We study the problem of creating strong, yet narrow, AI systems. While recent AI progress has been driven by the training of large general-purpose foundation models, the creation of smaller models specialized for narrow domains could be…
Random Neural Networks (RNNs) are a class of Neural Networks (NNs) that can also be seen as a specific type of queuing network. They have been successfully used in several domains during the last 25 years, as queuing networks to analyze the…
We study deep neural networks (DNNs) trained on natural image data with entirely random labels. Despite its popularity in the literature, where it is often used to study memorization, generalization, and other phenomena, little is known…
It is common knowledge that the quantity and quality of the training data play a significant role in the creation of a good machine learning model. In this paper, we take it one step further and demonstrate that the way the training…
Graph Convolutional Networks (GCNs) have achieved impressive empirical advancement across a wide variety of semi-supervised node classification tasks. Despite their great success, training GCNs on large graphs suffers from computational and…
Curriculum reinforcement learning (CRL) improves the learning speed and stability of an agent by exposing it to a tailored series of tasks throughout learning. Despite empirical successes, an open question in CRL is how to automatically…

Although the neural network (NN) technique plays an important role in machine learning, understanding the mechanism of NN models and the transparency of deep learning still require more basic research. In this study, we propose a novel…
The Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) model, often used for image classification, requires significant training time to obtain high accuracy. To this end, distributed training is performed with the parameter server (PS) architecture using…
Deep neural networks use multiple layers of functions to map an object represented by an input vector progressively to different representations, and with sufficient training, eventually to a single score for each class that is the output…
The order of training samples can have a significant impact on the performance of a classifier. Curriculum learning is a method of ordering training samples from easy to hard. This paper proposes the novel idea of a curriculum learning…
Given data with label noise (i.e., incorrect data), deep neural networks would gradually memorize the label noise and impair model performance. To relieve this issue, curriculum learning is proposed to improve model performance and…
To reduce the overwhelming size of Deep Neural Networks (DNN) teacher-student methodology tries to transfer knowledge from a complex teacher network to a simple student network. We instead propose a novel method called the teacher-class…
There exists a distribution discrepancy between training and testing, in the way images are fed to modern CNNs. Recent work tried to bridge this gap either by fine-tuning or re-training the network at different resolutions. However…
We introduce a new procedure for training of artificial neural networks by using the approximation of an objective function by arithmetic mean of an ensemble of selected randomly generated neural networks, and apply this procedure to the…
Modern deep-learning training is not memoryless. Updates depend on optimizer moments and averaging, data-order policies (random reshuffling vs with-replacement, staged augmentations and replay), the nonconvex path, and auxiliary state…
Machine Learning with deep neural networks has transformed computational approaches to scientific and engineering problems. Central to many of these advancements are precisely tuned neural architectures that are tailored to the domains in…
Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) Networks and Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) have become very common and are used in many fields as they were effective in solving many problems where the general neural networks were inefficient. They were…
We address two questions for training a convolutional neural network (CNN) for hyperspectral image classification: i) is it possible to build a pre-trained network? and ii) is the pre-training effective in furthering the performance? To…
Training deep neural networks is a very demanding task, especially challenging is how to adapt architectures to improve the performance of trained models. We can find that sometimes, shallow networks generalize better than deep networks,…
