Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
Fault localization is a critical process that involves identifying specific program elements responsible for program failures. Manually pinpointing these elements, such as classes, methods, or statements, which are associated with a fault is laborious and time-consuming. To overcome this challenge, various fault localization tools have been developed. These tools typically generate a ranked list of suspicious program elements. However, this information alone is insufficient. A prior study emphasized that automated fault localization should offer a rationale. In this study, we investigate the step-by-step reasoning for explainable fault localization. We explore the potential of Large Language Models (LLM) in assisting developers …

Gsword: Gpu-Accelerated Sampling For Subgraph Counting, Chang Ye, Yuchen Li, Shixuan Sun, Wentian Guo
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
Subgraph counting is a fundamental component for many downstream applications such as graph representation learning and query optimization. Since obtaining the exact count is often intractable, there have been a plethora of approximation methods on graph sampling techniques. Nonetheless, the state-of-the-art sampling methods still require massive samples to produce accurate approximations on large data graphs. We propose gSWORD, a GPU framework that leverages the massive parallelism of GPUs to accelerate iterative sampling algorithms for subgraph counting. Despite the embarrassingly parallel nature of the samples, there are unique challenges in accelerating subgraph counting due to its irregular computation logic. To address …
Reward Penalties On Augmented States For Solving Richly Constrained Rl Effectively, Jiang Hao, Tien Mai, Pradeep Varakanthan, Minh Huy Hoang
Reward Penalties On Augmented States For Solving Richly Constrained Rl Effectively, Jiang Hao, Tien Mai, Pradeep Varakanthan, Minh Huy Hoang
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
Constrained Reinforcement Learning employs trajectory-based cost constraints (such as expected cost, Value at Risk, or Conditional VaR cost) to compute safe policies. The challenge lies in handling these constraints effectively while optimizing expected reward. Existing methods convert such trajectory-based constraints into local cost constraints, but they rely on cost estimates, leading to either aggressive or conservative solutions with regards to cost. We propose an unconstrained formulation that employs reward penalties over states augmented with costs to compute safe policies. Unlike standard primal-dual methods, our approach penalizes only infeasible trajectories through state augmentation. This ensures that increasing the penalty parameter always …

Theses and Dissertations
Quantum Error Correction (QEC) enables both industrial and defense applications of quantum computing. Toric codes and other quantum Low-Density Parity-Check (LDPC) codes are promising and well-researched methods of QEC. However, their decoding cost increases exponentially with a computer’s qubit count. Neural Network (NN) decoders have been shown to decode a code’s error syndrome both accurately and fast enough for a real-time error correcting scheme. Recent key developments introduced Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) to implement a translationally equivariant decoder for a toric code. These CNN decoders both outperform NN decoders and require less training data. This research applies a Group Convolutional …
