Extrapolation and Spectral Bias of Neural Nets with Hadamard Product: a Polynomial Net Study

Volkan Cevher, Grigorios Chrysos, Fanghui Liu, Zhenyu Zhu, Yongtao Wu

Neural tangent kernel (NTK) is a powerful tool to analyze training dynamics of neural networks and their generalization bounds. The study on NTK has been devoted to typical neural network architectures, but it is incomplete for neural networks with Hadamar ...

From Undercomplete to Sparse Overcomplete Autoencoders to Improve LF-MMI Speech Recognition

Hervé Bourlard, Selen Hande Kabil

Starting from a strong Lattice-Free Maximum Mutual Information (LF-MMI) baseline system, we explore different autoencoder configurations to enhance Mel-Frequency Cepstral Coefficients (MFCC) features. Autoencoders are expected to generate new MFCC features ...

Metric learning for kernel ridge regression: assessment of molecular similarity

Anne-Clémence Corminboeuf, Friedrich Eisenbrand, Raimon Fabregat I De Aguilar-Amat, Puck Elisabeth van Gerwen, Matthieu Nicolas Haeberle

Supervised and unsupervised kernel-based algorithms widely used in the physical sciences depend upon the notion of similarity. Their reliance on pre-defined distance metrics-e.g. the Euclidean or Manhattan distance-are problematic especially when used in c ...

Deterministic error bounds for kernel-based learning techniques under bounded noise

Colin Neil Jones, Emilio Maddalena, Paul Scharnhorst

We consider the problem of reconstructing a function from a finite set of noise-corrupted samples. Two kernel algorithms are analyzed, namely kernel ridge regression and epsilon-support vector regression. By assuming the ground-truth function belongs to th ...
