Neural Temporal Point Processes (TPPs) are the prevalent paradigm for modeling continuous-time event sequences, such as user activities on the web and financial transactions. In real-world applications, event data is typically received in a \emph{streaming} manner, where the distribution of patterns may shift over time. Additionally, \emph{privacy and memory constraints} are commonly observed in practical scenarios, further compounding the challenges. Therefore, the continuous monitoring of a TPP to learn the streaming event sequence is an important yet under-explored problem. Our work paper addresses this challenge by adopting Continual Learning (CL), which makes the model capable of continuously learning a sequence of tasks without catastrophic forgetting under realistic constraints. Correspondingly, we propose a simple yet effective framework, PromptTPP\footnote{Our code is available at {\small \url{ //github.com/yanyanSann/PromptTPP}}}, by integrating the base TPP with a continuous-time retrieval prompt pool. The prompts, small learnable parameters, are stored in a memory space and jointly optimized with the base TPP, ensuring that the model learns event streams sequentially without buffering past examples or task-specific attributes. We present a novel and realistic experimental setup for modeling event streams, where PromptTPP consistently achieves state-of-the-art performance across three real user behavior datasets.

Although it has been demonstrated that Natural Language Processing (NLP) algorithms are vulnerable to deliberate attacks, the question of whether such weaknesses can lead to software security threats is under-explored. To bridge this gap, we conducted vulnerability tests on Text-to-SQL systems that are commonly used to create natural language interfaces to databases. We showed that the Text-to-SQL modules within six commercial applications can be manipulated to produce malicious code, potentially leading to data breaches and Denial of Service attacks. This is the first demonstration that NLP models can be exploited as attack vectors in the wild. In addition, experiments using four open-source language models verified that straightforward backdoor attacks on Text-to-SQL systems achieve a 100% success rate without affecting their performance. The aim of this work is to draw the community's attention to potential software security issues associated with NLP algorithms and encourage exploration of methods to mitigate against them.

The Self-Sovereign Identity (SSI) is a decentralized paradigm enabling full control over the data used to build and prove the identity. In Internet of Things networks with security requirements, the Self-Sovereign Identity can play a key role and bring benefits with respect to centralized identity solutions. The challenge is to make the SSI compatible with resource-constraint IoT networks. In line with this objective, the paper proposes and discusses an alternative (mutual) authentication process for IoT nodes under the same administration domain. The main idea is to combine the Decentralized IDentifier (DID)-based verification of private key ownership with the verification of a proof that the DID belongs to an evolving trusted set. The solution is built around the proof of membership notion. The paper analyzes two membership solutions, a novel solution designed by the Authors based on Merkle trees and a second one based on the adaptation of Boneh, Boyen and Shacham (BBS) group signature scheme. The paper concludes with a performance estimation and a comparative analysis.

Fingerprints have long been recognized as a unique and reliable means of personal identification. Central to the analysis and enhancement of fingerprints is the concept of the fingerprint core. Although the location of the core is used in many applications, to the best of our knowledge, this study is the first to investigate the empirical distribution of the core over a large, combined dataset of rolled, as well as plain fingerprint recordings. We identify and investigate the extent of incomplete rolling during the rolled fingerprint acquisition and investigate the centrality of the core. After correcting for the incomplete rolling, we find that the core deviates from the fingerprint center by 5.7% $\pm$ 5.2% to 7.6% $\pm$ 6.9%, depending on the finger. Additionally, we find that the assumption of normal distribution of the core position of plain fingerprint recordings cannot be rejected, but for rolled ones it can. Therefore, we use a multi-step process to find the distribution of the rolled fingerprint recordings. The process consists of an Anderson-Darling normality test, the Bayesian Information Criterion to reduce the number of possible candidate distributions and finally a Generalized Monte Carlo goodness-of-fit procedure to find the best fitting distribution. We find the non-central Fischer distribution best describes the cores' horizontal positions. Finally, we investigate the correlation between mean core position offset and the NFIQ 2 score and find that the NFIQ 2 prefers rolled fingerprint recordings where the core sits slightly below the fingerprint center.

We give a characterization of those sets of graphs that are both definable in Counting Monadic Second Order Logic (CMS) and context-free, i.e., least solutions of Hyperedge-Replacement (HR)-grammars introduced by Courcelle and Engelfriet. We give the following equivalent characterizations: (a) a set of graphs is recognizable (in the algebra that consists of all graphs and HR-operations) and has bounded tree-width; further, we refine this condition and show equivalence with recognizability in a finite-sort subalgebra of the graph algebra; (b) the set is parsable, i.e., there is an MS-definable transduction from graphs to a set of derivation trees labelled by HR-operations, such that the set of graphs is the image of this set of trees under the evaluation of the HR-operations; (c) the set of graphs is the image of unranked recognizable set of trees under an MS-definable transduction whose inverse is also MS-definable. The main goal of this paper is to present the above characterization, of which several directions are already known, in an accessible and unified way. We rely on a novel connection between two seminal results, a logical characterization of context-free graph languages in terms of tree to graph MS-definable transductions, by Courcelle and Engelfriet~, and a proof that an optimal-width tree decomposition of a graph can be built by an MS-definable transduction, by Bojanczyk and Pilipczuk.

Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) are state-of-the-art models for performing prediction tasks on graphs. While existing GNNs have shown great performance on various tasks related to graphs, little attention has been paid to the scenario where out-of-distribution (OOD) nodes exist in the graph during training and inference. Borrowing the concept from CV and NLP, we define OOD nodes as nodes with labels unseen from the training set. Since a lot of networks are automatically constructed by programs, real-world graphs are often noisy and may contain nodes from unknown distributions. In this work, we define the problem of graph learning with out-of-distribution nodes. Specifically, we aim to accomplish two tasks: 1) detect nodes which do not belong to the known distribution and 2) classify the remaining nodes to be one of the known classes. We demonstrate that the connection patterns in graphs are informative for outlier detection, and propose Out-of-Distribution Graph Attention Network (OODGAT), a novel GNN model which explicitly models the interaction between different kinds of nodes and separate inliers from outliers during feature propagation. Extensive experiments show that OODGAT outperforms existing outlier detection methods by a large margin, while being better or comparable in terms of in-distribution classification.

Pre-trained Language Models (PLMs) which are trained on large text corpus via self-supervised learning method, have yielded promising performance on various tasks in Natural Language Processing (NLP). However, though PLMs with huge parameters can effectively possess rich knowledge learned from massive training text and benefit downstream tasks at the fine-tuning stage, they still have some limitations such as poor reasoning ability due to the lack of external knowledge. Research has been dedicated to incorporating knowledge into PLMs to tackle these issues. In this paper, we present a comprehensive review of Knowledge-Enhanced Pre-trained Language Models (KE-PLMs) to provide a clear insight into this thriving field. We introduce appropriate taxonomies respectively for Natural Language Understanding (NLU) and Natural Language Generation (NLG) to highlight these two main tasks of NLP. For NLU, we divide the types of knowledge into four categories: linguistic knowledge, text knowledge, knowledge graph (KG), and rule knowledge. The KE-PLMs for NLG are categorized into KG-based and retrieval-based methods. Finally, we point out some promising future directions of KE-PLMs.

AI is undergoing a paradigm shift with the rise of models (e.g., BERT, DALL-E, GPT-3) that are trained on broad data at scale and are adaptable to a wide range of downstream tasks. We call these models foundation models to underscore their critically central yet incomplete character. This report provides a thorough account of the opportunities and risks of foundation models, ranging from their capabilities (e.g., language, vision, robotics, reasoning, human interaction) and technical principles(e.g., model architectures, training procedures, data, systems, security, evaluation, theory) to their applications (e.g., law, healthcare, education) and societal impact (e.g., inequity, misuse, economic and environmental impact, legal and ethical considerations). Though foundation models are based on standard deep learning and transfer learning, their scale results in new emergent capabilities,and their effectiveness across so many tasks incentivizes homogenization. Homogenization provides powerful leverage but demands caution, as the defects of the foundation model are inherited by all the adapted models downstream. Despite the impending widespread deployment of foundation models, we currently lack a clear understanding of how they work, when they fail, and what they are even capable of due to their emergent properties. To tackle these questions, we believe much of the critical research on foundation models will require deep interdisciplinary collaboration commensurate with their fundamentally sociotechnical nature.

BERT, a pre-trained Transformer model, has achieved ground-breaking performance on multiple NLP tasks. In this paper, we describe BERTSUM, a simple variant of BERT, for extractive summarization. Our system is the state of the art on the CNN/Dailymail dataset, outperforming the previous best-performed system by 1.65 on ROUGE-L. The codes to reproduce our results are available at //github.com/nlpyang/BertSum

Object detection typically assumes that training and test data are drawn from an identical distribution, which, however, does not always hold in practice. Such a distribution mismatch will lead to a significant performance drop. In this work, we aim to improve the cross-domain robustness of object detection. We tackle the domain shift on two levels: 1) the image-level shift, such as image style, illumination, etc, and 2) the instance-level shift, such as object appearance, size, etc. We build our approach based on the recent state-of-the-art Faster R-CNN model, and design two domain adaptation components, on image level and instance level, to reduce the domain discrepancy. The two domain adaptation components are based on H-divergence theory, and are implemented by learning a domain classifier in adversarial training manner. The domain classifiers on different levels are further reinforced with a consistency regularization to learn a domain-invariant region proposal network (RPN) in the Faster R-CNN model. We evaluate our newly proposed approach using multiple datasets including Cityscapes, KITTI, SIM10K, etc. The results demonstrate the effectiveness of our proposed approach for robust object detection in various domain shift scenarios.
