Neural architecture search (NAS) automates the design of neural networks, but faces high computational costs for evaluating the performance candidate architectures. Surrogate-assisted NAS methods use approximate computational models to get predictive estimation instead of real complete training, but also face the challenge of maintaining the balance between training cost and predictive effectiveness. In this paper, we propose a progressive neural predictor that uses score-based sampling (PNSS) to improve the performance of the surrogate model with limited training data. Different from existing algorithms that rely on initial sample selection, PNSS uses an online method to progressively select new samples of the surrogate model based on potential information from the previous search process. During the iterative process, the sampled scores are dynamically adjusted based on the prediction rankings in each round to keep track of good architectures, which gradually optimises the surrogate model. In this way, the processes of training the predictor and searching for architectures are jointly combined to improve the efficiency of sample utilization. In addition, the surrogate model with different degrees of training is assigned prediction confidence equal to the accuracy of the current stage. Experiments are conducted on NAS-Bench-101 and NAS-Bench-201 benchmarks. The experimental results show that the proposed PNSS algorithm outperforms the existing methods with limited training samples. In addition, visualisation of the search process and ablation study also shows the effectiveness of the progressive search.

The number and diversity of researchers in the U.S. must increase significantly to support the demand for global leadership in research and computing. For more equitable representation in computing, there must be equitable access to graduate degrees and careers both academic and industrial in computing. However, there are barriers to the recruitment, retention, and persistence of racial/ethnic minoritized individuals in computerscience due to racial inequities. With respect to Black students, these barriers are unique to their intersectional identities. HBCUs offer students a unique and rewarding experience including a familial community of support and understanding among faculty, students, and alumni. From 2015-2019, nearly 25% of Black STEM doctorate recipients earned a bachelor's degree from an HBCU and HBCUs produced 33% of the nation's Black computer scientists [1]. Thus, there are successful enculturation practices within STEM education at HBCUs [2] that lead to their students going onto terminal degrees. Through our funded NSF grants #2140867 & #210246, we proposed a knowledge transfer on Black student mentorship, research enculturation and social computing from two HBCUs (Howard University and Johnson C. Smith), to a PWI (University of North Carolina at Charlotte). Our goal is to democratize knowledge and the transfer of information by identifying and disseminating hidden curriculum that creates racial inequities that impede Black students' progress into graduate school. In this workshop we will disseminate our findings for developing Black undergraduate students' technical research ability but also holistically addressing the psychological and social challenges that they may face.

Causal set theory is perhaps the most minimalistic approach to quantum gravity, in the sense that it makes next to zero assumptions about the structure of spacetime below the Planck scale. Yet even with this minimalism, the continuum limit is still a major challenge in causal sets. One aspect of this challenge is the measurement of distances in causal sets. While the definition and estimation of timelike distances is relatively straightforward, dealing with spacelike distances is much more problematic. Here we introduce an approach to measure distances between spacelike separated events based on their causal overlap. We show that the distance estimation errors in this approach vanish in the continuum limit even for the smallest distances of the order of the Planck length. These results are expected to inform the causal set geometrogenesis in general, and in particular the development of evolving causal set models in which space emerges from causal dynamics.

This paper explores the integration of quantum computing, specifically quantum annealing, into robotics for inspecting electrical transmission lines. By using quantum annealing's computational power, we address the dynamics of robot inspectors on transmission line conductors, enhancing the computational efficiency of managing the movements of robot inspectors on transmission line conductors. The use of these robots is crucial for performing efficient and safe inspections. We discuss the mathematical foundations of quantum annealing, transforming differential equations governing robot dynamics into Ising model Hamiltonians suitable for quantum annealing devices. Through experiments using D-Wave's ‘Advantage’ quantum annealer, we demonstrate the viability of quantum annealing in solving complex robotics problems, paving the way for advanced applications in the field.
