Discovering the underlying relationships among variables from temporal observations has been a longstanding challenge in numerous scientific disciplines, including biology, finance, and climate science. The dynamics of such systems are often best described using continuous-time stochastic processes. Unfortunately, most existing structure learning approaches assume that the underlying process evolves in discrete-time and/or observations occur at regular time intervals. These mismatched assumptions can often lead to incorrect learned structures and models. In this work, we introduce a novel structure learning method, SCOTCH, which combines neural stochastic differential equations (SDE) with variational inference to infer a posterior distribution over possible structures. This continuous-time approach can naturally handle both learning from and predicting observations at arbitrary time points. Theoretically, we establish sufficient conditions for an SDE and SCOTCH to be structurally identifiable, and prove its consistency under infinite data limits. Empirically, we demonstrate that our approach leads to improved structure learning performance on both synthetic and real-world datasets compared to relevant baselines under regular and irregular sampling intervals.

Deep learning has revolutionized various real-world applications, but the quality of Deep Neural Networks (DNNs) remains a concern. DNNs are complex and have millions of parameters, making it difficult to determine their contributions to fulfilling a task. Moreover, the behavior of a DNN is highly influenced by the data used during training, making it challenging to collect enough data to exercise all potential DNN behavior under all possible scenarios. This paper proposes NP SBFL method to locate faulty neural pathways (NP) using spectrum-based fault localization (SBFL). Our method identifies critical neurons using the layer-wise relevance propagation (LRP) technique and determines which critical neurons are faulty. Moreover, we propose a multi-stage gradient ascent (MGA), an extension of gradient ascent (GA), to effectively activate a sequence of neurons one at a time while maintaining the activation of previous neurons, so we are able to test the reported faulty pathways. We evaluated the effectiveness of our method, i.e. NP-SBFL-MGA, on two commonly used datasets, MNIST and CIFAR-10, two baselines DeepFault and NP-SBFL-GA, and three suspicious neuron measures, Tarantula, Ochiai, and Barinel. The empirical results showed that NP-SBFL-MGA is statistically more effective than the baselines at identifying suspicious paths and synthesizing adversarial inputs. Particularly, Tarantula on NP-SBFL-MGA had the highest fault detection rate at 96.75%, surpassing DeepFault on Ochiai (89.90%) and NP-SBFL-GA on Ochiai (60.61%). Our approach also yielded comparable results to the baselines in synthesizing naturalness inputs, and we found a positive correlation between the coverage of critical paths and the number of failed tests in DNN fault localization.

Cooperative utilization of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) in public and military surveillance applications has attracted significant attention in recent years. Most UAVs are equipped with sensors that have bounded coverage and wireless communication equipment with limited range. Such limitations pose challenging problems to monitor mobile targets. This paper examines fulfilling surveillance objectives to achieve better coverage while building a resilient network between UAVs with an extended lifetime. The multiple target tracking problem is studied by including a relay UAV within the fleet whose trajectory is autonomously calculated in order to achieve a reliable connected network among all UAVs. Optimization problems are formulated for single-hop and multi-hop communications among UAVs. Three heuristic algorithms are proposed for multi-hop communications and their performances are evaluated. A hybrid algorithm, which dynamically switches between single-hop and multi-hop communications is also proposed. The effect of the time horizon considered in the optimization problem is studied. Performance evaluation results show that the trajectories generated for the relay UAV by the hybrid algorithm can achieve network lifetimes that are within 5% of the maximum possible network lifetime which can be obtained if the entire trajectories of all targets were known a priori.

This paper considers the problems of detecting a change point and estimating the location in the correlation matrices of a sequence of high-dimensional vectors, where the dimension is large enough to be comparable to the sample size or even much larger. A new break test is proposed based on signflip parallel analysis to detect the existence of change points. Furthermore, a two-step approach combining a signflip permutation dimension reduction step and a CUSUM statistic is proposed to estimate the change point's location and recover the support of changes. The consistency of the estimator is constructed. Simulation examples and real data applications illustrate the superior empirical performance of the proposed methods. Especially, the proposed methods outperform existing ones for non-Gaussian data and the change point in the extreme tail of a sequence and become more accurate as the dimension p increases. Supplementary materials for this article are available online.

Discovering achievements with a hierarchical structure in procedurally generated environments presents a significant challenge. This requires an agent to possess a broad range of abilities, including generalization and long-term reasoning. Many prior methods have been built upon model-based or hierarchical approaches, with the belief that an explicit module for long-term planning would be advantageous for learning hierarchical dependencies. However, these methods demand an excessive number of environment interactions or large model sizes, limiting their practicality. In this work, we demonstrate that proximal policy optimization (PPO), a simple yet versatile model-free algorithm, outperforms previous methods when optimized with recent implementation practices. Moreover, we find that the PPO agent can predict the next achievement to be unlocked to some extent, albeit with limited confidence. Based on this observation, we introduce a novel contrastive learning method, called achievement distillation, which strengthens the agent's ability to predict the next achievement. Our method exhibits a strong capacity for discovering hierarchical achievements and shows state-of-the-art performance on the challenging Crafter environment in a sample-efficient manner while utilizing fewer model parameters.

