Physics-Informed Neural Networks (PINNs) have emerged as a promising deep learning framework for approximating numerical solutions for partial differential equations (PDEs). While conventional PINNs and most related studies adopt fully-connected multilayer perceptrons (MLP) as the backbone structure, they have neglected the temporal relations in PDEs and failed to approximate the true solution. In this paper, we propose a novel Transformer-based framework, namely PINNsFormer, that accurately approximates PDEs' solutions by capturing the temporal dependencies with multi-head attention mechanisms in Transformer-based models. Instead of approximating point predictions, PINNsFormer adapts input vectors to pseudo sequences and point-wise PINNs loss to a sequential PINNs loss. In addition, PINNsFormer is equipped with a novel activation function, namely Wavelet, which anticipates the Fourier decomposition through deep neural networks. We empirically demonstrate PINNsFormer's ability to capture the PDE solutions for various scenarios, in which conventional PINNs have failed to learn. We also show that PINNsFormer achieves superior approximation accuracy on such problems than conventional PINNs with non-sensitive hyperparameters, in trade of marginal computational and memory costs, with extensive experiments.

In computation pathology, the pyramid structure of gigapixel Whole Slide Images (WSIs) has recently been studied for capturing various information from individual cell interactions to tissue microenvironments. This hierarchical structure is believed to be beneficial for cancer diagnosis and prognosis tasks. However, most previous hierarchical WSI analysis works (1) only characterize local or global correlations within the WSI pyramids and (2) use only unidirectional interaction between different resolutions, leading to an incomplete picture of WSI pyramids. To this end, this paper presents a novel Hierarchical Interaction Graph-Transformer (i.e., HIGT) for WSI analysis. With Graph Neural Network and Transformer as the building commons, HIGT can learn both short-range local information and long-range global representation of the WSI pyramids. Considering that the information from different resolutions is complementary and can benefit each other during the learning process, we further design a novel Bidirectional Interaction block to establish communication between different levels within the WSI pyramids. Finally, we aggregate both coarse-grained and fine-grained features learned from different levels together for slide-level prediction. We evaluate our methods on two public WSI datasets from TCGA projects, i.e., kidney carcinoma (KICA) and esophageal carcinoma (ESCA). Experimental results show that our HIGT outperforms both hierarchical and non-hierarchical state-of-the-art methods on both tumor subtyping and staging tasks.
In data-rich domains such as vision, language, and speech, deep learning prevails to deliver high-performance task-specific models and can even learn general task-agnostic representations for efficient finetuning to downstream tasks. However, deep learning in resource-limited domains still faces multiple challenges including (i) limited data, (ii) constrained model development cost, and (iii) lack of adequate pre-trained models for effective finetuning. This paper provides an overview of model reprogramming to bridge this gap. Model reprogramming enables resource-efficient cross-domain machine learning by repurposing and reusing a well-developed pre-trained model from a source domain to solve tasks in a target domain without model finetuning, where the source and target domains can be vastly different. In many applications, model reprogramming outperforms transfer learning and training from scratch. This paper elucidates the methodology of model reprogramming, summarizes existing use cases, provides a theoretical explanation of the success of model reprogramming, and concludes with a discussion on open-ended research questions and opportunities. A list of model reprogramming studies is actively maintained and updated at //github.com/IBM/model-reprogramming.
While traditional machine learning can effectively tackle a wide range of problems, it primarily operates within a closed-world setting, which presents limitations when dealing with streaming data. As a solution, incremental learning emerges to address real-world scenarios involving new data's arrival. Recently, pre-training has made significant advancements and garnered the attention of numerous researchers. The strong performance of these pre-trained models (PTMs) presents a promising avenue for developing continual learning algorithms that can effectively adapt to real-world scenarios. Consequently, exploring the utilization of PTMs in incremental learning has become essential. This paper introduces a pre-trained model-based continual learning toolbox known as PILOT. On the one hand, PILOT implements some state-of-the-art class-incremental learning algorithms based on pre-trained models, such as L2P, DualPrompt, and CODA-Prompt. On the other hand, PILOT also fits typical class-incremental learning algorithms (e.g., DER, FOSTER, and MEMO) within the context of pre-trained models to evaluate their effectiveness.
Tsetlin Machines (TMs) provide a fundamental shift from arithmetic-based to logic-based machine learning. Supporting convolution, they deal successfully with image classification datasets like MNIST, Fashion-MNIST, and CIFAR-2. However, the TM struggles with getting state-of-the-art performance on CIFAR-10 and CIFAR-100, representing more complex tasks. This paper introduces plug-and-play collaboration between specialized TMs, referred to as TM Composites. The collaboration relies on a TM's ability to specialize during learning and to assess its competence during inference. When teaming up, the most confident TMs make the decisions, relieving the uncertain ones. In this manner, a TM Composite becomes more competent than its members, benefiting from their specializations. The collaboration is plug-and-play in that members can be combined in any way, at any time, without fine-tuning. We implement three TM specializations in our empirical evaluation: Histogram of Gradients, Adaptive Gaussian Thresholding, and Color Thermometers. The resulting TM Composite increases accuracy on Fashion-MNIST by two percentage points, CIFAR-10 by twelve points, and CIFAR-100 by nine points, yielding new state-of-the-art results for TMs. Overall, we envision that TM Composites will enable an ultra-low energy and transparent alternative to state-of-the-art deep learning on more tasks and datasets.
