Deformable Object Manipulation (DOM) is an important field of research as it contributes to practical tasks such as automatic cloth handling, cable routing, surgical operation, etc. Perception is considered one of the major challenges in DOM due to the complex dynamics and high degree of freedom of deformable objects. In this paper, we develop a novel image-processing algorithm based on Gabor filters to extract useful features from cloth, and based on this, devise a strategy for cloth flattening tasks. We also evaluate the overall framework experimentally and compare it with three human operators. The results show that our algorithm can determine the direction of wrinkles on the cloth accurately in simulation as well as in real robot experiments. Furthermore, our dewrinkling strategy compares favorably to baseline methods. The experiment video is available on //sites.google.com/view/robotic-fabric-flattening/home

We present the first experiments on Native Language Identification (NLI) using LLMs such as GPT-4. NLI is the task of predicting a writer's first language by analyzing their writings in a second language, and is used in second language acquisition and forensic linguistics. Our results show that GPT models are proficient at NLI classification, with GPT-4 setting a new performance record of 91.7% on the benchmark TOEFL11 test set in a zero-shot setting. We also show that unlike previous fully-supervised settings, LLMs can perform NLI without being limited to a set of known classes, which has practical implications for real-world applications. Finally, we also show that LLMs can provide justification for their choices, providing reasoning based on spelling errors, syntactic patterns, and usage of directly translated linguistic patterns.

Deep learning succeeds by doing hierarchical feature learning, yet tuning Hyper-Parameters (HP) such as initialization scales, learning rates etc., only give indirect control over this behavior. In this paper, we propose the alignment between the feature updates and the backward pass as a key notion to predict, measure and control feature learning. On the one hand, we show that when alignment holds, the magnitude of feature updates after one SGD step is related to the magnitude of the forward and backward passes by a simple and general formula. This leads to techniques to automatically adjust HPs (initialization scales and learning rates) at initialization and throughout training to attain a desired feature learning behavior. On the other hand, we show that, at random initialization, this alignment is determined by the spectrum of a certain kernel, and that well-conditioned layer-to-layer Jacobians (aka dynamical isometry) implies alignment. Finally, we investigate ReLU MLPs and ResNets in the large width-then-depth limit. Combining hints from random matrix theory and numerical experiments, we show that (i) in MLP with iid initializations, alignment degenerates with depth, making it impossible to start training, and that (ii) in ResNets, the branch scale $1/\sqrt{\text{depth}}$ is the only one maintaining non-trivial alignment at infinite depth.

Adaptive importance sampling (AIS) methods provide a useful alternative to Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) algorithms for performing inference of intractable distributions. Population Monte Carlo (PMC) algorithms constitute a family of AIS approaches which adapt the proposal distributions iteratively to improve the approximation of the target distribution. Recent work in this area primarily focuses on ameliorating the proposal adaptation procedure for high-dimensional applications. However, most of the AIS algorithms use simple proposal distributions for sampling, which might be inadequate in exploring target distributions with intricate geometries. In this work, we construct expressive proposal distributions in the AIS framework using normalizing flow, an appealing approach for modeling complex distributions. We use an iterative parameter update rule to enhance the approximation of the target distribution. Numerical experiments show that in high-dimensional settings, the proposed algorithm offers significantly improved performance compared to the existing techniques.

Early action recognition is an important and challenging problem that enables the recognition of an action from a partially observed video stream where the activity is potentially unfinished or even not started. In this work, we propose a novel model that learns a prototypical representation of the full action for each class and uses it to regularize the architecture and the visual representations of the partial observations. Our model is very simple in design and also efficient. We decompose the video into short clips, where a visual encoder extracts features from each clip independently. Later, a decoder aggregates together in an online fashion features from all the clips for the final class prediction. During training, for each partial observation, the model is jointly trained to both predict the label as well as the action prototypical representation which acts as a regularizer. We evaluate our method on multiple challenging real-world datasets and outperform the current state-of-the-art by a significant margin. For example, on early recognition observing only the first 10% of each video, our method improves the SOTA by +2.23 Top-1 accuracy on Something-Something-v2, +3.55 on UCF-101, +3.68 on SSsub21, and +5.03 on EPIC-Kitchens-55, where prior work used either multi-modal inputs (e.g. optical-flow) or batched inference. Finally, we also present exhaustive ablation studies to motivate the design choices we made, as well as gather insights regarding what our model is learning semantically.

Federated Learning (FL) has emerged as a promising solution to perform deep learning on different data owners without exchanging raw data. However, non-IID data has been a key challenge in FL, which could significantly degrade the accuracy of the final model. Among different non-IID types, label skews have been challenging and common in image classification and other tasks. Instead of averaging the local models in most previous studies, we propose FedConcat, a simple and effective approach that concatenates these local models as the base of the global model to effectively aggregate the local knowledge. To reduce the size of the global model, we adopt the clustering technique to group the clients by their label distributions and collaboratively train a model inside each cluster. We theoretically analyze the advantage of concatenation over averaging by analyzing the information bottleneck of deep neural networks. Experimental results demonstrate that FedConcat achieves significantly higher accuracy than previous state-of-the-art FL methods in various heterogeneous label skew distribution settings and meanwhile has lower communication costs. Our code is publicly available.

