Hyperspectral Imaging (HSI) serves as a non-destructive spatial spectroscopy technique with a multitude of potential applications. However, a recurring challenge lies in the limited size of the target datasets, impeding exhaustive architecture search. Consequently, when venturing into novel applications, reliance on established methodologies becomes commonplace, in the hope that they exhibit favorable generalization characteristics. Regrettably, this optimism is often unfounded due to the fine-tuned nature of models tailored to specific HSI contexts. To address this predicament, this study introduces an innovative benchmark dataset encompassing three markedly distinct HSI applications: food inspection, remote sensing, and recycling. This comprehensive dataset affords a finer assessment of hyperspectral model capabilities. Moreover, this benchmark facilitates an incisive examination of prevailing state-of-the-art techniques, consequently fostering the evolution of superior methodologies. Furthermore, the enhanced diversity inherent in the benchmark dataset underpins the establishment of a pretraining pipeline for HSI. This pretraining regimen serves to enhance the stability of training processes for larger models. Additionally, a procedural framework is delineated, offering insights into the handling of applications afflicted by limited target dataset sizes.

The Capacitated Vehicle Routing Problem (CVRP) is an NP-optimization problem (NPO) that arises in various fields including transportation and logistics. The CVRP extends from the Vehicle Routing Problem (VRP), aiming to determine the most efficient plan for a fleet of vehicles to deliver goods to a set of customers, subject to the limited carrying capacity of each vehicle. As the number of possible solutions skyrockets when the number of customers increases, finding the optimal solution remains a significant challenge. Recently, a quantum-classical hybrid algorithm known as Quantum Approximate Optimization Algorithm (QAOA) can provide better solutions in some cases of combinatorial optimization problems, compared to classical heuristics. However, the QAOA exhibits a diminished ability to produce high-quality solutions for some constrained optimization problems including the CVRP. One potential approach for improvement involves a variation of the QAOA known as the Grover-Mixer Quantum Alternating Operator Ansatz (GM-QAOA). In this work, we attempt to use GM-QAOA to solve the CVRP. We present a new binary encoding for the CVRP, with an alternative objective function of minimizing the shortest path that bypasses the vehicle capacity constraint of the CVRP. The search space is further restricted by the Grover-Mixer. We examine and discuss the effectiveness of the proposed solver through its application to several illustrative examples.

The convergence of SGD based distributed training algorithms is tied to the data distribution across workers. Standard partitioning techniques try to achieve equal-sized partitions with per-class population distribution in proportion to the total dataset. Partitions having the same overall population size or even the same number of samples per class may still have Non-IID distribution in the feature space. In heterogeneous computing environments, when devices have different computing capabilities, even-sized partitions across devices can lead to the straggler problem in distributed SGD. We develop a framework for distributed SGD in heterogeneous environments based on a novel data partitioning algorithm involving submodular optimization. Our data partitioning algorithm explicitly accounts for resource heterogeneity across workers while achieving similar class-level feature distribution and maintaining class balance. Based on this algorithm, we develop a distributed SGD framework that can accelerate existing SOTA distributed training algorithms by up to 32%.

The Butterfly Effect, a concept originating from chaos theory, underscores how small changes can have significant and unpredictable impacts on complex systems. In the context of AI fairness and bias, the Butterfly Effect can stem from a variety of sources, such as small biases or skewed data inputs during algorithm development, saddle points in training, or distribution shifts in data between training and testing phases. These seemingly minor alterations can lead to unexpected and substantial unfair outcomes, disproportionately affecting underrepresented individuals or groups and perpetuating pre-existing inequalities. Moreover, the Butterfly Effect can amplify inherent biases within data or algorithms, exacerbate feedback loops, and create vulnerabilities for adversarial attacks. Given the intricate nature of AI systems and their societal implications, it is crucial to thoroughly examine any changes to algorithms or input data for potential unintended consequences. In this paper, we envision both algorithmic and empirical strategies to detect, quantify, and mitigate the Butterfly Effect in AI systems, emphasizing the importance of addressing these challenges to promote fairness and ensure responsible AI development.

Advanced Persistent Threat (APT) attacks are highly sophisticated and employ a multitude of advanced methods and techniques to target organizations and steal sensitive and confidential information. APT attacks consist of multiple stages and have a defined strategy, utilizing new and innovative techniques and technologies developed by hackers to evade security software monitoring. To effectively protect against APTs, detecting and predicting APT indicators with an explanation from Machine Learning (ML) prediction is crucial to reveal the characteristics of attackers lurking in the network system. Meanwhile, Federated Learning (FL) has emerged as a promising approach for building intelligent applications without compromising privacy. This is particularly important in cybersecurity, where sensitive data and high-quality labeling play a critical role in constructing effective machine learning models for detecting cyber threats. Therefore, this work proposes XFedHunter, an explainable federated learning framework for APT detection in Software-Defined Networking (SDN) leveraging local cyber threat knowledge from many training collaborators. In XFedHunter, Graph Neural Network (GNN) and Deep Learning model are utilized to reveal the malicious events effectively in the large number of normal ones in the network system. The experimental results on NF-ToN-IoT and DARPA TCE3 datasets indicate that our framework can enhance the trust and accountability of ML-based systems utilized for cybersecurity purposes without privacy leakage.

