Communities in social networks or graphs are sets of well-connected, overlapping vertices.

In this work, we provide three contributions. First, we show t…

Recently, generating adversarial examples has become an important means of measuring robustness of a deep learning model. Adversarial examples help us identify the susceptibilities of the model and further counter those vulnerabilities by applying adversarial training techniques. In natural language domain, small pertu…

Log messages are now widely used in software systems. They are important for classification as millions of logs are generated each day. Most logs are unstructured which makes classification a challenge. In this paper, Deep Learning (DL) methods called Auto-LSTM, Auto-BLSTM and Auto-GRU are developed for anomaly detecti…

This paper presents a novel model for multimodal learning based on gated neural networks.

Th…

Dropout and other feature noising schemes control overfitting by artificially corrupting the training data. For generalized linear models, dropout performs a form of adaptive regularization. Using this viewpoint, we show that the dropout regularizer is first-order equivalent to an L2 regularizer applied after scaling t…

Dataset pruning is the process of removing sub-optimal tuples from a dataset to improve the learning of a machine learning model. In this paper, we compared the performance of different algorithms, first on an unpruned dataset and then on an iteratively pruned dataset. The goal was to understand whether an algorithm (s…

The inaccuracy of neural network models on inputs that do not stem from the training data distribution is both problematic and at times unrecognized. Model uncertainty estimation can address this issue, where uncertainty estimates are often based on the variation in predictions produced by a diverse ensemble of models …

We present a theoretically grounded approach to train deep neural networks, including recurrent networks, subject to class-dependent label noise. We propose two procedures for loss correction that are agnostic to both application domain and network architecture. They simply amount to at most a matrix inversion and mult…

While several methods for predicting uncertainty on deep networks have been recently proposed, they do not readily translate to large and complex datasets.

Most classifiers operate by selecting the maximum of an estimate of the conditional distribution $p(y|x)$ where $x$ stands for the features of the instance to be classified and $y$ denotes its label. This often results in a {\em hubristic bias}: overconfidence in the assignment of a definite label. Usually, the observa…

Generating high-quality and interpretable adversarial examples in the text domain is a much more daunting task than it is in the image domain. This is due partly to the discrete nature of text, partly to the problem of ensuring that the adversarial examples are still probable and interpretable, and partly to the proble…

Machine learning models trained on data from the outside world can be corrupted by data poisoning attacks that inject malicious points into the models' training sets. A common defense against these attacks is data sanitization: first filter out anomalous training points before training the model. In this paper, we deve…
