A robust authentication and authorization mechanism is imperative in modular system development, where modularity and modular thinking are pivotal. Traditional systems often employ identity modules responsible for authentication and token issuance. Tokens, representing user credentials, offer advantages such as reduced reliance on passwords, limited lifespan, and scoped access. Despite these benefits, the "bearer token" problem persists, leaving systems vulnerable to abuse if tokens are compromised. We propose a token-based authentication mechanism addressing modular systems' critical bearer token problem. The proposed mechanism includes a novel RAF (Recursive Augmented Fernet) token, a blacklist component, and a policy enforcer component. RAF tokens are one-time-use tokens, like tickets. They carry commands, and the receiver of an RAF token can issue new tokens using the received RAF token. The blacklist component guarantees an RAF token can not be approved more than once, and the policy enforcer checks the compatibility of commands carried by an RAF token. We introduce two variations of RAF tokens: User-tied RAF, offering simplicity and compatibility, and Fully-tied RAF, providing enhanced security through service-specific secret keys. We thoroughly discuss the security guarantees, technical definitions, and construction of RAF tokens backed by game-based proofs. We demonstrate a proof of concept in the context of OpenStack, involving modifications to Keystone and creating an RAFT library. The experimental results reveal minimal overhead in typical scenarios, establishing the practicality and effectiveness of RAF. Our experiments show that the RAF mechanism beats the idea of using short-life Fernet tokens while providing much better security.

Bayesian optimization is a coherent, ubiquitous approach to decision-making under uncertainty, with applications including multi-arm bandits, active learning, and black-box optimization. Bayesian optimization selects decisions (i.e. objective function queries) with maximal expected utility with respect to the posterior distribution of a Bayesian model, which quantifies reducible, epistemic uncertainty about query outcomes. In practice, subjectively implausible outcomes can occur regularly for two reasons: 1) model misspecification and 2) covariate shift. Conformal prediction is an uncertainty quantification method with coverage guarantees even for misspecified models and a simple mechanism to correct for covariate shift. We propose conformal Bayesian optimization, which directs queries towards regions of search space where the model predictions have guaranteed validity, and investigate its behavior on a suite of black-box optimization tasks and tabular ranking tasks. In many cases we find that query coverage can be significantly improved without harming sample-efficiency.

Early action recognition is an important and challenging problem that enables the recognition of an action from a partially observed video stream where the activity is potentially unfinished or even not started. In this work, we propose a novel model that learns a prototypical representation of the full action for each class and uses it to regularize the architecture and the visual representations of the partial observations. Our model is very simple in design and also efficient. We decompose the video into short clips, where a visual encoder extracts features from each clip independently. Later, a decoder aggregates together in an online fashion features from all the clips for the final class prediction. During training, for each partial observation, the model is jointly trained to both predict the label as well as the action prototypical representation which acts as a regularizer. We evaluate our method on multiple challenging real-world datasets and outperform the current state-of-the-art by a significant margin. For example, on early recognition observing only the first 10% of each video, our method improves the SOTA by +2.23 Top-1 accuracy on Something-Something-v2, +3.55 on UCF-101, +3.68 on SSsub21, and +5.03 on EPIC-Kitchens-55, where prior work used either multi-modal inputs (e.g. optical-flow) or batched inference. Finally, we also present exhaustive ablation studies to motivate the design choices we made, as well as gather insights regarding what our model is learning semantically.

Medical Vision Language Pretraining (VLP) has recently emerged as a promising solution to the scarcity of labeled data in the medical domain. By leveraging paired/unpaired vision and text datasets through self-supervised learning, models can be trained to acquire vast knowledge and learn robust feature representations. Such pretrained models have the potential to enhance multiple downstream medical tasks simultaneously, reducing the dependency on labeled data. However, despite recent progress and its potential, there is no such comprehensive survey paper that has explored the various aspects and advancements in medical VLP. In this paper, we specifically review existing works through the lens of different pretraining objectives, architectures, downstream evaluation tasks, and datasets utilized for pretraining and downstream tasks. Subsequently, we delve into current challenges in medical VLP, discussing existing and potential solutions, and conclude by highlighting future directions. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first survey focused on medical VLP.

Designing and generating new data under targeted properties has been attracting various critical applications such as molecule design, image editing and speech synthesis. Traditional hand-crafted approaches heavily rely on expertise experience and intensive human efforts, yet still suffer from the insufficiency of scientific knowledge and low throughput to support effective and efficient data generation. Recently, the advancement of deep learning induces expressive methods that can learn the underlying representation and properties of data. Such capability provides new opportunities in figuring out the mutual relationship between the structural patterns and functional properties of the data and leveraging such relationship to generate structural data given the desired properties. This article provides a systematic review of this promising research area, commonly known as controllable deep data generation. Firstly, the potential challenges are raised and preliminaries are provided. Then the controllable deep data generation is formally defined, a taxonomy on various techniques is proposed and the evaluation metrics in this specific domain are summarized. After that, exciting applications of controllable deep data generation are introduced and existing works are experimentally analyzed and compared. Finally, the promising future directions of controllable deep data generation are highlighted and five potential challenges are identified.

