A significant fraction of the world’s population is living in cities. With the rapid development ofinformation and computing technologies (ICT), cities may be made smarter by embedding ICT intotheir infrastructure. By smarter, we mean that the city operation will be more efficient, cost-effective,energy-saving, be more connected, more secure, and more environmentally friendly. As such, a smartcity is typically defined as a city that has a strong integration with ICT in all its components, includingits physical components, social components, and business components [1,2].
In the paper, an intelligent actor-critic learning control method augmented by a fuzzy broad learning system with output recurrent feedback (abbreviated as ORFBLS) is proposed for obstacle-avoiding trajectory tracking...

Graph neural networks (GNNs) have gained increasing popularity, while usually suffering from unaffordable computations for real-world large-scale applications. Hence, pruning GNNs is of great need but largely unexplored. The recent work Unified GNN Sparsification (UGS) studies lottery ticket learning for GNNs, aiming to find a subset of model parameters and graph structures that can best maintain the GNN performance. However, it is tailed for the transductive setting, failing to generalize to unseen graphs, which are common in inductive tasks like graph classification. In this work, we propose a simple and effective learning paradigm, Inductive Co-Pruning of GNNs (ICPG), to endow graph lottery tickets with inductive pruning capacity. To prune the input graphs, we design a predictive model to generate importance scores for each edge based on the input. To prune the model parameters, it views the weight’s magnitude as their importance scores. Then we design an iterative co-pruning strategy to trim the graph edges and GNN weights based on their importance scores. Although it might be strikingly simple, ICPG surpasses the existing pruning method and can be universally applicable in both inductive and transductive learning settings. On 10 graph-classification and two node-classification benchmarks, ICPG achieves the same performance level with 14.26%–43.12% sparsity for graphs and 48.80%–91.41% sparsity for the GNN model.
