The speaker, among others, recognizes the importance of studying underlying entities and relations beyond visual appearance, following an Active Perception paradigm. This talk will present the speaker's efforts over the last decade, ranging from 1) reasoning beyond appearance for vision and language tasks (VQA, captioning, T2I, etc.), and addressing their evaluation misalignment, through 2) reasoning about implicit properties, to 3) their roles in a Robotic visual concept learning framework. The talk will also feature the Active Perception Group (APG)'s projects addressing emerging challenges of the nation in automated mobility and intelligent transportation domains, at the ASU School of Computing and Augmented Intelligence (SCAI).</div><div><br></div><div><a href="https://yezhouyang.engineering.asu.edu/" rel="nofollow external" class="bo"><strong>Yezhou (YZ) Yang</strong></a> is an Associate Professor and a Fulton Entrepreneurial Professor in the School of Computing and Augmented Intelligence (SCAI) at Arizona State University. He founded and directs the ASU Active Perception Group, and currently serves as the topic lead (situation awareness) at the Institute of Automated Mobility, Arizona Commerce Authority. He is also a thrust lead (AVAI) at Advanced Communications Technologies (ACT, a Science and Technology Center under the New Economy Initiative, Arizona). His work includes exploring visual primitives and representation learning in visual (and language) understanding, grounding them by natural language and high-level reasoning over the primitives for intelligent systems, secure/robust AI, and V&amp;L model evaluation alignment. Yang is a recipient of the Qualcomm Innovation Fellowship 2011, the NSF CAREER award 2018, and the Amazon AWS Machine Learning Research Award 2019. He received his Ph.D. from the University of Maryland at College Park, and B.E. from Zhejiang University, China.

<Tagline>Scaling &amp; Learning (Fair) Graph Representations</Tagline>
<Body>
<![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content"><img src="https://www.csee.umbc.edu/wp-content/uploads/sites/659/2024/01/Parthasarathy.png" style="max-width: 100%; height: auto;"><div><br></div><div><h5><strong>Towards Democratizing AI: Scaling &amp; Learning (Fair) Graph Representations in an Implementation Agnostic Fashion</strong></h5><h5><span><strong>12-1 pm ET, Tue. 30 January 2024, ITE 325b</strong></span></h5><h5>Srinivasan Parthasarathy, Ohio State University</h5><div><br></div><p><span>Recently there has been a surge of interest in designing graph embedding methods. Few, if any, can scale to a large-sized graph with millions of nodes due to both computational complexity and memory requirements. In this talk, I will present an approach to redress this limitation by introducing the MultI-Level Embedding (MILE) framework -- a generic methodology allowing con-temporary graph embedding methods to scale to large graphs. MILE repeatedly coarsens the graph into smaller ones using a hybrid matching technique to maintain the backbone structure of the graph. It then applies existing embedding methods on the coarsest graph and refines the embeddings to the original graph through a graph convolution neural network that it learns. Time permitting, I will then describe one of several natural extensions to MILE  -  in a distributed setting (DistMILE) to further improve the scalability of graph embedding or mechanisms -  to learn fair graph representations (FairMILE).  </span></p><p><span>The proposed MILE framework and variants (DistMILE, FairMILE), are agnostic to the underlying graph embedding techniques and can be applied to many existing graph embedding methods without modifying them and is agnostic to their implementation language. Experimental results on five large-scale datasets demonstrate that MILE significantly boosts the speed (order of magnitude) of graph embedding while generating embeddings of better quality, for the task of node classification. MILE can comfortably scale to a graph with 9 million nodes and 40 million edges, on which existing methods run out of memory or take too long to compute on a modern workstation. Our experiments demonstrate that DistMILE learns representations of similar quality with respect to other baselines while reducing the time of learning embeddings even further (up to 40 x speedup over MILE). FairMILE similarly learns fair representations of the data while reducing the time of learning embeddings.</span></p><div><span>Joint work with Jionqian Liang (Google Brain), S.
