Large-scale pre-trained vision foundation models, such as CLIP, have become de facto backbones for various vision tasks. However, due to the… (voir plus)ir black-box nature, understanding the underlying rules behind these models’ predictions and controlling model behaviors have remained open challenges. We present INViTE: a framework for INterpreting Vision Transformer’s latent tokens with Text Explanations. Given a latent token, INViTE retains its semantic information to the final layer using transformer’s local operations and retrieves the closest text for explanation. INViTE enables understanding of model visual reasoning procedure without needing additional model training or data collection. Based on the obtained interpretations, INViTE allows for model editing that controls model reasoning behaviors and improves model robustness against biases and spurious correlations. Our code is available at https://github.com/tonychenxyz/vit-interpret.

Learning to repeatedly solve routing problems

In the last years, there has been a great interest in machine‐learning‐based heuristics for solving NP‐hard combinatorial optimization… (voir plus) problems. The developed methods have shown potential on many optimization problems. In this paper, we present a learned heuristic for the reoptimization of a problem after a minor change in its data. We focus on the case of the capacited vehicle routing problem with static clients (i.e., same client locations) and changed demands. Given the edges of an original solution, the goal is to predict and fix the ones that have a high chance of remaining in an optimal solution after a change of client demands. This partial prediction of the solution reduces the complexity of the problem and speeds up its resolution, while yielding a good quality solution. The proposed approach resulted in solutions with an optimality gap ranging from 0% to 1.7% on different benchmark instances within a reasonable computing time.

Learning Tabu Search Algorithms: A Scheduling Application

. Metaheuristics are widely recognized as efficient approaches for many combinatorial problems. Studies to improve the performance of metahe… (voir plus)uristics have increasingly relied on the use of various methods either combining different metaheuristics or methods originating outside of the metaheuristic field. This paper presents a learning algorithm to improve tabu search by reducing its search space and the evaluation effort. We study the performance of a learning tabu search algorithm using classification methods in an attempt to select moves through the search space more wisely. The experimental results demonstrate the benefit of using a learning mechanism under deterministic and stochastic conditions.

List Comprehension Versus for Loops Performance in Real Python Projects: Should we Care?

List comprehensions are a Pythonic functional construct allowing developers to express in a concise way loops to build and manipulate lists.… (voir plus) Previous studies point to a gain in speed when list comprehensions are adopted. This paper reports the results of a study that compares the execution time performance of Python code written using list comprehensions as opposed to equivalent imperative programming. To this aim, we have developed a set of transformation rules to map Python for loops into list comprehensions. On the one hand, on artificial code snippets, we found list comprehensions to be faster than procedural code, with differences becoming evident if amplifying the tests, i.e., executing the code fragment thousands of times. On the other hand, this does not happen when executing real-world Python projects, where the performance may or may not improve, depending on the projects' features and the nature of the manipulated objects.
