Abstract:
A variety of methods have been applied to the architectural configuration and learning or training of artificial deep neural networks (DNNs). These methods play a crucial role in the success or failure of the DNNs for most problems. Evolutionary Algorithms are gaining momentum as a computationally feasible method for the automated optimisation of DNNs. Neuroevolution is a term that describes these processes.

Abstract:
Continuous-valued deep convolutional networks (DNNs) can be converted into accurate rate-coding based spike neural networks (SNNs). However, the substantial computational and energy costs, which is caused by multiple spikes, limit their use in mobile and embedded applications. And recent works have shown that the newly emerged temporal-coding based SNNs converted from DNNs can reduce the computational load effectively. In this paper, we propose a novel method to convert DNNs to temporal-coding SNNs, called TDSNN. Combined with the characteristic of the leaky integrate-andfire (LIF) neural model, we put forward a new coding principle Reverse Coding and design a novel Ticking Neuron mechanism. According to our evaluation, our proposed method achieves 42% total operations reduction on average in large networks comparing with DNNs with no more than 0.5% accuracy loss. The evaluation shows that TDSNN may prove to be one of the key enablers to make the adoption of SNNs widespread.

Abstract:
Kernel based Support Vector Machines, SVM, one of the most popular machine learning models, usually achieve top performances in two-class classification and regression problems. However, their training cost is at least quadratic on sample size, making them thus unsuitable for large sample problems. However, Deep Neural Networks (DNNs), with a cost linear on sample size, are able to solve big data problems relatively easily. In this work we propose to combine the advanced representations that DNNs can achieve in their last hidden layers with the hinge and ϵ insensitive losses that are used in two-class SVM classification and regression. We can thus have much better scalability while achieving performances comparable to those of SVMs. Moreover, we will also show that the resulting Deep SVM models are competitive with standard DNNs in two-class classification problems but have an edge in regression ones.

Abstract:
We propose multistate activation functions (MSAFs) for deep neural networks (DNNs). These MSAFs are new kinds of activation functions which are capable of representing more than two states, including theN-order MSAFs and the symmetrical MSAF. DNNs with these MSAFs can be trained via conventional Stochastic Gradient Descent (SGD) as well as mean-normalised SGD. We also discuss how these MSAFs perform when used to resolve classification problems. Experimental results on the TIMIT corpus reveal that, on speech recognition tasks, DNNs with MSAFs perform better than the conventional DNNs, getting a relative improvement of 5.60% on phoneme error rates. Further experiments also reveal that mean-normalised SGD facilitates the training processes of DNNs with MSAFs, especially when being with large training sets. The models can also be directly trained without pretraining when the training set is sufficiently large, which results in a considerable relative improvement of 5.82% on word error rates.

Abstract:
The predictive capabilities of deep neural networks (DNNs) continue to evolve to increasingly impressive levels. However, it is still unclear how training procedures for DNNs succeed in finding parameters that produce good results for such high-dimensional and nonconvex loss functions. In particular, we wish to understand why simple optimization schemes, such as stochastic gradient descent, do not end up trapped in local minima with high loss values that would not yield useful predictions. We explain the optimizability of DNNs by characterizing the local minima and transition states of the loss-function landscape (LFL) along with their connectivity. We show that the LFL of a DNN in the shallow network or data-abundant limit is funneled, and thus easy to optimize. Crucially, in the opposite low-data/deep limit, although the number of minima increases, the landscape is characterized by many minima with similar loss values separated by low barriers. This organization is different from the hierarchical landscapes of structural glass formers and explains why minimization procedures commonly employed by the machine-learning community can navigate the LFL successfully and reach low-lying solutions.

Abstract:
With the unprecedented performance achieved by deep learning, it is commonly believed that deep neural networks (DNNs) attempt to extract informative features for learning tasks. To formalize this intuition, we apply the local information geometric analysis and establish an information-theoretic framework for feature selection, which demonstrates the information-theoretic optimality of DNN features. Moreover, we conduct a quantitative analysis to characterize the impact of network structure on the feature extraction process of DNNs. Our investigation naturally leads to a performance metric for evaluating the effectiveness of extracted features, called the H-score, which illustrates the connection between the practical training process of DNNs and the information-theoretic framework. Finally, we validate our theoretical results by experimental designs on synthesized data and the ImageNet dataset.

