Computational and Statistical Guarantees for Tensor-on-Tensor Regression with Tensor Train Decomposition

arXiv.org Artificial Intelligence

Recently, a tensor-on-tensor (ToT) regression model has been proposed to generalize tensor recovery, encompassing scenarios like scalar-on-tensor regression and tensor-on-vector regression. However, the exponential growth in tensor complexity poses challenges for storage and computation in ToT regression. To overcome this hurdle, tensor decompositions have been introduced, with the tensor train (TT)-based ToT model proving efficient in practice due to reduced memory requirements, enhanced computational efficiency, and decreased sampling complexity. Despite these practical benefits, a disparity exists between theoretical analysis and real-world performance. In this paper, we delve into the theoretical and algorithmic aspects of the TT-based ToT regression model. Assuming the regression operator satisfies the restricted isometry property (RIP), we conduct an error analysis for the solution to a constrained least-squares optimization problem. This analysis includes upper error bound and minimax lower bound, revealing that such error bounds polynomially depend on the order $N+M$. To efficiently find solutions meeting such error bounds, we propose two optimization algorithms: the iterative hard thresholding (IHT) algorithm (employing gradient descent with TT-singular value decomposition (TT-SVD)) and the factorization approach using the Riemannian gradient descent (RGD) algorithm. When RIP is satisfied, spectral initialization facilitates proper initialization, and we establish the linear convergence rate of both IHT and RGD.


Peer Review as A Multi-Turn and Long-Context Dialogue with Role-Based Interactions

arXiv.org Artificial Intelligence

Large Language Models (LLMs) have demonstrated wide-ranging applications across various fields and have shown significant potential in the academic peer-review process. However, existing applications are primarily limited to static review generation based on submitted papers, which fail to capture the dynamic and iterative nature of real-world peer reviews. In this paper, we reformulate the peer-review process as a multi-turn, long-context dialogue, incorporating distinct roles for authors, reviewers, and decision makers. We construct a comprehensive dataset containing over 26,841 papers with 92,017 reviews collected from multiple sources, including the top-tier conference and prestigious journal. This dataset is meticulously designed to facilitate the applications of LLMs for multi-turn dialogues, effectively simulating the complete peer-review process. Furthermore, we propose a series of metrics to evaluate the performance of LLMs for each role under this reformulated peer-review setting, ensuring fair and comprehensive evaluations. We believe this work provides a promising perspective on enhancing the LLM-driven peer-review process by incorporating dynamic, role-based interactions. It aligns closely with the iterative and interactive nature of real-world academic peer review, offering a robust foundation for future research and development in this area. We open-source the dataset at https://github.com/chengtan9907/ReviewMT.


When LLMs Meet Cunning Texts: A Fallacy Understanding Benchmark for Large Language Models

arXiv.org Artificial Intelligence

Recently, Large Language Models (LLMs) make remarkable evolutions in language understanding and generation. Following this, various benchmarks for measuring all kinds of capabilities of LLMs have sprung up. In this paper, we challenge the reasoning and understanding abilities of LLMs by proposing a FaLlacy Understanding Benchmark (FLUB) containing cunning texts that are easy for humans to understand but difficult for models to grasp. Specifically, the cunning texts that FLUB focuses on mainly consist of the tricky, humorous, and misleading texts collected from the real internet environment. And we design three tasks with increasing difficulty in the FLUB benchmark to evaluate the fallacy understanding ability of LLMs. Based on FLUB, we investigate the performance of multiple representative and advanced LLMs, reflecting our FLUB is challenging and worthy of more future study. Interesting discoveries and valuable insights are achieved in our extensive experiments and detailed analyses. We hope that our benchmark can encourage the community to improve LLMs' ability to understand fallacies. Our data and codes are available at https://github.com/THUKElab/FLUB.


Liouville Flow Importance Sampler

arXiv.org Machine Learning

We present the Liouville Flow Importance Sampler (LFIS), an innovative flow-based model for generating samples from unnormalized density functions. LFIS learns a time-dependent velocity field that deterministically transports samples from a simple initial distribution to a complex target distribution, guided by a prescribed path of annealed distributions. The training of LFIS utilizes a unique method that enforces the structure of a derived partial differential equation to neural networks modeling velocity fields. By considering the neural velocity field as an importance sampler, sample weights can be computed through accumulating errors along the sample trajectories driven by neural velocity fields, ensuring unbiased and consistent estimation of statistical quantities. We demonstrate the effectiveness of LFIS through its application to a range of benchmark problems, on many of which LFIS achieved state-of-the-art performance.


