Distribution mismatches between the data seen at training and at application time remain a major challenge in all application areas of machine learning.

We present a variational Bayesian method of joint image reconstruction and point spread function (PSF) estimation when the PSF of the imaging device is only partially known. To solve this semi-blind deconvolution problem, prior distributions are specified for the PSF and the 3D image. Joint image reconstruction and PSF…
This paper considers the classification of linear subspaces with mismatched classifiers.

Model-based reinforcement learning (MBRL) has been shown to be a powerful framework for data-efficiently learning control of continuous tasks. Recent work in MBRL has mostly focused on using more advanced function approximators and planning schemes, with little development of the general framework. In this paper, we id…
FedZKT enables resource-constrained devices to participate in federated learning with heterogeneous models.
Supervised learning based on a deep neural network recently has achieved substantial improvement on speech enhancement. Denoising networks learn mapping from noisy speech to clean one directly, or to a spectrum mask which is the ratio between clean and noisy spectra. In either case, the network is optimized by minimizi…
Recently, there has been significant interest in linear regression in the situation where predictors and responses are not observed in matching pairs corresponding to the same statistical unit as a consequence of separate data collection and uncertainty in data integration. Mismatched pairs can considerably impact the …

Although deep neural networks are highly effective, their high computational and memory costs severely challenge their applications on portable devices.

The growing use of IoT devices in organizations has increased the number of attack vectors available to attackers due to the less secure nature of the devices.

A method for trust evaluation of devices in human-device coexistence systems.
Most edge AI focuses on prediction tasks on resource-limited edge devices while the training is done at server machines. However, retraining or customizing a model is required at edge devices as the model is becoming outdated due to environmental changes over time. To follow such a concept drift, a neural-network based…

The dictionary-aided sparse regression (SR) approach has recently emerged as a promising alternative to hyperspectral unmixing (HU) in remote sensing. By using an available spectral library as a dictionary, the SR approach identifies the underlying materials in a given hyperspectral image by selecting a small subset of…

We characterize the performance of sequential information guided sensing, Info-Greedy Sensing, when there is a mismatch between the true signal model and the assumed model, which may be a sample estimate. In particular, we consider a setup where the signal is low-rank Gaussian and the measurements are taken in the dire…
The performance of automatic speech recognition (ASR) systems can be significantly compromised by previously unseen conditions, which is typically due to a mismatch between training and testing distributions.