Abstract:
Deep Neural Networks (DNNs) are often examined at the level of their response to input, such as analyzing the mutual information between nodes and data sets. Yet DNNs can also be examined at the level of causation, exploring “what does what” within the layers of the network itself. Historically, analyzing the causal structure of DNNs has received less attention than understanding their responses to input. Yet definitionally, generalizability must be a function of a DNN’s causal structure as it reflects how the DNN responds to unseen or even not-yet-defined future inputs. Here, we introduce a suite of metrics based on information theory to quantify and track changes in the causal structure of DNNs during training. Specifically, we introduce the effective information (EI) of a feedforward DNN, which is the mutual information between layer input and output following a maximum-entropy perturbation. The EI can be used to assess the degree of causal influence nodes and edges have over their downstream targets in each layer. We show that the EI can be further decomposed in order to examine the sensitivity of a layer (measured by how well edges transmit perturbations) and the degeneracy of a layer (measured by how edge overlap interferes with transmission), along with estimates of the amount of integrated information of a layer. Together, these properties define where each layer lies in the “causal plane”, which can be used to visualize how layer connectivity becomes more sensitive or degenerate over time, and how integration changes during training, revealing how the layer-by-layer causal structure differentiates. These results may help in understanding the generalization capabilities of DNNs and provide foundational tools for making DNNs both more generalizable and more explainable.

Abstract:
Deep neural networks (DNNs) have achieved superior performance in various prediction tasks, but can be very vulnerable to adversarial examples or perturbations. Therefore, it is crucial to measure the sensitivity of DNNs to various forms of perturbations in real applications. We introduce a novel perturbation manifold and its associated influence measure to quantify the effects of various perturbations on DNN classifiers. Such perturbations include various external and internal perturbations to input samples and network parameters. The proposed measure is motivated by information geometry and provides desirable invariance properties. We demonstrate that our influence measure is useful for four model building tasks: detecting potential ‘outliers’, analyzing the sensitivity of model architectures, comparing network sensitivity between training and test sets, and locating vulnerable areas. Experiments show reasonably good performance of the proposed measure for the popular DNN models ResNet50 and DenseNet121 on CIFAR10 and MNIST datasets.

Abstract:
Deep neural networks (DNNs) have achieved great success in the last decades. DNN is optimized using the stochastic gradient descent (SGD) with learning rate annealing that overtakes the adaptive methods in many tasks. However, there is no common choice regarding the scheduled-annealing for SGD. This paper aims to present empirical analysis of learning rate annealing based on the experimental results using the major data-sets on the image classification that is one of the key applications of the DNNs. Our experiment involves recent deep neural network models in combination with a variety of learning rate annealing methods. We also propose an annealing combining the sigmoid function with warmup that is shown to overtake both the adaptive methods and the other existing schedules in accuracy in most cases with DNNs.

Abstract:
In this paper, we propose a general framework for combining deep neural networks (DNNs) with dynamic programming to solve combinatorial optimization problems. For problems that can be broken into smaller subproblems and solved by dynamic programming, we train a set of neural networks to replace value or policy functions at each decision step. Two variants of the neural network approximated dynamic programming (NDP) methods are proposed; in the value-based NDP method, the networks learn to estimate the value of each choice at the corresponding step, while in the policy-based NDP method the DNNs only estimate the best decision at each step. The training procedure of the NDP starts from the smallest problem size and a new DNN for the next size is trained to cooperate with previous DNNs. After all the DNNs are trained, the networks are fine-tuned together to further improve overall performance. We test NDP on the linear sum assignment problem, the traveling salesman problem and the talent scheduling problem. Experimental results show that NDP can achieve considerable computation time reduction on hard problems with reasonable performance loss. In general, NDP can be applied to reducible combinatorial optimization problems for the purpose of computation time reduction.

Abstract:
Machine learning (ML) is an area of computer science that gives computers the ability to learn data patterns without prior programming for those patterns. Using neural networks in this area is based on simulating the biological functions of neurons in brains to learn patterns in data, giving computers a predictive ability to comprehend how data can be clustered. This research investigates the possibilities of using neural networks for classifying email, i.e. working as an email case manager. A Deep Neural Network (DNN) are multiple layers of neurons connected to each other by trainable weights. The main objective of this thesis was to evaluate how the three input arguments - data size, training time and neural network structure – affects the accuracy of Deep Neural Networks pattern recognition; also an evaluation of how the DNN performs compared to the statistical ML method, Naïve Bayes, in the form of prediction accuracy and complexity; and finally the viability of the resulting DNN as a case manager. Results show an improvement of accuracy on our networks with the increase of training time and data size respectively. By testing increasingly complex network structures (larger networks of neurons with more layers) it is observed that overfitting becomes a problem with increased training time, i.e. how accuracy decrease after a certain threshold of training time. Naïve Bayes classifiers performs worse than DNN in terms of accuracy, but better in reduced complexity; making NB viable on mobile platforms. We conclude that our developed prototype may work well in tangent with existing case management systems, tested by future research.

