Cloud providers are adapting datacenter (DC) capacity to reduce carbon emissions. With hyperscale datacenters exceeding 100 MW individually, and in some grids exceeding 15% of power load, DC adaptation is large enough to harm power grid dynamics, increasing carbon emissions, power prices, or reduce grid reliability. To avoid harm, we explore coordination of DC capacity change varying scope in space and time. In space, coordination scope spans a single datacenter, a group of datacenters, and datacenters with the grid. In time, scope ranges from online to day-ahead. We also consider what DC and grid information is used (e.g. real-time and day-ahead average carbon, power price, and compute backlog). For example, in our proposed PlanShare scheme, each datacenter uses day-ahead information to create a capacity plan and shares it, allowing global grid optimization (over all loads, over entire day). We evaluate DC carbon emissions reduction. Results show that local coordination scope fails to reduce carbon emissions significantly (3.2%--5.4% reduction). Expanding coordination scope to a set of datacenters improves slightly (4.9%--7.3%). PlanShare, with grid-wide coordination and full-day capacity planning, performs the best. PlanShare reduces DC emissions by 11.6%--12.6%, 1.56x--1.26x better than the best local, online approach's results. PlanShare also achieves lower cost. We expect these advantages to increase as renewable generation in power grids increases. Further, a known full-day DC capacity plan provides a stable target for DC resource management.

Solving tasks such as speaker recognition, music classification, or semantic audio event tagging with deep learning models typically requires computationally demanding networks. General-purpose audio embeddings (GPAEs) are dense representations of audio signals that allow lightweight, shallow classifiers to tackle various audio tasks. The idea is that a single complex feature extractor would extract dense GPAEs, while shallow MLPs can produce task-specific predictions. If the extracted dense representations are general enough to allow the simple downstream classifiers to generalize to a variety of tasks in the audio domain, a single costly forward pass suffices to solve multiple tasks in parallel. In this work, we try to reduce the cost of GPAE extractors to make them suitable for resource-constrained devices. We use efficient MobileNets trained on AudioSet using Knowledge Distillation from a Transformer ensemble as efficient GPAE extractors. We explore how to obtain high-quality GPAEs from the model, study how model complexity relates to the quality of extracted GPAEs, and conclude that low-complexity models can generate competitive GPAEs, paving the way for analyzing audio streams on edge devices w.r.t. multiple audio classification and recognition tasks.

This paper considers a variant of zero-sum matrix games where at each timestep the row player chooses row $i$, the column player chooses column $j$, and the row player receives a noisy reward with mean $A_{i,j}$. The objective of the row player is to accumulate as much reward as possible, even against an adversarial column player. If the row player uses the EXP3 strategy, an algorithm known for obtaining $\sqrt{T}$ regret against an arbitrary sequence of rewards, it is immediate that the row player also achieves $\sqrt{T}$ regret relative to the Nash equilibrium in this game setting. However, partly motivated by the fact that the EXP3 strategy is myopic to the structure of the game, O'Donoghue et al. (2021) proposed a UCB-style algorithm that leverages the game structure and demonstrated that this algorithm greatly outperforms EXP3 empirically. While they showed that this UCB-style algorithm achieved $\sqrt{T}$ regret, in this paper we ask if there exists an algorithm that provably achieves $\text{polylog}(T)$ regret against any adversary, analogous to results from stochastic bandits. We propose a novel algorithm that answers this question in the affirmative for the simple $2 \times 2$ setting, providing the first instance-dependent guarantees for games in the regret setting. Our algorithm overcomes two major hurdles: 1) obtaining logarithmic regret even though the Nash equilibrium is estimable only at a $1/\sqrt{T}$ rate, and 2) designing row-player strategies that guarantee that either the adversary provides information about the Nash equilibrium, or the row player incurs negative regret. Moreover, in the full information case we address the general $n \times m$ case where the first hurdle is still relevant. Finally, we show that EXP3 and the UCB-based algorithm necessarily cannot perform better than $\sqrt{T}$.

Task and Motion Planning (TAMP) approaches are effective at planning long-horizon autonomous robot manipulation. However, because they require a planning model, it can be difficult to apply them to domains where the environment and its dynamics are not fully known. We propose to overcome these limitations by leveraging deep generative modeling, specifically diffusion models, to learn constraints and samplers that capture these difficult-to-engineer aspects of the planning model. These learned samplers are composed and combined within a TAMP solver in order to find action parameter values jointly that satisfy the constraints along a plan. To tractably make predictions for unseen objects in the environment, we define these samplers on low-dimensional learned latent embeddings of changing object state. We evaluate our approach in an articulated object manipulation domain and show how the combination of classical TAMP, generative learning, and latent embeddings enables long-horizon constraint-based reasoning.

