Abstract Deep multi-view subspace clustering (DMVSC) based on self-expression has attracted increasing attention due to its outstanding performance and nonlinear application. However, most existing methods neglect that view-private meaningless information or noise may interfere with the learning of self-expression, which may lead to the degeneration of clustering performance. In this paper, we propose a novel framework of Contrastive Consistency and Attentive Complementarity (CCAC) for DMVsSC. CCAC aligns all the self-expressions of multiple views and fuses them based on their discrimination, so that it can effectively explore consistent and complementary information for achieving precise clustering. Specifically, the view-specific self-expression is learned by… More >

Abstract Knowledge graph can assist in improving recommendation performance and is widely applied in various personalized recommendation domains. However, existing knowledge-aware recommendation methods face challenges such as weak user-item interaction supervisory signals and noise in the knowledge graph. To tackle these issues, this paper proposes a neighbor information contrast-enhanced recommendation method by adding subtle noise to construct contrast views and employing contrastive learning to strengthen supervisory signals and reduce knowledge noise. Specifically, first, this paper adopts heterogeneous propagation and knowledge-aware attention networks to obtain multi-order neighbor embedding of users and items, mining the high-order neighbor information of users and items. Next,… More >

Abstract Person re-identification (ReID) aims to recognize the same person in multiple images from different camera views. Training person ReID models are time-consuming and resource-intensive; thus, cloud computing is an appropriate model training solution. However, the required massive personal data for training contain private information with a significant risk of data leakage in cloud environments, leading to significant communication overheads. This paper proposes a federated person ReID method with model-contrastive learning (MOON) in an edge-cloud environment, named FRM. Specifically, based on federated partial averaging, MOON warmup is added to correct the local training of individual edge servers and improve the model’s… More >

Abstract Some reconstruction-based anomaly detection models in multivariate time series have brought impressive performance advancements but suffer from weak generalization ability and a lack of anomaly identification. These limitations can result in the misjudgment of models, leading to a degradation in overall detection performance. This paper proposes a novel transformer-like anomaly detection model adopting a contrastive learning module and a memory block (CLME) to overcome the above limitations. The contrastive learning module tailored for time series data can learn the contextual relationships to generate temporal fine-grained representations. The memory block can record normal patterns of these representations through the utilization of… More >

Abstract Multimodal sentiment analysis is an essential area of research in artificial intelligence that combines multiple modes, such as text and image, to accurately assess sentiment. However, conventional approaches that rely on unimodal pre-trained models for feature extraction from each modality often overlook the intrinsic connections of semantic information between modalities. This limitation is attributed to their training on unimodal data, and necessitates the use of complex fusion mechanisms for sentiment analysis. In this study, we present a novel approach that combines a vision-language pre-trained model with a proposed multimodal contrastive learning method. Our approach harnesses the power of transfer learning… More >

Abstract Interference signals recognition plays an important role in anti-jamming communication. With the development of deep learning, many supervised interference signals recognition algorithms based on deep learning have emerged recently and show better performance than traditional recognition algorithms. However, there is no unsupervised interference signals recognition algorithm at present. In this paper, an unsupervised interference signals recognition method called double phases and double dimensions contrastive clustering (DDCC) is proposed. Specifically, in the first phase, four data augmentation strategies for interference signals are used in data-augmentation-based (DA-based) contrastive learning. In the second phase, the original dataset’s k-nearest neighbor set (KNNset) is designed… More >

Abstract This paper presents an end-to-end deep learning method to solve geometry problems via feature learning and contrastive learning of multimodal data. A key challenge in solving geometry problems using deep learning is to automatically adapt to the task of understanding single-modal and multimodal problems. Existing methods either focus on single-modal or multimodal problems, and they cannot fit each other. A general geometry problem solver should obviously be able to process various modal problems at the same time. In this paper, a shared feature-learning model of multimodal data is adopted to learn the unified feature representation of text and image, which… More >

Abstract System logs are essential for detecting anomalies, querying faults, and tracing attacks. Because of the time-consuming and labor-intensive nature of manual system troubleshooting and anomaly detection, it cannot meet the actual needs. The implementation of automated log anomaly detection is a topic that demands urgent research. However, the prior work on processing log data is mainly one-dimensional and cannot profoundly learn the complex associations in log data. Meanwhile, there is a lack of attention to the utilization of log labels and usually relies on a large number of labels for detection. This paper proposes a novel and practical detection model… More >
