The modeling of time-varying graph signals as stationary time-vertex stochastic processes permits the inference of missing signal values by efficiently employing the correlation patterns of the process across different graph nodes and time instants. In this study, we propose an algorithm for computing graph autoregressive moving average (graph ARMA) processes based on learning the joint time-vertex power spectral density of the process from its incomplete realizations for the task of signal interpolation. 

Algorithmic solutions for multi-object tracking (MOT) are a key enabler for applications in autonomous navigation and applied ocean sciences. State-of-the-art MOT methods fully rely on a statistical model and typically use preprocessed sensor data as measurements. In particular, measurements are produced by a detector that extracts potential object locations from the raw sensor data collected at discrete time steps. This preparatory processing step reduces data flow and computational complexity but may result in a loss of information. 

This work explores the challenging problems of nonlinear dynamics, nonaffine structures, heterogeneous properties, and deception attack together and proposes a novel distributed model-free adaptive predictive control (DMFAPC) for multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) multi-agent systems (MASs). A dynamic linearization method is introduced to address the nonlinear heterogeneous dynamics which is transformed as the unknown parameters in the obtained linear data model.

The Random Dot Product Graph (RDPG) is a generative model for relational data, where nodes are represented via latent vectors in low-dimensional Euclidean space. RDPGs crucially postulate that edge formation probabilities are given by the dot product of the corresponding latent positions. Accordingly, the embedding task of estimating these vectors from an observed graph is typically posed as a low-rank matrix factorization problem.

Pedestrian attribute recognition (PAR) aims to generate a structured description of pedestrians and plays an important role in surveillance. Current work focusing on 2D images can achieve decent performance when there is no variation in the captured pedestrian orientation. However, the performance of these works cannot be maintained in scenarios when the orientation of pedestrians is ignored. 

Domain generalization aims to reduce the vulnerability of deep neural networks in the out-of-domain distribution scenario. With the recent and increasing data privacy concerns, federated domain generalization, where multiple domains are distributed on different local clients, has become an important research problem and brings new challenges for learning domain-invariant information from separated domains. 

Remote Photoplethysmography (rPPG) has been attracting increasing attention due to its potential in a wide range of application scenarios such as physical training, clinical monitoring, and face anti-spoofing. On top of conventional solutions, deep-learning approach starts to dominate in rPPG estimation and achieves top-level performance.

Graph Convolutional Networks (GCN) which typically follows a neural message passing framework to model dependencies among skeletal joints has achieved high success in skeleton-based human motion prediction task. Nevertheless, how to construct a graph from a skeleton sequence and how to perform message passing on the graph are still open problems, which severely affect the performance of GCN.
