9 results for FTL

The scarcity of data and isolated data islands encourage different organizations to share data with each other to train machine learning models. However, there are increasing concerns on the problems of data privacy and security, which urges people to seek a solution like Federated Transfer Learning (FTL) to share trai…

Follow-the-Leader (FTL) is an intuitive sequential prediction strategy that guarantees constant regret in the stochastic setting, but has terrible performance for worst-case data. Other hedging strategies have better worst-case guarantees but may perform much worse than FTL if the data are not maximally adversarial. We…

Improved drug-protein interaction prediction using FTL method.

problem Predicting drug-protein interactions from noisy data with uncertain labels.
method Filtered Transfer Learning (FTL) method that fine-tunes a deep neural network across multiple tiers of data confidence.
result FTL method outperforms deep neural networks trained on single confidence ranges.

In this paper we first present the construction of the new 2-variable classical link invariants arising from the Yokonuma-Hecke algebras Yd,n(q){\rm Y}_{d,n}(q), which are not topologically equivalent to the Homflypt polynomial. We then present the algebra FTLd,n(q){\rm FTL}_{d,n}(q) which is the appropriate Temperley-Lieb analogu…

Machine learning relies on the availability of a vast amount of data for training. However, in reality, most data are scattered across different organizations and cannot be easily integrated under many legal and practical constraints. In this paper, we introduce a new technique and framework, known as federated transfe…

Sample efficiency is critical in solving real-world reinforcement learning problems, where agent-environment interactions can be costly. Imitation learning from expert advice has proved to be an effective strategy for reducing the number of interactions required to train a policy. Online imitation learning, which inter…
