Missing data is frequently encountered in practice. Propensity score estimation is a popular tool for handling such missingness. The propensity score is often developed using a model for the response probability, which can be subject to model misspecification. In this paper, we consider an alternative approach of estimating the inverse of the propensity scores using the density ratio function. The smoothed density ratio function is obtained by the solution to the information projection onto the space satisfying the moment conditions on the balancing scores. By including the covariates for the outcome regression models only into the density ratio model, we can achieve efficient propensity score estimation. Penalized regression is used to identify important covariates. We further extend the proposed approach to the multivariate missing case. Some limited simulation studies are presented to compare with the existing methods.

Information leakage is becoming a critical problem as various information becomes publicly available by mistake, and machine learning models train on that data to provide services. As a result, one's private information could easily be memorized by such trained models. Unfortunately, deleting information is out of the question as the data is already exposed to the Web or third-party platforms. Moreover, we cannot necessarily control the labeling process and the model trainings by other parties either. In this setting, we study the problem of targeted disinformation where the goal is to lower the accuracy of inference attacks on a specific target (e.g., a person's profile) only using data insertion. While our problem is related to data privacy and defenses against exploratory attacks, our techniques are inspired by targeted data poisoning attacks with some key differences. We show that our problem is best solved by finding the closest points to the target in the input space that will be labeled as a different class. Since we do not control the labeling process, we instead conservatively estimate the labels probabilistically by combining decision boundaries of multiple classifiers using data programming techniques. We also propose techniques for making the disinformation realistic. Our experiments show that a probabilistic decision boundary can be a good proxy for labelers, and that our approach outperforms other targeted poisoning methods when using end-to-end training on real datasets.

Recently, Deep Neural Networks (DNNs) have recorded great success in handling medical and other complex classification tasks. However, as the sizes of a DNN model and the available dataset increase, the training process becomes more complex and computationally intensive, which usually takes a longer time to complete. In this work, we have proposed a generic full end-to-end hybrid parallelization approach combining both model and data parallelism for efficiently distributed and scalable training of DNN models. We have also proposed a Genetic Algorithm based heuristic resources allocation mechanism (GABRA) for optimal distribution of partitions on the available GPUs for computing performance optimization. We have applied our proposed approach to a real use case based on 3D Residual Attention Deep Neural Network (3D-ResAttNet) for efficient Alzheimer Disease (AD) diagnosis on multiple GPUs. The experimental evaluation shows that the proposed approach is efficient and scalable, which achieves almost linear speedup with little or no differences in accuracy performance when compared with the existing non-parallel DNN models.

Beam management (BM), i.e., the process of finding and maintaining a suitable transmit and receive beam pair, can be challenging, particularly in highly dynamic scenarios. Side-information, e.g., orientation, from on-board sensors can assist the user equipment (UE) BM. In this work, we use the orientation information coming from the inertial measurement unit (IMU) for effective BM. We use a data-driven strategy that fuses the reference signal received power (RSRP) with orientation information using a recurrent neural network (RNN). Simulation results show that the proposed strategy performs much better than the conventional BM and an orientation-assisted BM strategy that utilizes particle filter in another study. Specifically, the proposed data-driven strategy improves the beam-prediction accuracy up to 34% and increases mean RSRP by up to 4.2 dB when the UE orientation changes quickly.

Energy-Based Models (EBMs) have proven to be a highly effective approach for modelling densities on finite-dimensional spaces. Their ability to incorporate domain-specific choices and constraints into the structure of the model through composition make EBMs an appealing candidate for applications in physics, biology and computer vision and various other fields. In this work, we present a novel class of EBM which is able to learn distributions of functions (such as curves or surfaces) from functional samples evaluated at finitely many points. Two unique challenges arise in the functional context. Firstly, training data is often not evaluated along a fixed set of points. Secondly, steps must be taken to control the behaviour of the model between evaluation points, to mitigate overfitting. The proposed infinite-dimensional EBM employs a latent Gaussian process, which is weighted spectrally by an energy function parameterised with a neural network. The resulting EBM has the ability to utilize irregularly sampled training data and can output predictions at any resolution, providing an effective approach to up-scaling functional data. We demonstrate the efficacy of our proposed approach for modelling a range of datasets, including data collected from Standard and Poor's 500 (S\&P) and UK National grid.

In order to achieve a more virtual design and certification process of jet engines in aviation industry, the uncertainty bounds for computational fluid dynamics have to be known. This work shows the application of a machine learning methodology to quantify the epistemic uncertainties of turbulence models. The underlying method in order to estimate the uncertainty bounds is based on an eigenspace perturbation of the Reynolds stress tensor in combination with random forests.