A recent development in Bayesian optimization is the use of local optimization strategies, which can deliver strong empirical performance on high-dimensional problems compared to traditional global strategies. The "folk wisdom" in the literature is that the focus on local optimization sidesteps the curse of dimensionality; however, little is known concretely about the expected behavior or convergence of Bayesian local optimization routines. We first study the behavior of the local approach, and find that the statistics of individual local solutions of Gaussian process sample paths are surprisingly good compared to what we would expect to recover from global methods. We then present the first rigorous analysis of such a Bayesian local optimization algorithm recently proposed by M\"uller et al. (2021), and derive convergence rates in both the noisy and noiseless settings.

Face recognition technology has advanced significantly in recent years due largely to the availability of large and increasingly complex training datasets for use in deep learning models. These datasets, however, typically comprise images scraped from news sites or social media platforms and, therefore, have limited utility in more advanced security, forensics, and military applications. These applications require lower resolution, longer ranges, and elevated viewpoints. To meet these critical needs, we collected and curated the first and second subsets of a large multi-modal biometric dataset designed for use in the research and development (R&D) of biometric recognition technologies under extremely challenging conditions. Thus far, the dataset includes more than 350,000 still images and over 1,300 hours of video footage of approximately 1,000 subjects. To collect this data, we used Nikon DSLR cameras, a variety of commercial surveillance cameras, specialized long-rage R&D cameras, and Group 1 and Group 2 UAV platforms. The goal is to support the development of algorithms capable of accurately recognizing people at ranges up to 1,000 m and from high angles of elevation. These advances will include improvements to the state of the art in face recognition and will support new research in the area of whole-body recognition using methods based on gait and anthropometry. This paper describes methods used to collect and curate the dataset, and the dataset's characteristics at the current stage.

Graph neural networks (GNNs) is widely used to learn a powerful representation of graph-structured data. Recent work demonstrates that transferring knowledge from self-supervised tasks to downstream tasks could further improve graph representation. However, there is an inherent gap between self-supervised tasks and downstream tasks in terms of optimization objective and training data. Conventional pre-training methods may be not effective enough on knowledge transfer since they do not make any adaptation for downstream tasks. To solve such problems, we propose a new transfer learning paradigm on GNNs which could effectively leverage self-supervised tasks as auxiliary tasks to help the target task. Our methods would adaptively select and combine different auxiliary tasks with the target task in the fine-tuning stage. We design an adaptive auxiliary loss weighting model to learn the weights of auxiliary tasks by quantifying the consistency between auxiliary tasks and the target task. In addition, we learn the weighting model through meta-learning. Our methods can be applied to various transfer learning approaches, it performs well not only in multi-task learning but also in pre-training and fine-tuning. Comprehensive experiments on multiple downstream tasks demonstrate that the proposed methods can effectively combine auxiliary tasks with the target task and significantly improve the performance compared to state-of-the-art methods.

Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) have recently become increasingly popular due to their ability to learn complex systems of relations or interactions arising in a broad spectrum of problems ranging from biology and particle physics to social networks and recommendation systems. Despite the plethora of different models for deep learning on graphs, few approaches have been proposed thus far for dealing with graphs that present some sort of dynamic nature (e.g. evolving features or connectivity over time). In this paper, we present Temporal Graph Networks (TGNs), a generic, efficient framework for deep learning on dynamic graphs represented as sequences of timed events. Thanks to a novel combination of memory modules and graph-based operators, TGNs are able to significantly outperform previous approaches being at the same time more computationally efficient. We furthermore show that several previous models for learning on dynamic graphs can be cast as specific instances of our framework. We perform a detailed ablation study of different components of our framework and devise the best configuration that achieves state-of-the-art performance on several transductive and inductive prediction tasks for dynamic graphs.

Deep neural networks (DNNs) have been found to be vulnerable to adversarial examples resulting from adding small-magnitude perturbations to inputs. Such adversarial examples can mislead DNNs to produce adversary-selected results. Different attack strategies have been proposed to generate adversarial examples, but how to produce them with high perceptual quality and more efficiently requires more research efforts. In this paper, we propose AdvGAN to generate adversarial examples with generative adversarial networks (GANs), which can learn and approximate the distribution of original instances. For AdvGAN, once the generator is trained, it can generate adversarial perturbations efficiently for any instance, so as to potentially accelerate adversarial training as defenses. We apply AdvGAN in both semi-whitebox and black-box attack settings. In semi-whitebox attacks, there is no need to access the original target model after the generator is trained, in contrast to traditional white-box attacks. In black-box attacks, we dynamically train a distilled model for the black-box model and optimize the generator accordingly. Adversarial examples generated by AdvGAN on different target models have high attack success rate under state-of-the-art defenses compared to other attacks. Our attack has placed the first with 92.76% accuracy on a public MNIST black-box attack challenge.
