility levels. Furthermore, we perform the evaluation on Baidu Apollo, an industry-grade full-stack AD system, and LGSVL, a production-grade AD simulator, with two scenarios to compare the system-level effects of SlowTrack and existing attacks. Our evaluation results show that the system-level effects can be significantly improved, i.e., the vehicle crash rate of SlowTrack is around 95% on average while existing works only have around 30%.

Recommender systems play a crucial role in mitigating the problem of information overload by suggesting users' personalized items or services. The vast majority of traditional recommender systems consider the recommendation procedure as a static process and make recommendations following a fixed strategy. In this paper, we propose a novel recommender system with the capability of continuously improving its strategies during the interactions with users. We model the sequential interactions between users and a recommender system as a Markov Decision Process (MDP) and leverage Reinforcement Learning (RL) to automatically learn the optimal strategies via recommending trial-and-error items and receiving reinforcements of these items from users' feedbacks. In particular, we introduce an online user-agent interacting environment simulator, which can pre-train and evaluate model parameters offline before applying the model online. Moreover, we validate the importance of list-wise recommendations during the interactions between users and agent, and develop a novel approach to incorporate them into the proposed framework LIRD for list-wide recommendations. The experimental results based on a real-world e-commerce dataset demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed framework.
