Federated learning (FL) enables collaborative training across distributed edge devices, but deploying lightweight models in dynamic edge environments remains challenging. Existing methods typically require retraining whenever device resource constraints change, resulting in excessive computational o…
The quest for incremental unified multimodal anomaly detection seeks to empower a single model with the ability to systematically detect anomalies across all categories and support incremental learning to accommodate emerging objects/categories. Central to this pursuit is resolving the catastrophic
Performance collapse is an intractable issue of Differentiable Architecture Search (DAS), where severe performance degradation of DAS happens when it trains on different search spaces or datasets. We theoretically analyze the issue from the information bottleneck (IB) perspective, and disclose that
Training-free Neural Architecture Search (NAS) has emerged an efficient way to discover high-performing lightweight models with zero-cost proxies (e.g., the activation-based proxies (AZP)). In this paper, we observe a new negative correlation phenomenon that the correlations of the AZP dramatically…
Network quantization effectively reduces both memory footprints and inference time of deep neural networks, enabling their deployment on resource-constrained devices. To fully utilize the multiple bit-width arithmetic operations of the hardware, mixed-precision quantization (MPQ) is developed to ass…
One-shot methods have significantly advanced the field of neural architecture search (NAS) by adopting weight-sharing strategy to reduce search costs. However, the accuracy of performance estimation can be compromised by co-adaptation. Few-shot methods divide the entire supernet into individual sub-…
Mixed Precision Quantization (MPQ) has become an essential technique for optimizing neural network by determining the optimal bitwidth per layer. Existing MPQ methods, however, face a major hurdle: they require a computationally expensive search for quantization strategies on large-scale datasets. T…
Existing efforts to boost multimodal fusion of 3D anomaly detection (3D-AD) primarily concentrate on devising more effective multimodal fusion strategies. However, little attention was devoted to analyzing the role of multimodal fusion architecture (topology) design in contributing to 3D-AD. In this…
In neural architecture search (NAS), the relativistic predictor has recently emerged as an attractive technique to solve ranking issue for performance evaluation by predicting the relativistic ranking of architecture pair rather than the absolute performance of an architecture. However, it suffers f
Mixed precision quantization (MPQ) is an effective quantization approach to achieve accuracy-complexity trade-off of neural network, through assigning different bit-widths to network activations and weights in each layer. The typical way of existing MPQ methods is to optimize quantization policies (
Weight quantization is an effective technique to compress deep neural networks for their deployment on edge devices with limited resources. Traditional loss-aware quantization methods commonly use the quantized gradient to replace the full-precision gradient. However, we discover that the gradient e…
Regular expressions (REs) offer one-shot solutions for many networking tasks, e.g., network intrusion detection. However, REs purely rely on expert knowledge and cannot utilize labeled data for better accuracy. Today, neural networks (NNs) have shown superior accuracy and flexibility, thanks to thei…
