Stochastic Optimization for Deep CCA via Nonlinear Orthogonal Iterations
Deep CCA is a recently proposed deep neural network extension to the
traditional canonical correlation analysis (CCA), and has been successful for
multi-view representation learning in several domains. However, stochastic
optimization of the deep CCA objective is not straightforward, because it does
not decouple over training examples. Previous optimizers for deep CCA are
either batch-based algorithms or stochastic optimization using large
minibatches, which can have high memory consumption. In this paper, we tackle
the problem of stochastic optimization for deep CCA with small minibatches,
based on an iterative solution to the CCA objective, and show that we can
achieve as good performance as previous optimizers and thus alleviate the
memory requirement.Comment: in 2015 Annual Allerton Conference on Communication, Control and

End-to-End Kernel Learning with Supervised Convolutional Kernel Networks
In this paper, we introduce a new image representation based on a multilayer
kernel machine. Unlike traditional kernel methods where data representation is
decoupled from the prediction task, we learn how to shape the kernel with
supervision. We proceed by first proposing improvements of the
recently-introduced convolutional kernel networks (CKNs) in the context of
unsupervised learning; then, we derive backpropagation rules to take advantage
of labeled training data. The resulting model is a new type of convolutional
neural network, where optimizing the filters at each layer is equivalent to
learning a linear subspace in a reproducing kernel Hilbert space (RKHS). We
show that our method achieves reasonably competitive performance for image
classification on some standard "deep learning" datasets such as CIFAR-10 and
SVHN, and also for image super-resolution, demonstrating the applicability of
our approach to a large variety of image-related tasks.Comment: to appear in Advances in Neural Information Processing Systems (NIPS
