Generating a long-distance quantum entanglement is one of the most essential functions of a quantum network to support quantum communication and computing applications. The successful entanglement rate during a probabilistic entanglement process decreases dramatically with distance, and swapping is a widely-applied quantum technique to address this issue. Most existing entanglement routing protocols use a classic entanglement-swapping method based on Bell State measurements that can only fuse two successful entanglement links. This paper appeals to a more general and efficient swapping method, namely n-fusion based on Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger measurements that can fuse n successful entanglement links, to maximize the entanglement rate for multiple quantum-user pairs over a quantum network. We propose efficient entanglement routing algorithms that utilize the properties of n-fusion for quantum networks with general topologies. Evaluation results highlight that our proposed algorithm under n-fusion can greatly improve the network performance compared with existing ones.

Anderson acceleration (AA) is a well-known method for accelerating the convergence of iterative algorithms, with applications in various fields including deep learning and optimization. Despite its popularity in these areas, the effectiveness of AA in classical machine learning classifiers has not been thoroughly studied. Tabular data, in particular, presents a unique challenge for deep learning models, and classical machine learning models are known to perform better in these scenarios. However, the convergence analysis of these models has received limited attention. To address this gap in research, we implement a support vector machine (SVM) classifier variant that incorporates AA to speed up convergence. We evaluate the performance of our SVM with and without Anderson acceleration on several datasets from the biology domain and demonstrate that the use of AA significantly improves convergence and reduces the training loss as the number of iterations increases. Our findings provide a promising perspective on the potential of Anderson acceleration in the training of simple machine learning classifiers and underscore the importance of further research in this area. By showing the effectiveness of AA in this setting, we aim to inspire more studies that explore the applications of AA in classical machine learning.

The magnetic inversion method is one of the non-destructive geophysical methods, which aims to estimate the subsurface susceptibility distribution from surface magnetic anomaly data. Recently, supervised deep learning methods have been widely utilized in lots of geophysical fields including magnetic inversion. However, these methods rely heavily on synthetic training data, whose performance is limited since the synthetic data is not independently and identically distributed with the field data. Thus, we proposed to realize magnetic inversion by self-supervised deep learning. The proposed self-supervised knowledge-driven 3D magnetic inversion method (SSKMI) learns on the target field data by a closed loop of the inversion and forward models. Given that the parameters of the forward model are preset, SSKMI can optimize the inversion model by minimizing the mean absolute error between observed and re-estimated surface magnetic anomalies. Besides, there is a knowledge-driven module in the proposed inversion model, which makes the deep learning method more explicable. Meanwhile, comparative experiments demonstrate that the knowledge-driven module can accelerate the training of the proposed method and achieve better results. Since magnetic inversion is an ill-pose task, SSKMI proposed to constrain the inversion model by a guideline in the auxiliary loop. The experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method is a reliable magnetic inversion method with outstanding performance.

Multi-task learning (MTL), a learning paradigm to learn multiple related tasks simultaneously, has achieved great success in various fields. However, task-balancing remains a significant challenge in MTL, with the disparity in loss/gradient scales often leading to performance compromises. In this paper, we propose a Scale-Invariant Multi-Task Learning (SI-MTL) method to alleviate the task-balancing problem from both loss and gradient perspectives. Specifically, SI-MTL contains a logarithm transformation which is performed on all task losses to ensure scale-invariant at the loss level, and a gradient balancing method, SI-G, which normalizes all task gradients to the same magnitude as the maximum gradient norm. Extensive experiments conducted on several benchmark datasets consistently demonstrate the effectiveness of SI-G and the state-of-the-art performance of SI-MTL.

Quantum computation represents a computational paradigm whose distinctive attributes confer the ability to devise algorithms with asymptotic performance levels significantly superior to those achievable via classical computation. Recent strides have been taken to apply this computational framework in tackling and resolving various issues related to text processing. The resultant solutions demonstrate marked advantages over their classical counterparts. This study employs quantum computation to efficaciously surmount text processing challenges, particularly those involving string comparison. The focus is on the alignment of fixed-length substrings within two input strings. Specifically, given two input strings, $x$ and $y$, both of length $n$, and a value $d \leq n$, we want to verify the following conditions: the existence of a common prefix of length $d$, the presence of a common substring of length $d$ beginning at position $j$ (with $0 \leq j < n$) and, the presence of any common substring of length $d$ beginning in both strings at the same position. Such problems find applications as sub-procedures in a variety of problems concerning text processing and sequence analysis. Notably, our approach furnishes polylogarithmic solutions, a stark contrast to the linear complexity inherent in the best classical alternatives.

