Multifidelity Modeling for Physics-Informed Neural Networks (PINNs)
Multifidelity simulation methodologies are often used in an attempt to
judiciously combine low-fidelity and high-fidelity simulation results in an
accuracy-increasing, cost-saving way. Candidates for this approach are
simulation methodologies for which there are fidelity differences connected
with significant computational cost differences. Physics-informed Neural
Networks (PINNs) are candidates for these types of approaches due to the
significant difference in training times required when different fidelities
(expressed in terms of architecture width and depth as well as optimization
criteria) are employed. In this paper, we propose a particular multifidelity
approach applied to PINNs that exploits low-rank structure. We demonstrate that
width, depth, and optimization criteria can be used as parameters related to
model fidelity, and show numerical justification of cost differences in
training due to fidelity parameter choices. We test our multifidelity scheme on
various canonical forward PDE models that have been presented in the emerging
PINNs literature
Data compression techniques applied to high resolution high frame rate video technology
An investigation is presented of video data compression applied to microgravity space experiments using High Resolution High Frame Rate Video Technology (HHVT). An extensive survey of methods of video data compression, described in the open literature, was conducted. The survey examines compression methods employing digital computing. The results of the survey are presented. They include a description of each method and assessment of image degradation and video data parameters. An assessment is made of present and near term future technology for implementation of video data compression in high speed imaging system. Results of the assessment are discussed and summarized. The results of a study of a baseline HHVT video system, and approaches for implementation of video data compression, are presented. Case studies of three microgravity experiments are presented and specific compression techniques and implementations are recommended

Finding Non-Uniform Quantization Schemes using Multi-Task Gaussian Processes
We propose a novel method for neural network quantization that casts the
neural architecture search problem as one of hyperparameter search to find
non-uniform bit distributions throughout the layers of a CNN. We perform the
search assuming a Multi-Task Gaussian Processes prior, which splits the problem
to multiple tasks, each corresponding to different number of training epochs,
and explore the space by sampling those configurations that yield maximum
information. We then show that with significantly lower precision in the last
layers we achieve a minimal loss of accuracy with appreciable memory savings.
We test our findings on the CIFAR10 and ImageNet datasets using the VGG, ResNet
and GoogLeNet architectures.Comment: Accepted for publication at ECCV 2020. Code availiable at

A Novel Rate Control Algorithm for Onboard Predictive Coding of Multispectral and Hyperspectral Images
Predictive coding is attractive for compression onboard of spacecrafts thanks
to its low computational complexity, modest memory requirements and the ability
to accurately control quality on a pixel-by-pixel basis. Traditionally,
predictive compression focused on the lossless and near-lossless modes of
operation where the maximum error can be bounded but the rate of the compressed
image is variable. Rate control is considered a challenging problem for
predictive encoders due to the dependencies between quantization and prediction
in the feedback loop, and the lack of a signal representation that packs the
signal's energy into few coefficients. In this paper, we show that it is
possible to design a rate control scheme intended for onboard implementation.
In particular, we propose a general framework to select quantizers in each
spatial and spectral region of an image so as to achieve the desired target
rate while minimizing distortion. The rate control algorithm allows to achieve
lossy, near-lossless compression, and any in-between type of compression, e.g.,
lossy compression with a near-lossless constraint. While this framework is
independent of the specific predictor used, in order to show its performance,
in this paper we tailor it to the predictor adopted by the CCSDS-123 lossless
compression standard, obtaining an extension that allows to perform lossless,
near-lossless and lossy compression in a single package. We show that the rate
controller has excellent performance in terms of accuracy in the output rate,
rate-distortion characteristics and is extremely competitive with respect to
state-of-the-art transform coding
Data compression in remote sensing applications
A survey of current data compression techniques which are being used to reduce the amount of data in remote sensing applications is provided. The survey aspect is far from complete, reflecting the substantial activity in this area. The purpose of the survey is more to exemplify the different approaches being taken rather than to provide an exhaustive list of the various proposed approaches
Seminario sullo Standard MPEG-4: utilizzo ed aspetti implementativi
Una delle tecnologie chiave che hanno permesso il grande sviluppo della televisione digitale è la compressione video. La tecnologia di codifica video nota come MPEG-2, sviluppata nei primi anni novanta, è diventata lo standard di trasmissione DTV (Digital TV) sia satellitare sia terrestre in quasi tutti i paesi del mondo. Da allora la velocità dei microprocessori e le capacità di memoria dei dispositivi hardware per la codifica e la decodifica sono migliorate significativamente rendendo possibile lo sviluppo e
l’implementazione di algoritmi di codifica innovativi in grado di abbattere significativamente i limiti di compressione dello standard MPEG-2. Tali innovazioni, sfociate nel 2003 nello standard MPEG-4 AVC (Advanced Video Coding), non hanno permesso di mantenere la compatibilità all’indietro con l’MPEG-2, e questo ha inizialmente costituito un limite alla loro introduzione nei sistemi di trasmissione DTV. Tuttavia, negli ultimi anni la codifica MPEG-4 AVC si è diffusa rapidamente, è stata adottata dal progetto DVB, recentemente dall’ATSC, ed è lo standard di codifica nell’IPTV.
L’obiettivo di questo seminario, che si articola in due giornate, è quello di presentare lo standard di codifica MPEG-4 AVC con particolare attenzione agli aspetti implementativi del livello di codifica video.2008-11-18Sardegna Ricerche, Edificio 2, Località Piscinamanna 09010 Pula (CA) - ItaliaSeminario sullo Standard MPEG-4: utilizzo ed aspetti implementativ
