The rise of mobile devices with abundant sensory data and local computing capabilities has driven the trend of federated learning (FL) on these devices. And personalized FL (PFL) emerges to train specific deep models for each mobile device to address data heterogeneity and varying performance preferences. However, mobile training times vary significantly, resulting in either delay (when waiting for slower devices for aggregation) or accuracy decline (when aggregation proceeds without waiting). In response, we propose a shift towards asynchronous PFL, where the server aggregates updates as soon as they are available. Nevertheless, existing asynchronous protocols are unfit for PFL because they are devised for federated training of a single global model. They suffer from slow convergence and decreased accuracy when confronted with severe data heterogeneity prevalent in PFL. Furthermore, they often exclude slower devices for staleness control, which notably compromises accuracy when these devices possess critical personalized data. Therefore, we propose EchoPFL, a coordination mechanism for asynchronous PFL. Central to EchoPFL is to include updates from all mobile devices regardless of their latency. To cope with the inevitable staleness from slow devices, EchoPFL revisits model broadcasting. It intelligently converts the unscalable broadcast to on-demand broadcast, leveraging the asymmetrical bandwidth in wireless networks and the dynamic clustering-based PFL. Experiments show that compared to status quo approaches, EchoPFL achieves a reduction of up to 88.2% in convergence time, an improvement of up to 46% in accuracy, and a decrease of 37% in communication costs

Analyzing individual emotions during group conversation is crucial in developing intelligent agents capable of natural human-machine interaction. While reliable emotion recognition techniques depend on different modalities (text, audio, video), the inherent heterogeneity between these modalities and the dynamic cross-modal interactions influenced by an individual's unique behavioral patterns make the task of emotion recognition very challenging. This difficulty is compounded in group settings, where the emotion and its temporal evolution are not only influenced by the individual but also by external contexts like audience reaction and context of the ongoing conversation. To meet this challenge, we propose a Multimodal Attention Network that captures cross-modal interactions at various levels of spatial abstraction by jointly learning its interactive bunch of mode-specific Peripheral and Central networks. The proposed MAN injects cross-modal attention via its Peripheral key-value pairs within each layer of a mode-specific Central query network. The resulting cross-attended mode-specific descriptors are then combined using an Adaptive Fusion technique that enables the model to integrate the discriminative and complementary mode-specific data patterns within an instance-specific multimodal descriptor. Given a dialogue represented by a sequence of utterances, the proposed AMuSE model condenses both spatial and temporal features into two dense descriptors: speaker-level and utterance-level. This helps not only in delivering better classification performance (3-5% improvement in Weighted-F1 and 5-7% improvement in Accuracy) in large-scale public datasets but also helps the users in understanding the reasoning behind each emotion prediction made by the model via its Multimodal Explainability Visualization module.

Causal effect estimation from observational data is a fundamental task in empirical sciences. It becomes particularly challenging when unobserved confounders are involved in a system. This paper focuses on front-door adjustment -- a classic technique which, using observed mediators allows to identify causal effects even in the presence of unobserved confounding. While the statistical properties of the front-door estimation are quite well understood, its algorithmic aspects remained unexplored for a long time. In 2022, Jeong, Tian, and Bareinboim presented the first polynomial-time algorithm for finding sets satisfying the front-door criterion in a given directed acyclic graph (DAG), with an $O(n^3(n+m))$ run time, where $n$ denotes the number of variables and $m$ the number of edges of the causal graph. In our work, we give the first linear-time, i.e., $O(n+m)$, algorithm for this task, which thus reaches the asymptotically optimal time complexity. This result implies an $O(n(n+m))$ delay enumeration algorithm of all front-door adjustment sets, again improving previous work by a factor of $n^3$. Moreover, we provide the first linear-time algorithm for finding a minimal front-door adjustment set. We offer implementations of our algorithms in multiple programming languages to facilitate practical usage and empirically validate their feasibility, even for large graphs.

Leveraging sensing modalities across diverse spatial and temporal resolutions can improve performance of robotic manipulation tasks. Multi-spatial resolution sensing provides hierarchical information captured at different spatial scales and enables both coarse and precise motions. Simultaneously multi-temporal resolution sensing enables the agent to exhibit high reactivity and real-time control. In this work, we propose a framework, MResT (Multi-Resolution Transformer), for learning generalizable language-conditioned multi-task policies that utilize sensing at different spatial and temporal resolutions using networks of varying capacities to effectively perform real time control of precise and reactive tasks. We leverage off-the-shelf pretrained vision-language models to operate on low-frequency global features along with small non-pretrained models to adapt to high frequency local feedback. Through extensive experiments in 3 domains (coarse, precise and dynamic manipulation tasks), we show that our approach significantly improves (2X on average) over recent multi-task baselines. Further, our approach generalizes well to visual and geometric variations in target objects and to varying interaction forces.

AI-controlled robotic systems pose a risk to human workers and the environment. Classical risk assessment methods cannot adequately describe such black box systems. Therefore, new methods for a dynamic risk assessment of such AI-controlled systems are required. In this paper, we introduce the concept of a new dynamic risk assessment approach for AI-controlled robotic systems. The approach pipelines five blocks: (i) a Data Logging that logs the data of the given simulation, (ii) a Skill Detection that automatically detects the executed skills with a deep learning technique, (iii) a Behavioral Analysis that creates the behavioral profile of the robotic systems, (iv) a Risk Model Generation that automatically transforms the behavioral profile and risk data containing the failure probabilities of robotic hardware components into advanced hybrid risk models, and (v) Risk Model Solvers for the numerical evaluation of the generated hybrid risk models.

