We present a method for constructing synthetic datasets of Competency Questions translated into SPARQL-OWL queries. This method is used to generate BigCQ, the largest set of CQ patterns and SPARQL-OWL templates that can provide translation examples to automate assessing the completeness and correctness of ontologies.

The purpose of the AAAI conference is to promote research in artificial intelligence (AI) and scientific exchange among AI researchers, practitioners, scientists, and engineers in affiliated disciplines. 

Deep learning is a promising avenue to automate tedious analysis tasks in biomedical imaging. However, its application in such a context is limited by the large amount of labeled data required to train deep learning models. While active learning may be used to reduce the amount of labeling data, many approaches do not consider the cost of annotating, which is often significant in a biomedical imaging setting. In this work we show how annotation cost can be considered and learned during active learning on a classification task on the MNIST dataset.

Sampling of chordal graphs and various types of acyclic orientations over chordal graphs plays a central role in several AI applications such as causal structure learning. For a given undirected graph, an acyclic orientation is an assignment of directions to all of its edges which makes the resulting directed graph cycle-free. Sampling is often closely related to the corresponding counting problem. Counting of acyclic orientations of a given chordal graph can be done in polynomial time, but the previously known techniques do not seem to lead to a corresponding (efficient) sampler. In this work, we propose a dynamic programming framework which yields a counter and a uniform sampler, both of which run in (essentially) linear time. An interesting feature of our sampler is that it is a stand-alone algorithm that, unlike other DP-based samplers, does not need any preprocessing which determines the corresponding counts.

Few-shot relation learning refers to infer facts for relations with a few observed triples. Existing metric-learning methods mostly neglect entity interactions within and between triples. In this paper, we explore this kind of fine-grained semantic meaning and propose our model TransAM. Specifically, we serialize reference entities and query entities into sequence and apply transformer structure with local-global attention to capture intra- and inter-triple entity interactions. Experiments on two public datasets with 1-shot setting prove the effectiveness of TransAM.

Exploring Entity Interactions for Few-Shot Relation Learning (Student Abstract)

Aside the high performance of graph neural networks (GNNs), considerable attention has recently been paid to explanations of black-box deep learning models. Unlike most studies focusing on model explanations based on a specific graph instance, we propose Prototype-bAsed GNN-Explainer (PAGE), a novel model-level explanation method for graph-level classification that explains what the underlying model has learned by providing human-interpretable prototypes. Specifically, our method performs clustering on the embedding space of the underlying GNN model; extracts embeddings in each cluster; and discovers prototypes, which serve as model explanations, by estimating the maximum common subgraph (MCS) from the extracted embeddings. Experimental evaluation demonstrates that PAGE not only provides high-quality explanations but also outperforms the state-of-the-art model-level method in terms of consistency and faithfulness that are performance metrics for quantitative evaluations.

Neural Architecture Search (NAS) algorithms automate the task of finding optimal deep learning architectures given an initial search space of possible operations. Developing these search spaces is usually a manual affair with pre-optimized search spaces being more efficient, rather than searching from scratch. In this paper we present a new framework called Neural Architecture Type System (NeuralArTS) that categorizes the infinite set of network operations in a structured type system. We further demonstrate how NeuralArTS can be applied to convolutional layers and propose several future directions.

NeuralArTS: Structuring Neural Architecture Search with Type Theory (Student Abstract)

We consider a class of visual analogical reasoning problems that involve discovering the sequence of transformations by which pairs of input/output images are related, so as to analogously transform future inputs. This program synthesis task can be easily solved via symbolic search. Using a variation of the â€˜neural analogical reasoning' approach, we instead search for a sequence of elementary neural network transformations that manipulate distributed representations derived from a symbolic space, to which input images are directly encoded. We evaluate the extent to which our â€˜neural reasoning' approach generalises for images with unseen shapes and positions.

Solving Visual Analogies Using Neural Algorithmic Reasoning (Student Abstract)

Fine-grained urban flow inference (FUFI) aims to infer the coarse-grained (CG) urban flow map to the corresponding fine-grained (FG) one, which plays an important role in efficient traffic monitoring and management in smart cities. In FUFI, the CG map can be obtained with only a small number of monitoring devices, greatly reducing the overhead of deploying devices and the costs of maintenance, labor, and electricity. Existing FUFI methods are mainly based on techniques from image super-resolution (SR) models, which cannot fully consider the influence of external factors and face the ill-posed problem in SR tasks. In this paper, we propose UFI-Flow, a novel approach for addressing the FUFI problem by learning the conditional distributions of CG and FG map pairs. Given the CG map and the latent variables, the corresponding FG map is inferred by invertible transformations. In addition, an augmented distribution fusion mechanism is further proposed to constrain the urban flow distribution within the influence of external factors. We provide a new large-scale real-world FUFI dataset and show that UFI-Flow significantly outperforms the strong baselines.

Control Barrier Functions have been extensively studied to ensure guaranteed safety during inter-robot interactions. In this paper, we introduce the Parametric-Control Barrier Function (Parametric-CBF), a novel variant of the traditional Control Barrier Function to extend its expressivity in describing different safe behaviors among heterogeneous robots. A parametric-CBF based framework is presented to enable the ego robot to model the neighboring robots behavior and further improve the coordination efficiency during interaction while enjoying formally provable safety guarantees. We demonstrate the usage of Parametric-CBF in behavior prediction and adaptive safe control in the ramp merging scenario.

Deep Neural Networks have memory and computational demands that often render them difficult to use in low-resource environments. Also, highly dense networks are over-parameterized and thus prone to overfitting. To address these problems, we introduce a novel algorithm that prunes (sparsifies) weights from the network by taking into account their magnitudes and gradients taken against a validation dataset. Unlike existing pruning methods, our method does not require the network model to be retrained once initial training is completed. On the CIFAR-10 dataset, our method reduced the number of paramters of MobileNet by a factor of 9X, from 14 million to 1.5 million, with just a 3.8% drop in accuracy.

We introduce a novel technique to identify three spectra representing the three primary materials in a hyperspectral image of a scene. We accomplish this using a modified autoencoder. Further research will be conducted to verify the accuracy of these spectra.