Abstract:
Les réseaux de neurones profonds (DNN) ont obtenu un succès remarquable sur de nombreuses applications du monde réel (par exemple, la reconnaissance de formes et la segmentation sémantique), mais sont toujours confrontés au problème de la gestion de l'incertitude. La théorie de Dempster-Shafer (DST) fournit un cadre bien fondé et élégant pour représenter et raisonner avec des informations incertaines. Dans cette thèse, nous avons proposé un nouveau framework utilisant DST et DNNs pour résoudre les problèmes d'incertitude. Dans le cadre proposé, nous hybridons d'abord DST et DNN en branchant une couche de réseau neuronal basée sur DST suivie d'une couche utilitaire à la sortie d'un réseau neuronal convolutif pour la classification à valeur définie. Nous étendons également l'idée à la segmentation sémantique en combinant des réseaux entièrement convolutifs et DST. L'approche proposée améliore les performances des modèles DNN en attribuant des modèles ambigus avec une incertitude élevée, ainsi que des valeurs aberrantes, à des ensembles multi-classes. La stratégie d'apprentissage utilisant des étiquettes souples améliore encore les performances des DNN en convertissant des données d'étiquettes imprécises et non fiables en fonctions de croyance. Nous avons également proposé une stratégie de fusion modulaire utilisant ce cadre proposé, dans lequel un module de fusion agrège les sorties de la fonction de croyance des DNN évidents selon la règle de Dempster. Nous utilisons cette stratégie pour combiner des DNN formés à partir d'ensembles de données hétérogènes avec différents ensembles de classes tout en conservant des performances au moins aussi bonnes que celles des réseaux individuels sur leurs ensembles de données respectifs. De plus, nous appliquons la stratégie pour combiner plusieurs réseaux superficiels et obtenir une performance similaire d'un DNN avancé pour une tâche compliquée
Deep neural networks (DNNs) have achieved remarkable success on many realworld applications (e.g., pattern recognition and semantic segmentation) but still face the problem of managing uncertainty. Dempster-Shafer theory (DST) provides a wellfounded and elegant framework to represent and reason with uncertain information. In this thesis, we have proposed a new framework using DST and DNNs to solve the problems of uncertainty. In the proposed framework, we first hybridize DST and DNNs by plugging a DSTbased neural-network layer followed by a utility layer at the output of a convolutional neural network for set-valued classification. We also extend the idea to semantic segmentation by combining fully convolutional networks and DST. The proposed approach enhances the performance of DNN models by assigning ambiguous patterns with high uncertainty, as well as outliers, to multi-class sets. The learning strategy using soft labels further improves the performance of the DNNs by converting imprecise and unreliable label data into belief functions. We have also proposed a modular fusion strategy using this proposed framework, in which a fusion module aggregates the belief-function outputs of evidential DNNs by Dempster’s rule. We use this strategy to combine DNNs trained from heterogeneous datasets with different sets of classes while keeping at least as good performance as those of the individual networks on their respective datasets. Further, we apply the strategy to combine several shallow networks and achieve a similar performance of an advanced DNN for a complicated task

Abstract:
Le Reti Neurali, e in particolare le Reti Neurali Convoluzionali, hanno recentemente dimostrato risultati straordinari in vari campi. Purtroppo, comunque, non vi è ancora una chiara comprensione del perchè queste architetture funzionino così bene e soprattutto è difficile spiegare il comportamento nel caso di fallimenti. Questa mancanza di chiarezza è quello che separa questi modelli dall’essere applicati in scenari concreti e critici della vita reale, come la sanità o le auto a guida autonoma. Per questa ragione, durante gli ultimi anni sono stati portati avanti diversi studi in modo tale da creare metodi che siano capaci di spiegare al meglio cosa sta succedendo dentro una rete neurale oppure dove la rete sta guardando per predire in un certo modo. Proprio queste tecniche sono il centro di questa tesi e il ponte tra i due casi di studio che sono presentati sotto. Lo scopo di questo lavoro è quindi duplice: per prima cosa, usare questi metodi per analizzare e quindi capire come migliorare applicazioni basate su reti neurali convoluzionali e in secondo luogo, per investigare la capacità di generalizzazione di queste architetture, sempre grazie a questi metodi.

