Given a set of objects O in the plane, the corresponding intersection graph is defined as follows. A vertex is created for each object and an edge joins two vertices whenever the corresponding objects intersect. We study here the case of unit segments and polylines with exactly k bends. In the recognition problem, we are given a graph and want to decide whether the graph can be represented as the intersection graph of certain geometric objects. In previous work it was shown that various recognition problems are $\exists\mathbb{R}$-complete, leaving unit segments and polylines as few remaining natural cases. We show that recognition for both families of objects is $\exists\mathbb{R}$-complete.

We present a novel data-driven strategy to choose the hyperparameter $k$ in the $k$-NN regression estimator without using any hold-out data. We treat the problem of choosing the hyperparameter as an iterative procedure (over $k$) and propose using an easily implemented in practice strategy based on the idea of early stopping and the minimum discrepancy principle. This model selection strategy is proven to be minimax-optimal over some smoothness function classes, for instance, the Lipschitz functions class on a bounded domain. The novel method often improves statistical performance on artificial and real-world data sets in comparison to other model selection strategies, such as the Hold-out method, 5-fold cross-validation, and AIC criterion. The novelty of the strategy comes from reducing the computational time of the model selection procedure while preserving the statistical (minimax) optimality of the resulting estimator. More precisely, given a sample of size $n$, if one should choose $k$ among $\left\{ 1, \ldots, n \right\}$, and $\left\{ f^1, \ldots, f^n \right\}$ are the estimators of the regression function, the minimum discrepancy principle requires the calculation of a fraction of the estimators, while this is not the case for the generalized cross-validation, Akaike's AIC criteria, or Lepskii principle.
The unsupervised task of Joint Alignment (JA) of images is beset by challenges such as high complexity, geometric distortions, and convergence to poor local or even global optima. Although Vision Transformers (ViT) have recently provided valuable features for JA, they fall short of fully addressing these issues. Consequently, researchers frequently depend on expensive models and numerous regularization terms, resulting in long training times and challenging hyperparameter tuning. We introduce the Spatial Joint Alignment Model (SpaceJAM), a novel approach that addresses the JA task with efficiency and simplicity. SpaceJAM leverages a compact architecture with only 16K trainable parameters and uniquely operates without the need for regularization or atlas maintenance. Evaluations on SPair-71K and CUB datasets demonstrate that SpaceJAM matches the alignment capabilities of existing methods while significantly reducing computational demands and achieving at least a 10x speedup. SpaceJAM sets a new standard for rapid and effective image alignment, making the process more accessible and efficient. Our code is available at: //bgu-cs-vil.github.io/SpaceJAM/.
Clustering is one of the staples of data analysis and unsupervised learning. As such, clustering algorithms are often used on massive data sets, and they need to be extremely fast. We focus on the Euclidean $k$-median and $k$-means problems, two of the standard ways to model the task of clustering. For these, the go-to algorithm is $k$-means++, which yields an $O(\log k)$-approximation in time $\tilde O(nkd)$. While it is possible to improve either the approximation factor [Lattanzi and Sohler, ICML19] or the running time [Cohen-Addad et al., NeurIPS 20], it is unknown how precise a linear-time algorithm can be. In this paper, we almost answer this question by presenting an almost linear-time algorithm to compute a constant-factor approximation.
Deep learning-based object recognition systems can be easily fooled by various adversarial perturbations. One reason for the weak robustness may be that they do not have part-based inductive bias like the human recognition process. Motivated by this, several part-based recognition models have been proposed to improve the adversarial robustness of recognition. However, due to the lack of part annotations, the effectiveness of these methods is only validated on small-scale nonstandard datasets. In this work, we propose PIN++, short for PartImageNet++, a dataset providing high-quality part segmentation annotations for all categories of ImageNet-1K (IN-1K). With these annotations, we build part-based methods directly on the standard IN-1K dataset for robust recognition. Different from previous two-stage part-based models, we propose a Multi-scale Part-supervised Model (MPM), to learn a robust representation with part annotations. Experiments show that MPM yielded better adversarial robustness on the large-scale IN-1K over strong baselines across various attack settings. Furthermore, MPM achieved improved robustness on common corruptions and several out-of-distribution datasets. The dataset, together with these results, enables and encourages researchers to explore the potential of part-based models in more real applications.
