Time Series Anomaly Detection Leveraging MSE Feedback with AutoEncoder and RNN

Authors: Ibrahim Delibasoglu and Fredrik Heintz

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 318, 31st International Symposium on Temporal Representation and Reasoning (TIME 2024)

Abstract
Anomaly detection in time series data is a critical task in various domains, including finance, healthcare, cybersecurity and industry. Traditional methods, such as time series decomposition, clustering, and density estimation, have provided robust solutions for identifying anomalies that exhibit distinct patterns or significant deviations from normal data distributions. Recent advancements in machine learning and deep learning have further enhanced these capabilities. This paper introduces a novel method for anomaly detection that combines the strengths of autoencoders and recurrent neural networks (RNNs) with an reconstruction error feedback mechanism based on Mean Squared Error. We compare our method against classical techniques and recent approaches like OmniAnomaly, which leverages stochastic recurrent neural networks, and the Anomaly Transformer, which introduces association discrepancy to capture long-range dependencies and DCDetector using contrastive representation learning with multi-scale dual attention. Experimental results demonstrate that our method achieves superior overall performance in terms of precision, recall, and F1 score. The source code is available at http://github.com/mribrahim/AE-FAR

Longest Common Substring with Gaps and Related Problems

Authors: Aranya Banerjee, Daniel Gibney, and Sharma V. Thankachan

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 308, 32nd Annual European Symposium on Algorithms (ESA 2024)

Abstract
The longest common substring (also known as longest common factor) and longest common subsequence problems are two well-studied classical string problems. The former is solvable in optimal 𝒪(n) time for two strings of length m and n with m ≤ n, and the latter is solvable in 𝒪(nm) time, which is conditionally optimal under the Strong Exponential Time Hypothesis. In this work, we study the problem of longest common factor with gaps, that is, finding a set of at most k matching substrings obeying precedence conditions with maximum total length. For k = 1, this is equivalent to the longest common factor problem, and for k = m, this is equivalent to the longest common subsequence problem. Our work demonstrates that, for constant k, this problem can be solved in strongly subquadratic time, i.e., nm^{1 - Θ(1)}. Motivated by co-linear chaining applications in Computational Biology, we further demonstrate that the longest common factor with gaps results can be extended to the case where the matches are restricted to maximal exact matches (MEMs). To further demonstrate the applicability of our techniques, we show that a similar approach can be used for a restricted version of the episode matching problem where one seeks an ordered set of at most k matches whose concatenation equals a query pattern P and the length of the substring of T containing the matches is minimized. These solutions all run in strongly subquadratic time for constant k.

Scheduling Splittable Jobs on Configurable Machines

Authors: Matthew Casey, Rajmohan Rajaraman, David Stalfa, and Cheng Tan

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 317, Approximation, Randomization, and Combinatorial Optimization. Algorithms and Techniques (APPROX/RANDOM 2024)

Abstract
Motivated by modern architectures allowing for the partitioning of a GPU into hardware separated instances, we initiate the study of scheduling splittable jobs on configurable machines. We consider machines that can be configured into smaller instances, which we call blocks, in multiple ways, each of which is referred to as a configuration. We introduce the Configurable Machine Scheduling (cms) problem, where we are given n jobs and a set C of configurations. A schedule consists of a set of machines, each assigned some configuration in C with each block in the configuration assigned to process one job. The amount of a job’s demand that is satisfied by a block is given by an arbitrary function of the job and block. The objective is to construct a schedule using as few machines as possible. We provide a tight logarithmic factor approximation algorithm for this problem in the general setting, a factor (3 + ε) approximation algorithm for arbitrary ε > 0 when there are O(1) input configurations, and a polynomial time approximation scheme when both the number and size of configurations are O(1). Finally, we utilize a technique for finding conic integer combinations in fixed dimension to develop an optimal polynomial time algorithm in the case with O(1) jobs, O(1) blocks, and every configuration up to a given size.

