Existing uncertainty modeling approaches try to detect an out-of-distribution point from the in-distribution dataset. We extend this argument to detect finer-grained uncertainty that distinguishes between (a). certain points, (b). uncertain points but within the data distribution, and (c). out-of-distribution points. Our method corrects overconfident NN decisions, detects outlier points and learns to say ``I dont know when uncertain about a critical point between the top two predictions. In addition, we provide a mechanism to quantify class distributions overlap in the decision manifold and investigate its implications in model interpretability. Our method is two-step: in the first step, the proposed method builds a class distribution using Kernel Activation Vectors (kav) extracted from the Network. In the second step, the algorithm determines the confidence of a test point by a hierarchical decision rule based on the chi-squared distribution of squared Mahalanobis distances. Our method sits on top of a given Neural Network, requires a single scan of training data to estimate class distribution statistics, and is highly scalable to deep networks and wider pre-softmax layer. As a positive side effect, our method helps to prevent adversarial attacks without requiring any additional training. It is directly achieved when the Softmax layer is substituted by our robust uncertainty layer at the evaluation phase.

We propose a novel fine-grained quantization (FGQ) method to ternarize pre-trained full precision models, while also constraining activations to 8 and 4-bits. Using this method, we demonstrate a minimal loss in classification accuracy on state-of-the
-art topologies without additional training. We provide an improved theoretical formulation that forms the basis for a higher quality solution using FGQ. Our method involves ternarizing the original weight tensor in groups of $N$ weights. Using $N=4$, we achieve Top-1 accuracy within $3.7%$ and $4.2%$ of the baseline full precision result for Resnet-101 and Resnet-50 respectively, while eliminating $75%$ of all multiplications. These results enable a full 8/4-bit inference pipeline, with best-reported accuracy using ternary weights on ImageNet dataset, with a potential of $9times$ improvement in performance. Also, for smaller networks like AlexNet, FGQ achieves state-of-the-art results. We further study the impact of group size on both performance and accuracy. With a group size of $N=64$, we eliminate $approx99%$ of the multiplications; however, this introduces a noticeable drop in accuracy, which necessitates fine tuning the parameters at lower precision. We address this by fine-tuning Resnet-50 with 8-bit activations and ternary weights at $N=64$, improving the Top-1 accuracy to within $4%$ of the full precision result with $<30%$ additional training overhead. Our final quantized model can run on a full 8-bit compute pipeline using 2-bit weights and has the potential of up to $15times$ improvement in performance compared to baseline full-precision models.
Nested networks or slimmable networks are neural networks whose architectures can be adjusted instantly during testing time, e.g., based on computational constraints. Recent studies have focused on a nested dropout layer, which is able to order the n
odes of a layer by importance during training, thus generating a nested set of sub-networks that are optimal for different configurations of resources. However, the dropout rate is fixed as a hyper-parameter over different layers during the whole training process. Therefore, when nodes are removed, the performance decays in a human-specified trajectory rather than in a trajectory learned from data. Another drawback is the generated sub-networks are deterministic networks without well-calibrated uncertainty. To address these two problems, we develop a Bayesian approach to nested neural networks. We propose a variational ordering unit that draws samples for nested dropout at a low cost, from a proposed Downhill distribution, which provides useful gradients to the parameters of nested dropout. Based on this approach, we design a Bayesian nested neural network that learns the order knowledge of the node distributions. In experiments, we show that the proposed approach outperforms the nested network in terms of accuracy, calibration, and out-of-domain detection in classification tasks. It also outperforms the related approach on uncertainty-critical tasks in computer vision.
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 thei
r 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.

Heterogeneous presentation of a neurological disorder suggests potential differences in the underlying pathophysiological changes that occur in the brain. We propose to model heterogeneous patterns of functional network differences using a demographi
c-guided attention (DGA) mechanism for recurrent neural network models for prediction from functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) time-series data. The context computed from the DGA head is used to help focus on the appropriate functional networks based on individual demographic information. We demonstrate improved classification on 3 subsets of the ABIDE I dataset used in published studies that have previously produced state-of-the-art results, evaluating performance under a leave-one-site-out cross-validation framework for better generalizeability to new data. Finally, we provide examples of interpreting functional network differences based on individual demographic variables.
We show implicit filter level sparsity manifests in convolutional neural networks (CNNs) which employ Batch Normalization and ReLU activation, and are trained with adaptive gradient descent techniques and L2 regularization or weight decay. Through an
extensive empirical study (Mehta et al., 2019) we hypothesize the mechanism behind the sparsification process, and find surprising links to certain filter sparsification heuristics proposed in literature. Emergence of, and the subsequent pruning of selective features is observed to be one of the contributing mechanisms, leading to feature sparsity at par or better than certain explicit sparsification / pruning approaches. In this workshop article we summarize our findings, and point out corollaries of selective-featurepenalization which could also be employed as heuristics for filter pruning
