Reinforcement Learning (RL) provides a powerful framework for decision-making in complex environments. However, implementing RL in hardware-efficient and bio-inspired ways remains a challenge. This paper presents a novel Spiking Neural Network (SNN) architecture for solving RL problems with real-valued observations. The proposed model incorporates multi-layered event-based clustering, with the addition of Temporal Difference (TD)-error modulation and eligibility traces, building upon prior work. An ablation study confirms the significant impact of these components on the proposed model's performance. A tabular actor-critic algorithm with eligibility traces and a state-of-the-art Proximal Policy Optimization (PPO) algorithm are used as benchmarks. Our network consistently outperforms the tabular approach and successfully discovers stable control policies on classic RL environments: mountain car, cart-pole, and acrobot. The proposed model offers an appealing trade-off in terms of computational and hardware implementation requirements. The model does not require an external memory buffer nor a global error gradient computation, and synaptic updates occur online, driven by local learning rules and a broadcasted TD-error signal. Thus, this work contributes to the development of more hardware-efficient RL solutions.

Autonomous racing is becoming popular for academic and industry researchers as a test for general autonomous driving by pushing perception, planning, and control algorithms to their limits. While traditional control methods such as MPC are capable of generating an optimal control sequence at the edge of the vehicles physical controllability, these methods are sensitive to the accuracy of the modeling parameters. This paper presents TC-Driver, a RL approach for robust control in autonomous racing. In particular, the TC-Driver agent is conditioned by a trajectory generated by any arbitrary traditional high-level planner. The proposed TC-Driver addresses the tire parameter modeling inaccuracies by exploiting the heuristic nature of RL while leveraging the reliability of traditional planning methods in a hierarchical control structure. We train the agent under varying tire conditions, allowing it to generalize to different model parameters, aiming to increase the racing capabilities of the system in practice. The proposed RL method outperforms a non-learning-based MPC with a 2.7 lower crash ratio in a model mismatch setting, underlining robustness to parameter discrepancies. In addition, the average RL inference duration is 0.25 ms compared to the average MPC solving time of 11.5 ms, yielding a nearly 40-fold speedup, allowing for complex control deployment in computationally constrained devices. Lastly, we show that the frequently utilized end-to-end RL architecture, as a control policy directly learned from sensory input, is not well suited to model mismatch robustness nor track generalization. Our realistic simulations show that TC-Driver achieves a 6.7 and 3-fold lower crash ratio under model mismatch and track generalization settings, while simultaneously achieving lower lap times than an end-to-end approach, demonstrating the viability of TC-driver to robust autonomous racing.

Under a nonlinear regression model with univariate response an algorithm for the generation of sequential adaptive designs is studied. At each stage, the current design is augmented by adding $p$ design points where $p$ is the dimension of the parameter of the model. The augmenting $p$ points are such that, at the current parameter estimate, they constitute the locally D-optimal design within the set of all saturated designs. Two relevant subclasses of nonlinear regression models are focused on, which were considered in previous work of the authors on the adaptive Wynn algorithm: firstly, regression models satisfying the `saturated identifiability condition' and, secondly, generalized linear models. Adaptive least squares estimators and adaptive maximum likelihood estimators in the algorithm are shown to be strongly consistent and asymptotically normal, under appropriate assumptions. For both model classes, if a condition of `saturated D-optimality' is satisfied, the almost sure asymptotic D-optimality of the generated design sequence is implied by the strong consistency of the adaptive estimators employed by the algorithm. The condition states that there is a saturated design which is locally D-optimal at the true parameter point (in the class of all designs).

Over-the-Air (OTA) software updates are becoming essential for electric/electronic vehicle architectures in order to reduce recalls amid the increasing software bugs and vulnerabilities. Current OTA update architectures rely heavily on direct cellular repository-to-vehicle links, which makes the repository a communication bottleneck, and increases the cellular bandwidth utilization cost as well as the software download latency. In this paper, we introduce ScalOTA, an end-to-end scalable OTA software update architecture and secure protocol for modern vehicles. For the first time, we propose using a network of update stations, as part of Electric Vehicle charging stations, to boost the download speed through these stations, and reduce the cellular bandwidth overhead significantly. Our formalized OTA update protocol ensures proven end-to-end chain-of-trust including all stakeholders: manufacturer, suppliers, update stations, and all layers of in-vehicle Electric Control Units (ECUs). The empirical evaluation shows that ScalOTA reduces the bandwidth utilization and download latency up to an order of magnitude compared with current OTA update systems.

Software maintenance is an important part of a software system's life cycle. Maintenance tasks of existing software systems suffer from architecture information that is diverging over time (architectural drift). The Digital Architecture Twin (DArT) can support software maintenance by providing up-to-date architecture information. For this, the DArT gathers such information and co-evolves with a software system, enabling continuous reverse engineering. But the crucial link for stakeholders to retrieve this information is missing. To fill this gap, we contribute the Architecture Information Query Language (AIQL), which enables stakeholders to access up-to-date and tailored architecture information. We derived four application scenarios in the context of continuous reverse engineering. We showed that the AIQL provides the required functionality to formulate queries for the application scenarios and that the language scales for use with real-world software systems. In a user study, stakeholders agreed that the language is easy to understand and assessed its value to the specific stakeholder for the application scenarios.

