平均场游戏（MFG）是建模单个代理人与大量人群随机相互作用的集体行为的关键数学框架。在这项工作中，我们旨在解决一个具有挑战性的MFG类别，在该类别中，这些相互作用的偏好的不同性能可能无法提供给求解器，并敦促人群准确地融合到某些期望的分布中。尽管出于实际目的，这些设置动机良好，但足以使大多数（深）数值求解器瘫痪。然而，我们证明了schr \“作为熵调制的最佳运输模型的奥德桥可以推广到接受平均场结构，因此解决了这些MFG。有趣的是，这导致了一个与时间差异学习相似的结构的计算框架。因此，它为深厚的强化学习开辟了新颖的算法联系，我们利用了促进实践培训。我们表明我们的目标功能提供了必要和足够的功能平均场问题的条件。我们的方法被称为深广泛的Schr \“ Odinger Bridge（DEEPGSB），不仅在解决经典人群导航MFG方面优于先前的方法，而且还能够解决1000维的意见去极化，设置一个新的新观点高维MFG的最先进的数值求解器。我们的代码将在https://github.com/ghliu/deepgsb上提供。

Schr \“ Odinger Bridge（SB）是一个熵调控的最佳运输问题，与基于评分的生成模型（SGM）相比，在深层生成模型中，人们对其数学灵活性受到了越来越多的关注。但是，是否尚不清楚优化原理是否仍然不清楚SB的涉及深层生成模型的现代培训，这些模型通常依赖于构建对数类似目标的目标。这提出了有关SB模型作为生成应用的原则替代方案的问题。在这项工作中，我们提供了一个新颖的计算框架，用于基于前向后的随机微分方程理论的SB模型的似然训练 - 随机最佳控制中出现了一种数学方法论，将SB的最佳条件转换为一组SDE。至关重要的是，这些SDE可用于构建SB的SB目标目标，以构建SB的可能性目标。令人惊讶的是，这将SGM的特殊情况概括为特殊情况。这导致了新的Opmimi Zation原理继承了相同的SB最优性，但并没有失去现代生成训练技术的应用，我们表明所得的训练算法在生成MNIST，CEELBA和CIFAR10的现实图像方面取得了可比的结果。我们的代码可在https://github.com/ghliu/sb-fbsde上找到。

我们提出了一种新颖的二阶优化框架，用于训练新兴的深度连续时间模型，特别是神经常规方程（神经杂物杂物）。由于他们的训练已经涉及昂贵的梯度计算来通过求解向后ode，因此导出有效的二阶方法变得高度不变。然而，灵感来自最近的最佳控制（OC）对训练深网络的解释，我们表明，可以采用称为差分编程的特定连续时间oC方法，以获得同一O（1 ）内存成本。我们进一步探索了二阶衍生品的低级别表示，并表明它导致借助基于Kronecker的分子化的有效的预处理更新。由此产生的方法 - 命名的snopt - 收敛于壁钟时间中的一阶基线的速度要快得多，并且改进仍然在各种应用中保持一致，例如，图像分类，生成流量和时间序列预测。我们的框架还实现了直接的架构优化，例如神经杂物的集成时间，具有二阶反馈策略，加强了OC视角作为深度学习中优化的原则性工具。我们的代码可在https://github.com/ghliu/snopt上获得。

In this paper, we propose a robust 3D detector, named Cross Modal Transformer (CMT), for end-to-end 3D multi-modal detection. Without explicit view transformation, CMT takes the image and point clouds tokens as inputs and directly outputs accurate 3D bounding boxes. The spatial alignment of multi-modal tokens is performed implicitly, by encoding the 3D points into multi-modal features. The core design of CMT is quite simple while its performance is impressive. CMT obtains 73.0% NDS on nuScenes benchmark. Moreover, CMT has a strong robustness even if the LiDAR is missing. Code will be released at https://github.com/junjie18/CMT.

Dataset distillation has emerged as a prominent technique to improve data efficiency when training machine learning models. It encapsulates the knowledge from a large dataset into a smaller synthetic dataset. A model trained on this smaller distilled dataset can attain comparable performance to a model trained on the original training dataset. However, the existing dataset distillation techniques mainly aim at achieving the best trade-off between resource usage efficiency and model utility. The security risks stemming from them have not been explored. This study performs the first backdoor attack against the models trained on the data distilled by dataset distillation models in the image domain. Concretely, we inject triggers into the synthetic data during the distillation procedure rather than during the model training stage, where all previous attacks are performed. We propose two types of backdoor attacks, namely NAIVEATTACK and DOORPING. NAIVEATTACK simply adds triggers to the raw data at the initial distillation phase, while DOORPING iteratively updates the triggers during the entire distillation procedure. We conduct extensive evaluations on multiple datasets, architectures, and dataset distillation techniques. Empirical evaluation shows that NAIVEATTACK achieves decent attack success rate (ASR) scores in some cases, while DOORPING reaches higher ASR scores (close to 1.0) in all cases. Furthermore, we conduct a comprehensive ablation study to analyze the factors that may affect the attack performance. Finally, we evaluate multiple defense mechanisms against our backdoor attacks and show that our attacks can practically circumvent these defense mechanisms.

