Federated Learning (FL) is a decentralized machine learning framework that enables collaborative model training while respecting data privacy. In various applications, non-uniform availability or participation of users is unavoidable due to an adverse or stochastic environment, the latter often being uncontrollable during learning. Here, we posit a generic user selection mechanism implementing a possibly randomized, stationary selection policy, suggestively termed as a Random Access Model (RAM). We propose a new formulation of the FL problem which effectively captures and mitigates limited participation of data originating from infrequent, or restricted users, at the presence of a RAM. By employing the Conditional Value-at-Risk (CVaR) over the (unknown) RAM distribution, we extend the expected loss FL objective to a risk-aware objective, enabling the design of an efficient training algorithm that is completely oblivious to the RAM, and with essentially identical complexity as FedAvg. Our experiments on synthetic and benchmark datasets show that the proposed approach achieves significantly improved performance as compared with standard FL, under a variety of setups.

Sentence embeddings enable us to capture the semantic similarity of short texts. Most sentence embedding models are trained for general semantic textual similarity tasks. Therefore, to use sentence embeddings in a particular domain, the model must be adapted to it in order to achieve good results. Usually, this is done by fine-tuning the entire sentence embedding model for the domain of interest. While this approach yields state-of-the-art results, all of the model's weights are updated during fine-tuning, making this method resource-intensive. Therefore, instead of fine-tuning entire sentence embedding models for each target domain individually, we propose to train lightweight adapters. These domain-specific adapters do not require fine-tuning all underlying sentence embedding model parameters. Instead, we only train a small number of additional parameters while keeping the weights of the underlying sentence embedding model fixed. Training domain-specific adapters allows always using the same base model and only exchanging the domain-specific adapters to adapt sentence embeddings to a specific domain. We show that using adapters for parameter-efficient domain adaptation of sentence embeddings yields competitive performance within 1% of a domain-adapted, entirely fine-tuned sentence embedding model while only training approximately 3.6% of the parameters.

Large language models (LLMs) provide a new way to build chatbots by accepting natural language prompts. Yet, it is unclear how to design prompts to power chatbots to carry on naturalistic conversations while pursuing a given goal, such as collecting self-report data from users. We explore what design factors of prompts can help steer chatbots to talk naturally and collect data reliably. To this aim, we formulated four prompt designs with different structures and personas. Through an online study (N = 48) where participants conversed with chatbots driven by different designs of prompts, we assessed how prompt designs and conversation topics affected the conversation flows and users' perceptions of chatbots. Our chatbots covered 79% of the desired information slots during conversations, and the designs of prompts and topics significantly influenced the conversation flows and the data collection performance. We discuss the opportunities and challenges of building chatbots with LLMs.

At present, implementation of learning mechanisms in spiking neural networks (SNN) cannot be considered as a solved scientific problem despite plenty of SNN learning algorithms proposed. It is also true for SNN implementation of reinforcement learning (RL), while RL is especially important for SNNs because of its close relationship to the domains most promising from the viewpoint of SNN application such as robotics. In the present paper, I describe an SNN structure which, seemingly, can be used in wide range of RL tasks. The distinctive feature of my approach is usage of only the spike forms of all signals involved - sensory input streams, output signals sent to actuators and reward/punishment signals. Besides that, selecting the neuron/plasticity models, I was guided by the requirement that they should be easily implemented on modern neurochips. The SNN structure considered in the paper includes spiking neurons described by a generalization of the LIFAT (leaky integrate-and-fire neuron with adaptive threshold) model and a simple spike timing dependent synaptic plasticity model (a generalization of dopamine-modulated plasticity). My concept is based on very general assumptions about RL task characteristics and has no visible limitations on its applicability. To test it, I selected a simple but non-trivial task of training the network to keep a chaotically moving light spot in the view field of an emulated DVS camera. Successful solution of this RL problem by the SNN described can be considered as evidence in favor of efficiency of my approach.

Although pre-trained large language models (PLMs) have achieved state-of-the-art on many NLP tasks, they lack understanding of subtle expressions of implicit hate speech. Such nuanced and implicit hate is often misclassified as non-hate. Various attempts have been made to enhance the detection of (implicit) hate content by augmenting external context or enforcing label separation via distance-based metrics. We combine these two approaches and introduce FiADD, a novel Focused Inferential Adaptive Density Discrimination framework. FiADD enhances the PLM finetuning pipeline by bringing the surface form of an implicit hate speech closer to its implied form while increasing the inter-cluster distance among various class labels. We test FiADD on three implicit hate datasets and observe significant improvement in the two-way and three-way hate classification tasks. We further experiment on the generalizability of FiADD on three other tasks, namely detecting sarcasm, irony, and stance, in which surface and implied forms differ, and observe similar performance improvement. We analyze the generated latent space to understand its evolution under FiADD, which corroborates the advantage of employing FiADD for implicit hate speech detection.

