In this paper, we briefly review the basic scheme of the pseudoinverse learning (PIL) algorithm and present some discussions on the PIL, as well as its variants. The PIL algorithm, first presented in 1995, is a non-gradient descent and non-iterative learning algorithm for multi-layer neural networks and has several advantages compared with gradient descent based algorithms. Some new viewpoints to PIL algorithm are presented, and several common pitfalls in practical implementation of the neural network learning task are also addressed. In addition, we show that so called extreme learning machine is a Variant crEated by Simple name alTernation (VEST) of the PIL algorithm for single hidden layer feedforward neural networks.

Recent researches show that machine learning has the potential to learn better heuristics than the one designed by human for solving combinatorial optimization problems. The deep neural network is used to characterize the input instance for construct ing a feasible solution incrementally. Recently, an attention model is proposed to solve routing problems. In this model, the state of an instance is represented by node features that are fixed over time. However, the fact is, the state of an instance is changed according to the decision that the model made at different construction steps, and the node features should be updated correspondingly. Therefore, this paper presents a dynamic attention model with dynamic encoder-decoder architecture, which enables the model to explore node features dynamically and exploit hidden structure information effectively at different construction steps. This paper focuses on a challenging NP-hard problem, vehicle routing problem. The experiments indicate that our model outperforms the previous methods and also shows a good generalization performance.
Quantum hardware and quantum-inspired algorithms are becoming increasingly popular for combinatorial optimization. However, these algorithms may require careful hyperparameter tuning for each problem instance. We use a reinforcement learning agent in conjunction with a quantum-inspired algorithm to solve the Ising energy minimization problem, which is equivalent to the Maximum Cut problem. The agent controls the algorithm by tuning one of its parameters with the goal of improving recently seen solutions. We propose a new Rescaled Ranked Reward (R3) method that enables stable single-player version of self-play training that helps the agent to escape local optima. The training on any problem instance can be accelerated by applying transfer learning from an agent trained on randomly generated problems. Our approach allows sampling high-quality solutions to the Ising problem with high probability and outperforms both baseline heuristics and a black-box hyperparameter optimization approach.
Hidden Markov Models (HMMs) are one of the most fundamental and widely used statistical tools for modeling discrete time series. In general, learning HMMs from data is computationally hard (under cryptographic assumptions), and practitioners typicall y resort to search heuristics which suffer from the usual local optima issues. We prove that under a natural separation condition (bounds on the smallest singular value of the HMM parameters), there is an efficient and provably correct algorithm for learning HMMs. The sample complexity of the algorithm does not explicitly depend on the number of distinct (discrete) observations---it implicitly depends on this quantity through spectral properties of the underlying HMM. This makes the algorithm particularly applicable to settings with a large number of observations, such as those in natural language processing where the space of observation is sometimes the words in a language. The algorithm is also simple, employing only a singular value decomposition and matrix multiplications.

Gradient-based algorithms for training ResNets typically require a forward pass of the input data, followed by back-propagating the objective gradient to update parameters, which are time-consuming for deep ResNets. To break the dependencies between modules in both the forward and backward modes, auxiliary-variable methods such as the penalty and augmented Lagrangian (AL) approaches have attracted much interest lately due to their ability to exploit layer-wise parallelism. However, we observe that large communication overhead and lacking data augmentation are two key challenges of these methods, which may lead to low speedup ratio and accuracy drop across multiple compute devices. Inspired by the optimal control formulation of ResNets, we propose a novel serial-parallel hybrid training strategy to enable the use of data augmentation, together with downsampling filters to reduce the communication cost. The proposed strategy first trains the network parameters by solving a succession of independent sub-problems in parallel and then corrects the network parameters through a full serial forward-backward propagation of data. Such a strategy can be applied to most of the existing layer-parallel training methods using auxiliary variables. As an example, we validate the proposed strategy using penalty and AL methods on ResNet and WideResNet across MNIST, CIFAR-10 and CIFAR-100 datasets, achieving significant speedup over the traditional layer-serial training methods while maintaining comparable accuracy.
The goal of the unsupervised learning of disentangled representations is to separate the independent explanatory factors of variation in the data without access to supervision. In this paper, we summarize the results of Locatello et al., 2019, and fo cus on their implications for practitioners. We discuss the theoretical result showing that the unsupervised learning of disentangled representations is fundamentally impossible without inductive biases and the practical challenges it entails. Finally, we comment on our experimental findings, highlighting the limitations of state-of-the-art approaches and directions for future research.
