This paper will describe and analyze a new phenomenon that was not known before, which we call "Early Transferability". Its essence is that the adversarial perturbations transfer among different networks even at extremely early stages in their training. In fact, one can initialize two networks with two different independent choices of random weights and measure the angle between their adversarial perturbations after each step of the training. What we discovered was that these two adversarial directions started to align with each other already after the first few training steps (which typically use only a small fraction of the available training data), even though the accuracy of the two networks hadn't started to improve from their initial bad values due to the early stage of the training. The purpose of this paper is to present this phenomenon experimentally and propose plausible explanations for some of its properties.

Sparsity-based methods have a long history in the field of signal processing and have been successfully applied to various image reconstruction problems. The involved sparsifying transformations or dictionaries are typically either pre-trained using a model which reflects the assumed properties of the signals or adaptively learned during the reconstruction - yielding so-called blind Compressed Sensing approaches. However, by doing so, the transforms are never explicitly trained in conjunction with the physical model which generates the signals. In addition, properly choosing the involved regularization parameters remains a challenging task. Another recently emerged training-paradigm for regularization methods is to use iterative neural networks (INNs) - also known as unrolled networks - which contain the physical model. In this work, we construct an INN which can be used as a supervised and physics-informed online convolutional dictionary learning algorithm. We evaluated the proposed approach by applying it to a realistic large-scale dynamic MR reconstruction problem and compared it to several other recently published works. We show that the proposed INN improves over two conventional model-agnostic training methods and yields competitive results also compared to a deep INN. Further, it does not require to choose the regularization parameters and - in contrast to deep INNs - each network component is entirely interpretable.

The dynamic membrane potential threshold, as one of the essential properties of a biological neuron, is a spontaneous regulation mechanism that maintains neuronal homeostasis, i.e., the constant overall spiking firing rate of a neuron. As such, the neuron firing rate is regulated by a dynamic spiking threshold, which has been extensively studied in biology. Existing work in the machine learning community does not employ bioplausible spiking threshold schemes. This work aims at bridging this gap by introducing a novel bioinspired dynamic energy-temporal threshold (BDETT) scheme for spiking neural networks (SNNs). The proposed BDETT scheme mirrors two bioplausible observations: a dynamic threshold has 1) a positive correlation with the average membrane potential and 2) a negative correlation with the preceding rate of depolarization. We validate the effectiveness of the proposed BDETT on robot obstacle avoidance and continuous control tasks under both normal conditions and various degraded conditions, including noisy observations, weights, and dynamic environments. We find that the BDETT outperforms existing static and heuristic threshold approaches by significant margins in all tested conditions, and we confirm that the proposed bioinspired dynamic threshold scheme offers bioplausible homeostasis to SNNs in complex real-world tasks.

Adversarial examples, which are usually generated for specific inputs with a specific model, are ubiquitous for neural networks. In this paper we unveil a surprising property of adversarial noises when they are put together, i.e., adversarial noises crafted by one-step gradient methods are linearly separable if equipped with the corresponding labels. We theoretically prove this property for a two-layer network with randomly initialized entries and the neural tangent kernel setup where the parameters are not far from initialization. The proof idea is to show the label information can be efficiently backpropagated to the input while keeping the linear separability. Our theory and experimental evidence further show that the linear classifier trained with the adversarial noises of the training data can well classify the adversarial noises of the test data, indicating that adversarial noises actually inject a distributional perturbation to the original data distribution. Furthermore, we empirically demonstrate that the adversarial noises may become less linearly separable when the above conditions are compromised while they are still much easier to classify than original features.

Learning interpretable representations of neural dynamics at a population level is a crucial first step to understanding how neural activity relates to perception and behavior. Models of neural dynamics often focus on either low-dimensional projections of neural activity, or on learning dynamical systems that explicitly relate to the neural state over time. We discuss how these two approaches are interrelated by considering dynamical systems as representative of flows on a low-dimensional manifold. Building on this concept, we propose a new decomposed dynamical system model that represents complex non-stationary and nonlinear dynamics of time-series data as a sparse combination of simpler, more interpretable components. The decomposed nature of the dynamics generalizes over previous switched approaches and enables modeling of overlapping and non-stationary drifts in the dynamics. We further present a dictionary learning-driven approach to model fitting, where we leverage recent results in tracking sparse vectors over time. We demonstrate that our model can learn efficient representations and smooth transitions between dynamical modes in both continuous-time and discrete-time examples. We show results on low-dimensional linear and nonlinear attractors to demonstrate that our decomposed dynamical systems model can well approximate nonlinear dynamics. Additionally, we apply our model to C. elegans data, illustrating a diversity of dynamics that is obscured when classified into discrete states.

