The popularity of large-scale pre-training has promoted the development of medical foundation models. However, some studies have shown that although foundation models exhibit strong general feature extraction capabilities, their performance on specific tasks is still inferior to task-specific methods. In this paper, we explore a new perspective called ``Knowledge Decomposition'' to improve the performance on specific medical tasks, which deconstruct the foundation model into multiple lightweight expert models, each dedicated to a particular task, with the goal of improving specialization while concurrently mitigating resource expenditure. To accomplish the above objective, we design a novel framework named Low-Rank Knowledge Decomposition (LoRKD), which explicitly separates graidents by incorporating low-rank expert modules and the efficient knowledge separation convolution. Extensive experimental results demonstrate that the decomposed models perform well in terms of performance and transferability, even surpassing the original foundation models.
Graph Neural Network has been proved to be effective for fraud detection for its capability to encode node interaction and aggregate features in a holistic view. Recently, Transformer network with great sequence encoding ability, has also outperformed other GNN-based methods in literatures. However, both GNN-based and Transformer-based networks only encode one perspective of the whole graph, while GNN encodes global features and Transformer network encodes local ones. Furthermore, previous works ignored encoding global interaction features of the heterogeneous graph with separate networks, thus leading to suboptimal performance. In this work, we present a novel framework called Relation-Aware GNN with transFormer (RAGFormer) which simultaneously embeds local and global features into a target node. The simple yet effective network applies a modified GAGA module where each transformer layer is followed by a cross-relation aggregation layer, to encode local embeddings and node interactions across different relations. Apart from the Transformer-based network, we further introduce a Relation-Aware GNN module to learn global embeddings, which is later merged into the local embeddings by an attention fusion module and a skip connection. Extensive experiments on two popular public datasets and an industrial dataset demonstrate that RAGFormer achieves the state-of-the-art performance. Substantial analysis experiments validate the effectiveness of each submodule of RAGFormer and its high efficiency in utilizing small-scale data and low hyper-parameter sensitivity.
This work proposes a Physics-informed Neural Network framework with Graph Embedding (GPINN) to perform PINN in graph, i.e. topological space instead of traditional Euclidean space, for improved problem-solving efficiency. The method integrates topological data into the neural network's computations, which significantly boosts the performance of the Physics-Informed Neural Network (PINN). The graph embedding technique infuses extra dimensions into the input space to encapsulate the spatial characteristics of a graph while preserving the properties of the original space. The selection of these extra dimensions is guided by the Fiedler vector, offering an optimised pathologic notation of the graph. Two case studies are conducted, which demonstrate significant improvement in the performance of GPINN in comparison to traditional PINN, particularly in its superior ability to capture physical features of the solution.
Human interpretation of the world encompasses the use of symbols to categorize sensory inputs and compose them in a hierarchical manner. One of the long-term objectives of Computer Vision and Artificial Intelligence is to endow machines with the capacity of structuring and interpreting the world as we do. Towards this goal, recent methods have successfully been able to decompose and disentangle video sequences into their composing objects and dynamics, in a self-supervised fashion. However, there has been a scarce effort in giving interpretation to the dynamics of the scene. We propose a method to decompose a video into moving objects and their attributes, and model each object's dynamics with linear system identification tools, by means of a Koopman embedding. This allows interpretation, manipulation and extrapolation of the dynamics of the different objects by employing the Koopman operator K. We test our method in various synthetic datasets and successfully forecast challenging trajectories while interpreting them.
