Existing deep learning-based traffic forecasting models are mainly trained with MSE (or MAE) as the loss function, assuming that residuals/errors follow independent and isotropic Gaussian (or Laplacian) distribution for simplicity. However, this assumption rarely holds for real-world traffic forecasting tasks, where the unexplained residuals are often correlated in both space and time. In this study, we propose Spatiotemporal Residual Regularization by modeling residuals with a dynamic (e.g., time-varying) mixture of zero-mean multivariate Gaussian distribution with learnable spatiotemporal covariance matrices. This approach allows us to directly capture spatiotemporally correlated residuals. For scalability, we model the spatiotemporal covariance for each mixture component using a Kronecker product structure, which significantly reduces the number of parameters and computation complexity. We evaluate the performance of the proposed method on a traffic speed forecasting task. Our results show that, by properly modeling residual distribution, the proposed method not only improves the model performance but also provides interpretable structures.

通常，深度神经网络（DNN）是通过在训练阶段排除的未见数据测量的概括性能评估的。随着DNN的发展，概括性能会收敛到最新的，并且很难仅基于该指标评估DNN。对抗攻击的鲁棒性已被用作通过测量其脆弱性来评估DNN的额外指标。但是，很少有研究通过DNN中的几何形状来分析对抗性鲁棒性。在这项工作中，我们进行了一项实证研究，以分析影响对抗性攻击下模型鲁棒性的DNN的内部特性。特别是，我们提出了人口稠密区域集（PRS）的新颖概念，其中训练样本更频繁地代表在实际环境中DNN的内部特性。从对拟议概念进行的系统实验，我们提供了经验证据，以证明低PRS比与DNNS的对抗鲁棒性具有牢固的关系。我们还设计了PRS正常器利用PRS的特征来改善对抗性鲁棒性，而无需对抗训练。

“轨迹”是指由地理空间中的移动物体产生的迹线，通常由一系列按时间顺序排列的点表示，其中每个点由地理空间坐标集和时间戳组成。位置感应和无线通信技术的快速进步使我们能够收集和存储大量的轨迹数据。因此，许多研究人员使用轨迹数据来分析各种移动物体的移动性。在本文中，我们专注于“城市车辆轨迹”，这是指城市交通网络中车辆的轨迹，我们专注于“城市车辆轨迹分析”。城市车辆轨迹分析提供了前所未有的机会，可以了解城市交通网络中的车辆运动模式，包括以用户为中心的旅行经验和系统范围的时空模式。城市车辆轨迹数据的时空特征在结构上相互关联，因此，许多先前的研究人员使用了各种方法来理解这种结构。特别是，由于其强大的函数近似和特征表示能力，深度学习模型是由于许多研究人员的注意。因此，本文的目的是开发基于深度学习的城市车辆轨迹分析模型，以更好地了解城市交通网络的移动模式。特别是，本文重点介绍了两项研究主题，具有很高的必要性，重要性和适用性：下一个位置预测，以及合成轨迹生成。在这项研究中，我们向城市车辆轨迹分析提供了各种新型模型，使用深度学习。

Many recent works on understanding deep learning try to quantify how much individual data instances influence the optimization and generalization of a model, either by analyzing the behavior of the model during training or by measuring the performance gap of the model when the instance is removed from the dataset. Such approaches reveal characteristics and importance of individual instances, which may provide useful information in diagnosing and improving deep learning. However, most of the existing works on data valuation require actual training of a model, which often demands high-computational cost. In this paper, we provide a training-free data valuation score, called complexity-gap score, which is a data-centric score to quantify the influence of individual instances in generalization of two-layer overparameterized neural networks. The proposed score can quantify irregularity of the instances and measure how much each data instance contributes in the total movement of the network parameters during training. We theoretically analyze and empirically demonstrate the effectiveness of the complexity-gap score in finding 'irregular or mislabeled' data instances, and also provide applications of the score in analyzing datasets and diagnosing training dynamics.

Data-centric AI has shed light on the significance of data within the machine learning (ML) pipeline. Acknowledging its importance, various research and policies are suggested by academia, industry, and government departments. Although the capability of utilizing existing data is essential, the capability to build a dataset has become more important than ever. In consideration of this trend, we propose a "Data Management Operation and Recipes" that will guide the industry regardless of the task or domain. In other words, this paper presents the concept of DMOps derived from real-world experience. By offering a baseline for building data, we want to help the industry streamline its data operation optimally.

