Training Autoencoders by Alternating Minimization
Under review as a conference paper at ICLR 2018 TRAINING AUTOENCODERS BY ALTERNATING MINI- MIZATION Anonymous authors Paper under double-blind review ABSTRACT We present DANTE, a novel method for training neural networks, in particular autoencoders, using the alternating minimization principle. DANTE provides a distinct perspective in lieu of traditional gradient-based backpropagation techniques commonly used to train deep networks. It utilizes an adaptation of quasi-convex optimization techniques to cast autoencoder training as a bi-quasi-convex optimiza- tion problem. We show that for autoencoder configurations with both differentiable (e.g. sigmoid) and non-differentiable (e.g. ReLU) activation functions, we can perform the alternations very effectively. DANTE effortlessly extends to networks with multiple hidden layers and varying network configurations. In experiments on standard datasets, autoencoders trained using the proposed method were found to be very promising and competitive to traditional backpropagation techniques, both in terms of quality of solution, as well as training speed. 1 INTRODUCTION For much of the recent march of deep learning, gradient-based backpropagation methods, e.g. Stochastic Gradient Descent (SGD) and its variants, have been the mainstay of practitioners. The use of these methods, especially on vast amounts of data, has led to unprecedented progress in several areas of artificial intelligence. On one hand, the intense focus on these techniques has led to an intimate understanding of hardware requirements and code optimizations needed to execute these routines on large datasets in a scalable manner. Today, myriad off-the-shelf and highly optimized packages exist that can churn reasonably large datasets on GPU architectures with relatively mild human involvement and little bootstrap effort. -
ML-Based Interactive Data Visualization System for Diversity and Fairness Issues 1
Jusub Kim : ML-based Interactive Data Visualization System for Diversity and Fairness Issues 1 https://doi.org/10.5392/IJoC.2019.15.4.001 ML-based Interactive Data Visualization System for Diversity and Fairness Issues Sey Min Department of Art & Technology Sogang University, Seoul, Republic of Korea Jusub Kim Department of Art & Technology Sogang University, Seoul, Republic of Korea ABSTRACT As the recent developments of artificial intelligence, particularly machine-learning, impact every aspect of society, they are also increasingly influencing creative fields manifested as new artistic tools and inspirational sources. However, as more artists integrate the technology into their creative works, the issues of diversity and fairness are also emerging in the AI-based creative practice. The data dependency of machine-learning algorithms can amplify the social injustice existing in the real world. In this paper, we present an interactive visualization system for raising the awareness of the diversity and fairness issues. Rather than resorting to education, campaign, or laws on those issues, we have developed a web & ML-based interactive data visualization system. By providing the interactive visual experience on the issues in interesting ways as the form of web content which anyone can access from anywhere, we strive to raise the public awareness of the issues and alleviate the important ethical problems. In this paper, we present the process of developing the ML-based interactive visualization system and discuss the results of this project. The proposed approach can be applied to other areas requiring attention to the issues. Key words: AI Art, Machine Learning, Data Visualization, Diversity, Fairness, Inclusiveness. -
Q-Learning in Continuous State and Action Spaces
-Learning in Continuous Q State and Action Spaces Chris Gaskett, David Wettergreen, and Alexander Zelinsky Robotic Systems Laboratory Department of Systems Engineering Research School of Information Sciences and Engineering The Australian National University Canberra, ACT 0200 Australia [cg dsw alex]@syseng.anu.edu.au j j Abstract. -learning can be used to learn a control policy that max- imises a scalarQ reward through interaction with the environment. - learning is commonly applied to problems with discrete states and ac-Q tions. We describe a method suitable for control tasks which require con- tinuous actions, in response to continuous states. The system consists of a neural network coupled with a novel interpolator. Simulation results are presented for a non-holonomic control task. Advantage Learning, a variation of -learning, is shown enhance learning speed and reliability for this task.Q 1 Introduction Reinforcement learning systems learn by trial-and-error which actions are most valuable in which situations (states) [1]. Feedback is provided in the form of a scalar reward signal which may be delayed. The reward signal is defined in relation to the task to be achieved; reward is given when the system is successfully achieving the task. The value is updated incrementally with experience and is defined as a discounted sum of expected future reward. The learning systems choice of actions in response to states is called its policy. Reinforcement learning lies between the extremes of supervised learning, where the policy is taught by an expert, and unsupervised learning, where no feedback is given and the task is to find structure in data. -

