Many economic panel and dynamic models, such as rational behavior and Euler equations, imply that the parameters of interest are identified by conditional moment restrictions with high dimensional conditioning instruments. We develop a novel inference method for the parameters identified by conditional moment restrictions, where the dimension of the conditioning instruments is high and there is no prior information about which conditioning instruments are weak or irrelevant. Building on Bierens (1990), we propose penalized maximum statistics and combine bootstrap inference with model selection. Our method optimizes the asymptotic power against a set of $n^{-1/2}$-local alternatives of interest by solving a data-dependent max-min problem for tuning parameter selection. We demonstrate the efficacy of our method by two empirical examples: the elasticity of intertemporal substitution and rational unbiased reporting of ability status. Extensive Monte Carlo experiments based on the first empirical example show that our inference procedure is superior to those available in the literature in realistic settings.

High-level synthesis (HLS) refers to the automatic translation of a software program written in a high-level language into a hardware design. Modern HLS tools have moved away from the traditional approach of static (compile time) scheduling of operations to generating dynamic circuits that schedule operations at run time. Such circuits trade-off area utilisation for increased dynamism and throughput. However, existing lowering flows in dynamically scheduled HLS tools rely on conservative assumptions on their input program due to both the intermediate representations (IR) utilised as well as the lack of formal specifications on the translation into hardware. These assumptions cause suboptimal hardware performance. In this work, we lift these assumptions by proposing a new and efficient abstraction for hardware mapping; namely h-GSA, an extension of the Gated Single Static Assignment (GSA) IR. Using this abstraction, we propose a lowering flow that transforms GSA into h-GSA and maps h-GSA into dynamically scheduled hardware circuits. We compare the schedules generated by our approach to those by the state-of-the-art dynamic-scheduling HLS tool, Dynamatic, and illustrate the potential performance improvement from hardware mapping using the proposed abstraction.

In the logic synthesis stage, structure transformations in the synthesis tool need to be combined into optimization sequences and act on the circuit to meet the specified circuit area and delay. However, logic synthesis optimization sequences are time-consuming to run, and predicting the quality of the results (QoR) against the synthesis optimization sequence for a circuit can help engineers find a better optimization sequence faster. In this work, we propose a deep learning method to predict the QoR of unseen circuit-optimization sequences pairs. Specifically, the structure transformations are translated into vectors by embedding methods and advanced natural language processing (NLP) technology (Transformer) is used to extract the features of the optimization sequences. In addition, to enable the prediction process of the model to be generalized from circuit to circuit, the graph representation of the circuit is represented as an adjacency matrix and a feature matrix. Graph neural networks(GNN) are used to extract the structural features of the circuits. For this problem, the Transformer and three typical GNNs are used. Furthermore, the Transformer and GNNs are adopted as a joint learning policy for the QoR prediction of the unseen circuit-optimization sequences. The methods resulting from the combination of Transformer and GNNs are benchmarked. The experimental results show that the joint learning of Transformer and GraphSage gives the best results. The Mean Absolute Error (MAE) of the predicted result is 0.412.

The distributed task allocation problem, as one of the most interesting distributed optimization challenges, has received considerable research attention recently. Previous works mainly focused on the task allocation problem in a population of individuals, where there are no constraints for affording task amounts. The latter condition, however, cannot always be hold. In this paper, we study the task allocation problem with constraints of task allocation in a game-theoretical framework. We assume that each individual can afford different amounts of task and the cost function is convex. To investigate the problem in the framework of population games, we construct a potential game and calculate the fitness function for each individual. We prove that when the Nash equilibrium point in the potential game is in the feasible solutions for the limited task allocation problem, the Nash equilibrium point is the unique globally optimal solution. Otherwise, we also derive analytically the unique globally optimal solution. In addition, in order to confirm our theoretical results, we consider the exponential and quadratic forms of cost function for each agent. Two algorithms with the mentioned representative cost functions are proposed to numerically seek the optimal solution to the limited task problems. We further perform Monte Carlo simulations which provide agreeing results with our analytical calculations.

Text-to-image person re-identification (TIReID) is a compelling topic in the cross-modal community, which aims to retrieve the target person based on a textual query. Although numerous TIReID methods have been proposed and achieved promising performance, they implicitly assume the training image-text pairs are correctly aligned, which is not always the case in real-world scenarios. In practice, the image-text pairs inevitably exist under-correlated or even false-correlated, a.k.a noisy correspondence (NC), due to the low quality of the images and annotation errors. To address this problem, we propose a novel Robust Dual Embedding method (RDE) that can learn robust visual-semantic associations even with NC. Specifically, RDE consists of two main components: 1) A Confident Consensus Division (CCD) module that leverages the dual-grained decisions of dual embedding modules to obtain a consensus set of clean training data, which enables the model to learn correct and reliable visual-semantic associations. 2) A Triplet-Alignment Loss (TAL) relaxes the conventional triplet-ranking loss with hardest negatives, which tends to rapidly overfit NC, to a log-exponential upper bound over all negatives, thus preventing the model from overemphasizing false image-text pairs. We conduct extensive experiments on three public benchmarks, namely CUHK-PEDES, ICFG-PEDES, and RSTPReID, to evaluate the performance and robustness of our RDE. Our method achieves state-of-the-art results both with and without synthetic noisy correspondences on all three datasets.

