This paper introduces an integrated lot sizing and scheduling problem inspired from a real-world application in off-the-road tire industry. This problem considers the assignment of different items on parallel machines with complex eligibility constraints within a finite planning horizon. It also considers a large panel of specific constraints such as: backordering, a limited number of setups, upstream resources saturation and customers prioritization. A novel mixed integer formulation is proposed with the objective of optimizing different normalized criteria related to the inventory and service level performance. Based on this mathematical formulation, a problem-based matheuristic method that solves the lot sizing and assignment problems separately is proposed to solve the industrial case. A computational study and sensitivity analysis are carried out based on real-world data with up to 170 products, 70 unrelated parallel machines and 42 periods. The obtained results show the effectiveness of the proposed approach on improving the company's solution. Indeed, the two most important KPIs for the management have been optimized of respectively 32% for the backorders and 13% for the overstock. Moreover, the computational time have been reduced significantly.

Federated learning (FL) is a useful tool in distributed machine learning that utilizes users' local datasets in a privacy-preserving manner. When deploying FL in a constrained wireless environment; however, training models in a time-efficient manner can be a challenging task due to intermittent connectivity of devices, heterogeneous connection quality, and non-i.i.d. data. In this paper, we provide a novel convergence analysis of non-convex loss functions using FL on both i.i.d. and non-i.i.d. datasets with arbitrary device selection probabilities for each round. Then, using the derived convergence bound, we use stochastic optimization to develop a new client selection and power allocation algorithm that minimizes a function of the convergence bound and the average communication time under a transmit power constraint. We find an analytical solution to the minimization problem. One key feature of the algorithm is that knowledge of the channel statistics is not required and only the instantaneous channel state information needs to be known. Using the FEMNIST and CIFAR-10 datasets, we show through simulations that the communication time can be significantly decreased using our algorithm, compared to uniformly random participation.

Rapidly-exploring random tree (RRT) has been applied for autonomous parking due to quickly solving high-dimensional motion planning and easily reflecting constraints. However, planning time increases by the low probability of extending toward narrow parking spots without collisions. To reduce the planning time, the target tree algorithm was proposed, substituting a parking goal in RRT with a set (target tree) of backward parking paths. However, it consists of circular and straight paths, and an autonomous vehicle cannot park accurately because of curvature-discontinuity. Moreover, the planning time increases in complex environments; backward paths can be blocked by obstacles. Therefore, this paper introduces the continuous-curvature target tree algorithm for complex parking environments. First, a target tree includes clothoid paths to address such curvature-discontinuity. Second, to reduce the planning time further, a cost function is defined to construct a target tree that considers obstacles. Integrated with optimal-variant RRT and searching for the shortest path among the reached backward paths, the proposed algorithm obtains a near-optimal path as the sampling time increases. Experiment results in real environments show that the vehicle more accurately parks, and continuous-curvature paths are obtained more quickly and with higher success rates than those acquired with other sampling-based algorithms.

The provision of communication services via portable and mobile devices, such as aerial base stations, is a crucial concept to be realized in 5G/6G networks. Conventionally, IoT/edge devices need to transmit the data directly to the base station for training the model using machine learning techniques. The data transmission introduces privacy issues that might lead to security concerns and monetary losses. Recently, Federated learning was proposed to partially solve privacy issues via model-sharing with base station. However, the centralized nature of federated learning only allow the devices within the vicinity of base stations to share the trained models. Furthermore, the long-range communication compels the devices to increase transmission power, which raises the energy efficiency concerns. In this work, we propose distributed federated learning (DBFL) framework that overcomes the connectivity and energy efficiency issues for distant devices. The DBFL framework is compatible with mobile edge computing architecture that connects the devices in a distributed manner using clustering protocols. Experimental results show that the framework increases the classification performance by 7.4\% in comparison to conventional federated learning while reducing the energy consumption.

Decentralized stochastic gradient descent (SGD) is a driving engine for decentralized federated learning (DFL). The performance of decentralized SGD is jointly influenced by inter-node communications and local updates. In this paper, we propose a general DFL framework, which implements both multiple local updates and multiple inter-node communications periodically, to strike a balance between communication efficiency and model consensus. It can provide a general decentralized SGD analytical framework. We establish strong convergence guarantees for the proposed DFL algorithm without the assumption of convex objectives. The convergence rate of DFL can be optimized to achieve the balance of communication and computing costs under constrained resources. For improving communication efficiency of DFL, compressed communication is further introduced to the proposed DFL as a new scheme, named DFL with compressed communication (C-DFL). The proposed C-DFL exhibits linear convergence for strongly convex objectives. Experiment results based on MNIST and CIFAR-10 datasets illustrate the superiority of DFL over traditional decentralized SGD methods and show that C-DFL further enhances communication efficiency.

