Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) serving as aerial base stations can be deployed to provide wireless connectivity to mobile users, such as vehicles. However, the density of vehicles on roads often varies spatially and temporally primarily due to mobility and traffic situations in a geographical area, making it difficult to provide ubiquitous service. Moreover, as energy-constrained UAVs hover in the sky while serving mobile users, they may be faced with interference from nearby UAV cells or other access points sharing the same frequency band, thereby impacting the system's energy efficiency (EE). Recent multi-agent reinforcement learning (MARL) approaches applied to optimise the users' coverage worked well in reasonably even densities but might not perform as well in uneven users' distribution, i.e., in urban road networks with uneven concentration of vehicles. In this work, we propose a density-aware communication-enabled multi-agent decentralised double deep Q-network (DACEMAD-DDQN) approach that maximises the total system's EE by jointly optimising the trajectory of each UAV, the number of connected users, and the UAVs' energy consumption while keeping track of dense and uneven users' distribution. Our result outperforms state-of-the-art MARL approaches in terms of EE by as much as 65% - 85%.

We consider the problem of estimating a scalar target parameter in the presence of nuisance parameters. Replacing the unknown nuisance parameter with a nonparametric estimator, e.g.,a machine learning (ML) model, is convenient but has shown to be inefficient due to large biases. Modern methods, such as the targeted minimum loss-based estimation (TMLE) and double machine learning (DML), achieve optimal performance under flexible assumptions by harnessing ML estimates while mitigating the plug-in bias. To avoid a sub-optimal bias-variance trade-off, these methods perform a debiasing step of the plug-in pre-estimate. Existing debiasing methods require the influence function of the target parameter as input. However, deriving the IF requires specialized expertise and thus obstructs the adaptation of these methods by practitioners. We propose a novel way to debias plug-in estimators which (i) is efficient, (ii) does not require the IF to be implemented, (iii) is computationally tractable, and therefore can be readily adapted to new estimation problems and automated without analytic derivations by the user. We build on the TMLE framework and update a plug-in estimate with a regularized likelihood maximization step over a nonparametric model constructed with a reproducing kernel Hilbert space (RKHS), producing an efficient plug-in estimate for any regular target parameter. Our method, thus, offers the efficiency of competing debiasing techniques without sacrificing the utility of the plug-in approach.

Complete reliance on the fitted model in response surface experiments is risky and relaxing this assumption, whether out of necessity or intentionally, requires an experimenter to account for multiple conflicting objectives. This work provides a methodological framework of a compound optimality criterion comprising elementary criteria responsible for: (i) the quality of the confidence region-based inference to be done using the fitted model (DP-/LP-optimality); (ii) improving the ability to test for the lack-of-fit from specified potential model contamination in the form of extra polynomial terms; and (iii) simultaneous minimisation of the variance and bias of the fitted model parameters arising from this misspecification. The latter two components have been newly developed in accordance with the model-independent 'pure error' approach to the error estimation. The compound criteria and design construction were adapted to restricted randomisation frameworks: blocked and multistratum experiments, where the stratum-by-stratum approach was adopted. A point-exchange algorithm was employed for searching for nearly optimal designs. The theoretical work is accompanied by one real and two illustrative examples to explore the relationship patterns among the individual components and characteristics of the optimal designs, demonstrating the attainable compromises across the competing objectives and driving some general practical recommendations.

Many Artificial Intelligence (AI) algorithms are inspired by physics and employ stochastic fluctuations. We connect these physics-inspired AI algorithms by unifying them under a single mathematical framework that we call Thermodynamic AI. Seemingly disparate algorithmic classes can be described by this framework, for example, (1) Generative diffusion models, (2) Bayesian neural networks, (3) Monte Carlo sampling and (4) Simulated annealing. Such Thermodynamic AI algorithms are currently run on digital hardware, ultimately limiting their scalability and overall potential. Stochastic fluctuations naturally occur in physical thermodynamic systems, and such fluctuations can be viewed as a computational resource. Hence, we propose a novel computing paradigm, where software and hardware become inseparable. Our algorithmic unification allows us to identify a single full-stack paradigm, involving Thermodynamic AI hardware, that could accelerate such algorithms. We contrast Thermodynamic AI hardware with quantum computing where noise is a roadblock rather than a resource. Thermodynamic AI hardware can be viewed as a novel form of computing, since it uses a novel fundamental building block. We identify stochastic bits (s-bits) and stochastic modes (s-modes) as the respective building blocks for discrete and continuous Thermodynamic AI hardware. In addition to these stochastic units, Thermodynamic AI hardware employs a Maxwell's demon device that guides the system to produce non-trivial states. We provide a few simple physical architectures for building these devices and we develop a formalism for programming the hardware via gate sequences. We hope to stimulate discussion around this new computing paradigm. Beyond acceleration, we believe it will impact the design of both hardware and algorithms, while also deepening our understanding of the connection between physics and intelligence.

