the real world. In this paper we propose the use of knowledge-based systems to
monitor other AI systems in operation. We motivate and provide a problem
analysis of this novel setting and subsequently propose a framework that allows
for structuring future research related to this setting. Several directions for
further research are also discussed.

Jean-Gabriel Ganascia | Action Languages Based Actual Causality for Computational Ethics: a
Sound and Complete Implementation in ASP | 22 pages, 7 figures | null | null | null | cs.AI | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/ | Although moral responsibility is not circumscribed by causality, they are
both closely intermixed. Furthermore, rationally understanding the evolution of
the physical world is inherently linked with the idea of causality. Thus, the
decision-making applications based on automated planning inevitably have to
deal with causality, especially if they consider imputability aspects or
integrate references to ethical norms. The many debates around causation in the
last decades have shown how complex this notion is and thus, how difficult is
its integration with planning. As a result, much of the work in computational
ethics relegates causality to the background, despite the considerations stated
above. This paper's contribution is to provide a complete and sound translation
into logic programming from an actual causation definition suitable for action
languages, this definition is a formalisation of Wright's NESS test. The
obtained logic program allows to deal with complex causal relations. In
addition to enabling agents to reason about causality, this contribution
specifically enables the computational ethics domain to handle situations that
were previously out of reach. In a context where ethical considerations in
decision-making are increasingly important, advances in computational ethics
can greatly benefit the entire AI community.

features is considered a crucial factor, and it has shown significant
improvements to many traditional models, including but not limited to matrix
factorization, auto-encoders, and nearest neighbor models. While there are
numerous image-based recommender approaches that utilize dedicated deep neural
networks, comparisons to attribute-aware models are often disregarded despite
their ability to be easily extended to leverage items' image features. In this
paper, we propose a simple yet effective attribute-aware model that
incorporates image features for better item representation learning in item
recommendation tasks. The proposed model utilizes items' image features
extracted by a calibrated ResNet50 component. We present an ablation study to
compare incorporating the image features using three different techniques into
the recommender system component that can seamlessly leverage any available
items' attributes. Experiments on two image-based real-world recommender
systems datasets show that the proposed model significantly outperforms all
state-of-the-art image-based models.

Woltran | Rediscovering Argumentation Principles Utilizing Collective Attacks | null | null | null | null | cs.AI | http://arxiv.org/licenses/nonexclusive-distrib/1.0/ | Argumentation Frameworks (AFs) are a key formalism in AI research. Their
semantics have been investigated in terms of principles, which define
characteristic properties in order to deliver guidance for analysing
established and developing new semantics. Because of the simple structure of
AFs, many desired properties hold almost trivially, at the same time hiding
interesting concepts behind syntactic notions. We extend the principle-based
approach to Argumentation Frameworks with Collective Attacks (SETAFs) and
provide a comprehensive overview of common principles for their semantics. Our
analysis shows that investigating principles based on decomposing the given
SETAF (e.g. directionality or SCC-recursiveness) poses additional challenges in
comparison to usual AFs. We introduce the notion of the reduct as well as the
modularization principle for SETAFs which will prove beneficial for this kind
of investigation. We then demonstrate how our findings can be utilized for
incremental computation of extensions and give a novel parameterized
tractability result for verifying preferred extensions.

Learning | null | null | null | null | cs.AI | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ | Recommending a sequence of activities for an ongoing case requires that the
recommendations conform to the underlying business process and meet the
performance goal of either completion time or process outcome. Existing work on
next activity prediction can predict the future activity but cannot provide
guarantees of the prediction being conformant or meeting the goal. Hence, we
propose a goal-oriented next best activity recommendation. Our proposed
framework uses a deep learning model to predict the next best activity and an
estimated value of a goal given the activity. A reinforcement learning method
explores the sequence of activities based on the estimates likely to meet one
or more goals. We further address a real-world problem of multiple goals by
introducing an additional reward function to balance the outcome of a
recommended activity and satisfy the goal. We demonstrate the effectiveness of
the proposed method on four real-world datasets with different characteristics.
The results show that the recommendations from our proposed approach outperform
in goal satisfaction and conformance compared to the existing state-of-the-art
next best activity recommendation techniques.

Intelligence (IJCAI) 2022 | null | null | null | cs.AI | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/ | Datasets involving sequences of different types of events without meaningful
time stamps are prevalent in many applications, for instance when extracted
from textual corpora. We propose a family of models for such event sequences --
summary Markov models -- where the probability of observing an event type
depends only on a summary of historical occurrences of its influencing set of
event types. This Markov model family is motivated by Granger causal models for
time series, with the important distinction that only one event can occur in a
position in an event sequence. We show that a unique minimal influencing set
exists for any set of event types of interest and choice of summary function,
formulate two novel models from the general family that represent specific
sequence dynamics, and propose a greedy search algorithm for learning them from
event sequence data. We conduct an experimental investigation comparing the
proposed models with relevant baselines, and illustrate their knowledge
acquisition and discovery capabilities through case studies involving sequences
from text.

and Research Challenges | null | null | null | null | cs.AI | http://arxiv.org/licenses/nonexclusive-distrib/1.0/ | Artificial Intelligence (AI) is a fast-growing research and development (R&D)
discipline which is attracting increasing attention because of its promises to
bring vast benefits for consumers and businesses, with considerable benefits
promised in productivity growth and innovation. To date it has reported
significant accomplishments in many areas that have been deemed as challenging
for machines, ranging from computer vision, natural language processing, audio
analysis to smart sensing and many others. The technical trend in realizing the
successes has been towards increasing complex and large size AI models so as to
solve more complex problems at superior performance and robustness. This rapid
progress, however, has taken place at the expense of substantial environmental
costs and resources. Besides, debates on the societal impacts of AI, such as
fairness, safety and privacy, have continued to grow in intensity. These issues
have presented major concerns pertaining to the sustainable development of AI.
In this work, we review major trends in machine learning approaches that can
address the sustainability problem of AI. Specifically, we examine emerging AI
methodologies and algorithms for addressing the sustainability issue of AI in
two major aspects, i.e., environmental sustainability and social sustainability
of AI. We will also highlight the major limitations of existing studies and
propose potential research challenges and directions for the development of
next generation of sustainable AI techniques. We believe that this technical
review can help to promote a sustainable development of AI R&D activities for
the research community.

deploying ML models can perpetuate existing biases against racial minorities,
as bias can be implicitly embedded in data. In this study, we investigate the
level of implicit race information available to ML models and human experts and
the implications of model-detectable differences in clinical notes. Our work
makes three key contributions. First, we find that models can identify patient
self-reported race from clinical notes even when the notes are stripped of
explicit indicators of race. Second, we determine that human experts are not
able to accurately predict patient race from the same redacted clinical notes.
Finally, we demonstrate the potential harm of this implicit information in a
simulation study, and show that models trained on these race-redacted clinical
notes can still perpetuate existing biases in clinical treatment decisions.

of its top claim, which typically concerns safety or security. A natural
question is then "how much" confidence does the case provide? We argue that
confidence cannot be reduced to a single attribute or measurement. Instead, we
suggest it should be based on attributes that draw on three different
perspectives: positive, negative, and residual doubts.
Positive Perspectives consider the extent to which the evidence and overall
argument of the case combine to make a positive statement justifying belief in
its claims. We set a high bar for justification, requiring it to be
indefeasible. The primary positive measure for this is soundness, which
interprets the argument as a logical proof. Confidence in evidence can be
expressed probabilistically and we use confirmation measures to ensure that the
"weight" of evidence crosses some threshold. In addition, probabilities can be
aggregated from evidence through the steps of the argument using probability
logics to yield what we call probabilistic valuations for the claims.
Negative Perspectives record doubts and challenges to the case, typically
expressed as defeaters, and their exploration and resolution. Assurance
developers must guard against confirmation bias and should vigorously explore
potential defeaters as they develop the case, and should record them and their
resolution to avoid rework and to aid reviewers.
Residual Doubts: the world is uncertain so not all potential defeaters can be
resolved. We explore risks and may deem them acceptable or unavoidable. It is
crucial however that these judgments are conscious ones and that they are
recorded in the assurance case.
This report examines the perspectives in detail and indicates how Clarissa,
our prototype toolset for Assurance 2.0, assists in their evaluation.

Programming (ICLP 2022), 16 pages | null | null | null | cs.AI | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ | Justification theory is a general framework for the definition of semantics
of rule-based languages that has a high explanatory potential. Nested
justification systems, first introduced by Denecker et al. (2015), allow for
the composition of justification systems. This notion of nesting thus enables
the modular definition of semantics of rule-based languages, and increases the
representational capacities of justification theory. As we show in this paper,
the original semantics for nested justification systems lead to the loss of
information relevant for explanations. In view of this problem, we provide an
alternative characterization of semantics of nested justification systems and
show that this characterization is equivalent to the original semantics.
Furthermore, we show how nested justification systems allow representing
fixpoint definitions (Hou and Denecker 2009).