Few Shot Instance Segmentation (FSIS) requires models to detect and segment novel classes with limited several support examples. In this work, we explore a simple yet unified solution for FSIS as well as its incremental variants, and introduce a new framework named Reference Twice (RefT) to fully explore the relationship between support/query features based on a Transformer-like framework. Our key insights are two folds: Firstly, with the aid of support masks, we can generate dynamic class centers more appropriately to re-weight query features. Secondly, we find that support object queries have already encoded key factors after base training. In this way, the query features can be enhanced twice from two aspects, i.e., feature-level and instance-level. In particular, we firstly design a mask-based dynamic weighting module to enhance support features and then propose to link object queries for better calibration via cross-attention. After the above steps, the novel classes can be improved significantly over our strong baseline. Additionally, our new framework can be easily extended to incremental FSIS with minor modification. When benchmarking results on the COCO dataset for FSIS, gFSIS, and iFSIS settings, our method achieves a competitive performance compared to existing approaches across different shots, e.g., we boost nAP by noticeable +8.2/+9.4 over the current state-of-the-art FSIS method for 10/30-shot. We further demonstrate the superiority of our approach on Few Shot Object Detection. Code and model will be available.

This paper focuses on designing efficient models with low parameters and FLOPs for dense predictions. Even though CNN-based lightweight methods have achieved stunning results after years of research, trading-off model accuracy and constrained resources still need further improvements. This work rethinks the essential unity of efficient Inverted Residual Block in MobileNetv2 and effective Transformer in ViT, inductively abstracting a general concept of Meta-Mobile Block, and we argue that the specific instantiation is very important to model performance though sharing the same framework. Motivated by this phenomenon, we deduce a simple yet efficient modern \textbf{I}nverted \textbf{R}esidual \textbf{M}obile \textbf{B}lock (iRMB) for mobile applications, which absorbs CNN-like efficiency to model short-distance dependency and Transformer-like dynamic modeling capability to learn long-distance interactions. Furthermore, we design a ResNet-like 4-phase \textbf{E}fficient \textbf{MO}del (EMO) based only on a series of iRMBs for dense applications. Massive experiments on ImageNet-1K, COCO2017, and ADE20K benchmarks demonstrate the superiority of our EMO over state-of-the-art methods, \eg, our EMO-1M/2M/5M achieve 71.5, 75.1, and 78.4 Top-1 that surpass \textbf{SoTA} CNN-/Transformer-based models, while trading-off the model accuracy and efficiency well.

Benefiting from the intrinsic supervision information exploitation capability, contrastive learning has achieved promising performance in the field of deep graph clustering recently. However, we observe that two drawbacks of the positive and negative sample construction mechanisms limit the performance of existing algorithms from further improvement. 1) The quality of positive samples heavily depends on the carefully designed data augmentations, while inappropriate data augmentations would easily lead to the semantic drift and indiscriminative positive samples. 2) The constructed negative samples are not reliable for ignoring important clustering information. To solve these problems, we propose a Cluster-guided Contrastive deep Graph Clustering network (CCGC) by mining the intrinsic supervision information in the high-confidence clustering results. Specifically, instead of conducting complex node or edge perturbation, we construct two views of the graph by designing special Siamese encoders whose weights are not shared between the sibling sub-networks. Then, guided by the high-confidence clustering information, we carefully select and construct the positive samples from the same high-confidence cluster in two views. Moreover, to construct semantic meaningful negative sample pairs, we regard the centers of different high-confidence clusters as negative samples, thus improving the discriminative capability and reliability of the constructed sample pairs. Lastly, we design an objective function to pull close the samples from the same cluster while pushing away those from other clusters by maximizing and minimizing the cross-view cosine similarity between positive and negative samples. Extensive experimental results on six datasets demonstrate the effectiveness of CCGC compared with the existing state-of-the-art algorithms.

As one of the prevalent methods to achieve automation systems, Imitation Learning (IL) presents a promising performance in a wide range of domains. However, despite the considerable improvement in policy performance, the corresponding research on the explainability of IL models is still limited. Inspired by the recent approaches in explainable artificial intelligence methods, we proposed a model-agnostic explaining framework for IL models called R2RISE. R2RISE aims to explain the overall policy performance with respect to the frames in demonstrations. It iteratively retrains the black-box IL model from the randomized masked demonstrations and uses the conventional evaluation outcome environment returns as the coefficient to build an importance map. We also conducted experiments to investigate three major questions concerning frames' importance equality, the effectiveness of the importance map, and connections between importance maps from different IL models. The result shows that R2RISE successfully distinguishes important frames from the demonstrations.

In this paper, we study the problem of knowledge-intensive text-to-SQL, in which domain knowledge is necessary to parse expert questions into SQL queries over domain-specific tables. We formalize this scenario by building a new Chinese benchmark KnowSQL consisting of domain-specific questions covering various domains. We then address this problem by presenting formulaic knowledge, rather than by annotating additional data examples. More concretely, we construct a formulaic knowledge bank as a domain knowledge base and propose a framework (ReGrouP) to leverage this formulaic knowledge during parsing. Experiments using ReGrouP demonstrate a significant 28.2% improvement overall on KnowSQL.
