Deep Learning (DL) methods have shown substantial efficacy in computer vision (CV) and natural language processing (NLP). Despite their proficiency, the inconsistency in input data distributions can compromise prediction reliability. This study mitigates this issue by introducing uncertainty evaluations in DL models, thereby enhancing dependability through a distribution of predictions. Our focus lies on the Vision Transformer (ViT), a DL model that harmonizes both local and global behavior. We conduct extensive experiments on the ImageNet-1K dataset, a vast resource with over a million images across 1,000 categories. ViTs, while competitive, are vulnerable to adversarial attacks, making uncertainty estimation crucial for …

Deep Learning models often exhibit undue confidence when encountering out-of-distribution (OOD) inputs, misclassifying with high confidence. The ideal outcome, in these cases, would be an "I do not know" verdict. We enhance the trustworthiness of our models through selective classification, allowing the model to abstain from making predictions when facing uncertainty. Rather than a singular prediction, the model offers a prediction distribution, enabling users to gauge the model’s trustworthiness and determine the need for human intervention. We assess uncertainty in two baseline models: a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) and a Vision Transformer (ViT). By leveraging these uncertainty values, we minimize …

Developing and training deep learning models is expensive, so software engineers have begun to reuse pre-trained deep learning models (PTMs) and fine-tune them for downstream tasks. Despite the widespread use of PTMs, we know little about the corresponding software engineering behaviors and challenges. To enable the study of software engineering with PTMs, we present the PeaTMOSS dataset: Pre-Trained Models in Open-Source Software. PeaTMOSS has three parts: a snapshot of (1) 281,638 PTMs, (2) 27,270 open-source software repositories that use PTMs, and (3) a mapping between PTMs and the projects that use them. We challenge PeaTMOSS miners to discover software engineering …

This article describes the novel Tree-based Unidirectional Neural Network (TRUNK) architecture. This architecture improves computer vision efficiency by using a hierarchy of multiple shallow Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs), instead of a single very deep CNN. We demonstrate this architecture’s versatility in performing different computer vision tasks efficiently on embedded devices. Across various computer vision tasks, the TRUNK architecture consumes 65% less energy and requires 50% less memory than representative low-power CNN architectures, e.g., MobileNet v2, when deployed on the NVIDIA Jetson Nano.

AI (Artificial Intelligence) Generative Models have attracted great attention in recent years. Generative models can be used to create new articles, visual arts, music composition, even computer programs from English specifications. Among all generative models, ChatGPT is becoming one of the most well-known since its public announcement in November 2022. GPT means {\it Generative Pre-trained Transformer}. ChatGPT is an online program that can interact with human users in text formats and is able to answer questions in many topics, including computer programming. Many computer programmers, including students and professionals, are considering the use of ChatGPT as an aid. The quality …

Mobile and embedded devices are becoming ubiquitous. Applications such as rescue with autonomous robots and event analysis on traffic cameras rely on devices with limited power supply and computational sources. Thus, the demand for efficient computer vision algorithms increases. Since 2015, we have organized the IEEE Low-Power Computer Vision Challenge to advance the state of the art in low-power computer vision. We describe the competition organizing details including the challenge design, the reference solution, the dataset, the referee system, and the evolution of the solutions from two winning teams. We examine the winning teams’ development patterns and design decisions, focusing …
