In the problem of estimating target parameters in nonparametric models with nuisance parameters, substituting the unknown nuisances with nonparametric estimators can introduce "plug-in bias." Traditional methods addressing this sub-optimal bias-variance trade-offs rely on the influence function (IF) of the target parameter. When estimating multiple target parameters, these methods require debiasing the nuisance parameter multiple times using the corresponding IFs, posing analytical and computational challenges. In this work, we leverage the targeted maximum likelihood estimation framework to propose a novel method named kernel debiased plug-in estimation (KDPE). KDPE refines an initial estimate through regularized likelihood maximization steps, employing a nonparametric model based on reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces. We show that KDPE (i) simultaneously debiases all pathwise differentiable target parameters that satisfy our regularity conditions, (ii) does not require the IF for implementation, and (iii) remains computationally tractable. We numerically illustrate the use of KDPE and validate our theoretical results.

In the present paper, we prove a new theorem, resulting in an update formula for linear regression model residuals calculating the exact k-fold cross-validation residuals for any choice of cross-validation strategy without model refitting. The required matrix inversions are limited by the cross-validation segment sizes and can be executed with high efficiency in parallel. The well-known formula for leave-one-out cross-validation follows as a special case of the theorem. In situations where the cross-validation segments consist of small groups of repeated measurements, we suggest a heuristic strategy for fast serial approximations of the cross-validated residuals and associated Predicted Residual Sum of Squares (PRESS) statistic. We also suggest strategies for efficient estimation of the minimum PRESS value and full PRESS function over a selected interval of regularisation values. The computational effectiveness of the parameter selection for Ridge- and Tikhonov regression modelling resulting from our theoretical findings and heuristic arguments is demonstrated in several applications with real and highly multivariate datasets.

The power requirements posed by the fifth-generation and beyond cellular networks are an important constraint in network deployment and require energy-efficient solutions. In this work, we propose a novel user load transfer approach using airborne base stations (BS) mounted on drones for reliable and secure power redistribution across the micro-grid network comprising green small cell BSs. Depending on the user density and the availability of an aerial BS, the energy requirement of a cell with an energy deficit is accommodated by migrating the aerial BS from a high-energy to a low-energy cell. The proposed hybrid drone-based framework integrates long short-term memory with unique cost functions using an evolutionary neural network for drones and BSs and efficiently manages energy and load redistribution. The proposed algorithm reduces power outages at BSs and maintains consistent throughput stability, thereby demonstrating its capability to boost the reliability and robustness of wireless communication systems.

A filter for inertial-based odometry is a recursive method used to estimate the pose from measurements of ego-motion and relative pose. Currently, there is no known filter that guarantees the computation of a globally optimal solution for the non-linear measurement model. In this paper, we demonstrate that an innovative filter, with the state being $SE_2(3)$ and the $\sqrt{n}$-\textit{consistent} pose as the initialization, efficiently achieves \textit{asymptotic optimality} in terms of minimum mean square error. This approach is tailored for real-time SLAM and inertial-based odometry applications. Our first contribution is that we propose an iterative filtering method based on the Gauss-Newton method on Lie groups which is numerically to solve the estimation of states from a priori and non-linear measurements. The filtering stands out due to its iterative mechanism and adaptive initialization. Second, when dealing with environmental measurements of the surroundings, we utilize a $\sqrt{n}$-consistent pose as the initial value for the update step in a single iteration. The solution is closed in form and has computational complexity $O(n)$. Third, we theoretically show that the approach can achieve asymptotic optimality in the sense of minimum mean square error from the a priori and virtual relative pose measurements (see Problem~\ref{prob:new update problem}). Finally, to validate our method, we carry out extensive numerical and experimental evaluations. Our results consistently demonstrate that our approach outperforms other state-of-the-art filter-based methods, including the iterated extended Kalman filter and the invariant extended Kalman filter, in terms of accuracy and running time.