The existence of representative datasets is a prerequisite of many successful artificial intelligence and machine learning models. However, the subsequent application of these models often involves scenarios that are inadequately represented in the data used for training. The reasons for this are manifold and range from time and cost constraints to ethical considerations. As a consequence, the reliable use of these models, especially in safety-critical applications, is a huge challenge. Leveraging additional, already existing sources of knowledge is key to overcome the limitations of purely data-driven approaches, and eventually to increase the generalization capability of these models. Furthermore, predictions that conform with knowledge are crucial for making trustworthy and safe decisions even in underrepresented scenarios. This work provides an overview of existing techniques and methods in the literature that combine data-based models with existing knowledge. The identified approaches are structured according to the categories integration, extraction and conformity. Special attention is given to applications in the field of autonomous driving.

Convolutional neural networks have made significant progresses in edge detection by progressively exploring the context and semantic features. However, local details are gradually suppressed with the enlarging of receptive fields. Recently, vision transformer has shown excellent capability in capturing long-range dependencies. Inspired by this, we propose a novel transformer-based edge detector, \emph{Edge Detection TransformER (EDTER)}, to extract clear and crisp object boundaries and meaningful edges by exploiting the full image context information and detailed local cues simultaneously. EDTER works in two stages. In Stage I, a global transformer encoder is used to capture long-range global context on coarse-grained image patches. Then in Stage II, a local transformer encoder works on fine-grained patches to excavate the short-range local cues. Each transformer encoder is followed by an elaborately designed Bi-directional Multi-Level Aggregation decoder to achieve high-resolution features. Finally, the global context and local cues are combined by a Feature Fusion Module and fed into a decision head for edge prediction. Extensive experiments on BSDS500, NYUDv2, and Multicue demonstrate the superiority of EDTER in comparison with state-of-the-arts.

Following unprecedented success on the natural language tasks, Transformers have been successfully applied to several computer vision problems, achieving state-of-the-art results and prompting researchers to reconsider the supremacy of convolutional neural networks (CNNs) as {de facto} operators. Capitalizing on these advances in computer vision, the medical imaging field has also witnessed growing interest for Transformers that can capture global context compared to CNNs with local receptive fields. Inspired from this transition, in this survey, we attempt to provide a comprehensive review of the applications of Transformers in medical imaging covering various aspects, ranging from recently proposed architectural designs to unsolved issues. Specifically, we survey the use of Transformers in medical image segmentation, detection, classification, reconstruction, synthesis, registration, clinical report generation, and other tasks. In particular, for each of these applications, we develop taxonomy, identify application-specific challenges as well as provide insights to solve them, and highlight recent trends. Further, we provide a critical discussion of the field's current state as a whole, including the identification of key challenges, open problems, and outlining promising future directions. We hope this survey will ignite further interest in the community and provide researchers with an up-to-date reference regarding applications of Transformer models in medical imaging. Finally, to cope with the rapid development in this field, we intend to regularly update the relevant latest papers and their open-source implementations at \url{//github.com/fahadshamshad/awesome-transformers-in-medical-imaging}.

It is important to detect anomalous inputs when deploying machine learning systems. The use of larger and more complex inputs in deep learning magnifies the difficulty of distinguishing between anomalous and in-distribution examples. At the same time, diverse image and text data are available in enormous quantities. We propose leveraging these data to improve deep anomaly detection by training anomaly detectors against an auxiliary dataset of outliers, an approach we call Outlier Exposure (OE). This enables anomaly detectors to generalize and detect unseen anomalies. In extensive experiments on natural language processing and small- and large-scale vision tasks, we find that Outlier Exposure significantly improves detection performance. We also observe that cutting-edge generative models trained on CIFAR-10 may assign higher likelihoods to SVHN images than to CIFAR-10 images; we use OE to mitigate this issue. We also analyze the flexibility and robustness of Outlier Exposure, and identify characteristics of the auxiliary dataset that improve performance.

Object detection is considered as one of the most challenging problems in computer vision, since it requires correct prediction of both classes and locations of objects in images. In this study, we define a more difficult scenario, namely zero-shot object detection (ZSD) where no visual training data is available for some of the target object classes. We present a novel approach to tackle this ZSD problem, where a convex combination of embeddings are used in conjunction with a detection framework. For evaluation of ZSD methods, we propose a simple dataset constructed from Fashion-MNIST images and also a custom zero-shot split for the Pascal VOC detection challenge. The experimental results suggest that our method yields promising results for ZSD.
