Phase diagram of Stochastic Gradient Descent in high-dimensional two-layer neural networks

Florent Gérard Krzakala, Lenka Zdeborová, Bruno Loureiro, Bruno Loureiro, Ludovic Théo Stephan

Despite the non-convex optimization landscape, over-parametrized shallow networks are able to achieve global convergence under gradient descent. The picture can be radically different for narrow net-works, which tend to get stuck in badly-generalizing loca ...

Improving the Training of Compact Neural Networks for Visual Recognition

Shuxuan Guo

During the Artificial Intelligence (AI) revolution of the past decades, deep neural networks have been widely used and have achieved tremendous success in visual recognition. Unfortunately, deploying deep models is challenging because of their huge model s ...

GALET: A deep learning image segmentation model for drone-based grain size analysis of gravel bars

Giovanni De Cesare, Christian Mörtl

In this study, we present the deep learning image segmentation model for drone-based grain size analysis of gravel bars called GALET. The objectives are to quantify the performance of the code and to test its applicability in river research and management. ...

Essays in Empirical Asset Pricing

Alexis Arilès Marchal

This thesis consists of three applications of machine learning techniques to empirical asset pricing. In the first part, which is co-authored work with Oksana Bashchenko, we develop a new method that detects jumps nonparametrically in financial time series ...

Practical Multiple-Scattering Sheen Using Linearly Transformed Cosines

Tizian Lucien Zeltner

We introduce a new volumetric sheen BRDF that approximates scattering observed in surfaces covered with normally-oriented fibers. Our previous sheen model was motivated by measured cloth reflectance, but lacked significant backward scattering. The model pr ...

Metric learning for kernel ridge regression: assessment of molecular similarity

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

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 ...

Object Priors for Volumetric Image Segmentation

Pamuditha Udaranga Wickramasinghe

Large training datasets have played a vital role in the success of modern deep learning methods in computer vision. But, obtaining sufficient amount of training data is challenging, specially when annotating volumetric images. This is because fully annotat ...

Reshaping Perception for Autonomous Driving with Semantic Keypoints

Lorenzo Bertoni

The field of artificial intelligence is set to fuel the future of mobility by driving forward the transition from advanced driver-assist systems to fully autonomous vehicles (AV). Yet the current technology, backed by cutting-edge deep learning techniques, ...

Local Nondeterminism and Local Times of the Stochastic Wave Equation Driven by Fractional-Colored Noise

Cheuk Yin Lee

We investigate the existence and regularity of the local times of the solution to a linear system of stochastic wave equations driven by a Gaussian noise that is fractional in time and colored in space. Using Fourier analytic methods, we establish strong l ...

Natural-Looking Adversarial Examples From Freehand Sketches

Davide Nanni, Hakgu Kim

Deep neural networks (DNNs) have achieved great success in image classification and recognition compared to previous methods. However, recent works have reported that DNNs are very vulnerable to adversarial examples that are intentionally generated to misl ...

Multi-layer State Evolution Under Random Convolutional Design

Florent Gérard Krzakala, Lenka Zdeborová

Signal recovery under generative neural network priors has emerged as a promising direction in statistical inference and computational imaging. Theoretical analysis of reconstruction algorithms under generative priors is, however, challenging. For generati ...
