Unsupervised Neighborhood Propagation Kernel Layers for Semi-supervised Node Classification

We present a deep Graph Convolutional Kernel Machine (GCKM) for semi-supervised node classification in graphs. The method is built of two main types of blocks: (i) We introduce unsupervised kernel machine layers propagating the node features in a one-hop neighborhood, using implicit node feature mappings. (ii) We specify a semi-supervised classification kernel machine through the lens of the Fenchel-Young inequality. We derive an effective initialization scheme and efficient end-to-end training algorithm in the dual variables for the full architecture. The main idea underlying GCKM is that, because of the unsupervised core, the final model can achieve higher performance in semi-supervised node classification when few labels are available for training. Experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed framework.
Auctions with Tokens: Monetary Policy as a Mechanism Design Choice

I study mechanism design with blockchain-based tokens, that is, tokens that can be used within a mechanism but can also be saved and traded outside of the mechanism. I do so by considering a repeated, private-value auction, in which the auctioneer accepts payments in a blockchain-based token he creates and initially owns. I show that the present-discounted value of the expected revenues is the same as in a standard auction with dollars, but these revenues accrue earlier and are less variable. The optimal monetary policy involves the burning of tokens used in the auction, a common feature of many blockchain-based auctions. I then introduce non-contractible effort and the possibility of misappropriating revenues. I compare the auction with tokens to an auction with dollars in which the auctioneer can also issue financial securities. An auction with tokens is preferred when there are sufficiently severe contracting frictions, while the opposite is true when contracting frictions are low.
Fairness-aware Vision Transformer via Debiased Self-Attention

Vision Transformer (ViT) has recently gained significant interest in solving computer vision (CV) problems due to its capability of extracting informative features and modeling long-range dependencies through the self-attention mechanism. To fully realize the advantages of ViT in real-world applications, recent works have explored the trustworthiness of ViT, including its robustness and explainability. However, another desiderata, fairness has not yet been adequately addressed in the literature. We establish that the existing fairness-aware algorithms (primarily designed for CNNs) do not perform well on ViT. This necessitates the need for developing our novel framework via Debiased Self-Attention (DSA). DSA is a fairness-through-blindness approach that enforces ViT to eliminate spurious features correlated with the sensitive attributes for bias mitigation. Notably, adversarial examples are leveraged to locate and mask the spurious features in the input image patches. In addition, DSA utilizes an attention weights alignment regularizer in the training objective to encourage learning informative features for target prediction. Importantly, our DSA framework leads to improved fairness guarantees over prior works on multiple prediction tasks without compromising target prediction performance.
Dynamic Scheduled Sampling with Imitation Loss for Neural Text Generation

State-of-the-art neural text generation models are typically trained to maximize the likelihood of each token in the ground-truth sequence conditioned on the previous target tokens. However, during inference, the model needs to make a prediction conditioned on the tokens generated by itself. This train-test discrepancy is referred to as exposure bias. Scheduled sampling is a curriculum learning strategy that gradually exposes the model to its own predictions during training to mitigate this bias. Most of the proposed approaches design a scheduler based on training steps, which generally requires careful tuning depending on the training setup. In this work, we introduce Dynamic Scheduled Sampling with Imitation Loss (DySI), which maintains the schedule based solely on the training time accuracy, while enhancing the curriculum learning by introducing an imitation loss, which attempts to make the behavior of the decoder indistinguishable from the behavior of a teacher-forced decoder. DySI is universally applicable across training setups with minimal tuning. Extensive experiments and analysis show that DySI not only achieves notable improvements on standard machine translation benchmarks, but also significantly improves the robustness of other text generation models.
Toward Efficient Gradient-Based Value Estimation

Gradient-based methods for value estimation in reinforcement learning have favorable stability properties, but they are typically much slower than Temporal Difference (TD) learning methods. We study the root causes of this slowness and show that Mean Square Bellman Error (MSBE) is an ill-conditioned loss function in the sense that its Hessian has large condition-number. To resolve the adverse effect of poor conditioning of MSBE on gradient based methods, we propose a low complexity batch-free proximal method that approximately follows the Gauss-Newton direction and is asymptotically robust to parameterization. Our main algorithm, called RANS, is efficient in the sense that it is significantly faster than the residual gradient methods while having almost the same computational complexity, and is competitive with TD on the classic problems that we tested.
Pemanfaatan Air Hujan Dalam Perspektif Al-Qur'an: 

Utilization of Rainwater in the Perspective of the Koran (Study of the Koran Surah al-Anfal Verse 11 According to Buya Hamka). Rain is a form of natural balance created by Allah SWT. Without rain, the quantity of water on earth will not be sufficient for life in it.This research focuses on examining the opinion of a person that rain always causes disaster, not a blessing. Because with one of the changes in the weather that can cause disaster, it makes a person forget the favors or benefits behind something that God created, like rain. Rainwater is an abundant source of water, especially during the rainy season. Conversely, if rainwater is not managed properly, it can cause disasters, such as floods and landslides. From this background, the author raises this theme focusing on the formulation of the problem as follows. 1) Buya Hamka's interpretation of surah Al-Anfal verse 11? 2) Knowing the benefits of rain for health according to surah Al-Anfal verse 11?. This research is a library research that makes Tafsir Al-Azhar the primary source. The method in this research is to use the tahlili interpretation method. with other words in one verse or several verses. From the results of this study, the authors found that the rainwater described in the Qur'an is not just water that we usually encounter in everyday life, but also explained about rainwater that rainwater can clean oneself clean and open. Rainwater can also eliminate whispers. devil whispers. And rainwater also brings joy and freedom, the heart is strong and firm&#x0D; Keywords: Rain, Benefits
Properties of nanocellulose and zirconia alumina on polymethylmethacrylate dental composite

Background: Polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) is one of the synthetic polymers generally used for temporary jacket crown restorations because of its good translucency, making its aesthetic value higher, but its mechanical properties, such as hardness and flexural strength are lower than composite resins. Hence, adding zirconia and cellulose filler is necessary to enhance its mechanical properties. Purpose: This is an experimental laboratory study to make nanocomposites with PMMA as a matrix with crystalline nanocellulose, zirconia, and alumina added as fillers. Methods: The crystalline nanocellulose filler was synthesized by acid hydrolysis. Zirconia and alumina were synthesized using the sol-gel technique and then characterized by transmission electron microscope and X-ray diffraction. The Micro Vickers hardness test and three-point bending tested mechanical properties. The analysis was carried out with a one-way analysis of variance, followed by a post hoc Tuckey’s test with a P &lt; 0.05 taken as statistically significant. Results: The Micro Vickers hardness test showed the highest hardness in the group with a ratio of PMMA and zirconia-alumina filler of 50%: 2%: 48% (12.73 VHN). The results of the three-point bending test showed that the highest flexural strength was found in the control group (19.4 MPa). Conclusion: The addition of crystalline nanocellulose, zirconia, and alumina increase the hardness of the nanocomposite, while the flexural strength was lower than PMMA without filler addition.
