Gaussian processes struggle with compositional functions, but deep Gaussian processes can outperform.
problem Gaussian process regression struggles with compositional functions.
method We study information-theoretic lower bounds for posterior contraction rates in Gaussian process regression for a continuous regression model.
result Posterior based on any mean-zero Gaussian process can only recover the truth at a rate strictly slower than the minimax rate for generalized additive functions.
Consider the multivariate nonparametric regression model. It is shown that estimators based on sparsely connected deep neural networks with ReLU activation function and properly chosen network architecture achieve the minimax rates of convergence (up to logn-factors) under a general composition assumption on the re…
Materials discovery is crucial for making scientific advances in many domains. Collections of data from experiments and first-principle computations have spurred interest in applying machine learning methods to create predictive models capable of mapping from composition and crystal structures to materials properties. …

method Integrates ODE-based RKHS Fourier features into DGPs using convolution operations for adaptive amplitude and phase modulation. Uses a doubly stochastic variational inference framework.
result Improved predictive performance across various regression tasks.
Compositional data have two unique characteristics compared to typical multivariate data: the observed values are nonnegative and their summand is exactly one. To reflect these characteristics, a specific regularized regression model with linear constraints is commonly used. However, linear constraints incur additional…
Generalization error defines the discriminability and the representation power of a deep model. In this work, we claim that feature space design using deep compositional function plays a significant role in generalization along with explicit and implicit regularizations. Our claims are being established with several im…

result The model effectively captures nonlinear behavior in real-world multivariate time series data and achieves comparable performance to other models on benchmark tasks.
We show that any smooth bi-Lipschitz h can be represented exactly as a composition hm∘...∘h1 of functions h1,...,hm that are close to the identity in the sense that each (hi−Id) is Lipschitz, and the Lipschitz constant decreases inversely with the number m of functions com…
This paper examines how noise affects deep neural networks and improves their performance.
problem The impact of noise on the stability of deep ReLU neural networks for nonparametric regression.
method Investigates the optimal rate of convergence for deep ReLU neural networks under Huber loss, considering the p-th moment of noise and the smoothness of the function.
result The optimal rate of convergence cannot be achieved by ordinary least squares but can be by Huber loss with a properly chosen parameter.
Standard methods in deep learning for natural language processing fail to capture the compositional structure of human language that allows for systematic generalization outside of the training distribution. However, human learners readily generalize in this way, e.g. by applying known grammatical rules to novel words.…
Recent findings in multi-agent deep learning systems point towards the emergence of compositional languages. These claims are often made without exact analysis or testing of the language. In this work, we analyze the emergent language resulting from two different cooperative multi-agent game with more exact measures fo…
In this paper, we extend the geometric descent method recently proposed by Bubeck, Lee and Singh to tackle nonsmooth and strongly convex composite problems. We prove that our proposed algorithm, dubbed geometric proximal gradient method (GeoPG), converges with a linear rate (1−1/κ) and thus achieves the optimal …
We consider the minimization of composite objective functions composed of the expectation of quadratic functions and an arbitrary convex function. We study the stochastic dual averaging algorithm with a constant step-size, showing that it leads to a convergence rate of O(1/n) without strong convexity assumptions. This …
We propose novel deep learning based chemometric data analysis technique. We trained L2 regularized sparse autoencoder end-to-end for reducing the size of the feature vector to handle the classic problem of the curse of dimensionality in chemometric data analysis. We introduce a novel technique of automatic selection o…
