Sustainability, A Priority, Havovi Joshi Oct 2022

Sustainability, A Priority, Havovi Joshi

Asian Management Insights

The word ‘sustainability’ is thrown around liberally these days. But what does it really mean? At its core, sustainability is a business approach to creating long-term value by considering how an organisation operates not only in the economic but also social and ecological environments. Today, consumers across all generations, from baby boomers to Gen Z, are demanding more sustainable purchasing options and environment, social, and governance (ESG) initiatives from the retailers they patronise, putting pressure on businesses to up their sustainability game if they want to stay competitive.

Investigating Accessibility Challenges And Opportunities For Users With Low Vision Disabilities In Customer-To-Customer (C2c) Marketplaces, Bektur Ryskeldiev, Kotaro Hara, Mariko Kobayashi, Koki Kusano Oct 2022

Investigating Accessibility Challenges And Opportunities For Users With Low Vision Disabilities In Customer-To-Customer (C2c) Marketplaces, Bektur Ryskeldiev, Kotaro Hara, Mariko Kobayashi, Koki Kusano

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

Inaccessible e-commerce websites and mobile applications exclude people with visual impairments (PVI) from online shopping. Customer-to-customer (C2C) marketplaces, a form of e-commerce where trading happens not between businesses and customers but between customers, could pose a unique set of challenges in the interactions that the platform brings about. Through online questionnaire and remote interviews, we investigate problems experienced by people with low vision disabilities in common C2C scenarios. Our study with low vision participants (N = 12) reveal both previously known general accessibility issues (e.g., web and mobile interface accessibility) and C2C specific accessibility issues (e.g., inability to confirm item …

Cvfnet: Real-Time 3d Object Detection By Learning Cross View Features, Jiaqi Gu, Zhiyu Xiang, Pan Zhao, Tingming Bai, Lingxuan Wang, Xijun Zhao, Zhiyuan Zhang Oct 2022

Cvfnet: Real-Time 3d Object Detection By Learning Cross View Features, Jiaqi Gu, Zhiyu Xiang, Pan Zhao, Tingming Bai, Lingxuan Wang, Xijun Zhao, Zhiyuan Zhang

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

In recent years 3D object detection from LiDAR point clouds has made great progress thanks to the development of deep learning technologies. Although voxel or point based methods are popular in 3D object detection, they usually involve time-consuming operations such as 3D convolutions on voxels or ball query among points, making the resulting network inappropriate for time critical applications. On the other hand, 2D view-based methods feature high computing efficiency while usually obtaining inferior performance than the voxel or point based methods. In this work, we present a real-time view-based single stage 3D object detector, namely CVFNet to fulfill this …

Dynamic Temporal Filtering In Video Models, Fuchen Long, Zhaofan Qiu, Yingwei Pan, Ting Yao, Chong-Wah Ngo, Tao Mei Oct 2022

Dynamic Temporal Filtering In Video Models, Fuchen Long, Zhaofan Qiu, Yingwei Pan, Ting Yao, Chong-Wah Ngo, Tao Mei

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

Video temporal dynamics is conventionally modeled with 3D spatial-temporal kernel or its factorized version comprised of 2D spatial kernel and 1D temporal kernel. The modeling power, nevertheless, is limited by the fixed window size and static weights of a kernel along the temporal dimension. The pre-determined kernel size severely limits the temporal receptive fields and the fixed weights treat each spatial location across frames equally, resulting in sub-optimal solution for longrange temporal modeling in natural scenes. In this paper, we present a new recipe of temporal feature learning, namely Dynamic Temporal Filter (DTF), that novelly performs spatial-aware temporal modeling in …

Wave-Vit: Unifying Wavelet And Transformers For Visual Representation Learning, Ting Yao, Yingwei Pan, Yehao Li, Chong-Wah Ngo, Tao Mei Oct 2022

Wave-Vit: Unifying Wavelet And Transformers For Visual Representation Learning, Ting Yao, Yingwei Pan, Yehao Li, Chong-Wah Ngo, Tao Mei

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

Multi-scale Vision Transformer (ViT) has emerged as a powerful backbone for computer vision tasks, while the self-attention computation in Transformer scales quadratically w.r.t. the input patch number. Thus, existing solutions commonly employ down-sampling operations (e.g., average pooling) over keys/values to dramatically reduce the computational cost. In this work, we argue that such over-aggressive down-sampling design is not invertible and inevitably causes information dropping especially for high-frequency components in objects (e.g., texture details). Motivated by the wavelet theory, we construct a new Wavelet Vision Transformer (Wave-ViT) that formulates the invertible down-sampling with wavelet transforms and self-attention learning in a unified way. …

