静园号院前沿讲座 2 0 1 9 年第02号 Deep Belief Nets Prof. Geoffrey Hinton Host: Prof. John Hopcroft 2019年5月14日星期二 12:00-13:00 北京大学静园五院204（报告部分远程） Abstract In 2006, there was a resurgence of interest in deep neural networks. This was triggered by the discovery that there was a simple and effective way to pre-train deep networks as generative models of unlabeled data. The pre-trained networks could then be fine-tuned discriminatively to give excellent performance on labeled data. In this lecture, I will describe the pre-training procedure used for Deep Belief Nets and show how it evolved from an earlier training procedure for Boltzmann machines that was theoretically elegant but too inefficient to be practical. I will also show how the pre-training procedure overcame a major practical problem in training densely connected belief nets.

The Deep Learning Revolution and Its Implications for Computer Architecture and Chip Design
The Deep Learning Revolution and Its Implications for Computer Architecture and Chip Design Jeffrey Dean Google Research [email protected] Abstract The past decade has seen a remarkable series of advances in machine learning, and in particular deep learning approaches based on artificial neural networks, to improve our abilities to build more accurate systems across a broad range of areas, including computer vision, speech recognition, language translation, and natural language understanding tasks. This paper is a companion paper to a keynote talk at the 2020 International Solid-State Circuits Conference (ISSCC) discussing some of the advances in machine learning, and their implications on the kinds of computational devices we need to build, especially in the post-Moore’s Law-era. It also discusses some of the ways that machine learning may also be able to help with some aspects of the circuit design process. Finally, it provides a sketch of at least one interesting direction towards much larger-scale multi-task models that are sparsely activated and employ much more dynamic, example- and task-based routing than the machine learning models of today. Introduction The past decade has seen a remarkable series of advances in machine learning (ML), and in particular deep learning approaches based on artificial neural networks, to improve our abilities to build more accurate systems across a broad range of areas [LeCun et al. 2015]. Major areas of significant advances include computer vision [Krizhevsky et al. 2012, Szegedy et al. 2015, He et al. 2016, Real et al. 2017, Tan and Le 2019], speech recognition [Hinton et al.

Fast Neural Network Emulation of Dynamical Systems for Computer Animation
Fast Neural Network Emulation of Dynamical Systems for Computer Animation Radek Grzeszczuk 1 Demetri Terzopoulos 2 Geoffrey Hinton 2 1 Intel Corporation 2 University of Toronto Microcomputer Research Lab Department of Computer Science 2200 Mission College Blvd. 10 King's College Road Santa Clara, CA 95052, USA Toronto, ON M5S 3H5, Canada Abstract Computer animation through the numerical simulation of physics-based graphics models offers unsurpassed realism, but it can be computation ally demanding. This paper demonstrates the possibility of replacing the numerical simulation of nontrivial dynamic models with a dramatically more efficient "NeuroAnimator" that exploits neural networks. Neu roAnimators are automatically trained off-line to emulate physical dy namics through the observation of physics-based models in action. De pending on the model, its neural network emulator can yield physically realistic animation one or two orders of magnitude faster than conven tional numerical simulation. We demonstrate NeuroAnimators for a va riety of physics-based models. 1 Introduction Animation based on physical principles has been an influential trend in computer graphics for over a decade (see, e.g., [1, 2, 3]). This is not only due to the unsurpassed realism that physics-based techniques offer. In conjunction with suitable control and constraint mechanisms, physical models also facilitate the production of copious quantities of real istic animation in a highly automated fashion. Physics-based animation techniques are beginning to find their way into high-end commercial systems. However, a well-known drawback has retarded their broader penetration--compared to geometric models, physical models typically entail formidable numerical simulation costs. This paper proposes a new approach to creating physically realistic animation that differs Emulation for Animation 883 radically from the conventional approach of numerically simulating the equations of mo tion of physics-based models.

CNN Encoder to Reduce the Dimensionality of Data Image For
CNN Encoder to Reduce the Dimensionality of Data Image for Motion Planning Janderson Ferreira1, Agostinho A. F. Júnior1, Yves M. Galvão1 1 1 2 ∗ Bruno J. T. Fernandes and Pablo Barros , 1- Universidade de Pernambuco - Escola Politécnica de Pernambuco Rua Benfica 455, Recife/PE - Brazil 2- Cognitive Architecture for Collaborative Technologies (CONTACT) Unit Istituto Italiano di Tecnologia, Genova, Italy Abstract. Many real-world applications need path planning algorithms to solve tasks in different areas, such as social applications, autonomous cars, and tracking activities. And most importantly motion planning. Although the use of path planning is sufficient in most motion planning scenarios, they represent potential bottlenecks in large environments with dynamic changes. To tackle this problem, the number of possible routes could be reduced to make it easier for path planning algorithms to find the shortest path with less efforts. An traditional algorithm for path planning is the A*, it uses an heuristic to work faster than other solutions. In this work, we propose a CNN encoder capable of eliminating useless routes for motion planning problems, then we combine the proposed neural network output with A*. To measure the efficiency of our solution, we propose a database with different scenarios of motion planning problems. The evaluated metric is the number of the iterations to find the shortest path. The A* was compared with the CNN Encoder (proposal) with A*. In all evaluated scenarios, our solution reduced the number of iterations by more than 60%. 1 Introduction Present in many daily applications, path planning algorithm helps to solve many navigation problems.

