Explicit high-order feature interactions efficiently capture essential structural knowledge about the data of interest and have been used for constructing generative models. We present a supervised discriminative High-Order Parametric Embedding (HOPE) approach to data visualization and compression. Compared to deep embedding models with complicated deep architectures, HOPE generates more effective high-order feature mapping through an embarrassingly simple shallow model. Furthermore, two approaches to generating a small number of exemplars conveying high-order interactions to represent large-scale data sets are proposed. These exemplars in combination with the feature mapping learned by HOPE effectively capture essential data variations. Moreover, through HOPE, these exemplars are employed to increase the computational efficiency of kNN classification for fast information retrieval by thousands of times. For classification in two-dimensional embedding space on MNIST and USPS datasets, our shallow method HOPE with simple Sigmoid transformations significantly outperforms state-of-the-art supervised deep embedding models based on deep neural networks, and even achieved historically low test error rate of 0.65% in two-dimensional space on MNIST, which demonstrates the representational efficiency and power of supervised shallow models with high-order feature interactions.

Automated theorem provers have traditionally relied on manually tuned heuristics to guide how they perform proof search. Deep reinforcement learning has been proposed as a way to obviate the need for such heuristics, however, its deployment in automa ted theorem proving remains a challenge. In this paper we introduce TRAIL, a system that applies deep reinforcement learning to saturation-based theorem proving. TRAIL leverages (a) a novel neural representation of the state of a theorem prover and (b) a novel characterization of the inference selection process in terms of an attention-based action policy. We show through systematic analysis that these mechanisms allow TRAIL to significantly outperform previous reinforcement-learning-based theorem provers on two benchmark datasets for first-order logic automated theorem proving (proving around 15% more theorems).
Deep reinforcement learning (DRL) methods such as the Deep Q-Network (DQN) have achieved state-of-the-art results in a variety of challenging, high-dimensional domains. This success is mainly attributed to the power of deep neural networks to learn r ich domain representations for approximating the value function or policy. Batch reinforcement learning methods with linear representations, on the other hand, are more stable and require less hyper parameter tuning. Yet, substantial feature engineering is necessary to achieve good results. In this work we propose a hybrid approach -- the Least Squares Deep Q-Network (LS-DQN), which combines rich feature representations learned by a DRL algorithm with the stability of a linear least squares method. We do this by periodically re-training the last hidden layer of a DRL network with a batch least squares update. Key to our approach is a Bayesian regularization term for the least squares update, which prevents over-fitting to the more recent data. We tested LS-DQN on five Atari games and demonstrate significant improvement over vanilla DQN and Double-DQN. We also investigated the reasons for the superior performance of our method. Interestingly, we found that the performance improvement can be attributed to the large batch size used by the LS method when optimizing the last layer.
Datasets representing the world around us are becoming ever more unwieldy as data volumes grow. This is largely due to increased measurement and modelling resolution, but the problem is often exacerbated when data are stored at spuriously high precis ions. In an effort to facilitate analysis of these datasets, computationally intensive calculations are increasingly being performed on specialised remote servers before the reduced data are transferred to the consumer. Due to bandwidth limitations, this often means data are displayed as simple 2D data visualisations, such as scatter plots or images. We present here a novel way to efficiently encode and transmit 4D data fields on-demand so that they can be locally visualised and interrogated. This nascent 4D video format allows us to more flexibly move the boundary between data server and consumer client. However, it has applications beyond purely scientific visualisation, in the transmission of data to virtual and augmented reality.
People naturally bring their prior beliefs to bear on how they interpret the new information, yet few formal models exist for accounting for the influence of users prior beliefs in interactions with data presentations like visualizations. We demonstr ate a Bayesian cognitive model for understanding how people interpret visualizations in light of prior beliefs and show how this model provides a guide for improving visualization evaluation. In a first study, we show how applying a Bayesian cognition model to a simple visualization scenario indicates that peoples judgments are consistent with a hypothesis that they are doing approximate Bayesian inference. In a second study, we evaluate how sensitive our observations of Bayesian behavior are to different techniques for eliciting people subjective distributions, and to different datasets. We find that people dont behave consistently with Bayesian predictions for large sample size datasets, and this difference cannot be explained by elicitation technique. In a final study, we show how normative Bayesian inference can be used as an evaluation framework for visualizations, including of uncertainty.
Nearly all Statistical Parametric Speech Synthesizers today use Mel Cepstral coefficients as the vocal tract parameterization of the speech signal. Mel Cepstral coefficients were never intended to work in a parametric speech synthesis framework, but as yet, there has been little success in creating a better parameterization that is more suited to synthesis. In this paper, we use deep learning algorithms to investigate a data-driven parameterization technique that is designed for the specific requirements of synthesis. We create an invertible, low-dimensional, noise-robust encoding of the Mel Log Spectrum by training a tapered Stacked Denoising Autoencoder (SDA). This SDA is then unwrapped and used as the initialization for a Multi-Layer Perceptron (MLP). The MLP is fine-tuned by training it to reconstruct the input at the output layer. This MLP is then split down the middle to form encoding and decoding networks. These networks produce a parameterization of the Mel Log Spectrum that is intended to better fulfill the requirements of synthesis. Results are reported for experiments conducted using this resulting parameterization with the ClusterGen speech synthesizer.
