域适应性（DA）旨在转移标记良好的源域的知识，以促进未标记的目标学习。当转向特定的任务，例如室内（Wi-Fi）本地化时，必须学习跨域回归剂以减轻域移位。本文提出了一种新颖的方法对抗性双向反应器网络（ABRNET），以寻求更有效的跨域回归模型。具体而言，开发了差异的双向试剂架构，以最大化双向试验的差异，以发现远离源分布的不确定目标实例，然后在特征提取器和双回归器之间采用了对抗性训练机制，以产生域内不变的表示。为了进一步弥合大域间隙，设计了一个特定域的增强模块，旨在合成两个源相似和类似的类似中间域，以逐渐消除原始域的不匹配。对两个跨域回归基准的实证研究说明了我们方法解决域自适应回归（DAR）问题的力量。

域的适应性旨在使标记的源域和未标记的目标域对齐，并且大多数现有方法都认为源数据是可访问的。不幸的是，这种范式引起了数据隐私和安全性的关注。最近的研究试图通过无源设置来消除这些问题，该设置将源训练的模型适应目标域而不暴露源数据。但是，由于对源模型的对抗性攻击，无源范式仍然有数据泄漏的风险。因此，提出了黑框设置，其中只能利用源模型的输出。在本文中，我们同时介绍了无源的适应和黑盒适应性，提出了一种新的方法，即来自频率混合和相互学习（FMML）的“更好的目标表示”。具体而言，我们引入了一种新的数据增强技术作为频率混音，该技术突出了插值中与任务相关的对象，从而增强了目标模型的类符合性和线性行为。此外，我们引入了一种称为相互学习的网络正则化方法，以介绍域的适应问题。它通过自我知识蒸馏传输目标模型内部的知识，从而通过学习多尺度目标表示来减轻对源域的过度拟合。广泛的实验表明，我们的方法在两种设置下都可以在几个基准数据集上实现最新性能。

我们介绍了缩写为Argen的任意矩形范围广义弹性净罚分法，用于在高维稀疏线性模型中执行约束变量选择和正则化。作为非负弹性净惩罚方法的自然延伸，证明了在某些条件下具有可变选择一致性和估计一致性。研究了Argen估计器分布的渐近行为。我们还提出了一种称为MU-QP-RR-W-$ L_1 $的算法，以有效解决ARGEN。通过进行仿真研究，我们表明Argen在许多设置中优于弹性网。最后，执行S＆P 500 500指数跟踪对库存分配的限制的应用，以提供适应argen解决现实问题的一般指导。

对行人行为的预测对于完全自主车辆安全有效地在繁忙的城市街道上驾驶至关重要。未来的自治车需要适应混合条件，不仅具有技术还是社会能力。随着更多算法和数据集已经开发出预测行人行为，这些努力缺乏基准标签和估计行人的时间动态意图变化的能力，提供了对交互场景的解释，以及具有社会智能的支持算法。本文提出并分享另一个代表数据集，称为Iupui-CSRC行人位于意图（PSI）数据，除了综合计算机视觉标签之外，具有两种创新标签。第一部小说标签是在自助式车辆前面交叉的行人的动态意图变化，从24个司机中实现了不同的背景。第二个是在估计行人意图并在交互期间预测其行为时对驾驶员推理过程的基于文本的解释。这些创新标签可以启用几个计算机视觉任务，包括行人意图/行为预测，车辆行人互动分割和用于可解释算法的视频到语言映射。发布的数据集可以从根本上从根本上改善行人行为预测模型的发展，并开发社会智能自治车，以有效地与行人进行互动。 DataSet已被不同的任务进行评估，并已释放到公众访问。

联合学习（FL）是一个有希望的策略，用于使用客户端（即边缘设备）的网络进行隐私保留，分布式学习。然而，客户之间的数据分布通常是非IID的，使得有效优化困难。为了缓解这个问题，许多流行算法专注于通过引入各种近似术语，一些产生可观的计算和/或内存开销来减轻客户端跨客户端的影响，以限制关于全局模型的本地更新。相反，我们考虑重新思考的解决方案，以重点关注局部学习一般性而不是近端限制。为此，我们首先提出了一项系统的研究，通过二阶指标通知，更好地了解FL中的算法效果。有趣的是，我们发现标准的正则化方法令人惊讶的是减轻数据异质性效应的强烈表现者。根据我们的调查结果，我们进一步提出了一种简单有效的方法，努力克服数据异质性和先前方法的陷阱。 FedAlign在各种设置中使用最先进的FL方法实现了竞争准确性，同时最大限度地减少计算和内存开销。代码将公开。

