Existing explanation methods for image classification struggle to provide faithful and plausible explanations. This paper addresses this issue by proposing a post-hoc natural language explanation method that can be applied to any CNN-based classifier without altering its training process or affecting predictive performance. By analysing influential neurons and the corresponding activation maps, the method generates a faithful description of the classifier's decision process in the form of a structured meaning representation, which is then converted into text by a language model. Through this pipeline approach, the generated explanations are grounded in the neural network architecture, providing accurate insight into the classification process while remaining accessible to non-experts. Experimental results show that the NLEs constructed by our method are significantly more plausible and faithful. In particular, user interventions in the neural network structure (masking of neurons) are three times more effective than the baselines.

This paper presents a novel technique for accelerating inference in large, pre-trained language models (LLMs) by introducing early exits during inference. The computational demands of these models, used across a wide range of applications, can be substantial. By capitalizing on the inherent variability in token complexity, our approach enables selective acceleration of the inference process. Specifically, we propose the integration of early exit ''heads'' atop existing transformer layers, which facilitate conditional terminations based on a confidence metric. These heads are trained in a self-supervised manner using the model's own predictions as training data, thereby eliminating the need for additional annotated data. The confidence metric, established using a calibration set, ensures a desired level of accuracy while enabling early termination when confidence exceeds a predetermined threshold. Notably, our method preserves the original accuracy and reduces computational time on certain tasks, leveraging the existing knowledge of pre-trained LLMs without requiring extensive retraining. This lightweight, modular modification has the potential to greatly enhance the practical usability of LLMs, particularly in applications like real-time language processing in resource-constrained environments.

This paper analyses Conversational AI multi-agent interoperability frameworks and describes the novel architecture proposed by the Open Voice Interoperability initiative (Linux Foundation AI and DATA), also known briefly as OVON (Open Voice Network). The new approach is illustrated, along with the main components, delineating the key benefits and use cases for deploying standard multi-modal AI agency (or agentic AI) communications. Beginning with Universal APIs based on Natural Language, the framework establishes and enables interoperable interactions among diverse Conversational AI agents, including chatbots, voicebots, videobots, and human agents. Furthermore, a new Discovery specification framework is introduced, designed to efficiently look up agents providing specific services and to obtain accurate information about these services through a standard Manifest publication, accessible via an extended set of Natural Language-based APIs. The main purpose of this contribution is to significantly enhance the capabilities and scalability of AI interactions across various platforms. The novel architecture for interoperable Conversational AI assistants is designed to generalize, being replicable and accessible via open repositories.

This paper does not describe a novel method. Instead, it studies an essential foundation for reliable benchmarking and ultimately real-world application of AI-based image analysis: generating high-quality reference annotations. Previous research has focused on crowdsourcing as a means of outsourcing annotations. However, little attention has so far been given to annotation companies, specifically regarding their internal quality assurance (QA) processes. Therefore, our aim is to evaluate the influence of QA employed by annotation companies on annotation quality and devise methodologies for maximizing data annotation efficacy. Based on a total of 57,648 instance segmented images obtained from a total of 924 annotators and 34 QA workers from four annotation companies and Amazon Mechanical Turk (MTurk), we derived the following insights: (1) Annotation companies perform better both in terms of quantity and quality compared to the widely used platform MTurk. (2) Annotation companies' internal QA only provides marginal improvements, if any. However, improving labeling instructions instead of investing in QA can substantially boost annotation performance. (3) The benefit of internal QA depends on specific image characteristics. Our work could enable researchers to derive substantially more value from a fixed annotation budget and change the way annotation companies conduct internal QA.

This paper proposes a novel approach towards image authentication and tampering detection by using watermarking as a communication channel for semantic information. We modify the HiDDeN deep-learning watermarking architecture to embed and extract high-dimensional real vectors representing image captions. Our method improves significantly robustness on both malign and benign edits. We also introduce a local confidence metric correlated with Message Recovery Rate, enhancing the method's practical applicability. This approach bridges the gap between traditional watermarking and passive forensic methods, offering a robust solution for image integrity verification.

