Video colorization, aiming at obtaining colorful and plausible results from grayish frames, has aroused a lot of interest recently. Nevertheless, how to maintain temporal consistency while keeping the quality of colorized results remains challenging. To tackle the above problems, we present a Histogram-guided Video Colorization with Spatial-Temporal connection structure (named ST-HVC). To fully exploit the chroma and motion information, the joint flow and histogram module is tailored to integrate the histogram and flow features. To manage the blurred and artifact, we design a combination scheme attending to temporal detail and flow feature combination. We further recombine the histogram, flow and sharpness features via a U-shape network. Extensive comparisons are conducted with several state-of-the-art image and video-based methods, demonstrating that the developed method achieves excellent performance both quantitatively and qualitatively in two video datasets.

Recently, Transformer-based models have shown remarkable performance in long-term time series forecasting (LTSF) tasks due to their ability to model long-term dependencies. However, the validity of Transformers for LTSF tasks remains debatable, particularly since recent work has shown that simple linear models can outperform numerous Transformer-based approaches. This suggests that there are limitations to the application of Transformer in LTSF. Therefore, this paper investigates three key issues when applying Transformer to LTSF: temporal continuity, information density, and multi-channel relationships. Accordingly, we propose three innovative solutions, including Placeholder Enhancement Technique (PET), Long Sub-sequence Division (LSD), and Multi-channel Separation and Interaction (MSI), which together form a novel model called PETformer. These three key designs introduce prior biases suitable for LTSF tasks. Extensive experiments have demonstrated that PETformer achieves state-of-the-art (SOTA) performance on eight commonly used public datasets for LTSF, outperforming all other models currently available. This demonstrates that Transformer still possesses powerful capabilities in LTSF.

Recent interactive segmentation methods iteratively take source image, user guidance and previously predicted mask as the input without considering the invariant nature of the source image. As a result, extracting features from the source image is repeated in each interaction, resulting in substantial computational redundancy. In this work, we propose the Feature Decoupling-Recycling Network (FDRN), which decouples the modeling components based on their intrinsic discrepancies and then recycles components for each user interaction. Thus, the efficiency of the whole interactive process can be significantly improved. To be specific, we apply the Decoupling-Recycling strategy from three perspectives to address three types of discrepancies, respectively. First, our model decouples the learning of source image semantics from the encoding of user guidance to process two types of input domains separately. Second, FDRN decouples high-level and low-level features from stratified semantic representations to enhance feature learning. Third, during the encoding of user guidance, current user guidance is decoupled from historical guidance to highlight the effect of current user guidance. We conduct extensive experiments on 6 datasets from different domains and modalities, which demonstrate the following merits of our model: 1) superior efficiency than other methods, particularly advantageous in challenging scenarios requiring long-term interactions (up to 4.25x faster), while achieving favorable segmentation performance; 2) strong applicability to various methods serving as a universal enhancement technique; 3) well cross-task generalizability, e.g., to medical image segmentation, and robustness against misleading user guidance.

Multimedia recommendation has received much attention in recent years. It models user preferences based on both behavior information and item multimodal information. Though current GCN-based methods achieve notable success, they suffer from two limitations: (1) Modality noise contamination to the item representations. Existing methods often mix modality features and behavior features in a single view (e.g., user-item view) for propagation, the noise in the modality features may be amplified and coupled with behavior features. In the end, it leads to poor feature discriminability; (2) Incomplete user preference modeling caused by equal treatment of modality features. Users often exhibit distinct modality preferences when purchasing different items. Equally fusing each modality feature ignores the relative importance among different modalities, leading to the suboptimal user preference modeling. To tackle the above issues, we propose a novel Multi-View Graph Convolutional Network for the multimedia recommendation. Specifically, to avoid modality noise contamination, the modality features are first purified with the aid of item behavior information. Then, the purified modality features of items and behavior features are enriched in separate views, including the user-item view and the item-item view. In this way, the distinguishability of features is enhanced. Meanwhile, a behavior-aware fuser is designed to comprehensively model user preferences by adaptively learning the relative importance of different modality features. Furthermore, we equip the fuser with a self-supervised auxiliary task. This task is expected to maximize the mutual information between the fused multimodal features and behavior features, so as to capture complementary and supplementary preference information simultaneously. Extensive experiments on three public datasets demonstrate the effectiveness of our methods.