Due to its computational complexity, graph cuts for cluster detection and identification are used mostly in the form of convex relaxations. We propose to utilize the original graph cuts such as Ratio, Normalized or Cheeger Cut in order to detect clusters in weighted undirected graphs by restricting the graph cut minimization to the subset of $st$-MinCut partitions. Incorporating a vertex selection technique and restricting optimization to tightly connected clusters, we therefore combine the efficient computability of $st$-MinCuts and the intrinsic properties of Gomory-Hu trees with the cut quality of the original graph cuts, leading to linear runtime in the number of vertices and quadratic in the number of edges. Already in simple scenarios, the resulting algorithm Xist is able to approximate graph cut values better empirically than spectral clustering or comparable algorithms, even for large network datasets. We showcase its applicability by segmenting images from cell biology and provide empirical studies of runtime and classification rate.

Outlier detection can serve as an extremely important tool for researchers from a wide range of fields. From the sectors of banking and marketing to the social sciences and healthcare sectors, outlier detection techniques are very useful for identifying subjects that exhibit different and sometimes peculiar behaviours. When the data set available to the researcher consists of both discrete and continuous variables, outlier detection presents unprecedented challenges. In this paper we propose a novel method that detects outlying observations in settings of mixed-type data, while reducing the required user interaction which can lead to misleading findings caused by subjectivity. The methodology developed is being assessed through a series of simulations on data sets with varying characteristics and achieves very good performance levels. Our method demonstrates a high capacity for detecting the majority of outliers while minimising the number of falsely detected non-outlying observations. The ideas and techniques outlined in the paper can be used either as a pre-processing step or in tandem with other data mining and machine learning algorithms for developing novel approaches to challenging research problems.

Materials language processing (MLP) is one of the key facilitators of materials science research, as it enables the extraction of structured information from massive materials science literature. Prior works suggested high-performance MLP models for text classification, named entity recognition (NER), and extractive question answering (QA), which require complex model architecture, exhaustive fine-tuning and a large number of human-labelled datasets. In this study, we develop generative pretrained transformer (GPT)-enabled pipelines where the complex architectures of prior MLP models are replaced with strategic designs of prompt engineering. First, we develop a GPT-enabled document classification method for screening relevant documents, achieving comparable accuracy and reliability compared to prior models, with only small dataset. Secondly, for NER task, we design an entity-centric prompts, and learning few-shot of them improved the performance on most of entities in three open datasets. Finally, we develop an GPT-enabled extractive QA model, which provides improved performance and shows the possibility of automatically correcting annotations. While our findings confirm the potential of GPT-enabled MLP models as well as their value in terms of reliability and practicability, our scientific methods and systematic approach are applicable to any materials science domain to accelerate the information extraction of scientific literature.

In the context of finite sums minimization, variance reduction techniques are widely used to improve the performance of state-of-the-art stochastic gradient methods. Their practical impact is clear, as well as their theoretical properties. Stochastic proximal point algorithms have been studied as an alternative to stochastic gradient algorithms since they are more stable with respect to the choice of the stepsize but a proper variance reduced version is missing. In this work, we propose the first study of variance reduction techniques for stochastic proximal point algorithms. We introduce a stochastic proximal version of SVRG, SAGA, and some of their variants for smooth and convex functions. We provide several convergence results for the iterates and the objective function values. In addition, under the Polyak-{\L}ojasiewicz (PL) condition, we obtain linear convergence rates for the iterates and the function values. Our numerical experiments demonstrate the advantages of the proximal variance reduction methods over their gradient counterparts, especially about the stability with respect to the choice of the step size.

Optimal transport has gained much attention in image processing field, such as computer vision, image interpolation and medical image registration. Recently, Bredies et al. (ESAIM:M2AN 54:2351-2382, 2020) and Schmitzer et al. (IEEE T MED IMAGING 39:1626-1635, 2019) established the framework of optimal transport regularization for dynamic inverse problems. In this paper, we incorporate Wasserstein distance, together with total variation, into static inverse problems as a prior regularization. The Wasserstein distance formulated by Benamou-Brenier energy measures the similarity between the given template and the reconstructed image. Also, we analyze the existence of solutions of such variational problem in Radon measure space. Moreover, the first-order primal-dual algorithm is constructed for solving this general imaging problem in a specific grid strategy. Finally, numerical experiments for undersampled MRI reconstruction are presented which show that our proposed model can recover images well with high quality and structure preservation.
