Similar to convolution neural networks, recurrent neural networks (RNNs) typically suffer from over-parameterization.

This paper proposes a quantization approach that increases…
Variance-reduced algorithms, although achieve great theoretical performance, can run slowly in practice due to the periodic gradient estimation with a large batch of data.

Tensor factorization has become an increasingly popular approach to knowledge graph completion(KGC), which is the task of automatically predicting missing facts in a knowledge graph. However, even with a simple model like CANDECOMP/PARAFAC(CP) tensor decomposition, KGC on existing knowledge graphs is impractical in res…
Recently it has been shown that the step sizes of a family of variance reduced gradient methods called the JacSketch methods depend on the expected smoothness constant.

Models often need to be constrained to a certain size for them to be considered interpretable. For example, a decision tree of depth 5 is much easier to understand than one of depth 50. Limiting model size, however, often reduces accuracy. We suggest a practical technique that minimizes this trade-off between interpret…

How does missing data affect our ability to learn signal structures? It has been shown that learning signal structure in terms of principal components is dependent on the ratio of sample size and dimensionality and that a critical number of observations is needed before learning starts (Biehl and Mietzner, 1993). Here …

Despite the success of deep neural networks (DNNs), state-of-the-art models are too large to deploy on low-resource devices or common server configurations in which multiple models are held in memory.
