Bi-linear feature learning models, like the gated autoencoder, were proposed as a way to model relationships between frames in a video. By minimizing reconstruction error of one frame, given the previous frame, these models learn mapping units that encode the transformations inherent in a sequence, and thereby learn to encode motion. In this work we extend bi-linear models by introducing higher-order mapping units that allow us to encode transformations between frames and transformations between transformations. We show that this makes it possible to encode temporal structure that is more complex and longer-range than the structure captured within standard bi-linear models. We also show that a natural way to train the model is by replacing the commonly used reconstruction objective with a prediction objective which forces the model to correctly predict the evolution of the input multiple steps into the future. Learning can be achieved by back-propagating the multi-step prediction through time. We test the model on various temporal prediction tasks, and show that higher-order mappings and predictive training both yield a significant improvement over bi-linear models in terms of prediction accuracy.

In Multiple Instance learning (MIL), weak labels are provided at the bag level with only presence/absence information known. However, there is a considerable gap in performance in comparison to a fully supervised model, limiting the practical applica bility of MIL approaches. Thus, this paper introduces a novel semi-weak label learning paradigm as a middle ground to mitigate the problem. We define semi-weak label data as data where we know the presence or absence of a given class and the exact count of each class as opposed to knowing the label proportions. We then propose a two-stage framework to address the problem of learning from semi-weak labels. It leverages the fact that counting information is non-negative and discrete. Experiments are conducted on generated samples from CIFAR-10. We compare our model with a fully-supervised setting baseline, a weakly-supervised setting baseline and learning from pro-portion (LLP) baseline. Our framework not only outperforms both baseline models for MIL-based weakly super-vised setting and learning from proportion setting, but also gives comparable results compared to the fully supervised model. Further, we conduct thorough ablation studies to analyze across datasets and variation with batch size, losses architectural changes, bag size and regularization
In this work, we investigate semi-supervised learning (SSL) for image classification using adversarial training. Previous results have illustrated that generative adversarial networks (GANs) can be used for multiple purposes. Triple-GAN, which aims t o jointly optimize model components by incorporating three players, generates suitable image-label pairs to compensate for the lack of labeled data in SSL with improved benchmark performance. Conversely, Bad (or complementary) GAN, optimizes generation to produce complementary data-label pairs and force a classifiers decision boundary to lie between data manifolds. Although it generally outperforms Triple-GAN, Bad GAN is highly sensitive to the amount of labeled data used for training. Unifying these two approaches, we present unified-GAN (UGAN), a novel framework that enables a classifier to simultaneously learn from both good and bad samples through adversarial training. We perform extensive experiments on various datasets and demonstrate that UGAN: 1) achieves state-of-the-art performance among other deep generative models, and 2) is robust to variations in the amount of labeled data used for training.
The quality of data representation in deep learning methods is directly related to the prior model imposed on the representations; however, generally used fixed priors are not capable of adjusting to the context in the data. To address this issue, we propose deep predictive coding networks, a hierarchical generative model that empirically alters priors on the latent representations in a dynamic and context-sensitive manner. This model captures the temporal dependencies in time-varying signals and uses top-down information to modulate the representation in lower layers. The centerpiece of our model is a novel procedure to infer sparse states of a dynamic model which is used for feature extraction. We also extend this feature extraction block to introduce a pooling function that captures locally invariant representations. When applied on a natural video data, we show that our method is able to learn high-level visual features. We also demonstrate the role of the top-down connections by showing the robustness of the proposed model to structured noise.
Incorporating relational reasoning into neural networks has greatly expanded their capabilities and scope. One defining trait of relational reasoning is that it operates on a set of entities, as opposed to standard vector representations. Existing en d-to-end approaches typically extract entities from inputs by directly interpreting the latent feature representations as a set. We show that these approaches do not respect set permutational invariance and thus have fundamental representational limitations. To resolve this limitation, we propose a simple and general network module called a Set Refiner Network (SRN). We first use synthetic image experiments to demonstrate how our approach effectively decomposes objects without explicit supervision. Then, we insert our module into existing relational reasoning models and show that respecting set invariance leads to substantial gains in prediction performance and robustness on several relational reasoning tasks.
Novelty detection in discrete sequences is a challenging task, since deviations from the process generating the normal data are often small or intentionally hidden. Novelties can be detected by modeling normal sequences and measuring the deviations o f a new sequence from the model predictions. However, in many applications data is generated by several distinct processes so that models trained on all the data tend to over-generalize and novelties remain undetected. We propose to approach this challenge through decomposition: by clustering the data we break down the problem, obtaining simpler modeling task in each cluster which can be modeled more accurately. However, this comes at a trade-off, since the amount of training data per cluster is reduced. This is a particular problem for discrete sequences where state-of-the-art models are data-hungry. The success of this approach thus depends on the quality of the clustering, i.e., whether the individual learning problems are sufficiently simpler than the joint problem. While clustering discrete sequences automatically is a challenging and domain-specific task, it is often easy for human domain experts, given the right tools. In this paper, we adapt a state-of-the-art visual analytics tool for discrete sequence clustering to obtain informed clusters from domain experts and use LSTMs to model each cluster individually. Our extensive empirical evaluation indicates that this informed clustering outperforms automatic ones and that our approach outperforms state-of-the-art novelty detection methods for discrete sequences in three real-world application scenarios. In particular, decomposition outperforms a global model despite less training data on each individual cluster.
