Deep Neural Networks (DNNs) are the de facto algorithm for tackling cognitive tasks in real-world applications such as speech recognition and natural language processing. DNN inference comprises numerous dot product operations between inputs and weights that require numerous multiplications and memory accesses, which hinder their performance and energy consumption when evaluated in modern CPUs. In this work, we leverage the high degree of similarity between consecutive inputs in different DNN layers to improve the performance and energy efficiency of DNN inference on CPUs. To this end, we propose ReuseSense, a new hardware scheme that includes ReuseSensor, an engine to efficiently generate the compute and load instructions needed to evaluate a DNN layer accordingly when sensing similar inputs. By intelligently reusing previously computed product values, ReuseSense allows bypassing computations when encountering input values identical to previous ones. Additionally, it efficiently avoids redundant loads by skipping weight loads associated with the bypassed dot product computations. Our experiments show that ReuseSense achieves an 8x speedup in performance and a 74% reduction in total energy consumption across several DNNs on average over the baseline.

Secure aggregation of high-dimensional vectors is a fundamental primitive in federated statistics and learning. A two-server system such as PRIO allows for scalable aggregation of secret-shared vectors. Adversarial clients might try to manipulate the aggregate, so it is important to ensure that each (secret-shared) contribution is well-formed. In this work, we focus on the important and well-studied goal of ensuring that each contribution vector has bounded Euclidean norm. Existing protocols for ensuring bounded-norm contributions either incur a large communication overhead, or only allow for approximate verification of the norm bound. We propose Private Inexpensive Norm Enforcement (PINE): a new protocol that allows exact norm verification with little communication overhead. For high-dimensional vectors, our approach has a communication overhead of a few percent, compared to the 16-32x overhead of previous approaches.

Semantic communication has emerged as a promising technology to break the Shannon limit by extracting the meaning of source data and sending relevant semantic information only. However, some mobile devices may have limited computation and storage resources, which renders it difficult to deploy and implement the resource-demanding deep learning based semantic encoder/decoder. To tackle this challenge, we propose in this paper a new semantic relay (SemRelay), which is equipped with a semantic receiver for assisting text transmission from a resource-abundant base station (BS) to a resource-constrained mobile device. Specifically, the SemRelay first decodes the semantic information sent by the BS (with a semantic transmitter) and then forwards it to the user by adopting conventional bit transmission, hence effectively improving the text transmission efficiency. We formulate an optimization problem to maximize the achievable (effective) bit rate by jointly designing the SemRelay placement and bandwidth allocation. Although this problem is non-convex and generally difficult to solve, we propose an efficient penalty-based algorithm to obtain a high-quality suboptimal solution. Numerical results show the close-to-optimal performance of the proposed algorithm as well as significant rate performance gain of the proposed SemRelay over conventional decode-and-forward relay.

Text watermarking has emerged as an important technique for detecting machine-generated text. However, existing methods can severely degrade text quality due to arbitrary vocabulary partitioning, which disrupts the language model's expressiveness and impedes textual coherence. To mitigate this, we introduce XMark, a novel approach that capitalizes on text redundancy within the lexical space. Specifically, XMark incorporates a mutually exclusive rule for synonyms during the language model decoding process, thereby integrating prior knowledge into vocabulary partitioning and preserving the capabilities of language generation. We present theoretical analyses and empirical evidence demonstrating that XMark substantially enhances text generation fluency while maintaining watermark detectability. Furthermore, we investigate watermarking's impact on the emergent abilities of large language models, including zero-shot and few-shot knowledge recall, logical reasoning, and instruction following. Our comprehensive experiments confirm that XMark consistently outperforms existing methods in retaining these crucial capabilities of LLMs.

Interpolation-based Data Augmentation (DA) methods (Mixup) linearly interpolate the inputs and labels of two or more training examples. Mixup has more recently been adapted to the field of Natural Language Processing (NLP), mainly for sequence labeling tasks. However, such a simple adoption yields mixed or unstable improvements over the baseline models. We argue that the direct-adoption methods do not account for structures in NLP tasks. To this end, we propose SegMix, a collection of interpolation-based DA algorithms that can adapt to task-specific structures. SegMix poses fewer constraints on data structures, is robust to various hyperparameter settings, applies to more task settings, and adds little computational overhead. In the algorithm's core, we apply interpolation methods on task-specific meaningful segments, in contrast to applying them on sequences as in prior work. We find SegMix to be a flexible framework that combines rule-based DA methods with interpolation-based methods, creating interesting mixtures of DA techniques. We show that SegMix consistently improves performance over strong baseline models in Named Entity Recognition (NER) and Relation Extraction (RE) tasks, especially under data-scarce settings. Furthermore, this method is easy to implement and adds negligible training overhead.