Due to the continuous change in operational data, AIOps solutions suffer from performance degradation over time. Although periodic retraining is the state-of-the-art technique to preserve the failure prediction AIOps models' performance over time, this technique requires a considerable amount of labeled data to retrain. In AIOps obtaining label data is expensive since it requires the availability of domain experts to intensively annotate it. In this paper, we present McUDI, a model-centric unsupervised degradation indicator that is capable of detecting the exact moment the AIOps model requires retraining as a result of changes in data. We further show how employing McUDI in the maintenance pipeline of AIOps solutions can reduce the number of samples that require annotations with 30k for job failure prediction and 260k for disk failure prediction while achieving similar performance with periodic retraining.

Weakly-supervised segmentation (WSS) has emerged as a solution to mitigate the conflict between annotation cost and model performance by adopting sparse annotation formats (e.g., point, scribble, block, etc.). Typical approaches attempt to exploit anatomy and topology priors to directly expand sparse annotations into pseudo-labels. However, due to a lack of attention to the ambiguous edges in medical images and insufficient exploration of sparse supervision, existing approaches tend to generate erroneous and overconfident pseudo proposals in noisy regions, leading to cumulative model error and performance degradation. In this work, we propose a novel WSS approach, named ProCNS, encompassing two synergistic modules devised with the principles of progressive prototype calibration and noise suppression. Specifically, we design a Prototype-based Regional Spatial Affinity (PRSA) loss to maximize the pair-wise affinities between spatial and semantic elements, providing our model of interest with more reliable guidance. The affinities are derived from the input images and the prototype-refined predictions. Meanwhile, we propose an Adaptive Noise Perception and Masking (ANPM) module to obtain more enriched and representative prototype representations, which adaptively identifies and masks noisy regions within the pseudo proposals, reducing potential erroneous interference during prototype computation. Furthermore, we generate specialized soft pseudo-labels for the noisy regions identified by ANPM, providing supplementary supervision. Extensive experiments on three medical image segmentation tasks involving different modalities demonstrate that the proposed framework significantly outperforms representative state-of-the-art methods

Predicting the trajectory of pedestrians in crowd scenarios is indispensable in self-driving or autonomous mobile robot field because estimating the future locations of pedestrians around is beneficial for policy decision to avoid collision. It is a challenging issue because humans have different walking motions, and the interactions between humans and objects in the current environment, especially between humans themselves, are complex. Previous researchers focused on how to model human-human interactions but neglected the relative importance of interactions. To address this issue, a novel mechanism based on correntropy is introduced. The proposed mechanism not only can measure the relative importance of human-human interactions but also can build personal space for each pedestrian. An interaction module including this data-driven mechanism is further proposed. In the proposed module, the data-driven mechanism can effectively extract the feature representations of dynamic human-human interactions in the scene and calculate the corresponding weights to represent the importance of different interactions. To share such social messages among pedestrians, an interaction-aware architecture based on long short-term memory network for trajectory prediction is designed. Experiments are conducted on two public datasets. Experimental results demonstrate that our model can achieve better performance than several latest methods with good performance.

Face recognition technology has advanced significantly in recent years due largely to the availability of large and increasingly complex training datasets for use in deep learning models. These datasets, however, typically comprise images scraped from news sites or social media platforms and, therefore, have limited utility in more advanced security, forensics, and military applications. These applications require lower resolution, longer ranges, and elevated viewpoints. To meet these critical needs, we collected and curated the first and second subsets of a large multi-modal biometric dataset designed for use in the research and development (R&D) of biometric recognition technologies under extremely challenging conditions. Thus far, the dataset includes more than 350,000 still images and over 1,300 hours of video footage of approximately 1,000 subjects. To collect this data, we used Nikon DSLR cameras, a variety of commercial surveillance cameras, specialized long-rage R&D cameras, and Group 1 and Group 2 UAV platforms. The goal is to support the development of algorithms capable of accurately recognizing people at ranges up to 1,000 m and from high angles of elevation. These advances will include improvements to the state of the art in face recognition and will support new research in the area of whole-body recognition using methods based on gait and anthropometry. This paper describes methods used to collect and curate the dataset, and the dataset's characteristics at the current stage.

Multi-modal fusion is a fundamental task for the perception of an autonomous driving system, which has recently intrigued many researchers. However, achieving a rather good performance is not an easy task due to the noisy raw data, underutilized information, and the misalignment of multi-modal sensors. In this paper, we provide a literature review of the existing multi-modal-based methods for perception tasks in autonomous driving. Generally, we make a detailed analysis including over 50 papers leveraging perception sensors including LiDAR and camera trying to solve object detection and semantic segmentation tasks. Different from traditional fusion methodology for categorizing fusion models, we propose an innovative way that divides them into two major classes, four minor classes by a more reasonable taxonomy in the view of the fusion stage. Moreover, we dive deep into the current fusion methods, focusing on the remaining problems and open-up discussions on the potential research opportunities. In conclusion, what we expect to do in this paper is to present a new taxonomy of multi-modal fusion methods for the autonomous driving perception tasks and provoke thoughts of the fusion-based techniques in the future.