Abstract:
Neuromorphic Engineering (NE) has led to the development of biologically-inspired computer architectures whose long-term goal is to approach the performance of the human brain in terms of energy efficiency and cognitive capabilities. Although there are a number of neuromorphic platforms available for large-scale Spiking Neural Network (SNN) simulations, the problem of programming these brain-like machines to be competent in cognitive applications still remains unsolved. On the other hand, Deep Learning has emerged in Artificial Neural Network (ANN) research to dominate state-of-the-art solutions for cognitive tasks. Thus the main research problem emerges of understanding how to operate and train biologically-plausible SNNs to close the gap in cognitive capabilities between SNNs and ANNs. SNNs can be trained by first training an equivalent ANN and then transferring the tuned weights to the SNN. This method is called ‘off-line’ training, since it does not take place on an SNN directly, but rather on an ANN instead. However, previous work on such off-line training methods has struggled in terms of poor modelling accuracy of the spiking neurons and high computational complexity. In this thesis we propose a simple and novel activation function, Noisy Softplus (NSP), to closely model the response firing activity of biologically-plausible spiking neurons, and introduce a generalised off-line training method using the Parametric Activation Function (PAF) to map the abstract numerical values of the ANN to concrete physical units, such as current and firing rate in the SNN. Based on this generalised training method and its fine tuning, we achieve the state-of-the-art accuracy on the MNIST classification task using spiking neurons, 99.07%, on a deep spiking convolutional neural network (ConvNet). We then take a step forward to ‘on-line’ training methods, where Deep Learning modules are trained purely on SNNs in an event-driven manner. Existing work has failed to provide SNNs with recognition accuracy equivalent to ANNs due to the lack of mathematical analysis. Thus we propose a formalised Spike-based Rate Multiplication (SRM) method which transforms the product of firing rates to the number of coincident spikes of a pair of rate-coded spike trains. Moreover, these coincident spikes can be captured by the Spike-Time-Dependent Plasticity (STDP) rule to update the weights between the neurons in an on-line, event-based, and biologically-plausible manner. Furthermore, we put forward solutions to reduce correlations between spike trains; thereby addressing the result of performance drop in on-line SNN training. The promising results of spiking Autoencoders (AEs) and Restricted Boltzmann Machines (SRBMs) exhibit equivalent, sometimes even superior, classification and reconstruction capabilities compared to their non-spiking counterparts. To provide meaningful comparisons between these proposed SNN models and other existing methods within this rapidly advancing field of NE, we propose a large dataset of spike-based visual stimuli and a corresponding evaluation methodology to estimate the overall performance of SNN models and their hardware implementations.

Abstract:
Speech intelligibility represents how comprehensible a speech is. It is more important than speech quality in some applications. Single channel speech intelligibility enhancement is much more difficult than multi-channel intelligibility enhancement. It has recently been reported that training-based single channel speech intelligibility enhancement algorithms perform better than Signal to Noise Ratio (SNR) based algorithm. In this thesis, a training-based Deep Neural Network (DNN) is used to improve single channel speech intelligibility. To increase the performance of the DNN, the Multi-Resolution Cochlea Gram (MRCG) feature set is used as the input of the DNN. MATLAB objective test results show that the MRCG-DNN approach is more robust than a Gaussian Mixture Model (GMM) approach. The MRCG-DNN also works better than other DNN training algorithms. Various conditions such as different speakers, different noise conditions and reverberation were tested in the thesis.

Abstract:
In recent years, there has been a significant push to implement Deep Neural Networks (DNNs) on edge devices, which requires power and hardware efficient circuits to carry out the intensive matrix-vector multiplication (MVM) operations. This work presents hardware efficient MVM implementation techniques using bit-serial arithmetic and a novel MSB first computation circuit. The proposed designs take advantage of the pre-trained network weight parameters, which are already known in the design stage. Thus, the partial computation results can be pre-computed and stored into look-up tables. Then the MVM results can be computed in a bit-serial manner without using multipliers. The proposed novel circuit implementation for convolution filters and rectified linear activation function used in deep neural networks conducts computation in an MSB-first bit-serial manner. It can predict earlier if the outcomes of filter computations will be negative and subsequently terminate the remaining computations to save power. The benefits of using the proposed MVM implementations techniques are demonstrated by comparing the proposed design with conventional implementation. The proposed circuit is implemented on an FPGA. It shows significant power and performance improvements compared to the conventional designs implemented on the same FPGA.

Abstract:
Deep learning is the most effective and used approach to artificial intelligence, and yet it is far from being properly understood. The understanding of it is the way to go to further improve its effectiveness and in the best case to gain some understanding of the "natural" intelligence. We attempt a step in this direction with the aim of physics. We describe a convolutional neural network for image classification (trained on CIFAR-10) within the descriptive framework of Thermodynamics. In particular we define and study the temperature of each component of the network. Our results provides a new point of view on deep learning models, which may be a starting point towards a better understanding of artificial intelligence.

Abstract:
Deep Convolutional Neural Networks and "deep learning" in general stand at the cutting edge on a range of applications, from image based recognition and classification to natural language processing, speech and speaker recognition and reinforcement learning. Very deep models however are often large, complex and computationally expensive to train and evaluate. Deep learning models are thus seldom deployed natively in environments where computational resources are scarce or expensive. To address this problem we turn our attention towards a range of techniques that we collectively refer to as "model compression" where a lighter student model is trained to approximate the output produced by the model we wish to compress. To this end, the output from the original model is used to craft the training labels of the smaller student model. This work contains some experiments on CIFAR-10 and demonstrates how to use the aforementioned techniques to compress a people counting model whose precision, recall and F1-score are improved by as much as 14% against our baseline.

