Boosted Generative Models
We propose a novel approach for using unsupervised boosting to create an
ensemble of generative models, where models are trained in sequence to correct
earlier mistakes. Our meta-algorithmic framework can leverage any existing base
learner that permits likelihood evaluation, including recent deep expressive
models. Further, our approach allows the ensemble to include discriminative
models trained to distinguish real data from model-generated data. We show
theoretical conditions under which incorporating a new model in the ensemble
will improve the fit and empirically demonstrate the effectiveness of our
black-box boosting algorithms on density estimation, classification, and sample
generation on benchmark datasets for a wide range of generative models.Comment: AAAI 201
A Survey on Deep Learning in Medical Image Analysis
Deep learning algorithms, in particular convolutional networks, have rapidly
become a methodology of choice for analyzing medical images. This paper reviews
the major deep learning concepts pertinent to medical image analysis and
summarizes over 300 contributions to the field, most of which appeared in the
last year. We survey the use of deep learning for image classification, object
detection, segmentation, registration, and other tasks and provide concise
overviews of studies per application area. Open challenges and directions for
future research are discussed.Comment: Revised survey includes expanded discussion section and reworked
introductory section on common deep architectures. Added missed papers from
before Feb 1st 201
Ensemble deep learning: A review
Ensemble learning combines several individual models to obtain better
generalization performance. Currently, deep learning models with multilayer
processing architecture is showing better performance as compared to the
shallow or traditional classification models. Deep ensemble learning models
combine the advantages of both the deep learning models as well as the ensemble
learning such that the final model has better generalization performance. This
paper reviews the state-of-art deep ensemble models and hence serves as an
extensive summary for the researchers. The ensemble models are broadly
categorised into ensemble models like bagging, boosting and stacking, negative
correlation based deep ensemble models, explicit/implicit ensembles,
homogeneous /heterogeneous ensemble, decision fusion strategies, unsupervised,
semi-supervised, reinforcement learning and online/incremental, multilabel
based deep ensemble models. Application of deep ensemble models in different
domains is also briefly discussed. Finally, we conclude this paper with some
future recommendations and research directions
