Training a deep neural network with a small amount of data is a challenging problem as it is vulnerable to overfitting. However, one of the practical difficulties that we often face is to collect many samples. Transfer learning is a…

Deep structured-prediction energy-based models combine the expressive power of learned representations and the ability of embedding knowledge about the task at hand into the system. A common way to learn parameters of such models consists…

The most widely used form of convolutional sparse coding uses an $\ell_1$ regularization term. While this approach has been successful in a variety of applications, a limitation of the $\ell_1$ penalty is that it is homogeneous across the…

Reinforcement learning is structurally harder than supervised learning because the policy changes the data distribution it learns from. The resulting fragility is especially visible in large-model training, where the training and rollout…

The accurate automated classification of variable stars into their respective sub-types is difficult. Machine learning based solutions often fall foul of the imbalanced learning problem, which causes poor generalisation performance in…

Large scale, streaming datasets are ubiquitous in modern machine learning. Streaming algorithms must be scalable, amenable to incremental training and robust to the presence of non-stationarity. In this work consider the problem of learning…

Regularized regression problems are ubiquitous in statistical modeling, signal processing, and machine learning. Sparse regression in particular has been instrumental in scientific model discovery, including compressed sensing applications,…

Model merging has emerged as a compelling data-free paradigm for multi-task learning, enabling the fusion of multiple fine-tuned models into a single, powerful entity. A key technique in merging methods is sparsification, which prunes…

Most of the recent results in polynomial functional regression have been focused on an in-depth exploration of single-parameter regularization schemes. In contrast, in this study we go beyond that framework by introducing an algorithm for…

Fitting model parameters to experimental data is a common yet often challenging task, especially if the model contains many parameters. Typically, algorithms get lost in regions of parameter space in which the model is unresponsive to…

Overfitting is a well-known issue extending even to state-of-the-art (SOTA) Machine Learning (ML) models, resulting in reduced generalization, and a significant train-test performance gap. Mitigation measures include a combination of…

The field of pan-sharpening has recently seen a trend towards increasingly large and complex models, often trained on single, specific satellite datasets. This one-dataset, one-model approach leads to high computational overhead and…

The embedding-based representation learning is commonly used in deep learning recommendation models to map the raw sparse features to dense vectors. The traditional embedding manner that assigns a uniform size to all features has two…

Space-time adaptive processing (STAP) is a well-known technique in detecting slow-moving targets in the presence of a clutter-spreading environment. When considering the STAP system deployed with conformal radar array (CFA), the training…

We propose \textit{Meta-Regularization}, a novel approach for the adaptive choice of the learning rate in first-order gradient descent methods. Our approach modifies the objective function by adding a regularization term on the learning…

We study the problem of inferring sparse time-varying Markov random fields (MRFs) with different discrete and temporal regularizations on the parameters. Due to the intractability of discrete regularization, most approaches for solving this…

Working in high-dimensional latent spaces, the internal encoding of data in Variational Autoencoders becomes naturally sparse. We discuss this known but controversial phenomenon sometimes refereed to as overpruning, to emphasize the…

Hierarchical categorical variables often exhibit many levels (high granularity) and many classes within each level (high dimensionality). This may cause overfitting and estimation issues when including such covariates in a predictive model.…

We consider a regularization problem whose objective function consists of a convex fidelity term and a regularization term determined by the $\ell_1$ norm composed with a linear transform. Empirical results show that the regularization with…

Sparse training reduces the memory and computational costs of deep neural networks. However, sparse optimization methods, e.g., those adding an $\ell_1$ penalty, often control sparsity only indirectly through a regularization parameter…
