A grand challenge in representation learning is to learn the different explanatory factors of variation behind the high dimen- sional data. Encoder models are often determined to optimize performance on training data when the real objective…

This paper proposes an information-theoretic representation learning framework, named conditional information flow maximization, to extract noise-invariant sufficient representations for the input data and target task. It promotes the…

In this paper, we focus on the unsupervised setting for structure learning of deep neural networks and propose to adopt the efficient coding principle, rooted in information theory and developed in computational neuroscience, to guide the…

Multiple Description Coding (MDC) is an error-resilient source coding method designed for transmission over noisy channels. We present a novel MDC scheme employing a neural network based on implicit neural representation. This involves…

Multi-modal Contrastive Representation learning aims to encode different modalities into a semantically aligned shared space. This paradigm shows remarkable generalization ability on numerous downstream tasks across various modalities.…

For high-dimensional classification, it is well known that naively performing the Fisher discriminant rule leads to poor results due to diverging spectra and noise accumulation. Therefore, researchers proposed independence rules to…

In complex visual recognition tasks it is typical to adopt multiple descriptors, that describe different aspects of the images, for obtaining an improved recognition performance. Descriptors that have diverse forms can be fused into a…

Multi-view learning accomplishes the task objectives of classification by leverag-ing the relationships between different views of the same object. Most existing methods usually focus on consistency and complementarity between multiple…

Representation learning is currently a very hot topic in modern machine learning, mostly due to the great success of the deep learning methods. In particular low-dimensional representation which discriminates classes can not only enhance…

The information bottleneck principle is an elegant and useful approach to representation learning. In this paper, we investigate the problem of representation learning in the context of reinforcement learning using the information…

High dimensional data analysis for exploration and discovery includes three fundamental tasks: dimensionality reduction, clustering, and visualization. When the three associated tasks are done separately, as is often the case thus far,…

The model of low-dimensional manifold and sparse representation are two well-known concise models that suggest each data can be described by a few characteristics. Manifold learning is usually investigated for dimension reduction by…

The measure between heterogeneous data is still an open problem. Many research works have been developed to learn a common subspace where the similarity between different modalities can be calculated directly. However, most of existing…

Representation learning aims to extract meaningful lower-dimensional embeddings from data, known as representations. Despite its widespread application, there is no established definition of a ``good'' representation. Typically, the…

Maximum correntropy criterion regression (MCCR) models have been well studied within the frame of statistical learning when the scale parameters take fixed values or go to infinity. This paper studies the MCCR models with tending-to-zero…

We introduce Invariant Risk Minimization (IRM), a learning paradigm to estimate invariant correlations across multiple training distributions. To achieve this goal, IRM learns a data representation such that the optimal classifier, on top…

Recent advances in unsupervised representation learning often rely on knowing the number of classes to improve feature extraction and clustering. However, this assumption raises an important question: is the number of classes always…

Multi-view representation learning aims to capture comprehensive information from multiple views of a shared context. Recent works intuitively apply contrastive learning to different views in a pairwise manner, which is still scalable:…

Sparse coding has been popularly used as an effective data representation method in various applications, such as computer vision, medical imaging and bioinformatics, etc. However, the conventional sparse coding algorithms and its manifold…

Molecular Representation Learning (MRL) has emerged as a powerful tool for drug and materials discovery in a variety of tasks such as virtual screening and inverse design. While there has been a surge of interest in advancing model-centric…