Deep Reinforcement Learning (DRL) solutions are becoming pervasive at the edge of the network as they enable autonomous decision-making in a dynamic environment. However, to be able to adapt to the ever-changing environment, the DRL solution implemented on an embedded device has to continue to occasionally take exploratory actions even after initial convergence. In other words, the device has to occasionally take random actions and update the value function, i.e., re-train the Artificial Neural Network (ANN), to ensure its performance remains optimal. Unfortunately, embedded devices often lack processing power and energy required to train the ANN. The energy aspect is particularly challenging when the edge device is powered only by a means of Energy Harvesting (EH). To overcome this problem, we propose a two-part algorithm in which the DRL process is trained at the sink. Then the weights of the fully trained underlying ANN are periodically transferred to the EH-powered embedded device taking actions. Using an EH-powered sensor, real-world measurements dataset, and optimizing for Age of Information (AoI) metric, we demonstrate that such a DRL solution can operate without any degradation in the performance, with only a few ANN updates per day.

Many important real-world problems have action spaces that are high-dimensional, continuous or both, making full enumeration of all possible actions infeasible. Instead, only small subsets of actions can be sampled for the purpose of policy evaluation and improvement. In this paper, we propose a general framework to reason in a principled way about policy evaluation and improvement over such sampled action subsets. This sample-based policy iteration framework can in principle be applied to any reinforcement learning algorithm based upon policy iteration. Concretely, we propose Sampled MuZero, an extension of the MuZero algorithm that is able to learn in domains with arbitrarily complex action spaces by planning over sampled actions. We demonstrate this approach on the classical board game of Go and on two continuous control benchmark domains: DeepMind Control Suite and Real-World RL Suite.

Recent studies in image retrieval task have shown that ensembling different models and combining multiple global descriptors lead to performance improvement. However, training different models for ensemble is not only difficult but also inefficient with respect to time or memory. In this paper, we propose a novel framework that exploits multiple global descriptors to get an ensemble-like effect while it can be trained in an end-to-end manner. The proposed framework is flexible and expandable by the global descriptor, CNN backbone, loss, and dataset. Moreover, we investigate the effectiveness of combining multiple global descriptors with quantitative and qualitative analysis. Our extensive experiments show that the combined descriptor outperforms a single global descriptor, as it can utilize different types of feature properties. In the benchmark evaluation, the proposed framework achieves the state-of-the-art performance on the CARS196, CUB200-2011, In-shop Clothes and Stanford Online Products on image retrieval tasks by a large margin compared to competing approaches. Our model implementations and pretrained models are publicly available.

In this paper, we propose a deep reinforcement learning framework called GCOMB to learn algorithms that can solve combinatorial problems over large graphs. GCOMB mimics the greedy algorithm in the original problem and incrementally constructs a solution. The proposed framework utilizes Graph Convolutional Network (GCN) to generate node embeddings that predicts the potential nodes in the solution set from the entire node set. These embeddings enable an efficient training process to learn the greedy policy via Q-learning. Through extensive evaluation on several real and synthetic datasets containing up to a million nodes, we establish that GCOMB is up to 41% better than the state of the art, up to seven times faster than the greedy algorithm, robust and scalable to large dynamic networks.

Querying graph structured data is a fundamental operation that enables important applications including knowledge graph search, social network analysis, and cyber-network security. However, the growing size of real-world data graphs poses severe challenges for graph databases to meet the response-time requirements of the applications. Planning the computational steps of query processing - Query Planning - is central to address these challenges. In this paper, we study the problem of learning to speedup query planning in graph databases towards the goal of improving the computational-efficiency of query processing via training queries.We present a Learning to Plan (L2P) framework that is applicable to a large class of query reasoners that follow the Threshold Algorithm (TA) approach. First, we define a generic search space over candidate query plans, and identify target search trajectories (query plans) corresponding to the training queries by performing an expensive search. Subsequently, we learn greedy search control knowledge to imitate the search behavior of the target query plans. We provide a concrete instantiation of our L2P framework for STAR, a state-of-the-art graph query reasoner. Our experiments on benchmark knowledge graphs including DBpedia, YAGO, and Freebase show that using the query plans generated by the learned search control knowledge, we can significantly improve the speed of STAR with negligible loss in accuracy.
