There is a constant need for high-performing and computationally efficient neural network models for image super-resolution: computationally efficient models can be used via low-capacity devices and reduce carbon footprints. One way to obtain such models is to compress models, e.g. quantization. Another way is a neural architecture search that automatically discovers new, more efficient solutions. We propose a novel quantization-aware procedure, the QuantNAS that combines pros of these two approaches. To make QuantNAS work, the procedure looks for quantization-friendly super-resolution models. The approach utilizes entropy regularization, quantization noise, and Adaptive Deviation for Quantization (ADQ) module to enhance the search procedure. The entropy regularization technique prioritizes a single operation within each block of the search space. Adding quantization noise to parameters and activations approximates model degradation after quantization, resulting in a more quantization-friendly architectures. ADQ helps to alleviate problems caused by Batch Norm blocks in super-resolution models. Our experimental results show that the proposed approximations are better for search procedure than direct model quantization. QuantNAS discovers architectures with better PSNR/BitOps trade-off than uniform or mixed precision quantization of fixed architectures. We showcase the effectiveness of our method through its application to two search spaces inspired by the state-of-the-art SR models and RFDN. Thus, anyone can design a proper search space based on an existing architecture and apply our method to obtain better quality and efficiency. The proposed procedure is 30\% faster than direct weight quantization and is more stable.

In the context of survival analysis, data-driven neural network-based methods have been developed to model complex covariate effects. While these methods may provide better predictive performance than regression-based approaches, not all can model time-varying interactions and complex baseline hazards. To address this, we propose Case-Base Neural Networks (CBNNs) as a new approach that combines the case-base sampling framework with flexible neural network architectures. Using a novel sampling scheme and data augmentation to naturally account for censoring, we construct a feed-forward neural network that includes time as an input. CBNNs predict the probability of an event occurring at a given moment to estimate the full hazard function. We compare the performance of CBNNs to regression and neural network-based survival methods in a simulation and three case studies using two time-dependent metrics. First, we examine performance on a simulation involving a complex baseline hazard and time-varying interactions to assess all methods, with CBNN outperforming competitors. Then, we apply all methods to three real data applications, with CBNNs outperforming the competing models in two studies and showing similar performance in the third. Our results highlight the benefit of combining case-base sampling with deep learning to provide a simple and flexible framework for data-driven modeling of single event survival outcomes that estimates time-varying effects and a complex baseline hazard by design.

In this paper, we present a hybrid neural-network and MAC (Marker-And-Cell) scheme for solving Stokes equations with singular forces on an embedded interface in regular domains. As known, the solution variables (the pressure and velocity) exhibit non-smooth behaviors across the interface so extra discretization efforts must be paid near the interface in order to have small order of local truncation errors in finite difference schemes. The present hybrid approach avoids such additional difficulty. It combines the expressive power of neural networks with the convergence of finite difference schemes to ease the code implementation and to achieve good accuracy at the same time. The key idea is to decompose the solution into singular and regular parts. The neural network learning machinery incorporating the given jump conditions finds the singular part solution, while the standard MAC scheme is used to obtain the regular part solution with associated boundary conditions. The two- and three-dimensional numerical results show that the present hybrid method converges with second-order accuracy for the velocity and first-order accuracy for the pressure, and it is comparable with the traditional immersed interface method in literature.

We consider a logic with truth values in the unit interval and which uses aggregation functions instead of quantifiers, and we describe a general approach to asymptotic elimination of aggregation functions and, indirectly, of asymptotic elimination of Mostowski style generalized quantifiers, since such can be expressed by using aggregation functions. The notion of ``local continuity'' of an aggregation function, which we make precise in two (related) ways, plays a central role in this approach.

In this work, we provide a simulation algorithm to simulate from a (multivariate) characteristic function, which is only accessible in a black-box format. We construct a generative neural network, whose loss function exploits a specific representation of the Maximum-Mean-Discrepancy metric to directly incorporate the targeted characteristic function. The construction is universal in the sense that it is independent of the dimension and that it does not require any assumptions on the given characteristic function. Furthermore, finite sample guarantees on the approximation quality in terms of the Maximum-Mean Discrepancy metric are derived. The method is illustrated in a short simulation study.

