Kavli Affiliate: Yi Zhou | First 5 Authors: Shaocong Ma, Ziyi Chen, Yi Zhou, Kaiyi Ji, Yingbin Liang | Summary: Conventional machine learning applications typically assume that data samples are independently and identically distributed (i.i.d.). However, practical scenarios often involve a data-generating process that produces highly dependent data samples, which are known to heavily bias […]
Kavli Affiliate: Yi Zhou | First 5 Authors: Ziyi Chen, Bhavya Kailkhura, Yi Zhou, , | Summary: Many important machine learning applications involve regularized nonconvex bi-level optimization. However, the existing gradient-based bi-level optimization algorithms cannot handle nonconvex or nonsmooth regularizers, and they suffer from a high computation complexity in nonconvex bi-level optimization. In this work, […]

Kavli Affiliate: Cheng Peng | First 5 Authors: Tianyi Hao, Xuxin Huang, Chunjing Jia, Cheng Peng, | Summary: Combinatorial optimization is of general interest for both theoretical study and real-world applications. Fast-developing quantum algorithms provide a different perspective on solving combinatorial optimization problems. In this paper, we propose a quantum inspired algorithm for general locally […]

Kavli Affiliate: Zheng Zhu | First 5 Authors: Qingping Zheng, Jiankang Deng, Zheng Zhu, Ying Li, Stefanos Zafeiriou | Summary: This paper probes intrinsic factors behind typical failure cases (e.g. spatial inconsistency and boundary confusion) produced by the existing state-of-the-art method in face parsing. To tackle these problems, we propose a novel Decoupled Multi-task Learning […]
Kavli Affiliate: Yi Zhou | First 5 Authors: Lei Huang, Yi Zhou, Tian Wang, Jie Luo, Xianglong Liu | Summary: Batch normalization (BN) is a milestone technique in deep learning. It normalizes the activation using mini-batch statistics during training but the estimated population statistics during inference. This paper focuses on investigating the estimation of population […]
Kavli Affiliate: Yi Zhou | First 5 Authors: Yi Zhou, Masahiro Kaneko, Danushka Bollegala, , | Summary: Sense embedding learning methods learn different embeddings for the different senses of an ambiguous word. One sense of an ambiguous word might be socially biased while its other senses remain unbiased. In comparison to the numerous prior work […]
Kavli Affiliate: Yi Zhou | First 5 Authors: Rong-Yang Sun, Hui-Ke Jin, Hong-Hao Tu, Yi Zhou, | Summary: The nature of the ground state for the $S = 1/2$ kagome Heisenberg antiferromagnet (KHAF) has been elusive. We revisit this challenging problem and provide numerical evidence that its ground state might be a chiral spin liquid. […]
Kavli Affiliate: Zheng Zhu | First 5 Authors: Ming Wang, Beibei Lin, Xianda Guo, Lincheng Li, Zheng Zhu | Summary: Many gait recognition methods first partition the human gait into N-parts and then combine them to establish part-based feature representations. Their gait recognition performance is often affected by partitioning strategies, which are empirically chosen in […]