Multimodal recommendation exploits the rich multimodal information associated with users or items to enhance the representation learning for better performance. In these methods, end-to-end feature extractors (e.g., shallow/deep neural networks) are often adopted to tailor the generic multimodal features that are extracted from raw data by pre-trained models for recommendation. However, compact extractors, such as shallow neural networks, may find it challenging to extract effective information from complex and high-dimensional generic modality features. Conversely, DNN-based extractors may encounter the data sparsity problem in recommendation. To address this problem, we propose a novel model-agnostic approach called Semantic-guided Feature Distillation (SGFD), which employs a teacher-student framework to extract feature for multimodal recommendation. The teacher model first extracts rich modality features from the generic modality feature by considering both the semantic information of items and the complementary information of multiple modalities. SGFD then utilizes response-based and feature-based distillation loss to effectively transfer the knowledge encoded in the teacher model to the student model. To evaluate the effectiveness of our SGFD, we integrate SGFD into three backbone multimodal recommendation models. Extensive experiments on three public real-world datasets demonstrate that SGFD-enhanced models can achieve substantial improvement over their counterparts.

The current zero trust model adopted in System-on-Chip (SoC) design is vulnerable to various malicious entities, and modern SoC designs must incorporate various security policies to protect sensitive assets from unauthorized access. These policies involve complex interactions between multiple IP blocks, which poses challenges for SoC designers and security experts when implementing these policies and for system validators when ensuring compliance. Difficulties arise when upgrading policies, reusing IPs for systems targeting different security requirements, and the subsequent increase in design time and time-to-market. This paper proposes a generic and flexible framework, called DiSPEL, for enforcing security policies defined by the user represented in a formal way for any bus-based SoC design. It employs a distributed deployment strategy while ensuring trusted bus operations despite the presence of untrusted IPs. It relies on incorporating a dedicated, centralized module capable of implementing diverse security policies involving bus-level interactions while generating the necessary logic and appending in the bus-level wrapper for IP-level policies. The proposed architecture is generic and independent of specific security policy types supporting both synthesizable and non-synthesizable solutions. The experimental results demonstrate its effectiveness and correctness in enforcing the security requirements and viability due to low overhead in terms of area, delay, and power consumption tested on open-source standard SoC benchmarks.

Parallel datasets are vital for performing and evaluating any kind of multilingual task. However, in the cases where one of the considered language pairs is a low-resource language, the existing top-down parallel data such as corpora are lacking in both tally and quality due to the dearth of human annotation. Therefore, for low-resource languages, it is more feasible to move in the bottom-up direction where finer granular pairs such as dictionary datasets are developed first. They may then be used for mid-level tasks such as supervised multilingual word embedding alignment. These in turn can later guide higher-level tasks in the order of aligning sentence or paragraph text corpora used for Machine Translation (MT). Even though more approachable than generating and aligning a massive corpus for a low-resource language, for the same reason of apathy from larger research entities, even these finer granular data sets are lacking for some low-resource languages. We have observed that there is no free and open dictionary data set for the low-resource language, Sinhala. Thus, in this work, we introduce three parallel English-Sinhala word dictionaries (En-Si-dict-large, En-Si-dict-filtered, En-Si-dict-FastText) which help in multilingual Natural Language Processing (NLP) tasks related to English and Sinhala languages. In this paper, we explain the dataset creation pipeline as well as the experimental results of the tests we have carried out to verify the quality of the data sets. The data sets and the related scripts are available at //github.com/kasunw22/sinhala-para-dict.

The paper presents a strategy for robotic exploration problems using Space-Filling curves (SFC). The region of interest is first tessellated, and the tiles/cells are connected using some SFC. A robot follows the SFC to explore the entire area. However, there could be obstacles that block the systematic movement of the robot. We overcome this problem by providing an evading technique that avoids the blocked tiles while ensuring all the free ones are visited at least once. The proposed strategy is online, implying that prior knowledge of the obstacles is not mandatory. It works for all SFCs, but for the sake of demonstration, we use Hilbert curve. We present the completeness of the algorithm and discuss its desirable properties with examples. We also address the non-uniform coverage problem using our strategy.

Recent advances in maximizing mutual information (MI) between the source and target have demonstrated its effectiveness in text generation. However, previous works paid little attention to modeling the backward network of MI (i.e., dependency from the target to the source), which is crucial to the tightness of the variational information maximization lower bound. In this paper, we propose Adversarial Mutual Information (AMI): a text generation framework which is formed as a novel saddle point (min-max) optimization aiming to identify joint interactions between the source and target. Within this framework, the forward and backward networks are able to iteratively promote or demote each other's generated instances by comparing the real and synthetic data distributions. We also develop a latent noise sampling strategy that leverages random variations at the high-level semantic space to enhance the long term dependency in the generation process. Extensive experiments based on different text generation tasks demonstrate that the proposed AMI framework can significantly outperform several strong baselines, and we also show that AMI has potential to lead to a tighter lower bound of maximum mutual information for the variational information maximization problem.

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.
