Metaformer Baselines For Vision, Weihao Yu, Chenyang Si, Pan Zhou, Mi Luo, Yichen Zhou, Jiashi Feng, Shuicheng Yan, Xinchao Wang

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

Abstract—MetaFormer, the abstracted architecture of Transformer, has been found to play a significant role in achieving competitive performance. In this paper, we further explore the capacity of MetaFormer, again, by migrating our focus away from the token mixer design: we introduce several baseline models under MetaFormer using the most basic or common mixers, and demonstrate their gratifying performance. We summarize our observations as follows: (1) MetaFormer ensures solid lower bound of performance. By merely adopting identity mapping as the token mixer, the MetaFormer model, termed IdentityFormer, achieves >80% accuracy on ImageNet-1K. (2) MetaFormer works well with arbitrary token mixers. When …

A Survey On Aspect-Based Sentiment Analysis: Tasks, Methods, And Challenges, Wenxuan Zhang, Xin Li, Yang Deng, Lidong Bing, Wai Lam Nov 2023

A Survey On Aspect-Based Sentiment Analysis: Tasks, Methods, And Challenges, Wenxuan Zhang, Xin Li, Yang Deng, Lidong Bing, Wai Lam

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

As an important fine-grained sentiment analysis problem, aspect-based sentiment analysis (ABSA), aiming to analyze and understand people's opinions at the aspect level, has been attracting considerable interest in the last decade. To handle ABSA in different scenarios, various tasks are introduced for analyzing different sentiment elements and their relations, including the aspect term, aspect category, opinion term, and sentiment polarity. Unlike early ABSA works focusing on a single sentiment element, many compound ABSA tasks involving multiple elements have been studied in recent years for capturing more complete aspect-level sentiment information. However, a systematic review of various ABSA tasks and their …

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

This work demonstrates the VGGlass system, which simultaneously interprets human instructions for a target acquisition task and determines the precise 3D positions of both user and the target object. This is achieved by utilizing LiDARs mounted in the infrastructure and a smart glass device worn by the user. Key to our system is the union of LiDAR-based localization termed LiLOC and a multi-modal visual grounding approach termed RealG(2)In-Lite. To demonstrate the system, we use Intel RealSense L515 cameras and a Microsoft HoloLens 2, as the user devices. VGGlass is able to: a) track the user in real-time in a global …

Constructing Cyber-Physical System Testing Suites Using Active Sensor Fuzzing, Fan. Zhang, Qianmei. Wu, Bohan. Xuan, Yuqi. Chen, Wei. Lin, Christopher M. Poskitt, Jun Sun, Binbin. Chen Oct 2023

Constructing Cyber-Physical System Testing Suites Using Active Sensor Fuzzing, Fan. Zhang, Qianmei. Wu, Bohan. Xuan, Yuqi. Chen, Wei. Lin, Christopher M. Poskitt, Jun Sun, Binbin. Chen

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

Cyber-physical systems (CPSs) automating critical public infrastructure face a pervasive threat of attack, motivating research into different types of countermeasures. Assessing the effectiveness of these countermeasures is challenging, however, as benchmarks are difficult to construct manually, existing automated testing solutions often make unrealistic assumptions, and blindly fuzzing is ineffective at finding attacks due to the enormous search spaces and resource requirements. In this work, we propose active sensor fuzzing , a fully automated approach for building test suites without requiring any a prior knowledge about a CPS. Our approach employs active learning techniques. Applied to a real-world water treatment system, …

Designing A Human-Centered Intelligent System To Monitor & Explain Abnormal Patterns Of Older Adults, Min Hun Lee, Daniel P. Siewiorek, Alexandre Bernardino Oct 2023

Designing A Human-Centered Intelligent System To Monitor & Explain Abnormal Patterns Of Older Adults, Min Hun Lee, Daniel P. Siewiorek, Alexandre Bernardino

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

Older adult care technologies are increasingly explored to support the independent living of older adults by monitoring their abnormal activities and informing caregivers to provide intervention if necessary. However, the adoption of these technologies remains challenging due to several factors (e.g. lack of usability). In this work, we present a human-centered, intelligent system for older adult care. Our proposed designs of the system were created based on the findings from a focus group session with caregivers. This system monitors the abnormal activities of an older adult using wireless motion sensors and machine learning models. In addition, unlike previous work that …

