Spatially-coupled (SC) codes is a class of convolutional LDPC codes that has been well investigated in classical coding theory thanks to their high performance and compatibility with low-latency decoders. We describe toric codes as quantum counterparts of classical two-dimensional spatially-coupled (2D-SC) codes, and introduce spatially-coupled quantum LDPC (SC-QLDPC) codes as a generalization. We use the convolutional structure to represent the parity check matrix of a 2D-SC code as a polynomial in two indeterminates, and derive an algebraic condition that is both necessary and sufficient for a 2D-SC code to be a stabilizer code. This algebraic framework facilitates the construction of new code families. While not the focus of this paper, we note that small memory facilitates physical connectivity of qubits, and it enables local encoding and low-latency windowed decoding. In this paper, we use the algebraic framework to optimize short cycles in the Tanner graph of 2D-SC HGP codes that arise from short cycles in either component code. While prior work focuses on QLDPC codes with rate less than 1/10, we construct 2D-SC HGP codes with small memory, higher rates (about 1/3), and superior thresholds.

Diffusion model (DM) has achieved SOTA performance by modeling the image synthesis process into a sequential application of a denoising network. However, different from image synthesis, image restoration (IR) has a strong constraint to generate results in accordance with ground-truth. Thus, for IR, traditional DMs running massive iterations on a large model to estimate whole images or feature maps is inefficient. To address this issue, we propose an efficient DM for IR (DiffIR), which consists of a compact IR prior extraction network (CPEN), dynamic IR transformer (DIRformer), and denoising network. Specifically, DiffIR has two training stages: pretraining and training DM. In pretraining, we input ground-truth images into CPEN$_{S1}$ to capture a compact IR prior representation (IPR) to guide DIRformer. In the second stage, we train the DM to directly estimate the same IRP as pretrained CPEN$_{S1}$ only using LQ images. We observe that since the IPR is only a compact vector, DiffIR can use fewer iterations than traditional DM to obtain accurate estimations and generate more stable and realistic results. Since the iterations are few, our DiffIR can adopt a joint optimization of CPEN$_{S2}$, DIRformer, and denoising network, which can further reduce the estimation error influence. We conduct extensive experiments on several IR tasks and achieve SOTA performance while consuming less computational costs. Code is available at \url{//github.com/Zj-BinXia/DiffIR}.

We propose an agglomerative Transformer (AGER) that enables Transformer-based human-object interaction (HOI) detectors to flexibly exploit extra instance-level cues in a single-stage and end-to-end manner for the first time. AGER acquires instance tokens by dynamically clustering patch tokens and aligning cluster centers to instances with textual guidance, thus enjoying two benefits: 1) Integrality: each instance token is encouraged to contain all discriminative feature regions of an instance, which demonstrates a significant improvement in the extraction of different instance-level cues and subsequently leads to a new state-of-the-art performance of HOI detection with 36.75 mAP on HICO-Det. 2) Efficiency: the dynamical clustering mechanism allows AGER to generate instance tokens jointly with the feature learning of the Transformer encoder, eliminating the need of an additional object detector or instance decoder in prior methods, thus allowing the extraction of desirable extra cues for HOI detection in a single-stage and end-to-end pipeline. Concretely, AGER reduces GFLOPs by 8.5% and improves FPS by 36%, even compared to a vanilla DETR-like pipeline without extra cue extraction.

Recently, intermittent computing (IC) has received tremendous attention due to its high potential in perpetual sensing for Internet-of-Things (IoT). By harvesting ambient energy, battery-free devices can perform sensing intermittently without maintenance, thus significantly improving IoT sustainability. To build a practical intermittently-powered sensing system, efficient routing across battery-free devices for data delivery is essential. However, the intermittency of these devices brings new challenges, rendering existing routing protocols inapplicable. In this paper, we propose RICS, the first-of-its-kind routing scheme tailored for intermittently-powered sensing systems. RICS features two major designs, with the goal of achieving low-latency data delivery on a network built with battery-free devices. First, RICS incorporates a fast topology construction protocol for each IC node to establish a path towards the sink node with the least hop count. Second, RICS employs a low-latency message forwarding protocol, which incorporates an efficient synchronization mechanism and a novel technique called pendulum-sync to avoid the time-consuming repeated node synchronization. Our evaluation based on an implementation in OMNeT++ and comprehensive experiments with varying system settings show that RICS can achieve orders of magnitude latency reduction in data delivery compared with the baselines.

