In the past few years, neural networks have evolved from simple Feedforward Neural Networks to more complex neural networks, such as Convolutional Neural Networks and Recurrent Neural Networks. Where CNNs are a perfect fit for tasks where…

We represent planning as a set of loosely coupled network flow problems, where each network corresponds to one of the state variables in the planning domain. The network nodes correspond to the state variable values and the network arcs…

Designing networks with specified collective properties is useful in a variety of application areas, enabling the study of how given properties affect the behavior of network models, the downscaling of empirical networks to workable sizes,…

We consider the optimization of a network with amplify-and-forward relays. Observing that each relay has a power limit, and hence a non-linear transfer function, we focus on the similarity between relay networks and neural networks. This…

The ever-growing size of neural networks poses serious challenges on resource-constrained devices, such as embedded sensors. Compression algorithms that reduce their size can mitigate these problems, provided that model performance stays…

In this paper, we propose a constrained linear data-feature mapping model as an interpretable mathematical model for image classification using convolutional neural network (CNN) such as the ResNet. From this viewpoint, we establish the…

The goal of minimizing misclassification error on a training set is often just one of several real-world goals that might be defined on different datasets. For example, one may require a classifier to also make positive predictions at some…

Many important multiple-objective decision problems can be cast within the framework of ranking under constraints and solved via a weighted bipartite matching linear program. Some of these optimization problems, such as personalized content…

This paper introduces a framework to capture previously intractable optimization constraints and transform them to a mixed-integer linear program, through the use of neural networks. We encode the feasible space of optimization problems…

In constraint learning, we use a neural network as a surrogate for part of the constraints or of the objective function of an optimization model. However, the tractability of the resulting model is heavily influenced by the size of the…

Optimization for deep networks is currently a very active area of research. As neural networks become deeper, the ability in manually optimizing the network becomes harder. Mini-batch normalization, identification of effective respective…

Recurrent networks are trained to memorize their input better, often in the hopes that such training will increase the ability of the network to predict. We show that networks designed to memorize input can be arbitrarily bad at prediction.…

A recent line of work has shown that an overparametrized neural network can perfectly fit the training data, an otherwise often intractable nonconvex optimization problem. For (fully-connected) shallow networks, in the best case scenario,…

We tackle in this paper an online network resource allocation problem with job transfers. The network is composed of many servers connected by communication links. The system operates in discrete time; at each time slot, the administrator…

Optimizing the assortment of products to display to customers is a key to increasing revenue for both offline and online retailers. To trade-off between exploring customers' preference and exploiting customers' choices learned from data, in…

We explore a new approach for training neural networks where all loss functions are replaced by hard constraints. The same approach is very successful in phase retrieval, where signals are reconstructed from magnitude constraints and…

We consider the problem of reserving link capacity in a network in such a way that any of a given set of flow scenarios can be supported. In the optimal capacity reservation problem, we choose the reserved link capacities to minimize the…

Detectability of failures of linear programming (LP) decoding and its potential for improvement by adding new constraints motivate the use of an adaptive approach in selecting the constraints for the LP problem. In this paper, we make a…

We present a novel approach to modelling and learning vector fields from physical systems using neural networks that explicitly satisfy known linear operator constraints. To achieve this, the target function is modelled as a linear…

We describe a method for utilizing the known structure of input data to make learning more efficient. Our work is in the domain of programming languages, and we use deep neural networks to do program analysis. Computer programs include a…