We introduce a multilingual speaker change detection model (USM-SCD) that can simultaneously detect speaker turns and perform ASR for 96 languages. This model is adapted from a speech foundation model trained on a large quantity of supervised and unsupervised data, demonstrating the utility of fine-tuning from a large generic foundation model for a downstream task. We analyze the performance of this multilingual speaker change detection model through a series of ablation studies. We show that the USM-SCD model can achieve more than 75% average speaker change detection F1 score across a test set that consists of data from 96 languages. On American English, the USM-SCD model can achieve an 85.8% speaker change detection F1 score across various public and internal test sets, beating the previous monolingual baseline model by 21% relative. We also show that we only need to fine-tune one-quarter of the trainable model parameters to achieve the best model performance. The USM-SCD model exhibits state-of-the-art ASR quality compared with a strong public ASR baseline, making it suitable to handle both tasks with negligible additional computational cost.

The application of Physics-Informed Neural Networks (PINNs) is investigated for the first time in solving the one-dimensional Countercurrent spontaneous imbibition (COUCSI) problem at both early and late time (i.e., before and after the imbibition front meets the no-flow boundary). We introduce utilization of Change-of-Variables as a technique for improving performance of PINNs. We formulated the COUCSI problem in three equivalent forms by changing the independent variables. The first describes saturation as function of normalized position X and time T; the second as function of X and Y=T^0.5; and the third as a sole function of Z=X/T^0.5 (valid only at early time). The PINN model was generated using a feed-forward neural network and trained based on minimizing a weighted loss function, including the physics-informed loss term and terms corresponding to the initial and boundary conditions. All three formulations could closely approximate the correct solutions, with water saturation mean absolute errors around 0.019 and 0.009 for XT and XY formulations and 0.012 for the Z formulation at early time. The Z formulation perfectly captured the self-similarity of the system at early time. This was less captured by XT and XY formulations. The total variation of saturation was preserved in the Z formulation, and it was better preserved with XY- than XT formulation. Redefining the problem based on the physics-inspired variables reduced the non-linearity of the problem and allowed higher solution accuracies, a higher degree of loss-landscape convexity, a lower number of required collocation points, smaller network sizes, and more computationally efficient solutions.

Graph Convolutional Networks (GCNs) have been widely applied in various fields due to their significant power on processing graph-structured data. Typical GCN and its variants work under a homophily assumption (i.e., nodes with same class are prone to connect to each other), while ignoring the heterophily which exists in many real-world networks (i.e., nodes with different classes tend to form edges). Existing methods deal with heterophily by mainly aggregating higher-order neighborhoods or combing the immediate representations, which leads to noise and irrelevant information in the result. But these methods did not change the propagation mechanism which works under homophily assumption (that is a fundamental part of GCNs). This makes it difficult to distinguish the representation of nodes from different classes. To address this problem, in this paper we design a novel propagation mechanism, which can automatically change the propagation and aggregation process according to homophily or heterophily between node pairs. To adaptively learn the propagation process, we introduce two measurements of homophily degree between node pairs, which is learned based on topological and attribute information, respectively. Then we incorporate the learnable homophily degree into the graph convolution framework, which is trained in an end-to-end schema, enabling it to go beyond the assumption of homophily. More importantly, we theoretically prove that our model can constrain the similarity of representations between nodes according to their homophily degree. Experiments on seven real-world datasets demonstrate that this new approach outperforms the state-of-the-art methods under heterophily or low homophily, and gains competitive performance under homophily.

Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) are widely used for analyzing graph-structured data. Most GNN methods are highly sensitive to the quality of graph structures and usually require a perfect graph structure for learning informative embeddings. However, the pervasiveness of noise in graphs necessitates learning robust representations for real-world problems. To improve the robustness of GNN models, many studies have been proposed around the central concept of Graph Structure Learning (GSL), which aims to jointly learn an optimized graph structure and corresponding representations. Towards this end, in the presented survey, we broadly review recent progress of GSL methods for learning robust representations. Specifically, we first formulate a general paradigm of GSL, and then review state-of-the-art methods classified by how they model graph structures, followed by applications that incorporate the idea of GSL in other graph tasks. Finally, we point out some issues in current studies and discuss future directions.

Deep Learning (DL) is vulnerable to out-of-distribution and adversarial examples resulting in incorrect outputs. To make DL more robust, several posthoc anomaly detection techniques to detect (and discard) these anomalous samples have been proposed in the recent past. This survey tries to provide a structured and comprehensive overview of the research on anomaly detection for DL based applications. We provide a taxonomy for existing techniques based on their underlying assumptions and adopted approaches. We discuss various techniques in each of the categories and provide the relative strengths and weaknesses of the approaches. Our goal in this survey is to provide an easier yet better understanding of the techniques belonging to different categories in which research has been done on this topic. Finally, we highlight the unsolved research challenges while applying anomaly detection techniques in DL systems and present some high-impact future research directions.