Different people speak with diverse personalized speaking styles. Although existing one-shot talking head methods have made significant progress in lip sync, natural facial expressions, and stable head motions, they still cannot generate diverse speaking styles in the final talking head videos. To tackle this problem, we propose a one-shot style-controllable talking face generation framework. In a nutshell, we aim to attain a speaking style from an arbitrary reference speaking video and then drive the one-shot portrait to speak with the reference speaking style and another piece of audio. Specifically, we first develop a style encoder to extract dynamic facial motion patterns of a style reference video and then encode them into a style code. Afterward, we introduce a style-controllable decoder to synthesize stylized facial animations from the speech content and style code. In order to integrate the reference speaking style into generated videos, we design a style-aware adaptive transformer, which enables the encoded style code to adjust the weights of the feed-forward layers accordingly. Thanks to the style-aware adaptation mechanism, the reference speaking style can be better embedded into synthesized videos during decoding. Extensive experiments demonstrate that our method is capable of generating talking head videos with diverse speaking styles from only one portrait image and an audio clip while achieving authentic visual effects.

Unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) swarms are considered as a promising technique for next-generation communication networks due to their flexibility, mobility, low cost, and the ability to collaboratively and autonomously provide services. Distributed learning (DL) enables UAV swarms to intelligently provide communication services, multi-directional remote surveillance, and target tracking. In this survey, we first introduce several popular DL algorithms such as federated learning (FL), multi-agent Reinforcement Learning (MARL), distributed inference, and split learning, and present a comprehensive overview of their applications for UAV swarms, such as trajectory design, power control, wireless resource allocation, user assignment, perception, and satellite communications. Then, we present several state-of-the-art applications of UAV swarms in wireless communication systems, such us reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS), virtual reality (VR), semantic communications, and discuss the problems and challenges that DL-enabled UAV swarms can solve in these applications. Finally, we describe open problems of using DL in UAV swarms and future research directions of DL enabled UAV swarms. In summary, this survey provides a comprehensive survey of various DL applications for UAV swarms in extensive scenarios.

In this work, we focus on instance-level open vocabulary segmentation, intending to expand a segmenter for instance-wise novel categories without mask annotations. We investigate a simple yet effective framework with the help of image captions, focusing on exploiting thousands of object nouns in captions to discover instances of novel classes. Rather than adopting pretrained caption models or using massive caption datasets with complex pipelines, we propose an end-to-end solution from two aspects: caption grounding and caption generation. In particular, we devise a joint Caption Grounding and Generation (CGG) framework based on a Mask Transformer baseline. The framework has a novel grounding loss that performs explicit and implicit multi-modal feature alignments. We further design a lightweight caption generation head to allow for additional caption supervision. We find that grounding and generation complement each other, significantly enhancing the segmentation performance for novel categories. We conduct extensive experiments on the COCO dataset with two settings: Open Vocabulary Instance Segmentation (OVIS) and Open Set Panoptic Segmentation (OSPS). The results demonstrate the superiority of our CGG framework over previous OVIS methods, achieving a large improvement of 6.8% mAP on novel classes without extra caption data. Our method also achieves over 15% PQ improvements for novel classes on the OSPS benchmark under various settings.

Non-line-of-sight (NLOS) imaging aims to reconstruct the three-dimensional hidden scenes from the data measured in the line-of-sight, which uses photon time-of-flight information encoded in light after multiple diffuse reflections. The under-sampled scanning data can facilitate fast imaging. However, the resulting reconstruction problem becomes a serious ill-posed inverse problem, the solution of which is of high possibility to be degraded due to noises and distortions. In this paper, we propose two novel NLOS reconstruction models based on curvature regularization, i.e., the object-domain curvature regularization model and the dual (i.e., signal and object)-domain curvature regularization model. Fast numerical optimization algorithms are developed relying on the alternating direction method of multipliers (ADMM) with the backtracking stepsize rule, which are further accelerated by GPU implementation. We evaluate the proposed algorithms on both synthetic and real datasets, which achieve state-of-the-art performance, especially in the compressed sensing setting.

Stance detection refers to the task of extracting the standpoint (Favor, Against or Neither) towards a target in given texts. Such research gains increasing attention with the proliferation of social media contents. The conventional framework of handling stance detection is converting it into text classification tasks. Deep learning models have already replaced rule-based models and traditional machine learning models in solving such problems. Current deep neural networks are facing two main challenges which are insufficient labeled data and information in social media posts and the unexplainable nature of deep learning models. A new pre-trained language model chatGPT was launched on Nov 30, 2022. For the stance detection tasks, our experiments show that ChatGPT can achieve SOTA or similar performance for commonly used datasets including SemEval-2016 and P-Stance. At the same time, ChatGPT can provide explanation for its own prediction, which is beyond the capability of any existing model. The explanations for the cases it cannot provide classification results are especially useful. ChatGPT has the potential to be the best AI model for stance detection tasks in NLP, or at least change the research paradigm of this field. ChatGPT also opens up the possibility of building explanatory AI for stance detection.
