The efficiency of kernel methods on structured datasets

The efficiency of kernel methods on structured datasets
Inspired by the proposal of tangent kernels of neural networks (NNs), a recent research line aims to design kernels with a better generalization performance on standard datasets. Indeed, a few recent works showed that certain kernel machines perform as well as NNs on certain datasets, despite their separations in specific cases implied by...

CSML/Princeton Data Science Grant Presentation

CSML/Princeton Data Science Grant Presentation
This event is meant to highlight independent projects that Princeton Data Science (PDS) Data Science Grant recipients have been working on throughout this past semester. The grant recipients will each be giving a short presentation detailing their projects, which range from creating a dynamic digital 3D model of Streicker Bridge on Princeton’s...

Barriers to Deploying Deep Learning Models During the COVID-19 Pandemic

Barriers to Deploying Deep Learning Models During the COVID-19 Pandemic
A promising application for deep learning models is in assisting clinicians with interpreting X-ray and CT scans, especially when treating respiratory diseases. At the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, radiologists had to quickly learn how to identify a new disease on chest X-rays and CT scans, and use this information to decide how to allocate...

CITP Reading Group: Recommender Systems (RS)

CITP Reading Group: Recommender Systems (RS)

The goal of the recommender systems (RS) reading group is to gain deeper understanding both of seminal work as well as emerging ideas in the field. Papers will include research on RS algorithm development and evaluation; user-centered design and user studies for RS; fairness, accountability, and explainability in recommendations; and societal...

Evolving Graphical Planner: Contextual Global Planning for Vision-and-Language Navigation

Evolving Graphical Planner: Contextual Global Planning for Vision-and-Language Navigation
VisualAI lab focuses on bringing together the fields of computer vision, machine learning, human-machine interaction as well as fairness, accountability and transparency. In this talk, we will introduce the general goal of the lab, and how to build an agent that can understand and follow human’s language to perform tasks.

Machine Learning and Dynamical Systems meet in Reproducing Kernel Hilbert Spaces

Machine Learning and Dynamical Systems meet in Reproducing Kernel Hilbert Spaces
Since its inception in the 19th century through the efforts of Poincaré and Lyapunov, the theory of dynamical systems addresses the qualitative behaviour of dynamical systems as understood from models. From this perspective, the modeling of dynamical processes in applications requires a detailed understanding of the processes to be analyzed. This...

Preconditioning Helps: Faster Convergence in Statistical and Reinforcement Learning

Preconditioning Helps: Faster Convergence in Statistical and Reinforcement Learning
While exciting progress has been made in understanding the global convergence of vanilla gradient methods for solving challenging nonconvex problems in statistical estimation and machine learning, their computational efficacy is still far from satisfactory for ill-posed or ill-conditioned problems. In this talk, we discuss how the trick of...