Millimeter-wave and terahertz systems rely on beamforming/combining codebooks for finding the best beam directions during the initial access procedure. Existing approaches suffer from large codebook sizes and high beam searching overhead in the presence of mobile devices. To alleviate this problem, we suggest utilizing the similarity of the channel in adjacent locations to divide the UE trajectory into a set of separate regions and maintain a set of candidate paths for each region in a database. In this paper, we show the tradeoff between the number of regions and the signalling overhead, i.e., higher number of regions corresponds to higher signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) but also higher signalling overhead for the database. We then propose an optimization framework to find the minimum number of regions based on the trajectory of a mobile device. Using realistic ray tracing datasets, we demonstrate that the proposed method reduces the beam searching complexity and latency while providing high SNR.

The growing energy and performance costs of deep learning have driven the community to reduce the size of neural networks by selectively pruning components. Similarly to their biological counterparts, sparse networks generalize just as well, if not better than, the original dense networks. Sparsity can reduce the memory footprint of regular networks to fit mobile devices, as well as shorten training time for ever growing networks. In this paper, we survey prior work on sparsity in deep learning and provide an extensive tutorial of sparsification for both inference and training. We describe approaches to remove and add elements of neural networks, different training strategies to achieve model sparsity, and mechanisms to exploit sparsity in practice. Our work distills ideas from more than 300 research papers and provides guidance to practitioners who wish to utilize sparsity today, as well as to researchers whose goal is to push the frontier forward. We include the necessary background on mathematical methods in sparsification, describe phenomena such as early structure adaptation, the intricate relations between sparsity and the training process, and show techniques for achieving acceleration on real hardware. We also define a metric of pruned parameter efficiency that could serve as a baseline for comparison of different sparse networks. We close by speculating on how sparsity can improve future workloads and outline major open problems in the field.

Modeling multivariate time series has long been a subject that has attracted researchers from a diverse range of fields including economics, finance, and traffic. A basic assumption behind multivariate time series forecasting is that its variables depend on one another but, upon looking closely, it is fair to say that existing methods fail to fully exploit latent spatial dependencies between pairs of variables. In recent years, meanwhile, graph neural networks (GNNs) have shown high capability in handling relational dependencies. GNNs require well-defined graph structures for information propagation which means they cannot be applied directly for multivariate time series where the dependencies are not known in advance. In this paper, we propose a general graph neural network framework designed specifically for multivariate time series data. Our approach automatically extracts the uni-directed relations among variables through a graph learning module, into which external knowledge like variable attributes can be easily integrated. A novel mix-hop propagation layer and a dilated inception layer are further proposed to capture the spatial and temporal dependencies within the time series. The graph learning, graph convolution, and temporal convolution modules are jointly learned in an end-to-end framework. Experimental results show that our proposed model outperforms the state-of-the-art baseline methods on 3 of 4 benchmark datasets and achieves on-par performance with other approaches on two traffic datasets which provide extra structural information.

Model-agnostic meta-learners aim to acquire meta-learned parameters from similar tasks to adapt to novel tasks from the same distribution with few gradient updates. With the flexibility in the choice of models, those frameworks demonstrate appealing performance on a variety of domains such as few-shot image classification and reinforcement learning. However, one important limitation of such frameworks is that they seek a common initialization shared across the entire task distribution, substantially limiting the diversity of the task distributions that they are able to learn from. In this paper, we augment MAML with the capability to identify the mode of tasks sampled from a multimodal task distribution and adapt quickly through gradient updates. Specifically, we propose a multimodal MAML (MMAML) framework, which is able to modulate its meta-learned prior parameters according to the identified mode, allowing more efficient fast adaptation. We evaluate the proposed model on a diverse set of few-shot learning tasks, including regression, image classification, and reinforcement learning. The results not only demonstrate the effectiveness of our model in modulating the meta-learned prior in response to the characteristics of tasks but also show that training on a multimodal distribution can produce an improvement over unimodal training.

Humans and animals have the ability to continually acquire, fine-tune, and transfer knowledge and skills throughout their lifespan. This ability, referred to as lifelong learning, is mediated by a rich set of neurocognitive mechanisms that together contribute to the development and specialization of our sensorimotor skills as well as to long-term memory consolidation and retrieval. Consequently, lifelong learning capabilities are crucial for autonomous agents interacting in the real world and processing continuous streams of information. However, lifelong learning remains a long-standing challenge for machine learning and neural network models since the continual acquisition of incrementally available information from non-stationary data distributions generally leads to catastrophic forgetting or interference. This limitation represents a major drawback for state-of-the-art deep neural network models that typically learn representations from stationary batches of training data, thus without accounting for situations in which information becomes incrementally available over time. In this review, we critically summarize the main challenges linked to lifelong learning for artificial learning systems and compare existing neural network approaches that alleviate, to different extents, catastrophic forgetting. We discuss well-established and emerging research motivated by lifelong learning factors in biological systems such as structural plasticity, memory replay, curriculum and transfer learning, intrinsic motivation, and multisensory integration.