Manitest: Are Classifiers Really Invariant? 1
FAWZI, FROSSARD: MANITEST: ARE CLASSIFIERS REALLY INVARIANT? 1 Manitest: Are classifiers really invariant? Alhussein Fawzi Signal Processing Laboratory (LTS4) alhussein.fawzi@epfl.ch Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Pascal Frossard Lausanne (EPFL) pascal.frossard@epfl.ch Lausanne, Switzerland Abstract Invariance to geometric transformations is a highly desirable property of automatic classifiers in many image recognition tasks. Nevertheless, it is unclear to which ex- tent state-of-the-art classifiers are invariant to basic transformations such as rotations and translations. This is mainly due to the lack of general methods that properly mea- sure such an invariance. In this paper, we propose a rigorous and systematic approach for quantifying the invariance to geometric transformations of any classifier. Our key idea is to cast the problem of assessing a classifier’s invariance as the computation of geodesics along the manifold of transformed images. We propose the Manitest method, built on the efficient Fast Marching algorithm to compute the invariance of classifiers. Our new method quantifies in particular the importance of data augmentation for learn- ing invariance from data, and the increased invariance of convolutional neural networks with depth. We foresee that the proposed generic tool for measuring invariance to a large class of geometric transformations and arbitrary classifiers will have many applications for evaluating and comparing classifiers based on their invariance, and help improving the invariance of existing classifiers. 1 Introduction Due to the huge research efforts that have been recently deployed in computer vision and machine learning, the state-of-the-art image classification systems are now reaching perfor- mances that are close to those of the human visual system in terms of accuracy on some datasets [18, 33].

CSC2535: 2013 Advanced Machine Learning Taking Inverse Graphics Seriously Geoffrey Hinton Department of Computer Science University of Toronto The representation used by the neural nets that work best for recognition (Yann LeCun) • Convolutional neural nets use multiple layers of feature detectors that have local receptive fields and shared weights. • The feature extraction layers are interleaved with sub-sampling layers that throw away information about precise position in order to achieve some translation invariance. Why convolutional neural networks are doomed • Convolutional nets are doomed for two reasons: – Sub-sampling loses the precise spatial relationships between higher-level parts such as a nose and a mouth. The precise spatial relationships are needed for identity recognition • Overlapping the sub-sampling pools helps a bit. – They cannot extrapolate their understanding of geometric relationships to radically new viewpoints. Equivariance vs Invariance • Sub-sampling tries to make the neural activities invariant to small changes in viewpoint. – This is a silly goal, motivated by the fact that the final label needs to be viewpoint-invariant. • Its better to aim for equivariance: Changes in viewpoint lead to corresponding changes in neural activities. – In the perceptual system, its the weights that code viewpoint-invariant knowledge, not the neural activities. What is the right representation of images? • Computer vision is inverse computer graphics, so the higher levels of a vision system should look like the representations used in graphics. • Graphics programs use hierarchical models in which spatial structure is modeled by matrices that represent the transformation from a coordinate frame embedded in the whole to a coordinate frame embedded in each part.

Combining Learned Representations for Combinatorial Optimization
COMBINING LEARNED REPRESENTATIONS FOR COM- BINATORIAL OPTIMIZATION Saavan Patel, & Sayeef Salahuddin Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science University of California, Berkeley Berkeley, CA 94720, USA fsaavan,[email protected] ABSTRACT We propose a new approach to combine Restricted Boltzmann Machines (RBMs) that can be used to solve combinatorial optimization problems. This allows syn- thesis of larger models from smaller RBMs that have been pretrained, thus effec- tively bypassing the problem of learning in large RBMs, and creating a system able to model a large, complex multi-modal space. We validate this approach by using learned representations to create “invertible boolean logic”, where we can use Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) approaches to find the solution to large scale boolean satisfiability problems and show viability towards other combinato- rial optimization problems. Using this method, we are able to solve 64 bit addition based problems, as well as factorize 16 bit numbers. We find that these combined representations can provide a more accurate result for the same sample size as compared to a fully trained model. 1 INTRODUCTION The Ising Problem has long been known to be in the class of NP-Hard problems, with no exact poly- nomial solution existing. Because of this, a large class of combinatorial optimization problems can be reformulated as Ising problems and solved by finding the ground state of that system (Barahona, 1982; Kirkpatrick et al., 1983; Lucas, 2014). The Boltzmann Machine (Ackley et al., 1987) was originally introduced as a constraint satisfaction network based on the Ising model problem, where the weights would encode some global constraints, and stochastic units were used to escape local minima.