Abstract:
Dans cette thèse, notre objectif est de développer des modèles d’apprentissage robustes et fiables mais précis, en particulier les Convolutional Neural Network (CNN), en présence des exemples anomalies, comme des exemples adversaires et d’échantillons hors distribution –Out-of-Distribution (OOD). Comme la première contribution, nous proposons d’estimer la confiance calibrée pour les exemples adversaires en encourageant la diversité dans un ensemble des CNNs. À cette fin, nous concevons un ensemble de spécialistes diversifiés avec un mécanisme de vote simple et efficace en termes de calcul pour prédire les exemples adversaires avec une faible confiance tout en maintenant la confiance prédicative des échantillons propres élevée. En présence de désaccord dans notre ensemble, nous prouvons qu’une borne supérieure de 0:5 + _0 peut être établie pour la confiance, conduisant à un seuil de détection global fixe de tau = 0; 5. Nous justifions analytiquement le rôle de la diversité dans notre ensemble sur l’atténuation du risque des exemples adversaires à la fois en boîte noire et en boîte blanche. Enfin, nous évaluons empiriquement la robustesse de notre ensemble aux attaques de la boîte noire et de la boîte blanche sur plusieurs données standards. La deuxième contribution vise à aborder la détection d’échantillons OOD à travers un modèle de bout en bout entraîné sur un ensemble OOD approprié. À cette fin, nous abordons la question centrale suivante : comment différencier des différents ensembles de données OOD disponibles par rapport à une tâche de distribution donnée pour sélectionner la plus appropriée, ce qui induit à son tour un modèle calibré avec un taux de détection des ensembles inaperçus de données OOD? Pour répondre à cette question, nous proposons de différencier les ensembles OOD par leur niveau de "protection" des sub-manifolds. Pour mesurer le niveau de protection, nous concevons ensuite trois nouvelles mesures efficaces en termes de calcul à l’aide d’un CNN vanille préformé. Dans une vaste série d’expériences sur les tâches de classification d’image et d’audio, nous démontrons empiriquement la capacité d’un CNN augmenté (A-CNN) et d’un CNN explicitement calibré pour détecter une portion significativement plus grande des exemples OOD. Fait intéressant, nous observons également qu’un tel A-CNN (nommé A-CNN) peut également détecter les adversaires exemples FGS en boîte noire avec des perturbations significatives. En tant que troisième contribution, nous étudions de plus près de la capacité de l’A-CNN sur la détection de types plus larges d’adversaires boîte noire (pas seulement ceux de type FGS). Pour augmenter la capacité d’A-CNN à détecter un plus grand nombre d’adversaires,nous augmentons l’ensemble d’entraînement OOD avec des échantillons interpolés inter-classes. Ensuite, nous démontrons que l’A-CNN, entraîné sur tous ces données, a un taux de détection cohérent sur tous les types des adversaires exemples invisibles. Alors que la entraînement d’un A-CNN sur des adversaires PGD ne conduit pas à un taux de détection stable sur tous les types d’adversaires, en particulier les types inaperçus. Nous évaluons également visuellement l’espace des fonctionnalités et les limites de décision dans l’espace d’entrée d’un CNN vanille et de son homologue augmenté en présence d’adversaires et de ceux qui sont propres. Par un A-CNN correctement formé, nous visons à faire un pas vers un modèle d’apprentissage debout en bout unifié et fiable avec de faibles taux de risque sur les échantillons propres et les échantillons inhabituels, par exemple, les échantillons adversaires et OOD. La dernière contribution est de présenter une application de A-CNN pour l’entraînement d’un détecteur d’objet robuste sur un ensemble de données partiellement étiquetées, en particulier un ensemble de données fusionné. La fusion de divers ensembles de données provenant de contextes similaires mais avec différents ensembles d’objets d’intérêt (OoI) est un moyen peu coûteux de créer un ensemble de données à grande échelle qui couvre un plus large spectre d’OoI. De plus, la fusion d’ensembles de données permet de réaliser un détecteur d’objet unifié, au lieu d’en avoir plusieurs séparés, ce qui entraîne une réduction des coûts de calcul et de temps. Cependant, la fusion d’ensembles de données, en particulier à partir d’un contexte similaire, entraîne de nombreuses instances d’étiquetées manquantes. Dans le but d’entraîner un détecteur d’objet robuste intégré sur un ensemble de données partiellement étiquetées mais à grande échelle, nous proposons un cadre d’entraînement auto-supervisé pour surmonter le problème des instances d’étiquettes manquantes dans les ensembles des données fusionnés. Notre cadre est évalué sur un ensemble de données fusionné avec un taux élevé d’étiquettes manquantes. Les résultats empiriques confirment la viabilité de nos pseudo-étiquettes générées pour améliorer les performances de YOLO, en tant que détecteur d’objet à la pointe de la technologie.
