Multi-Adversarial Domain Adaptation
Recent advances in deep domain adaptation reveal that adversarial learning
can be embedded into deep networks to learn transferable features that reduce
distribution discrepancy between the source and target domains. Existing domain
adversarial adaptation methods based on single domain discriminator only align
the source and target data distributions without exploiting the complex
multimode structures. In this paper, we present a multi-adversarial domain
adaptation (MADA) approach, which captures multimode structures to enable
fine-grained alignment of different data distributions based on multiple domain
discriminators. The adaptation can be achieved by stochastic gradient descent
with the gradients computed by back-propagation in linear-time. Empirical
evidence demonstrates that the proposed model outperforms state of the art
methods on standard domain adaptation datasets.Comment: AAAI 2018 Oral. arXiv admin note: substantial text overlap with

Brain Tumor Segmentation with Deep Neural Networks
In this paper, we present a fully automatic brain tumor segmentation method
based on Deep Neural Networks (DNNs). The proposed networks are tailored to
glioblastomas (both low and high grade) pictured in MR images. By their very
nature, these tumors can appear anywhere in the brain and have almost any kind
of shape, size, and contrast. These reasons motivate our exploration of a
machine learning solution that exploits a flexible, high capacity DNN while
being extremely efficient. Here, we give a description of different model
choices that we've found to be necessary for obtaining competitive performance.
We explore in particular different architectures based on Convolutional Neural
Networks (CNN), i.e. DNNs specifically adapted to image data.
We present a novel CNN architecture which differs from those traditionally
used in computer vision. Our CNN exploits both local features as well as more
global contextual features simultaneously. Also, different from most
traditional uses of CNNs, our networks use a final layer that is a
convolutional implementation of a fully connected layer which allows a 40 fold
speed up. We also describe a 2-phase training procedure that allows us to
tackle difficulties related to the imbalance of tumor labels. Finally, we
explore a cascade architecture in which the output of a basic CNN is treated as
an additional source of information for a subsequent CNN. Results reported on
the 2013 BRATS test dataset reveal that our architecture improves over the
currently published state-of-the-art while being over 30 times faster
Thirty Years of Machine Learning: The Road to Pareto-Optimal Wireless Networks
Future wireless networks have a substantial potential in terms of supporting
a broad range of complex compelling applications both in military and civilian
fields, where the users are able to enjoy high-rate, low-latency, low-cost and
reliable information services. Achieving this ambitious goal requires new radio
techniques for adaptive learning and intelligent decision making because of the
complex heterogeneous nature of the network structures and wireless services.
Machine learning (ML) algorithms have great success in supporting big data
analytics, efficient parameter estimation and interactive decision making.
Hence, in this article, we review the thirty-year history of ML by elaborating
on supervised learning, unsupervised learning, reinforcement learning and deep
learning. Furthermore, we investigate their employment in the compelling
applications of wireless networks, including heterogeneous networks (HetNets),
cognitive radios (CR), Internet of things (IoT), machine to machine networks
(M2M), and so on. This article aims for assisting the readers in clarifying the
motivation and methodology of the various ML algorithms, so as to invoke them
for hitherto unexplored services as well as scenarios of future wireless
networks.Comment: 46 pages, 22 fig
Machine learning for fiber nonlinearity mitigation in long-haul coherent optical transmission systems
Fiber nonlinearities from Kerr effect are considered as major constraints for enhancing the transmission capacity in current optical transmission systems. Digital nonlinearity compensation techniques such as digital backpropagation can perform well but require high computing resources. Machine learning can provide a low complexity capability especially for high-dimensional classification problems. Recently several supervised and unsupervised machine learning techniques have been investigated in the field of fiber nonlinearity mitigation. This paper offers a brief review of the principles, performance and complexity of these machine learning approaches in the application of nonlinearity mitigation
Common Representation Learning Using Step-based Correlation Multi-Modal CNN
Deep learning techniques have been successfully used in learning a common
representation for multi-view data, wherein the different modalities are
projected onto a common subspace. In a broader perspective, the techniques used
to investigate common representation learning falls under the categories of
canonical correlation-based approaches and autoencoder based approaches. In
this paper, we investigate the performance of deep autoencoder based methods on
multi-view data. We propose a novel step-based correlation multi-modal CNN
(CorrMCNN) which reconstructs one view of the data given the other while
increasing the interaction between the representations at each hidden layer or
every intermediate step. Finally, we evaluate the performance of the proposed
model on two benchmark datasets - MNIST and XRMB. Through extensive
experiments, we find that the proposed model achieves better performance than
the current state-of-the-art techniques on joint common representation learning
and transfer learning tasks.Comment: Accepted in Asian Conference of Pattern Recognition (ACPR-2017