Multi-Modal automatic speech recognition (ASR) techniques aim to leverage additional modalities to improve the performance of speech recognition systems. While existing approaches primarily focus on video or contextual information, the utilization of extra supplementary textual information has been overlooked. Recognizing the abundance of online conference videos with slides, which provide rich domain-specific information in the form of text and images, we release SlideSpeech, a large-scale audio-visual corpus enriched with slides. The corpus contains 1,705 videos, 1,000+ hours, with 473 hours of high-quality transcribed speech. Moreover, the corpus contains a significant amount of real-time synchronized slides. In this work, we present the pipeline for constructing the corpus and propose baseline methods for utilizing text information in the visual slide context. Through the application of keyword extraction and contextual ASR methods in the benchmark system, we demonstrate the potential of improving speech recognition performance by incorporating textual information from supplementary video slides.
Causal Machine Learning (CausalML) is an umbrella term for machine learning methods that formalize the data-generation process as a structural causal model (SCM). This allows one to reason about the effects of changes to this process (i.e., interventions) and what would have happened in hindsight (i.e., counterfactuals). We categorize work in \causalml into five groups according to the problems they tackle: (1) causal supervised learning, (2) causal generative modeling, (3) causal explanations, (4) causal fairness, (5) causal reinforcement learning. For each category, we systematically compare its methods and point out open problems. Further, we review modality-specific applications in computer vision, natural language processing, and graph representation learning. Finally, we provide an overview of causal benchmarks and a critical discussion of the state of this nascent field, including recommendations for future work.
Exploration-exploitation is a powerful and practical tool in multi-agent learning (MAL), however, its effects are far from understood. To make progress in this direction, we study a smooth analogue of Q-learning. We start by showing that our learning model has strong theoretical justification as an optimal model for studying exploration-exploitation. Specifically, we prove that smooth Q-learning has bounded regret in arbitrary games for a cost model that explicitly captures the balance between game and exploration costs and that it always converges to the set of quantal-response equilibria (QRE), the standard solution concept for games under bounded rationality, in weighted potential games with heterogeneous learning agents. In our main task, we then turn to measure the effect of exploration in collective system performance. We characterize the geometry of the QRE surface in low-dimensional MAL systems and link our findings with catastrophe (bifurcation) theory. In particular, as the exploration hyperparameter evolves over-time, the system undergoes phase transitions where the number and stability of equilibria can change radically given an infinitesimal change to the exploration parameter. Based on this, we provide a formal theoretical treatment of how tuning the exploration parameter can provably lead to equilibrium selection with both positive as well as negative (and potentially unbounded) effects to system performance.
Graph-based semi-supervised learning (SSL) is an important learning problem where the goal is to assign labels to initially unlabeled nodes in a graph. Graph Convolutional Networks (GCNs) have recently been shown to be effective for graph-based SSL problems. GCNs inherently assume existence of pairwise relationships in the graph-structured data. However, in many real-world problems, relationships go beyond pairwise connections and hence are more complex. Hypergraphs provide a natural modeling tool to capture such complex relationships. In this work, we explore the use of GCNs for hypergraph-based SSL. In particular, we propose HyperGCN, an SSL method which uses a layer-wise propagation rule for convolutional neural networks operating directly on hypergraphs. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first principled adaptation of GCNs to hypergraphs. HyperGCN is able to encode both the hypergraph structure and hypernode features in an effective manner. Through detailed experimentation, we demonstrate HyperGCN's effectiveness at hypergraph-based SSL.
This paper describes a general framework for learning Higher-Order Network Embeddings (HONE) from graph data based on network motifs. The HONE framework is highly expressive and flexible with many interchangeable components. The experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of learning higher-order network representations. In all cases, HONE outperforms recent embedding methods that are unable to capture higher-order structures with a mean relative gain in AUC of $19\%$ (and up to $75\%$ gain) across a wide variety of networks and embedding methods.
Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) have gained significant traction in the field of machine learning, particularly due to their high accuracy in visual recognition. Recent works have pushed the performance of GPU implementations of CNNs to significantly improve their classification and training times. With these improvements, many frameworks have become available for implementing CNNs on both CPUs and GPUs, with no support for FPGA implementations. In this work we present a modified version of the popular CNN framework Caffe, with FPGA support. This allows for classification using CNN models and specialized FPGA implementations with the flexibility of reprogramming the device when necessary, seamless memory transactions between host and device, simple-to-use test benches, and the ability to create pipelined layer implementations. To validate the framework, we use the Xilinx SDAccel environment to implement an FPGA-based Winograd convolution engine and show that the FPGA layer can be used alongside other layers running on a host processor to run several popular CNNs (AlexNet, GoogleNet, VGG A, Overfeat). The results show that our framework achieves 50 GFLOPS across 3x3 convolutions in the benchmarks. This is achieved within a practical framework, which will aid in future development of FPGA-based CNNs.