Soft Gradient Boosting Machine Ji Feng1;2, Yi-Xuan Xu1;3, Yuan Jiang3, Zhi-Hua Zhou3 [email protected], fxuyx, jiangy, [email protected] 1Sinovation Ventures AI Institute 2Baiont Technology 3National Key Laboratory for Novel Software Technology, Nanjing University, Nanjing 210093, China Abstract Gradient Boosting Machine has proven to be one successful function approximator and has been widely used in a variety of areas. However, since the training procedure of each base learner has to take the sequential order, it is infeasible to parallelize the training process among base learners for speed-up. In addition, under online or incremental learning settings, GBMs achieved sub-optimal performance due to the fact that the previously trained base learners can not adapt with the environment once trained. In this work, we propose the soft Gradient Boosting Machine (sGBM) by wiring multiple differentiable base learners together, by injecting both local and global objectives inspired from gradient boosting, all base learners can then be jointly optimized with linear speed-up. When using differentiable soft decision trees as base learner, such device can be regarded as an alternative version of the (hard) gradient boosting decision trees with extra benefits. Experimental results showed that, sGBM enjoys much higher time efficiency with better accuracy, given the same base learner in both on-line and off-line settings. arXiv:2006.04059v1 [cs.LG] 7 Jun 2020 1. Introduction Gradient Boosting Machine (GBM) [Fri01] has proven to be one successful function approximator and has been widely used in a variety of areas [BL07, CC11]. The basic idea is to train a series of base learners that minimize some predefined differentiable loss function in a sequential fashion. -

Received: 1 April 2020; Accepted: 21 May 2020; Published: 24 May 2020 Abstract: Due to the stochastic nature and complexity of flow, as well as the existence of hydrological uncertainties, predicting streamflow in dam reservoirs, especially in semi-arid and arid areas, is essential for the optimal and timely use of surface water resources. In this research, daily streamflow to the Ermenek hydroelectric dam reservoir located in Turkey is simulated using deep recurrent neural network (RNN) architectures, including bidirectional long short-term memory (Bi-LSTM), gated recurrent unit (GRU), long short-term memory (LSTM), and simple recurrent neural networks (simple RNN). For this purpose, daily observational flow data are used during the period 2012–2018, and all models are coded in Python software programming language. -

Training Deep Networks Without Learning Rates Through Coin Betting
Training Deep Networks without Learning Rates Through Coin Betting Francesco Orabona∗ Tatiana Tommasi∗ Department of Computer Science Department of Computer, Control, and Stony Brook University Management Engineering Stony Brook, NY Sapienza, Rome University, Italy [email protected] [email protected] Abstract Deep learning methods achieve state-of-the-art performance in many application scenarios. Yet, these methods require a significant amount of hyperparameters tuning in order to achieve the best results. In particular, tuning the learning rates in the stochastic optimization process is still one of the main bottlenecks. In this paper, we propose a new stochastic gradient descent procedure for deep networks that does not require any learning rate setting. Contrary to previous methods, we do not adapt the learning rates nor we make use of the assumed curvature of the objective function. Instead, we reduce the optimization process to a game of betting on a coin and propose a learning-rate-free optimal algorithm for this scenario. Theoretical convergence is proven for convex and quasi-convex functions and empirical evidence shows the advantage of our algorithm over popular stochastic gradient algorithms. 1 Introduction In the last years deep learning has demonstrated a great success in a large number of fields and has attracted the attention of various research communities with the consequent development of multiple coding frameworks (e.g., Caffe [Jia et al., 2014], TensorFlow [Abadi et al., 2015]), the diffusion of blogs, online tutorials, books, and dedicated courses. Besides reaching out scientists with different backgrounds, the need of all these supportive tools originates also from the nature of deep learning: it is a methodology that involves many structural details as well as several hyperparameters whose importance has been growing with the recent trend of designing deeper and multi-branches networks. -