Long-Term Leap Attention, Short-Term Periodic Shift For Video Classification, Hao Zhang, Lechao Cheng, Yanbin Hao, Chong-Wah Ngo Oct 2022

Long-Term Leap Attention, Short-Term Periodic Shift For Video Classification, Hao Zhang, Lechao Cheng, Yanbin Hao, Chong-Wah Ngo

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

Video transformer naturally incurs a heavier computation burden than a static vision transformer, as the former processes �� times longer sequence than the latter under the current attention of quadratic complexity (�� 2�� 2 ). The existing works treat the temporal axis as a simple extension of spatial axes, focusing on shortening the spatio-temporal sequence by either generic pooling or local windowing without utilizing temporal redundancy. However, videos naturally contain redundant information between neighboring frames; thereby, we could potentially suppress attention on visually similar frames in a dilated manner. Based on this hypothesis, we propose the LAPS, a long-term “Leap …

Interactive Video Corpus Moment Retrieval Using Reinforcement Learning, Zhixin Ma, Chong-Wah Ngo Oct 2022

Interactive Video Corpus Moment Retrieval Using Reinforcement Learning, Zhixin Ma, Chong-Wah Ngo

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

Known-item video search is effective with human-in-the-loop to interactively investigate the search result and refine the initial query. Nevertheless, when the first few pages of results are swamped with visually similar items, or the search target is hidden deep in the ranked list, finding the know-item target usually requires a long duration of browsing and result inspection. This paper tackles the problem by reinforcement learning, aiming to reach a search target within a few rounds of interaction by long-term learning from user feedbacks. Specifically, the system interactively plans for navigation path based on feedback and recommends a potential target that …

Mando: Multi-Level Heterogeneous Graph Embeddings For Fine-Grained Detection Of Smart Contract Vulnerabilities, Huu Hoang Nguyen, Nhat Minh Nguyen, Chunyao Xie, Zahra Ahmadi, Daniel Kudenko, Thanh Nam Doan, Lingxiao Jiang

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

Learning heterogeneous graphs consisting of different types of nodes and edges enhances the results of homogeneous graph techniques. An interesting example of such graphs is control-flow graphs representing possible software code execution flows. As such graphs represent more semantic information of code, developing techniques and tools for such graphs can be highly beneficial for detecting vulnerabilities in software for its reliability. However, existing heterogeneous graph techniques are still insufficient in handling complex graphs where the number of different types of nodes and edges is large and variable. This paper concentrates on the Ethereum smart contracts as a sample of software …

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

Quality assurance is of great importance for deep learning (DL) systems, especially when they are applied in safety-critical applications. While quality issues of native DL applications have been extensively analyzed, the issues of JavaScript-based DL applications have never been systematically studied. Compared with native DL applications, JavaScript-based DL applications can run on major browsers, making the platform- and device-independent. Specifically, the quality of JavaScript-based DL applications depends on the 3 parts: the application, the third-party DL library used and the underlying DL framework (e.g., TensorFlow.js), called JavaScript-based DL system. In this paper, we conduct the first empirical study on the …

Compressing Pre-Trained Models Of Code Into 3 Mb, Jieke Shi, Zhou Yang, Bowen Xu, Hong Jin Kang, David Lo Oct 2022

Compressing Pre-Trained Models Of Code Into 3 Mb, Jieke Shi, Zhou Yang, Bowen Xu, Hong Jin Kang, David Lo

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

Although large pre-trained models of code have delivered significant advancements in various code processing tasks, there is an impediment to the wide and fluent adoption of these powerful models in software developers’ daily workflow: these large models consume hundreds of megabytes of memory and run slowly on personal devices, which causes problems in model deployment and greatly degrades the user experience. It motivates us to propose Compressor, a novel approach that can compress the pre-trained models of code into extremely small models with negligible performance sacrifice. Our proposed method formulates the design of tiny models as simplifying the pre-trained model …

Improving Knowledge-Aware Recommendation With Multi-Level Interactive Contrastive Learning, Ding Zou, Wei Wei, Ziyang Wang, Xian-Ling Mao, Feida Zhu, Rui Fang, Dangyang Chen

