While application profiling has been a mainstay in the HPC community for years, profiling of MPI and other communication middleware has not received the same degree of exploration. This paper adds to the discussion of MPI profiling, contributing two general-purpose profiling methods as well as practical applications of these methods to an existing implementation. The ability to detect performance defects in MPI codes using these methods increases the potential of further research and development in communication optimization.

Existing blind image quality assessment (BIQA) methods focus on designing complicated networks based on convolutional neural networks (CNNs) or transformer. In addition, some BIQA methods enhance the performance of the model in a two-stage training manner. Despite the significant advancements, these methods remarkably raise the parameter count of the model, thus requiring more training time and computational resources. To tackle the above issues, we propose a lightweight parallel framework (LPF) for BIQA. First, we extract the visual features using a pre-trained feature extraction network. Furthermore, we construct a simple yet effective feature embedding network (FEN) to transform the visual features, aiming to generate the latent representations that contain salient distortion information. To improve the robustness of the latent representations, we present two novel self-supervised subtasks, including a sample-level category prediction task and a batch-level quality comparison task. The sample-level category prediction task is presented to help the model with coarse-grained distortion perception. The batch-level quality comparison task is formulated to enhance the training data and thus improve the robustness of the latent representations. Finally, the latent representations are fed into a distortion-aware quality regression network (DaQRN), which simulates the human vision system (HVS) and thus generates accurate quality scores. Experimental results on multiple benchmark datasets demonstrate that the proposed method achieves superior performance over state-of-the-art approaches. Moreover, extensive analyses prove that the proposed method has lower computational complexity and faster convergence speed.

Network pruning can reduce the computation cost of deep neural network (DNN) models. However, sparse models often produce randomly-distributed weights to maintain accuracy, leading to irregular computations. Consequently, unstructured sparse models cannot achieve meaningful speedup on commodity hardware built for dense matrix computations. Accelerators are usually modified or designed with structured sparsity-optimized architectures for exploiting sparsity. For example, the Ampere architecture introduces a sparse tensor core, which adopts the 2:4 sparsity pattern. We propose a pruning method that builds upon the insight that matrix multiplication generally breaks the large matrix into multiple smaller tiles for parallel execution. We present the tile-wise sparsity pattern, which maintains a structured sparsity pattern at the tile level for efficient execution but allows for irregular pruning at the global scale to maintain high accuracy. In addition, the tile-wise sparsity is implemented at the global memory level, and the 2:4 sparsity executes at the register level inside the sparse tensor core. We can combine these two patterns into a tile-vector-wise (TVW) sparsity pattern to explore more fine-grained sparsity and further accelerate the sparse DNN models. We evaluate the TVW on the GPU, achieving averages of $1.85\times$, $2.75\times$, and $22.18\times$ speedups over the dense model, block sparsity, and unstructured sparsity.

Structured sparsity is an efficient way to prune the complexity of modern Machine Learning (ML) applications and to simplify the handling of sparse data in hardware. In such cases, the acceleration of structured-sparse ML models is handled by sparse systolic tensor arrays. The increasing prevalence of ML in safety-critical systems requires enhancing the sparse tensor arrays with online error detection for managing random hardware failures. Algorithm-based fault tolerance has been proposed as a low-cost mechanism to check online the result of computations against random hardware failures. In this work, we address a key architectural challenge with structured-sparse tensor arrays: how to provide online error checking for a range of structured sparsity levels while maintaining high utilization of the hardware. Experimental results highlight the minimum hardware overhead incurred by the proposed checking logic and its error detection properties after injecting random hardware faults on sparse tensor arrays that execute layers of ResNet50 CNN.

