• Abstract: Building on the standard theory of process algebra with priorities, we identify a new scheduling mechanism, called "constructive reduction" which is designed to capture the essence of synchronous programming. The distinctive property of this evaluation strategy is to achieve determinacy-by-construction for multi-cast concurrent communication with shared memory. In the technical setting of CCS extended by clocks and priorities, we prove for a large class of "coherent" processes a confluence property for constructive reductions. We show that under some restrictions, called "pivotability", coherence is preserved by the operators of prefix, summation, parallel composition, restriction and hiding. Since this permits memory and sharing, we are able to cover a strictly larger class of processes compared to those in Milner's classical confluence theory for CCS without priorities.

  We propose a lightweight yet generalizable approach termed Compositional Kronecker Context Optimization (CK-CoOp) Technically, the prompt's context words in CK-CoOp are learnable vectors, which are crafted by linearly combining base vectors sourced from a dictionary. CK-CoOp achieves state-of-the-art performance under base-to-new, domain and cross-task generalization evaluation.

• Hyperparameters in Continual Learning: A Reality Check [53.30082523545212]
  Continual learning (CL) aims to train a model on a sequence of tasks while balancing the trade-off between plasticity (learning new tasks) and stability (retaining prior knowledge) The dominantly adopted conventional evaluation protocol for CL algorithms selects the best hyper parameters in a given scenario and then evaluates the algorithms in the same scenario. This protocol has significant shortcomings: it overestimates the CL capacity of algorithms and relies on unrealistic hyper parameter tuning. We argue that the evaluation of CL algorithms should focus on assessing the generalizability of their CL capacity to unseen scenarios.