In this paper, on the basis of a (Fenchel) duality theory on the continuous level, we derive an $\textit{a posteriori}$ error identity for arbitrary conforming approximations of the primal formulation and the dual formulation of the scalar Signorini problem. In addition, on the basis of a (Fenchel) duality theory on the discrete level, we derive an $\textit{a priori}$ error identity that applies to the approximation of the primal formulation using the Crouzeix-Raviart element and to the approximation of the dual formulation using the Raviart-Thomas element, and leads to quasi-optimal error decay rates without imposing additional assumptions on the contact set and in arbitrary space dimensions.
The existence of a cosmic background of primordial gravitational waves (PGWB) is a robust prediction of inflationary cosmology, but it has so far evaded discovery. The most promising avenue of its detection is via measurements of Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) $B$-polarization. However, this is not straightforward due to (a) the fact that CMB maps are distorted by gravitational lensing and (b) the high-dimensional nature of CMB data, which renders likelihood-based analysis methods computationally extremely expensive. In this paper, we introduce an efficient likelihood-free, end-to-end inference method to directly infer the posterior distribution of the tensor-to-scalar ratio $r$ from lensed maps of the Stokes $Q$ and $U$ polarization parameters. Our method employs a generative model to delense the maps and utilizes the Approximate Bayesian Computation (ABC) algorithm to sample $r$. We demonstrate that our method yields unbiased estimates of $r$ with well-calibrated uncertainty quantification.
Graph neural networks form a class of deep learning architectures specifically designed to work with graph-structured data. As such, they share the inherent limitations and problems of deep learning, especially regarding the issues of explainability and trustworthiness. We propose $\mu\mathcal{G}$, an original domain-specific language for the specification of graph neural networks that aims to overcome these issues. The language's syntax is introduced, and its meaning is rigorously defined by a denotational semantics. An equivalent characterization in the form of an operational semantics is also provided and, together with a type system, is used to prove the type soundness of $\mu\mathcal{G}$. We show how $\mu\mathcal{G}$ programs can be represented in a more user-friendly graphical visualization, and provide examples of its generality by showing how it can be used to define some of the most popular graph neural network models, or to develop any custom graph processing application.
A module of a graph G is a set of vertices that have the same set of neighbours outside. Modules of a graphs form a so-called partitive family and thereby can be represented by a unique tree MD(G), called the modular decomposition tree. Motivated by the central role of modules in numerous algorithmic graph theory questions, the problem of efficiently computing MD(G) has been investigated since the early 70's. To date the best algorithms run in linear time but are all rather complicated. By combining previous algorithmic paradigms developed for the problem, we are able to present a simpler linear-time that relies on very simple data-structures, namely slice decomposition and sequences of rooted ordered trees.
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.
Graph convolution networks (GCN) are increasingly popular in many applications, yet remain notoriously hard to train over large graph datasets. They need to compute node representations recursively from their neighbors. Current GCN training algorithms suffer from either high computational costs that grow exponentially with the number of layers, or high memory usage for loading the entire graph and node embeddings. In this paper, we propose a novel efficient layer-wise training framework for GCN (L-GCN), that disentangles feature aggregation and feature transformation during training, hence greatly reducing time and memory complexities. We present theoretical analysis for L-GCN under the graph isomorphism framework, that L-GCN leads to as powerful GCNs as the more costly conventional training algorithm does, under mild conditions. We further propose L^2-GCN, which learns a controller for each layer that can automatically adjust the training epochs per layer in L-GCN. Experiments show that L-GCN is faster than state-of-the-arts by at least an order of magnitude, with a consistent of memory usage not dependent on dataset size, while maintaining comparable prediction performance. With the learned controller, L^2-GCN can further cut the training time in half. Our codes are available at //github.com/Shen-Lab/L2-GCN.