Collaborative perception aims to mitigate the limitations of single-agent perception, such as occlusions, by facilitating data exchange among multiple agents. However, most current works consider a homogeneous scenario where all agents use identity sensors and perception models. In reality, heterogeneous agent types may continually emerge and inevitably face a domain gap when collaborating with existing agents. In this paper, we introduce a new open heterogeneous problem: how to accommodate continually emerging new heterogeneous agent types into collaborative perception, while ensuring high perception performance and low integration cost? To address this problem, we propose HEterogeneous ALliance (HEAL), a novel extensible collaborative perception framework. HEAL first establishes a unified feature space with initial agents via a novel multi-scale foreground-aware Pyramid Fusion network. When heterogeneous new agents emerge with previously unseen modalities or models, we align them to the established unified space with an innovative backward alignment. This step only involves individual training on the new agent type, thus presenting extremely low training costs and high extensibility. To enrich agents' data heterogeneity, we bring OPV2V-H, a new large-scale dataset with more diverse sensor types. Extensive experiments on OPV2V-H and DAIR-V2X datasets show that HEAL surpasses SOTA methods in performance while reducing the training parameters by 91.5% when integrating 3 new agent types. We further implement a comprehensive codebase at: //github.com/yifanlu0227/HEAL

Independent parallel q-ary symmetric channels are a suitable transmission model for several applications. The proposed weighted-Hamming metric is tailored to this setting and enables optimal decoding performance. We show that some weighted-Hamming-metric codes exhibit the unusual property that all errors beyond half the minimum distance can be corrected. Nevertheless, a tight relation between the error-correction capability of a code and its minimum distance can be established. Generalizing their Hamming-metric counterparts, upper and lower bounds on the cardinality of a code with a given weighted-Hamming distance are obtained. Finally, we propose a simple code construction with optimal minimum distance for specific parameters.

Recent contrastive representation learning methods rely on estimating mutual information (MI) between multiple views of an underlying context. E.g., we can derive multiple views of a given image by applying data augmentation, or we can split a sequence into views comprising the past and future of some step in the sequence. Contrastive lower bounds on MI are easy to optimize, but have a strong underestimation bias when estimating large amounts of MI. We propose decomposing the full MI estimation problem into a sum of smaller estimation problems by splitting one of the views into progressively more informed subviews and by applying the chain rule on MI between the decomposed views. This expression contains a sum of unconditional and conditional MI terms, each measuring modest chunks of the total MI, which facilitates approximation via contrastive bounds. To maximize the sum, we formulate a contrastive lower bound on the conditional MI which can be approximated efficiently. We refer to our general approach as Decomposed Estimation of Mutual Information (DEMI). We show that DEMI can capture a larger amount of MI than standard non-decomposed contrastive bounds in a synthetic setting, and learns better representations in a vision domain and for dialogue generation.

We describe the new field of mathematical analysis of deep learning. This field emerged around a list of research questions that were not answered within the classical framework of learning theory. These questions concern: the outstanding generalization power of overparametrized neural networks, the role of depth in deep architectures, the apparent absence of the curse of dimensionality, the surprisingly successful optimization performance despite the non-convexity of the problem, understanding what features are learned, why deep architectures perform exceptionally well in physical problems, and which fine aspects of an architecture affect the behavior of a learning task in which way. We present an overview of modern approaches that yield partial answers to these questions. For selected approaches, we describe the main ideas in more detail.

Modern neural network training relies heavily on data augmentation for improved generalization. After the initial success of label-preserving augmentations, there has been a recent surge of interest in label-perturbing approaches, which combine features and labels across training samples to smooth the learned decision surface. In this paper, we propose a new augmentation method that leverages the first and second moments extracted and re-injected by feature normalization. We replace the moments of the learned features of one training image by those of another, and also interpolate the target labels. As our approach is fast, operates entirely in feature space, and mixes different signals than prior methods, one can effectively combine it with existing augmentation methods. We demonstrate its efficacy across benchmark data sets in computer vision, speech, and natural language processing, where it consistently improves the generalization performance of highly competitive baseline networks.

Graph neural networks (GNNs) are a popular class of machine learning models whose major advantage is their ability to incorporate a sparse and discrete dependency structure between data points. Unfortunately, GNNs can only be used when such a graph-structure is available. In practice, however, real-world graphs are often noisy and incomplete or might not be available at all. With this work, we propose to jointly learn the graph structure and the parameters of graph convolutional networks (GCNs) by approximately solving a bilevel program that learns a discrete probability distribution on the edges of the graph. This allows one to apply GCNs not only in scenarios where the given graph is incomplete or corrupted but also in those where a graph is not available. We conduct a series of experiments that analyze the behavior of the proposed method and demonstrate that it outperforms related methods by a significant margin.
