Controlled learning of pointwise nonlinearities in neural-network-like architectures

Michaël Unser, Alexis Marie Frederic Goujon, Stanislas Ducotterd

We present a general variational framework for the training of freeform nonlinearities in layered computational architectures subject to some slope constraints. The regularization that we add to the traditional training loss penalizes the second-order tota ...

Emotions in Engineering Ethics Education: Systematic Review and Ways Forward

Roland John Tormey

Emotion is an increasingly important concept in ethics, education, and engineering. It is also important for the intersection of these three domains: engineering ethics education. Despite extensive research being conducted independently in each field, ther ...

Few-shot Learning for Efficient and Effective Machine Learning Model Adaptation

Arnout Jan J Devos

Machine learning (ML) enables artificial intelligent (AI) agents to learn autonomously from data obtained from their environment to perform tasks. Modern ML systems have proven to be extremely effective, reaching or even exceeding human intelligence. Altho ...

The Road Not Taken: How First-Generation Students Differ in Their Postgraduate Educational Paths

Olga Vladimirovna Kasatkina, Joelyn de Lima

First-generation students (FGS) are traditionally underrepresented in higher education, including engineering education. To ensure equity in access and success in engineering, and thereby ensure that we educate responsible engineers who come from a diversi ...

Robust machine learning for neuroscientific inference

Steffen Schneider

Modern neuroscience research is generating increasingly large datasets, from recording thousands of neurons over long timescales to behavioral recordings of animals spanning weeks, months, or even years. Despite a great variety in recording setups and expe ...

Mitigating Object Dependencies: Improving Point Cloud Self-Supervised Learning through Object Exchange

Sabine Süsstrunk, Mathieu Salzmann, Tong Zhang

In the realm of point cloud scene understanding, particularly in indoor scenes, objects are arranged following human habits, resulting in objects of certain semantics being closely positioned and displaying notable inter-object correlations. This can creat ...

Learning Informative Health Indicators Through Unsupervised Contrastive Learning

Olga Fink

Monitoring the health of complex industrial assets is crucial for safe and efficient operations. Health indicators that provide quantitative real-time insights into the health status of industrial assets over time serve as valuable tools for, e.g., fault d ...

Interpret3C: Interpretable Student Clustering Through Individualized Feature Selection

Julian Thomas Blackwell, Tanja Christina Käser Jacober, Paola Mejia Domenzain, Vinitra Swamy

Clustering in education, particularly in large-scale online environments like MOOCs, is essential for understanding and adapting to diverse student needs. However, the effectiveness of clustering depends on its interpretability, which becomes challenging w ...

Boosting likelihood learning with event reweighting

Andrea Wulzer, Alfredo Glioti, Siyu Chen

Extracting maximal information from experimental data requires access to the likelihood function, which however is never directly available for complex experiments like those performed at high energy colliders. Theoretical predictions are obtained in this ...

Stochastic pairwise preference convergence in Bayesian agents

Max-Olivier Hongler

Beliefs inform the behaviour of forward-thinking agents in complex environments. Recently, sequential Bayesian inference has emerged as a mechanism to study belief formation among agents adapting to dynamical conditions. However, we lack critical theory to ...

On the Generalization of Stochastic Gradient Descent with Momentum

Volkan Cevher, Kimon Antonakopoulos

While momentum-based accelerated variants of stochastic gradient descent (SGD) are widely used when training machine learning models, there is little theoretical understanding on the generalization error of such methods. In this work, we first show that th ...

Social Opinion Formation and Decision Making Under Communication Trends

Ali H. Sayed, Virginia Bordignon, Mert Kayaalp

This work studies the learning process over social networks under partial and random information sharing. In traditional social learning models, agents exchange full belief information with each other while trying to infer the true state of nature. We stud ...

Test-time adaptation for 6D pose tracking

Andrea Cavallaro

We propose a test -time adaptation for 6D object pose tracking that learns to adapt a pre -trained model to track the 6D pose of novel objects. We consider the problem of 6D object pose tracking as a 3D keypoint detection and matching task and present a mo ...

Match Normalization: Learning-Based Point Cloud Registration for 6D Object Pose Estimation in the Real World

Mathieu Salzmann, Zheng Dang

In this work, we tackle the task of estimating the 6D pose of an object from point cloud data. While recent learning-based approaches have shown remarkable success on synthetic datasets, we have observed them to fail in the presence of real-world data. We ...

Understanding generalization and robustness in modern deep learning

Maksym Andriushchenko

In this thesis, we study two closely related directions: robustness and generalization in modern deep learning. Deep learning models based on empirical risk minimization are known to be often non-robust to small, worst-case perturbations known as adversari ...