Linear feature extraction at the presence of nonlinear dependencies among the data is a fundamental challenge in unsupervised learning. We propose using a Probabilistic Gram-Schmidt (PGS) type orthogonalization process in order to detect and map out redundant dimensions. Specifically, by applying the PGS process over any family of functions which presumably captures the nonlinear dependencies in the data, we construct a series of covariance matrices that can either be used to remove those dependencies from the principal components, or to identify new large-variance directions. In the former case, we prove that under certain assumptions the resulting algorithms detect and remove nonlinear dependencies whenever those dependencies lie in the linear span of the chosen function family. In the latter, we provide information-theoretic guarantees in terms of entropy reduction. Both proposed methods extract linear features from the data while removing nonlinear redundancies. We provide simulation results on synthetic and real-world datasets which show improved performance over PCA and state-of-the-art linear feature extraction algorithms, both in terms of variance maximization of the extracted features, and in terms of improved performance of classification algorithms.

Classic machine learning methods are built on the $i.i.d.$ assumption that training and testing data are independent and identically distributed. However, in real scenarios, the $i.i.d.$ assumption can hardly be satisfied, rendering the sharp drop of classic machine learning algorithms' performances under distributional shifts, which indicates the significance of investigating the Out-of-Distribution generalization problem. Out-of-Distribution (OOD) generalization problem addresses the challenging setting where the testing distribution is unknown and different from the training. This paper serves as the first effort to systematically and comprehensively discuss the OOD generalization problem, from the definition, methodology, evaluation to the implications and future directions. Firstly, we provide the formal definition of the OOD generalization problem. Secondly, existing methods are categorized into three parts based on their positions in the whole learning pipeline, namely unsupervised representation learning, supervised model learning and optimization, and typical methods for each category are discussed in detail. We then demonstrate the theoretical connections of different categories, and introduce the commonly used datasets and evaluation metrics. Finally, we summarize the whole literature and raise some future directions for OOD generalization problem. The summary of OOD generalization methods reviewed in this survey can be found at //out-of-distribution-generalization.com.

Generalization to out-of-distribution (OOD) data is a capability natural to humans yet challenging for machines to reproduce. This is because most learning algorithms strongly rely on the i.i.d.~assumption on source/target data, which is often violated in practice due to domain shift. Domain generalization (DG) aims to achieve OOD generalization by using only source data for model learning. Since first introduced in 2011, research in DG has made great progresses. In particular, intensive research in this topic has led to a broad spectrum of methodologies, e.g., those based on domain alignment, meta-learning, data augmentation, or ensemble learning, just to name a few; and has covered various vision applications such as object recognition, segmentation, action recognition, and person re-identification. In this paper, for the first time a comprehensive literature review is provided to summarize the developments in DG for computer vision over the past decade. Specifically, we first cover the background by formally defining DG and relating it to other research fields like domain adaptation and transfer learning. Second, we conduct a thorough review into existing methods and present a categorization based on their methodologies and motivations. Finally, we conclude this survey with insights and discussions on future research directions.

Graphs are widely used as a popular representation of the network structure of connected data. Graph data can be found in a broad spectrum of application domains such as social systems, ecosystems, biological networks, knowledge graphs, and information systems. With the continuous penetration of artificial intelligence technologies, graph learning (i.e., machine learning on graphs) is gaining attention from both researchers and practitioners. Graph learning proves effective for many tasks, such as classification, link prediction, and matching. Generally, graph learning methods extract relevant features of graphs by taking advantage of machine learning algorithms. In this survey, we present a comprehensive overview on the state-of-the-art of graph learning. Special attention is paid to four categories of existing graph learning methods, including graph signal processing, matrix factorization, random walk, and deep learning. Major models and algorithms under these categories are reviewed respectively. We examine graph learning applications in areas such as text, images, science, knowledge graphs, and combinatorial optimization. In addition, we discuss several promising research directions in this field.

Joint image-text embedding is the bedrock for most Vision-and-Language (V+L) tasks, where multimodality inputs are jointly processed for visual and textual understanding. In this paper, we introduce UNITER, a UNiversal Image-TExt Representation, learned through large-scale pre-training over four image-text datasets (COCO, Visual Genome, Conceptual Captions, and SBU Captions), which can power heterogeneous downstream V+L tasks with joint multimodal embeddings. We design three pre-training tasks: Masked Language Modeling (MLM), Image-Text Matching (ITM), and Masked Region Modeling (MRM, with three variants). Different from concurrent work on multimodal pre-training that apply joint random masking to both modalities, we use conditioned masking on pre-training tasks (i.e., masked language/region modeling is conditioned on full observation of image/text). Comprehensive analysis shows that conditioned masking yields better performance than unconditioned masking. We also conduct a thorough ablation study to find an optimal setting for the combination of pre-training tasks. Extensive experiments show that UNITER achieves new state of the art across six V+L tasks (over nine datasets), including Visual Question Answering, Image-Text Retrieval, Referring Expression Comprehension, Visual Commonsense Reasoning, Visual Entailment, and NLVR2.