In this thesis, our goal is to develop robust and reliable yet accurate learning models, particularly Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs), in the presence of adversarial examples and Out-of-Distribution (OOD) samples. As the first contribution, we propose to predict adversarial instances with high uncertainty through encouraging diversity in an ensemble of CNNs. To this end, we devise an ensemble of diverse specialists along with a simple and computationally efficient voting mechanism to predict the adversarial examples with low confidence while keeping the predictive confidence of the clean samples high. In the presence of high entropy in our ensemble, we prove that the predictive confidence can be upper-bounded, leading to have a globally fixed threshold over the predictive confidence for identifying adversaries. We analytically justify the role of diversity in our ensemble on mitigating the risk of both black-box and white-box adversarial examples. Finally, we empirically assess the robustness of our ensemble to the black-box and the white-box attacks on several benchmark datasets.The second contribution aims to address the detection of OOD samples through an end-to-end model trained on an appropriate OOD set. To this end, we address the following central question: how to differentiate many available OOD sets w.r.t. a given in distribution task to select the most appropriate one, which in turn induces a model with a high detection rate of unseen OOD sets? To answer this question, we hypothesize that the “protection” level of in-distribution sub-manifolds by each OOD set can be a good possible property to differentiate OOD sets. To measure the protection level, we then design three novel, simple, and cost-effective metrics using a pre-trained vanilla CNN. In an extensive series of experiments on image and audio classification tasks, we empirically demonstrate the abilityof an Augmented-CNN (A-CNN) and an explicitly-calibrated CNN for detecting a significantly larger portion of unseen OOD samples, if they are trained on the most protective OOD set. Interestingly, we also observe that the A-CNN trained on the most protective OOD set (calledA-CNN) can also detect the black-box Fast Gradient Sign (FGS) adversarial examples. As the third contribution, we investigate more closely the capacity of the A-CNN on the detection of wider types of black-box adversaries. To increase the capability of A-CNN to detect a larger number of adversaries, we augment its OOD training set with some inter-class interpolated samples. Then, we demonstrate that the A-CNN trained on the most protective OOD set along with the interpolated samples has a consistent detection rate on all types of unseen adversarial examples. Where as training an A-CNN on Projected Gradient Descent (PGD) adversaries does not lead to a stable detection rate on all types of adversaries, particularly the unseen types. We also visually assess the feature space and the decision boundaries in the input space of a vanilla CNN and its augmented counterpart in the presence of adversaries and the clean ones. By a properly trained A-CNN, we aim to take a step toward a unified and reliable end-to-end learning model with small risk rates on both clean samples and the unusual ones, e.g. adversarial and OOD samples.The last contribution is to show a use-case of A-CNN for training a robust object detector on a partially-labeled dataset, particularly a merged dataset. Merging various datasets from similar contexts but with different sets of Object of Interest (OoI) is an inexpensive way to craft a large-scale dataset which covers a larger spectrum of OoIs. Moreover, merging datasets allows achieving a unified object detector, instead of having several separate ones, resultingin the reduction of computational and time costs. However, merging datasets, especially from a similar context, causes many missing-label instances. With the goal of training an integrated robust object detector on a partially-labeled but large-scale dataset, we propose a self-supervised training framework to overcome the issue of missing-label instances in the merged datasets. Our framework is evaluated on a merged dataset with a high missing-label rate. The empirical results confirm the viability of our generated pseudo-labels to enhance the performance of YOLO, as the current (to date) state-of-the-art object detector.

