    Speech service network hoping to provide a continuous data transfer procedure is astable data streaming (Streaming). The main requirement in the Voice over IPtechnology is a good quality of transmitted signal between calling subscribers. Waysto diagnose voice quality issues has become important in your network. perfSONARhas been proposed as a successor to various traditional measurement tools. It isunprecedented ability to integrate measurement tools, data archives and visualizationtools as web services provides a fully flexible and easy extensible solution to networkmeasurement. In this paper, we develop a voice quality measurement in perfSONAR(ps-VQM). Combine the advantage of perfSONAR network effect supervision,availably supervise and control network effect, provide a high-quality network, justcan develop the biggest advantage of network

    When Causal Intervention Meets Adversarial Examples and Image Masking for Deep Neural Networks

    Discovering and exploiting the causality in deep neural networks (DNNs) are crucial challenges for understanding and reasoning causal effects (CE) on an explainable visual model. "Intervention" has been widely used for recognizing a causal relation ontologically. In this paper, we propose a causal inference framework for visual reasoning via do-calculus. To study the intervention effects on pixel-level features for causal reasoning, we introduce pixel-wise masking and adversarial perturbation. In our framework, CE is calculated using features in a latent space and perturbed prediction from a DNN-based model. We further provide the first look into the characteristics of discovered CE of adversarially perturbed images generated by gradient-based methods \footnote{~~https://github.com/jjaacckkyy63/Causal-Intervention-AE-wAdvImg}. Experimental results show that CE is a competitive and robust index for understanding DNNs when compared with conventional methods such as class-activation mappings (CAMs) on the Chest X-Ray-14 dataset for human-interpretable feature(s) (e.g., symptom) reasoning. Moreover, CE holds promises for detecting adversarial examples as it possesses distinct characteristics in the presence of adversarial perturbations.Comment: Noted our camera-ready version has changed the title.

    Predicting Transition Temperature of Superconductors with Graph Neural Networks

    Full text link
    Predicting high temperature superconductors has long been a great challenge. The difficulty lies in how to predict the transition temperature (Tc) of superconductors. Although recent progress in material informatics has led to a number of machine learning models predicting Tc, prevailing models have not shown adequate generalization ability and physical rationality to find new high temperature superconductors, yet. In this work, a bond sensitive graph neural network (BSGNN) was developed to predict the Tc of various superconductors. In BSGNN, communicative message passing and graph attention methods were utilized to enhance the model's ability to process bonding and interaction information in the crystal lattice, which is crucial for the superconductivity. Consequently, our results revealed the relevance between chemical bond attributes and Tc. It indicates that shorter bond length is favored by high Tc. Meanwhile, some specific chemical elements that have relatively large van der Waals radius is favored by high Tc. It gives a convenient guidance for searching high temperature superconductors in materials database, by ruling out the materials that could never have high Tc
