Orthogonal projection-based regularization for efficient model augmentation

Orthogonal projection-based regularization for efficient model augmentation

This blog post delves into the challenges and solutions associated with deep-learning-based nonlinear system identification models. We explore a proposed solution that integrates prior physical knowledge into the model structure, combining physics-based modeling and deep-learning-based identification. We also discuss an orthogonal projection-based regularization technique that enhances parameter learning, convergence, and model accuracy. The blog further explores the optimization of an augmented model using the SUBNET method, the benefits of the T-step ahead prediction cost, and the importance of input-output normalization. We also touch on the problem of non-unique parametrization and a proposed solution using an orthogonality-promoting term in the cost function.

Improving Zero-Shot Object-Level Change Detection by Incorporating Visual Correspondence

In this blog post, we delve into a novel method for improving object-level change detection between two images. We address three major limitations in current approaches: unreported false positives, lack of correspondence, and poor zero-shot generalization across different domains. The proposed method leverages change correspondences during training to enhance change detection accuracy and minimize false positives. We'll explore the scientific article that discusses this method, its key features, and its potential impact on the field of machine learning.

Efficient LLM Inference with Activation Checkpointing and Hybrid Caching

Efficient LLM Inference with Activation Checkpointing and Hybrid Caching

In the realm of machine learning, large language models (LLMs) are becoming increasingly critical. However, their growing model sizes require significant GPU memory capacity, leading to high costs. This blog post delves into the challenges of key-value (KV) cache management and batched LLM inference, and introduces HybridServe, a system designed to enhance the efficiency of LLMs. HybridServe uses a hybrid caching strategy, employing both KV cache and Activation cache to optimize performance. The system also employs a two-step allocation policy to balance KV and ACT blocks in host memory, and a dynamic mini-batch formation to balance KV and activation within a single request. The result is a significant improvement in GPU utilization and a reduction in excessive computations.

Filter or Compensate: Towards Invariant Representation from Distribution Shift for Anomaly Detection

In this blog, we delve into the challenges of Anomaly Detection (AD) methods in handling real-world data that exhibits distribution shift. We introduce Filter or Compensate (FiCo), a system designed to address this issue by compensating distribution-specific information and filtering abnormal information to capture distribution-invariant normality. We explore how FiCo outperforms existing methods, even in in-distribution scenarios compared to Reverse Distillation-based methods. We also discuss tackling the "normality forgetting" issue in Out-of-Distribution (OOD) generalization, and the introduction of a novel scientific method, the DiIFi module, used in network training. Lastly, we present the results of the FiCo system performance on different datasets.
