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. -

Covariance Matrix Adaptation for the Rapid Illumination of Behavior Space
Covariance Matrix Adaptation for the Rapid Illumination of Behavior Space Matthew C. Fontaine Julian Togelius Viterbi School of Engineering Tandon School of Engineering University of Southern California New York University Los Angeles, CA New York City, NY [email protected] [email protected] Stefanos Nikolaidis Amy K. Hoover Viterbi School of Engineering Ying Wu College of Computing University of Southern California New Jersey Institute of Technology Los Angeles, CA Newark, NJ [email protected] [email protected] ABSTRACT We focus on the challenge of finding a diverse collection of quality solutions on complex continuous domains. While quality diver- sity (QD) algorithms like Novelty Search with Local Competition (NSLC) and MAP-Elites are designed to generate a diverse range of solutions, these algorithms require a large number of evaluations for exploration of continuous spaces. Meanwhile, variants of the Covariance Matrix Adaptation Evolution Strategy (CMA-ES) are among the best-performing derivative-free optimizers in single- objective continuous domains. This paper proposes a new QD algo- rithm called Covariance Matrix Adaptation MAP-Elites (CMA-ME). Figure 1: Comparing Hearthstone Archives. Sample archives Our new algorithm combines the self-adaptation techniques of for both MAP-Elites and CMA-ME from the Hearthstone ex- CMA-ES with archiving and mapping techniques for maintaining periment. Our new method, CMA-ME, both fills more cells diversity in QD. Results from experiments based on standard con- in behavior space and finds higher quality policies to play tinuous optimization benchmarks show that CMA-ME finds better- Hearthstone than MAP-Elites. Each grid cell is an elite (high quality solutions than MAP-Elites; similarly, results on the strategic performing policy) and the intensity value represent the game Hearthstone show that CMA-ME finds both a higher overall win rate across 200 games against difficult opponents. -
Long Term Memory Assistance for Evolutionary Algorithms

As hardware technologies advance currently, inexpensive memory with massive capacities could become a performance boost to EAs. This paper introduces a Long Term Memory Assistance (LTMA) that records the entire search history of an evolutionary process. With LTMA, individuals already visited (i.e., duplicate solutions) do not need to be re-evaluated, and thus, resources originally designated to fitness evaluations could be reallocated to continue search space exploration or exploitation. Three sets of experiments were conducted to prove the superiority of LTMA. In the first experiment, it was shown that LTMA recorded at least 50% more duplicate individuals than a short term memory. In the second experiment, ABC and jDElscop were applied to the CEC-2015 benchmark functions. By avoiding fitness re-evaluation, LTMA improved execution time of the most time consuming problems F03 and F05 between 7% and 28% and 7% and 16%, respectively. In the third experiment, a hard real-world problem for determining soil models’ parameters, LTMA improved execution time between 26% and 69%. -
Keras2c: a Library for Converting Keras Neural Networks to Real-Time Compatible C
Keras2c: A library for converting Keras neural networks to real-time compatible C Rory Conlina,∗, Keith Ericksonb, Joeseph Abbatec, Egemen Kolemena,b,∗ aDepartment of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering, Princeton University, Princeton NJ 08544, USA bPrinceton Plasma Physics Laboratory, Princeton NJ 08544, USA cDepartment of Astrophysical Sciences at Princeton University, Princeton NJ 08544, USA Abstract With the growth of machine learning models and neural networks in mea- surement and control systems comes the need to deploy these models in a way that is compatible with existing systems. Existing options for deploying neural networks either introduce very high latency, require expensive and time con- suming work to integrate into existing code bases, or only support a very lim- ited subset of model types. We have therefore developed a new method called Keras2c, which is a simple library for converting Keras/TensorFlow neural net- work models into real-time compatible C code. It supports a wide range of Keras layers and model types including multidimensional convolutions, recurrent lay- ers, multi-input/output models, and shared layers. Keras2c re-implements the core components of Keras/TensorFlow required for predictive forward passes through neural networks in pure C, relying only on standard library functions considered safe for real-time use. The core functionality consists of ∼ 1500 lines of code, making it lightweight and easy to integrate into existing codebases. Keras2c has been successfully tested in experiments and is currently in use on the plasma control system at the DIII-D National Fusion Facility at General Atomics in San Diego. 1. Motivation TensorFlow[1] is one of the most popular libraries for developing and training neural networks. -

Can Temporal-Difference and Q-Learning Learn Representation? a Mean-Field Analysis
Can Temporal-Difference and Q-Learning Learn Representation? A Mean-Field Analysis Yufeng Zhang Qi Cai Northwestern University Northwestern University Evanston, IL 60208 Evanston, IL 60208 [email protected] [email protected] Zhuoran Yang Yongxin Chen Zhaoran Wang Princeton University Georgia Institute of Technology Northwestern University Princeton, NJ 08544 Atlanta, GA 30332 Evanston, IL 60208 [email protected] [email protected] [email protected] Abstract Temporal-difference and Q-learning play a key role in deep reinforcement learning, where they are empowered by expressive nonlinear function approximators such as neural networks. At the core of their empirical successes is the learned feature representation, which embeds rich observations, e.g., images and texts, into the latent space that encodes semantic structures. Meanwhile, the evolution of such a feature representation is crucial to the convergence of temporal-difference and Q-learning. In particular, temporal-difference learning converges when the function approxi- mator is linear in a feature representation, which is fixed throughout learning, and possibly diverges otherwise. We aim to answer the following questions: When the function approximator is a neural network, how does the associated feature representation evolve? If it converges, does it converge to the optimal one? We prove that, utilizing an overparameterized two-layer neural network, temporal- difference and Q-learning globally minimize the mean-squared projected Bellman error at a sublinear rate. Moreover, the associated feature representation converges to the optimal one, generalizing the previous analysis of [21] in the neural tan- gent kernel regime, where the associated feature representation stabilizes at the initial one. The key to our analysis is a mean-field perspective, which connects the evolution of a finite-dimensional parameter to its limiting counterpart over an infinite-dimensional Wasserstein space. -
