Learn-to-learn on Arbitrary Textual Conditioning: A Hypernetwork-Driven Meta-Gated LLM

Conventional LLMs may suffer from corpus heterogeneity and subtle condition changes. While finetuning can create the catastrophe forgetting issue, application of meta-learning on LLMs is also limited due to its complexity and scalability. In this paper, we activate the meta-signal of $β$ within the SwiGLU blocks, resulting in a meta-gating mechanism that adaptively adjusts the nonlinearity of FFN. A hypernetwork is employed which dynamically produces $β$ on textual conditions, providing meta-controllability on LLMs. By testing on different condition types such as task, domain, persona, and style, our method outperforms finetuning and meta-learning baselines, and can generalize reasonably on unseen tasks, condition types, or instructions. Our code can be found in https://github.com/AaronJi/MeGan.

A Weakly Supervised Learning Framework for Salient Object Detection via Hybrid Labels

Fully-supervised salient object detection (SOD) methods have made great progress, but such methods often rely on a large number of pixel-level annotations, which are time-consuming and labour-intensive. In this paper, we focus on a new weakly-supervised SOD task under hybrid labels, where the supervision labels include a large number of coarse labels generated by the traditional unsupervised method and a small number of real labels. To address the issues of label noise and quantity imbalance in this task, we design a new pipeline framework with three sophisticated training strategies. In terms of model framework, we decouple the task into label refinement sub-task and salient object detection sub-task, which cooperate with each other and train alternately. Specifically, the R-Net is designed as a two-stream encoder-decoder model equipped with Blender with Guidance and Aggregation Mechanisms (BGA), aiming to rectify the coarse labels for more reliable pseudo-labels, while the S-Net is a replaceable SOD network supervised by the pseudo labels generated by the current R-Net. Note that, we only need to use the trained S-Net for testing. Moreover, in order to guarantee the effectiveness and efficiency of network training, we design three training strategies, including alternate iteration mechanism, group-wise incremental mechanism, and credibility verification mechanism. Experiments on five SOD benchmarks show that our method achieves competitive performance against weakly-supervised/unsupervised methods both qualitatively and quantitatively.

Loop closure detection using local 3D deep descriptors

We present a simple yet effective method to address loop closure detection in simultaneous localisation and mapping using local 3D deep descriptors (L3Ds). L3Ds are emerging compact representations of patches extracted from point clouds that are learnt from data using a deep learning algorithm. We propose a novel overlap measure for loop detection by computing the metric error between points that correspond to mutually-nearest-neighbour descriptors after registering the loop candidate point cloud by its estimated relative pose. This novel approach enables us to accurately detect loops and estimate six degrees-of-freedom poses in the case of small overlaps. We compare our L3D-based loop closure approach with recent approaches on LiDAR data and achieve state-of-the-art loop closure detection accuracy. Additionally, we embed our loop closure approach in RESLAM, a recent edge-based SLAM system, and perform the evaluation on real-world RGBD-TUM and synthetic ICL datasets. Our approach enables RESLAM to achieve a better localisation accuracy compared to its original loop closure strategy. Our project page is available at github.com/yiming107/l3d_loop_closure.

Preventing Timing Side-Channels via Security-Aware Just-In-Time Compilation

Recent work has shown that Just-In-Time (JIT) compilation can introduce timing side-channels to constant-time programs, which would otherwise be a principled and effective means to counter timing attacks. In this paper, we propose a novel approach to eliminate JIT-induced leaks from these programs. Specifically, we present an operational semantics and a formal definition of constant-time programs under JIT compilation, laying the foundation for reasoning about programs with JIT compilation. We then propose to eliminate JIT-induced leaks via a fine-grained JIT compilation for which we provide an automated approach to generate policies and a novel type system to show its soundness. We develop a tool DeJITLeak for Java based on our approach and implement the fine-grained JIT compilation in HotSpot. Experimental results show that DeJITLeak can effectively and efficiently eliminate JIT-induced leaks on three datasets used in side-channel detection

Quantum sensing of rotation velocity based on Bose-Hubbard model

This work theoretically study the Bose-Hubbard model in a ring geometry in a rotating frame. We obtain an effective Hamiltonian by using unitary transformation, where the effect of the rotating reference frame is introducing additional phases to the hopping constant. Within the mean-field theory, the phase transition edge of the Bose-Hubbard model not only depends on the particle numbers and the ring radius, but also depends on the rotation velocity. Therefore, we propose a sensing method of the rotation velocity using the phase transition edge of the Bose-Hubbard model. At the exact phase transition edge where this sensing method is most sensitive, the resolution depends on the rotation velocity, the particle numbers and the ring radius, while is independent of the parameters in the Bose-Hubbard model such as the hopping constant and the on-site interaction.
