Transfer learning (TL) is a well-established machine learning technique to boost the generalization performance on a specific (target) task using information gained from a related (source) task, and it crucially depends on the ability of a…

The successful training of deep neural networks requires addressing challenges such as overfitting, numerical instabilities leading to divergence, and increasing variance in the residual stream. A common solution is to apply regularization…

A sequential quadratic programming method is designed for solving general smooth nonlinear stochastic optimization problems subject to expectation equality constraints. We consider the setting where the objective and constraint function…

The Cartesian reverse derivative is a categorical generalization of reverse-mode automatic differentiation. We use this operator to generalize several optimization algorithms, including a straightforward generalization of gradient descent…

The determination of the time averages of continuous functions, or discrete time sequences is important for various problems in physics and engineering, and the generalized final-value theorems of the Laplace and z-transforms, relevant to…

We consider a novel way of discretizing wave scattering problems using the general formalism of convolution quadrature, but instead of reducing the timestep size ($h$-method), we achieve accuracy by increasing the order of the method…

The random reshuffling Kaczmarz (RRK) method enjoys the simplicity and efficiency in solving linear systems as a Kaczmarz-type method, whereas it also inherits the practical improvements of the stochastic gradient descent (SGD) with random…

Exploiting higher-order derivatives in convex optimization is known at least since 1970's. In each iteration higher-order (also called tensor) methods minimize a regularized Taylor expansion of the objective function, which leads to faster…

The signature is an infinite graded sequence of statistics known to characterise a stream of data up to a negligible equivalence class. It is a transform which has previously been treated as a fixed feature transformation, on top of which a…

A method of expansion of solutions of singularly perturbed nonlinear systems in power series of small parameters is applied to the popular Lorenz model in synergetics.Simple asymptotic expressions for the solution to the model in…

Large Transformer models routinely achieve state-of-the-art results on a number of tasks but training these models can be prohibitively costly, especially on long sequences. We introduce two techniques to improve the efficiency of…

With the development of new sensors and monitoring devices, more sources of data become available to be used as inputs for machine learning models. These can on the one hand help to improve the accuracy of a model. On the other hand,…

Recently, several optimization methods have been successfully applied to the hyperparameter optimization of deep neural networks (DNNs). The methods work by modeling the joint distribution of hyperparameter values and corresponding error.…

Terahertz (THz) sensing is a promising imaging technology for a wide variety of different applications. Extracting the interpretable and physically meaningful parameters for such applications, however, requires solving an inverse problem in…

The analysis of contours of scalar fields plays an important role in visualization. For example the contour tree and contour statistics can be used as a means for interaction and filtering or as signatures. In the context of tensor field…

Typically, the sequence of points generated by an optimization algorithm may have multiple limit points. Under convexity assumptions, however, (sub)gradient methods are known to generate a convergent sequence of points. In this paper, we…

Stochastic gradient descent (SGD) is almost ubiquitously used for training non-convex optimization tasks. Recently, a hypothesis proposed by Keskar et al. [2017] that large batch methods tend to converge to sharp minimizers has received…

The identification of nonlinear dynamics from observations is essential for the alignment of the theoretical ideas and experimental data. The last, in turn, is often corrupted by the side effects and noise of different natures, so…

The field of transfer learning is undergoing a significant shift with the introduction of large pretrained models which have demonstrated strong adaptability to a variety of downstream tasks. However, the high computational and memory…

This paper introduces the notion of upper-linearizable/quadratizable functions, a class that extends concavity and DR-submodularity in various settings, including monotone and non-monotone cases over different convex sets. A general…
