Deep neural networks set the state-of-the-art across many tasks in computer vision, but their generalization ability to image distortions is surprisingly fragile. In contrast, the mammalian visual system is robust to a wide range of…

The organization of the connectivity between mammalian cortical areas has become a major subject of study, because of its important role in scaffolding the macroscopic aspects of animal behavior and intelligence. In this study we present a…

This paper presents a mathematical analysis of ODE-Net, a continuum model of deep neural networks (DNNs). In recent years, Machine Learning researchers have introduced ideas of replacing the deep structure of DNNs with ODEs as a continuum…

It has been suggested that neural systems across several scales of organization show optimal component placement, in which any spatial rearrangement of the components would lead to an increase of total wiring. Using extensive connectivity…

Global integration of information in the brain results from complex interactions of segregated brain networks. Identifying the most influential neuronal populations that efficiently bind these networks is a fundamental problem of systems…

In this article, we propose the approach to procedural optimization of a neural network, based on the combination of information theory and braid theory. The network studied in the article implemented with the intersections between the…

In this paper, we address the adversarial training of neural ODEs from a robust control perspective. This is an alternative to the classical training via empirical risk minimization, and it is widely used to enforce reliable outcomes for…

Neural ordinary differential equations (ODEs) provide expressive representations of invertible transport maps that can be used to approximate complex probability distributions, e.g., for generative modeling, density estimation, and Bayesian…

As our understanding of the mechanisms of brain function is enhanced, the value of insights gained from neuroscience to the development of AI algorithms deserves further consideration. Here, we draw parallels with an existing tree-based ANN…

The fragility of deep neural networks to adversarially-chosen inputs has motivated the need to revisit deep learning algorithms. Including adversarial examples during training is a popular defense mechanism against adversarial attacks. This…

We characterized the generalization capabilities of DNN-based encoding models when predicting neuronal responses from the visual cortex. We collected \textit{MacaqueITBench}, a large-scale dataset of neural population responses from the…

Purpose: (1) To develop a deep learning algorithm to identify major tissue structures of the optic nerve head (ONH) in 3D optical coherence tomography (OCT) scans; (2) to exploit such information to robustly differentiate among healthy,…

In recent years, deep learning has been connected with optimal control as a way to define a notion of a continuous underlying learning problem. In this view, neural networks can be interpreted as a discretization of a parametric Ordinary…

Out-of-distribution (OOD) detection and OOD generalization are widely studied in Deep Neural Networks (DNNs), yet their relationship remains poorly understood. We empirically show that the degree of Neural Collapse (NC) in a network layer…

Neural ordinary differential equations (Neural ODEs) propose the idea that a sequence of layers in a neural network is just a discretisation of an ODE, and thus can instead be directly modelled by a parameterised ODE. This idea has had…

Hard visual attention is a promising approach to reduce the computational burden of modern computer vision methodologies. Hard attention mechanisms are typically non-differentiable. They can be trained with reinforcement learning but the…

We examine how the saccade mechanism from biological vision can be used to make deep neural networks more efficient for classification and object detection problems. Our proposed approach is based on the ideas of attention-driven visual…

Training dynamic models, such as neural ODEs, on long trajectories is a hard problem that requires using various tricks, such as trajectory splitting, to make model training work in practice. These methods are often heuristics with poor…

Constellation shaping is a practical and effective technique to improve the performance and the rate adaptivity of optical communication systems. In principle, it could also be used to mitigate the impact of nonlinear effects, possibly…

Brain networks are expected to be modular. However, existing techniques for estimating a network's modules make it difficult to assess the influence of organizational principles such as wiring cost reduction on the detected modules. Here,…
