Current technological advancements of quantum computers highlight the need for application-driven, practical and well-defined methods of benchmarking their performance. As the existing NISQ device's quality of two-qubit gate errors rate is even around one percent and the number of qubits is still limited to a few or several dozen, naturally, we need to propose rather small algorithms instances taken from key promising application areas, such as quantum chemistry, combinatorial optimisation or machine learning. While many techniques for assessing the performance of logical components such as gate fidelity and qubit coherence exist, it is often challenging to extrapolate those values onto the performance of different quantum algorithms and subroutines. This work aims to introduce a series of initial quantum application benchmarks together with a methodology of execution for measuring performance and fidelity of the results. The proposed suite refers to several variational algorithms, widely-used on current NISQ devices, but also includes examples of quantum circuits designed for a fault-tolerant quantum computer.

We propose urgency programs, a new programming model with support for alternation, imperfect information, and recursion. The novelty are urgency annotations that decorate the (angelic and demonic) choice operators and control the order in which alternation is resolved. We study standard notions of contextual equivalence for urgency programs. Our first main result are fully abstract characterizations of these relations based on sound and complete axiomatizations. Our second main result settles their computability via a normal form construction. Notably, we show that the contextual preorder is (2h-1)-EXPTIME-complete for programs of maximal urgency h when the regular observable is given as an input resp. PTIME-complete when the regular observable is fixed. We designed urgency programs as a framework in which it is convenient to formulate and study verification and synthesis problems. We demonstrate this on a number of examples including the verification of concurrent and recursive programs and hyper model checking.

With the advancement of data-driven techniques, addressing continuous con-trol challenges has become more efficient. However, the reliance of these methods on historical data introduces the potential for unexpected decisions in novel scenarios. To enhance performance in autonomous driving and collision avoidance, we propose a symbiotic fusion of policy gradient with safety-based control. In this study, we em-ploy the Deep Deterministic Policy Gradient (DDPG) algorithm to enable autono-mous driving in the absence of surrounding vehicles. By training the vehicle's driving policy within a stable and familiar environment, a robust and efficient learning pro-cess is achieved. Subsequently, an artificial potential field approach is utilized to formulate a collision avoidance algorithm, accounting for the presence of surround-ing vehicles. Furthermore, meticulous consideration is given to path tracking meth-ods. The amalgamation of these approaches demonstrates substantial performance across diverse scenarios, underscoring its potential for advancing autonomous driving while upholding safety standards.

Imitation Learning (IL) is a powerful technique for intuitive robotic programming. However, ensuring the reliability of learned behaviors remains a challenge. In the context of reaching motions, a robot should consistently reach its goal, regardless of its initial conditions. To meet this requirement, IL methods often employ specialized function approximators that guarantee this property by construction. Although effective, these approaches come with a set of limitations: 1) they are unable to fully exploit the capabilities of modern Deep Neural Network (DNN) architectures, 2) some are restricted in the family of motions they can model, resulting in suboptimal IL capabilities, and 3) they require explicit extensions to account for the geometry of motions that consider orientations. To address these challenges, we introduce a novel stability loss function, drawing inspiration from the triplet loss used in the deep metric learning literature. This loss does not constrain the DNN's architecture and enables learning policies that yield accurate results. Furthermore, it is easily adaptable to the geometry of the robot's state space. We provide a proof of the stability properties induced by this loss and empirically validate our method in various settings. These settings include Euclidean and non-Euclidean state spaces, as well as first-order and second-order motions, both in simulation and with real robots.

Invariant risk minimization (IRM) has recently emerged as a promising alternative for domain generalization. Nevertheless, the loss function is difficult to optimize for nonlinear classifiers and the original optimization objective could fail when pseudo-invariant features and geometric skews exist. Inspired by IRM, in this paper we propose a novel formulation for domain generalization, dubbed invariant information bottleneck (IIB). IIB aims at minimizing invariant risks for nonlinear classifiers and simultaneously mitigating the impact of pseudo-invariant features and geometric skews. Specifically, we first present a novel formulation for invariant causal prediction via mutual information. Then we adopt the variational formulation of the mutual information to develop a tractable loss function for nonlinear classifiers. To overcome the failure modes of IRM, we propose to minimize the mutual information between the inputs and the corresponding representations. IIB significantly outperforms IRM on synthetic datasets, where the pseudo-invariant features and geometric skews occur, showing the effectiveness of proposed formulation in overcoming failure modes of IRM. Furthermore, experiments on DomainBed show that IIB outperforms $13$ baselines by $0.9\%$ on average across $7$ real datasets.

