Backdoor Attack on Hash-based Image Retrieval via Clean-label Data Poisoning
A backdoored deep hashing model is expected to behave normally on original
query images and return the images with the target label when a specific
trigger pattern presents. To this end, we propose the confusing
perturbations-induced backdoor attack (CIBA). It injects a small number of
poisoned images with the correct label into the training data, which makes the
attack hard to be detected. To craft the poisoned images, we first propose the
confusing perturbations to disturb the hashing code learning. As such, the
hashing model can learn more about the trigger. The confusing perturbations are
imperceptible and generated by optimizing the intra-class dispersion and
inter-class shift in the Hamming space. We then employ the targeted adversarial
patch as the backdoor trigger to improve the attack performance. We have
conducted extensive experiments to verify the effectiveness of our proposed
CIBA. Our code is available at https://github.com/KuofengGao/CIBA.Comment: Accepted by BMVC 202
The direct observation of ferromagnetic domain of single crystal CrSiTe3
Layered van der Waals interacting system that can be exfoliated to few layers are promising for exploring fundamental physics with rich electronic and optical properties. Combining the emerging phenomenon with long-range magnetic orders could lead to novel potential ultra-compact spintronics. Recently, CrXTe3 (X= Ge, Si) were reported that can persist magnetism after being exfoliated to few layers, however the magnetic domain structure in layered or bulk single crystal has remained unexplored. Here we choose CrSiTe3 single crystal as a model system, combining low-temperature magnetic force microscope, to demonstrate the magnetic domain structure, as well as the domain evolution in the presence of magnetic field, which is consistent with the magnetic behaviors measured by Magnetic Properties Measurement System (MPMS). Our result gives a simple portray of the magnetic properties of single crystal CrSiTe3, which provides a basis for the future research on magnetic layered van der Waals interacting system in potential application at 2-dimensional limit
HeteroNet: Heterophily-aware Representation Learning on Heterogenerous Graphs
Real-world graphs are typically complex, exhibiting heterogeneity in the
global structure, as well as strong heterophily within local neighborhoods.
While a growing body of literature has revealed the limitations of common graph
neural networks (GNNs) in handling homogeneous graphs with heterophily, little
work has been conducted on investigating the heterophily properties in the
context of heterogeneous graphs. To bridge this research gap, we identify the
heterophily in heterogeneous graphs using metapaths and propose two practical
metrics to quantitatively describe the levels of heterophily. Through in-depth
investigations on several real-world heterogeneous graphs exhibiting varying
levels of heterophily, we have observed that heterogeneous graph neural
networks (HGNNs), which inherit many mechanisms from GNNs designed for
homogeneous graphs, fail to generalize to heterogeneous graphs with heterophily
or low level of homophily. To address the challenge, we present HeteroNet,
a heterophily-aware HGNN that incorporates both masked metapath prediction and
masked label prediction tasks to effectively and flexibly handle both
homophilic and heterophilic heterogeneous graphs. We evaluate the performance
of HeteroNet on five real-world heterogeneous graph benchmarks with varying
levels of heterophily. The results demonstrate that HeteroNet outperforms
strong baselines in the semi-supervised node classification task, providing
valuable insights into effectively handling more complex heterogeneous graphs.Comment: Preprin
LasTGL: An Industrial Framework for Large-Scale Temporal Graph Learning
Over the past few years, graph neural networks (GNNs) have become powerful
and practical tools for learning on (static) graph-structure data. However,
many real-world applications, such as social networks and e-commerce, involve
temporal graphs where nodes and edges are dynamically evolving. Temporal graph
neural networks (TGNNs) have progressively emerged as an extension of GNNs to
address time-evolving graphs and have gradually become a trending research
topic in both academics and industry. Advancing research and application in
such an emerging field necessitates the development of new tools to compose
TGNN models and unify their different schemes for dealing with temporal graphs.
In this work, we introduce LasTGL, an industrial framework that integrates
unified and extensible implementations of common temporal graph learning
algorithms for various advanced tasks. The purpose of LasTGL is to provide the
essential building blocks for solving temporal graph learning tasks, focusing
on the guiding principles of user-friendliness and quick prototyping on which
PyTorch is based. In particular, LasTGL provides comprehensive temporal graph
datasets, TGNN models and utilities along with well-documented tutorials,
making it suitable for both absolute beginners and expert deep learning
practitioners alike.Comment: Preprint; Work in progres
