The Capacitated Vehicle Routing Problem (CVRP) is an NP-optimization problem (NPO) that arises in various fields including transportation and logistics. The CVRP extends from the Vehicle Routing Problem (VRP), aiming to determine the most efficient plan for a fleet of vehicles to deliver goods to a set of customers, subject to the limited carrying capacity of each vehicle. As the number of possible solutions skyrockets when the number of customers increases, finding the optimal solution remains a significant challenge. Recently, a quantum-classical hybrid algorithm known as Quantum Approximate Optimization Algorithm (QAOA) can provide better solutions in some cases of combinatorial optimization problems, compared to classical heuristics. However, the QAOA exhibits a diminished ability to produce high-quality solutions for some constrained optimization problems including the CVRP. One potential approach for improvement involves a variation of the QAOA known as the Grover-Mixer Quantum Alternating Operator Ansatz (GM-QAOA). In this work, we attempt to use GM-QAOA to solve the CVRP. We present a new binary encoding for the CVRP, with an alternative objective function of minimizing the shortest path that bypasses the vehicle capacity constraint of the CVRP. The search space is further restricted by the Grover-Mixer. We examine and discuss the effectiveness of the proposed solver through its application to several illustrative examples.

Over-the-air federated learning (OTA-FL) integrates communication and model aggregation by exploiting the innate superposition property of wireless channels. The approach renders bandwidth efficient learning, but requires care in handling the wireless physical layer impairments. In this paper, federated edge learning is considered for a network that is heterogeneous with respect to client (edge node) data set distributions and individual client resources, under a general non-convex learning objective. We augment the wireless OTA-FL system with a Reconfigurable Intelligent Surface (RIS) to enable a propagation environment with improved learning performance in a realistic time varying physical layer. Our approach is a cross-layer perspective that jointly optimizes communication, computation and learning resources, in this general heterogeneous setting. We adapt the local computation steps and transmission power of the clients in conjunction with the RIS phase shifts. The resulting joint communication and learning algorithm, RIS-assisted Over-the-air Adaptive Resource Allocation for Federated learning (ROAR-Fed) is shown to be convergent in this general setting. Numerical results demonstrate the effectiveness of ROAR-Fed under heterogeneous (non i.i.d.) data and imperfect CSI, indicating the advantage of RIS assisted learning in this general set up.

In this paper, we propose a new method called Clustering Topological PRM (CTopPRM) for finding multiple homotopically distinct paths in 3D cluttered environments. Finding such distinct paths, e.g., going around an obstacle from a different side, is useful in many applications. Among others, using multiple distinct paths is necessary for optimization-based trajectory planners where found trajectories are restricted to only a single homotopy class of a given path. Distinct paths can also be used to guide sampling-based motion planning and thus increase the effectiveness of planning in environments with narrow passages. Graph-based representation called roadmap is a common representation for path planning and also for finding multiple distinct paths. However, challenging environments with multiple narrow passages require a densely sampled roadmap to capture the connectivity of the environment. Searching such a dense roadmap for multiple paths is computationally too expensive. Therefore, the majority of existing methods construct only a sparse roadmap which, however, struggles to find all distinct paths in challenging environments. To this end, we propose the CTopPRM which creates a sparse graph by clustering an initially sampled dense roadmap. Such a reduced roadmap allows fast identification of homotopically distinct paths captured in the dense roadmap. We show, that compared to the existing methods the CTopPRM improves the probability of finding all distinct paths by almost 20% in tested environments, during same run-time. The source code of our method is released as an open-source package.

The rise in popularity of ChatGPT and GPT-4 has significantly accelerated the development of large models, leading to the creation of numerous impressive large language models(LLMs) and multimodal large language models (MLLMs). These cutting-edge models owe their remarkable performance to high-quality data. However, the details of the training data used in leading paradigms are often kept confidential. This lack of transparency, coupled with the scarcity of open-source data, impedes further developments within the community. As a response, this paper presents "Wan Juan", a large-scale multimodal dataset composed of both Chinese and English data, collected from a wide range of web sources. The dataset incorporates text, image-text, and video modalities, with a total volume exceeding 2TB. It was utilized in the training of InternLM, a model that demonstrated significant advantages in multi-dimensional evaluations when compared to models of a similar scale. All data can be accessed at //opendatalab.org.cn/WanJuan1.0.

Background noise considerably reduces the accuracy and reliability of speaker verification (SV) systems. These challenges can be addressed using a speech enhancement system as a front-end module. Recently, diffusion probabilistic models (DPMs) have exhibited remarkable noise-compensation capabilities in the speech enhancement domain. Building on this success, we propose Diff-SV, a noise-robust SV framework that leverages DPM. Diff-SV unifies a DPM-based speech enhancement system with a speaker embedding extractor, and yields a discriminative and noise-tolerable speaker representation through a hierarchical structure. The proposed model was evaluated under both in-domain and out-of-domain noisy conditions using the VoxCeleb1 test set, an external noise source, and the VOiCES corpus. The obtained experimental results demonstrate that Diff-SV achieves state-of-the-art performance, outperforming recently proposed noise-robust SV systems.

Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) have gained momentum in graph representation learning and boosted the state of the art in a variety of areas, such as data mining (\emph{e.g.,} social network analysis and recommender systems), computer vision (\emph{e.g.,} object detection and point cloud learning), and natural language processing (\emph{e.g.,} relation extraction and sequence learning), to name a few. With the emergence of Transformers in natural language processing and computer vision, graph Transformers embed a graph structure into the Transformer architecture to overcome the limitations of local neighborhood aggregation while avoiding strict structural inductive biases. In this paper, we present a comprehensive review of GNNs and graph Transformers in computer vision from a task-oriented perspective. Specifically, we divide their applications in computer vision into five categories according to the modality of input data, \emph{i.e.,} 2D natural images, videos, 3D data, vision + language, and medical images. In each category, we further divide the applications according to a set of vision tasks. Such a task-oriented taxonomy allows us to examine how each task is tackled by different GNN-based approaches and how well these approaches perform. Based on the necessary preliminaries, we provide the definitions and challenges of the tasks, in-depth coverage of the representative approaches, as well as discussions regarding insights, limitations, and future directions.

Deep learning has shown great potential for modeling the physical dynamics of complex particle systems such as fluids (in Lagrangian descriptions). Existing approaches, however, require the supervision of consecutive particle properties, including positions and velocities. In this paper, we consider a partially observable scenario known as fluid dynamics grounding, that is, inferring the state transitions and interactions within the fluid particle systems from sequential visual observations of the fluid surface. We propose a differentiable two-stage network named NeuroFluid. Our approach consists of (i) a particle-driven neural renderer, which involves fluid physical properties into the volume rendering function, and (ii) a particle transition model optimized to reduce the differences between the rendered and the observed images. NeuroFluid provides the first solution to unsupervised learning of particle-based fluid dynamics by training these two models jointly. It is shown to reasonably estimate the underlying physics of fluids with different initial shapes, viscosity, and densities. It is a potential alternative approach to understanding complex fluid mechanics, such as turbulence, that are difficult to model using traditional methods of mathematical physics.

Weakly-Supervised Object Detection (WSOD) and Localization (WSOL), i.e., detecting multiple and single instances with bounding boxes in an image using image-level labels, are long-standing and challenging tasks in the CV community. With the success of deep neural networks in object detection, both WSOD and WSOL have received unprecedented attention. Hundreds of WSOD and WSOL methods and numerous techniques have been proposed in the deep learning era. To this end, in this paper, we consider WSOL is a sub-task of WSOD and provide a comprehensive survey of the recent achievements of WSOD. Specifically, we firstly describe the formulation and setting of the WSOD, including the background, challenges, basic framework. Meanwhile, we summarize and analyze all advanced techniques and training tricks for improving detection performance. Then, we introduce the widely-used datasets and evaluation metrics of WSOD. Lastly, we discuss the future directions of WSOD. We believe that these summaries can help pave a way for future research on WSOD and WSOL.

Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) have received considerable attention on graph-structured data learning for a wide variety of tasks. The well-designed propagation mechanism which has been demonstrated effective is the most fundamental part of GNNs. Although most of GNNs basically follow a message passing manner, litter effort has been made to discover and analyze their essential relations. In this paper, we establish a surprising connection between different propagation mechanisms with a unified optimization problem, showing that despite the proliferation of various GNNs, in fact, their proposed propagation mechanisms are the optimal solution optimizing a feature fitting function over a wide class of graph kernels with a graph regularization term. Our proposed unified optimization framework, summarizing the commonalities between several of the most representative GNNs, not only provides a macroscopic view on surveying the relations between different GNNs, but also further opens up new opportunities for flexibly designing new GNNs. With the proposed framework, we discover that existing works usually utilize naive graph convolutional kernels for feature fitting function, and we further develop two novel objective functions considering adjustable graph kernels showing low-pass or high-pass filtering capabilities respectively. Moreover, we provide the convergence proofs and expressive power comparisons for the proposed models. Extensive experiments on benchmark datasets clearly show that the proposed GNNs not only outperform the state-of-the-art methods but also have good ability to alleviate over-smoothing, and further verify the feasibility for designing GNNs with our unified optimization framework.

State-of-the-art Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) benefits a lot from multi-task learning (MTL), which learns multiple related tasks simultaneously to obtain shared or mutually related representations for different tasks. The most widely-used MTL CNN structure is based on an empirical or heuristic split on a specific layer (e.g., the last convolutional layer) to minimize different task-specific losses. However, this heuristic sharing/splitting strategy may be harmful to the final performance of one or multiple tasks. In this paper, we propose a novel CNN structure for MTL, which enables automatic feature fusing at every layer. Specifically, we first concatenate features from different tasks according to their channel dimension, and then formulate the feature fusing problem as discriminative dimensionality reduction. We show that this discriminative dimensionality reduction can be done by 1x1 Convolution, Batch Normalization, and Weight Decay in one CNN, which we refer to as Neural Discriminative Dimensionality Reduction (NDDR). We perform ablation analysis in details for different configurations in training the network. The experiments carried out on different network structures and different task sets demonstrate the promising performance and desirable generalizability of our proposed method.