Data augmentation has been widely used to improve generalizability of machine learning models. However, comparatively little work studies data augmentation for graphs. This is largely due to the complex, non-Euclidean structure of graphs, which limits possible manipulation operations. Augmentation operations commonly used in vision and language have no analogs for graphs. Our work studies graph data augmentation for graph neural networks (GNNs) in the context of improving semi-supervised node-classification. We discuss practical and theoretical motivations, considerations and strategies for graph data augmentation. Our work shows that neural edge predictors can effectively encode class-homophilic structure to promote intra-class edges and demote inter-class edges in given graph structure, and our main contribution introduces the GAug graph data augmentation framework, which leverages these insights to improve performance in GNN-based node classification via edge prediction. Extensive experiments on multiple benchmarks show that augmentation via GAug improves performance across GNN architectures and datasets.

The task of detecting 3D objects in point cloud has a pivotal role in many real-world applications. However, 3D object detection performance is behind that of 2D object detection due to the lack of powerful 3D feature extraction methods. In order to address this issue, we propose to build a 3D backbone network to learn rich 3D feature maps by using sparse 3D CNN operations for 3D object detection in point cloud. The 3D backbone network can inherently learn 3D features from almost raw data without compressing point cloud into multiple 2D images and generate rich feature maps for object detection. The sparse 3D CNN takes full advantages of the sparsity in the 3D point cloud to accelerate computation and save memory, which makes the 3D backbone network achievable. Empirical experiments are conducted on the KITTI benchmark and results show that the proposed method can achieve state-of-the-art performance for 3D object detection.

The potential of graph convolutional neural networks for the task of zero-shot learning has been demonstrated recently. These models are highly sample efficient as related concepts in the graph structure share statistical strength allowing generalization to new classes when faced with a lack of data. However, knowledge from distant nodes can get diluted when propagating through intermediate nodes, because current approaches to zero-shot learning use graph propagation schemes that perform Laplacian smoothing at each layer. We show that extensive smoothing does not help the task of regressing classifier weights in zero-shot learning. In order to still incorporate information from distant nodes and utilize the graph structure, we propose an Attentive Dense Graph Propagation Module (ADGPM). ADGPM allows us to exploit the hierarchical graph structure of the knowledge graph through additional connections. These connections are added based on a node's relationship to its ancestors and descendants and an attention scheme is further used to weigh their contribution depending on the distance to the node. Finally, we illustrate that finetuning of the feature representation after training the ADGPM leads to considerable improvements. Our method achieves competitive results, outperforming previous zero-shot learning approaches.

Attention networks in multimodal learning provide an efficient way to utilize given visual information selectively. However, the computational cost to learn attention distributions for every pair of multimodal input channels is prohibitively expensive. To solve this problem, co-attention builds two separate attention distributions for each modality neglecting the interaction between multimodal inputs. In this paper, we propose bilinear attention networks (BAN) that find bilinear attention distributions to utilize given vision-language information seamlessly. BAN considers bilinear interactions among two groups of input channels, while low-rank bilinear pooling extracts the joint representations for each pair of channels. Furthermore, we propose a variant of multimodal residual networks to exploit eight-attention maps of the BAN efficiently. We quantitatively and qualitatively evaluate our model on visual question answering (VQA 2.0) and Flickr30k Entities datasets, showing that BAN significantly outperforms previous methods and achieves new state-of-the-arts on both datasets.

Inspired by recent development of artificial satellite, remote sensing images have attracted extensive attention. Recently, noticeable progress has been made in scene classification and target detection.However, it is still not clear how to describe the remote sensing image content with accurate and concise sentences. In this paper, we investigate to describe the remote sensing images with accurate and flexible sentences. First, some annotated instructions are presented to better describe the remote sensing images considering the special characteristics of remote sensing images. Second, in order to exhaustively exploit the contents of remote sensing images, a large-scale aerial image data set is constructed for remote sensing image caption. Finally, a comprehensive review is presented on the proposed data set to fully advance the task of remote sensing caption. Extensive experiments on the proposed data set demonstrate that the content of the remote sensing image can be completely described by generating language descriptions.
