Learning without Smoothness and Strong Convexity

Yen-Huan Li

Recent advances in statistical learning and convex optimization have inspired many successful practices. Standard theories assume smoothness---bounded gradient, Hessian, etc.---and strong convexity of the loss function. Unfortunately, such conditions may ...

Unsupervised Learning of Phase-Change-Based Neuromorphic Systems

Stanislaw Andrzej Wozniak

Neuromorphic systems provide brain-inspired methods of computing. In a neuromorphic architecture, inputs are processed by a network of neurons receiving operands through synaptic interconnections, tuned in the process of learning. Neurons act simultaneousl ...

Applications of Approximate Learning and Inference for Probabilistic Models

Young Jun Ko

We develop approximate inference and learning methods for facilitating the use of probabilistic modeling techniques motivated by applications in two different areas. First, we consider the ill-posed inverse problem of recovering an image from an underdeter ...

The brain strategy for online learning

Ali H. Sayed, Stefan Vlaski, Bicheng Ying

Complexity is a double-edged sword for learning algorithms when the number of available samples for training in relation to the dimension of the feature space is small. This is because simple models do not sufficiently capture the nuances of the data set, ...

Dictionary learning for fast classification based on soft-thresholding

Pascal Frossard, Alhussein Fawzi

Classifiers based on sparse representations have recently been shown to provide excellent results in many visual recognition and classification tasks. However, the high cost of computing sparse representations at test time is a major obstacle that limits t ...

Sparsity-Driven Statistical Inference for Inverse Problems

Ulugbek Kamilov

This thesis addresses statistical inference for the resolution of inverse problems. Our work is motivated by the recent trend whereby classical linear methods are being replaced by nonlinear alternatives that rely on the sparsity of naturally occurring sig ...

Stable Myoelectric Control of a Hand Prosthesis using Non-Linear Incremental Learning

Barbara Caputo

Stable myoelectric control of hand prostheses remains an open problem. The only successful human–machine interface is surface electromyography, typically allowing control of a few degrees of freedom. Machine learning techniques may have the potential to re ...

Linear Bayesian Reinforcement Learning

Christos Dimitrakakis, Nikolaos Tziortziotis

This paper proposes a simple linear Bayesian approach to reinforcement learning. We show that with an appropriate basis, a Bayesian linear Gaussian model is sufficient for accurately estimating the system dynamics, and in particular when we allow for corre ...

Autonomous reinforcement learning with experience replay

Ajay Kumar Tanwani

This paper considers the issues of efficiency and autonomy that are required to make reinforcement learning suitable for real-life control tasks. A real-time reinforcement learning algorithm is presented that repeatedly adjusts the control policy with the ...

Learning to Detect Objects with Minimal Supervision

Karim Ali

Many classes of objects can now be successfully detected with statistical machine learning techniques. Faces, cars and pedestrians, have all been detected with low error rates by learning their appearance in a highly generic manner from extensive training ...