Imitation learning has achieved great success in many sequential decision-making tasks, in which a neural agent is learned by imitating collected human demonstrations. However, existing algorithms typically require a large number of high-quality demonstrations that are difficult and expensive to collect. Usually, a trade-off needs to be made between demonstration quality and quantity in practice. Targeting this problem, in this work we consider the imitation of sub-optimal demonstrations, with both a small clean demonstration set and a large noisy set. Some pioneering works have been proposed, but they suffer from many limitations, e.g., assuming a demonstration to be of the same optimality throughout time steps and failing to provide any interpretation w.r.t knowledge learned from the noisy set. Addressing these problems, we propose {\method} by evaluating and imitating at the sub-demonstration level, encoding action primitives of varying quality into different skills. Concretely, {\method} consists of a high-level controller to discover skills and a skill-conditioned module to capture action-taking policies, and is trained following a two-phase pipeline by first discovering skills with all demonstrations and then adapting the controller to only the clean set. A mutual-information-based regularization and a dynamic sub-demonstration optimality estimator are designed to promote disentanglement in the skill space. Extensive experiments are conducted over two gym environments and a real-world healthcare dataset to demonstrate the superiority of {\method} in learning from sub-optimal demonstrations and its improved interpretability by examining learned skills.

In this paper, we broaden the understanding of the recently introduced concepts of solid-locating-dominating and self-locating-dominating codes in various graphs. In particular, we present the optimal, i.e., smallest possible, codes in the infinite triangular and king grids. Furthermore, we give optimal locating-dominating, self-locating-dominating and solid-locating-dominating codes in the direct product $K_n\times K_m$ of complete graphs. We also present optimal solid-locating-dominating codes for the Hamming graphs $K_q\square K_q\square K_q$ with $q\geq2$.

High-fidelity simulators that connect theoretical models with observations are indispensable tools in many sciences. When coupled with machine learning, a simulator makes it possible to infer the parameters of a theoretical model directly from real and simulated observations without explicit use of the likelihood function. This is of particular interest when the latter is intractable. We introduce a simple modification of the recently proposed likelihood-free frequentist inference (LF2I) approach that has some computational advantages. The utility of our algorithm is illustrated by applying it to three pedagogically interesting examples: the first is from cosmology, the second from high-energy physics and astronomy, both with tractable likelihoods, while the third, with an intractable likelihood, is from epidemiology.

Label error is a ubiquitous problem in annotated data. Large amounts of label error substantially degrades the quality of deep learning models. Existing methods to tackle the label error problem largely focus on the classification task, and either rely on task specific architecture or require non-trivial additional computations, which is undesirable or even unattainable for industry usage. In this paper, we propose LEDO: a model-agnostic and computationally efficient framework for Label Error Detection and Overwrite. LEDO is based on Monte Carlo Dropout combined with uncertainty metrics, and can be easily generalized to multiple tasks and data sets. Applying LEDO to an industry opinion-based question answering system demonstrates it is effective at improving accuracy in all the core models. Specifically, LEDO brings 1.1% MRR gain for the retrieval model, 1.5% PR AUC improvement for the machine reading comprehension model, and 0.9% rise in the Average Precision for the ranker, on top of the strong baselines with a large-scale social media dataset. Importantly, LEDO is computationally efficient compared to methods that require loss function change, and cost-effective as the resulting data can be used in the same continuous training pipeline for production. Further analysis shows that these gains come from an improved decision boundary after cleaning the label errors existed in the training data.

With the rise of knowledge graph (KG), question answering over knowledge base (KBQA) has attracted increasing attention in recent years. Despite much research has been conducted on this topic, it is still challenging to apply KBQA technology in industry because business knowledge and real-world questions can be rather complicated. In this paper, we present AliMe-KBQA, a bold attempt to apply KBQA in the E-commerce customer service field. To handle real knowledge and questions, we extend the classic "subject-predicate-object (SPO)" structure with property hierarchy, key-value structure and compound value type (CVT), and enhance traditional KBQA with constraints recognition and reasoning ability. We launch AliMe-KBQA in the Marketing Promotion scenario for merchants during the "Double 11" period in 2018 and other such promotional events afterwards. Online results suggest that AliMe-KBQA is not only able to gain better resolution and improve customer satisfaction, but also becomes the preferred knowledge management method by business knowledge staffs since it offers a more convenient and efficient management experience.

We examine the problem of question answering over knowledge graphs, focusing on simple questions that can be answered by the lookup of a single fact. Adopting a straightforward decomposition of the problem into entity detection, entity linking, relation prediction, and evidence combination, we explore simple yet strong baselines. On the popular SimpleQuestions dataset, we find that basic LSTMs and GRUs plus a few heuristics yield accuracies that approach the state of the art, and techniques that do not use neural networks also perform reasonably well. These results show that gains from sophisticated deep learning techniques proposed in the literature are quite modest and that some previous models exhibit unnecessary complexity.