Privacy Comparison for Bitcoin Light Client Implementations

Authors: Arad Kotzer and Ori Rottenstreich

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 316, 6th Conference on Advances in Financial Technologies (AFT 2024)

Abstract
Light clients implement a simple solution for Bitcoin’s scalability problem, as they do not store the entire blockchain but only the state of particular addresses of interest. To be able to keep track of the updated state of their addresses, light clients rely on full nodes to provide them with the required information. To do so, they must reveal information about the addresses they are interested in. This paper studies the two most common light client implementations, SPV and Neutrino with regards to their privacy. We define privacy metrics for comparing the privacy of the different implementations. We evaluate and compare the privacy of the implementations over time on real Bitcoin data and discuss the inherent privacy-communication tradeoff. In addition, we propose general techniques to enhance light client privacy in the existing implementations. Finally, we propose a new SPV-based light client model, the aggregation model, evaluate it, and show it can achieve enhanced privacy than in the existing light client implementations.

Mutation-Based Lifted Repair of Software Product Lines

Authors: Aleksandar S. Dimovski

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 313, 38th European Conference on Object-Oriented Programming (ECOOP 2024)

Abstract
This paper presents a novel lifted repair algorithm for program families (Software Product Lines - SPLs) based on code mutations. The inputs of our algorithm are an erroneous SPL and a specification given in the form of assertions. We use variability encoding to transform the given SPL into a single program, called family simulator, which is translated into a set of SMT formulas whose conjunction is satisfiable iff the simulator (i.e., the input SPL) violates an assertion. We use a predefined set of mutations applied to feature and program expressions of the given SPL. The algorithm repeatedly mutates the erroneous family simulator and checks if it becomes (bounded) correct. Since mutating an expression corresponds to mutating a formula in the set of SMT formulas encoding the family simulator, the search for a correct mutant is reduced to searching an unsatisfiable set of SMT formulas. To efficiently explore the huge state space of mutants, we call SAT and SMT solvers in an incremental way. The outputs of our algorithm are all minimal repairs in the form of minimal number of (feature and program) expression replacements such that the repaired SPL is (bounded) correct with respect to a given set of assertions. We have implemented our algorithm in a prototype tool and evaluated it on a set of #ifdef-based C programs (i.e., annotative SPLs). The experimental results show that our approach is able to successfully repair various interesting SPLs.

Rose: Composable Autodiff for the Interactive Web

Authors: Sam Estep, Wode Ni, Raven Rothkopf, and Joshua Sunshine

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 313, 38th European Conference on Object-Oriented Programming (ECOOP 2024)

Abstract
Reverse-mode automatic differentiation (autodiff) has been popularized by deep learning, but its ability to compute gradients is also valuable for interactive use cases such as bidirectional computer-aided design, embedded physics simulations, visualizing causal inference, and more. Unfortunately, the web is ill-served by existing autodiff frameworks, which use autodiff strategies that perform poorly on dynamic scalar programs, and pull in heavy dependencies that would result in unacceptable webpage sizes. This work introduces Rose, a lightweight autodiff framework for the web using a new hybrid approach to reverse-mode autodiff, blending conventional tracing and transformation techniques in a way that uses the host language for metaprogramming while also allowing the programmer to explicitly define reusable functions that comprise a larger differentiable computation. We demonstrate the value of the Rose design by porting two differentiable physics simulations, and evaluate its performance on an optimization-based diagramming application, showing Rose outperforming the state-of-the-art in web-based autodiff by multiple orders of magnitude.

