The recent developments of deep learning cover a wide variety of tasks such as image classification, text translation, playing go, and folding proteins.
All these successful methods depend on a gradient-based learning algorithm to train a model on massive ...
Linear-Quadratic-Gaussian (LQG) control is a fundamental control paradigm that is studied in various fields such as engineering, computer science, economics, and neuroscience. It involves controlling a system with linear dynamics and imperfect observations ...
Graph machine learning offers a powerful framework with natural applications in scientific fields such as chemistry, biology and material sciences.
By representing data as a graph, we encode the prior knowledge that the data is composed of a set of entiti ...
The Joint Photographic Experts Group (JPEG) AI learning-based image coding system is an ongoing joint standardization effort between International Organization for Standardization (ISO), International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC), and International Te ...
In this article, we study the problem of Byzantine fault-tolerance in a federated optimization setting, where there is a group of agents communicating with a centralized coordinator. We allow up to f Byzantine-faulty agents, which may not follow a prescr ...
The goal of this paper is to characterize function distributions that general neural networks trained by descent algorithms (GD/SGD), can or cannot learn in polytime. The results are: (1) The paradigm of general neural networks trained by SGD is poly-time ...
While adversarial training and its variants have shown to be the most effective algorithms to defend against adversarial attacks, their extremely slow training process makes it hard to scale to large datasets like ImageNet. The key idea of recent works to ...
Neural machine translation (MT) and text generation have recently reached very high levels of quality. However, both areas share a problem: in order to reach these levels, they require massive amounts of data. When this is not present, they lack generaliza ...
In this paper, we consider electric vehicle charging facilities that offer various levels of service, i.e., charging rates, for varying prices such that rational users choose a level of service that minimizes the total cost to themselves including an oppor ...
Control design for robotic systems is complex and often requires solving an optimization to follow a trajectory accurately. Online optimization approaches like Model Predictive Control (MPC) have been shown to achieve great tracking performance, but requir ...
Non-convex constrained optimization problems have become a powerful framework for modeling a wide range of machine learning problems, with applications in k-means clustering, large- scale semidefinite programs (SDPs), and various other tasks. As the perfor ...
