We tackle classification based on brain connectivity derived from diffusion magnetic resonance images. We propose a machine-learning model inspired by graph convolutional networks (GCNs), which takes a brain connectivity input graph and processes the data separately through a parallel GCN mechanism with multiple heads. The proposed network is a simple design that employs different heads involving graph convolutions focused on edges and nodes, capturing representations from the input data thoroughly. To test the ability of our model to extract complementary and representative features from brain connectivity data, we chose the task of sex classification. This quantifies the degree to which the connectome varies depending on the sex, which is important for improving our understanding of health and disease in both sexes. We show experiments on two publicly available datasets: PREVENT-AD (347 subjects) and OASIS3 (771 subjects). The proposed model demonstrates the highest performance compared to the existing machine-learning algorithms we tested, including classical methods and (graph and non-graph) deep learning. We provide a detailed analysis of each component of our model.

Analog computing has reemerged as a promising avenue for accelerating deep neural networks (DNNs) due to its potential to overcome the energy efficiency and scalability challenges posed by traditional digital architectures. However, achieving high precision and DNN accuracy using such technologies is challenging, as high-precision data converters are costly and impractical. In this paper, we address this challenge by using the residue number system (RNS). RNS allows composing high-precision operations from multiple low-precision operations, thereby eliminating the information loss caused by the limited precision of the data converters. Our study demonstrates that analog accelerators utilizing the RNS-based approach can achieve ${\geq}99\%$ of FP32 accuracy for state-of-the-art DNN inference using data converters with only $6$-bit precision whereas a conventional analog core requires more than $8$-bit precision to achieve the same accuracy in the same DNNs. The reduced precision requirements imply that using RNS can reduce the energy consumption of analog accelerators by several orders of magnitude while maintaining the same throughput and precision. Our study extends this approach to DNN training, where we can efficiently train DNNs using $7$-bit integer arithmetic while achieving accuracy comparable to FP32 precision. Lastly, we present a fault-tolerant dataflow using redundant RNS error-correcting codes to protect the computation against noise and errors inherent within an analog accelerator.

We introduce RotateIt, a system that enables fingertip-based object rotation along multiple axes by leveraging multimodal sensory inputs. Our system is trained in simulation, where it has access to ground-truth object shapes and physical properties. Then we distill it to operate on realistic yet noisy simulated visuotactile and proprioceptive sensory inputs. These multimodal inputs are fused via a visuotactile transformer, enabling online inference of object shapes and physical properties during deployment. We show significant performance improvements over prior methods and the importance of visual and tactile sensing.

Detecting and grounding multi-modal media manipulation (DGM^4) has become increasingly crucial due to the widespread dissemination of face forgery and text misinformation. In this paper, we present the Unified Frequency-Assisted transFormer framework, named UFAFormer, to address the DGM^4 problem. Unlike previous state-of-the-art methods that solely focus on the image (RGB) domain to describe visual forgery features, we additionally introduce the frequency domain as a complementary viewpoint. By leveraging the discrete wavelet transform, we decompose images into several frequency sub-bands, capturing rich face forgery artifacts. Then, our proposed frequency encoder, incorporating intra-band and inter-band self-attentions, explicitly aggregates forgery features within and across diverse sub-bands. Moreover, to address the semantic conflicts between image and frequency domains, the forgery-aware mutual module is developed to further enable the effective interaction of disparate image and frequency features, resulting in aligned and comprehensive visual forgery representations. Finally, based on visual and textual forgery features, we propose a unified decoder that comprises two symmetric cross-modal interaction modules responsible for gathering modality-specific forgery information, along with a fusing interaction module for aggregation of both modalities. The proposed unified decoder formulates our UFAFormer as a unified framework, ultimately simplifying the overall architecture and facilitating the optimization process. Experimental results on the DGM^4 dataset, containing several perturbations, demonstrate the superior performance of our framework compared to previous methods, setting a new benchmark in the field.

Ultra-massive multiple-input multiple-output (UM-MIMO) is a cutting-edge technology that promises to revolutionize wireless networks by providing an unprecedentedly high spectral and energy efficiency. The enlarged array aperture of UM-MIMO facilitates the accessibility of the near-field region, thereby offering a novel degree of freedom for communications and sensing. Nevertheless, the transceiver design for such systems is challenging because of the enormous system scale, the complicated channel characteristics, and the uncertainties in propagation environments. Therefore, it is critical to study scalable, low-complexity, and robust algorithms that can efficiently characterize and leverage the properties of the near-field channel. In this article, we will advocate two general frameworks from an artificial intelligence (AI)-native perspective, which are tailored for the algorithmic design of near-field UM-MIMO transceivers. Specifically, the frameworks for both iterative and non-iterative algorithms are discussed. Near-field beam focusing and channel estimation are presented as two tutorial-style examples to demonstrate the significant advantages of the proposed AI-native frameworks in terms of various key performance indicators.