Virtualized Radio Access Networks (vRANs) are fully configurable and can be implemented at a low cost over commodity platforms to enable network management flexibility. In this paper, a novel vRAN reconfiguration problem is formulated to jointly reconfigure the functional splits of the base stations (BSs), locations of the virtualized central units (vCUs) and distributed units (vDUs), their resources, and the routing for each BS data flow. The objective is to minimize the long-term total network operation cost while adapting to the varying traffic demands and resource availability. Testbed measurements are performed to study the relationship between the traffic demands and computing resources, which reveals high variance and depends on the platform and its load. Consequently, finding the perfect model of the underlying system is non-trivial. Therefore, to solve the proposed problem, a deep reinforcement learning (RL)-based framework is proposed and developed using model-free RL approaches. Moreover, the problem consists of multiple BSs sharing the same resources, which results in a multi-dimensional discrete action space and leads to a combinatorial number of possible actions. To overcome this curse of dimensionality, action branching architecture, which is an action decomposition method with a shared decision module followed by neural network is combined with Dueling Double Deep Q-network (D3QN) algorithm. Simulations are carried out using an O-RAN compliant model and real traces of the testbed. Our numerical results show that the proposed framework successfully learns the optimal policy that adaptively selects the vRAN configurations, where its learning convergence can be further expedited through transfer learning even in different vRAN systems. It offers significant cost savings by up to 59\% of a static benchmark, 35\% of DDPG with discretization, and 76\% of non-branching D3QN.

Existing knowledge graph (KG) embedding models have primarily focused on static KGs. However, real-world KGs do not remain static, but rather evolve and grow in tandem with the development of KG applications. Consequently, new facts and previously unseen entities and relations continually emerge, necessitating an embedding model that can quickly learn and transfer new knowledge through growth. Motivated by this, we delve into an expanding field of KG embedding in this paper, i.e., lifelong KG embedding. We consider knowledge transfer and retention of the learning on growing snapshots of a KG without having to learn embeddings from scratch. The proposed model includes a masked KG autoencoder for embedding learning and update, with an embedding transfer strategy to inject the learned knowledge into the new entity and relation embeddings, and an embedding regularization method to avoid catastrophic forgetting. To investigate the impacts of different aspects of KG growth, we construct four datasets to evaluate the performance of lifelong KG embedding. Experimental results show that the proposed model outperforms the state-of-the-art inductive and lifelong embedding baselines.

We describe ACE0, a lightweight platform for evaluating the suitability and viability of AI methods for behaviour discovery in multiagent simulations. Specifically, ACE0 was designed to explore AI methods for multi-agent simulations used in operations research studies related to new technologies such as autonomous aircraft. Simulation environments used in production are often high-fidelity, complex, require significant domain knowledge and as a result have high R&D costs. Minimal and lightweight simulation environments can help researchers and engineers evaluate the viability of new AI technologies for behaviour discovery in a more agile and potentially cost effective manner. In this paper we describe the motivation for the development of ACE0.We provide a technical overview of the system architecture, describe a case study of behaviour discovery in the aerospace domain, and provide a qualitative evaluation of the system. The evaluation includes a brief description of collaborative research projects with academic partners, exploring different AI behaviour discovery methods.

The time and effort involved in hand-designing deep neural networks is immense. This has prompted the development of Neural Architecture Search (NAS) techniques to automate this design. However, NAS algorithms tend to be slow and expensive; they need to train vast numbers of candidate networks to inform the search process. This could be alleviated if we could partially predict a network's trained accuracy from its initial state. In this work, we examine the overlap of activations between datapoints in untrained networks and motivate how this can give a measure which is usefully indicative of a network's trained performance. We incorporate this measure into a simple algorithm that allows us to search for powerful networks without any training in a matter of seconds on a single GPU, and verify its effectiveness on NAS-Bench-101, NAS-Bench-201, NATS-Bench, and Network Design Spaces. Our approach can be readily combined with more expensive search methods; we examine a simple adaptation of regularised evolutionary search. Code for reproducing our experiments is available at //github.com/BayesWatch/nas-without-training.

Most deep learning-based models for speech enhancement have mainly focused on estimating the magnitude of spectrogram while reusing the phase from noisy speech for reconstruction. This is due to the difficulty of estimating the phase of clean speech. To improve speech enhancement performance, we tackle the phase estimation problem in three ways. First, we propose Deep Complex U-Net, an advanced U-Net structured model incorporating well-defined complex-valued building blocks to deal with complex-valued spectrograms. Second, we propose a polar coordinate-wise complex-valued masking method to reflect the distribution of complex ideal ratio masks. Third, we define a novel loss function, weighted source-to-distortion ratio (wSDR) loss, which is designed to directly correlate with a quantitative evaluation measure. Our model was evaluated on a mixture of the Voice Bank corpus and DEMAND database, which has been widely used by many deep learning models for speech enhancement. Ablation experiments were conducted on the mixed dataset showing that all three proposed approaches are empirically valid. Experimental results show that the proposed method achieves state-of-the-art performance in all metrics, outperforming previous approaches by a large margin.