Owner-Free Distributed Symmetric Searchable Encryption Supporting Conjunctive Queries, Qiuyun Tong, Xinghua Li, Yinbin Miao, Yunwei Wang, Ximeng Liu, Robert H. Deng Oct 2023

Owner-Free Distributed Symmetric Searchable Encryption Supporting Conjunctive Queries, Qiuyun Tong, Xinghua Li, Yinbin Miao, Yunwei Wang, Ximeng Liu, Robert H. Deng

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

Symmetric Searchable Encryption (SSE), as an ideal primitive, can ensure data privacy while supporting retrieval over encrypted data. However, existing multi-user SSE schemes require the data owner to share the secret key with all query users or always be online to generate search tokens. While there are some solutions to this problem, they have at least one weakness, such as non-supporting conjunctive query, result decryption assistance of the data owner, and unauthorized access. To solve the above issues, we propose an Owner-free Distributed Symmetric searchable encryption supporting Conjunctive query (ODiSC). Specifically, we first evaluate the Learning-Parity-with-Noise weak Pseudorandom Function (LPN-wPRF) …

Deep Video Demoireing Via Compact Invertible Dyadic Decomposition, Yuhui Quan, Haoran Huang, Shengfeng He, Ruotao Xu Oct 2023

Deep Video Demoireing Via Compact Invertible Dyadic Decomposition, Yuhui Quan, Haoran Huang, Shengfeng He, Ruotao Xu

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

Removing moire patterns from videos recorded on screens or complex textures is known as video demoireing. It is a challenging task as both structures and textures of an image usually exhibit strong periodic patterns, which thus are easily confused with moire patterns and can be significantly erased in the removal process. By interpreting video demoireing as a multi-frame decomposition problem, we propose a compact invertible dyadic network called CIDNet that progressively decouples latent frames and the moire patterns from an input video sequence. Using a dyadic cross-scale coupling structure with coupling layers tailored for multi-scale processing, CIDNet aims at disentangling …

Diffuse3d: Wide-Angle 3d Photography Via Bilateral Diffusion, Yutao Jiang, Yang Zhou, Yuan Liang, Wenxi Liu, Jianbo Jiao, Yuhui Quan, Shengfeng He Oct 2023

Diffuse3d: Wide-Angle 3d Photography Via Bilateral Diffusion, Yutao Jiang, Yang Zhou, Yuan Liang, Wenxi Liu, Jianbo Jiao, Yuhui Quan, Shengfeng He

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

This paper aims to resolve the challenging problem of wide-angle novel view synthesis from a single image, a.k.a. wide-angle 3D photography. Existing approaches rely on local context and treat them equally to inpaint occluded RGB and depth regions, which fail to deal with large-region occlusion (i.e., observing from an extreme angle) and foreground layers might blend into background inpainting. To address the above issues, we propose Diffuse3D which employs a pre-trained diffusion model for global synthesis, while amending the model to activate depth-aware inference. Our key insight is to alter the convolution mechanism in the denoising process. We inject depth …

Problems In Microservice Development: Supporting Visualisation, Oscar Manglaras, Alex Farkas, Peter Fule, Christoph Treude, Markus Wagner Oct 2023

Problems In Microservice Development: Supporting Visualisation, Oscar Manglaras, Alex Farkas, Peter Fule, Christoph Treude, Markus Wagner

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

In microservice architectures, developers can face significant problems understanding the structure of the system and how the different microservices interact. This difficulty results from the distributed nature of the system, and the abundance of inter-service communication within the architecture. We want to determine if network visualisations can address these problems given their ability to convey complex topologies. However, to identify what architectural characteristics should be visualised, and how this should be done, we must first determine the needs of microservice developers. This paper identifies and presents the impact and frequency of problems faced by a cohort of microservice developers using …

Rigid: Recurrent Gan Inversion And Editing Of Real Face Videos, Yangyang Xu, Shengfeng He, Kwan-Yee K. Wong, Pingluo Luo Oct 2023

Rigid: Recurrent Gan Inversion And Editing Of Real Face Videos, Yangyang Xu, Shengfeng He, Kwan-Yee K. Wong, Pingluo Luo

