Traditionally, these models are trained in an autoregressive fashion using data collected at discrete time points in the evolution of the PDE. This setup gives rise to two problems: (i) poor temporal generalization due to error accumulation and (ii) poor zero-shot super-resolution capabilities. To address these issues, we propose Vectorized Conditional Neural Fields (VCNeF), a general framework that utilizes transformers and implicit neural representations to efficiently solve time-dependent PDEs of varying coefficients. A comprehensive evaluation of VCNeF on the challenging 1D and 2D PDEs from PDEBench demonstrates the superiority of our model over four state-of-the-art baselines. Furthermore, our proposed model achieves faster inference and generalizes better to unseen PDE parameters than the compared models.}, author = {Hagnberger, Jan and Kalimuthu, Marimuthu and Musekamp, Daniel and Niepert, Mathias}, booktitle = {Proceedings of the AI4DifferentialEquations in Science workshop at ICLR 2024, May 7-11, 2024, Austria}, month = {05}, publisher = {ICLR}, title = {Vectorized Conditional Neural Fields: A Framework for Solving Time-dependent PDEs}, year = 2024 }

  @inproceedings{tran2024energy, abstract = {Model compression has been an active research field that has been used to reduce the size and complexity of the model. In a recent noteworthy study, ToMe and its variants utilize the Bipartite Soft Matching (BSM) algorithm in which tokens representing patches in an image are split into two sets, and top-k similar tokens from one set are merged. This approach utilizes pre-trained weights, enhances speed, and reduces memory usage. However, these algorithms have some drawbacks. First, the choice of a token-splitting strategy significantly influences algorithm performance since tokens in one set can only perceive tokens in the other set, leading to mis-merging issues. Furthermore, although ToMe is effective in the initial layers, it becomes increasingly problematic in deeper layers as the number of tokens diminishes because of damaged informative tokens. To address these limitations, rather than relying on specific splitting strategies like BSM, we propose a new algorithm called PiToMe. Specifically, we prioritize the protection of informative tokens using an additional factor called energy score. In experiments, PiToMe achieved up to a 50% memory reduction while exhibiting superior off-the-shelf performance on image classification ( keeping a 1.71% average performance drop compared to 2.6% for ToMe) and image-text retrieval (1.35% average performance drop compared to 6.89% for ToMe) compared to previous BSM-based approaches dependent solely on token similarity.}, author = {Tran, Hoai-Chau and Nguyen, Duy Minh Ho and Nguyen, Manh-Duy and Le, Ngan Hoang and T.

  @inproceedings{SCHWINDT2024109185, abstract = {Field surveys to collect data from fluvial ecosystems traditionally focus on specific phenomena related to geomorphology or hydrology. Low-cost unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) additionally empower the fast and massive collection of airborne photogrammetry, providing geospatially explicit information. This remote sensing data complements field surveys by offering contextual information on geomorphological conditions, including digital terrain models. AI-based image recognition can augment contextual information to extrapolate archetypal object classes through name labels, such as “gravel”, “sand”, “plant”, or “large wood”. However, obtaining sufficient ground truth data for these classifications, particularly in morphodynamic fluvial environments, is challenging and induces high costs. This study introduces a transfer learning approach to address the challenge of low data availability, enabling AI-based mapping of complex objects in fluvial landscapes. We leverage the learned general structure of a deep convolutional neural network (CNN) pre-trained on a broad range of images. The fixed latent features of the pre-trained CNN stem from GoogLeNet. A fixed feature extractor serves to classify objects with limited data amounts. Satisfactory performance is measured with a recall rate, expressing the ability of a model to find all occurrences of a class on an image. High spatial heterogeneity in the locations of measurements on the x-y plane improves model performance. With a minimum of 400 labeled instances, the model achieves a satisfactory 93.75-% recall for a “large wood” target class, providing evidence of the effectiveness of transfer learning in remote sensing for geomorphological studies. This ability to detect large woods in river environments is critical to restoration efforts as it helps create fish habitat, which is essential to supporting biodiversity.}, author = {Schwindt, Sebastian and Meisinger, Lisa and Negreiros, Beatriz and Schneider, Tim and Nowak, Wolfgang}, doi = {https://doi.org/10.1016/j.geomorph.2024.109185}, issn = {0169-555X}, journal = {Geomorphology}, language = {en}, pages = 109185, title = {Transfer learning achieves high recall for object classification in fluvial environments with limited data}, url = {https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0169555X24001351}, volume = 455, year = 2024 }