Sebasti\'a | Scaling-up Generalized Planning as Heuristic Search with Landmarks | Accepted at SoCS 2022 (extended version) | null | null | null | cs.AI | http://arxiv.org/licenses/nonexclusive-distrib/1.0/ | Landmarks are one of the most effective search heuristics for classical
planning, but largely ignored in generalized planning. Generalized planning
(GP) is usually addressed as a combinatorial search in a given space of
algorithmic solutions, where candidate solutions are evaluated w.r.t.~the
instances they solve. This type of solution evaluation ignores any sub-goal
information that is not explicit in the representation of the planning
instances, causing plateaus in the space of candidate generalized plans.
Furthermore, node expansion in GP is a run-time bottleneck since it requires
evaluating every child node over the entire batch of classical planning
instances in a GP problem. In this paper we define a landmark counting
heuristic for GP (that considers sub-goal information that is not explicitly
represented in the planning instances), and a novel heuristic search algorithm
for GP (that we call PGP) and that progressively processes subsets of the
planning instances of a GP problem. Our two orthogonal contributions are
analyzed in an ablation study, showing that both improve the state-of-the-art
in GP as heuristic search, and that both benefit from each other when used in
combination.

conclusions from a set of premises. Starting from hypothetical thoughts, we are
interested which are the implications behind basic everyday language and how do
we reason with them. A widely studied topic is whether cognitive theories can
account for typical reasoning tasks and be confirmed by own empirical
experiments. This paper takes a different view and we do not propose a theory,
but instead take findings from the literature and show how these, formalized as
cognitive principles within a logical framework, can establish a quantitative
notion of reasoning, which we call plausibility. For this purpose, we employ
techniques from non-monotonic reasoning and computer science, namely, a solving
paradigm called answer set programming (ASP). Finally, we can fruitfully use
plausibility reasoning in ASP to test the effects of an existing experiment and
explain different majority responses.

Budget Allocation | null | null | null | null | cs.AI | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ | Stochastic sequential decision making often requires hierarchical structure
in the problem where each high-level action should be further planned with
primitive states and actions. In addition, many real-world applications require
a plan that satisfies constraints on the secondary costs such as risk measure
or fuel consumption. In this paper, we propose a hierarchical constrained
stochastic shortest path problem (HC-SSP) that meets those two crucial
requirements in a single framework. Although HC-SSP provides a useful framework
to model such planning requirements in many real-world applications, the
resulting problem has high complexity and makes it difficult to find an optimal
solution fast which prevents user from applying it to real-time and
risk-sensitive applications. To address this problem, we present an algorithm
that iteratively allocates cost budget to lower level planning problems based
on branch-and-bound scheme to find a feasible solution fast and incrementally
update the incumbent solution. We demonstrate the proposed algorithm in an
evacuation scenario and prove the advantage over a state-of-the-art
mathematical programming based approach.

makes the test more robust against simple deceptions. We also propose a small
number of refinements to improve further the test. These refinements could be
applied also to Turing's original imitation game.

Relaxation over Probabilistic Circuits | 11 pages (8+3 Appendix). To be published in IJCAI 2022 | null | null | null | cs.AI | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ | In many domains, worst-case guarantees on the performance (e.g., prediction
accuracy) of a decision function subject to distributional shifts and
uncertainty about the environment are crucial. In this work we develop a method
to quantify the robustness of decision functions with respect to credal
Bayesian networks, formal parametric models of the environment where
uncertainty is expressed through credal sets on the parameters. In particular,
we address the maximum marginal probability (MARmax) problem, that is,
determining the greatest probability of an event (such as misclassification)
obtainable for parameters in the credal set. We develop a method to faithfully
transfer the problem into a constrained optimization problem on a probabilistic
circuit. By performing a simple constraint relaxation, we show how to obtain a
guaranteed upper bound on MARmax in linear time in the size of the circuit. We
further theoretically characterize this constraint relaxation in terms of the
original Bayesian network structure, which yields insight into the tightness of
the bound. We implement the method and provide experimental evidence that the
upper bound is often near tight and demonstrates improved scalability compared
to other methods.

explainability in explainable AI-both to increase the transparency of AI
systems and to provide recourse. Cognitive science and psychology, however,
have pointed out that people regularly use CFs to express causal relationships.
Most AI systems are only able to capture associations or correlations in data
so interpreting them as casual would not be justified. In this paper, we
present two experiment (total N = 364) exploring the effects of CF explanations
of AI system's predictions on lay people's causal beliefs about the real world.
In Experiment 1 we found that providing CF explanations of an AI system's
predictions does indeed (unjustifiably) affect people's causal beliefs
regarding factors/features the AI uses and that people are more likely to view
them as causal factors in the real world. Inspired by the literature on
misinformation and health warning messaging, Experiment 2 tested whether we can
correct for the unjustified change in causal beliefs. We found that pointing
out that AI systems capture correlations and not necessarily causal
relationships can attenuate the effects of CF explanations on people's causal
beliefs.

new sequences while reasoning over relational data, is critical to machine
intelligence. A model with strong systematicity is able to train on small-scale
tasks and generalize to large-scale tasks. In this paper, we propose R5, a
relational reasoning framework based on reinforcement learning that reasons
over relational graph data and explicitly mines underlying compositional
logical rules from observations. R5 has strong systematicity and being robust
to noisy data. It consists of a policy value network equipped with Monte Carlo
Tree Search to perform recurrent relational prediction and a backtrack
rewriting mechanism for rule mining. By alternately applying the two
components, R5 progressively learns a set of explicit rules from data and
performs explainable and generalizable relation prediction. We conduct
extensive evaluations on multiple datasets. Experimental results show that R5
outperforms various embedding-based and rule induction baselines on relation
prediction tasks while achieving a high recall rate in discovering ground truth
rules.

on the exhibited behavior as well as topics relating to the use of or
accounting for beliefs with respect to applicable skills or mental states of
others. In this work, we will continue the discussion from the perspective of
methods which focus on the assumed cognitive abilities, limitations, and biases
demonstrated in human reasoning. We will arrange these topics as follows (i)
methods such as cognitive architectures, cognitive heuristics, and related
which demonstrate assumptions of limitations on cognitive resources and how
that impacts decisions and (ii) methods which generate and utilize
representations of bias or uncertainty to model human decision-making or the

such as game theory, theory of mind, machine learning, etc. all integrate
concepts which are assumed components of human reasoning. These serve as
techniques to attempt to both replicate and understand the behaviors of humans.
In addition, next generation autonomous and adaptive systems will largely
include AI agents and humans working together as teams. To make this possible,
autonomous agents will require the ability to embed practical models of human
behavior, which allow them not only to replicate human models as a technique to
"learn", but to to understand the actions of users and anticipate their
behavior, so as to truly operate in symbiosis with them. The main objective of
this paper it to provide a succinct yet systematic review of the most important
approaches in two areas dealing with quantitative models of human behaviors.
Specifically, we focus on (i) techniques which learn a model or policy of
behavior through exploration and feedback, such as Reinforcement Learning, and
(ii) directly model mechanisms of human reasoning, such as beliefs and bias,
without going necessarily learning via trial-and-error.

Decisions | 24 pages, 11 figures, 7 tables | null | null | null | cs.AI | http://arxiv.org/licenses/nonexclusive-distrib/1.0/ | Many software systems, such as online social networks enable users to share
information about themselves. While the action of sharing is simple, it
requires an elaborate thought process on privacy: what to share, with whom to
share, and for what purposes. Thinking about these for each piece of content to
be shared is tedious. Recent approaches to tackle this problem build personal
assistants that can help users by learning what is private over time and
recommending privacy labels such as private or public to individual content
that a user considers sharing. However, privacy is inherently ambiguous and
highly personal. Existing approaches to recommend privacy decisions do not
address these aspects of privacy sufficiently. Ideally, a personal assistant
should be able to adjust its recommendation based on a given user, considering
that user's privacy understanding. Moreover, the personal assistant should be
able to assess when its recommendation would be uncertain and let the user make
the decision on her own. Accordingly, this paper proposes a personal assistant
that uses evidential deep learning to classify content based on its privacy
label. An important characteristic of the personal assistant is that it can
model its uncertainty in its decisions explicitly, determine that it does not
know the answer, and delegate from making a recommendation when its uncertainty
is high. By factoring in the user's own understanding of privacy, such as risk
factors or own labels, the personal assistant can personalize its
recommendations per user. We evaluate our proposed personal assistant using a
well-known data set. Our results show that our personal assistant can
accurately identify uncertain cases, personalize them to its user's needs, and
thus helps users preserve their privacy well.

such a formula should be justified by a proof. I try to formalize this
perception of information. The measure of informativeness of a proof is based
on the set of proofs related to the formulas under consideration. This set of
possible proofs (`a knowledge base') defines a probabilistic measure, and
entropic weight is defined using this measure. The paper is mainly conceptual,
it is not clear where and how this approach can be applied.

