Machine Learning algorithms based on Brain-inspired Hyperdimensional (HD) computing imitate cognition by exploiting statistical properties of high-dimensional vector spaces. It is a promising solution for achieving high energy-efficiency in different machine learning tasks, such as classification, semi-supervised learning and clustering. A weakness of existing HD computing-based ML algorithms is the fact that they have to be binarized for achieving very high energy-efficiency. At the same time, binarized models reach lower classification accuracies. To solve the problem of the trade-off between energy-efficiency and classification accuracy, we propose the QubitHD algorithm. It stochastically binarizes HD-based algorithms, while maintaining comparable classification accuracies to their non-binarized counterparts. The FPGA implementation of QubitHD provides a 65% improvement in terms of energy-efficiency, and a 95% improvement in terms of the training time, as compared to state-of-the-art HD-based ML algorithms. It also outperforms state-of-the-art low-cost classifiers (like Binarized Neural Networks) in terms of speed and energy-efficiency by an order of magnitude during training and inference.

Recently, research on accelerated stochastic gradient descent methods (e.g., SVRG) has made exciting progress (e.g., linear convergence for strongly convex problems). However, the best-known methods (e.g., Katyusha) requires at least two auxiliary va
riables and two momentum parameters. In this paper, we propose a fast stochastic variance reduction gradient (FSVRG) method, in which we design a novel update rule with the Nesterovs momentum and incorporate the technique of growing epoch size. FSVRG has only one auxiliary variable and one momentum weight, and thus it is much simpler and has much lower per-iteration complexity. We prove that FSVRG achieves linear convergence for strongly convex problems and the optimal $mathcal{O}(1/T^2)$ convergence rate for non-strongly convex problems, where $T$ is the number of outer-iterations. We also extend FSVRG to directly solve the problems with non-smooth component functions, such as SVM. Finally, we empirically study the performance of FSVRG for solving various machine learning problems such as logistic regression, ridge regression, Lasso and SVM. Our results show that FSVRG outperforms the state-of-the-art stochastic methods, including Katyusha.
We introduce a novel design for in-situ training of machine learning algorithms built into smart sensors, and illustrate distributed training scenarios using radio frequency (RF) spectrum sensors. Current RF sensors at the Edge lack the computational
resources to support practical, in-situ training for intelligent signal classification. We propose a solution using Deepdelay Loop Reservoir Computing (DLR), a processing architecture that supports machine learning algorithms on resource-constrained edge-devices by leveraging delayloop reservoir computing in combination with innovative hardware. DLR delivers reductions in form factor, hardware complexity and latency, compared to the State-ofthe- Art (SoA) neural nets. We demonstrate DLR for two applications: RF Specific Emitter Identification (SEI) and wireless protocol recognition. DLR enables mobile edge platforms to authenticate and then track emitters with fast SEI retraining. Once delay loops separate the data classes, traditionally complex, power-hungry classification models are no longer needed for the learning process. Yet, even with simple classifiers such as Ridge Regression (RR), the complexity grows at least quadratically with the input size. DLR with a RR classifier exceeds the SoA accuracy, while further reducing power consumption by leveraging the architecture of parallel (split) loops. To authenticate mobile devices across large regions, DLR can be trained in a distributed fashion with very little additional processing and a small communication cost, all while maintaining accuracy. We illustrate how to merge locally trained DLR classifiers in use cases of interest.
As the analytic tools become more powerful, and more data are generated on a daily basis, the issue of data privacy arises. This leads to the study of the design of privacy-preserving machine learning algorithms. Given two objectives, namely, utility
maximization and privacy-loss minimization, this work is based on two previously non-intersecting regimes -- Compressive Privacy and multi-kernel method. Compressive Privacy is a privacy framework that employs utility-preserving lossy-encoding scheme to protect the privacy of the data, while multi-kernel method is a kernel based machine learning regime that explores the idea of using multiple kernels for building better predictors. The compressive multi-kernel method proposed consists of two stages -- the compression stage and the multi-kernel stage. The compression stage follows the Compressive Privacy paradigm to provide the desired privacy protection. Each kernel matrix is compressed with a lossy projection matrix derived from the Discriminant Component Analysis (DCA). The multi-kernel stage uses the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) score of each kernel to non-uniformly combine multiple compressive kernels. The proposed method is evaluated on two mobile-sensing datasets -- MHEALTH and HAR -- where activity recognition is defined as utility and person identification is defined as privacy. The results show that the compression regime is successful in privacy preservation as the privacy classification accuracies are almost at the random-guess level in all experiments. On the other hand, the novel SNR-based multi-kernel shows utility classification accuracy improvement upon the state-of-the-art in both datasets. These results indicate a promising direction for research in privacy-preserving machine learning.
Prior studies have unveiled the vulnerability of the deep neural networks in the context of adversarial machine learning, leading to great recent attention into this area. One interesting question that has yet to be fully explored is the bias-varianc
e relationship of adversarial machine learning, which can potentially provide deeper insights into this behaviour. The notion of bias and variance is one of the main approaches to analyze and evaluate the generalization and reliability of a machine learning model. Although it has been extensively used in other machine learning models, it is not well explored in the field of deep learning and it is even less explored in the area of adversarial machine learning. In this study, we investigate the effect of adversarial machine learning on the bias and variance of a trained deep neural network and analyze how adversarial perturbations can affect the generalization of a network. We derive the bias-variance trade-off for both classification and regression applications based on two main loss functions: (i) mean squared error (MSE), and (ii) cross-entropy. Furthermore, we perform quantitative analysis with both simulated and real data to empirically evaluate consistency with the derived bias-variance tradeoffs. Our analysis sheds light on why the deep neural networks have poor performance under adversarial perturbation from a bias-variance point of view and how this type of perturbation would change the performance of a network. Moreover, given these new theoretical findings, we introduce a new adversarial machine learning algorithm with lower computational complexity than well-known adversarial machine learning strategies (e.g., PGD) while providing a high success rate in fooling deep neural networks in lower perturbation magnitudes.
This paper presents an experimental comparison among four Automated Machine Learning (AutoML) methods for recommending the best classification algorithm for a given input dataset. Three of these methods are based on Evolutionary Algorithms (EAs), and
the other is Auto-WEKA, a well-known AutoML method based on the Combined Algorithm Selection and Hyper-parameter optimisation (CASH) approach. The EA-based methods build classification algorithms from a single machine learning paradigm: either decision-tree induction, rule induction, or Bayesian network classification. Auto-WEKA combines algorithm selection and hyper-parameter optimisation to recommend classification algorithms from multiple paradigms. We performed controlled experiments where these four AutoML methods were given the same runtime limit for different values of this limit. In general, the difference in predictive accuracy of the three best AutoML methods was not statistically significant. However, the EA evolving decision-tree induction algorithms has the advantage of producing algorithms that generate interpretable classification models and that are more scalable to large datasets, by comparison with many algorithms from other learning paradigms that can be recommended by Auto-WEKA. We also observed that Auto-WEKA has shown meta-overfitting, a form of overfitting at the meta-learning level, rather than at the base-learning level.