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

Incorporating Knowledge Graphs (KG) into recommeder system as side information has attracted considerable attention. Recently, the technical trend of Knowledge-aware Recommendation (KGR) is to develop end-to-end models based on graph neural networks (GNNs). However, the extremely sparse user-item interactions significantly degrade the performance of the GNN-based models, from the following aspects: 1) the sparse interaction, itself, means inadequate supervision signals and limits the supervised GNN-based models; 2) the combination of sparse interactions (CF part) and redundant KG facts (KG part) further results in an unbalanced information utilization. Besides, the GNN paradigm aggregates local neighbors for node representation learning, while ignoring …

Pixel-Wise Energy-Biased Abstention Learning For Anomaly Segmentation On Complex Urban Driving Scenes, Yu Tian, Yuyuan Liu, Guansong Pang, Fengbei Liu, Yuanhong Chen, Gustavo Carneiro Oct 2022

Pixel-Wise Energy-Biased Abstention Learning For Anomaly Segmentation On Complex Urban Driving Scenes, Yu Tian, Yuyuan Liu, Guansong Pang, Fengbei Liu, Yuanhong Chen, Gustavo Carneiro

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

State-of-the-art (SOTA) anomaly segmentation approaches on complex urban driving scenes explore pixel-wise classification uncertainty learned from outlier exposure, or external reconstruction models. However, previous uncertainty approaches that directly associate high uncertainty to anomaly may sometimes lead to incorrect anomaly predictions, and external reconstruction models tend to be too inefficient for real-time self-driving embedded systems. In this paper, we propose a new anomaly segmentation method, named pixel-wise energy-biased abstention learning (PEBAL), that explores pixel-wise abstention learning (AL) with a model that learns an adaptive pixel-level anomaly class, and an energy-based model (EBM) that learns inlier pixel distribution. More specifically, PEBAL is …

Physical Adversarial Attack On A Robotic Arm, Yifan Jia, Christopher M. Poskitt, Jun Sun, Sudipta Chattopadhyay

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

Collaborative Robots (cobots) are regarded as highly safety-critical cyber-physical systems (CPSs) owing to their close physical interactions with humans. In settings such as smart factories, they are frequently augmented with AI. For example, in order to move materials, cobots utilize object detectors based on deep learning models. Deep learning, however, has been demonstrated as vulnerable to adversarial attacks: a minor change (noise) to benign input can fool the underlying neural networks and lead to a different result. While existing works have explored such attacks in the context of picture/object classification, less attention has been given to attacking neural networks used …

Research Collection College of Integrative Studies

In recent years, urban planners and designers are paying greater attention to Outdoor Thermal Comfort (OTC) studies due to the imminent threat of the Urban Heat Island and climate change on human health. Historically, indoor thermal comfort research assumed steady-state conditions, centralizing on the concept of thermal neutrality to determine optimal environmental parameters. Such research pivoted to investigating how non-steady-state, transient environmental conditions influence comfort. Recent studies underscore the usefulness of positive alliesthesia in providing a productive framework for OTC evaluation. In this article we first clarify the concepts related to thermal comfort-related terms, scales, and models in the literature. …

Adaptive Structural Similarity Preserving For Unsupervised Cross Modal Hashing, Liang Li, Baihua Zheng, Weiwei Sun Oct 2022

Adaptive Structural Similarity Preserving For Unsupervised Cross Modal Hashing, Liang Li, Baihua Zheng, Weiwei Sun

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

Relation Extraction (RE) is a vital step to complete Knowledge Graph (KG) by extracting entity relations from texts. However, it usually suffers from the long-tail issue. The training data mainly concentrates on a few types of relations, leading to the lack of sufficient annotations for the remaining types of relations. In this paper, we propose a general approach to learn relation prototypes from unlabeled texts, to facilitate the long-tail relation extraction by transferring knowledge from the relation types with sufficient training data. We learn relation prototypes as an implicit factor between entities, which reflects the meanings of relations as well …