Moreover, semantics can assist data scientists in a new manner by helping with

spacial reasoning. The goal of terrain analysis is to gather and process data
about the map topology and properties to have a qualitative spatial
representation. On StarCraft games, all previous works on terrain analysis
propose a crisp analysis based on connected component detection, Voronoi
diagram computation and pruning, and region merging. Those methods have been
implemented as game-specific libraries, and they can only offer the same kind
of analysis for all maps and all users. In this paper, we propose a way to
consider terrain analysis as a combinatorial optimization problem. Our method
allows different kinds of analysis by changing constraints or the objective
function in the problem model. We also present a library, Taunt, implementing
our method and able to handle both StarCraft 1 and StarCraft 2 maps. This makes
our library a universal tool for StarCraft bots with different spatial
representation needs. We believe our library unlocks the possibility to have
real adaptive AIs playing StarCraft, and can be the starting point of a new
wave of bots.

$(O,G)$-granular variable precision fuzzy rough sets ($(O,G)$-GVPFRSs for

work out the approximation operators efficiently, we give another expression of
upper and lower approximation operators by means of fuzzy implications and
co-implications. Furthermore, starting from the perspective of construction
methods, $(O,G)$-GVPFRSs are represented under diverse fuzzy relations.
Finally, some conclusions on the granular variable precision fuzzy rough sets
(GVPFRSs for short) are extended to $(O,G)$-GVPFRSs under some additional

methods, elaborating their applications and limitations. Further, we
distinguish the methods based on their underlying algorithms and the

challenges in industrial datasets, we bring forward $4$ research questions
(RQs). These RQs empirically analyse the algorithms from the perspective of
\textit{Hubness, Degree distribution, Non-isomorphic neighbourhood,} and
\textit{Name bias}. For Hubness, where one entity turns up as the nearest
neighbour of many other entities, we define an $h$-score to quantify its effect
on the performance of various algorithms. Additionally, we try to level the
playing field for algorithms that rely primarily on name-bias existing in the
benchmarking open-source datasets by creating a low name bias dataset. We
further create an open-source repository for $14$ embedding-based EA methods
and present the analysis for invoking further research motivations in the field
of EA.

is a problem that naturally arises in many areas of Computer Science. In this
work, we interpret this problem in the context of intelligent agents, from the
perspective of LTLf, a formalism commonly used in AI for expressing
finite-trace properties. Our model consists of two separated dynamic domains,
D_A and D_B, and an LTLf specification that formalizes the notion of mimicking
by mapping properties on behaviors (traces) of D_A into properties on behaviors
of D_B. The goal is to synthesize a strategy that step-by-step maps every
behavior of D_A into a behavior of D_B so that the specification is met. We
consider several forms of mapping specifications, ranging from simple ones to
full LTLf, and for each we study synthesis algorithms and computational
properties.

improving the overall system reliability as agents are required to rely on
limited environmental information to develop cooperative and coordinated
behaviors with the surrounding agents. However, previous studies have often
applied centralized noise reduction methods to build robust and versatile
coordination in noisy multi-agent environments, while distributed and
decentralized autonomous agents are more plausible for real-world application.
In this paper, we introduce a \emph{distributed attentional actor architecture
model for a multi-agent system} (DA3-X), using which we demonstrate that agents
with DA3-X can selectively learn the noisy environment and behave
cooperatively. We experimentally evaluate the effectiveness of DA3-X by
comparing learning methods with and without DA3-X and show that agents with
DA3-X can achieve better performance than baseline agents. Furthermore, we
visualize heatmaps of \emph{attentional weights} from the DA3-X to analyze how
the decision-making process and coordinated behavior are influenced by noise.

Adaptation to Environmental Changes | 9 pages, 5 figures | null | null | null | cs.AI | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ | Developments in reinforcement learning (RL) have allowed algorithms to
achieve impressive performance in highly complex, but largely static problems.
In contrast, biological learning seems to value efficiency of adaptation to a
constantly-changing world. Here we build on a recently-proposed neuronal
learning rule that assumes each neuron can optimize its energy balance by
predicting its own future activity. That assumption leads to a neuronal
learning rule that uses presynaptic input to modulate prediction error. We
argue that an analogous RL rule would use action probability to modulate reward
prediction error. This modulation makes the agent more sensitive to negative
experiences, and more careful in forming preferences. We embed the proposed
rule in both tabular and deep-Q-network RL algorithms, and find that it
outperforms conventional algorithms in simple, but highly-dynamic tasks. We
suggest that the new rule encapsulates a core principle of biological
intelligence; an important component for allowing algorithms to adapt to change
in a human-like way.

computational model (AIGenC) that lays down the necessary components to enable
artificial agents to learn, use and generate transferable representations.
Unlike machine representation learning, which relies exclusively on raw sensory
data, biological representations incorporate relational and associative
information that embeds rich and structured concept spaces. The AIGenC model
poses a hierarchical graph architecture with various levels and types of
representations procured by different components. The first component, Concept
Processing, extracts objects and affordances from sensory input and encodes
them into a concept space. The resulting representations are stored in a dual
memory system and enriched with goal-directed and temporal information acquired
through reinforcement learning, creating a higher-level of abstraction. Two
additional components work in parallel to detect and recover relevant concepts
and create new ones, respectively, in a process akin to cognitive Reflective
Reasoning and Blending. The Reflective Reasoning unit detects and recovers from
memory concepts relevant to the task by means of a matching process that
calculates a similarity value between the current state and memory graph
structures. Once the matching interaction ends, rewards and temporal
information are added to the graph, building further abstractions. If the
reflective reasoning processing fails to offer a suitable solution, a blending
operation comes into place, creating new concepts by combining past
information. We discuss the model's capability to yield better
out-of-distribution generalisation in artificial agents, thus advancing toward
Artificial General Intelligence.

Advertising | 10 pages, 3figures | null | null | null | cs.AI | http://arxiv.org/licenses/nonexclusive-distrib/1.0/ | Online advertising driven by auctions brings billions of dollars in revenue
for social networking services and e-commerce platforms. GSP auctions, which
are simple and easy to understand for advertisers, have almost become the
benchmark for ad auction mechanisms in the industry. However, most GSP-based
industrial practices assume that the user click only relies on the ad itself,
which overlook the effect of external items, referred to as externalities.
Recently, DNA has attempted to upgrade GSP with deep neural networks and models
local externalities to some extent. However, it only considers set-level
contexts from auctions and ignores the order and displayed position of ads,
which is still suboptimal. Although VCG-based multi-slot auctions (e.g., VCG,
WVCG) make it theoretically possible to model global externalities (e.g., the
order and positions of ads and so on), they lack an efficient balance of both
revenue and social welfare. In this paper, we propose novel auction mechanisms
named Neural Multi-slot Auctions (NMA) to tackle the above-mentioned
challenges. Specifically, we model the global externalities effectively with a
context-aware list-wise prediction module to achieve better performance. We
design a list-wise deep rank module to guarantee incentive compatibility in
end-to-end learning. Furthermore, we propose an auxiliary loss for social
welfare to effectively reduce the decline of social welfare while maximizing
revenue. Experiment results on both offline large-scale datasets and online A/B
tests demonstrate that NMA obtains higher revenue with balanced social welfare
than other existing auction mechanisms (i.e., GSP, DNA, WVCG) in industrial
practice, and we have successfully deployed NMA on Meituan food delivery
platform.

method for algorithmic interpretability. In this work, we build upon
programming language theory and cognitive load theory to develop a framework
for measuring algorithmic interpretability. The proposed measurement framework
reflects the process of a human learning an algorithm. We show that the
measurement framework and the resulting cognitive complexity score have the
following desirable properties - universality, computability, uniqueness, and
monotonicity. We illustrate the measurement framework through a toy example,
describe the framework and its conceptual underpinnings, and demonstrate the
benefits of the framework, in particular for managers considering tradeoffs
when selecting algorithms.

https://www.techrxiv.org/articles/preprint/Computable_Artificial_General_Intelligence/19740190 | null | null | null | cs.AI | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/ | Artificial general intelligence (AGI) may herald our extinction, according to
AI safety research. Yet claims regarding AGI must rely upon mathematical
formalisms -- theoretical agents we may analyse or attempt to build. AIXI
appears to be the only such formalism supported by proof that its behaviour is
optimal, a consequence of its use of compression as a proxy for intelligence.
Unfortunately, AIXI is incomputable and claims regarding its behaviour highly
subjective. We argue that this is because AIXI formalises cognition as taking
place in isolation from the environment in which goals are pursued (Cartesian
dualism). We propose an alternative, supported by proof and experiment, which
overcomes these problems. Integrating research from cognitive science with AI,
we formalise an enactive model of learning and reasoning to address the problem
of subjectivity. This allows us to formulate a different proxy for
intelligence, called weakness, which addresses the problem of incomputability.
We prove optimal behaviour is attained when weakness is maximised. This proof
is supplemented by experimental results comparing weakness and description
length (the closest analogue to compression possible without reintroducing
subjectivity). Weakness outperforms description length, suggesting it is a
better proxy. Furthermore we show that, if cognition is enactive, then
minimisation of description length is neither necessary nor sufficient to
attain optimal performance, undermining the notion that compression is closely
related to intelligence. However, there remain open questions regarding the
implementation of scale-able AGI. In the short term, these results may be best
utilised to improve the performance of existing systems. For example, our
results explain why Deepmind's Apperception Engine is able to generalise
effectively, and how to replicate that performance by maximising weakness.