However, controlling the sampling process for constrained image generation tasks such as inpainting remains challenging since exact conditioning on such constraints is intractable. While existing methods use various techniques to approximate the constrained posterior, this paper proposes to exploit the ability of Tractable Probabilistic Models (TPMs) to exactly and efficiently compute the constrained posterior, and to leverage this signal to steer the denoising process of diffusion models. Specifically, this paper adopts a class of expressive TPMs termed Probabilistic Circuits (PCs). Building upon prior advances, we further scale up PCs and make them capable of guiding the image generation process of diffusion models. Empirical results suggest that our approach can consistently improve the overall quality and semantic coherence of in painted images across three natural image datasets (i.e., CelebA-HQ, ImageNet, and LSUN) with only ~10% additional computational overhead brought by the TPM.}, archiveprefix = {arXiv}, author = {Liu, Anji and Niepert, Mathias and den Broeck, Guy Van}, booktitle = {Proceedings of the International Conference on Learning Representations(ICLR 2024), May 7--11, 2024, Austria}, doi = {10.48550/arXiv.2401.03349}, eprint = {2401.03349}, language = {en}, month = {05}, preprinturl = {https://arxiv.org/abs/2401.03349v1}, primaryclass = {cs.CV}, publisher = {ICLR}, title = {Image Inpainting via Tractable Steering of Diffusion Models}, venue = {Austria}, year = 2023 }

Constraints that arise during design, fabrication, or construction are mainly considered in the later stages of the design process. This often leads to costly revisions during fabrication or construction. While there are some works proposing Semantic Web approaches or ad-hoc methods to identify constraint violations in the early stages of design, they mainly rely on data derived from monolithic data schemas. This paper presents a Semantic Web approach that validates and checks building data derived from federated data schemas. The proposed approach is exemplified through the design process of a segmented timber shell, a complex structure requiring negotiations across architectural, engineering, and fabrication parameters. The Building Habitat object Models (BHoM) framework is used to represent federated building data, and the approach enables a seamless movement between the graph environment and object models to support the design process. Additionally, the study discusses various technologies that aid in knowledge inference or data validation. The results of this study suggest that the use of Semantic Web technologies in conjunction with federated data schemas has significant potential to enhance co-design processes in the building industry. While further research is needed to assess its effectiveness in other scenarios, our application of this approach in checking and validating building data for a complex segmented timber shell structure demonstrates its promise as a means to streamline the design process.}, address = {Cham}, author = {Elshani, Diellza and Hernandez, Daniel and Lombardi, Alessio and Siriwardena, Lasath and Schwinn, Tobias and Fisher, Al and Staab, Steffen and Menges, Achim and Wortmann, Thomas}, booktitle = {Computer-Aided Architectural Design.

While there are some works proposing Semantic Web approaches or ad-hoc methods to identify constraint violations in the early stages of design, they mainly rely on data derived from monolithic data schemas. This paper presents a Semantic Web approach that validates and checks building data derived from federated data schemas. The proposed approach is exemplified through the design process of a segmented timber shell, a complex structure requiring negotiations across architectural, engineering, and fabrication parameters. The Building Habitat object Models (BHoM) framework is used to represent federated building data, and the approach enables a seamless movement between the graph environment and object models to support the design process. Additionally, the study discusses various technologies that aid in knowledge inference or data validation. The results of this study suggest that the use of Semantic Web technologies in conjunction with federated data schemas has significant potential to enhance co-design processes in the building industry. While further research is needed to assess its effectiveness in other scenarios, our application of this approach in checking and validating building data for a complex segmented timber shell structure demonstrates its promise as a means to streamline the design process.}, address = {Cham}, author = {Elshani, Diellza and Hernandez, Daniel and Lombardi, Alessio and Siriwardena, Lasath and Schwinn, Tobias and Fisher, Al and Staab, Steffen and Menges, Achim and Wortmann, Thomas}, booktitle = {Computer-Aided Architectural Design.
