PolarDB-IMCI: A Cloud-Native HTAP Database System at Alibaba
Jianying Wang, Tongliang Li, Haoze Song +21
Cloud-native databases have become the de-facto choice for mission-critical applications on the cloud due to the need for high availability, resource elasticity, and cost efficienc…
Modulate Your Spectrum in Self-Supervised Learning
Xi Weng, Yunhao Ni, Tengwei Song +5
Whitening loss offers a theoretical guarantee against feature collapse in self-supervised learning (SSL) with joint embedding architectures. Typically, it involves a hard whitening…
Optimal Pricing Schemes in the Presence of Social Learning and Costly Reporting
Kaiwei Zhang, Xi Weng, Xienan Cheng
A monopoly platform sells either a risky product (with unknown utility) or a safe product (with known utility) to agents who sequentially arrive and learn the utility of the risky…
An Investigation into Whitening Loss for Self-supervised Learning
Xi Weng, Lei Huang, Lei Zhao +3
A desirable objective in self-supervised learning (SSL) is to avoid feature collapse. Whitening loss guarantees collapse avoidance by minimizing the distance between embeddings of…
Deep Multi-Branch Aggregation Network for Real-Time Semantic Segmentation in Street Scenes
Xi Weng, Yan Yan, Genshun Dong +4
Real-time semantic segmentation, which aims to achieve high segmentation accuracy at real-time inference speed, has received substantial attention over the past few years. However,…
A VCG-based Fair Incentive Mechanism for Federated Learning
Mingshu Cong, Han Yu, Xi Weng +3
The enduring value of the Vickrey-Clarke-Groves (VCG) mechanism has been highlighted due to its adoption by Facebook ad auctions. Our research delves into its utility in the collab…
Optimal Procurement Auction for Cooperative Production of Virtual Products: Vickrey-Clarke-Groves Meet Cremer-McLean
Mingshu Cong, Xi Weng, Han Yu +2
We set up a supply-side game-theoretic model for the cooperative production of virtual products. In our model, a group of producers collaboratively produce a virtual product by con…
