Appendix382 AAdditional Experiments3383 A.1 Experiments on the ETT datasets384 In the main body, we present a comparison of the benchmark methods on the ETTm2 dataset. In this385 section, we extend our analysis to the remaining three ETT datasets, namely ETTh1, ETTh2, and386 ETTm1, as summarized in Table 7. Our experimental results reveal that Basisformer outperforms all387 other methods in terms of MSE and MAE. In all experiments, lower MSE values indicate better model performance, and we present the best results in boldface. Experimental results with longer length input setting391 Throughout our research, we maintain consistency in our experimental settings by fixing the input392 length to be 96(with a reduced input length of 36for the illness dataset), instead of using a longer393 length.

Pre-trained vision-language models (VLMs) such as CLIP have shown excellent performance for zero-shot classification. Based on CLIP, recent methods design various learnable prompts to evaluate the zero-shot generalization capability on a base-to-novel setting. This setting assumes test samples are already divided into either base or novel classes, limiting its application to realistic scenarios. In this paper, we focus on a more challenging and practical setting: generalized zero-shot learning (GZSL), i.e., testing with no information about the base/novel division. To address this challenging zero-shot problem, we introduce two unique designs that enable us to classify an image without the need of knowing whether it comes from seen or unseen classes.

It also tolerates no prediction errors on the labeled nodes, so the trade-off parameter can be set to infinity. Local and Global Consistency (LGC) [82] relaxes the GRF method by eliminating the restriction of zero empirical risk on labeled nodes and exploits the normalized Laplacian matrix for smoothing instead. Random Walk Smoothing [83] extends LRC for directed graphs by indirectly operating LGC on a modified undirected graph with a new normalized Laplacian matrix L . Tikhonov Smoothing [4] only uses the labeled nodes in the quadratic error term. Hub & Authority Smoothing [84] proposes another random-walk-based strategy on directed graphs that is motivated by the hub and authority web model. Its smoothing matrix is more complex with two underlying Laplacian matrices LA,LH for in-links and out-links.

Graph-based semi-supervised learning (GSSL) serves as a powerful tool to model the underlying manifold structures of samples in high-dimensional spaces. It involves two phases: constructing an affinity graph from available data and inferring labels for unlabeled nodes on this graph. While numerous algorithms have been developed for label inference, the crucial graph construction phase has received comparatively less attention, despite its significant influence on the subsequent phase. In this paper, we present an optimal asymmetric graph structure for the label inference phase with theoretical motivations. Unlike existing graph construction methods, we differentiate the distinct roles that labeled nodes and unlabeled nodes could play.

Approximate nearest neighbor (ANN) search is a key component in many modern machine learning pipelines; recent use cases include retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) and vector databases. Clustering-based ANN algorithms, that use score computation methods based on product quantization (PQ), are often used in industrial-scale applications due to their scalability and suitability for distributed and disk-based implementations. However, they have slower query times than the leading graph-based ANN algorithms. In this work, we propose a new supervised score computation method based on the observation that inner product approximation is a multivariate (multi-output) regression problem that can be solved efficiently by reduced-rank regression. Our experiments show that on modern high-dimensional data sets, the proposed reduced-rank regression (RRR) method is superior to PQ in both query latency and memory usage. We also introduce LoRANN1, a clustering-based ANN library that leverages the proposed score computation method. LoRANNis competitive with the leading graph-based algorithms and outperforms the state-of-the-art GPUANN methods on high-dimensional data sets.