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

Self-supervised entity alignment (EA) aims to link equivalent entities across different knowledge graphs (KGs) without the use of pre-aligned entity pairs. The current state-of-the-art (SOTA) selfsupervised EA approach draws inspiration from contrastive learning, originally designed in computer vision based on instance discrimination and contrastive loss, and suffers from two shortcomings. Firstly, it puts unidirectional emphasis on pushing sampled negative entities far away rather than pulling positively aligned pairs close, as is done in the well-established supervised EA. Secondly, it advocates the minimum information requirement for self-supervised EA, while we argue that self-described KG’s side information (e.g., entity name, relation name, …

Stitching Weight-Shared Deep Neural Networks For Efficient Multitask Inference On Gpu, Zeyu Wang, Xiaoxi He, Zimu Zhou, Xu Wang, Qiang Ma, Xin Miao, Zhuo Liu, Lothar Thiele, Zheng. Yang

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

Intelligent personal and home applications demand multiple deep neural networks (DNNs) running on resourceconstrained platforms for compound inference tasks, known as multitask inference. To fit multiple DNNs into low-resource devices, emerging techniques resort to weight sharing among DNNs to reduce their storage. However, such reduction in storage fails to translate into efficient execution on common accelerators such as GPUs. Most DNN graph rewriters are blind for multiDNN optimization, while GPU vendors provide inefficient APIs for parallel multi-DNN execution at runtime. A few prior graph rewriters suggest cross-model graph fusion for low-latency multiDNN execution. Yet they request duplication of the shared …

Adding Context To Source Code Representations For Deep Learning, Fuwei Tian, Christoph Treude Oct 2022

Adding Context To Source Code Representations For Deep Learning, Fuwei Tian, Christoph Treude

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

Deep learning models have been successfully applied to a variety of software engineering tasks, such as code classification, summarisation, and bug and vulnerability detection. In order to apply deep learning to these tasks, source code needs to be represented in a format that is suitable for input into the deep learning model. Most approaches to representing source code, such as tokens, abstract syntax trees (ASTs), data flow graphs (DFGs), and control flow graphs (CFGs) only focus on the code itself and do not take into account additional context that could be useful for deep learning models. In this paper, we …

Taming Multi-Output Recommenders For Software Engineering, Christoph Treude

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

Recommender systems are a valuable tool for software engineers. For example, they can provide developers with a ranked list of files likely to contain a bug, or multiple auto-complete suggestions for a given method stub. However, the way these recommender systems interact with developers is often rudimentary—a long list of recommendations only ranked by the model’s confidence. In this vision paper, we lay out our research agenda for re-imagining how recommender systems for software engineering communicate their insights to developers. When issuing recommendations, our aim is to recommend diverse rather than redundant solutions and present them in ways that highlight …

Video Graph Transformer For Video Question Answering, Junbin Xiao, Pan Zhou, Tat-Seng Chua, Shuicheng Yan Oct 2022

Video Graph Transformer For Video Question Answering, Junbin Xiao, Pan Zhou, Tat-Seng Chua, Shuicheng Yan

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

This paper proposes a Video Graph Transformer (VGT) model for Video Quetion Answering (VideoQA). VGT’s uniqueness are two-fold: 1) it designs a dynamic graph transformer module which encodes video by explicitly capturing the visual objects, their relations, and dynamics for complex spatio-temporal reasoning; and 2) it exploits disentangled video and text Transformers for relevance comparison between the video and text to perform QA, instead of entangled crossmodal Transformer for answer classification. Vision-text communication is done by additional cross-modal interaction modules. With more reasonable video encoding and QA solution, we show that VGT can achieve much better performances on VideoQA tasks …

Mix-Dann And Dynamic-Modal-Distillation For Video Domain Adaptation, Yuehao Yin, Bin Zhu, Jingjing Chen, Lechao Cheng, Yu-Gang Jiang Oct 2022

Mix-Dann And Dynamic-Modal-Distillation For Video Domain Adaptation, Yuehao Yin, Bin Zhu, Jingjing Chen, Lechao Cheng, Yu-Gang Jiang

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

Video domain adaptation is non-trivial due to video is inherently involved with multi-dimensional and multi-modal information. Existing works mainly adopt adversarial learning and self-supervised tasks to align features. Nevertheless, the explicit interaction between source and target in the temporal dimension, as well as the adaptation between modalities, are unexploited. In this paper, we propose Mix-Domain-Adversarial Neural Network and Dynamic-Modal-Distillation (MD-DMD), a novel multi-modal adversarial learning framework for unsupervised video domain adaptation. Our approach incorporates the temporal information between source and target domains, as well as the diversity of adaptability between modalities. On the one hand, for every single modality, we …