Multi-agent reinforcement learning (MARL) is a powerful framework for studying emergent behavior in complex agent-based simulations. However, RL agents are often assumed to be rational and behave optimally, which does not fully reflect human behavior. Here, we study more human-like RL agents which incorporate an established model of human-irrationality, the Rational Inattention (RI) model. RI models the cost of cognitive information processing using mutual information. Our RIRL framework generalizes and is more flexible than prior work by allowing for multi-timestep dynamics and information channels with heterogeneous processing costs. We evaluate RIRL in Principal-Agent (specifically manager-employee relations) problem settings of varying complexity where RI models information asymmetry (e.g. it may be costly for the manager to observe certain information about the employees). We show that using RIRL yields a rich spectrum of new equilibrium behaviors that differ from those found under rational assumptions. For instance, some forms of a Principal's inattention can increase Agent welfare due to increased compensation, while other forms of inattention can decrease Agent welfare by encouraging extra work effort. Additionally, new strategies emerge compared to those under rationality assumptions, e.g., Agents are incentivized to increase work effort. These results suggest RIRL is a powerful tool towards building AI agents that can mimic real human behavior.

Deep neural networks have achieved remarkable success in computer vision tasks. Existing neural networks mainly operate in the spatial domain with fixed input sizes. For practical applications, images are usually large and have to be downsampled to the predetermined input size of neural networks. Even though the downsampling operations reduce computation and the required communication bandwidth, it removes both redundant and salient information obliviously, which results in accuracy degradation. Inspired by digital signal processing theories, we analyze the spectral bias from the frequency perspective and propose a learning-based frequency selection method to identify the trivial frequency components which can be removed without accuracy loss. The proposed method of learning in the frequency domain leverages identical structures of the well-known neural networks, such as ResNet-50, MobileNetV2, and Mask R-CNN, while accepting the frequency-domain information as the input. Experiment results show that learning in the frequency domain with static channel selection can achieve higher accuracy than the conventional spatial downsampling approach and meanwhile further reduce the input data size. Specifically for ImageNet classification with the same input size, the proposed method achieves 1.41% and 0.66% top-1 accuracy improvements on ResNet-50 and MobileNetV2, respectively. Even with half input size, the proposed method still improves the top-1 accuracy on ResNet-50 by 1%. In addition, we observe a 0.8% average precision improvement on Mask R-CNN for instance segmentation on the COCO dataset.

Graph convolution is the core of most Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) and usually approximated by message passing between direct (one-hop) neighbors. In this work, we remove the restriction of using only the direct neighbors by introducing a powerful, yet spatially localized graph convolution: Graph diffusion convolution (GDC). GDC leverages generalized graph diffusion, examples of which are the heat kernel and personalized PageRank. It alleviates the problem of noisy and often arbitrarily defined edges in real graphs. We show that GDC is closely related to spectral-based models and thus combines the strengths of both spatial (message passing) and spectral methods. We demonstrate that replacing message passing with graph diffusion convolution consistently leads to significant performance improvements across a wide range of models on both supervised and unsupervised tasks and a variety of datasets. Furthermore, GDC is not limited to GNNs but can trivially be combined with any graph-based model or algorithm (e.g. spectral clustering) without requiring any changes to the latter or affecting its computational complexity. Our implementation is available online.

An interactive image retrieval system learns which images in the database belong to a user's query concept, by analyzing the example images and feedback provided by the user. The challenge is to retrieve the relevant images with minimal user interaction. In this work, we propose to solve this problem by posing it as a binary classification task of classifying all images in the database as being relevant or irrelevant to the user's query concept. Our method combines active learning with graph-based semi-supervised learning (GSSL) to tackle this problem. Active learning reduces the number of user interactions by querying the labels of the most informative points and GSSL allows to use abundant unlabeled data along with the limited labeled data provided by the user. To efficiently find the most informative point, we use an uncertainty sampling based method that queries the label of the point nearest to the decision boundary of the classifier. We estimate this decision boundary using our heuristic of adaptive threshold. To utilize huge volumes of unlabeled data we use an efficient approximation based method that reduces the complexity of GSSL from $O(n^3)$ to $O(n)$, making GSSL scalable. We make the classifier robust to the diversity and noisy labels associated with images in large databases by incorporating information from multiple modalities such as visual information extracted from deep learning based models and semantic information extracted from the WordNet. High F1 scores within few relevance feedback rounds in our experiments with concepts defined on AnimalWithAttributes and Imagenet (1.2 million images) datasets indicate the effectiveness and scalability of our approach.