In this paper, we present a set of reusable and reproducible resources
including (1) a dataset generator, (2) three datasets generated by using the
generator, and (3) three baseline approaches. We describe the UVA dataset
generator and its implementation generalized for any given UMLS release. We
demonstrate the use of the dataset generator by generating datasets
corresponding to three UMLS releases, 2020AA, 2021AA, and 2021AB. We provide
three UVA baselines using the three existing approaches (LexLM, ConLM, and
RBA). The code, the datasets, and the experiments are publicly available,
reusable, and reproducible with any UMLS release (a no-cost license agreement

intelligent facilitator that learns to sift through and interpret signals
provided by all agents to improve the agents' collective performance. To ensure
that this facilitator does not become a centralized controller, agents are
incentivized to reduce their dependence on the messages it conveys, and the
messages can only influence the selection of a policy from a fixed set, not
instantaneous actions given the policy. We demonstrate the strength of this
architecture over existing baselines on several cooperative MARL environments.

Theorem Provers | null | null | null | null | cs.AI | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ | In theorem proving, the task of selecting useful premises from a large
library to unlock the proof of a given conjecture is crucially important. This
presents a challenge for all theorem provers, especially the ones based on
language models, due to their relative inability to reason over huge volumes of
premises in text form. This paper introduces Thor, a framework integrating
language models and automated theorem provers to overcome this difficulty. In
Thor, a class of methods called hammers that leverage the power of automated
theorem provers are used for premise selection, while all other tasks are
designated to language models. Thor increases a language model's success rate
on the PISA dataset from $39\%$ to $57\%$, while solving $8.2\%$ of problems
neither language models nor automated theorem provers are able to solve on
their own. Furthermore, with a significantly smaller computational budget, Thor
can achieve a success rate on the MiniF2F dataset that is on par with the best
existing methods. Thor can be instantiated for the majority of popular
interactive theorem provers via a straightforward protocol we provide.

Randomization Reinforcement Learning | 10 pages,4 figures | null | null | null | cs.AI | http://arxiv.org/licenses/nonexclusive-distrib/1.0/ | The existing network attack and defense method can be regarded as game, but
most of the game only involves network domain, not multiple domain cyberspace.
To address this challenge, this paper proposed a multiple domain cyberspace
attack and defense game model based on reinforcement learning. We define the
multiple domain cyberspace include physical domain, network domain and digital
domain. By establishing two agents, representing the attacker and the defender
respectively, defender will select the multiple domain actions in the multiple
domain cyberspace to obtain defender's optimal reward by reinforcement
learning. In order to improve the defense ability of defender, a game model
based on reward randomization reinforcement learning is proposed. When the
defender takes the multiple domain defense action, the reward is randomly given
and subject to linear distribution, so as to find the better defense policy and
improve defense success rate. The experimental results show that the game model
can effectively simulate the attack and defense state of multiple domain
cyberspace, and the proposed method has a higher defense success rate than DDPG
and DQN.

sparsity methods have received ever-increasing research focus to compress and
accelerate the models. While most research focuses on how to accurately retain
appropriate weights while maintaining the performance of the compressed model,
there are challenges in the computational overhead and memory footprint of
sparse training when compressing large-scale language models. To address this
problem, we propose a Parameter-efficient Sparse Training (PST) method to
reduce the number of trainable parameters during sparse-aware training in
downstream tasks. Specifically, we first combine the data-free and data-driven
criteria to efficiently and accurately measure the importance of weights. Then
we investigate the intrinsic redundancy of data-driven weight importance and
derive two obvious characteristics i.e., low-rankness and structuredness. Based
on that, two groups of small matrices are introduced to compute the data-driven
importance of weights, instead of using the original large importance score
matrix, which therefore makes the sparse training resource-efficient and
parameter-efficient. Experiments with diverse networks (i.e., BERT, RoBERTa and
GPT-2) on dozens of datasets demonstrate PST performs on par or better than
previous sparsity methods, despite only training a small number of parameters.
For instance, compared with previous sparsity methods, our PST only requires
1.5% trainable parameters to achieve comparable performance on BERT.

student model with the help of a well-trained teacher model. However, most KD
methods require access to either the teacher's training data or model
parameters, which is unrealistic. To tackle this problem, recent works study KD
under data-free and black-box settings. Nevertheless, these works require a
large number of queries to the teacher model, which incurs significant monetary
and computational costs. To address these problems, we propose a novel method
called \emph{query-effIcient Data-free lEarning from blAck-box modeLs} (IDEAL),
which aims to query-efficiently learn from black-box model APIs to train a good
student without any real data. In detail, IDEAL trains the student model in two
stages: data generation and model distillation. Note that IDEAL does not
require any query in the data generation stage and queries the teacher only
once for each sample in the distillation stage. Extensive experiments on
various real-world datasets show the effectiveness of the proposed IDEAL. For
instance, IDEAL can improve the performance of the best baseline method DFME by
5.83% on CIFAR10 dataset with only 0.02x the query budget of DFME.

to execute multiple workflows. Workflow scheduling plays an important role in
multi-workflow execution with multi-objective requirements. Although there
exist many multi-objective scheduling algorithms, they focus mainly on
optimizing makespan and cost for a single workflow. There is a limited research
on multi-objective optimization for multi-workflow scheduling. Considering
multi-workflow scheduling, there is an additional key objective to maintain the
fairness of workflows using the resources. To address such issues, this paper
first defines a new multi-objective optimization model based on makespan, cost,
and fairness, and then proposes a global clustering-based multi-workflow
scheduling strategy for resource allocation. Experimental results show that the
proposed approach performs better than the compared algorithms without
significant compromise of the overall makespan and cost as well as individual
fairness, which can guide the simulation workflow scheduling on clouds.

it allows exploration of scenarios and assessment of methods in settings with
full control of ground truth. Directed acyclic graphs (DAGs) are well
established for encoding the dependence structure over a collection of
variables in both inference and simulation settings. However, while modern
machine learning is applied to data of an increasingly complex nature,
DAG-based simulation frameworks are still confined to settings with relatively
simple variable types and functional forms. We here present DagSim, a
Python-based framework for DAG-based data simulation without any constraints on
variable types or functional relations. A succinct YAML format for defining the
simulation model structure promotes transparency, while separate user-provided
functions for generating each variable based on its parents ensure simulation
code modularization. We illustrate the capabilities of DagSim through use cases
where metadata variables control shapes in an image and patterns in
bio-sequences.

RL-based methods can only return a fixed length from predefined action pool
with only local agents. If there is no cooperation between these agents, some
agents often make conflicts to other agents and thus decrease the whole
throughput. This paper proposes a cooperative, multi-objective architecture
with age-decaying weights to better estimate multiple reward terms for traffic
signal control optimization, which termed COoperative Multi-Objective
Multi-Agent Deep Deterministic Policy Gradient (COMMA-DDPG). Two types of
agents running to maximize rewards of different goals - one for local traffic
optimization at each intersection and the other for global traffic waiting time
optimization. The global agent is used to guide the local agents as a means for
aiding faster learning but not used in the inference phase. We also provide an
analysis of solution existence together with convergence proof for the proposed
RL optimization. Evaluation is performed using real-world traffic data
collected using traffic cameras from an Asian country. Our method can
effectively reduce the total delayed time by 60\%. Results demonstrate its
superiority when compared to SoTA methods.

introduced in the system in real-world applications. The model needs to learn
newly added capabilities (future tasks) while retaining the old knowledge (past
tasks). Incremental learning has recently become increasingly appealing for
this problem. Task-incremental learning is a kind of incremental learning where
task identity of newly included task (a set of classes) remains known during
inference. A common goal of task-incremental methods is to design a network
that can operate on minimal size, maintaining decent performance. To manage the
stability-plasticity dilemma, different methods utilize replay memory of past
tasks, specialized hardware, regularization monitoring etc. However, these
methods are still less memory efficient in terms of architecture growth or
input data costs. In this study, we present a simple yet effective adjustment
network (SAN) for task incremental learning that achieves near state-of-the-art
performance while using minimal architectural size without using memory
instances compared to previous state-of-the-art approaches. We investigate this
approach on both 3D point cloud object (ModelNet40) and 2D image (CIFAR10,
CIFAR100, MiniImageNet, MNIST, PermutedMNIST, notMNIST, SVHN, and FashionMNIST)
recognition tasks and establish a strong baseline result for a fair comparison
with existing methods. On both 2D and 3D domains, we also observe that SAN is
primarily unaffected by different task orders in a task-incremental setting.

acquire very different strategies from humans. We show that co-training these
agents on predicting representations from natural language task descriptions
and programs induced to generate such tasks guides them toward more human-like
inductive biases. Human-generated language descriptions and program induction
models that add new learned primitives both contain abstract concepts that can
compress description length. Co-training on these representations result in
more human-like behavior in downstream meta-reinforcement learning agents than
less abstract controls (synthetic language descriptions, program induction
without learned primitives), suggesting that the abstraction supported by these
representations is key.