Text2VP: Generative AI for Visual Programming and Parametric Modeling

arXiv.org Artificial Intelligence

The integration of generative artificial intelligence (AI) into architectural design has witnessed a significant evolution, marked by the recent advancements in AI to generate text, images, and 3D models. However, no models exist for text-to-parametric models that are used in architectural design for generating various design options, including free-form designs, and optimizing the design options. This study creates and investigates an innovative application of generative AI in parametric modeling by leveraging a customized Text-to-Visual Programming (Text2VP) GPT derived from GPT-4. The primary focus is on automating the generation of graph-based visual programming workflows, including parameters and the links among the parameters, through AI-generated scripts, accurately reflecting users' design intentions and allowing the users to change the parameter values interactively. The Text2VP GPT customization process utilizes detailed and complete documentation of the visual programming language components, example-driven few-shot learning, and specific instructional guides. Our testing demonstrates Text2VP's capability to generate working parametric models. The paper also discusses the limitations of Text2VP; for example, more complex parametric model generation introduces higher error rates. This research highlights the potential of generative AI in visual programming and parametric modeling and sets a foundation for future enhancements to handle more sophisticated and intricate modeling tasks effectively. The study aims to allow designers to create and change design models without significant effort in learning a specific programming language such as Grasshopper.


Generalist Multimodal AI: A Review of Architectures, Challenges and Opportunities

arXiv.org Artificial Intelligence

Multimodal models are expected to be a critical component to future advances in artificial intelligence. This field is starting to grow rapidly with a surge of new design elements motivated by the success of foundation models in natural language processing (NLP) and vision. It is widely hoped that further extending the foundation models to multiple modalities (e.g., text, image, video, sensor, time series, graph, etc.) will ultimately lead to generalist multimodal models, i.e. one model across different data modalities and tasks. However, there is little research that systematically analyzes recent multimodal models (particularly the ones that work beyond text and vision) with respect to the underling architecture proposed. Therefore, this work provides a fresh perspective on generalist multimodal models (GMMs) via a novel architecture and training configuration specific taxonomy. This includes factors such as Unifiability, Modularity, and Adaptability that are pertinent and essential to the wide adoption and application of GMMs. The review further highlights key challenges and prospects for the field and guide the researchers into the new advancements.

A Survey on Hybrid Motion Planning Methods for Automated Driving Systems

arXiv.org Artificial Intelligence

Motion planning is an essential element of the modular architecture of autonomous vehicles, serving as a bridge between upstream perception modules and downstream low-level control signals. Traditional motion planners were initially designed for specific Automated Driving Functions (ADFs), yet the evolving landscape of highly automated driving systems (ADS) requires motion for a wide range of ADFs, including unforeseen ones. This need has motivated the development of the ``hybrid" approach in the literature, seeking to enhance motion planning performance by combining diverse techniques, such as data-driven (learning-based) and logic-driven (analytic) methodologies. Recent research endeavours have significantly contributed to the development of more efficient, accurate, and safe hybrid methods for Tactical Decision Making (TDM) and Trajectory Generation (TG), as well as integrating these algorithms into the motion planning module. Owing to the extensive variety and potential of hybrid methods, a timely and comprehensive review of the current literature is undertaken in this survey article. We classify the hybrid motion planners based on the types of components they incorporate, such as combinations of sampling-based with optimization-based/learning-based motion planners. The comparison of different classes is conducted by evaluating the addressed challenges and limitations, as well as assessing whether they focus on TG and/or TDM. We hope this approach will enable the researchers in this field to gain in-depth insights into the identification of current trends in hybrid motion planning and shed light on promising areas for future research.


A Survey of Meta-features Used for Automated Selection of Algorithms for Black-box Single-objective Continuous Optimization

arXiv.org Artificial Intelligence

The selection of the most appropriate algorithm to solve a given problem instance, known as algorithm selection, is driven by the potential to capitalize on the complementary performance of different algorithms across sets of problem instances. However, determining the optimal algorithm for an unseen problem instance has been shown to be a challenging task, which has garnered significant attention from researchers in recent years. In this survey, we conduct an overview of the key contributions to algorithm selection in the field of single-objective continuous black-box optimization. We present ongoing work in representation learning of meta-features for optimization problem instances, algorithm instances, and their interactions. We also study machine learning models for automated algorithm selection, configuration, and performance prediction. Through this analysis, we identify gaps in the state of the art, based on which we present ideas for further development of meta-feature representations.