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

GAN inversion is indispensable for applying the powerful editability of GAN to real images. However, existing methods invert video frames individually often leading to undesired inconsistent results over time. In this paper, we propose a unified recurrent framework, named Recurrent vIdeo GAN Inversion and eDiting (RIGID), to explicitly and simultaneously enforce temporally coherent GAN inversion and facial editing of real videos. Our approach models the temporal relations between current and previous frames from three aspects. To enable a faithful real video reconstruction, we first maximize the inversion fidelity and consistency by learning a temporal compensated latent code. Second, we observe …

Masked Diffusion Transformer Is A Strong Image Synthesizer, Shanghua Gao, Pan Zhou, Ming-Ming Cheng, Shuicheng Yan Oct 2023

Masked Diffusion Transformer Is A Strong Image Synthesizer, Shanghua Gao, Pan Zhou, Ming-Ming Cheng, Shuicheng Yan

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

Despite its success in image synthesis, we observe that diffusion probabilistic models (DPMs) often lack contextual reasoning ability to learn the relations among object parts in an image, leading to a slow learning process. To solve this issue, we propose a Masked Diffusion Transformer (MDT) that introduces a mask latent modeling scheme to explicitly enhance the DPMs’ ability to contextual relation learning among object semantic parts in an image. During training, MDT operates in the latent space to mask certain tokens. Then, an asymmetric masking diffusion transformer is designed to predict masked tokens from unmasked ones while maintaining the diffusion …

Evlog: Identifying Anomalous Logs Over Software Evolution, Yintong Huo, Cheryl Lee, Yuxin Su, Shiwen Shan, Jinyang Liu, Michael Lyu Oct 2023

Evlog: Identifying Anomalous Logs Over Software Evolution, Yintong Huo, Cheryl Lee, Yuxin Su, Shiwen Shan, Jinyang Liu, Michael Lyu

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

Software logs record system activities, aiding maintainers in identifying the underlying causes for failures and enabling prompt mitigation actions. However, maintainers need to inspect a large volume of daily logs to identify the anomalous logs that reveal failure details for further diagnosis. Thus, how to automatically distinguish these anomalous logs from normal logs becomes a critical problem. Existing approaches alleviate the burden on software maintainers, but they are built upon an improper yet critical assumption: logging statements in the software remain unchanged. While software keeps evolving, our empirical study finds that evolving software brings three challenges: log parsing errors, evolving …

Instance-Specific Algorithm Configuration Via Unsupervised Deep Graph Clustering, Wen Song, Yi Liu, Zhiguang Cao, Yaoxin Wu, Qiqiang Li Oct 2023

Instance-Specific Algorithm Configuration Via Unsupervised Deep Graph Clustering, Wen Song, Yi Liu, Zhiguang Cao, Yaoxin Wu, Qiqiang Li

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

Instance-specific Algorithm Configuration (AC) methods are effective in automatically generating high-quality algorithm parameters for heterogeneous NP-hard problems from multiple sources. However, existing works rely on manually designed features to describe training instances, which are simple numerical attributes and cannot fully capture structural differences. Targeting at Mixed-Integer Programming (MIP) solvers, this paper proposes a novel instances-specific AC method based on end-to-end deep graph clustering. By representing an MIP instance as a bipartite graph, a random walk algorithm is designed to extract raw features with both numerical and structural information from the instance graph. Then an auto-encoder is designed to learn dense …

Ciri: Curricular Inactivation For Residue-Aware One-Shot Video Inpainting, Weiying Zheng, Cheng Xu, Xuemiao Xu, Wenxi Liu, Shengfeng He Oct 2023

Ciri: Curricular Inactivation For Residue-Aware One-Shot Video Inpainting, Weiying Zheng, Cheng Xu, Xuemiao Xu, Wenxi Liu, Shengfeng He

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

Video inpainting aims at filling in missing regions of a video. However, when dealing with dynamic scenes with camera or object movements, annotating the inpainting target becomes laborious and impractical. In this paper, we resolve the one-shot video inpainting problem in which only one annotated first frame is provided. A naive solution is to propagate the initial target to the other frames with techniques like object tracking. In this context, the main obstacles are the unreliable propagation and the partially inpainted artifacts due to the inaccurate mask. For the former problem, we propose curricular inactivation to replace the hard masking …

Supporting Artefact Awareness In Partially-Replicated Workspaces, Emran Poh, Anthony Tang, Jenanie S. Lee, Zhao Shengdong Oct 2023