Reinforcement | 6 pages, 1 figure (to appear at KR 2022) | null | null | null | cs.AI | http://arxiv.org/licenses/nonexclusive-distrib/1.0/ | Causal models are playing an increasingly important role in machine learning,
particularly in the realm of explainable AI. We introduce a conceptualisation
for generating argumentation frameworks (AFs) from causal models for the
purpose of forging explanations for the models' outputs. The conceptualisation
is based on reinterpreting desirable properties of semantics of AFs as
explanation moulds, which are means for characterising the relations in the
causal model argumentatively. We demonstrate our methodology by reinterpreting
the property of bi-variate reinforcement as an explanation mould to forge
bipolar AFs as explanations for the outputs of causal models. We perform a
theoretical evaluation of these argumentative explanations, examining whether
they satisfy a range of desirable explanatory and argumentative properties.

argumentation-based methodology for forecasting informed by recent judgmental
forecasting research. FAFs comprise update frameworks which empower (human or
artificial) agents to argue over time about the probability of outcomes, e.g.
the winner of a political election or a fluctuation in inflation rates, whilst
flagging perceived irrationality in the agents' behaviour with a view to
improving their forecasting accuracy. FAFs include five argument types,
amounting to standard pro/con arguments, as in bipolar argumentation, as well
as novel proposal arguments and increase/decrease amendment arguments. We adapt
an existing gradual semantics for bipolar argumentation to determine the
aggregated dialectical strength of proposal arguments and define irrational
behaviour. We then give a simple aggregation function which produces a final
group forecast from rational agents' individual forecasts. We identify and
study properties of FAFs and conduct an empirical evaluation which signals
FAFs' potential to increase the forecasting accuracy of participants.

of planning problems. Computing general solutions with correctness guarantee
has long been a key issue in generalized planning. Abstractions are widely used
to solve generalized planning problems. Solutions of sound abstractions are
those with correctness guarantees for generalized planning problems. Recently,
Cui et al. proposed a uniform abstraction framework for generalized planning.
They gave the model-theoretic definitions of sound and complete abstractions
for generalized planning problems. In this paper, based on Cui et al.'s work,
we explore automatic verification of sound abstractions for generalized
planning. We firstly present the proof-theoretic characterization for sound
abstraction. Then, based on the characterization, we give a sufficient
condition for sound abstractions which is first-order verifiable. To implement
it, we exploit regression extensions, and develop methods to handle counting
and transitive closure. Finally, we implement a sound abstraction verification
system and report experimental results on several domains.

Multi-label Text Classification | null | null | null | null | cs.AI | http://arxiv.org/licenses/nonexclusive-distrib/1.0/ | Extreme multi-label text classification (XMTC) refers to the problem of
tagging a given text with the most relevant subset of labels from a large label
set. A majority of labels only have a few training instances due to large label
dimensionality in XMTC. To solve this data sparsity issue, most existing XMTC
methods take advantage of fixed label clusters obtained in early stage to
balance performance on tail labels and head labels. However, such label
clusters provide static and coarse-grained semantic scope for every text, which
ignores distinct characteristics of different texts and has difficulties
modelling accurate semantics scope for texts with tail labels. In this paper,
we propose a novel framework TReaderXML for XMTC, which adopts dynamic and
fine-grained semantic scope from teacher knowledge for individual text to
optimize text conditional prior category semantic ranges. TReaderXML
dynamically obtains teacher knowledge for each text by similar texts and
hierarchical label information in training sets to release the ability of
distinctly fine-grained label-oriented semantic scope. Then, TReaderXML
benefits from a novel dual cooperative network that firstly learns features of
a text and its corresponding label-oriented semantic scope by parallel Encoding
Module and Reading Module, secondly embeds two parts by Interaction Module to
regularize the text's representation by dynamic and fine-grained label-oriented
semantic scope, and finally find target labels by Prediction Module.
Experimental results on three XMTC benchmark datasets show that our method
achieves new state-of-the-art results and especially performs well for severely
imbalanced and sparse datasets.

Knowledge Engineering 2022 | null | null | null | cs.AI | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ | Computer-aided diagnosis for medical imaging is a well-studied field that
aims to provide real-time decision support systems for physicians. These
systems attempt to detect and diagnose a plethora of medical conditions across
a variety of image diagnostic technologies including ultrasound, x-ray, MRI,
and CT. When designing AI models for these systems, we are often limited by
little training data, and for rare medical conditions, positive examples are
difficult to obtain. These issues often cause models to perform poorly, so we
needed a way to design an AI model in light of these limitations. Thus, our
approach was to incorporate expert domain knowledge into the design of an AI
model. We conducted two qualitative think-aloud studies with doctors trained in
the interpretation of lung ultrasound diagnosis to extract relevant domain
knowledge for the condition Pneumothorax. We extracted knowledge of key
features and procedures used to make a diagnosis. With this knowledge, we
employed knowledge engineering concepts to make recommendations for an AI model
design to automatically diagnose Pneumothorax.

Dempster-Shafer Theory | Accepted by ICWS2022 | null | null | null | cs.AI | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0/ | The rising popularity of online social network services has attracted lots of
research on mining social media data, especially on mining social events.
Social event detection, due to its wide applications, has now become a trivial
task. State-of-the-art approaches exploiting Graph Neural Networks (GNNs)
usually follow a two-step strategy: 1) constructing text graphs based on
various views (\textit{co-user}, \textit{co-entities} and
\textit{co-hashtags}); and 2) learning a unified text representation by a
specific GNN model. Generally, the results heavily rely on the quality of the
constructed graphs and the specific message passing scheme. However, existing
methods have deficiencies in both aspects: 1) They fail to recognize the noisy
information induced by unreliable views. 2) Temporal information which works as
a vital indicator of events is neglected in most works. To this end, we propose
ETGNN, a novel Evidential Temporal-aware Graph Neural Network. Specifically, we
construct view-specific graphs whose nodes are the texts and edges are
determined by several types of shared elements respectively. To incorporate
temporal information into the message passing scheme, we introduce a novel
temporal-aware aggregator which assigns weights to neighbours according to an
adaptive time exponential decay formula. Considering the view-specific
uncertainty, the representations of all views are converted into mass functions
through evidential deep learning (EDL) neural networks, and further combined
via Dempster-Shafer theory (DST) to make the final detection. Experimental
results on three real-world datasets demonstrate the effectiveness of ETGNN in
accuracy, reliability and robustness in social event detection.

complex decision making. A promising direction for achieving this goal is
Neuro-Symbolic AI, which aims to combine the interpretability of symbolic
techniques with the ability of deep learning to learn from raw data. However,
most current approaches require manually engineered symbolic knowledge, and
where end-to-end training is considered, such approaches are either restricted
to learning definite programs, or are restricted to training binary neural
networks. In this paper, we introduce Neuro-Symbolic Inductive Learner (NSIL),
an approach that trains a general neural network to extract latent concepts
from raw data, whilst learning symbolic knowledge that maps latent concepts to
target labels. The novelty of our approach is a method for biasing the learning
of symbolic knowledge, based on the in-training performance of both neural and
symbolic components. We evaluate NSIL on three problem domains of different
complexity, including an NP-complete problem. Our results demonstrate that NSIL
learns expressive knowledge, solves computationally complex problems, and
achieves state-of-the-art performance in terms of accuracy and data efficiency.

previous published work by evaluating our dataset of 40 users using three
machine learning and deep learning algorithms. Two evaluation scenarios are
considered: binary classifiers are used for user authentication, with the top
performer being a 1-dimensional convolutional neural network with a peak
average test accuracy of 85.73% across the top 10 users. Multi class
classification is also examined using an artificial neural network which
reaches an astounding peak accuracy of 92.48% the highest accuracy we have seen