Revealing Differences in Public Transport Share Through District-Wise Comparison and Relating Them to Network Properties

Authors: Manuela Canestrini, Ioanna Gogousou, Dimitrios Michail, and Ioannis Giannopoulos

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 315, 16th International Conference on Spatial Information Theory (COSIT 2024)

Abstract
Sustainable transport is becoming an increasingly pressing issue, with two major pillars being the reduction of car usage and the promotion of public transport. One way to approach both of these pillars is through the large number of daily commute trips in urban areas, and their modal split. Previous research gathered knowledge on influencing factors on the modal split mainly through travel surveys. We take a different approach by analysing the "raw" network and the time-optimised trips on a multi-modal graph. For the case study of Vienna, Austria we investigate how the option to use a private car influences the modal split of routes towards the city centre. Additionally, we compare the modal split across seven inner districts and we relate properties of the public transport network to the respective share of public transport. The results suggest that different districts have varying options of public transport connections towards the city centre, with a share of public transport between about 5% up to a share of 45%. This reveals areas where investments in public transport could reduce commute times to the city centre. Regarding network properties, our findings suggest, that it is not sufficient to analyse the joint public transport network. Instead, individual public transport modalities should be examined. We show that the network length and the direction of the lines towards the city centre influence the proportion of subway and tram in the modal split.

Fairness and Consensus in an Asynchronous Opinion Model for Social Networks

Authors: Jesús Aranda, Sebastián Betancourt, Juan Fco. Díaz, and Frank Valencia

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 311, 35th International Conference on Concurrency Theory (CONCUR 2024)

Abstract
We introduce a DeGroot-based model for opinion dynamics in social networks. A community of agents is represented as a weighted directed graph whose edges indicate how much agents influence one another. The model is formalized using labeled transition systems, henceforth called opinion transition systems (OTS), whose states represent the agents' opinions and whose actions are the edges of the influence graph. If a transition labeled (i,j) is performed, agent j updates their opinion taking into account the opinion of agent i and the influence i has over j. We study (convergence to) opinion consensus among the agents of strongly-connected graphs with influence values in the interval (0,1). We show that consensus cannot be guaranteed under the standard strong fairness assumption on transition systems. We derive that consensus is guaranteed under a stronger notion from the literature of concurrent systems; bounded fairness. We argue that bounded-fairness is too strong of a notion for consensus as it almost surely rules out random runs and it is not a constructive liveness property. We introduce a weaker fairness notion, called m-bounded fairness, and show that it guarantees consensus. The new notion includes almost surely all random runs and it is a constructive liveness property. Finally, we consider OTS with dynamic influence and show convergence to consensus holds under m-bounded fairness if the influence changes within a fixed interval [L,U] with 0 < L < U < 1. We illustrate OTS with examples and simulations, offering insights into opinion formation under fairness and dynamic influence.

Constraint Modelling with LLMs Using In-Context Learning

Authors: Kostis Michailidis, Dimos Tsouros, and Tias Guns

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 307, 30th International Conference on Principles and Practice of Constraint Programming (CP 2024)

Abstract
Constraint Programming (CP) allows for the modelling and solving of a wide range of combinatorial problems. However, modelling such problems using constraints over decision variables still requires significant expertise, both in conceptual thinking and syntactic use of modelling languages. In this work, we explore the potential of using pre-trained Large Language Models (LLMs) as coding assistants, to transform textual problem descriptions into concrete and executable CP specifications. We present different transformation pipelines with explicit intermediate representations, and we investigate the potential benefit of various retrieval-augmented example selection strategies for in-context learning. We evaluate our approach on 2 datasets from the literature, namely NL4Opt (optimisation) and Logic Grid Puzzles (satisfaction), and a heterogeneous set of exercises from a CP course. The results show that pre-trained LLMs have promising potential for initialising the modelling process, with retrieval-augmented in-context learning significantly enhancing their modelling capabilities.