This paper introduces a novel zero-force control method for upper-limb exoskeleton robots, which are used in a variety of applications including rehabilitation, assistance, and human physical capability enhancement. The proposed control method employs an Adaptive Integral Terminal Sliding Mode (AITSM) controller, combined with an exponential reaching law and Proximal Policy Optimization (PPO), a type of Deep Reinforcement Learning (DRL). The PPO system incorporates an attention mechanism and Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) neural networks, enabling the controller to selectively focus on relevant system states, adapt to changing behavior, and capture long-term dependencies. This controller is designed to manage a 5-DOF upper-limb exoskeleton robot with zero force, even amidst system uncertainties. The controller uses an integral terminal sliding surface to ensure finite-time convergence to the desired state, a crucial feature for applications requiring quick responses. It also includes an exponential switching control term to reduce chattering and improve system accuracy. The controller's adaptability, facilitated by the PPO system, allows real-time parameter adjustments based on system feedback, making the controller robust and capable of dealing with uncertainties and disturbances that could affect the performance of the exoskeleton. The proposed control method's effectiveness and superiority are confirmed through numerical simulations and comparisons with existing control methods.

ERIT is a novel multimodal dataset designed to facilitate research in a lightweight multimodal fusion. It contains text and image data collected from videos of elderly individuals reacting to various situations, as well as seven emotion labels for each data sample. Because of the use of labeled images of elderly users reacting emotionally, it is also facilitating research on emotion recognition in an underrepresented age group in machine learning visual emotion recognition. The dataset is validated through comprehensive experiments indicating its importance in neural multimodal fusion research.

This paper provides a comprehensive overview of the uD3TN project's development, detailing its transformation into a flexible and modular software implementation of the Delay-/Disruption-Tolerant Networking (DTN) Bundle Protocol. Originating from uPCN, designed for microcontrollers, uD3TN has undergone significant architectural refinement to increase flexibility, compatibility, and performance across various DTN applications. Key developments include achieving platform independence, supporting multiple Bundle Protocol versions concurrently, introducing abstract Convergence Layer Adapter (CLA) interfaces, and developing the so called Application Agent Protocol (AAP) for interaction with the application layer. Additional enhancements, informed by field tests, include Bundle-in-Bundle Encapsulation and exploring a port to the Rust programming language, indicating the project's ongoing adaptation to practical needs. The paper also introduces the Generic Bundle Forwarding Interface and AAPv2, showcasing the latest innovations in the project. Moreover, it provides a comparison of uD3TN's architecture with the Interplanetary Overlay Network (ION) protocol stack, highlighting some general architectural principles at the foundation of DTN protocol implementations.

Link prediction is a very fundamental task on graphs. Inspired by traditional path-based methods, in this paper we propose a general and flexible representation learning framework based on paths for link prediction. Specifically, we define the representation of a pair of nodes as the generalized sum of all path representations, with each path representation as the generalized product of the edge representations in the path. Motivated by the Bellman-Ford algorithm for solving the shortest path problem, we show that the proposed path formulation can be efficiently solved by the generalized Bellman-Ford algorithm. To further improve the capacity of the path formulation, we propose the Neural Bellman-Ford Network (NBFNet), a general graph neural network framework that solves the path formulation with learned operators in the generalized Bellman-Ford algorithm. The NBFNet parameterizes the generalized Bellman-Ford algorithm with 3 neural components, namely INDICATOR, MESSAGE and AGGREGATE functions, which corresponds to the boundary condition, multiplication operator, and summation operator respectively. The NBFNet is very general, covers many traditional path-based methods, and can be applied to both homogeneous graphs and multi-relational graphs (e.g., knowledge graphs) in both transductive and inductive settings. Experiments on both homogeneous graphs and knowledge graphs show that the proposed NBFNet outperforms existing methods by a large margin in both transductive and inductive settings, achieving new state-of-the-art results.