Synthesis | null | null | null | null | cs.AI | http://arxiv.org/licenses/nonexclusive-distrib/1.0/ | Despite achieving superior performance in human-level control problems,
unlike humans, deep reinforcement learning (DRL) lacks high-order intelligence
(e.g., logic deduction and reuse), thus it behaves ineffectively than humans
regarding learning and generalization in complex problems. Previous works
attempt to directly synthesize a white-box logic program as the DRL policy,
manifesting logic-driven behaviors. However, most synthesis methods are built
on imperative or declarative programming, and each has a distinct limitation,
respectively. The former ignores the cause-effect logic during synthesis,
resulting in low generalizability across tasks. The latter is strictly
proof-based, thus failing to synthesize programs with complex hierarchical
logic. In this paper, we combine the above two paradigms together and propose a
novel Generalizable Logic Synthesis (GALOIS) framework to synthesize
hierarchical and strict cause-effect logic programs. GALOIS leverages the
program sketch and defines a new sketch-based hybrid program language for
guiding the synthesis. Based on that, GALOIS proposes a sketch-based program
synthesis method to automatically generate white-box programs with
generalizable and interpretable cause-effect logic. Extensive evaluations on
various decision-making tasks with complex logic demonstrate the superiority of
GALOIS over mainstream baselines regarding the asymptotic performance,
generalizability, and great knowledge reusability across different
environments.

satisfiability (SAT) problem. Unlike existing solutions trained on random SAT
instances with relatively weak supervision, we propose applying the knowledge
of the well-developed electronic design automation (EDA) field for SAT solving.
Specifically, we first resort to logic synthesis algorithms to pre-process SAT
instances into optimized and-inverter graphs (AIGs). By doing so, the
distribution diversity among various SAT instances can be dramatically reduced,
which facilitates improving the generalization capability of the learned model.
Next, we regard the distribution of SAT solutions being a product of
conditional Bernoulli distributions. Based on this observation, we approximate
the SAT solving procedure with a conditional generative model, leveraging a
novel directed acyclic graph neural network (DAGNN) with two polarity
prototypes for conditional SAT modeling. To effectively train the generative
model, with the help of logic simulation tools, we obtain the probabilities of
nodes in the AIG being logic `1' as rich supervision. We conduct comprehensive
experiments on various SAT problems. Our results show that, DeepSAT achieves
significant accuracy improvements over state-of-the-art learning-based SAT
solutions, especially when generalized to SAT instances that are relatively
large or with diverse distributions.

great importance in many real-world applications. Existing graph neural network
based methods mainly focus on classifying unlabeled nodes within fixed classes
with abundant labeling. However, in many practical scenarios, graph evolves
with emergence of new nodes and edges. Novel classes appear incrementally along
with few labeling due to its newly emergence or lack of exploration. In this
paper, we focus on this challenging but practical graph few-shot
class-incremental learning (GFSCIL) problem and propose a novel method called
Geometer. Instead of replacing and retraining the fully connected neural
network classifer, Geometer predicts the label of a node by finding the nearest
class prototype. Prototype is a vector representing a class in the metric
space. With the pop-up of novel classes, Geometer learns and adjusts the
attention-based prototypes by observing the geometric proximity, uniformity and
separability. Teacher-student knowledge distillation and biased sampling are
further introduced to mitigate catastrophic forgetting and unbalanced labeling
problem respectively. Experimental results on four public datasets demonstrate
that Geometer achieves a substantial improvement of 9.46% to 27.60% over
state-of-the-art methods.

Satellite-HAPS-Ground Networks | arXiv admin note: substantial text overlap with arXiv:2204.13257 | null | null | null | cs.AI | http://arxiv.org/licenses/nonexclusive-distrib/1.0/ | Integrated space-air-ground networks promise to offer a valuable solution
space for empowering the sixth generation of communication networks (6G),
particularly in the context of connecting the unconnected and ultraconnecting
the connected. Such digital inclusion thrive makes resource management
problems, especially those accounting for load-balancing considerations, of
particular interest. The conventional model-based optimization methods,
however, often fail to meet the real-time processing and quality-of-service
needs, due to the high heterogeneity of the space-air-ground networks, and the
typical complexity of the classical algorithms. Given the premises of
artificial intelligence at automating wireless networks design and the
large-scale heterogeneity of non-terrestrial networks, this paper focuses on
showcasing the prospects of machine learning in the context of user scheduling
in integrated space-air-ground communications. The paper first overviews the
most relevant state-of-the art in the context of machine learning applications
to the resource allocation problems, with a dedicated attention to
space-air-ground networks. The paper then proposes, and shows the benefit of,
one specific use case that uses ensembling deep neural networks for optimizing
the user scheduling policies in integrated space-high altitude platform station
(HAPS)-ground networks. Finally, the paper sheds light on the challenges and
open issues that promise to spur the integration of machine learning in
space-air-ground networks, namely, online HAPS power adaptation, learning-based
channel sensing, data-driven multi-HAPSs resource management, and intelligent
flying taxis-empowered systems.

Benchmarking Testbed | Published in Transactions on Machine Learning Research (10/2022) | Transactions on Machine Learning Research (10/2022) | null | null | cs.AI | http://arxiv.org/licenses/nonexclusive-distrib/1.0/ | Failure detection in automated image classification is a critical safeguard
for clinical deployment. Detected failure cases can be referred to human
assessment, ensuring patient safety in computer-aided clinical decision making.
Despite its paramount importance, there is insufficient evidence about the
ability of state-of-the-art confidence scoring methods to detect test-time
failures of classification models in the context of medical imaging. This paper
provides a reality check, establishing the performance of in-domain
misclassification detection methods, benchmarking 9 widely used confidence
scores on 6 medical imaging datasets with different imaging modalities, in
multiclass and binary classification settings. Our experiments show that the
problem of failure detection is far from being solved. We found that none of
the benchmarked advanced methods proposed in the computer vision and machine
learning literature can consistently outperform a simple softmax baseline,
demonstrating that improved out-of-distribution detection or model calibration
do not necessarily translate to improved in-domain misclassification detection.
Our developed testbed facilitates future work in this important area

Regularization | null | null | null | null | cs.AI | http://arxiv.org/licenses/nonexclusive-distrib/1.0/ | Robust Markov decision processes (MDPs) provide a general framework to model
decision problems where the system dynamics are changing or only partially
known. Efficient methods for some \texttt{sa}-rectangular robust MDPs exist,
using its equivalence with reward regularized MDPs, generalizable to online
settings. In comparison to \texttt{sa}-rectangular robust MDPs,
\texttt{s}-rectangular robust MDPs are less restrictive but much more difficult
to deal with. Interestingly, recent works have established the equivalence
between \texttt{s}-rectangular robust MDPs and policy regularized MDPs. But we
don't have a clear understanding to exploit this equivalence, to do policy
improvement steps to get the optimal value function or policy. We don't have a
clear understanding of greedy/optimal policy except it can be stochastic. There
exist no methods that can naturally be generalized to model-free settings. We
show a clear and explicit equivalence between \texttt{s}-rectangular $L_p$
robust MDPs and policy regularized MDPs that resemble very much policy entropy
regularized MDPs widely used in practice. Further, we dig into the policy
improvement step and concretely derive optimal robust Bellman operators for
\texttt{s}-rectangular $L_p$ robust MDPs. We find that the greedy/optimal
policies in \texttt{s}-rectangular $L_p$ robust MDPs are threshold policies
that play top $k$ actions whose $Q$ value is greater than some threshold
(value), proportional to the $(p-1)$th power of its advantage. In addition, we
show time complexity of (\texttt{sa} and \texttt{s}-rectangular) $L_p$ robust
MDPs is the same as non-robust MDPs up to some log factors. Our work greatly
extends the existing understanding of \texttt{s}-rectangular robust MDPs and
naturally generalizable to online settings.

Nightingale | A Framework for Generating Informative Benchmark Instances | 15 pages | null | null | null | cs.AI | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ | Benchmarking is an important tool for assessing the relative performance of
alternative solving approaches. However, the utility of benchmarking is limited
by the quantity and quality of the available problem instances. Modern
constraint programming languages typically allow the specification of a
class-level model that is parameterised over instance data. This separation
presents an opportunity for automated approaches to generate instance data that
define instances that are graded (solvable at a certain difficulty level for a
solver) or can discriminate between two solving approaches. In this paper, we
introduce a framework that combines these two properties to generate a large
number of benchmark instances, purposely generated for effective and
informative benchmarking. We use five problems that were used in the MiniZinc
competition to demonstrate the usage of our framework. In addition to producing
a ranking among solvers, our framework gives a broader understanding of the
behaviour of each solver for the whole instance space; for example by finding
subsets of instances where the solver performance significantly varies from its
average performance.