Optimizing Per-Core Priorities to Minimize End-To-End Latencies

Authors: Francesco Paladino, Alessandro Biondi, Enrico Bini, and Paolo Pazzaglia

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 298, 36th Euromicro Conference on Real-Time Systems (ECRTS 2024)

Abstract
Logical Execution Time (LET) allows decoupling the schedule of real-time periodic tasks from their communication, with the advantage of isolating the communication pattern from the variability of the schedule. However, when such tasks are organized in chains, the usage of LET at the task level does not necessarily transfer the same LET properties to the chain level. In this paper, we extend a LET-like model from tasks to chains spanning over multiple cores. We leverage the designed constant latency chains to optimize per-core priority assignment. Finally, we also provide a set of heuristic algorithms, that are compared in a large-scale experimental evaluation.

The Omnivisor: A Real-Time Static Partitioning Hypervisor Extension for Heterogeneous Core Virtualization over MPSoCs

Authors: Daniele Ottaviano, Francesco Ciraolo, Renato Mancuso, and Marcello Cinque

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 298, 36th Euromicro Conference on Real-Time Systems (ECRTS 2024)

Abstract
Following the needs of industrial applications, virtualization has emerged as one of the most effective approaches for the consolidation of mixed-criticality systems while meeting tight constraints in terms of space, weight, power, and cost (SWaP-C). In embedded platforms with homogeneous processors, a wealth of works have proposed designs and techniques to enforce spatio-temporal isolation by leveraging well-understood virtualization support. Unfortunately, achieving the same goal on heterogeneous MultiProcessor Systems-on-Chip (MPSoCs) has been largely overlooked. Modern hypervisors are designed to operate exclusively on main cores, with little or no consideration given to other co-processors within the system, such as small microcontroller-level CPUs or soft-cores deployed on programmable logic (FPGA). Typically, hypervisors consider co-processors as I/O devices allocated to virtual machines that run on primary cores, yielding full control and responsibility over them. Nevertheless, inadequate management of these resources can lead to spatio-temporal isolation issues within the system. In this paper, we propose the Omnivisor model as a paradigm for the holistic management of heterogeneous platforms. The model generalizes the features of real-time static partitioning hypervisors to enable the execution of virtual machines on processors with different Instruction Set Architectures (ISAs) within the same MPSoC. Moreover, the Omnivisor ensures temporal and spatial isolation between virtual machines by integrating and leveraging a variety of hardware and software protection mechanisms. The presented approach not only expands the scope of virtualization in MPSoCs but also enhances the overall system reliability and real-time performance for mixed-criticality applications. A full open-source reference implementation of the Omnivisor based on the Jailhouse hypervisor is provided, targeting ARM real-time processing units and RISC-V soft-cores on FPGA. Experimental results on real hardware show the benefits of the solution, including enabling the seamless launch of virtual machines on different ISAs and extending spatial/temporal isolation to heterogenous cores with enhanced regulation policies.

Response Time Analysis for Fixed-Priority Preemptive Uniform Multiprocessor Systems

Authors: Binqi Sun, Tomasz Kloda, and Marco Caccamo

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 298, 36th Euromicro Conference on Real-Time Systems (ECRTS 2024)

Abstract
We present a response time analysis for global fixed-priority preemptive scheduling of constrained-deadline tasks upon a uniform multiprocessor where each processor can be characterized by a different speed. A fixed-priority scheduler assigns the jobs with the highest priorities to the fastest processors. Since determining whether all tasks can meet their deadlines is generally intractable even with identical processors, we propose two sufficient schedulability tests that calculate upper bounds on the task’s worst-case response time within polynomial and pseudo-polynomial time. The proposed tests leverage the linear programming model to upper bound the interference of the higher-priority tasks. Furthermore, we identify specific conditions and platforms upon which the problem can be solved more efficiently within linear time. These formulations are used to iteratively evaluate and refine possible solutions until a safe upper bound on the task’s worst-case response time is found. Additionally, we demonstrate that, with specific minor modifications, the proposed tests are compatible with Audsley’s optimal priority assignment. Experimental evaluations performed on synthetic task sets show that the proposed approach outperforms the state-of-the-art methods.

