Although deep learning models perform remarkably well across a range of tasks such as language translation and object recognition, it remains unclear what high-level logic, if any, they follow. Understanding this logic may lead to more transparency, better model design, and faster experimentation. Recent machine learning research has leveraged statistical methods to identify hidden units that behave (e.g., activate) similarly to human understandable logic, but those analyses require considerable manual effort. Our insight is that many of those studies follow a common analysis pattern, which we term Deep Neural Inspection. There is opportunity to provide a declarative abstraction to easily express, execute, and optimize them. This paper describes DeepBase, a system to inspect neural network behaviors through a unified interface. We model logic with user-provided hypothesis functions that annotate the data with high-level labels (e.g., part-of-speech tags, image captions). DeepBase lets users quickly identify individual or groups of units that have strong statistical dependencies with desired hypotheses. We discuss how DeepBase can express existing analyses, propose a set of simple and effective optimizations to speed up a standard Python implementation by up to 72x, and reproduce recent studies from the NLP literature.

Electrical distribution poles are important assets in electricity supply. These poles need to be maintained in good condition to ensure they protect community safety, maintain reliability of supply, and meet legislative obligations. However, maintaining such a large volumes of assets is an expensive and challenging task. To address this, recent approaches utilise imagery data captured from helicopter and/or drone inspections. Whilst reducing the cost for manual inspection, manual analysis on each image is still required. As such, several image-based automated inspection systems have been proposed. In this paper, we target two major challenges: tiny object detection and extremely imbalanced datasets, which currently hinder the wide deployment of the automatic inspection. We propose a novel two-stage zoom-in detection method to gradually focus on the object of interest. To address the imbalanced dataset problem, we propose the resampling as well as reweighting schemes to iteratively adapt the model to the large intra-class variation of major class and balance the contributions to the loss from each class. Finally, we integrate these components together and devise a novel automatic inspection framework. Extensive experiments demonstrate that our proposed approaches are effective and can boost the performance compared to the baseline methods.
Data integration has been studied extensively for decades and approached from different angles. However, this domain still remains largely rule-driven and lacks universal automation. Recent development in machine learning and in particular deep learning has opened the way to more general and more efficient solutions to data integration problems. In this work, we propose a general approach to modeling and integrating entities from structured data, such as relational databases, as well as unstructured sources, such as free text from news articles. Our approach is designed to explicitly model and leverage relations between entities, thereby using all available information and preserving as much context as possible. This is achieved by combining siamese and graph neural networks to propagate information between connected entities and support high scalability. We evaluate our method on the task of integrating data about business entities, and we demonstrate that it outperforms standard rule-based systems, as well as other deep learning approaches that do not use graph-based representations.
Deep learning is a group of exciting new technologies for neural networks. Through a combination of advanced training techniques and neural network architectural components, it is now possible to create neural networks that can handle tabular data, images, text, and audio as both input and output. Deep learning allows a neural network to learn hierarchies of information in a way that is like the function of the human brain. This course will introduce the student to classic neural network structures, Convolution Neural Networks (CNN), Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM), Gated Recurrent Neural Networks (GRU), General Adversarial Networks (GAN), and reinforcement learning. Application of these architectures to computer vision, time series, security, natural language processing (NLP), and data generation will be covered. High-Performance Computing (HPC) aspects will demonstrate how deep learning can be leveraged both on graphical processing units (GPUs), as well as grids. Focus is primarily upon the application of deep learning to problems, with some introduction to mathematical foundations. Readers will use the Python programming language to implement deep learning using Google TensorFlow and Keras. It is not necessary to know Python prior to this book; however, familiarity with at least one programming language is assumed.
Mathematical morphology is a theory and technique to collect features like geometric and topological structures in digital images. Given a target image, determining suitable morphological operations and structuring elements is a cumbersome and time-consuming task. In this paper, a morphological neural network is proposed to address this problem. Serving as a nonlinear feature extracting layer in deep learning frameworks, the efficiency of the proposed morphological layer is confirmed analytically and empirically. With a known target, a single-filter morphological layer learns the structuring element correctly, and an adaptive layer can automatically select appropriate morphological operations. For practical applications, the proposed morphological neural networks are tested on several classification datasets related to shape or geometric image features, and the experimental results have confirmed the high computational efficiency and high accuracy.
Deep Convolutional Neural Networks (DCNNs) are currently the method of choice both for generative, as well as for discriminative learning in computer vision and machine learning. The success of DCNNs can be attributed to the careful selection of their building blocks (e.g., residual blocks, rectifiers, sophisticated normalization schemes, to mention but a few). In this paper, we propose $Pi$-Nets, a new class of function approximators based on polynomial expansions. $Pi$-Nets are polynomial neural networks, i.e., the output is a high-order polynomial of the input. The unknown parameters, which are naturally represented by high-order tensors, are estimated through a collective tensor factorization with factors sharing. We introduce three tensor decompositions that significantly reduce the number of parameters and show how they can be efficiently implemented by hierarchical neural networks. We empirically demonstrate that $Pi$-Nets are very expressive and they even produce good results without the use of non-linear activation functions in a large battery of tasks and signals, i.e., images, graphs, and audio. When used in conjunction with activation functions, $Pi$-Nets produce state-of-the-art results in three challenging tasks, i.e. image generation, face verification and 3D mesh representation learning.
