Matrix minimization techniques that employ the nuclear norm have gained recognition for their applicability in tasks like image inpainting, clustering, classification, and reconstruction. However, they come with inherent biases and computational burdens, especially when used to relax the rank function, making them less effective and efficient in real-world scenarios. To address these challenges, our research focuses on generalized nonconvex rank regularization problems in robust matrix completion, low-rank representation, and robust matrix regression. We introduce innovative approaches for effective and efficient low-rank matrix learning, grounded in generalized nonconvex rank relaxations inspired by various substitutes for the ?0-norm relaxed functions. These relaxations allow us to more accurately capture low-rank structures. Our optimization strategy employs a nonconvex and multi-variable alternating direction method of multipliers, backed by rigorous theoretical analysis for complexity and *** algorithm iteratively updates blocks of variables, ensuring efficient convergence. Additionally, we incorporate the randomized singular value decomposition technique and/or other acceleration strategies to enhance the computational efficiency of our approach, particularly for large-scale constrained minimization problems. In conclusion, our experimental results across a variety of image vision-related application tasks unequivocally demonstrate the superiority of our proposed methodologies in terms of both efficacy and efficiency when compared to most other related learning methods.
We develop a method to generate prediction sets with a guaranteed coverage rate that is robust to corruptions in the training data, such as missing or noisy variables. Our approach builds on conformal prediction, a po...

Backdoor attacks pose great threats to deep neural network models. All existing backdoor attacks are designed for unstructured data(image, voice, and text), but not structured tabular data, which has wide real-world applications, e.g., recommendation systems, fraud detection, and click-through rate prediction. To bridge this research gap, we make the first attempt to design a backdoor attack framework, named BAD-FM, for tabular data prediction models. Unlike images or voice samples composed of homogeneous pixels or signals with continuous values, tabular data samples contain well-defined heterogeneous fields that are usually sparse and discrete. Tabular data prediction models do not solely rely on deep networks but combine shallow components(e.g., factorization machine, FM) with deep components to capture sophisticated feature interactions among fields. To tailor the backdoor attack framework to tabular data models, we carefully design field selection and trigger formation algorithms to intensify the influence of the trigger on the backdoored model. We evaluate BAD-FM with extensive experiments on four datasets, i.e.,HUAWEI, Criteo, Avazu, and KDD. The results show that BAD-FM can achieve an attack success rate as high as 100%at a poisoning ratio of 0.001%, outperforming baselines adapted from existing backdoor attacks against unstructured data models. As tabular data prediction models are widely adopted in finance and commerce, our work may raise alarms on the potential risks of these models and spur future research on defenses.

Co-saliency detection within a single image is a common vision problem that has not yet been well addressed. Existing methods often used a bottom-up strategy to infer co-saliency in an image in which salient regions are firstly detected using visual primitives such as color and shape and then grouped and merged into a co-saliency map. However, co-saliency is intrinsically perceived complexly with bottom-up and top-down strategies combined in human vision. To address this problem, this study proposes a novel end-toend trainable network comprising a backbone net and two branch nets. The backbone net uses ground-truth masks as top-down guidance for saliency prediction, whereas the two branch nets construct triplet proposals for regional feature mapping and clustering, which drives the network to be bottom-up sensitive to co-salient regions. We construct a new dataset of 2019 natural images with co-saliency in each image to evaluate the proposed method. Experimental results show that the proposed method achieves state-of-the-art accuracy with a running speed of 28 fps.
