Numerical models have long been used to understand geoscientific phenomena, including tidal currents, crucial for renewable energy production and coastal engineering. However, their computational cost hinders generating data of varying resolutions. As an alternative, deep learning-based downscaling methods have gained traction due to their faster inference speeds. But most of them are limited to only inference fixed scale and overlook important characteristics of target geoscientific data. In this paper, we propose a novel downscaling framework for tidal current data, addressing its unique characteristics, which are dissimilar to images: heterogeneity and local dependency. Moreover, our framework can generate any arbitrary-scale output utilizing a continuous representation model. Our proposed framework demonstrates significantly improved flow velocity predictions by 93.21% (MSE) and 63.85% (MAE) compared to the Baseline model while achieving a remarkable 33.2% reduction in FLOPs.

In this paper, we propose an advancement to Tarskian model-theoretic semantics, leading to a unified quantitative theory of semantic information and communication. We start with description of inductive logic and probabilities, which serve as notable tools in development of the proposed theory. Then, we identify two disparate kinds of uncertainty in semantic communication, that of physical and content, present refined interpretations of semantic information measures, and conclude with proposing a new measure for semantic content-information and entropy. Our proposition standardizes semantic information across different universes and systems, hence bringing measurability and comparability into semantic communication. We then proceed with introducing conditional and mutual semantic cont-information measures and point out to their utility in formulating practical and optimizable lossless and lossy semantic compression objectives. Finally, we experimentally demonstrate the value of our theoretical propositions.

Sequential neural posterior estimation (SNPE) techniques have been recently proposed for dealing with simulation-based models with intractable likelihoods. They are devoted to learning the posterior from adaptively proposed simulations using neural network-based conditional density estimators. As a SNPE technique, the automatic posterior transformation (APT) method proposed by Greenberg et al. (2019) performs notably and scales to high dimensional data. However, the APT method bears the computation of an expectation of the logarithm of an intractable normalizing constant, i.e., a nested expectation. Although atomic APT was proposed to solve this by discretizing the normalizing constant, it remains challenging to analyze the convergence of learning. In this paper, we propose a nested APT method to estimate the involved nested expectation instead. This facilitates establishing the convergence analysis. Since the nested estimators for the loss function and its gradient are biased, we make use of unbiased multi-level Monte Carlo (MLMC) estimators for debiasing. To further reduce the excessive variance of the unbiased estimators, this paper also develops some truncated MLMC estimators by taking account of the trade-off between the bias and the average cost. Numerical experiments for approximating complex posteriors with multimodal in moderate dimensions are provided.

In this work we introduce a manifold learning-based surrogate modeling framework for uncertainty quantification in high-dimensional stochastic systems. Our first goal is to perform data mining on the available simulation data to identify a set of low-dimensional (latent) descriptors that efficiently parameterize the response of the high-dimensional computational model. To this end, we employ Principal Geodesic Analysis on the Grassmann manifold of the response to identify a set of disjoint principal geodesic submanifolds, of possibly different dimension, that captures the variation in the data. Since operations on the Grassmann require the data to be concentrated, we propose an adaptive algorithm based on Riemanniann K-means and the minimization of the sample Frechet variance on the Grassmann manifold to identify "local" principal geodesic submanifolds that represent different system behavior across the parameter space. Polynomial chaos expansion is then used to construct a mapping between the random input parameters and the projection of the response on these local principal geodesic submanifolds. The method is demonstrated on four test cases, a toy-example that involves points on a hypersphere, a Lotka-Volterra dynamical system, a continuous-flow stirred-tank chemical reactor system, and a two-dimensional Rayleigh-Benard convection problem

In this paper, we consider multi-robot localization problems with focus on cooperative localization and observability analysis of relative pose estimation. For cooperative localization, there is extra information available to each robot via communication network and message passing. If odometry data of a target robot can be transmitted to the ego-robot then the observability of their relative pose estimation can be achieved by range-only or bearing-only measurements provided both of their linear velocities are non-zero. If odometry data of a target robot is not directly transmitted but estimated by the ego-robot then there must be both range and bearing measurements to guarantee the observability of relative pose estimation. For ROS/Gazebo simulations, we consider four different sensing and communication structures in which extended Kalman filtering (EKF) and pose graph optimization (PGO) estimation with different robust loss functions (filtering and smoothing with different batch sizes of sliding window) are compared in terms of estimation accuracy. For hardware experiments, two Turtlebot3 equipped with UWB modules are used for real-world inter-robot relative pose estimation, in which both EKF and PGO are applied and compared.