Abstract:
AbstractDeep Neural Networks (DNNs) are rapidly gaining popularity in a variety of important domains. Formally, DNNs are complicated vector-valued functions which come in a variety of sizes and applications. Unfortunately, modern DNNs have been shown to be vulnerable to a variety of attacks and buggy behavior. This has motivated recent work in formally analyzing the properties of such DNNs. This paper introduces SyReNN, a tool for understanding and analyzing a DNN by computing its symbolic representation. The key insight is to decompose the DNN into linear functions. Our tool is designed for analyses using low-dimensional subsets of the input space, a unique design point in the space of DNN analysis tools. We describe the tool and the underlying theory, then evaluate its use and performance on three case studies: computing Integrated Gradients, visualizing a DNN’s decision boundaries, and patching a DNN.

Abstract:
AbstractDeep Neural Networks (DNNs) are being deployed in a wide range of settings today, from safety-critical applications like autonomous driving to commercial applications involving image classifications. However, recent research has shown that DNNs can be brittle to even slight variations of the input data. Therefore, rigorous testing of DNNs has gained widespread attention.While DNN robustness under norm-bound perturbation got significant attention over the past few years, our knowledge is still limited when natural variants of the input images come. These natural variants, e.g., a rotated or a rainy version of the original input, are especially concerning as they can occur naturally in the field without any active adversary and may lead to undesirable consequences. Thus, it is important to identify the inputs whose small variations may lead to erroneous DNN behaviors. The very few studies that looked at DNN’s robustness under natural variants, however, focus on estimating the overall robustness of DNNs across all the test data rather than localizing such error-producing points. This work aims to bridge this gap.To this end, we study the local per-input robustness properties of the DNNs and leverage those properties to build a white-box (DeepRobust-W) and a black-box (DeepRobust-B) tool to automatically identify the non-robust points. Our evaluation of these methods on three DNN models spanning three widely used image classification datasets shows that they are effective in flagging points of poor robustness. In particular, DeepRobust-W and DeepRobust-B are able to achieve an F1 score of up to 91.4% and 99.1%, respectively. We further show that DeepRobust-W can be applied to a regression problem in a domain beyond image classification. Our evaluation on three self-driving car models demonstrates that DeepRobust-W is effective in identifying points of poor robustness with F1 score up to 78.9%.

Abstract:
AbstractSemantic segmentation is a crucial component for perception in automated driving. Deep neural networks (DNNs) are commonly used for this task, and they are usually trained on a closed set of object classes appearing in a closed operational domain. However, this is in contrast to the open world assumption in automated driving that DNNs are deployed to. Therefore, DNNs necessarily face data that they have never encountered previously, also known as anomalies, which are extremely safety-critical to properly cope with. In this chapter, we first give an overview about anomalies from an information-theoretic perspective. Next, we review research in detecting unknown objects in semantic segmentation. We present a method outperforming recent approaches by training for high entropy responses on anomalous objects, which is in line with our theoretical findings. Finally, we propose a method to assess the occurrence frequency of anomalies in order to select anomaly types to include into a model’s set of semantic categories. We demonstrate that those anomalies can then be learned in an unsupervised fashion which is particularly suitable in online applications.

AbstractVerification and validation (V&V) is a crucial step for the certification and deployment of deep neural networks (DNNs). Neuron coverage, inspired by code coverage in software testing, has been proposed as one such V&V method. We provide a summary of different neuron coverage variants and their inspiration from traditional software engineering V&V methods. Our first experiment shows that novelty and granularity are important considerations when assessing a coverage metric. Building on these observations, we provide an illustrative example for studying the advantages of pairwise coverage over simple neuron coverage. Finally, we show that there is an upper bound of realizable neuron coverage when test data are sampled from inside the operational design domain (in-ODD) instead of the entire input space.

Abstract:
AbstractAlthough deep neural networks (DNNs) are high-performance methods for various complex tasks, e.g., environment perception in automated vehicles (AVs), they are vulnerable to adversarial perturbations. Recent works have proven the existence of universal adversarial perturbations (UAPs), which, when added to most images, destroy the output of the respective perception function. Existing attack methods often show a low success rate when attacking target models which are different from the one that the attack was optimized on. To address such weak transferability, we propose a novel learning criterion by combining a low-level feature loss, addressing the similarity of feature representations in the first layer of various model architectures, with a cross-entropy loss. Experimental results on ImageNet and Cityscapes datasets show that our method effectively generates universal adversarial perturbations achieving state-of-the-art fooling rates across different models, tasks, and datasets. Due to their effectiveness, we propose the use of such novel generated UAPs in robustness evaluation of DNN-based environment perception functions for AVs.

Abstract:
Fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) composite materials are increasingly used in engineering applications. However, an investigation into the precision of conventional failure criteria, known as the World-Wide Failure Exercise (WWFEI), revealed that current theories remain unable to predict failure within an acceptable degree of accuracy. Deep Neural Networks (DNN) are emerging as an alternate and time-efficient technique for predicting the failure strength of FRP composite materials. The present study examined the applicability of DNNs as a tool for creating a data-driven failure model for composite materials. The experimental failure data presented in the WWFE-I were used to develop the datadriven model. A fully connected DNN with 23 input units and 1 output unit trained with a constant learning rate (α=0.0001). The network’s inputs described the laminates and the loading conditions applied to the test specimen, whereas the output was the length of the failure vector (L=(σx+σy+τxy)0.5). The DNN’s performance was evaluated using the mean squared error on a subset of the experimental data unseen during training. Network configurations with a varying number of hidden layers and units per layer were evaluated. The DNN with 3 hidden layers and 20 units per hidden layer performed the best. In fact, the network’s predictions show good agreement with the experimental results. The failure boundaries generated by the DNN were compared to three conventional theories: the Tsai-Wu, Cuntze, and Puck theory. The DNN’s failure envelopes were found to fit the experimental data more closely than the above-mentioned theories. In sum, the DNN’s ability to fit higher-order polynomials to data separates it from conventional failure criteria. This characteristic makes DNNs an effective method for predicting the failure strength of composite laminates.

