Fundamental Limits in Statistical Learning Problems: Block Models and Neural Networks

Elisabetta Cornacchia

This thesis focuses on two selected learning problems: 1) statistical inference on graphs models, and, 2) gradient descent on neural networks, with the common objective of defining and analysing the measures that characterize the fundamental limits.In the ...

Autoencoders reloaded

Hervé Bourlard, Selen Hande Kabil

In Bourlard and Kamp (Biol Cybern 59(4):291-294, 1998), it was theoretically proven that autoencoders (AE) with single hidden layer (previously called "auto-associative multilayer perceptrons") were, in the best case, implementing singular value decomposit ...

A Wasserstein-based measure of conditional dependence

Negar Kiyavash, Seyed Jalal Etesami, Kun Zhang

Measuring conditional dependencies among the variables of a network is of great interest to many disciplines. This paper studies some shortcomings of the existing dependency measures in detecting direct causal influences or their lack of ability for group ...

Hidden Markov Modeling Over Graphs

Ali H. Sayed, Mert Kayaalp, Stefan Vlaski, Virginia Bordignon

This work proposes a multi-agent filtering algorithm over graphs for finite-state hidden Markov models (HMMs), which can be used for sequential state estimation or for tracking opinion formation over dynamic social networks. We show that the difference fro ...

Fair Voice Biometrics: Impact of Demographic Imbalance on Group Fairness in Speaker Recognition

Mirko Marras

Speaker recognition systems are playing a key role in modern online applications. Though the susceptibility of these systems to discrimination according to group fairness metrics has been recently studied, their assessment has been mainly focused on the di ...

Multilingual Training and Adaptation in Speech Recognition

Sibo Tong

State-of-the-art acoustic models for Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) are based on Hidden Markov Models (HMM) and Deep Neural Networks (DNN) and often require thousands of hours of transcribed speech data during training. Therefore, building multilingual ...

Exact Preimages of Neural Network Aircraft Collision Avoidance Systems

François Fleuret, Kyle Michael Matoba

A common pattern of progress in engineering has seen deep neural networks displacing human-designed logic. There are many advantages to this approach, divorcing decisionmaking from human oversight and intuition has costs as well. One is that deep neural ne ...

On Vacuous and Non-Vacuous Generalization Bounds for Deep Neural Networks.

Konstantinos Pitas

Deep neural networks have been empirically successful in a variety of tasks, however their theoretical understanding is still poor. In particular, modern deep neural networks have many more parameters than training data. Thus, in principle they should over ...

Crowding and the Architecture of the Visual System

Adrien Christophe Doerig

Classically, vision is seen as a cascade of local, feedforward computations. This framework has been tremendously successful, inspiring a wide range of ground-breaking findings in neuroscience and computer vision. Recently, feedforward Convolutional Neural ...

Optimization and Generalization of Shallow Neural Networks with Quadratic Activation Functions

Lenka Zdeborová

p>We study the dynamics of optimization and the generalization properties of one-hidden layer neural networks with quadratic activation function in the overparametrized regime where the layer width m is larger than the input dimension d. We conside ...