We study the cost of overfitting in noisy kernel ridge regression (KRR), which we define as the ratio between the test error of the interpolating ridgeless model and the test error of the optimally-tuned model. We take an "agnostic" view in the following sense: we consider the cost as a function of sample size for any target function, even if the sample size is not large enough for consistency or the target is outside the RKHS. We analyze the cost of overfitting under a Gaussian universality ansatz using recently derived (non-rigorous) risk estimates in terms of the task eigenstructure. Our analysis provides a more refined characterization of benign, tempered and catastrophic overfitting (qv Mallinar et al. 2022).

We focus on decentralized stochastic non-convex optimization, where $n$ agents work together to optimize a composite objective function which is a sum of a smooth term and a non-smooth convex term. To solve this problem, we propose two single-time scale algorithms: Prox-DASA and Prox-DASA-GT. These algorithms can find $\epsilon$-stationary points in $\mathcal{O}(n^{-1}\epsilon^{-2})$ iterations using constant batch sizes (i.e., $\mathcal{O}(1)$). Unlike prior work, our algorithms achieve comparable complexity without requiring large batch sizes, more complex per-iteration operations (such as double loops), or stronger assumptions. Our theoretical findings are supported by extensive numerical experiments, which demonstrate the superiority of our algorithms over previous approaches. Our code is available at //github.com/xuxingc/ProxDASA.

To interconnect their growing number of servers, current supercomputers and data centers are starting to adopt low-diameter networks, such as HyperX, Dragonfly and Dragonfly+. These emergent topologies require balancing the load over their links and finding suitable non-minimal routing mechanisms for them becomes particularly challenging. The Valiant load balancing scheme is a very popular choice for non-minimal routing. Evolved adaptive routing mechanisms implemented in real systems are based on this Valiant scheme. All these low-diameter networks are deadlock-prone when non-minimal routing is employed. Routing deadlocks occur when packets cannot progress due to cyclic dependencies. Therefore, developing efficient deadlock-free packet routing mechanisms is critical for the progress of these emergent networks. The routing function includes the routing algorithm for path selection and the buffers management policy that dictates how packets allocate the buffers of the switches on their paths. For the same routing algorithm, a different buffer management mechanism can lead to a very different performance. Moreover, certain mechanisms considered efficient for avoiding deadlocks, may still suffer from hard to pinpoint instabilities that make erratic the network response. This paper focuses on exploring the impact of these buffers management policies on the performance of current interconnection networks, showing a 90\% of performance drop if an incorrect buffers management policy is used. Moreover, this study not only characterizes some of these undesirable scenarios but also proposes practicable solutions.

Given a dataset of $n$ i.i.d. samples from an unknown distribution $P$, we consider the problem of generating a sample from a distribution that is close to $P$ in total variation distance, under the constraint of differential privacy (DP). We study the problem when $P$ is a multi-dimensional Gaussian distribution, under different assumptions on the information available to the DP mechanism: known covariance, unknown bounded covariance, and unknown unbounded covariance. We present new DP sampling algorithms, and show that they achieve near-optimal sample complexity in the first two settings. Moreover, when $P$ is a product distribution on the binary hypercube, we obtain a pure-DP algorithm whereas only an approximate-DP algorithm (with slightly worse sample complexity) was previously known.

In stochastic zeroth-order optimization, a problem of practical relevance is understanding how to fully exploit the local geometry of the underlying objective function. We consider a fundamental setting in which the objective function is quadratic, and provide the first tight characterization of the optimal Hessian-dependent sample complexity. Our contribution is twofold. First, from an information-theoretic point of view, we prove tight lower bounds on Hessian-dependent complexities by introducing a concept called energy allocation, which captures the interaction between the searching algorithm and the geometry of objective functions. A matching upper bound is obtained by solving the optimal energy spectrum. Then, algorithmically, we show the existence of a Hessian-independent algorithm that universally achieves the asymptotic optimal sample complexities for all Hessian instances. The optimal sample complexities achieved by our algorithm remain valid for heavy-tailed noise distributions, which are enabled by a truncation method.

A Low-rank Spectral Optimization Problem (LSOP) minimizes a linear objective subject to multiple two-sided linear matrix inequalities intersected with a low-rank and spectral constrained domain set. Although solving LSOP is, in general, NP-hard, its partial convexification (i.e., replacing the domain set by its convex hull) termed "LSOP-R," is often tractable and yields a high-quality solution. This motivates us to study the strength of LSOP-R. Specifically, we derive rank bounds for any extreme point of the feasible set of LSOP-R and prove their tightness for the domain sets with different matrix spaces. The proposed rank bounds recover two well-known results in the literature from a fresh angle and also allow us to derive sufficient conditions under which the relaxation LSOP-R is equivalent to the original LSOP. To effectively solve LSOP-R, we develop a column generation algorithm with a vector-based convex pricing oracle, coupled with a rank-reduction algorithm, which ensures the output solution satisfies the theoretical rank bound. Finally, we numerically verify the strength of the LSOP-R and the efficacy of the proposed algorithms.
