Quantum Federated Learning With Quantum Networks
A major concern of deep learning models is the large amount of data that is
required to build and train them, much of which is reliant on sensitive and
personally identifiable information that is vulnerable to access by third
parties. Ideas of using the quantum internet to address this issue have been
previously proposed, which would enable fast and completely secure online
communications. Previous work has yielded a hybrid quantum-classical transfer
learning scheme for classical data and communication with a hub-spoke topology.
While quantum communication is secure from eavesdrop attacks and no
measurements from quantum to classical translation, due to no cloning theorem,
hub-spoke topology is not ideal for quantum communication without quantum
memory. Here we seek to improve this model by implementing a decentralized ring
topology for the federated learning scheme, where each client is given a
portion of the entire dataset and only performs training on that set. We also
demonstrate the first successful use of quantum weights for quantum federated
learning, which allows us to perform our training entirely in quantum
Interpretations of Domain Adaptations via Layer Variational Analysis
Transfer learning is known to perform efficiently in many applications
empirically, yet limited literature reports the mechanism behind the scene.
This study establishes both formal derivations and heuristic analysis to
formulate the theory of transfer learning in deep learning. Our framework
utilizing layer variational analysis proves that the success of transfer
learning can be guaranteed with corresponding data conditions. Moreover, our
theoretical calculation yields intuitive interpretations towards the knowledge
transfer process. Subsequently, an alternative method for network-based
transfer learning is derived. The method shows an increase in efficiency and
accuracy for domain adaptation. It is particularly advantageous when new domain
data is sufficiently sparse during adaptation. Numerical experiments over
diverse tasks validated our theory and verified that our analytic expression
achieved better performance in domain adaptation than the gradient descent
method.Comment: Published at ICLR 202
INSURE: An Information Theory Inspired Disentanglement and Purification Model for Domain Generalization
Domain Generalization (DG) aims to learn a generalizable model on the unseen
target domain by only training on the multiple observed source domains.
Although a variety of DG methods have focused on extracting domain-invariant
features, the domain-specific class-relevant features have attracted attention
and been argued to benefit generalization to the unseen target domain. To take
into account the class-relevant domain-specific information, in this paper we
propose an Information theory iNspired diSentanglement and pURification modEl
(INSURE) to explicitly disentangle the latent features to obtain sufficient and
compact (necessary) class-relevant feature for generalization to the unseen
domain. Specifically, we first propose an information theory inspired loss
function to ensure the disentangled class-relevant features contain sufficient
class label information and the other disentangled auxiliary feature has
sufficient domain information. We further propose a paired purification loss
function to let the auxiliary feature discard all the class-relevant
information and thus the class-relevant feature will contain sufficient and
compact (necessary) class-relevant information. Moreover, instead of using
multiple encoders, we propose to use a learnable binary mask as our
disentangler to make the disentanglement more efficient and make the
disentangled features complementary to each other. We conduct extensive
experiments on four widely used DG benchmark datasets including PACS,
OfficeHome, TerraIncognita, and DomainNet. The proposed INSURE outperforms the
state-of-art methods. We also empirically show that domain-specific
class-relevant features are beneficial for domain generalization.Comment: 10 pages, 4 figure
Review on the Conflicts between Offshore Wind Power and Fishery Rights: Marine Spatial Planning in Taiwan
In recent years, Taiwan has firmly committed itself to pursue the green energy transition and a nuclear-free homeland by 2025, with an increase in renewable energy from 5% in 2016 to 20% in 2025. Offshore wind power (OWP) has become a sustainable and scalable renewable energy source in Taiwan. Maritime Spatial Planning (MSP) is a fundamental tool to organize the use of the ocean space by different and often conflicting multi-users within ecologically sustainable boundaries in the marine environment. MSP is capable of definitively driving the use of offshore renewable energy. Lessons from Germany and the UK revealed that MSP was crucial to the development of OWP. This paper aims to evaluate how MSP is able to accommodate the exploitation of OWP in Taiwan and contribute to the achievement of marine policy by proposing a set of recommendations. It concludes that MSP is emerging as a solution to be considered by government institutions to optimize the multiple use of the ocean space, reduce conflicts and make use of the environmental and economic synergies generated by the joint deployment of OWP facilities and fishing or aquaculture activities for the conservation and protection of marine environments.Peer Reviewe
