Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) have demonstrated superiority in learning patterns, but are sensitive to label noises and may overfit noisy labels during training. The early stopping strategy averts updating CNNs during the early training phase and is widely employed in the presence of noisy labels. Motivated by biological findings that the amplitude spectrum (AS) and phase spectrum (PS) in the frequency domain play different roles in the animal's vision system, we observe that PS, which captures more semantic information, can increase the robustness of DNNs to label noise, more so than AS can. We thus propose early stops at different times for AS and PS by disentangling the features of some layer(s) into AS and PS using Discrete Fourier Transform (DFT) during training. Our proposed Phase-AmplituDe DisentangLed Early Stopping (PADDLES) method is shown to be effective on both synthetic and real-world label-noise datasets. PADDLES outperforms other early stopping methods and obtains state-of-the-art performance.

营销活动是一系列战略活动，可以促进企业的目标。在真正的工业场景中，营销活动的效果预测非常复杂且具有挑战性，因为通常从观察数据中学到了先验知识，而没有任何营销活动干预。此外，每个主题始终在几个营销活动的干预下同时受到干扰。因此，我们无法轻松解析和评估单个营销活动的效果。据我们所知，目前尚无有效的方法来解决此类问题，即，基于具有多个相互缠绕事件的层次结构对个体级别的预测任务进行建模。在本文中，我们对效果预测任务中涉及的基础解析树的结构进行了深入的分析，并进一步建立了一个层次结构胶囊预测网络（HAPNET）来预测营销活动的影响。基于合成数据和实际数据的广泛结果证明了我们模型比最新方法的优越性，并在实际工业应用中表现出显着的实用性。

黑盒攻击通常面临两个问题：可转移性差和无法逃避对抗性防御。为了克服这些缺点，我们通过平滑良性图像中纹理的线性结构（称为advsmo）来创建一种原始方法来生成对抗示例。我们在不依赖目标模型的任何内部信息的情况下构建对抗性示例，并设计不可感知的高攻击成功率约束，以指导Gabor滤波器选择适当的角度和鳞片以使输入图像的线性纹理平滑以生成对抗性示例。从上面的设计概念中受益，Advsmo将产生具有强大可转移性和稳固性的对抗性例子。最后，与八种目标模型相比，与四种高级黑盒对抗攻击方法相比，结果表明，ADVSMO在CIFAR-10上将平均攻击成功率提高了9％，而小型Imimagenet数据集则将平均攻击成功率提高了16％。这些攻击方法中最好的。

对象检测器的大多数黑盒对抗攻击方案主要面临两个缺点：需要访问目标模型并生成效率低下的对抗示例（未能使对象大量消失）。为了克服这些缺点，我们提出了基于语义分割和模型反转（SSMI）的黑框对抗攻击方案。我们首先使用语义分割技术定位目标对象的位置。接下来，我们设计一个邻居背景像素更换，以用背景像素替换目标区域像素，以确保不容易通过人类视力检测到像素修饰。最后，我们重建一个可识别的示例，并使用蒙版矩阵在重建的示例中选择像素以修改良性图像以生成对抗性示例。详细的实验结果表明，SSMI可以产生有效的对抗例子，以逃避人眼的感知并使感兴趣的对象消失。更重要的是，SSMI的表现优于同样的攻击。新标签和消失的标签的最大增加为16％，对象检测的MAP指标的最大减少为36％。

从\ emph {nocedended}点云中重建3D几何形状可以使许多下游任务受益。最近的方法主要采用神经网络的神经形状表示，以代表签名的距离字段，并通过无签名的监督适应点云。但是，我们观察到，使用未签名的监督可能会导致严重的歧义，并且通常会导致\ emph {意外}故障，例如在重建复杂的结构并与重建准确的表面斗争时，在自由空间中产生不希望的表面。为了重建一个更好的距离距离场，我们提出了半签名的神经拟合（SSN拟合），该神经拟合（SSN拟合）由半签名的监督和基于损失的区域采样策略组成。我们的关键见解是，签名的监督更具信息性，显然可以轻松确定对象之外的区域。同时，提出了一种新颖的重要性抽样，以加速优化并更好地重建细节。具体而言，我们将对象空间弹并分配到\ emph {sign-newand}和\ emph {sign-unawern}区域，其中应用了不同的监督。此外，我们根据跟踪的重建损失自适应地调整每个体素的采样率，以便网络可以更多地关注复杂的拟合不足区域。我们进行了广泛的实验，以证明SSN拟合在多个数据集的不同设置下实现最新性能，包括清洁，密度变化和嘈杂的数据。