Distributed Antenna Systems (DASs) employ multiple antenna arrays in remote radio units to achieve highly directional transmission and provide great coverage performance for future-generation networks. However, the utilization of active antenna arrays results in a significant increase in hardware costs and power consumption for DAS. To address these issues, integrating DAS with Reconfigurable Intelligent Surfaces (RIS) offers a viable approach to ensure transmission performance while maintaining low hardware costs and power consumption. To incorporate the merits of RIS into the DAS from practical consideration, a novel architecture of ``Reconfigurable Distributed Antennas and Reflecting Surfaces (RDARS)'' is proposed in this paper. Specifically, based on the design of the additional direct-through state together with the existing high-quality fronthaul link, any element of the RDARS can be dynamically programmed to connect with the base station (BS) via fibers and perform the connected mode as remote distributed antennas of the BS to receive or transmit signals. Additionally, RDARS also inherits the low-cost and low-energy-consumption benefits of fully passive RISs by default configuring the elements as passive to perform the reflection mode. As a result, RDARS offers flexible control over the trade-off between distribution gain and reflection gain to enhance performance. The ergodic achievable rate under the RDARS architecture is analyzed and closed-form expression with meaningful insights is derived. The theoretical analysis and simulation results prove that the RDARS achieves a higher achievable rate than both DAS and RIS. A RDARS prototype with 256 elements is built for real experiments which shows that the RDARS-aided system can achieve an additional 21% and 170% throughput improvement over DAS and RIS-aided systems, respectively.

Due to the imbalanced nature of networked observational data, the causal effect predictions for some individuals can severely violate the positivity/overlap assumption, rendering unreliable estimations. Nevertheless, this potential risk of individual-level treatment effect estimation on networked data has been largely under-explored. To create a more trustworthy causal effect estimator, we propose the uncertainty-aware graph deep kernel learning (GraphDKL) framework with Lipschitz constraint to model the prediction uncertainty with Gaussian process and identify unreliable estimations. To the best of our knowledge, GraphDKL is the first framework to tackle the violation of positivity assumption when performing causal effect estimation with graphs. With extensive experiments, we demonstrate the superiority of our proposed method in uncertainty-aware causal effect estimation on networked data.

The goal of Feature Selection - comprising filter, wrapper, and embedded approaches - is to find the optimal feature subset for designated downstream tasks. Nevertheless, current feature selection methods are limited by: 1) the selection criteria of these methods are varied for different domains, making them hard to generalize; 2) the selection performance of these approaches drops significantly when processing high-dimensional feature space coupled with small sample size. In light of these challenges, we pose the question: can selected feature subsets be more robust, accurate, and input dimensionality agnostic? In this paper, we reformulate the feature selection problem as a deep differentiable optimization task and propose a new research perspective: conceptualizing discrete feature subsetting as continuous embedding space optimization. We introduce a novel and principled framework that encompasses a sequential encoder, an accuracy evaluator, a sequential decoder, and a gradient ascent optimizer. This comprehensive framework includes four important steps: preparation of features-accuracy training data, deep feature subset embedding, gradient-optimized search, and feature subset reconstruction. Specifically, we utilize reinforcement feature selection learning to generate diverse and high-quality training data and enhance generalization. By optimizing reconstruction and accuracy losses, we embed feature selection knowledge into a continuous space using an encoder-evaluator-decoder model structure. We employ a gradient ascent search algorithm to find better embeddings in the learned embedding space. Furthermore, we reconstruct feature selection solutions using these embeddings and select the feature subset with the highest performance for downstream tasks as the optimal subset.

Graph Convolutional Networks (GCNs) have been widely applied in various fields due to their significant power on processing graph-structured data. Typical GCN and its variants work under a homophily assumption (i.e., nodes with same class are prone to connect to each other), while ignoring the heterophily which exists in many real-world networks (i.e., nodes with different classes tend to form edges). Existing methods deal with heterophily by mainly aggregating higher-order neighborhoods or combing the immediate representations, which leads to noise and irrelevant information in the result. But these methods did not change the propagation mechanism which works under homophily assumption (that is a fundamental part of GCNs). This makes it difficult to distinguish the representation of nodes from different classes. To address this problem, in this paper we design a novel propagation mechanism, which can automatically change the propagation and aggregation process according to homophily or heterophily between node pairs. To adaptively learn the propagation process, we introduce two measurements of homophily degree between node pairs, which is learned based on topological and attribute information, respectively. Then we incorporate the learnable homophily degree into the graph convolution framework, which is trained in an end-to-end schema, enabling it to go beyond the assumption of homophily. More importantly, we theoretically prove that our model can constrain the similarity of representations between nodes according to their homophily degree. Experiments on seven real-world datasets demonstrate that this new approach outperforms the state-of-the-art methods under heterophily or low homophily, and gains competitive performance under homophily.

Multi-agent influence diagrams (MAIDs) are a popular form of graphical model that, for certain classes of games, have been shown to offer key complexity and explainability advantages over traditional extensive form game (EFG) representations. In this paper, we extend previous work on MAIDs by introducing the concept of a MAID subgame, as well as subgame perfect and trembling hand perfect equilibrium refinements. We then prove several equivalence results between MAIDs and EFGs. Finally, we describe an open source implementation for reasoning about MAIDs and computing their equilibria.
