DropKey
In this paper, we focus on analyzing and improving the dropout technique for
self-attention layers of Vision Transformer, which is important while
surprisingly ignored by prior works. In particular, we conduct researches on
three core questions: First, what to drop in self-attention layers? Different
from dropping attention weights in literature, we propose to move dropout
operations forward ahead of attention matrix calculation and set the Key as the
dropout unit, yielding a novel dropout-before-softmax scheme. We theoretically
verify that this scheme helps keep both regularization and probability features
of attention weights, alleviating the overfittings problem to specific patterns
and enhancing the model to globally capture vital information; Second, how to
schedule the drop ratio in consecutive layers? In contrast to exploit a
constant drop ratio for all layers, we present a new decreasing schedule that
gradually decreases the drop ratio along the stack of self-attention layers. We
experimentally validate the proposed schedule can avoid overfittings in
low-level features and missing in high-level semantics, thus improving the
robustness and stableness of model training; Third, whether need to perform
structured dropout operation as CNN? We attempt patch-based block-version of
dropout operation and find that this useful trick for CNN is not essential for
ViT. Given exploration on the above three questions, we present the novel
DropKey method that regards Key as the drop unit and exploits decreasing
schedule for drop ratio, improving ViTs in a general way. Comprehensive
experiments demonstrate the effectiveness of DropKey for various ViT
architectures, e.g. T2T and VOLO, as well as for various vision tasks, e.g.,
image classification, object detection, human-object interaction detection and
human body shape recovery.Comment: Accepted by CVPR202
Two polymeric 36-metal pure lanthanide nanosize clusters
973 Program [2011CBA00507, 2011CB932504]; National Natural Science Foundation of China [21131006]; Natural Science Foundation of Fujian ProvinceTwo rarely seen 2D coordination polymers based on huge 36-metal pure lanthanide clusters, {[Gd-36(NA)(36)(OH)(49)(O)(6)(NO3)(6)(N-3)(3)(H2O)(20)]Cl-2 center dot 28H(2)O}(n) (1) and {[Dy-36(NA)(36)(OH)(49)(O)(6)(NO3)(6)(N-3)(3-)(H2O)(20)]Cl-2 center dot 28H(2)O}(n) (2) (HNA = nicotinic acid), were synthesized and structurally characterized. The spherical Ln(36) skeleton can be viewed as the aggregation of one cyclohexane chair-like Ln(24) wheel and two identical tripod-like Ln(6) units. The coordination of the carboxylic groups of the NA ligands with the Ln(III) cations results in a square layer. Additionally, compound 1 possesses a large MCE of 39.66 J kg(-1) K-1 and compound 2 exhibits slow relaxation of the magnetization
Non-Magnetic Circulator Based on a Time-Varying Phase Modulator
Non-reciprocal devices are key elements in modern wireless communication systems. The circulator devices can simultaneously save spectrum resources and antennas. A traditional circulator is made of ferrite materials with an external magnetic bias field, and its bulk and incompatibility with CMOS technology can hardly satisfy the miniaturization and integration of modern high-speed communication systems. In recent years, there have been many outstanding achievements in the study of non-magnetic circulators, among which, the method of producing non-reciprocity by temporal modulation is considered the most likely to have a transformative influence on the industry. By varying one of the parameters of the system with time, the time inversion symmetry of the system can be broken so that the non-reciprocal devices can be formed by applying appropriate topological structures without the use of magnetic materials. In the paper, a new concept of a time-varying phase modulator (TVPM) is proposed to achieve a relatively simple method to break the symmetry of time inversion. Two different time-varying phase modulators and buffering units can be integrated to form a gyrator, with which a circulator can be formed. This paper provides a relatively simple design idea and shows the circuit design and implementation method as well as the numerical analysis and simulation results. The simulation results show that the insertion loss of the circulator at the center frequency is −1.7 dB and the isolation is −18 dB. The proposed non-magnetic circulator shows potential applicability in related 5G and pre-6G systems
Data-cell-variation-tolerant triple sampling non-destructive self-reference sensing scheme of STT-MRAM
Inevitable process variations (PVT) brought by both the magnetic tunneling junction (MTJ) and MOSFET based on the complementary metal-oxide semiconductor (CMOS) technology become a major obstacle for the mass production of spin transfer torque magnetic random access memory (STT-MRAM). The detriment of the process variations leads to a serious degradation in the fundamental yield with the shrinkage of the technology nodes. However, the conventional data-cell-variation-tolerant (DCVT) sense scheme cannot get the target read yield due to the limited sense margin (SM). To resolve this problem, a DCVT triple sampling non-destructive self-reference sensing scheme (TSNS) is proposed in the paper, which doubles the SM, with lower power consumption and better SM compared with the conventional DCVT sense scheme. Monte Carlo simulation with industry-compatible 65-nm model parameters results show that the proposed sensing scheme shows over 2.5 times higher SM and less power consumption compared to the previous self-reference circuit. The proposed sensing scheme can get the target read yield with lower power consumption

A multi-scale classification method for rocky desertification mapping in the red-bed area of northwestern, Jiangxi, China
Currently, the monitoring of rocky desertification(RD) is concentrated in the karst area, whereas the study in red-bed areas is rare. In this paper, we present a multi-scale classification framework for RD monitoring based on spectral-spatial features. At the pixel scale, we explored several spectral indices based on spectral statistics and separability analysis of land cover samples. The homogeneous land covers were classified by the decision rules from the selected spectral indices (such as NDIOI, NRRI and NDGI); At the patch scale, RD classes were further distinguished by spatial decision rules based on multiple neighborhood features including proximity, linear density, and buffer distance. The method was applied on an OLI image over the red-bed area of northwestern Jiangxi, south central China, and validated using ground-based observations. The experimental results of verification and comparison are satisfactory. This work demonstrates a methodological supplement to the monitoring of red bed RD
