We show that deep generative neural networks, based on global topology optimization networks (GLOnets), can be configured to perform the multi-objective and categorical global optimization of photonic devices. A residual network scheme enables GLOnets to evolve from a deep architecture, which is required to properly search the full design space early in the optimization process, to a shallow network that generates a narrow distribution of globally optimal devices. As a proof-of-concept demonstration, we adapt our method to design thin film stacks consisting of multiple material types. Benchmarks with known globally-optimized anti-reflection structures indicate that GLOnets can find the global optimum with orders of magnitude faster speeds compared to conventional algorithms. We also demonstrate the utility of our method in complex design tasks with its application to incandescent light filters. These results indicate that advanced concepts in deep learning can push the capabilities of inverse design algorithms for photonics.

Recently, more and more works have proposed to drive evolutionary algorithms using machine learning models.Usually, the performance of such model based evolutionary algorithms is highly dependent on the training qualities of the adopted models.Since it usually requires a certain amount of data (i.e. the candidate solutions generated by the algorithms) for model training, the performance deteriorates rapidly with the increase of the problem scales, due to the curse of dimensionality.To address this issue, we propose a multi-objective evolutionary algorithm driven by the generative adversarial networks (GANs).At each generation of the proposed algorithm, the parent solutions are first classified into emph{real} and emph{fake} samples to train the GANs; then the offspring solutions are sampled by the trained GANs.Thanks to the powerful generative ability of the GANs, our proposed algorithm is capable of generating promising offspring solutions in high-dimensional decision space with limited training data.The proposed algorithm is tested on 10 benchmark problems with up to 200 decision variables.Experimental results on these test problems demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.
User response prediction is a crucial component for personalized information retrieval and filtering scenarios, such as recommender system and web search. The data in user response prediction is mostly in a multi-field categorical format and transformed into sparse representations via one-hot encoding. Due to the sparsity problems in representation and optimization, most research focuses on feature engineering and shallow modeling. Recently, deep neural networks have attracted research attention on such a problem for their high capacity and end-to-end training scheme. In this paper, we study user response prediction in the scenario of click prediction. We first analyze a coupled gradient issue in latent vector-based models and propose kernel product to learn field-aware feature interactions. Then we discuss an insensitive gradient issue in DNN-based models and propose Product-based Neural Network (PNN) which adopts a feature extractor to explore feature interactions. Generalizing the kernel product to a net-in-net architecture, we further propose Product-network In Network (PIN) which can generalize previous models. Extensive experiments on 4 industrial datasets and 1 contest dataset demonstrate that our models consistently outperform 8 baselines on both AUC and log loss. Besides, PIN makes great CTR improvement (relatively 34.67%) in online A/B test.
Large-scale multiobjective optimization problems (LSMOPs) are characterized as involving hundreds or even thousands of decision variables and multiple conflicting objectives. An excellent algorithm for solving LSMOPs should find Pareto-optimal solutions with diversity and escape from local optima in the large-scale search space. Previous research has shown that these optimal solutions are uniformly distributed on the manifold structure in the low-dimensional space. However, traditional evolutionary algorithms for solving LSMOPs have some deficiencies in dealing with this structural manifold, resulting in poor diversity, local optima, and inefficient searches. In this work, a generative adversarial network (GAN)-based manifold interpolation framework is proposed to learn the manifold and generate high-quality solutions on this manifold, thereby improving the performance of evolutionary algorithms. We compare the proposed algorithm with several state-of-the-art algorithms on large-scale multiobjective benchmark functions. Experimental results have demonstrated the significant improvements achieved by this framework in solving LSMOPs.
Numerical simulation of complex optical structures enables their optimization with respect to specific objectives. Often, optimization is done by multiple successive parameter scans, which are time consuming and computationally expensive. We employ here Bayesian optimization with Gaussian processes in order to automatize and speed up the optimization process. As a toy example, we demonstrate optimization of the shape of a free-form reflective meta surface such that it diffracts light into a specific diffraction order. For this example, we compare the performance of six different Bayesian optimization approaches with various acquisition functions and various kernels of the Gaussian process.
In this paper we present a method for learning a discriminative classifier from unlabeled or partially labeled data. Our approach is based on an objective function that trades-off mutual information between observed examples and their predicted categorical class distribution, against robustness of the classifier to an adversarial generative model. The resulting algorithm can either be interpreted as a natural generalization of the generative adversarial networks (GAN) framework or as an extension of the regularized information maximization (RIM) framework to robust classification against an optimal adversary. We empirically evaluate our method - which we dub categorical generative adversarial networks (or CatGAN) - on synthetic data as well as on challenging image classification tasks, demonstrating the robustness of the learned classifiers. We further qualitatively assess the fidelity of samples generated by the adversarial generator that is learned alongside the discriminative classifier, and identify links between the CatGAN objective and discriminative clustering algorithms (such as RIM).