Supporting Artefact Awareness In Partially-Replicated Workspaces, Emran Poh, Anthony Tang, Jenanie S. Lee, Zhao Shengdong

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

Using Cross Reality (CR) approaches for remote collaboration will often result in partially-replicated workspaces. Here, workspace artefacts are not equally accessible - i.e. a physical artefact may only be manipulated by one collaborator - and in general, the artefacts become desynchronised over time. In this paper, we introduce a framework for artefact awareness that can help collaborators maintain an understanding of each others' manipulations with workspace artefacts. We illustrate our design explorations through sketches, and outline how we aim to study the effectiveness and utility of artefact awareness in cross reality remote collaboration. In our work, we expect to show …

Wait, Wasn't That Code Here Before? Detecting Outdated Software Documentation, Wen Siang Tan, Markus Wagner, Christoph Treude Oct 2023

Wait, Wasn't That Code Here Before? Detecting Outdated Software Documentation, Wen Siang Tan, Markus Wagner, Christoph Treude

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

Encountering outdated documentation is not a rare occurrence for developers and users in the software engineering community. To ensure that software documentation is up-to-date, developers often have to manually check whether the documentation needs to be updated whenever changes are made to the source code. In our previous work, we proposed an approach to automatically detect outdated code element references in software repositories and found that more than a quarter of the 1000 most popular projects on GitHub contained at least one outdated reference. In this paper, we present a GitHub Actions tool that builds on our previous work’s approach …

Understanding The Effect Of Counterfactual Explanations On Trust And Reliance On Ai For Human-Ai Collaborative Clinical Decision Making, Min Hun Lee, Chong Jun Chew Oct 2023

Understanding The Effect Of Counterfactual Explanations On Trust And Reliance On Ai For Human-Ai Collaborative Clinical Decision Making, Min Hun Lee, Chong Jun Chew

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

Artificial intelligence (AI) is increasingly being considered to assist human decision-making in high-stake domains (e.g. health). However, researchers have discussed an issue that humans can over-rely on wrong suggestions of the AI model instead of achieving human AI complementary performance. In this work, we utilized salient feature explanations along with what-if, counterfactual explanations to make humans review AI suggestions more analytically to reduce overreliance on AI and explored the effect of these explanations on trust and reliance on AI during clinical decision-making. We conducted an experiment with seven therapists and ten laypersons on the task of assessing post-stroke survivors' quality …

Ubisurface: A Robotic Touch Surface For Supporting Mid-Air Planar Interactions In Room-Scale Vr, Ryota Gomi, Kazuki Takashima, Yuki Onishi, Kazuyuki Fujita, Yoshifumi Kitamura

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

Room-scale VR has been considered an alternative to physical office workspaces. For office activities, users frequently require planar input methods, such as typing or handwriting, to quickly record annotations to virtual content. However, current off-The-shelf VR HMD setups rely on mid-Air interactions, which can cause arm fatigue and decrease input accuracy. To address this issue, we propose UbiSurface, a robotic touch surface that can automatically reposition itself to physically present a virtual planar input surface (VR whiteboard, VR canvas, etc.) to users and to permit them to achieve accurate and fatigue-less input while walking around a virtual room. We design …

Residual Pattern Learning For Pixel-Wise Out-Of-Distribution Detection In Semantic Segmentation, Y Liu, Choubo Ding, Yu Tian, Guansong Pang, Vasileios Belagiannis, Ian Reid, Gustavo Carneiro Oct 2023

Residual Pattern Learning For Pixel-Wise Out-Of-Distribution Detection In Semantic Segmentation, Y Liu, Choubo Ding, Yu Tian, Guansong Pang, Vasileios Belagiannis, Ian Reid, Gustavo Carneiro

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

Semantic segmentation models classify pixels into a set of known ("in-distribution") visual classes. When deployed in an open world, the reliability of these models depends on their ability to not only classify in-distribution pixels but also to detect out-of-distribution (OoD) pixels. Historically, the poor OoD detection performance of these models has motivated the design of methods based on model re-training using synthetic training images that include OoD visual objects. Although successful, these re-trained methods have two issues: 1) their in-distribution segmentation accuracy may drop during re-training, and 2) their OoD detection accuracy does not generalise well to new contexts (e.g., …

