E-commerce companies have to face abnormal sellers who sell potentially-risky products. Typically, the risk can be identified by jointly considering product content (e.g., title and image) and seller behavior. This work focuses on behavior feature extraction as behavior sequences can provide valuable clues for the risk discovery by reflecting the sellers operation habits. Traditional feature extraction techniques heavily depend on domain experts and adapt poorly to new tasks. In this paper, we propose a self-supervised method InfoBehavior to automatically extract meaningful representations from ultra-long raw behavior sequences instead of the costly feature selection procedure. InfoBehavior utilizes Bidirectional Transformer as feature encoder due to its excellent capability in modeling long-term dependency. However, it is intractable for commodity GPUs because the time and memory required by Transformer grow quadratically with the increase of sequence length. Thus, we propose a hierarchical grouping strategy to aggregate ultra-long raw behavior sequences to length-processable high-level embedding sequences. Moreover, we introduce two types of pretext tasks. Sequence-related pretext task defines a contrastive-based training objective to correctly select the masked-out coarse-grained/fine-grained behavior sequences against other distractor behavior sequences; Domain-related pretext task designs a classification training objective to correctly predict the domain-specific statistical results of anomalous behavior. We show that behavior representations from the pre-trained InfoBehavior can be directly used or integrated with features from other side information to support a wide range of downstream tasks. Experimental results demonstrate that InfoBehavior significantly improves the performance of Product Risk Management and Intellectual Property Protection.

Graph neural networks~(GNNs) apply deep learning techniques to graph-structured data and have achieved promising performance in graph representation learning. However, existing GNNs rely heavily on enough labels or well-designed negative samples. To address these issues, we propose a new self-supervised graph representation method: deep graph bootstrapping~(DGB). DGB consists of two neural networks: online and target networks, and the input of them are different augmented views of the initial graph. The online network is trained to predict the target network while the target network is updated with a slow-moving average of the online network, which means the online and target networks can learn from each other. As a result, the proposed DGB can learn graph representation without negative examples in an unsupervised manner. In addition, we summarize three kinds of augmentation methods for graph-structured data and apply them to the DGB. Experiments on the benchmark datasets show the DGB performs better than the current state-of-the-art methods and how the augmentation methods affect the performances.
Timely detection of horse pain is important for equine welfare. Horses express pain through their facial and body behavior, but may hide signs of pain from unfamiliar human observers. In addition, collecting visual data with detailed annotation of ho rse behavior and pain state is both cumbersome and not scalable. Consequently, a pragmatic equine pain classification system would use video of the unobserved horse and weak labels. This paper proposes such a method for equine pain classification by using multi-view surveillance video footage of unobserved horses with induced orthopaedic pain, with temporally sparse video level pain labels. To ensure that pain is learned from horse body language alone, we first train a self-supervised generative model to disentangle horse pose from its appearance and background before using the disentangled horse pose latent representation for pain classification. To make best use of the pain labels, we develop a novel loss that formulates pain classification as a multi-instance learning problem. Our method achieves pain classification accuracy better than human expert performance with 60% accuracy. The learned latent horse pose representation is shown to be viewpoint covariant, and disentangled from horse appearance. Qualitative analysis of pain classified segments shows correspondence between the pain symptoms identified by our model, and equine pain scales used in veterinary practice.

We present the Topology Transformation Equivariant Representation learning, a general paradigm of self-supervised learning for node representations of graph data to enable the wide applicability of Graph Convolutional Neural Networks (GCNNs). We form alize the proposed model from an information-theoretic perspective, by maximizing the mutual information between topology transformations and node representations before and after the transformations. We derive that maximizing such mutual information can be relaxed to minimizing the cross entropy between the applied topology transformation and its estimation from node representations. In particular, we seek to sample a subset of node pairs from the original graph and flip the edge connectivity between each pair to transform the graph topology. Then, we self-train a representation encoder to learn node representations by reconstructing the topology transformations from the feature representations of the original and transformed graphs. In experiments, we apply the proposed model to the downstream node and graph classification tasks, and results show that the proposed method outperforms the state-of-the-art unsupervised approaches.
Spoken question answering (SQA) requires fine-grained understanding of both spoken documents and questions for the optimal answer prediction. In this paper, we propose novel training schemes for spoken question answering with a self-supervised traini ng stage and a contrastive representation learning stage. In the self-supervised stage, we propose three auxiliary self-supervised tasks, including utterance restoration, utterance insertion, and question discrimination, and jointly train the model to capture consistency and coherence among speech documents without any additional data or annotations. We then propose to learn noise-invariant utterance representations in a contrastive objective by adopting multiple augmentation strategies, including span deletion and span substitution. Besides, we design a Temporal-Alignment attention to semantically align the speech-text clues in the learned common space and benefit the SQA tasks. By this means, the training schemes can more effectively guide the generation model to predict more proper answers. Experimental results show that our model achieves state-of-the-art results on three SQA benchmarks.

Self-Supervised Learning (SSL) using huge unlabeled data has been successfully explored for image and natural language processing. Recent works also investigated SSL from speech. They were notably successful to improve performance on downstream tasks such as automatic speech recognition (ASR). While these works suggest it is possible to reduce dependence on labeled data for building efficient speech systems, their evaluation was mostly made on ASR and using multiple and heterogeneous experimental settings (most of them for English). This questions the objective comparison of SSL approaches and the evaluation of their impact on building speech systems. In this paper, we propose LeBenchmark: a reproducible framework for assessing SSL from speech. It not only includes ASR (high and low resource) tasks but also spoken language understanding, speech translation and emotion recognition. We also focus on speech technologies in a language different than English: French. SSL models of different sizes are trained from carefully sourced and documented datasets. Experiments show that SSL is beneficial for most but not all tasks which confirms the need for exhaustive and reliable benchmarks to evaluate its real impact. LeBenchmark is shared with the scientific community for reproducible research in SSL from speech.