On Mitigating Hard Clusters For Face Clustering, Yingjie Chen, Huasong Zhong, Chong Chen, Chen Shen, Jianqiang Huang, Tao Wang, Yun Liang, Qianru Sun Oct 2022

On Mitigating Hard Clusters For Face Clustering, Yingjie Chen, Huasong Zhong, Chong Chen, Chen Shen, Jianqiang Huang, Tao Wang, Yun Liang, Qianru Sun

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

Face clustering is a promising way to scale up face recognition systems using large-scale unlabeled face images. It remains challenging to identify small or sparse face image clusters that we call hard clusters, which is caused by the heterogeneity, i.e., high variations in size and sparsity, of the clusters. Consequently, the conventional way of using a uniform threshold (to identify clusters) often leads to a terrible misclassification for the samples that should belong to hard clusters. We tackle this problem by leveraging the neighborhood information of samples and inferring the cluster memberships (of samples) in a probabilistic way. We introduce …

Ngram-Oaxe: Phrase-Based Order-Agnostic Cross Entropy For Non-Autoregressive Machine Translation, Cunxiao Du, Zhaopeng Tu, Longyue Wang, Jing Jiang Oct 2022

Ngram-Oaxe: Phrase-Based Order-Agnostic Cross Entropy For Non-Autoregressive Machine Translation, Cunxiao Du, Zhaopeng Tu, Longyue Wang, Jing Jiang

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

Recently, a new training oaxe loss has proven effective to ameliorate the effect of multimodality for non-autoregressive translation (NAT), which removes the penalty of word order errors in the standard cross-entropy loss. Starting from the intuition that reordering generally occurs between phrases, we extend oaxe by only allowing reordering between ngram phrases and still requiring a strict match of word order within the phrases. Extensive experiments on NAT benchmarks across language pairs and data scales demonstrate the effectiveness and universality of our approach. Further analyses show that ngram noaxe indeed improves the translation of ngram phrases, and produces more fluent …

Autoprtitle: A Tool For Automatic Pull Request Title Generation, Ivana Clairine Irsan, Ting Zhang, Ferdian Thung, David Lo, Lingxiao Jiang

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

With the rise of the pull request mechanism in software development, the quality of pull requests has gained more attention. Prior works focus on improving the quality of pull request descriptions and several approaches have been proposed to automatically generate pull request descriptions. As an essential component of a pull request, pull request titles have not received a similar level of attention. To further facilitate automation in software development and to help developers draft high-quality pull request titles, we introduce AutoPRTitle. AutoPRTitle is specifically designed to generate pull request titles automatically. AutoPRTitle can generate a precise and succinct pull request …

Answer Summarization For Technical Queries: Benchmark And New Approach, Chengran Yang, Bowen Xu, Ferdian Thung, Yucen Shi, Ting Zhang, Zhou Yang, Xin Zhou, Jieke Shi, Junda He, Donggyun Han, David Lo

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

Prior studies have demonstrated that approaches to generate an answer summary for a given technical query in Software Question and Answer (SQA) sites are desired. We find that existing approaches are assessed solely through user studies. Hence, a new user study needs to be performed every time a new approach is introduced; this is time-consuming, slows down the development of the new approach, and results from different user studies may not be comparable to each other. There is a need for a benchmark with ground truth summaries as a complement assessment through user studies. Unfortunately, such a benchmark is non-existent …

Editing Out-Of-Domain Gan Inversion Via Differential Activations, Haorui Song, Yong Du, Tianyi Xiang, Junyu Dong, Jing Qin, Shengfeng He Oct 2022

Editing Out-Of-Domain Gan Inversion Via Differential Activations, Haorui Song, Yong Du, Tianyi Xiang, Junyu Dong, Jing Qin, Shengfeng He

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

Despite the demonstrated editing capacity in the latent space of a pretrained GAN model, inverting real-world images is stuck in a dilemma that the reconstruction cannot be faithful to the original input. The main reason for this is that the distributions between training and real-world data are misaligned, and because of that, it is unstable of GAN inversion for real image editing. In this paper, we propose a novel GAN prior based editing framework to tackle the out-of-domain inversion problem with a composition-decomposition paradigm. In particular, during the phase of composition, we introduce a differential activation module for detecting semantic …
