• Abstract: Microservices have been recognized for over a decade. They reshaped system design enabling decentralization and independence of development teams working on particular microservices. While loosely coupled microservices are desired, it is inevitable for dependencies to arise. However, these dependencies often go unnoticed by development teams. As the system evolves, making changes to one microservice may trigger a ripple effect, necessitating adjustments in dependent microservices and increasing maintenance and operational efforts. Tracking different types of dependencies across microservices becomes crucial in anticipating the consequences of development team changes. This paper introduces the Endpoint Dependency Matrix (EDM) and Data Dependency Matrix (DDM) as tools to address this challenge. We present an automated approach for tracking these dependencies and demonstrate their extraction through a case study.

• Decentralized Online Learning in Task Assignment Games for Mobile Crowdsensing [55.07662765269297]
  A mobile crowdsensing platform (MCSP) sequentially publishes sensing tasks to the available mobile units (MUs) that signal their willingness to participate in a task by sending sensing offers back to the MCSP. A stable task assignment must address two challenges: the MCSP's and MUs' conflicting goals, and the uncertainty about the MUs' required efforts and preferences. To overcome these challenges a novel decentralized approach combining matching theory and online learning, called collision-avoidance multi-armed bandit with strategic free sensing (CA-MAB-SFS) is proposed.

  Computer vision applications rely on learning-based perception modules parameterized with neural networks for tasks like object detection. These modules frequently have low expected error overall but high error on atypical groups of data due to biases inherent in the training process. Our main contribution is a pseudo-automatic method to discover such groups in foresight by performing causal interventions on simulated scenes.

• Reducing Catastrophic Forgetting in Self Organizing Maps with Internally-Induced Generative Replay [67.50637511633212]
  A lifelong learning agent is able to continually learn from potentially infinite streams of pattern sensory data. One major historic difficulty in building agents that adapt is that neural systems struggle to retain previously-acquired knowledge when learning from new samples. This problem is known as catastrophic forgetting (interference) and remains an unsolved problem in the domain of machine learning to this day.