Fast Approximate Counting of Cycles

Authors: Keren Censor-Hillel, Tomer Even, and Virginia Vassilevska Williams

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 297, 51st International Colloquium on Automata, Languages, and Programming (ICALP 2024)

Abstract
We consider the problem of approximate counting of triangles and longer fixed length cycles in directed graphs. For triangles, Tětek [ICALP'22] gave an algorithm that returns a (1±ε)-approximation in Õ(n^ω/t^{ω-2}) time, where t is the unknown number of triangles in the given n node graph and ω < 2.372 is the matrix multiplication exponent. We obtain an improved algorithm whose running time is, within polylogarithmic factors the same as that for multiplying an n× n/t matrix by an n/t × n matrix. We then extend our framework to obtain the first nontrivial (1± ε)-approximation algorithms for the number of h-cycles in a graph, for any constant h ≥ 3. Our running time is Õ(MM(n,n/t^{1/(h-2)},n)), the time to multiply n × n/(t^{1/(h-2)}) by n/(t^{1/(h-2)) × n matrices. Finally, we show that under popular fine-grained hypotheses, this running time is optimal.

Improved Lower Bounds for Approximating Parameterized Nearest Codeword and Related Problems Under ETH

Authors: Shuangle Li, Bingkai Lin, and Yuwei Liu

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 297, 51st International Colloquium on Automata, Languages, and Programming (ICALP 2024)

Abstract
In this paper we present a new gap-creating randomized self-reduction for the parameterized Maximum Likelihood Decoding problem over 𝔽_p (k-MLD_p). The reduction takes a k-MLD_p instance with k⋅ n d-dimensional vectors as input, runs in O(d2^{O(k)}n^{1.01}) time for some computable function f, outputs a (3/2-ε)-Gap-k'-MLD_p instance for any ε > 0, where k' = O(k²log k). Using this reduction, we show that assuming the randomized Exponential Time Hypothesis (ETH), no algorithms can approximate k-MLD_p (and therefore its dual problem k-NCP_p) within factor (3/2-ε) in f(k)⋅ n^{o(√{k/log k})} time for any ε > 0. We then use reduction by Bhattacharyya, Ghoshal, Karthik and Manurangsi (ICALP 2018) to amplify the (3/2-ε)-gap to any constant. As a result, we show that assuming ETH, no algorithms can approximate k-NCP_p and k-MDP_p within γ-factor in f(k)⋅ n^{o(k^{ε_γ})} time for some constant ε_γ > 0. Combining with the gap-preserving reduction by Bennett, Cheraghchi, Guruswami and Ribeiro (STOC 2023), we also obtain similar lower bounds for k-MDP_p, k-CVP_p and k-SVP_p. These results improve upon the previous f(k)⋅ n^{Ω(poly log k)} lower bounds for these problems under ETH using reductions by Bhattacharyya et al. (J.ACM 2021) and Bennett et al. (STOC 2023).

Current and Future Challenges in Knowledge Representation and Reasoning (Dagstuhl Perspectives Workshop 22282)

Authors: James P. Delgrande, Birte Glimm, Thomas Meyer, Miroslaw Truszczynski, and Frank Wolter

Published in: Dagstuhl Manifestos, Volume 10, Issue 1 (2024)

Abstract
Knowledge Representation and Reasoning is a central, longstanding, and active area of Artificial Intelligence. Over the years it has evolved significantly; more recently it has been challenged and complemented by research in areas such as machine learning and reasoning under uncertainty. In July 2022,sser a Dagstuhl Perspectives workshop was held on Knowledge Representation and Reasoning. The goal of the workshop was to describe the state of the art in the field, including its relation with other areas, its shortcomings and strengths, together with recommendations for future progress. We developed this manifesto based on the presentations, panels, working groups, and discussions that took place at the Dagstuhl Workshop. It is a declaration of our views on Knowledge Representation: its origins, goals, milestones, and current foci; its relation to other disciplines, especially to Artificial Intelligence; and on its challenges, along with key priorities for the next decade.