Playing | 8 pages, 3 figures; Published on IEEE Conference on Games 2022 | null | null | null | cs.AI | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ | Strategy video games challenge AI agents with their combinatorial search
space caused by complex game elements. State abstraction is a popular technique
that reduces the state space complexity. However, current state abstraction
methods for games depend on domain knowledge, making their application to new
games expensive. State abstraction methods that require no domain knowledge are
studied extensively in the planning domain. However, no evidence shows they
scale well with the complexity of strategy games. In this paper, we propose
Elastic MCTS, an algorithm that uses state abstraction to play strategy games.
In Elastic MCTS, the nodes of the tree are clustered dynamically, first grouped
together progressively by state abstraction, and then separated when an
iteration threshold is reached. The elastic changes benefit from efficient
searching brought by state abstraction but avoid the negative influence of
using state abstraction for the whole search. To evaluate our method, we make
use of the general strategy games platform Stratega to generate scenarios of
varying complexity. Results show that Elastic MCTS outperforms MCTS baselines
with a large margin, while reducing the tree size by a factor of $10$. Code can
be found at: https://github.com/egg-west/Stratega

manipulation is rife. It is increasingly more important that we have the right
set of tools to defend ourselves from manipulative rhetoric, or fallacies.
Suitable techniques to automatically identify fallacies are being investigated
in natural language processing research. However, a fallacy in one context may
not be a fallacy in another context, so there is also a need to explain how and
why it has come to be judged a fallacy. For the explainable fallacy
identification, we present a novel approach to characterising fallacies through
formal constraints, as a viable alternative to more traditional fallacy
classifications by informal criteria. To achieve this objective, we introduce a
novel context-aware argumentation model, the theme aspect argumentation model,
which can do both: the modelling of a given argumentation as it is expressed
(rhetorical modelling); and a deeper semantic analysis of the rhetorical
argumentation model. By identifying fallacies with formal constraints, it
becomes possible to tell whether a fallacy lurks in the modelled rhetoric with
a formal rigour. We present core formal constraints for the theme aspect
argumentation model and then more formal constraints that improve its fallacy
identification capability. We show and prove the consequences of these formal
constraints. We then analyse the computational complexities of deciding the
satisfiability of the constraints.

been very useful sources for comparing performance of different solving
approaches and for advancing the state-of-the-arts of the fields. Traditional
competition setting often focuses on producing a ranking between solvers based
on their average performance across a wide range of benchmark problems and
instances. While this is a sensible way to assess the relative performance of
solvers, such ranking does not necessarily reflect the full potential of a
solver, especially when we want to utilise a portfolio of solvers instead of a
single one for solving a new problem. In this paper, I will describe a
portfolio-based analysis method which can give complementary insights into the
performance of participating solvers in a competition. The method is
demonstrated on the results of the MiniZinc Challenges and new insights gained
from the portfolio viewpoint are presented.

that is discussed and unsolved for a long period. In the research of narrow AI,
this seems not a severe problem, since researchers in that field focus on some
specific problems as well as one or some aspects of cognition, and the criteria
for evaluation are explicitly defined. By contrast, an AGI agent should solve
problems that are never-encountered by both agents and developers. However,
once a developer tests and debugs the agent with a problem, the
never-encountered problem becomes the encountered problem, as a result, the
problem is solved by the developers to some extent, exploiting their
experience, rather than the agents. This conflict, as we call the trap of
developers' experience, leads to that this kind of problems is probably hard to
become an acknowledged criterion. In this paper, we propose an evaluation
method named Artificial Open World, aiming to jump out of the trap. The
intuition is that most of the experience in the actual world should not be
necessary to be applied to the artificial world, and the world should be open
in some sense, such that developers are unable to perceive the world and solve
problems by themselves before testing, though after that they are allowed to
check all the data. The world is generated in a similar way as the actual
world, and a general form of problems is proposed. A metric is proposed aiming
to quantify the progress of research. This paper describes the conceptual
design of the Artificial Open World, though the formalization and the
implementation are left to the future.

introduced. The classifier is based on the previously introduced concept of the
granular approximation and its multi-class classification case. The classifier
is instance-based and its biggest advantage is its local transparency i.e., the
ability to explain every individual prediction it makes. We first develop the
FGAC for the binary classification case and the multi-class classification case
and we discuss its variation that includes the Ordered Weighted Average (OWA)
operators. Those variations of the FGAC are then empirically compared with
other locally transparent ML methods. At the end, we discuss the transparency
of the FGAC and its advantage over other locally transparent methods. We
conclude that while the FGAC has similar predictive performance to other
locally transparent ML models, its transparency can be superior in certain
cases.

Bailon-Ruiz | HDDL 2.1: Towards Defining an HTN Formalism with Time | null | null | null | null | cs.AI | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/ | Real world applications of planning, like in industry and robotics, require
modelling rich and diverse scenarios. Their resolution usually requires
coordinated and concurrent action executions. In several cases, such planning
problems are naturally decomposed in a hierarchical way and expressed by a
Hierarchical Task Network (HTN) formalism. The PDDL language used to specify
planning domains has evolved to cover the different planning paradigms.
However, formulating real and complex scenarios where numerical and temporal
constraints concur in defining a solution is still a challenge. Our proposition
aims at filling the gap between existing planning languages and operational
needs. To do so, we propose to extend HDDL taking inspiration from PDDL 2.1 and
ANML to express temporal and numerical expressions. This paper opens
discussions on the semantics and the syntax needed to extend HDDL, and
illustrate these needs with the modelling of an Earth Observing Satellite
planning problem.

ordered set of partitions of the Bayesian network and the corresponding
max-calibrated clique trees. We show that the maximum belief in the last
partition gives an estimate of the probability of the MPE assignment. We
propose an iterative algorithm for decoding, in which the subset of variables
for which an assignment is obtained is guaranteed to increase in every
iteration. There are no issues of convergence, and we do not perform a search
for solutions. Even though it is a single shot algorithm, we obtain valid
assignments in 100 out of the 117 benchmarks used for testing. The accuracy of
our solution is comparable to a branch and bound search in majority of the
benchmarks, with competitive run times.

intelligence. Geometric pattern recognition is used in many intelligence tests,
including Dehaene's odd-one-out test of Core Geometry (CG)) based on intuitive
geometrical concepts (Dehaene et al., 2006). Earlier work has developed a
symmetry-based cognitive model of Dehaene's test and demonstrated performance
comparable to that of humans. In this work, we further investigate the role of
symmetry in geometrical intuition and build a cognitive model for the
2-Alternative Forced Choice (2-AFC) variation of the CG test (Marupudi & Varma
2021). In contrast to Dehaene's test, 2-AFC leaves almost no space for
cognitive models based on generalization over multiple examples. Our
symmetry-based model achieves an accuracy comparable to the human average on
the 2-AFC test and appears to capture an essential part of intuitive geometry.

Representation and Reasoning, KR 2022 | null | null | null | cs.AI | http://arxiv.org/licenses/nonexclusive-distrib/1.0/ | Existential rules are an expressive knowledge representation language mainly
developed to query data. In the literature, they are often supposed to be in
some normal form that simplifies technical developments. For instance, a common
assumption is that rule heads are atomic, i.e., restricted to a single atom.
Such assumptions are considered to be made without loss of generality as long
as all sets of rules can be normalised while preserving entailment. However, an
important question is whether the properties that ensure the decidability of
reasoning are preserved as well. We provide a systematic study of the impact of
these procedures on the different chase variants with respect to chase
(non-)termination and FO-rewritability. This also leads us to study open
problems related to chase termination of independent interest.

planning research. A key part is the representation of action models. Decades
of advances improving declarative action model representations resulted in
numerous theoretical advances, and capable, working, domain-independent
planners. However, despite the maturity of the field, AI planning technology is
still rarely used outside the research community, suggesting that current
representations fail to capture real-world requirements, such as utilizing
complex mathematical functions and models learned from data. We argue that this
is because the modeling process is assumed to have taken place and completed
prior to the planning process, i.e., offline modeling for offline planning.
There are several challenges inherent to this approach, including: limited
expressiveness of declarative modeling languages; early commitment to modeling
choices and computation, that preclude using the most appropriate resolution
for each action model -- which can only be known during planning; and
difficulty in reliably using non-declarative, learned, models.
We therefore suggest to change the AI planning process, such that is carries
out online modeling in offline planning, i.e., the use of action models that
are computed or even generated as part of the planning process, as they are
accessed. This generalizes the existing approach (offline modeling). The
proposed definition admits novel planning processes, and we suggest one
concrete implementation, demonstrating the approach. We sketch initial results
that were obtained as part of a first attempt to follow this approach by
planning with action cost estimators. We conclude by discussing open
challenges.

occupational fraud. Since most medium-sized and large companies employ
Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) systems to track vast amounts of information
regarding their business process, researchers have in the past shown interest
in automatically detecting fraud through ERP system data. Current research in
this area, however, is hindered by the fact that ERP system data is not
publicly available for the development and comparison of fraud detection
methods. We therefore endeavour to generate public ERP system data that
includes both normal business operation and fraud. We propose a strategy for
generating ERP system data through a serious game, model a variety of fraud
scenarios in cooperation with auditing experts, and generate data from a
simulated make-to-stock production company with multiple research participants.
We aggregate the generated data into ready to used datasets for fraud detection
in ERP systems, and supply both the raw and aggregated data to the general
public to allow for open development and comparison of fraud detection
approaches on ERP system data.

