• Abstract: This paper introduces and explores a new programming paradigm, Model-based Programming, designed to address the challenges inherent in applying deep learning models to real-world applications. Despite recent significant successes of deep learning models across a range of tasks, their deployment in real business scenarios remains fraught with difficulties, such as complex model training, large computational resource requirements, and integration issues with existing programming languages. To ameliorate these challenges, we propose the concept of 'Model-based Programming' and present a novel programming language - M Language, tailored to a prospective model-centered programming paradigm. M Language treats models as basic computational units, enabling developers to concentrate more on crucial tasks such as model loading, fine-tuning, evaluation, and deployment, thereby enhancing the efficiency of creating deep learning applications. We posit that this innovative programming paradigm will stimulate the extensive application and advancement of deep learning technology and provide a robust foundation for a model-driven future.

• Model Reprogramming: Resource-Efficient Cross-Domain Machine Learning [65.268245109828]
  In data-rich domains such as vision, language, and speech, deep learning prevails to deliver high-performance task-specific models. Deep learning in resource-limited domains still faces multiple challenges including (i) limited data, (ii) constrained model development cost, and (iii) lack of adequate pre-trained models for effective finetuning. Model reprogramming enables resource-efficient cross-domain machine learning by repurposing a well-developed pre-trained model from a source domain to solve tasks in a target domain without model finetuning.

• Goal-Aware Prediction: Learning to Model What Matters [105.43098326577434]
  One of the fundamental challenges in using a learned forward dynamics model is the mismatch between the objective of the learned model and that of the downstream planner or policy. We propose to direct prediction towards task relevant information, enabling the model to be aware of the current task and encouraging it to only model relevant quantities of the state space. We find that our method more effectively models the relevant parts of the scene conditioned on the goal, and as a result outperforms standard task-agnostic dynamics models and model-free reinforcement learning.
