This paper intends to apply the sample-average-approximation (SAA) scheme to solve a system of stochastic equations (SSE), which has many applications in a variety of fields. The SAA is an effective paradigm to address risks and uncertainty in stochastic models from the perspective of Monte Carlo principle. Nonetheless, a numerical conflict arises from the sample size of SAA when one has to make a tradeoff between the accuracy of solutions and the computational cost. To alleviate this issue, we incorporate a gradually reinforced SAA scheme into a differentiable homotopy method and develop a gradually reinforced sample-average-approximation (GRSAA) differentiable homotopy method in this paper. By introducing a series of continuously differentiable functions of the homotopy parameter $t$ ranging between zero and one, we establish a differentiable homotopy system, which is able to gradually increase the sample size of SAA as $t$ descends from one to zero. The set of solutions to the homotopy system contains an everywhere smooth path, which starts from an arbitrary point and ends at a solution to the SAA with any desired accuracy. The GRSAA differentiable homotopy method serves as a bridge to link the gradually reinforced SAA scheme and a differentiable homotopy method and retains the nice property of global convergence the homotopy method possesses while greatly reducing the computational cost for attaining a desired solution to the original SSE. Several numerical experiments further confirm the effectiveness and efficiency of the proposed method.

The notion of robustness in XAI refers to the observed variations in the explanation of the prediction of a learned model with respect to changes in the input leading to that prediction. Intuitively, if the input being explained is modified slightly subtly enough so as to not change the prediction of the model too much, then we would expect that the explanation provided for that new input does not change much either. We argue that a combination through discriminative averaging of ensembles weak learners explanations can improve the robustness of explanations in ensemble methods.This approach has been implemented and tested with post-hoc SHAP method and Random Forest ensemble with successful results. The improvements obtained have been measured quantitatively and some insights into the explicability robustness in ensemble methods are presented.

For the problem of inferring a Gaussian graphical model (GGM), this work explores the application of a recent approach from the multiple testing literature for graph inference. The main idea of the method by Rebafka et al. (2022) is to model the data by a latent variable model, the so-called noisy stochastic block model (NSBM), and then use the associated ${\ell}$-values to infer the graph. The inferred graph controls the false discovery rate, that means that the proportion of falsely declared edges does not exceed a user-defined nominal level. Here it is shown that any test statistic from the GGM literature can be used as input for the NSBM approach to perform GGM inference. To make the approach feasible in practice, a new, computationally efficient inference algorithm for the NSBM is developed relying on a greedy approach to maximize the integrated complete-data likelihood. Then an extensive numerical study illustrates that the NSBM approach outperforms the state of the art for any of the here considered GGM-test statistics. In particular in sparse settings and on real datasets a significant gain in power is observed.

In this paper, we consider the generation and utilization of helper data for physical unclonable functions (PUFs) that provide real-valued readout symbols. Compared to classical binary PUFs, more entropy can be extracted from each basic building block (PUF node), resulting in longer keys/fingerprints and/or a higher reliability. To this end, a coded modulation and signal shaping scheme that matches the (approximately) Gaussian distribution of the readout has to be employed. A new helper data scheme is proposed that works with any type of coded modulation/shaping scheme. Compared to the permutation scheme from the literature, less amount of helper data has to be generated and a higher reliability is achieved. Moreover, the recently proposed idea of a two-metric helper data scheme is generalized to coded modulation and a general S-metric scheme. It is shown how extra helper data can be generated to improve decodability. The proposed schemes are assessed by numerical simulations and by evaluation of measurement data. We compare multi-level codes using a new rate design strategy with bit-interleaved coded modulation and trellis shaping with a distribution matcher. By selecting a suitable design, the rate per PUF node that can be reliably extracted can be as high as 2~bit/node.

Entity abstract summarization aims to generate a coherent description of a given entity based on a set of relevant Internet documents. Pretrained language models (PLMs) have achieved significant success in this task, but they may suffer from hallucinations, i.e. generating non-factual information about the entity. To address this issue, we decompose the summary into two components: Facts that represent the factual information about the given entity, which PLMs are prone to fabricate; and Template that comprises generic content with designated slots for facts, which PLMs can generate competently. Based on the facts-template decomposition, we propose SlotSum, an explainable framework for entity abstract summarization. SlotSum first creates the template and then predicts the fact for each template slot based on the input documents. Benefiting from our facts-template decomposition, SlotSum can easily locate errors and further rectify hallucinated predictions with external knowledge. We construct a new dataset WikiFactSum to evaluate the performance of SlotSum. Experimental results demonstrate that SlotSum could generate summaries that are significantly more factual with credible external knowledge.

In this paper, we tackle two challenges in multimodal learning for visual recognition: 1) when missing-modality occurs either during training or testing in real-world situations; and 2) when the computation resources are not available to finetune on heavy transformer models. To this end, we propose to utilize prompt learning and mitigate the above two challenges together. Specifically, our modality-missing-aware prompts can be plugged into multimodal transformers to handle general missing-modality cases, while only requiring less than 1% learnable parameters compared to training the entire model. We further explore the effect of different prompt configurations and analyze the robustness to missing modality. Extensive experiments are conducted to show the effectiveness of our prompt learning framework that improves the performance under various missing-modality cases, while alleviating the requirement of heavy model re-training. Code is available.

Incompleteness is a common problem for existing knowledge graphs (KGs), and the completion of KG which aims to predict links between entities is challenging. Most existing KG completion methods only consider the direct relation between nodes and ignore the relation paths which contain useful information for link prediction. Recently, a few methods take relation paths into consideration but pay less attention to the order of relations in paths which is important for reasoning. In addition, these path-based models always ignore nonlinear contributions of path features for link prediction. To solve these problems, we propose a novel KG completion method named OPTransE. Instead of embedding both entities of a relation into the same latent space as in previous methods, we project the head entity and the tail entity of each relation into different spaces to guarantee the order of relations in the path. Meanwhile, we adopt a pooling strategy to extract nonlinear and complex features of different paths to further improve the performance of link prediction. Experimental results on two benchmark datasets show that the proposed model OPTransE performs better than state-of-the-art methods.

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.

Dynamic programming (DP) solves a variety of structured combinatorial problems by iteratively breaking them down into smaller subproblems. In spite of their versatility, DP algorithms are usually non-differentiable, which hampers their use as a layer in neural networks trained by backpropagation. To address this issue, we propose to smooth the max operator in the dynamic programming recursion, using a strongly convex regularizer. This allows to relax both the optimal value and solution of the original combinatorial problem, and turns a broad class of DP algorithms into differentiable operators. Theoretically, we provide a new probabilistic perspective on backpropagating through these DP operators, and relate them to inference in graphical models. We derive two particular instantiations of our framework, a smoothed Viterbi algorithm for sequence prediction and a smoothed DTW algorithm for time-series alignment. We showcase these instantiations on two structured prediction tasks and on structured and sparse attention for neural machine translation.

In this paper, we propose the joint learning attention and recurrent neural network (RNN) models for multi-label classification. While approaches based on the use of either model exist (e.g., for the task of image captioning), training such existing network architectures typically require pre-defined label sequences. For multi-label classification, it would be desirable to have a robust inference process, so that the prediction error would not propagate and thus affect the performance. Our proposed model uniquely integrates attention and Long Short Term Memory (LSTM) models, which not only addresses the above problem but also allows one to identify visual objects of interests with varying sizes without the prior knowledge of particular label ordering. More importantly, label co-occurrence information can be jointly exploited by our LSTM model. Finally, by advancing the technique of beam search, prediction of multiple labels can be efficiently achieved by our proposed network model.