Measures of algorithmic fairness are usually discussed in the context of binary decisions. We extend the approach to continuous scores. So far, ROC-based measures have mainly been suggested for this purpose. Other existing methods depend heavily on the distribution of scores, are unsuitable for ranking tasks, or their effect sizes are not interpretable. Here, we propose a distributionally invariant version of fairness measures for continuous scores with a reasonable interpretation based on the Wasserstein distance. Our measures are easily computable and well suited for quantifying and interpreting the strength of group disparities as well as for comparing biases across different models, datasets, or time points. We derive a link between the different families of existing fairness measures for scores and show that the proposed distributionally invariant fairness measures outperform ROC-based fairness measures because they are more explicit and can quantify significant biases that ROC-based fairness measures miss. Finally, we demonstrate their effectiveness through experiments on the most commonly used fairness benchmark datasets.

Deep neural networks (NNs) are considered a powerful tool for balancing the performance and complexity of multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) receivers due to their accurate feature extraction, high parallelism, and excellent inference ability. Graph NNs (GNNs) have recently demonstrated outstanding capability in learning enhanced message passing rules and have shown success in overcoming the drawback of inaccurate Gaussian approximation of expectation propagation (EP)-based MIMO detectors. However, the application of the GNN-enhanced EP detector to MIMO turbo receivers is underexplored and non-trivial due to the requirement of extrinsic information for iterative processing. This paper proposes a GNN-enhanced EP algorithm for MIMO turbo receivers, which realizes the turbo principle of generating extrinsic information from the MIMO detector through a specially designed training procedure. Additionally, an edge pruning strategy is designed to eliminate redundant connections in the original fully connected model of the GNN utilizing the correlation information inherently from the EP algorithm. Edge pruning reduces the computational cost dramatically and enables the network to focus more attention on the weights that are vital for performance. Simulation results and complexity analysis indicate that the proposed MIMO turbo receiver outperforms the EP turbo approaches by over 1 dB at the bit error rate of $10^{-5}$, exhibits performance equivalent to state-of-the-art receivers with 2.5 times shorter running time, and adapts to various scenarios.

Federated Learning (FL) is a decentralized machine-learning paradigm, in which a global server iteratively averages the model parameters of local users without accessing their data. User heterogeneity has imposed significant challenges to FL, which can incur drifted global models that are slow to converge. Knowledge Distillation has recently emerged to tackle this issue, by refining the server model using aggregated knowledge from heterogeneous users, other than directly averaging their model parameters. This approach, however, depends on a proxy dataset, making it impractical unless such a prerequisite is satisfied. Moreover, the ensemble knowledge is not fully utilized to guide local model learning, which may in turn affect the quality of the aggregated model. Inspired by the prior art, we propose a data-free knowledge distillation} approach to address heterogeneous FL, where the server learns a lightweight generator to ensemble user information in a data-free manner, which is then broadcasted to users, regulating local training using the learned knowledge as an inductive bias. Empirical studies powered by theoretical implications show that, our approach facilitates FL with better generalization performance using fewer communication rounds, compared with the state-of-the-art.

Federated learning is a new distributed machine learning framework, where a bunch of heterogeneous clients collaboratively train a model without sharing training data. In this work, we consider a practical and ubiquitous issue in federated learning: intermittent client availability, where the set of eligible clients may change during the training process. Such an intermittent client availability model would significantly deteriorate the performance of the classical Federated Averaging algorithm (FedAvg for short). We propose a simple distributed non-convex optimization algorithm, called Federated Latest Averaging (FedLaAvg for short), which leverages the latest gradients of all clients, even when the clients are not available, to jointly update the global model in each iteration. Our theoretical analysis shows that FedLaAvg attains the convergence rate of $O(1/(N^{1/4} T^{1/2}))$, achieving a sublinear speedup with respect to the total number of clients. We implement and evaluate FedLaAvg with the CIFAR-10 dataset. The evaluation results demonstrate that FedLaAvg indeed reaches a sublinear speedup and achieves 4.23% higher test accuracy than FedAvg.

Multi-relation Question Answering is a challenging task, due to the requirement of elaborated analysis on questions and reasoning over multiple fact triples in knowledge base. In this paper, we present a novel model called Interpretable Reasoning Network that employs an interpretable, hop-by-hop reasoning process for question answering. The model dynamically decides which part of an input question should be analyzed at each hop; predicts a relation that corresponds to the current parsed results; utilizes the predicted relation to update the question representation and the state of the reasoning process; and then drives the next-hop reasoning. Experiments show that our model yields state-of-the-art results on two datasets. More interestingly, the model can offer traceable and observable intermediate predictions for reasoning analysis and failure diagnosis, thereby allowing manual manipulation in predicting the final answer.

Object detection is considered as one of the most challenging problems in computer vision, since it requires correct prediction of both classes and locations of objects in images. In this study, we define a more difficult scenario, namely zero-shot object detection (ZSD) where no visual training data is available for some of the target object classes. We present a novel approach to tackle this ZSD problem, where a convex combination of embeddings are used in conjunction with a detection framework. For evaluation of ZSD methods, we propose a simple dataset constructed from Fashion-MNIST images and also a custom zero-shot split for the Pascal VOC detection challenge. The experimental results suggest that our method yields promising results for ZSD.