Decoding of Low-Density Parity Check (LDPC) codes can be viewed as a special case of XOR-SAT problems, for which low-computational complexity bit-flipping algorithms have been proposed in the literature. However, a performance gap exists between the bit-flipping LDPC decoding algorithms and the benchmark LDPC decoding algorithms, such as the Sum-Product Algorithm (SPA). In this paper, we propose an XOR-SAT solver using log-sum-exponential functions and demonstrate its advantages for LDPC decoding. This is then approximated using the Margin Propagation formulation to attain a low-complexity LDPC decoder. The proposed algorithm uses soft information to decide the bit-flips that maximize the number of parity check constraints satisfied over an optimization function. The proposed solver can achieve results that are within $0.1$dB of the Sum-Product Algorithm for the same number of code iterations. It is also at least 10x lesser than other Gradient-Descent Bit Flipping decoding algorithms, which are also bit-flipping algorithms based on optimization functions. The approximation using the Margin Propagation formulation does not require any multipliers, resulting in significantly lower computational complexity than other soft-decision Bit-Flipping LDPC decoders.

We present a theoretical and empirical analysis of the adaptive entry point selection for graph-based approximate nearest neighbor search (ANNS). We introduce novel concepts: $b\textit{-monotonic path}$ and $B\textit{-MSNET}$, which better capture an actual graph in practical algorithms than existing concepts like MSNET. We prove that adaptive entry point selection offers better performance upper bound than the fixed central entry point under more general conditions than previous work. Empirically, we validate the method's effectiveness in accuracy, speed, and memory usage across various datasets, especially in challenging scenarios with out-of-distribution data and hard instances. Our comprehensive study provides deeper insights into optimizing entry points for graph-based ANNS for real-world high-dimensional data applications.

Conventional methods for object detection typically require a substantial amount of training data and preparing such high-quality training data is very labor-intensive. In this paper, we propose a novel few-shot object detection network that aims at detecting objects of unseen categories with only a few annotated examples. Central to our method are our Attention-RPN, Multi-Relation Detector and Contrastive Training strategy, which exploit the similarity between the few shot support set and query set to detect novel objects while suppressing false detection in the background. To train our network, we contribute a new dataset that contains 1000 categories of various objects with high-quality annotations. To the best of our knowledge, this is one of the first datasets specifically designed for few-shot object detection. Once our few-shot network is trained, it can detect objects of unseen categories without further training or fine-tuning. Our method is general and has a wide range of potential applications. We produce a new state-of-the-art performance on different datasets in the few-shot setting. The dataset link is //github.com/fanq15/Few-Shot-Object-Detection-Dataset.

The recent proliferation of knowledge graphs (KGs) coupled with incomplete or partial information, in the form of missing relations (links) between entities, has fueled a lot of research on knowledge base completion (also known as relation prediction). Several recent works suggest that convolutional neural network (CNN) based models generate richer and more expressive feature embeddings and hence also perform well on relation prediction. However, we observe that these KG embeddings treat triples independently and thus fail to cover the complex and hidden information that is inherently implicit in the local neighborhood surrounding a triple. To this effect, our paper proposes a novel attention based feature embedding that captures both entity and relation features in any given entity's neighborhood. Additionally, we also encapsulate relation clusters and multihop relations in our model. Our empirical study offers insights into the efficacy of our attention based model and we show marked performance gains in comparison to state of the art methods on all datasets.

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.

Multi-relation Question Answering is a challenging task, due to the requirement of elaborated analysis on questions and reasoning over multiple fact triples in knowledge base. In this paper, we present a novel model called Interpretable Reasoning Network that employs an interpretable, hop-by-hop reasoning process for question answering. The model dynamically decides which part of an input question should be analyzed at each hop; predicts a relation that corresponds to the current parsed results; utilizes the predicted relation to update the question representation and the state of the reasoning process; and then drives the next-hop reasoning. Experiments show that our model yields state-of-the-art results on two datasets. More interestingly, the model can offer traceable and observable intermediate predictions for reasoning analysis and failure diagnosis.
