Most network data are collected from partially observable networks with both missing nodes and missing edges, for example, due to limited resources and privacy settings specified by users on social media. Thus, it stands to reason that inferring the missing parts of the networks by performing network completion should precede downstream applications. However, despite this need, the recovery of missing nodes and edges in such incomplete networks is an insufficiently explored problem due to the modeling difficulty, which is much more challenging than link prediction that only infers missing edges. In this paper, we present DeepNC, a novel method for inferring the missing parts of a network based on a deep generative model of graphs. Specifically, our method first learns a likelihood over edges via an autoregressive generative model, and then identifies the graph that maximizes the learned likelihood conditioned on the observable graph topology. Moreover, we propose a computationally efficient DeepNC algorithm that consecutively finds individual nodes that maximize the probability in each node generation step, as well as an enhanced version using the expectation-maximization algorithm. The runtime complexities of both algorithms are shown to be almost linear in the number of nodes in the network. We empirically demonstrate the superiority of DeepNC over state-of-the-art network completion approaches.Graphs with complete node attributes have been widely explored recently. While in practice, there is a graph where attributes of only partial nodes could be available and those of the others might be entirely missing. This attribute-missing graph is related to numerous real-world applications and there are limited studies investigating the corresponding learning problems. Existing graph learning methods including the popular GNN cannot provide satisfied learning performance since they are not specified for attribute-missing graphs. Thereby, designing a new GNN for these graphs is a burning issue to the graph learning community. In this paper, we make a shared-latent space assumption on graphs and develop a novel distribution matching based GNN called structure-attribute transformer (SAT) for attribute-missing graphs. SAT leverages structures and attributes in a decoupled scheme and achieves the joint distribution modeling of structures and attributes by distribution matching techniques. It could not only perform the link prediction task but also the newly introduced node attribute completion task. Tamoxifen purchase Furthermore, practical measures are introduced to quantify the performance of node attribute completion. Extensive experiments on seven real-world datasets indicate SAT shows better performance than other methods on both link prediction and node attribute completion tasks.In computer vision, object detection is one of most important tasks, which underpins a few instance-level recognition tasks and many downstream applications. Recently one-stage methods have gained much attention over two-stage approaches due to their simpler design and competitive performance. Here we propose a fully convolutional one-stage object detector (FCOS) to solve object detection in a per-pixel prediction fashion, analogue to other dense prediction problems such as semantic segmentation. Almost all state-of-the-art object detectors such as RetinaNet, SSD, YOLOv3, and Faster R-CNN rely on pre-defined anchor boxes. In contrast, our proposed detector FCOS is anchor box free, as well as proposal free. By eliminating the pre-defined set of anchor boxes, FCOS completely avoids the complicated computation related to anchor boxes such as calculating the intersection over union (IoU) scores during training. More importantly, we also avoid all hyper-parameters related to anchor boxes, which are often sensitive to the final detection performance. With the only post-processing non-maximum suppression (NMS), we demonstrate a much simpler and flexible detection framework achieving improved detection accuracy. We hope that the proposed FCOS framework can serve as a simple and strong alternative for many other instance-level tasks.

Most of the existing adversarial attack methods only create a single adversarial example for the input, which just gives a glimpse of the underlying data manifold of adversarial examples. In this paper, we present an effective method, called Hamiltonian Monte Carlo with Accumulated Momentum (HMCAM), aiming to generate a sequence of adversarial examples. To improve the efficiency of HMC, we propose a new regime to automatically control the length of trajectories, which allows the algorithm to move with adaptive step sizes along the search direction at different positions. Moreover, we revisit the reason for high computational cost of adversarial training under the view of MCMC and design a new generative method called Contrastive Adversarial Training (CAT), which approaches equilibrium distribution of adversarial examples with only few iterations by building from small modifications of the standard Contrastive Divergence (CD) and achieve a trade-off between efficiency and accuracy. The quantitative analysis and the qualitative analysis on several natural image datasets and practical systems have confirmed the superiority of the propose algorithm.Visual localization enables autonomous vehicles to navigate in their surroundings and augmented reality applications to link virtual to real worlds. Practical visual localization approaches need to be robust to a wide variety of viewing conditions, including day-night changes, as well as weather and seasonal variations, while providing highly accurate six degree-of-freedom (6DOF) camera pose estimates. In this paper, we extend three publicly available datasets containing images captured under a wide variety of viewing conditions, but lacking camera pose information, with ground truth pose information, making evaluation of the impact of various factors on 6DOF camera pose estimation accuracy possible. We also discuss the performance of state-of-the-art localization approaches on these datasets. Additionally, we release around half of the poses for all conditions, and keep the remaining half private as a test set, in the hopes that this will stimulate research on long-term visual localization, learned local image features, and related research areas.
