OrbitalBrain: A Distributed Framework for Training ML Models in Space

Authors: Om Chabra, Chenning Li, Kevin Hsieh, Santiago Segarra, Behnaz Arzani, Peder Olsen, and Ranveer Chandra

Abstract
Earth observation nanosatellites capture high-resolution photos of the Earth in near real-time. These images increasingly support ML applications that are critical for safety and response, such as forest fire and flood detection. However, the downlink bandwidth is limited, resulting in days or weeks of delay from image capture to training. In this work, we propose OrbitalBrain, an efficient in-space distributed ML training framework that leverages limited and predictable satellite compute, bandwidth, and power to intelligently balance data transfer, model aggregation, and local training. Our evaluations demonstrate that OrbitalBrain achieves 1.52×-12.4× speedup in time-to-accuracy while always reaching a higher final model accuracy compared to state-of-the-art ground-based or federated learning baselines. Furthermore, our approach is complementary to satellite imagery capturing and downloading, enhancing the overall efficiency of satellite-based applications.

Mining Inter-Document Argument Structures in Scientific Papers for an Argument Web

Authors: Florian Ruosch, Cristina Sarasua, and Abraham Bernstein

Published in: TGDK, Volume 3, Issue 3 (2025). Transactions on Graph Data and Knowledge, Volume 3, Issue 3


Abstract
In Argument Mining, predicting argumentative relations between texts (or spans) remains one of the most challenging aspects, even more so in the cross-document setting. This paper makes three key contributions to advance research in this domain. We first extend an existing dataset, the Sci-Arg corpus, by annotating it with explicit inter-document argumentative relations, thereby allowing arguments to be distributed over several documents forming an Argument Web; these new annotations are published using Semantic Web technologies (RDF, OWL). Second, we explore and evaluate three automated approaches for predicting these inter-document argumentative relations, establishing critical baselines on the new dataset. We find that a simple classifier based on discourse indicators with access to context outperforms neural methods. Third, we conduct a comparative analysis of these approaches for both intra- and inter-document settings, identifying statistically significant differences in results that indicate the necessity of distinguishing between these two scenarios. Our findings highlight significant challenges in this complex domain and open crucial avenues for future research on the Argument Web of Science, particularly for those interested in leveraging Semantic Web technologies and knowledge graphs to understand scholarly discourse. With this, we provide the first stepping stones in the form of a benchmark dataset, three baseline methods, and an initial analysis for a systematic exploration of this field relevant to the Web of Data and Science.

Resilience in Knowledge Graph Embeddings

Authors: Arnab Sharma, N'Dah Jean Kouagou, and Axel-Cyrille Ngonga Ngomo

Published in: TGDK, Volume 3, Issue 2 (2025). Transactions on Graph Data and Knowledge, Volume 3, Issue 2


Abstract
In recent years, knowledge graphs have gained interest and witnessed widespread applications in various domains, such as information retrieval, question-answering, recommendation systems, amongst others. Large-scale knowledge graphs to this end have demonstrated their utility in effectively representing structured knowledge. To further facilitate the application of machine learning techniques, knowledge graph embedding models have been developed. Such models can transform entities and relationships within knowledge graphs into vectors. However, these embedding models often face challenges related to noise, missing information, distribution shift, adversarial attacks, etc. This can lead to sub-optimal embeddings and incorrect inferences, thereby negatively impacting downstream applications. While the existing literature has focused so far on adversarial attacks on KGE models, the challenges related to the other critical aspects remain unexplored. In this paper, we, first of all, give a unified definition of resilience, encompassing several factors such as generalisation, in-distribution generalization, distribution adaption, and robustness. After formalizing these concepts for machine learning in general, we define them in the context of knowledge graphs. To find the gap in the existing works on resilience in the context of knowledge graphs, we perform a systematic survey, taking into account all these aspects mentioned previously. Our survey results show that most of the existing works focus on a specific aspect of resilience, namely robustness. After categorizing such works based on their respective aspects of resilience, we discuss the challenges and future research directions.

The Complexity of SORE-definability Problems

Authors: Ping Lu, Zhilin Wu, and Haiming Chen

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 83, 42nd International Symposium on Mathematical Foundations of Computer Science (MFCS 2017)


Abstract
Single occurrence regular expressions (SORE) are a special kind of deterministic regular expressions, which are extensively used in the schema languages DTD and XSD for XML documents. In this paper, with motivations from the simplification of XML schemas, we consider the SORE-definability problem: Given a regular expression, decide whether it has an equivalent SORE. We investigate extensively the complexity of the SORE-definability problem: We consider both (standard) regular expressions and regular expressions with counting, and distinguish between the alphabets of size at least two and unary alphabets. In all cases, we obtain tight complexity bounds. In addition, we consider another variant of this problem, the bounded SORE-definability problem, which is to decide, given a regular expression E and a number M (encoded in unary or binary), whether there is an SORE, which is equivalent to E on the set of words of length at most M. We show that in several cases, there is an exponential decrease in the complexity when switching from the SORE-definability problem to its bounded variant.
