DG-STMTL: A Novel Graph Convolutional Network for Multi-Task Spatio-Temporal Traffic Forecasting

Spatio-temporal traffic prediction is crucial in intelligent transportation systems. The key challenge of accurate prediction is how to model the complex spatio-temporal dependencies and adapt to the inherent dynamics in data. Traditional Graph Convolutional Networks (GCNs) often struggle with static adjacency matrices that introduce domain bias or learnable matrices that may be overfitting to specific patterns. This challenge becomes more complex when considering Multi-Task Learning (MTL). While MTL has the potential to enhance prediction accuracy through task synergies, it can also face significant hurdles due to task interference. To overcome these challenges, this study introduces a novel MTL framework, Dynamic Group-wise Spatio-Temporal Multi-Task Learning (DG-STMTL). DG-STMTL proposes a hybrid adjacency matrix generation module that combines static matrices with dynamic ones through a task-specific gating mechanism. We also introduce a group-wise GCN module to enhance the modelling capability of spatio-temporal dependencies. We conduct extensive experiments on two real-world datasets to evaluate our method. Results show that our method outperforms other state-of-the-arts, indicating its effectiveness and robustness.

Pricing Strategies for Different Accuracy Models from the Same Dataset Based on Generalized Hotelling's Law

We consider a scenario where a seller possesses a dataset $D$ and trains it into models of varying accuracies for sale in the market. Due to the reproducibility of data, the dataset can be reused to train models with different accuracies, and the training cost is independent of the sales volume. These two characteristics lead to fundamental differences between the data trading market and traditional trading markets. The introduction of different models into the market inevitably gives rise to competition. However, due to the varying accuracies of these models, traditional multi-oligopoly games are not applicable. We consider a generalized Hotelling's law, where the accuracy of the models is abstracted as distance. Buyers choose to purchase models based on a trade-off between accuracy and price, while sellers determine their pricing strategies based on the market's demand. We present two pricing strategies: static pricing strategy and dynamic pricing strategy, and we focus on the static pricing strategy. We propose static pricing mechanisms based on various market conditions and provide an example. Finally, we demonstrate that our pricing strategy remains robust in the context of incomplete information games.

Understanding the predication mechanism of deep learning through error propagation among parameters in strong lensing case

The error propagation among estimated parameters reflects the correlation among the parameters. We study the capability of machine learning of "learning" the correlation of estimated parameters. We show that machine learning can recover the relation between the uncertainties of different parameters, especially, as predicted by the error propagation formula. Gravitational lensing can be used to probe both astrophysics and cosmology. As a practical application, we show that the machine learning is able to intelligently find the error propagation among the gravitational lens parameters (effective lens mass $M_{L}$ and Einstein radius $θ_{E}$) in accordance with the theoretical formula for the singular isothermal ellipse (SIE) lens model. The relation of errors of lens mass and Einstein radius, (e.g. the ratio of standard deviations $\mathcal{F}=σ_{\hat{ M_{L}}}/ σ_{\hat{θ_{E}}}$) predicted by the deep convolution neural network are consistent with the error propagation formula of SIE lens model. As a proof-of-principle test, a toy model of linear relation with Gaussian noise is presented. We found that the predictions obtained by machine learning indeed indicate the information about the law of error propagation and the distribution of noise. Error propagation plays a crucial role in identifying the physical relation among parameters, rather than a coincidence relation, therefore we anticipate our case study on the error propagation of machine learning predictions could extend to other physical systems on searching the correlation among parameters.

Data valuation: The partial ordinal Shapley value for machine learning

Data valuation using Shapley value has emerged as a prevalent research domain in machine learning applications. However, it is a challenge to address the role of order in data cooperation as most research lacks such discussion. To tackle this problem, this paper studies the definition of the partial ordinal Shapley value by group theory in abstract algebra. Besides, since the calculation of the partial ordinal Shapley value requires exponential time, this paper also gives three algorithms for approximating the results. The Truncated Monte Carlo algorithm is derived from the classic Shapley value approximation algorithm. The Classification Monte Carlo algorithm and the Classification Truncated Monte Carlo algorithm are based on the fact that the data points in the same class provide similar information, then we can accelerate the calculation by leaving out some data points in each class.
