Generalized from image and language translation, graph translation aims to generate a graph in the target domain by conditioning an input graph in the source domain. This promising topic has attracted fast-increasing attention recently. Existing works are limited to either merely predicting the node attributes of graphs with fixed topology or predicting only the graph topology without considering node attributes, but cannot simultaneously predict both of them, due to substantial challenges: 1) difficulty in characterizing the interactive, iterative, and asynchronous translation process of both nodes and edges and 2) difficulty in discovering and maintaining the inherent consistency between the node and edge in predicted graphs. These challenges prevent a generic, end-to-end framework for joint node and edge attributes prediction, which is a need for real-world applications such as malware confinement in IoT networks and structural-to-functional network translation. These real-world applications highly depend on hand-crafting and ad-hoc heuristic models, but cannot sufficiently utilize massive historical data. In this paper, we termed this generic problem "multi-attributed graph translation" and developed a novel framework integrating both node and edge translations seamlessly. The novel edge translation path is generic, which is proven to be a generalization of the existing topology translation models. Then, a spectral graph regularization based on our non-parametric graph Laplacian is proposed in order to learn and maintain the consistency of the predicted nodes and edges. Finally, extensive experiments on both synthetic and real-world application data demonstrated the effectiveness of the proposed method.

We demonstrate a first example for employing deep learning in predicting frame errors for a Collaborative Intelligent Radio Network (CIRN) using a dataset collected during participation in the final scrimmages of the DARPA SC2 challenge. Four scenarios are considered based on randomizing or fixing the strategy for bandwidth and channel allocation, and either training and testing with different links or using a pilot phase for each link to train the deep neural network. Interestingly, we unveil the efficacy of randomization in improving detection accuracy and the generalization capability of certain deep neural network architectures with Bootstrap Aggregating (Bagging).

In Multi-Label Text Classification (MLTC), one sample can belong to more than one class. It is observed that most MLTC tasks, there are dependencies or correlations among labels. Existing methods tend to ignore the relationship among labels. In this paper, a graph attention network-based model is proposed to capture the attentive dependency structure among the labels. The graph attention network uses a feature matrix and a correlation matrix to capture and explore the crucial dependencies between the labels and generate classifiers for the task. The generated classifiers are applied to sentence feature vectors obtained from the text feature extraction network (BiLSTM) to enable end-to-end training. Attention allows the system to assign different weights to neighbor nodes per label, thus allowing it to learn the dependencies among labels implicitly. The results of the proposed model are validated on five real-world MLTC datasets. The proposed model achieves similar or better performance compared to the previous state-of-the-art models.

Some of them depend on human behavior; others depend on infrastructure conditions. For example, in many regions of the Russian Federation, spring and autumn temperatures can fluctuate near 0 C, which in combination with rains and high humidity could lead to ice formation on the roads. Detection of these conditions is essential for road safety. Online monitoring allows preventing road accidents by early maintenance; for example, we can use video monitoring of roads' conditions. Machine learning techniques enable detecting ice formation automatically.

Deep Neural Networks (DNN) represent the state of the art in many tasks. However, due to their overparameterization, their generalization capabilities are in doubt and are still under study. Consequently, DNN can overfit and assign overconfident predictions, as they tend to learn highly oscillating decision thresholds. This has been shown to affect the calibration of the confidences assigned to unseen data. Data Augmentation (DA) strategies have been proposed to overcome some of these limitations. One of the most popular is Mixup, which has shown a great ability to improve the accuracy of these models. Recent work has provided evidence that Mixup also improves the uncertainty quantification and calibration of DNN. In this work, we argue and provide empirical evidence that, due to its fundamentals, Mixup does not necessarily improve calibration. Based on our observations we propose a new loss function that improves the calibration, and also sometimes the accuracy. Our loss is inspired by Bayes decision theory and introduces a new training framework for designing losses for probabilistic modelling. We provide state-of-the-art accuracy with consistent improvements in calibration performance.

Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) have recently received significant research attention due to their prominent performance on a variety of graph-related learning tasks. Most of the existing works focus on either static or dynamic graph settings, addressing a particular task, e.g., node/graph classification, link prediction. In this work, we investigate the question: can GNNs be applied to continuously learning a sequence of tasks? Towards that, we explore the Continual Graph Learning (CGL) paradigm and we present the Experience Replay based framework ER-GNN for CGL to address the catastrophic forgetting problem in existing GNNs. ER-GNN stores knowledge from previous tasks as experiences and replays them when learning new tasks to mitigate the forgetting issue. We propose three experience node selection strategies: mean of features, coverage maximization and influence maximization, to guide the process of selecting experience nodes. Extensive experiments on three benchmark datasets demonstrate the effectiveness of ER-GNN and shed light on the incremental (non-Euclidean) graph structure learning.

Graph representation learning is a fundamental task of various applications, aiming to learn low-dimensional embeddings for nodes which can preserve graph topology information. However, many existing methods focus on static graphs while ignoring graph evolving patterns. Inspired by the success of graph convolutional networks(GCNs) in static graph embedding, we propose a novel k-core based temporal graph convolutional network, namely CTGCN, to learn node representations for dynamic graphs. In contrast to previous dynamic graph embedding methods, CTGCN can preserve both local connective proximity and global structural similarity in a unified framework while simultaneously capturing graph dynamics. In the proposed framework, the traditional graph convolution operation is generalized into two parts: feature transformation and feature aggregation, which gives CTGCN more flexibility and enables CTGCN to learn connective and structural information under the same framework. Experimental results on 7 real-world graphs demonstrate CTGCN outperforms existing state-of-the-art graph embedding methods in several tasks, such as link prediction and structural role classification. The source code of this work can be obtained from https://github.com/jhljx/CTGCN.

One-Shot methods have evolved into one of the most popular methods in Neural Architecture Search (NAS) due to weight sharing and single training of a supernet. However, existing methods generally suffer from two issues: predetermined number of channels in each layer which is suboptimal; and model averaging effects and poor ranking correlation caused by weight coupling and continuously expanding search space. To explicitly address these issues, in this paper, a Broadening-and-Shrinking One-Shot NAS (BS-NAS) framework is proposed, in which `broadening' refers to broadening the search space with a spring block enabling search for numbers of channels during training of the supernet; while `shrinking' refers to a novel shrinking strategy gradually turning off those underperforming operations. The above innovations broaden the search space for wider representation and then shrink it by gradually removing underperforming operations, followed by an evolutionary algorithm to efficiently search for the optimal architecture. Extensive experiments on ImageNet illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed BS-NAS as well as the state-of-the-art performance.

In the advent of the novel coronavirus epidemic since December 2019, governments and authorities have been struggling to make critical decisions under high uncertainty at their best efforts. Composite Monte-Carlo (CMC) simulation is a forecasting method which extrapolates available data which are broken down from multiple correlated/casual micro-data sources into many possible future outcomes by drawing random samples from some probability distributions. For instance, the overall trend and propagation of the infested cases in China are influenced by the temporal-spatial data of the nearby cities around the Wuhan city (where the virus is originated from), in terms of the population density, travel mobility, medical resources such as hospital beds and the timeliness of quarantine control in each city etc. Hence a CMC is reliable only up to the closeness of the underlying statistical distribution of a CMC, that is supposed to represent the behaviour of the future events, and the correctness of the composite data relationships. In this paper, a case study of using CMC that is enhanced by deep learning network and fuzzy rule induction for gaining better stochastic insights about the epidemic development is experimented. Instead of applying simplistic and uniform assumptions for a MC which is a common practice, a deep learning-based CMC is used in conjunction of fuzzy rule induction techniques. As a result, decision makers are benefited from a better fitted MC outputs complemented by min-max rules that foretell about the extreme ranges of future possibilities with respect to the epidemic.

The system can be deployed on a smartphone, achieves 91 percent top-10-accuracy in identifying over 215 different genetic syndromes, and has outperformed clinical experts in three separate experiments. The FDNA team's research paper, Identifying facial phenotypes of genetic disorders using deep learning, has been published in Nature Medicine. Using deep learning algorithms and brain-like neural networks, the Face3Gene app can predict congenital and neural developmental disorders in people through the detection of distinctive facial features in photos. Face2Gene builds on a technique the FDNA team introduced last January in the paper DeepGestalt -- Identifying Rare Genetic Syndromes Using Deep Learning. Researchers started by training an AI system to distinguish two conditions which cause distinct facial features -- Cornelia de Langs syndrome and Angelman syndrome -- from other, similar conditions.
