Visualization of extremely large datasets in static or dynamic form is a huge challenge because most traditional methods cannot deal with big data problems. A new visualization method for big data is proposed based on Projection Pursuit, Guided Tour and Data Nuggets methods, that will help display interesting hidden structures such as clusters, outliers, and other nonlinear structures in big data. The Guided Tour is a dynamic graphical tool for high-dimensional data combining Projection Pursuit and Grand Tour methods. It displays a dynamic sequence of low-dimensional projections obtained by using Projection Pursuit (PP) index functions to navigate the data space. Different PP indices have been developed to detect interesting structures of multivariate data but there are computational problems for big data using the original guided tour with these indices. A new PP index is developed to be computable for big data, with the help of a data compression method called Data Nuggets that reduces large datasets while maintaining the original data structure. Simulation studies are conducted and a real large dataset is used to illustrate the proposed methodology. Static and dynamic graphical tools for big data can be developed based on the proposed PP index to detect nonlinear structures.

We present a general framework for preconditioning Hermitian positive definite linear systems based on the Bregman log determinant divergence. This divergence provides a measure of discrepancy between a preconditioner and a target matrix. Given an approximate factorisation of a target matrix, the proposed framework tells us how to construct a low-rank approximation of the typically indefinite factorisation error. The resulting preconditioner is therefore a sum of a Hermitian positive definite matrix given by an approximate factorisation plus a low-rank matrix. Notably, the low-rank term is not generally obtained as a truncated singular value decomposition. This framework leads to a new truncation where principal directions are not based on the magnitude of the singular values. We describe a procedure for determining these \emph{Bregman directions} and prove that preconditioners constructed in this way are minimisers of the aforementioned divergence. Finally, we demonstrate using several numerical examples how the proposed preconditioner performs in terms of convergence of the preconditioned conjugate gradient method (PCG). For the examples we consider, an incomplete Cholesky preconditioner can be greatly improved in this way, and in some cases only a modest low-rank compensation term is required to obtain a considerable improvement in convergence. We also consider matrices arising from interior point methods for linear programming that do not admit such an incomplete factorisation by default, and present a robust incomplete Cholesky preconditioner based on the proposed methodology. The results highlight that the choice of truncation is critical for ill-conditioned matrices. We show numerous examples where PCG converges to a small tolerance by using the proposed preconditioner, whereas PCG with a SVD-based preconditioner fails to do so.

Human-centric computer vision (HCCV) data curation practices often neglect privacy and bias concerns, leading to dataset retractions and unfair models. HCCV datasets constructed through nonconsensual web scraping lack crucial metadata for comprehensive fairness and robustness evaluations. Current remedies are post hoc, lack persuasive justification for adoption, or fail to provide proper contextualization for appropriate application. Our research focuses on proactive, domain-specific recommendations, covering purpose, privacy and consent, and diversity, for curating HCCV evaluation datasets, addressing privacy and bias concerns. We adopt an ante hoc reflective perspective, drawing from current practices, guidelines, dataset withdrawals, and audits, to inform our considerations and recommendations.

This paper proposes a fully scalable multi-agent reinforcement learning (MARL) approach for packet scheduling in conflict graphs, aiming to minimizing average packet delays. Each agent autonomously manages the schedule of a single link over one or multiple sub-bands, considering its own state and states of conflicting links. The problem can be conceptualized as a decentralized partially observable Markov decision process (Dec-POMDP). The proposed solution leverages an on-policy reinforcement learning algorithms multi-agent proximal policy optimization (MAPPO) within a multi-agent networked system, incorporating advanced recurrent structures in the neural network. The MARL design allows for fully decentralized training and execution, seamlessly scaling to very large networks. Extensive simulations across a diverse range of conflict graphs demonstrate that the proposed solution compares favorably to well-established schedulers in terms of both throughput and delay under various traffic conditions.

We propose a conditional stochastic interpolation (CSI) approach to learning conditional distributions. CSI learns probability flow equations or stochastic differential equations that transport a reference distribution to the target conditional distribution. This is achieved by first learning the drift function and the conditional score function based on conditional stochastic interpolation, which are then used to construct a deterministic process governed by an ordinary differential equation or a diffusion process for conditional sampling. In our proposed CSI model, we incorporate an adaptive diffusion term to address the instability issues arising during the training process. We provide explicit forms of the conditional score function and the drift function in terms of conditional expectations under mild conditions, which naturally lead to an nonparametric regression approach to estimating these functions. Furthermore, we establish non-asymptotic error bounds for learning the target conditional distribution via conditional stochastic interpolation in terms of KL divergence, taking into account the neural network approximation error. We illustrate the application of CSI on image generation using a benchmark image dataset.