How can
the most common 1,000 concepts (89\% of everyday use) be learnt in a
naturalistic children's setting? Cognitive development in children is about
quality, and new concepts can be conveyed via simple examples. Our approach of
knowledge scaffolding uses simple objects and actions to convey concepts, like
how children are taught. We introduce ABCDE, an interactive 3D environment
modeled after a typical playroom for children. It comes with 300+ unique 3D
object assets (mostly toys), and a large action space for child and parent
agents to interact with objects and each other. ABCDE is the first environment
aimed at mimicking a naturalistic setting for cognitive development in
children; no other environment focuses on high-level concept learning through
learner-teacher interactions. The simulator can be found at

Cognitive, Causal, and Grounded Approach, and a Step Toward AGI | 66 pages, 49 figures | null | null | null | cs.AI | http://arxiv.org/licenses/nonexclusive-distrib/1.0/ | In AI research, so far, the attention paid to the characterization and
representation of function and affordance has been sporadic and sparse, even
though this aspect features prominently in an intelligent system's functioning.
In the sporadic and sparse, though commendable efforts so far devoted to the
characterization and understanding of function and affordance, there has also
been no general framework that could unify all the different use domains and
situations related to the representation and application of functional
concepts. This paper develops just such a general framework, with an approach
that emphasizes the fact that the representations involved must be explicitly
cognitive and conceptual, and they must also contain causal characterizations
of the events and processes involved, as well as employ conceptual constructs
that are grounded in the referents to which they refer, in order to achieve
maximal generality. The basic general framework is described, along with a set
of basic guiding principles with regards to the representation of
functionality. To properly and adequately characterize and represent
functionality, a descriptive representation language is needed. This language
is defined and developed, and many examples of its use are described. The
general framework is developed based on an extension of the general language
meaning representational framework called conceptual dependency. To support the
general characterization and representation of functionality, the basic
conceptual dependency framework is enhanced with representational devices
called structure anchor and conceptual dependency elaboration, together with
the definition of a set of ground level concepts. These novel representational
constructs are defined, developed, and described. A general framework dealing
with functionality would represent a major step toward achieving Artificial
General Intelligence.

diagnosed early. While most countries have large-scale screening programs,
there is no consensus on a single globally accepted guideline for breast cancer
screening. The complex nature of the disease; the limited availability of
screening methods such as mammography, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and
ultrasound; and public health policies all factor into the development of
screening policies. Resource availability concerns necessitate the design of
policies which conform to a budget, a problem which can be modelled as a
constrained partially observable Markov decision process (CPOMDP). In this
study, we propose a multi-objective CPOMDP model for breast cancer screening
which allows for supplemental screening methods to accompany mammography. The
model has two objectives: maximize the quality-adjusted life years (QALYs) and
minimize lifetime breast cancer mortality risk (LBCMR). We identify the Pareto
frontier of optimal solutions for average and high-risk patients at different
budget levels, which can be used by decision-makers to set policies in
practice. We find that the policies obtained by using a weighted objective are
able to generate well-balanced QALYs and LBCMR values. In contrast, the
single-objective models generally sacrifice a substantial amount in terms of
QALYs/LBCMR for a minimal gain in LBCMR/QALYs. Additionally, our results show
that, with the baseline cost values for supplemental screenings as well as the
additional disutility that they incur, they are rarely recommended in CPOMDP
policies, especially in a budget-constrained setting. A sensitivity analysis
reveals the thresholds on cost and disutility values at which supplemental
screenings become advantageous to prescribe.

patients in the healthcare process and products in the manufacturing process. A
business process of an organization is executed in various contextual
situations, e.g., a COVID-19 pandemic in the case of hospitals and a lack of
semiconductor chip shortage in the case of automobile companies. Thus,
context-aware deviation detection is essential to provide relevant insights.
However, existing work 1) does not provide a systematic way of incorporating
various contexts, 2) is tailored to a specific approach without using an
extensive pool of existing deviation detection techniques, and 3) does not
distinguish positive and negative contexts that justify and refute deviation,
respectively. In this work, we provide a framework to bridge the aforementioned
gaps. We have implemented the proposed framework as a web service that can be
extended to various contexts and deviation detection methods. We have evaluated
the effectiveness of the proposed framework by conducting experiments using 255
different contextual scenarios.

Constraints | 9 pages, 1 figure, 1 table Comments: corrected typo in author list | null | null | null | cs.AI | http://arxiv.org/licenses/nonexclusive-distrib/1.0/ | Deep learning is typically performed by learning a neural network solely from
data in the form of input-output pairs ignoring available domain knowledge. In
this work, the Constraint Guided Gradient Descent (CGGD) framework is proposed
that enables the injection of domain knowledge into the training procedure. The
domain knowledge is assumed to be described as a conjunction of hard inequality
constraints which appears to be a natural choice for several applications.
Compared to other neuro-symbolic approaches, the proposed method converges to a
model that satisfies any inequality constraint on the training data and does
not require to first transform the constraints into some ad-hoc term that is
added to the learning (optimisation) objective. Under certain conditions, it is
shown that CGGD can converges to a model that satisfies the constraints on the
training set, while prior work does not necessarily converge to such a model.
It is empirically shown on two independent and small data sets that CGGD makes
training less dependent on the initialisation of the network and improves the
constraint satisfiability on all data.

2206.06440 | Yuliya Lierler | Yuliya Lierler | An Abstract View on Optimizations in Propositional Frameworks | null | null | null | null | cs.AI | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ | Search-optimization problems are plentiful in scientific and engineering
domains. Artificial intelligence has long contributed to the development of
search algorithms and declarative programming languages geared toward solving
and modeling search-optimization problems. Automated reasoning and knowledge
representation are the subfields of AI that are particularly vested in these
developments. Many popular automated reasoning paradigms provide users with
languages supporting optimization statements: answer set programming or MaxSAT
on minone, to name a few. These paradigms vary significantly in their languages
and in the ways they express quality conditions on computed solutions. Here we
propose a unifying framework of so-called weight systems that eliminates
syntactic distinctions between paradigms and allows us to see essential
similarities and differences between optimization statements provided by
paradigms. This unifying outlook has significant simplifying and explanatory
potential in the studies of optimization and modularity in automated reasoning
and knowledge representation. It also supplies researchers with a convenient
tool for proving the formal properties of distinct frameworks; bridging these
frameworks; and facilitating the development of translational solvers.

Paredes, Tathagata Chakraborti, Christian Muise | MACQ: A Holistic View of Model Acquisition Techniques | 8 pages, 7 figures, KEPS Workshop Submission | null | null | null | cs.AI | http://arxiv.org/licenses/nonexclusive-distrib/1.0/ | For over three decades, the planning community has explored countless methods
for data-driven model acquisition. These range in sophistication (e.g., simple
set operations to full-blown reformulations), methodology (e.g., logic-based
vs. planing-based), and assumptions (e.g., fully vs. partially observable).
With no fewer than 43 publications in the space, it can be overwhelming to
understand what approach could or should be applied in a new setting. We
present a holistic characterization of the action model acquisition space and
further introduce a unifying framework for automated action model acquisition.
We have re-implemented some of the landmark approaches in the area, and our
characterization of all the techniques offers deep insight into the research
opportunities that remain; i.e., those settings where no technique is capable
of solving.

2206.06618 | Harshad Khadilkar | Harshad Khadilkar | Solving the capacitated vehicle routing problem with timing windows
using rollouts and MAX-SAT | 6 pages, 2 figures | null | null | null | cs.AI | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/ | The vehicle routing problem is a well known class of NP-hard combinatorial
optimisation problems in literature. Traditional solution methods involve
either carefully designed heuristics, or time-consuming metaheuristics. Recent
work in reinforcement learning has been a promising alternative approach, but
has found it difficult to compete with traditional methods in terms of solution
quality. This paper proposes a hybrid approach that combines reinforcement
learning, policy rollouts, and a satisfiability solver to enable a tunable
tradeoff between computation times and solution quality. Results on a popular
public data set show that the algorithm is able to produce solutions closer to
optimal levels than existing learning based approaches, and with shorter
computation times than meta-heuristics. The approach requires minimal design
effort and is able to solve unseen problems of arbitrary scale without
additional training. Furthermore, the methodology is generalisable to other
combinatorial optimisation problems.
