Progressive Neural Network Learning is a class of algorithms that incrementally construct the network's topology and optimize its parameters based on the training data. While this approach exempts the users from the manual task of designing and validating multiple network topologies, it often requires an enormous numbe…

In this paper, we investigate a new form of automated curriculum learning based on adaptive selection of accuracy requirements, called accuracy-based curriculum learning.

Scalable Bayesian sampling is playing an important role in modern machine learning, especially in the fast-developed unsupervised-(deep)-learning models.

PTSD improves neural samplers by combining diffusion models and PT, enhancing efficiency.
Despite the fact that nonlinear subspace learning techniques (e.g. manifold learning) have successfully applied to data representation, there is still room for improvement in explainability (explicit mapping), generalization (out-of-samples), and cost-effectiveness (linearization). To this end, a novel linearized subsp…
A plethora of recent research has focused on improving the memory footprint and inference speed of deep networks by reducing the complexity of (i) numerical representations (for example, by deterministic or stochastic quantization) and (ii) arithmetic operations (for example, by binarization of weights). We propose a s…
Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) have become exceedingly popular in a wide range of data-driven research fields, due in part to their success in image generation. Their ability to generate new samples, often from only a small amount of input data, makes them an exciting research tool in areas with limited data re…
Adversarial images are designed to mislead deep neural networks (DNNs), attracting great attention in recent years. Although several defense strategies achieved encouraging robustness against adversarial samples, most of them fail to improve the robustness on common corruptions such as noise, blur, and weather/digital …
Learning from many real-world datasets is limited by a problem called the class imbalance problem. A dataset is imbalanced when one class (the majority class) has significantly more samples than the other class (the minority class). Such datasets cause typical machine learning algorithms to perform poorly on the classi…

Purpose: Machine learning is broadly used for clinical data analysis. Before training a model, a machine learning algorithm must be selected. Also, the values of one or more model parameters termed hyper-parameters must be set. Selecting algorithms and hyper-parameter values requires advanced machine learning knowledge…

Disease progression models are instrumental in predicting individual-level health trajectories and understanding disease dynamics.

New approach ties loss curvature to model performance in deep learning.
We introduce a novel generative autoencoder network model that learns to encode and reconstruct images with high quality and resolution, and supports smooth random sampling from the latent space of the encoder. Generative adversarial networks (GANs) are known for their ability to simulate random high-quality images, bu…
In this article, we investigate when the set of primitive geodesic lengths on a Riemannian manifold have arbitrarily long arithmetic progressions. We prove that in the space of negatively curved metrics, a metric having such arithmetic progressions is quite rare. We introduce almost arithmetic progressions, a coarsific…
The standard L-BFGS method relies on gradient approximations that are not dominated by noise, so that search directions are descent directions, the line search is reliable, and quasi-Newton updating yields useful quadratic models of the objective function. All of this appears to call for a full batch approach, but sinc…

Early recognition of abnormal rhythms in ECG signals is crucial for monitoring and diagnosing patients' cardiac conditions, increasing the success rate of the treatment.

The extension of image generation to video generation turns out to be a very difficult task, since the temporal dimension of videos introduces an extra challenge during the generation process. Besides, due to the limitation of memory and training stability, the generation becomes increasingly challenging with the incre…

We introduce the Metropolis-Hastings generative adversarial network (MH-GAN), which combines aspects of Markov chain Monte Carlo and GANs. The MH-GAN draws samples from the distribution implicitly defined by a GAN's discriminator-generator pair, as opposed to standard GANs which draw samples from the distribution defin…

The novel training pro…