Generative AI has matured to a point where large-scale models can generate text that seems indistinguishable from human-written text and remarkably photorealistic images. Automatically measuring how close the distribution of generated data is to the target real data distribution is a key step in diagnosing existing models and developing better models. We present MAUVE, a family of comparison measures between pairs of distributions such as those encountered in the generative modeling of text or images. These scores are statistical summaries of divergence frontiers capturing two types of errors in generative modeling. We explore four approaches to statistically estimate these scores: vector quantization, non-parametric estimation, classifier-based estimation, and parametric Gaussian approximations. We provide statistical bounds for the vector quantization approach. Empirically, we find that the proposed scores paired with a range of $f$-divergences and statistical estimation methods can quantify the gaps between the distributions of human-written text and those of modern neural language models by correlating with human judgments and identifying known properties of the generated texts. We conclude the paper by demonstrating its applications to other AI domains and discussing practical recommendations.

In robotics and computer vision communities, extensive studies have been widely conducted regarding surveillance tasks, including human detection, tracking, and motion recognition with a camera. Additionally, deep learning algorithms are widely utilized in the aforementioned tasks as in other computer vision tasks. Existing public datasets are insufficient to develop learning-based methods that handle various surveillance for outdoor and extreme situations such as harsh weather and low illuminance conditions. Therefore, we introduce a new large-scale outdoor surveillance dataset named eXtremely large-scale Multi-modAl Sensor dataset (X-MAS) containing more than 500,000 image pairs and the first-person view data annotated by well-trained annotators. Moreover, a single pair contains multi-modal data (e.g. an IR image, an RGB image, a thermal image, a depth image, and a LiDAR scan). This is the first large-scale first-person view outdoor multi-modal dataset focusing on surveillance tasks to the best of our knowledge. We present an overview of the proposed dataset with statistics and present methods of exploiting our dataset with deep learning-based algorithms. The latest information on the dataset and our study are available at https://github.com/lge-robot-navi, and the dataset will be available for download through a server.

Efficient exploration strategy is one of essential issues in cooperative multi-agent reinforcement learning (MARL) algorithms requiring complex coordination. In this study, we introduce a new exploration method with the strangeness that can be easily incorporated into any centralized training and decentralized execution (CTDE)-based MARL algorithms. The strangeness refers to the degree of unfamiliarity of the observations that an agent visits. In order to give the observation strangeness a global perspective, it is also augmented with the the degree of unfamiliarity of the visited entire state. The exploration bonus is obtained from the strangeness and the proposed exploration method is not much affected by stochastic transitions commonly observed in MARL tasks. To prevent a high exploration bonus from making the MARL training insensitive to extrinsic rewards, we also propose a separate action-value function trained by both extrinsic reward and exploration bonus, on which a behavioral policy to generate transitions is designed based. It makes the CTDE-based MARL algorithms more stable when they are used with an exploration method. Through a comparative evaluation in didactic examples and the StarCraft Multi-Agent Challenge, we show that the proposed exploration method achieves significant performance improvement in the CTDE-based MARL algorithms.

Graph neural networks (GNNs) have received remarkable success in link prediction (GNNLP) tasks. Existing efforts first predefine the subgraph for the whole dataset and then apply GNNs to encode edge representations by leveraging the neighborhood structure induced by the fixed subgraph. The prominence of GNNLP methods significantly relies on the adhoc subgraph. Since node connectivity in real-world graphs is complex, one shared subgraph is limited for all edges. Thus, the choices of subgraphs should be personalized to different edges. However, performing personalized subgraph selection is nontrivial since the potential selection space grows exponentially to the scale of edges. Besides, the inference edges are not available during training in link prediction scenarios, so the selection process needs to be inductive. To bridge the gap, we introduce a Personalized Subgraph Selector (PS2) as a plug-and-play framework to automatically, personally, and inductively identify optimal subgraphs for different edges when performing GNNLP. PS2 is instantiated as a bi-level optimization problem that can be efficiently solved differently. Coupling GNNLP models with PS2, we suggest a brand-new angle towards GNNLP training: by first identifying the optimal subgraphs for edges; and then focusing on training the inference model by using the sampled subgraphs. Comprehensive experiments endorse the effectiveness of our proposed method across various GNNLP backbones (GCN, GraphSage, NGCF, LightGCN, and SEAL) and diverse benchmarks (Planetoid, OGB, and Recommendation datasets).

Recognizing the surrounding environment at low latency is critical in autonomous driving. In real-time environment, surrounding environment changes when processing is over. Current detection models are incapable of dealing with changes in the environment that occur after processing. Streaming perception is proposed to assess the latency and accuracy of real-time video perception. However, additional problems arise in real-world applications due to limited hardware resources, high temperatures, and other factors. In this study, we develop a model that can reflect processing delays in real time and produce the most reasonable results. By incorporating the proposed feature queue and feature select module, the system gains the ability to forecast specific time steps without any additional computational costs. Our method is tested on the Argoverse-HD dataset. It achieves higher performance than the current state-of-the-art methods(2022.10) in various environments when delayed .