Recent contrastive representation learning methods rely on estimating mutual information (MI) between multiple views of an underlying context. E.g., we can derive multiple views of a given image by applying data augmentation, or we can split a sequence into views comprising the past and future of some step in the sequence. Contrastive lower bounds on MI are easy to optimize, but have a strong underestimation bias when estimating large amounts of MI. We propose decomposing the full MI estimation problem into a sum of smaller estimation problems by splitting one of the views into progressively more informed subviews and by applying the chain rule on MI between the decomposed views. This expression contains a sum of unconditional and conditional MI terms, each measuring modest chunks of the total MI, which facilitates approximation via contrastive bounds. To maximize the sum, we formulate a contrastive lower bound on the conditional MI which can be approximated efficiently. We refer to our general approach as Decomposed Estimation of Mutual Information (DEMI). We show that DEMI can capture a larger amount of MI than standard non-decomposed contrastive bounds in a synthetic setting, and learns better representations in a vision domain and for dialogue generation.

Benefit from the quick development of deep learning techniques, salient object detection has achieved remarkable progresses recently. However, there still exists following two major challenges that hinder its application in embedded devices, low resolution output and heavy model weight. To this end, this paper presents an accurate yet compact deep network for efficient salient object detection. More specifically, given a coarse saliency prediction in the deepest layer, we first employ residual learning to learn side-output residual features for saliency refinement, which can be achieved with very limited convolutional parameters while keep accuracy. Secondly, we further propose reverse attention to guide such side-output residual learning in a top-down manner. By erasing the current predicted salient regions from side-output features, the network can eventually explore the missing object parts and details which results in high resolution and accuracy. Experiments on six benchmark datasets demonstrate that the proposed approach compares favorably against state-of-the-art methods, and with advantages in terms of simplicity, efficiency (45 FPS) and model size (81 MB).

Providing model-generated explanations in recommender systems is important to user experience. State-of-the-art recommendation algorithms -- especially the collaborative filtering (CF) based approaches with shallow or deep models -- usually work with various unstructured information sources for recommendation, such as textual reviews, visual images, and various implicit or explicit feedbacks. Though structured knowledge bases were considered in content-based approaches, they have been largely ignored recently due to the availability of vast amount of data and the learning power of many complex models. However, structured knowledge bases exhibit unique advantages in personalized recommendation systems. When the explicit knowledge about users and items is considered for recommendation, the system could provide highly customized recommendations based on users' historical behaviors and the knowledge is helpful for providing informed explanations regarding the recommended items. In this work, we propose to reason over knowledge base embeddings for explainable recommendation. Specifically, we propose a knowledge base representation learning framework to embed heterogeneous entities for recommendation, and based on the embedded knowledge base, a soft matching algorithm is proposed to generate personalized explanations for the recommended items. Experimental results on real-world e-commerce datasets verified the superior recommendation performance and the explainability power of our approach compared with state-of-the-art baselines.

Traditional methods for link prediction can be categorized into three main types: graph structure feature-based, latent feature-based, and explicit feature-based. Graph structure feature methods leverage some handcrafted node proximity scores, e.g., common neighbors, to estimate the likelihood of links. Latent feature methods rely on factorizing networks' matrix representations to learn an embedding for each node. Explicit feature methods train a machine learning model on two nodes' explicit attributes. Each of the three types of methods has its unique merits. In this paper, we propose SEAL (learning from Subgraphs, Embeddings, and Attributes for Link prediction), a new framework for link prediction which combines the power of all the three types into a single graph neural network (GNN). GNN is a new type of neural network which directly accepts graphs as input and outputs their labels. In SEAL, the input to the GNN is a local subgraph around each target link. We prove theoretically that our local subgraphs also reserve a great deal of high-order graph structure features related to link existence. Another key feature is that our GNN can naturally incorporate latent features and explicit features. It is achieved by concatenating node embeddings (latent features) and node attributes (explicit features) in the node information matrix for each subgraph, thus combining the three types of features to enhance GNN learning. Through extensive experiments, SEAL shows unprecedentedly strong performance against a wide range of baseline methods, including various link prediction heuristics and network embedding methods.

High spectral dimensionality and the shortage of annotations make hyperspectral image (HSI) classification a challenging problem. Recent studies suggest that convolutional neural networks can learn discriminative spatial features, which play a paramount role in HSI interpretation. However, most of these methods ignore the distinctive spectral-spatial characteristic of hyperspectral data. In addition, a large amount of unlabeled data remains an unexploited gold mine for efficient data use. Therefore, we proposed an integration of generative adversarial networks (GANs) and probabilistic graphical models for HSI classification. Specifically, we used a spectral-spatial generator and a discriminator to identify land cover categories of hyperspectral cubes. Moreover, to take advantage of a large amount of unlabeled data, we adopted a conditional random field to refine the preliminary classification results generated by GANs. Experimental results obtained using two commonly studied datasets demonstrate that the proposed framework achieved encouraging classification accuracy using a small number of data for training.