基于传感器的相机识别（SCI）方法的性能严重依赖于估计光响应非均匀性（PRNU）的去噪滤波器。鉴于各种对提高提取的PRNU质量的尝试，它仍然存在于低分辨率图像和高计算需求中的不令人满意的性能。利用PRNU估计和图像去噪的相似性，利用了基于PRNU提取的卷积神经网络（CNN）的最新成就。本文在公共“德累斯顿图像数据库”上对SCI性能进行了对比较评估。我们的研究结果是两倍。从一个方面，来自图像内容的PRNU提取和图像去噪分开噪声。因此，如果仔细培训，SCI可以从最近的CNN Denoisers受益。从另一方面，PRNU提取和图像去噪的目标和场景是不同的，因为一个优化噪声质量和另一个优化图像质量。当CNN Denoisers用于PRNU估计时，需要精心定制的培训。理论上和实际评估培训数据准备和损失功能设计的替代策略。我们指出，用图像 - PRNU对喂养CNN，并以基于相关的损耗函数训练它们导致最好的PRNU估计性能。为了便于对SCI的进一步研究，我们还提出了一种最小损失相机指纹量化方案，我们使用该量化方案将指纹保存为PNG格式的图像文件。此外，我们从“德累斯顿图像数据库”公开可用的相机的量化指纹。

In this paper we explore the task of modeling (semi) structured object sequences; in particular we focus our attention on the problem of developing a structure-aware input representation for such sequences. In such sequences, we assume that each structured object is represented by a set of key-value pairs which encode the attributes of the structured object. Given a universe of keys, a sequence of structured objects can then be viewed as an evolution of the values for each key, over time. We encode and construct a sequential representation using the values for a particular key (Temporal Value Modeling - TVM) and then self-attend over the set of key-conditioned value sequences to a create a representation of the structured object sequence (Key Aggregation - KA). We pre-train and fine-tune the two components independently and present an innovative training schedule that interleaves the training of both modules with shared attention heads. We find that this iterative two part-training results in better performance than a unified network with hierarchical encoding as well as over, other methods that use a {\em record-view} representation of the sequence \cite{de2021transformers4rec} or a simple {\em flattened} representation of the sequence. We conduct experiments using real-world data to demonstrate the advantage of interleaving TVM-KA on multiple tasks and detailed ablation studies motivating our modeling choices. We find that our approach performs better than flattening sequence objects and also allows us to operate on significantly larger sequences than existing methods.

Deploying reliable deep learning techniques in interdisciplinary applications needs learned models to output accurate and ({even more importantly}) explainable predictions. Existing approaches typically explicate network outputs in a post-hoc fashion, under an implicit assumption that faithful explanations come from accurate predictions/classifications. We have an opposite claim that explanations boost (or even determine) classification. That is, end-to-end learning of explanation factors to augment discriminative representation extraction could be a more intuitive strategy to inversely assure fine-grained explainability, e.g., in those neuroimaging and neuroscience studies with high-dimensional data containing noisy, redundant, and task-irrelevant information. In this paper, we propose such an explainable geometric deep network dubbed as NeuroExplainer, with applications to uncover altered infant cortical development patterns associated with preterm birth. Given fundamental cortical attributes as network input, our NeuroExplainer adopts a hierarchical attention-decoding framework to learn fine-grained attentions and respective discriminative representations to accurately recognize preterm infants from term-born infants at term-equivalent age. NeuroExplainer learns the hierarchical attention-decoding modules under subject-level weak supervision coupled with targeted regularizers deduced from domain knowledge regarding brain development. These prior-guided constraints implicitly maximizes the explainability metrics (i.e., fidelity, sparsity, and stability) in network training, driving the learned network to output detailed explanations and accurate classifications. Experimental results on the public dHCP benchmark suggest that NeuroExplainer led to quantitatively reliable explanation results that are qualitatively consistent with representative neuroimaging studies.

An unbiased scene graph generation (SGG) algorithm referred to as Skew Class-balanced Re-weighting (SCR) is proposed for considering the unbiased predicate prediction caused by the long-tailed distribution. The prior works focus mainly on alleviating the deteriorating performances of the minority predicate predictions, showing drastic dropping recall scores, i.e., losing the majority predicate performances. It has not yet correctly analyzed the trade-off between majority and minority predicate performances in the limited SGG datasets. In this paper, to alleviate the issue, the Skew Class-balanced Re-weighting (SCR) loss function is considered for the unbiased SGG models. Leveraged by the skewness of biased predicate predictions, the SCR estimates the target predicate weight coefficient and then re-weights more to the biased predicates for better trading-off between the majority predicates and the minority ones. Extensive experiments conducted on the standard Visual Genome dataset and Open Image V4 \& V6 show the performances and generality of the SCR with the traditional SGG models.

In the field of cross-modal retrieval, single encoder models tend to perform better than dual encoder models, but they suffer from high latency and low throughput. In this paper, we present a dual encoder model called BagFormer that utilizes a cross modal interaction mechanism to improve recall performance without sacrificing latency and throughput. BagFormer achieves this through the use of bag-wise interactions, which allow for the transformation of text to a more appropriate granularity and the incorporation of entity knowledge into the model. Our experiments demonstrate that BagFormer is able to achieve results comparable to state-of-the-art single encoder models in cross-modal retrieval tasks, while also offering efficient training and inference with 20.72 times lower latency and 25.74 times higher throughput.
