๐Ÿ‘จโ€๐ŸŽ“ About Me

I was graduated from Shantou University with distinction (Rank 2/133, GPA 4.06/5.0) in July 2021 (Supervisor: Dr. Jianlong Xu). Yuhui Li is an graduate student in Computer Science and Electronic Engineering Department at Hunan University (Supervisor: Dr. Wei Liang).

I have a broad research interest in network measurement, data mining, service computing, and deep learning. I have published several papers at the top computer conferences/journals such as IEEE ICME, IEEE INFOCOM, IEEE TC and IEEE TITS.

LEFT: Efficient Large Entries Retrieval in Network Monitoring
Yuhui Li, Wei Liang, Kun Xie, Naixue Xiong, Kuan-Ching Li

Paper Summary
  • My Roles : Idea, Code&Experiments, Writing
  • Abstract : We observe that neural tensor completions (NTCs) usually bring better data recovery accuracy and recall performance under brute force searching. However, existing methods can not apply on NTCs and thus, one can not benefit from its better recall performance. This paper introduces LEFT, a differentiable tree-structured indexing model for efficient retrieval of large entries in network-wide monitoring data. LEFT leverages a max-heap tree and the beam search algorithm to determine the positions of top-K entries. Experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness and efficiency of LEFT, outperforming other retrieval baselines and achieving high scalability.

LightNestle: Quick and Accurate Neural Sequential Tensor Completion via Meta Learning
Yuhui Li, Wei Liang, Kun Xie, Dafang Zhang, Songyou Xie, Kuan-Ching Li

Pytorch Implementation PDF Download

Paper Summary
  • My Roles : Idea, Experiments, Writing
  • Abstract : For continous network measurement, the tensor is growing. When new data arrives, previous methods can not reach a perfect balance between accuracy and fast recovery. We are the first team to introduce meta-learning methods in tensor completion. We achieve significant improvement on both accuracy and training time.

ResNMMF: Real-Time Event-based Streaming Network Monitoring Data Recovery
Yuhui Li, Wei Liang, Kun Xie, Dafang Zhang, Kuan-Ching Li

Paper Summary
  • My Roles : Idea, Experiments, Writing
  • Abstract : Existing methods fail to satisfy the requirements of real-time recovery. We propose ResNMMF that achieves ultra-low latency data recovery in network measurement data streams as we process online data as streaming events. In addition, Stream2Batch is proposed to improve training and serving throughput. Extensive experiments show that ResNMMF achieves highly competitive accuracy under anytime inference settings.

LiteTC: Simplifying Neural Tensor Completion via Knowledge Distillation
Yuhui Li, Wei Liang, Kun Xie, Songyou Xie, Dafang Zhang, Kuan-Ching Li

Paper Summary
  • My Roles : Idea, Experiments, Writing
  • Abstract : The neural tensor completions adopted in network data recovery suffer from inefficient inference and difficulty in data retrieval. We propose LiteTC โ€” a knowledge distillation framework that convert arbitrary advance model into a linear dot-product model, achieving both fast inference and retrieval friendly. Experiments demonstrate the conversion only suffer from reasonable recovery accuracy.

QoS Prediction and Adversarial Attack Protection for Distributed Services Under DLaaS
Wei Liang, Yuhui Li, Jianlong Xu, Zheng Qin, Dafang Zhang, Kuan-Ching Li

Paper Summary
  • My Roles : Idea, Experiments, Writing
  • Abstract : We show that the service recommendation system is suffering from prediction without confidence metric, cold start, and adversial vulnerability issues. We propose EEPrNN to address them and achieve confidence-aware, cold start tolerating and adversial robust service recommendation.

Inductive Subgraph Pattern Aware Model for Sparse QoS Prediction
Jianlong Xu, Zhiyu Xia, Yuhui Li, Zhidan Liu

Paper Summary
  • My Roles : Idea, Experiments, Editing
  • Abstract : We propose a novel subgraph-pattern GNN to inductively extract the rating signal from matrix-induced bipartite graph and enhance it by context-guided sampling. We demonstrate that our model largely outperforms previous methods when in high data sparsity. Our model achieve extrapolation on 25% unseen users/services with just 10% prediction accuracy loss.

QoSEraser: A Data Erasable Framework for Web Service QoS Prediction
Yuxiang Zeng, Yuhui Li, Zhiyu Xia, Zibo Du, Jialin Wang, Ruimin Lian, Jianlong Xu

Paper Summary
  • My Roles : Idea, Editing
  • Abstract : It is essential to provide users with the right to erasure regarding their own data, even if such data has been used to train a model, thanks to the GDPR. We propose a framework for QoS prediction, including collaborative signal preservation design and attentive embedding aggregation modules, to support fast retraining and mitigate the performance degradation.

Paper Summary
  • My Roles : Idea, Experiments, Writing
