Dimensional data reduction methods are fundamental to explore and visualize large data sets. Basic requirements for unsupervised data exploration are simplicity, flexibility and scalability. However, current methods show complex…

The problem of representing nodes in a signed network as low-dimensional vectors, known as signed network embedding (SNE), has garnered considerable attention in recent years. While several SNE methods based on graph convolutional networks…

Deep neural networks (DNNs) enable innovative applications of machine learning like image recognition, machine translation, or malware detection. However, deep learning is often criticized for its lack of robustness in adversarial settings…

Stochastic neighbor embedding (SNE) and related nonlinear manifold learning algorithms achieve high-quality low-dimensional representations of similarity data, but are notoriously slow to train. We propose a generic formulation of embedding…

Most techniques for explainable machine learning focus on feature attribution, i.e., values are assigned to the features such that their sum equals the prediction. Example attribution is another form of explanation that assigns weights to…

The main flaw of neural network ensembling is that it is exceptionally demanding computationally, especially, if the individual sub-models are large neural networks, which must be trained separately. Having in mind that modern DNNs can be…

Heterogeneous Information Network (HIN) embedding refers to the low-dimensional projections of the HIN nodes that preserve the HIN structure and semantics. HIN embedding has emerged as a promising research field for network analysis as it…

Using a measure of clustering derived from the nearest neighbour distribution and the void probability function we are able to distinguish between regular and clustered structures. With an example we show that regularity is a property of a…

The susceptibility of modern machine learning classifiers to adversarial examples has motivated theoretical results suggesting that these might be unavoidable. However, these results can be too general to be applicable to natural data…

We introduce an improved unsupervised clustering protocol specially suited for large-scale structured data. The protocol follows three steps: a dimensionality reduction of the data, a density estimation over the low dimensional…

The key to out-of-distribution detection is density estimation of the in-distribution data or of its feature representations. This is particularly challenging for dense anomaly detection in domains where the in-distribution data has a…

Explaining the foundations for predictions obtained from graph neural networks (GNNs) is critical for credible use of GNN models for real-world problems. Owing to the rapid growth of GNN applications, recent progress in explaining…

We employ several unsupervised machine learning techniques, including autoencoders, random trees embedding, and t-distributed stochastic neighboring ensemble (t-SNE), to reduce the dimensionality of, and therefore classify, raw (auxiliary)…

We present the self-encoder, a neural network trained to guess the identity of each data sample. Despite its simplicity, it learns a very useful representation of data, in a self-supervised way. Specifically, the self-encoder learns to…

Usual formulations of the clustering coefficient can be shown to be insufficient in the task of describing the local topology of very simple networks. Motivated by this, we review some alternatives in order to present an extension, the…

Cluster analysis of biological samples using gene expression measurements is a common task which aids the discovery of heterogeneous biological sub-populations having distinct mRNA profiles. Several model-based clustering algorithms have…

This paper considers the problem of clustering a collection of unlabeled data points assumed to lie near a union of lower-dimensional planes. As is common in computer vision or unsupervised learning applications, we do not know in advance…

Signed networks are mathematical structures that encode positive and negative relations between entities such as friend/foe or trust/distrust. Recently, several papers studied the construction of useful low-dimensional representations…

Several machine learning models, including neural networks, consistently misclassify adversarial examples---inputs formed by applying small but intentionally worst-case perturbations to examples from the dataset, such that the perturbed…

The use of deep neural network (DNN) autoencoders (AEs) has recently exploded due to their wide applicability. However, the embedding representation produced by a standard DNN AE that is trained to minimize only the reconstruction error…