In a traditional Gaussian graphical model, data homogeneity is routinely assumed with no extra variables affecting the conditional independence. In modern genomic datasets, there is an abundance of auxiliary information, which often gets under-utilized in determining the joint dependency structure. In this article, we consider a Bayesian approach to model undirected graphs underlying heterogeneous multivariate observations with additional assistance from covariates. Building on product partition models, we propose a novel covariate-dependent Gaussian graphical model that allows graphs to vary with covariates so that observations whose covariates are similar share a similar undirected graph. To efficiently embed Gaussian graphical models into our proposed framework, we explore both Gaussian likelihood and pseudo-likelihood functions. For Gaussian likelihood, a G-Wishart distribution is used as a natural conjugate prior, and for the pseudo-likelihood, a product of Gaussian-conditionals is used. Moreover, the proposed model has large prior support and is flexible to approximate any $\nu$-H\"{o}lder conditional variance-covariance matrices with $\nu\in(0,1]$. We further show that based on the theory of fractional likelihood, the rate of posterior contraction is minimax optimal assuming the true density to be a Gaussian mixture with a known number of components. The efficacy of the approach is demonstrated via simulation studies and an analysis of a protein network for a breast cancer dataset assisted by mRNA gene expression as covariates.

E-graphs are a data structure that compactly represents equivalent expressions. They are constructed via the repeated application of rewrite rules. Often in practical applications, conditional rewrite rules are crucial, but their application requires the detection - at the time the e-graph is being built - that a condition is valid in the domain of application. Detecting condition validity amounts to proving a property of the program. Abstract interpretation is a general method to learn such properties, traditionally used in static analysis tools. We demonstrate that abstract interpretation and e-graph analysis naturally reinforce each other through a tight integration because (i) the e-graph clustering of equivalent expressions induces natural precision refinement of abstractions and (ii) precise abstractions allow the application of deeper rewrite rules (and hence potentially even greater precision). We develop the theory behind this intuition and present an exemplar interval arithmetic implementation, which we apply to the FPBench suite.

The problem of packing smaller objects within a larger object has been of interest since decades. In these problems, in addition to the requirement that the smaller objects must lie completely inside the larger objects, they are expected to not overlap or have minimum overlap with each other. Due to this, the problem of packing turns out to be a non-convex problem, obtaining whose optimal solution is challenging. As such, several heuristic approaches have been used for obtaining sub-optimal solutions in general, and provably optimal solutions for some special instances. In this paper, we propose a novel encoder-decoder architecture consisting of an encoder block, a perturbation block and a decoder block, for packing identical circles within a larger circle. In our approach, the encoder takes the index of a circle to be packed as an input and outputs its center through a normalization layer, the perturbation layer adds controlled perturbations to the center, ensuring that it does not deviate beyond the radius of the smaller circle to be packed, and the decoder takes the perturbed center as input and estimates the index of the intended circle for packing. We parameterize the encoder and decoder by a neural network and optimize it to reduce an error between the decoder's estimated index and the actual index of the circle provided as input to the encoder. The proposed approach can be generalized to pack objects of higher dimensions and different shapes by carefully choosing normalization and perturbation layers. The approach gives a sub-optimal solution and is able to pack smaller objects within a larger object with competitive performance with respect to classical methods.

The essence of multivariate sequential learning is all about how to extract dependencies in data. These data sets, such as hourly medical records in intensive care units and multi-frequency phonetic time series, often time exhibit not only strong serial dependencies in the individual components (the "marginal" memory) but also non-negligible memories in the cross-sectional dependencies (the "joint" memory). Because of the multivariate complexity in the evolution of the joint distribution that underlies the data generating process, we take a data-driven approach and construct a novel recurrent network architecture, termed Memory-Gated Recurrent Networks (mGRN), with gates explicitly regulating two distinct types of memories: the marginal memory and the joint memory. Through a combination of comprehensive simulation studies and empirical experiments on a range of public datasets, we show that our proposed mGRN architecture consistently outperforms state-of-the-art architectures targeting multivariate time series.

External knowledge is often useful for natural language understanding tasks. We introduce a contextual text representation model called Conceptual-Contextual (CC) embeddings, which incorporates structured knowledge into text representations. Unlike entity embedding methods, our approach encodes a knowledge graph into a context model. CC embeddings can be easily reused for a wide range of tasks just like pre-trained language models. Our model effectively encodes the huge UMLS database by leveraging semantic generalizability. Experiments on electronic health records (EHRs) and medical text processing benchmarks showed our model gives a major boost to the performance of supervised medical NLP tasks.