In this paper, we focus on the design of binary constant-weight codes that admit low-complexity encoding and decoding algorithms, and that have size as a power of $2$. We construct a family of $(n=2^\ell, M=2^k, d=2)$ constant-weight codes ${\cal C}[\ell, r]$ parameterized by integers $\ell \geq 3$ and $1 \leq r \leq \lfloor \frac{\ell+3}{4} \rfloor$, by encoding information in the gaps between successive $1$'s of a vector. The code has weight $w = \ell$ and combinatorial dimension $k$ that scales quadratically with $\ell$. The encoding time is linear in the input size $k$, and the decoding time is poly-logarithmic in the input size $n$, discounting the linear time spent on parsing the input. Encoding and decoding algorithms of similar codes known in either information-theoretic or combinatorial literature require computation of large number of binomial coefficients. Our algorithms fully eliminate the need to evaluate binomial coefficients. While the code has a natural price to pay in $k$, it performs fairly well against the information-theoretic upper bound $\lfloor \log_2 {n \choose w} \rfloor$. When $\ell =3$, the code is optimal achieving the upper bound; when $\ell=4$, it is one bit away from the upper bound, and as $\ell$ grows it is order-optimal in the sense that the ratio of $k$ with its upper bound becomes a constant $\frac{11}{16}$ when $r=\lfloor \frac{\ell+3}{4} \rfloor$. With the same or even lower complexity, we derive new codes permitting a wider range of parameters by modifying ${\cal C}[\ell, r]$ in two different ways. The code derived using the first approach has the same blocklength $n=2^\ell$, but weight $w$ is allowed to vary from $\ell-1$ to $1$. In the second approach, the weight remains fixed as $w = \ell$, but the blocklength is reduced to $n=2^\ell - 2^r +1$. For certain selected values of parameters, these modified codes have an optimal $k$.

Motivated by problems arising in digital advertising, we introduce the task of training differentially private (DP) machine learning models with semi-sensitive features. In this setting, a subset of the features is known to the attacker (and thus need not be protected) while the remaining features as well as the label are unknown to the attacker and should be protected by the DP guarantee. This task interpolates between training the model with full DP (where the label and all features should be protected) or with label DP (where all the features are considered known, and only the label should be protected). We present a new algorithm for training DP models with semi-sensitive features. Through an empirical evaluation on real ads datasets, we demonstrate that our algorithm surpasses in utility the baselines of (i) DP stochastic gradient descent (DP-SGD) run on all features (known and unknown), and (ii) a label DP algorithm run only on the known features (while discarding the unknown ones).

Sampling methods (e.g., node-wise, layer-wise, or subgraph) has become an indispensable strategy to speed up training large-scale Graph Neural Networks (GNNs). However, existing sampling methods are mostly based on the graph structural information and ignore the dynamicity of optimization, which leads to high variance in estimating the stochastic gradients. The high variance issue can be very pronounced in extremely large graphs, where it results in slow convergence and poor generalization. In this paper, we theoretically analyze the variance of sampling methods and show that, due to the composite structure of empirical risk, the variance of any sampling method can be decomposed into \textit{embedding approximation variance} in the forward stage and \textit{stochastic gradient variance} in the backward stage that necessities mitigating both types of variance to obtain faster convergence rate. We propose a decoupled variance reduction strategy that employs (approximate) gradient information to adaptively sample nodes with minimal variance, and explicitly reduces the variance introduced by embedding approximation. We show theoretically and empirically that the proposed method, even with smaller mini-batch sizes, enjoys a faster convergence rate and entails a better generalization compared to the existing methods.

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.

In this paper, we propose the joint learning attention and recurrent neural network (RNN) models for multi-label classification. While approaches based on the use of either model exist (e.g., for the task of image captioning), training such existing network architectures typically require pre-defined label sequences. For multi-label classification, it would be desirable to have a robust inference process, so that the prediction error would not propagate and thus affect the performance. Our proposed model uniquely integrates attention and Long Short Term Memory (LSTM) models, which not only addresses the above problem but also allows one to identify visual objects of interests with varying sizes without the prior knowledge of particular label ordering. More importantly, label co-occurrence information can be jointly exploited by our LSTM model. Finally, by advancing the technique of beam search, prediction of multiple labels can be efficiently achieved by our proposed network model.