The core component of an Industrial Control System (ICS) is often a Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) combined with various modules. In such systems, the communication between devices is mainly based on the Modbus protocol, which was developed by Modicon (now Schneider Electric) in 1979 as an application-level communication protocol and has become a de facto standard for ICS for the past 40 years. Modbus TCP is a variant of this protocol for communications over the TCP/IP network. However, the Modbus protocol was not designed with security in mind, and the use of plaintext transmissions during communication makes information easily accessible to the attackers, while the lack of an authentication mechanism gives any protocol-compliant device the ability to take over control. In this study, we use the eBPF technology to shift the process of protocol change to the lower level of the operating system, making the change transparent to the existing software, and enhancing the security of the Modbus TCP protocol without affecting the existing software ecosystem as much as possible.

Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) have shown promising results on a broad spectrum of applications. Most empirical studies of GNNs directly take the observed graph as input, assuming the observed structure perfectly depicts the accurate and complete relations between nodes. However, graphs in the real world are inevitably noisy or incomplete, which could even exacerbate the quality of graph representations. In this work, we propose a novel Variational Information Bottleneck guided Graph Structure Learning framework, namely VIB-GSL, in the perspective of information theory. VIB-GSL advances the Information Bottleneck (IB) principle for graph structure learning, providing a more elegant and universal framework for mining underlying task-relevant relations. VIB-GSL learns an informative and compressive graph structure to distill the actionable information for specific downstream tasks. VIB-GSL deduces a variational approximation for irregular graph data to form a tractable IB objective function, which facilitates training stability. Extensive experimental results demonstrate that the superior effectiveness and robustness of VIB-GSL.

Recently, contrastive learning (CL) has emerged as a successful method for unsupervised graph representation learning. Most graph CL methods first perform stochastic augmentation on the input graph to obtain two graph views and maximize the agreement of representations in the two views. Despite the prosperous development of graph CL methods, the design of graph augmentation schemes -- a crucial component in CL -- remains rarely explored. We argue that the data augmentation schemes should preserve intrinsic structures and attributes of graphs, which will force the model to learn representations that are insensitive to perturbation on unimportant nodes and edges. However, most existing methods adopt uniform data augmentation schemes, like uniformly dropping edges and uniformly shuffling features, leading to suboptimal performance. In this paper, we propose a novel graph contrastive representation learning method with adaptive augmentation that incorporates various priors for topological and semantic aspects of the graph. Specifically, on the topology level, we design augmentation schemes based on node centrality measures to highlight important connective structures. On the node attribute level, we corrupt node features by adding more noise to unimportant node features, to enforce the model to recognize underlying semantic information. We perform extensive experiments of node classification on a variety of real-world datasets. Experimental results demonstrate that our proposed method consistently outperforms existing state-of-the-art baselines and even surpasses some supervised counterparts, which validates the effectiveness of the proposed contrastive framework with adaptive augmentation.

It is important to detect anomalous inputs when deploying machine learning systems. The use of larger and more complex inputs in deep learning magnifies the difficulty of distinguishing between anomalous and in-distribution examples. At the same time, diverse image and text data are available in enormous quantities. We propose leveraging these data to improve deep anomaly detection by training anomaly detectors against an auxiliary dataset of outliers, an approach we call Outlier Exposure (OE). This enables anomaly detectors to generalize and detect unseen anomalies. In extensive experiments on natural language processing and small- and large-scale vision tasks, we find that Outlier Exposure significantly improves detection performance. We also observe that cutting-edge generative models trained on CIFAR-10 may assign higher likelihoods to SVHN images than to CIFAR-10 images; we use OE to mitigate this issue. We also analyze the flexibility and robustness of Outlier Exposure, and identify characteristics of the auxiliary dataset that improve performance.

Aspect based sentiment analysis (ABSA) can provide more detailed information than general sentiment analysis, because it aims to predict the sentiment polarities of the given aspects or entities in text. We summarize previous approaches into two subtasks: aspect-category sentiment analysis (ACSA) and aspect-term sentiment analysis (ATSA). Most previous approaches employ long short-term memory and attention mechanisms to predict the sentiment polarity of the concerned targets, which are often complicated and need more training time. We propose a model based on convolutional neural networks and gating mechanisms, which is more accurate and efficient. First, the novel Gated Tanh-ReLU Units can selectively output the sentiment features according to the given aspect or entity. The architecture is much simpler than attention layer used in the existing models. Second, the computations of our model could be easily parallelized during training, because convolutional layers do not have time dependency as in LSTM layers, and gating units also work independently. The experiments on SemEval datasets demonstrate the efficiency and effectiveness of our models.