Recognizing human actions in video sequences, known as Human Action Recognition (HAR), is a challenging task in pattern recognition. While Convolutional Neural Networks (ConvNets) have shown remarkable success in image recognition, they are not always directly applicable to HAR, as temporal features are critical for accurate classification. In this paper, we propose a novel dynamic PSO-ConvNet model for learning actions in videos, building on our recent work in image recognition. Our approach leverages a framework where the weight vector of each neural network represents the position of a particle in phase space, and particles share their current weight vectors and gradient estimates of the Loss function. To extend our approach to video, we integrate ConvNets with state-of-the-art temporal methods such as Transformer and Recurrent Neural Networks. Our experimental results on the UCF-101 dataset demonstrate substantial improvements of up to 9% in accuracy, which confirms the effectiveness of our proposed method. In addition, we conducted experiments on larger and more variety of datasets including Kinetics-400 and HMDB-51 and obtained preference for Collaborative Learning in comparison with Non-Collaborative Learning (Individual Learning). Overall, our dynamic PSO-ConvNet model provides a promising direction for improving HAR by better capturing the spatio-temporal dynamics of human actions in videos.

While large language models (LLMs) have demonstrated impressive performance in question-answering tasks, their performance is limited when the questions require knowledge that is not included in the model's training data and can only be acquired through direct observation or interaction with the real world. Existing methods decompose reasoning tasks through the use of modules invoked sequentially, limiting their ability to answer deep reasoning tasks. We introduce a method, Recursion based extensible LLM (REBEL), which handles open-world, deep reasoning tasks by employing automated reasoning techniques like dynamic planning and forward-chaining strategies. REBEL allows LLMs to reason via recursive problem decomposition and utilization of external tools. The tools that REBEL uses are specified only by natural language description. We further demonstrate REBEL capabilities on a set of problems that require a deeply nested use of external tools in a compositional and conversational setting.

With the rise of powerful pre-trained vision-language models like CLIP, it becomes essential to investigate ways to adapt these models to downstream datasets. A recently proposed method named Context Optimization (CoOp) introduces the concept of prompt learning -- a recent trend in NLP -- to the vision domain for adapting pre-trained vision-language models. Specifically, CoOp turns context words in a prompt into a set of learnable vectors and, with only a few labeled images for learning, can achieve huge improvements over intensively-tuned manual prompts. In our study we identify a critical problem of CoOp: the learned context is not generalizable to wider unseen classes within the same dataset, suggesting that CoOp overfits base classes observed during training. To address the problem, we propose Conditional Context Optimization (CoCoOp), which extends CoOp by further learning a lightweight neural network to generate for each image an input-conditional token (vector). Compared to CoOp's static prompts, our dynamic prompts adapt to each instance and are thus less sensitive to class shift. Extensive experiments show that CoCoOp generalizes much better than CoOp to unseen classes, even showing promising transferability beyond a single dataset; and yields stronger domain generalization performance as well. Code is available at //github.com/KaiyangZhou/CoOp.

Few-shot Knowledge Graph (KG) completion is a focus of current research, where each task aims at querying unseen facts of a relation given its few-shot reference entity pairs. Recent attempts solve this problem by learning static representations of entities and references, ignoring their dynamic properties, i.e., entities may exhibit diverse roles within task relations, and references may make different contributions to queries. This work proposes an adaptive attentional network for few-shot KG completion by learning adaptive entity and reference representations. Specifically, entities are modeled by an adaptive neighbor encoder to discern their task-oriented roles, while references are modeled by an adaptive query-aware aggregator to differentiate their contributions. Through the attention mechanism, both entities and references can capture their fine-grained semantic meanings, and thus render more expressive representations. This will be more predictive for knowledge acquisition in the few-shot scenario. Evaluation in link prediction on two public datasets shows that our approach achieves new state-of-the-art results with different few-shot sizes.

Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) have recently been used for node and graph classification tasks with great success, but GNNs model dependencies among the attributes of nearby neighboring nodes rather than dependencies among observed node labels. In this work, we consider the task of inductive node classification using GNNs in supervised and semi-supervised settings, with the goal of incorporating label dependencies. Because current GNNs are not universal (i.e., most-expressive) graph representations, we propose a general collective learning approach to increase the representation power of any existing GNN. Our framework combines ideas from collective classification with self-supervised learning, and uses a Monte Carlo approach to sampling embeddings for inductive learning across graphs. We evaluate performance on five real-world network datasets and demonstrate consistent, significant improvement in node classification accuracy, for a variety of state-of-the-art GNNs.
