A.1 Cellular WLResults In this section, we assume basic familiarity with the WL test and its higher-order variants. For an introduction to these topics, we refer the reader to the survey of Sato [62]. We begin by introducing a few useful concepts. A cellular colouring is a map c that maps a cell complex X and one of its cells to a colour from a fixed colour palette. Let X,Y be two regular cell complexes and c a cellular colouring. We say that X,Y are c-similar, denoted by cX = cY, if the number of cells in X coloured with a given colour equals the number of cells in Y with the same colour. Otherwise, we have cX 6= cY . We emphasise that in this paper we are interested only in colourings c with the property that any two isomorphic cell complexes are c-similar. A cellular colouring c refines a cellular colouring d, denoted by c v d, if for all cell complexes X and Y and all 2 PX and 2 PY, cX = cY implies dX = dY . Additionally, if d v c, we say the two colourings are equivalent and we represent it by c d. We state the following result from Bodnar et al. [8] about simplicial colourings, which we translate here directly to cell complexes. The proof is however, identical, and we refer the reader to their work for that. Let X,Y be any regular cellular complexes with A PX and B PY . Consider two cellular colourings c,d such that c v d.

Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) are limited in their expressive power, struggle with long-range interactions and lack a principled way to model higher-order structures. These problems can be attributed to the strong coupling between the computational graph and the input graph structure. The recently proposed Message Passing Simplicial Networks naturally decouple these elements by performing message passing on the clique complex of the graph. Nevertheless, these models can be severely constrained by the rigid combinatorial structure of Simplicial Complexes (SCs). In this work, we extend recent theoretical results on SCs to regular Cell Complexes, topological objects that flexibly subsume SCs and graphs.

The capabilities of natural language models trained on large-scale data have increased immensely over the past few years. Open source libraries such as HuggingFace have made these models easily available and accessible. While prior research has identified biases in large language models, this paper considers biases contained in the most popular versions of these models when applied'out-of-the-box' for downstream tasks. We focus on generative language models as they are well-suited for extracting biases inherited from training data. Specifically, we conduct an indepth analysis of GPT-2, which is the most downloaded text generation model on HuggingFace, with over half a million downloads per month. We assess biases related to occupational associations for different protected categories by intersecting gender with religion, sexuality, ethnicity, political affiliation, and continental name origin. Using a template-based data collection pipeline, we collect 396K sentence completions made by GPT-2 and find: (i) The machine-predicted jobs are less diverse and more stereotypical for women than for men, especially for intersections; (ii) Intersectional interactions are highly relevant for occupational associations, which we quantify by fitting 262 logistic models; (iii) For most occupations, GPT-2 reflects the skewed gender and ethnicity distribution found in USLabor Bureau data, and even pulls the societally-skewed distribution towards gender parity in cases where its predictions deviate from real labor market observations. This raises the normative question of what language models should learn - whether they should reflect or correct for existing inequalities.

We introduce MQ-Det, an efficient architecture and pre-training strategy design to utilize both textual description with open-set generalization and visual exemplars with rich description granularity as category queries, namely, Multi-modal Queried object Detection, for real-world detection with both open-vocabulary categories and various granularity.
