  • How to Tell Deep Neural Networks What We Know. (arXiv:2107.10295v1 [cs.LG])
    We present a short survey of ways in which existing scientific knowledge are included when constructing models with neural networks. The inclusion of domain-knowledge is of special interest not just to constructing scientific assistants, but also, many other areas that involve understanding data using human-machine collaboration. In many such instances, machine-based model construction may benefit […]
  • Harnessing Geometric Constraints from Emotion Labels to improve Face Verification. (arXiv:2103.03862v3 [cs.CV] UPDATED)
    For the task of face verification, we explore the utility of harnessing auxiliary facial emotion labels to impose explicit geometric constraints on the embedding space when training deep embedding models. We introduce several novel loss functions that, in conjunction with a standard Triplet Loss [43], or ArcFace loss [10], provide geometric constraints on the embedding […]
  • Interpretable Machine Learning Models for Predicting and Explaining Vehicle Fuel Consumption Anomalies. (arXiv:2010.16051v5 [cs.LG] UPDATED)
    Identifying anomalies in the fuel consumption of the vehicles of a fleet is a crucial aspect for optimizing consumption and reduce costs. However, this information alone is insufficient, since fleet operators need to know the causes behind anomalous fuel consumption. We combine unsupervised anomaly detection techniques, domain knowledge and interpretable Machine Learning models for explaining […]

    Embedding static graphs in low-dimensional vector spaces plays a key role in network analytics and inference, supporting applications like node classification, link prediction, and graph visualization. However, many real-world networks present dynamic behavior, including topological evolution, feature evolution, and diffusion. Therefore, several methods for embedding dynamic graphs have been proposed to learn network representations over […]

  • Momentum Residual Neural Networks. (arXiv:2102.07870v3 [cs.LG] UPDATED)
    The training of deep residual neural networks (ResNets) with backpropagation has a memory cost that increases linearly with respect to the depth of the network. A way to circumvent this issue is to use reversible architectures. In this paper, we propose to change the forward rule of a ResNet by adding a momentum term. The […]

In all these scenarios, we tend to resort to Monte Carlo estimates as expectations of kernels are intractable in […]