Dynamic crack branching in unsaturated porous media holds significant relevance in various fields, including geotechnical engineering, geosciences, and petroleum engineering. This article presents a numerical investigation into dynamic crack branching in unsaturated porous media using a recently developed coupled micro-periporomechanics paradigm. This paradigm extends the periporomechanics model by incorporating the micro-rotation of the solid skeleton. Within this framework, each material point is equipped with three degrees of freedom: displacement, micro-rotation, and fluid pressure. Consistent with the Cosserat continuum theory, a length scale associated with the micro-rotation of material points is inherently integrated into the model. This study encompasses several key aspects: (1) Validation of the coupled micro-periporomechanics paradigm for effectively modeling crack branching in deformable porous media, (2) Examination of the transition from a single branch to multiple branches in porous media under drained conditions, (3) Simulation of single crack branching in unsaturated porous media under dynamic loading conditions, and (4) Investigation of multiple crack branching in unsaturated porous media under dynamic loading conditions. The numerical results obtained in this study are systematically analyzed to elucidate the factors that influence dynamic crack branching in porous media subjected to dynamic loading. Furthermore, the comprehensive numerical findings underscore the efficacy and robustness of the coupled micro-periporomechanics paradigm in accurately modeling dynamic crack branching in variably saturated porous media.

A general theory of efficient estimation for ergodic diffusion processes sampled at high frequency with an infinite time horizon is presented. High frequency sampling is common in many applications, with finance as a prominent example. The theory is formulated in term of approximate martingale estimating functions and covers a large class of estimators including most of the previously proposed estimators for diffusion processes. Easily checked conditions ensuring that an estimating function is an approximate martingale are derived, and general conditions ensuring consistency and asymptotic normality of estimators are given. Most importantly, simple conditions are given that ensure rate optimality and efficiency. Rate optimal estimators of parameters in the diffusion coefficient converge faster than estimators of drift coefficient parameters because they take advantage of the information in the quadratic variation. The conditions facilitate the choice among the multitude of estimators that have been proposed for diffusion models. Optimal martingale estimating functions in the sense of Godambe and Heyde and their high frequency approximations are, under weak conditions, shown to satisfy the conditions for rate optimality and efficiency. This provides a natural feasible method of constructing explicit rate optimal and efficient estimating functions by solving a linear equation.

Utilizing massive web-scale datasets has led to unprecedented performance gains in machine learning models, but also imposes outlandish compute requirements for their training. In order to improve training and data efficiency, we here push the limits of pruning large-scale multimodal datasets for training CLIP-style models. Today's most effective pruning method on ImageNet clusters data samples into separate concepts according to their embedding and prunes away the most prototypical samples. We scale this approach to LAION and improve it by noting that the pruning rate should be concept-specific and adapted to the complexity of the concept. Using a simple and intuitive complexity measure, we are able to reduce the training cost to a quarter of regular training. By filtering from the LAION dataset, we find that training on a smaller set of high-quality data can lead to higher performance with significantly lower training costs. More specifically, we are able to outperform the LAION-trained OpenCLIP-ViT-B32 model on ImageNet zero-shot accuracy by 1.1p.p. while only using 27.7% of the data and training compute. Despite a strong reduction in training cost, we also see improvements on ImageNet dist. shifts, retrieval tasks and VTAB. On the DataComp Medium benchmark, we achieve a new state-of-the-art ImageNet zero-shot accuracy and a competitive average zero-shot accuracy on 38 evaluation tasks.

Dynamic graph embeddings, inductive and incremental learning facilitate predictive tasks such as node classification and link prediction. However, predicting the structure of a graph at a future time step from a time series of graphs, allowing for new nodes has not gained much attention. In this paper, we present such an approach. We use time series methods to predict the node degree at future time points and combine it with flux balance analysis -- a linear programming method used in biochemistry -- to obtain the structure of future graphs. Furthermore, we explore the predictive graph distribution for different parameter values. We evaluate this method using synthetic and real datasets and demonstrate its utility and applicability.

We hypothesize that due to the greedy nature of learning in multi-modal deep neural networks, these models tend to rely on just one modality while under-fitting the other modalities. Such behavior is counter-intuitive and hurts the models' generalization, as we observe empirically. To estimate the model's dependence on each modality, we compute the gain on the accuracy when the model has access to it in addition to another modality. We refer to this gain as the conditional utilization rate. In the experiments, we consistently observe an imbalance in conditional utilization rates between modalities, across multiple tasks and architectures. Since conditional utilization rate cannot be computed efficiently during training, we introduce a proxy for it based on the pace at which the model learns from each modality, which we refer to as the conditional learning speed. We propose an algorithm to balance the conditional learning speeds between modalities during training and demonstrate that it indeed addresses the issue of greedy learning. The proposed algorithm improves the model's generalization on three datasets: Colored MNIST, Princeton ModelNet40, and NVIDIA Dynamic Hand Gesture.