Feature Prediction Diffusion Model For Video Anomaly Detection, Cheng Yan, Shiyu Zhang, Yang Liu, Guansong Pang, Wenjun Wang Oct 2023

Feature Prediction Diffusion Model For Video Anomaly Detection, Cheng Yan, Shiyu Zhang, Yang Liu, Guansong Pang, Wenjun Wang

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

Anomaly detection in the video is an important research area and a challenging task in real applications. Due to the unavailability of large-scale annotated anomaly events, most existing video anomaly detection (VAD) methods focus on learning the distribution of normal samples to detect the substantially deviated samples as anomalies. To well learn the distribution of normal motion and appearance, many auxiliary networks are employed to extract foreground object or action information. These high-level semantic features effectively filter the noise from the background to decrease its influence on detection models. However, the capability of these extra semantic models heavily affects the …

Anomaly Detection Under Distribution Shift, Tri Cao, Jiawen Zhu, Guansong Pang Oct 2023

Anomaly Detection Under Distribution Shift, Tri Cao, Jiawen Zhu, Guansong Pang

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

Anomaly detection (AD) is a crucial machine learning task that aims to learn patterns from a set of normal training samples to identify abnormal samples in test data. Most existing AD studies assume that the training and test data are drawn from the same data distribution, but the test data can have large distribution shifts arising in many real-world applications due to different natural variations such as new lighting conditions, object poses, or background appearances, rendering existing AD methods ineffective in such cases. In this paper, we consider the problem of anomaly detection under distribution shift and establish performance benchmarks …

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

The automation of an increasingly large number of software engineering tasks is becoming possible thanks to Machine Learning (ML). One foundational building block in the application of ML to software artifacts is the representation of these artifacts ( e.g. , source code or executable code) into a form that is suitable for learning. Traditionally, researchers and practitioners have relied on manually selected features, based on expert knowledge, for the task at hand. Such knowledge is sometimes imprecise and generally incomplete. To overcome this limitation, many studies have leveraged representation learning, delegating to ML itself the job of automatically devising suitable …

Stprivacy: Spatio-Temporal Privacy-Preserving Action Recognition, Ming Li, Xiangyu Xu, Hehe Fan, Pan Zhou, Jun Liu, Jia-Wei Liu, Jiahe Li, Jussi Keppo, Mike Zheng Shou, Shuicheng Yan Oct 2023

Stprivacy: Spatio-Temporal Privacy-Preserving Action Recognition, Ming Li, Xiangyu Xu, Hehe Fan, Pan Zhou, Jun Liu, Jia-Wei Liu, Jiahe Li, Jussi Keppo, Mike Zheng Shou, Shuicheng Yan

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

Existing methods of privacy-preserving action recognition (PPAR) mainly focus on frame-level (spatial) privacy removal through 2D CNNs. Unfortunately, they have two major drawbacks. First, they may compromise temporal dynamics in input videos, which are critical for accurate action recognition. Second, they are vulnerable to practical attacking scenarios where attackers probe for privacy from an entire video rather than individual frames. To address these issues, we propose a novel framework STPrivacy to perform video-level PPAR. For the first time, we introduce vision Transformers into PPAR by treating a video as a tubelet sequence, and accordingly design two complementary mechanisms, i.e., sparsification …

Achieving Efficient And Privacy-Preserving Neural Network Training And Prediction In Cloud Environments, Chuan Zhang, Chenfei Hu, Tong Wu, Liehuang Zhu, Ximeng Liu Oct 2023

Achieving Efficient And Privacy-Preserving Neural Network Training And Prediction In Cloud Environments, Chuan Zhang, Chenfei Hu, Tong Wu, Liehuang Zhu, Ximeng Liu

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

The neural network has been widely used to train predictive models for applications such as image processing, disease prediction, and face recognition. To produce more accurate models, powerful third parties (e.g., clouds) are usually employed to collect data from a large number of users, which however may raise concerns about user privacy. In this paper, we propose an Efficient and Privacy-preserving Neural Network scheme, named EPNN, to deal with the privacy issues in cloud-based neural networks. EPNN is designed based on a two-cloud model and techniques of data perturbation and additively homomorphic cryptosystem. This scheme enables two clouds to cooperatively …

