Path planning underpins various applications such as transportation, logistics, and robotics. Conventionally, path planning is formulated with explicit optimization objectives such as distance or time. However, real-world data reveals that user intentions are hard-to-model, suggesting a need for data-driven path planning that implicitly incorporates the complex user intentions. In this paper, we propose GDP, a diffusion-based model for end-to-end data-driven path planning. It effectively learns path patterns via a novel diffusion process that incorporates constraints from road networks, and plans paths as conditional path generation given the origin and destination as prior evidence. GDP is the first solution that bypasses the traditional search-based frameworks, a long-standing performance bottleneck in path planning. We validate the efficacy of GDP on two real-world datasets. Our GDP beats strong baselines by 14.2% ~ 43.5% and achieves state-of-the-art performances.

Federated Latent Dirichlet Allocation: A Local Differential Privacy Based Framework

Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA) is a widely adopted topic model for industrial-grade text mining applications. However, its performance heavily relies on the collection of large amount of text data from users’ everyday life for model training. Such data collection risks severe privacy leakage if the data collector is untrustworthy. To protect text data privacy while allowing accurate model training, we investigate federated learning of LDA models. That is, the model is collaboratively trained between an untrustworthy data collector and multiple users, where raw text data of each user are stored locally and not uploaded to the data collector. To this end, we propose FedLDA, a local differential privacy (LDP) based framework for federated learning of LDA models. Central in FedLDA is a novel LDP mechanism called Random Response with Priori (RRP), which provides theoretical guarantees on both data privacy and model accuracy. We also design techniques to reduce the communication cost between the data collector and the users during model training. Extensive experiments on three open datasets veriﬁed the effectiveness of our solution.
