Predicting user positive response (e.g., purchases and clicks) probability is a critical task in Web applications. To identify predictive features from raw data, the state-of-the-art extreme deep factorization machine (xDeepFM) model introduces a compressed interaction network (CIN) to leverage feature interactions at the vector-wise level explicitly. However, since each hidden layer in CIN is a collection of feature maps, it can be viewed essentially as an ensemble of different feature maps. In this case, only using a single objective to minimize the prediction loss may lead to overfitting. In this paper, an ensemble diversity enhanced extreme deep factorization machine model (DexDeepFM) is proposed, which introduces the ensemble diversity measure in CIN and considers both ensemble diversity and prediction accuracy in the objective function. In addition, the attention mechanism is introduced to discriminate the importance of ensemble diversity measures with different feature interaction orders. Extensive experiments on two public real-world datasets show the superiority of the proposed model.

Ensembles of models have been empirically shown to improve predictive performance and to yield robust measures of uncertainty. However, they are expensive in computation and memory. Therefore, recent research has focused on distilling ensembles into a single compact model, reducing the computational and memory burden of the ensemble while trying to preserve its predictive behavior. Most existing distillation formulations summarize the ensemble by capturing its average predictions. As a result, the diversity of the ensemble predictions, stemming from each member, is lost. Thus, the distilled model cannot provide a measure of uncertainty comparable to that of the original ensemble. To retain more faithfully the diversity of the ensemble, we propose a distillation method based on a single multi-headed neural network, which we refer to as Hydra. The shared body network learns a joint feature representation that enables each head to capture the predictive behavior of each ensemble member. We demonstrate that with a slight increase in parameter count, Hydra improves distillation performance on classification and regression settings while capturing the uncertainty behavior of the original ensemble over both in-domain and out-of-distribution tasks.
The current state-of-the-art deep neural networks (DNNs) for Alzheimers Disease diagnosis use different biomarker combinations to classify patients, but do not allow extracting knowledge about the interactions of biomarkers. However, to improve our u nderstanding of the disease, it is paramount to extract such knowledge from the learned model. In this paper, we propose a Deep Factorization Machine model that combines the ability of DNNs to learn complex relationships and the ease of interpretability of a linear model. The proposed model has three parts: (i) an embedding layer to deal with sparse categorical data, (ii) a Factorization Machine to efficiently learn pairwise interactions, and (iii) a DNN to implicitly model higher order interactions. In our experiments on data from the Alzheimers Disease Neuroimaging Initiative, we demonstrate that our proposed model classifies cognitive normal, mild cognitive impaired, and demented patients more accurately than competing models. In addition, we show that valuable knowledge about the interactions among biomarkers can be obtained.

Ensemble learning is a methodology that integrates multiple DNN learners for improving prediction performance of individual learners. Diversity is greater when the errors of the ensemble prediction is more uniformly distributed. Greater diversity is highly correlated with the increase in ensemble accuracy. Another attractive property of diversity optimized ensemble learning is its robustness against deception: an adversarial perturbation attack can mislead one DNN model to misclassify but may not fool other ensemble DNN members consistently. In this paper we first give an overview of the concept of ensemble diversity and examine the three types of ensemble diversity in the context of DNN classifiers. We then describe a set of ensemble diversity measures, a suite of algorithms for creating diversity ensembles and for performing ensemble consensus (voted or learned) for generating high accuracy ensemble output by strategically combining outputs of individual members. This paper concludes with a discussion on a set of open issues in quantifying ensemble diversity for robust deep learning.
Adversarial Transferability is an intriguing property of adversarial examples -- a perturbation that is crafted against one model is also effective against another model, which may arise from a different model family or training process. To better pr otect ML systems against adversarial attacks, several questions are raised: what are the sufficient conditions for adversarial transferability? Is it possible to bound such transferability? Is there a way to reduce the transferability in order to improve the robustness of an ensemble ML model? To answer these questions, we first theoretically analyze sufficient conditions for transferability between models and propose a practical algorithm to reduce transferability within an ensemble to improve its robustness. Our theoretical analysis shows only the orthogonality between gradients of different models is not enough to ensure low adversarial transferability: the model smoothness is also an important factor. In particular, we provide a lower/upper bound of adversarial transferability based on model gradient similarity for low risk classifiers based on gradient orthogonality and model smoothness. We demonstrate that under the condition of gradient orthogonality, smoother classifiers will guarantee lower adversarial transferability. Furthermore, we propose an effective Transferability Reduced Smooth-ensemble(TRS) training strategy to train a robust ensemble with low transferability by enforcing model smoothness and gradient orthogonality between base models. We conduct extensive experiments on TRS by comparing with other state-of-the-art baselines on different datasets, showing that the proposed TRS outperforms all baselines significantly. We believe our analysis on adversarial transferability will inspire future research towards developing robust ML models taking these adversarial transferability properties into account.

Though deep neural networks have achieved significant progress on various tasks, often enhanced by model ensemble, existing high-performance models can be vulnerable to adversarial attacks. Many efforts have been devoted to enhancing the robustness o f individual networks and then constructing a straightforward ensemble, e.g., by directly averaging the outputs, which ignores the interaction among networks. This paper presents a new method that explores the interaction among individual networks to improve robustness for ensemble models. Technically, we define a new notion of ensemble diversity in the adversarial setting as the diversity among non-maximal predictions of individual members, and present an adaptive diversity promoting (ADP) regularizer to encourage the diversity, which leads to globally better robustness for the ensemble by making adversarial examples difficult to transfer among individual members. Our method is computationally efficient and compatible with the defense methods acting on individual networks. Empirical results on various datasets verify that our method can improve adversarial robustness while maintaining state-of-the-art accuracy on normal examples.