Using The Typescript Compiler To Fix Erroneous Node.Js Snippets, Brittany Reid, Christoph Treude, Markus Wagner Oct 2023

Using The Typescript Compiler To Fix Erroneous Node.Js Snippets, Brittany Reid, Christoph Treude, Markus Wagner

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

Most online code snippets do not run. This means that developers looking to reuse code from online sources must manually find and fix errors. We present an approach for automatically evaluating and correcting errors in Node.js code snippets: Node Code Correction (NCC). NCC leverages the ability of the TypeScript compiler to generate errors and inform code corrections through the combination of TypeScript’s builtin codefixes, our own targeted fixes, and deletion of erroneous lines. Compared to existing approaches using linters, our findings suggest that NCC is capable of detecting a larger number of errors per snippet and more error types, and …

Hrgcn: Heterogeneous Graph-Level Anomaly Detection With Hierarchical Relation-Augmented Graph Neural Networks, Jiaxi Li, Guansong Pang, Ling Chen, Mohammad-Reza Namazi-Rad Oct 2023

Hrgcn: Heterogeneous Graph-Level Anomaly Detection With Hierarchical Relation-Augmented Graph Neural Networks, Jiaxi Li, Guansong Pang, Ling Chen, Mohammad-Reza Namazi-Rad

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

This work considers the problem of heterogeneous graph-level anomaly detection. Heterogeneous graphs are commonly used to represent behaviours between different types of entities in complex industrial systems for capturing as much information about the system operations as possible. Detecting anomalous heterogeneous graphs from a large set of system behaviour graphs is crucial for many real-world applications like online web/mobile service and cloud access control. To address the problem, we propose HRGCN, an unsupervised deep heterogeneous graph neural network, to model complex heterogeneous relations between different entities in the system for effectively identifying these anomalous behaviour graphs. HRGCN trains a hierarchical …

Voucher Abuse Detection With Prompt-Based Fine-Tuning On Graph Neural Networks, Zhihao Wen, Yuan Fang, Yihan Liu, Yang Guo, Shuji Hao Oct 2023

Voucher Abuse Detection With Prompt-Based Fine-Tuning On Graph Neural Networks, Zhihao Wen, Yuan Fang, Yihan Liu, Yang Guo, Shuji Hao

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

Voucher abuse detection is an important anomaly detection problem in E-commerce. While many GNN-based solutions have emerged, the supervised paradigm depends on a large quantity of labeled data. A popular alternative is to adopt self-supervised pre-training using label-free data, and further fine-tune on a downstream task with limited labels. Nevertheless, the "pre-train, fine-tune" paradigm is often plagued by the objective gap between pre-training and downstream tasks. Hence, we propose VPGNN, a prompt-based fine-tuning framework on GNNs for voucher abuse detection. We design a novel graph prompting function to reformulate the downstream task into a similar template as the pretext task …

Robust Bidirectional Poly-Matching, Ween Jiann Lee, Maksim Tkachenko, Hady Wirawan Lauw Oct 2023

Robust Bidirectional Poly-Matching, Ween Jiann Lee, Maksim Tkachenko, Hady Wirawan Lauw

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

A fundamental problem in many scenarios is to match entities across two data sources. It is frequently presumed in prior work that entities to be matched are of comparable granularity. In this work, we address one-to-many or poly-matching in the scenario where entities have varying granularity. A distinctive feature of our problem is its bidirectional nature, where the 'one' or the 'many' could come from either source arbitrarily. Moreover, to deal with diverse entity representations that give rise to noisy similarity values, we incorporate novel notions of receptivity and reclusivity into a robust matching objective. As the optimal solution to …

Boosting Adversarial Training In Safety-Critical Systems Through Boundary Data Selection, Yifan Jia, Christopher M. Poskitt, Peixin Zhang, Jingyi Wang, Jun Sun, Sudipta Chattopadhyay

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

AI-enabled collaborative robots are designed to be used in close collaboration with humans, thus requiring stringent safety standards and quick response times. Adversarial attacks pose a significant threat to the deep learning models of these systems, making it crucial to develop methods to improve the models' robustness against them. Adversarial training is one approach to improve their robustness: it works by augmenting the training data with adversarial examples. This, unfortunately, comes with the cost of increased computational overhead and extended training times. In this work, we balance the need for additional adversarial data with the goal of minimizing the training …
