The Forward-Forward (FF) algorithm was recently proposed as a local learning method to address the limitations of backpropagation (BP), offering biological plausibility along with memory-efficient and highly parallelized computational…

After showing the efficiency of feedforward networks to estimate control in high dimension in the global optimization of some storages problems, we develop a modification of an algorithm based on some dynamic programming principle. We show…

This work presents an analysis of the effectiveness of using standard shallow feed-forward networks to mimic the behavior of the attention mechanism in the original Transformer model, a state-of-the-art architecture for sequence-to-sequence…

Transformers with linearised attention (''linear Transformers'') have demonstrated the practical scalability and effectiveness of outer product-based Fast Weight Programmers (FWPs) from the '90s. However, the original FWP formulation is…

The brain cortex, which processes visual, auditory and sensory data in the brain, is known to have many recurrent connections within its layers and from higher to lower layers. But, in the case of machine learning with neural networks, it…

Function regression/approximation is a fundamental application of machine learning. Neural networks (NNs) can be easily trained for function regression using a sufficient number of neurons and epochs. The forward-forward learning algorithm…

We propose a scalable Forward-Forward (FF) algorithm that eliminates the need for backpropagation by training each layer separately. Unlike backpropagation, FF avoids backward gradients and can be more modular and memory efficient, making…

Massive multi-user multiple-input multiple-output (MU-MIMO) enables significant gains in spectral efficiency and link reliability compared to conventional small-scale MIMO technology. Furthermore, linear precoders, e.g., using zero forcing…

Convolutional Neural Networks have dramatically improved in recent years, surpassing human accuracy on certain problems and performance exceeding that of traditional computer vision algorithms. While the compute pattern in itself is…

Although backpropagation is widely accepted as a training algorithm for artificial neural networks, researchers are always looking for inspiration from the brain to find ways with potentially better performance. Forward-Forward is a novel…

This paper proposes a novel federated algorithm that leverages momentum-based variance reduction with adaptive learning to address non-convex settings across heterogeneous data. We intend to minimize communication and computation overhead,…

We address the structure identification and the uniform approximation of sums of ridge functions $f(x)=\sum_{i=1}^m g_i(a_i\cdot x)$ on ${\mathbb R}^d$, representing a general form of a shallow feed-forward neural network, from a small…

In edge inference, an edge server provides remote-inference services to edge devices. This requires the edge devices to upload high-dimensional features of data samples over resource-constrained wireless channels, which creates a…

Given an undirected graph G, the edge orientation problem asks for assigning a direction to each edge to convert G into a directed graph. The aim is to minimize the maximum out degree of a vertex in the resulting directed graph. This…

This paper proposes BRIEF, a backward reduction algorithm that explores compact CNN-model designs from the information flow perspective. This algorithm can remove substantial non-zero weighting parameters (redundant neural channels) of a…

Network backbones provide useful sparse representations of weighted networks by keeping only their most important links, permitting a range of computational speedups and simplifying network visualizations. A key limitation of existing…

This paper evaluates two forwarding strategies for fragmented datagrams in the IoT: hop-wise reassembly and a minimal approach to directly forward fragments. Minimal fragment forwarding is challenged by the lack of forwarding information at…

This paper shows the weighted matching problem on general graphs can be solved in time $O(n(m + n\log n))$ for $n$ and $m$ the number of vertices and edges, respectively. This was previously known only for bipartite graphs. The crux is a…

A recent paper by Boughammoura (2023) describes the back-propagation algorithm in terms of an alternative formulation called the F-adjoint method. In particular, by the F-adjoint algorithm the computation of the loss gradient, with respect…

The goal of this paper is to open up a new research direction aimed at understanding the power of preprocessing in speeding up algorithms that solve NP-hard problems exactly. We explore this direction for the classic Feedback Vertex Set…