Abstract:
Deep Neural Networks (DNNs) are typically trained by backpropagation in a batch setting, requiring the entire training data to be made available prior to the learning task. This is not scalable for many real-world scenarios where new data arrives sequentially in a stream. We aim to address an open challenge of ``Online Deep Learning" (ODL) for learning DNNs on the fly in an online setting. Unlike traditional online learning that often optimizes some convex objective function with respect to a shallow model (e.g., a linear/kernel-based hypothesis), ODL is more challenging as the optimization objective is non-convex, and regular DNN with standard backpropagation does not work well in practice for online settings. We present a new ODL framework that attempts to tackle the challenges by learning DNN models which dynamically adapt depth from a sequence of training data in an online learning setting. Specifically, we propose a novel Hedge Backpropagation (HBP) method for online updating the parameters of DNN effectively, and validate the efficacy on large data sets (both stationary and concept drifting scenarios).

Abstract:
Verifying correctness for deep neural networks (DNNs) is challenging. We study a generic reachability problem for feed-forward DNNs which, for a given set of inputs to the network and a Lipschitz-continuous function over its outputs computes the lower and upper bound on the function values. Because the network and the function are Lipschitz continuous, all values in the interval between the lower and upper bound are reachable. We show how to obtain the safety verification problem, the output range analysis problem and a robustness measure by instantiating the reachability problem. We present a novel algorithm based on adaptive nested optimisation to solve the reachability problem. The technique has been implemented and evaluated on a range of DNNs, demonstrating its efficiency, scalability and ability to handle a broader class of networks than state-of-the-art verification approaches.

Although Deep Neural Networks (DNNs) have achieved excellent performance in many tasks, improving the generalization capacity of DNNs still remains a challenge. In this work, we propose a novel regularizer named Ensemble-based Decorrelation Method (EDM), which is motivated by the idea of the ensemble learning to improve generalization capacity of DNNs. EDM can be applied to hidden layers in fully connected neural networks or convolutional neural networks. We treat each hidden layer as an ensemble of several base learners through dividing all the hidden units into several non-overlap groups, and each group will be viewed as a base learner. EDM encourages DNNs to learn more diverse representations by minimizing the covariance between all base learners during the training step. Experimental results on MNIST and CIFAR datasets demonstrate that EDM can effectively reduce the overfitting and improve the generalization capacity of DNNs

Abstract:
Abstract Deep neural networks (DNNs) have demonstrated good performance in learning highly non-linear relationships in large datasets, thus have been considered as a promising surrogate modeling tool for parametric partial differential equations (PDEs). On the other hand, quantifying the predictive uncertainty in DNNs is still a challenging problem. The Bayesian neural network (BNN), a sophisticated method assuming the weights of the DNNs follow certain uncertainty distributions, is considered as a state-of-the-art method for the UQ of DNNs. However, the method is too computationally expensive to be used in complicated DNN architectures. In this work, we utilized two more methods for the UQ of complicated DNNs, i.e. Monte Carlo dropout and deep ensemble. Both methods are computationally efficient and scalable compared to BNN. We applied these two methods to a densely connected convolutional network, which is developed and trained as a coarse-mesh turbulence closure relation for reactor safety analysis. In comparison, the corresponding BNN with the same architecture is also developed and trained. The computational cost and uncertainty evaluation performance of these three UQ methods are comprehensively investigated. It is found that the deep ensemble method is able to produce reasonable uncertainty estimates with good scalability and relatively low computational cost compared to BNN.

Abstract:
Deep Neural Network (DNN) is difficult to train and easy to overfit in training. We address these two issues by introducing EigenNet, an architecture that not only accelerates training but also adjusts number of hidden neurons to reduce over-fitting. They are achieved by whitening the information flows of DNNs and removing those eigenvectors that may capture noises. The former improves conditioning of the Fisher information matrix, whilst the latter increases generalization capability. These appealing properties of EigenNet can benefit many recent DNN structures, such as network in network and inception, by wrapping their hidden layers into the layers of EigenNet. The modeling capacities of the original networks are preserved. Both the training wall-clock time and number of updates are reduced by using EigenNet, compared to stochastic gradient descent on various datasets, including MNIST, CIFAR-10, and CIFAR-100.

Abstract:
Abstract This paper presents a first step to adapt deep neural networks (DNN) to turbomachinery designs. It is demonstrated that DNNs can predict complete flow solutions, using xyzcoordinates of the CFD mesh, rotational speed and boundary conditions as input to predict the velocities, pressure and density in the flow field. The presented DNN is trained by only twenty random 3D fan stage designs (training members). These designs were part of the initialization process of a previous optimization. The approximation quality of the DNN is validated on a random and a Pareto optimal design. The random design is a statistical outlier with low efficiency while the Pareto optimal design dominates the training members in terms of efficiency. So both test members require some extrapolation quality of the DNN. The DNN reproduces characteristics of the flow of both designs, showing its capability of generalization and potential for future applications. The paper begins with an explanation of the DNN concept, which is based on convolutional layers. Based on the working principal of these layers a conversion of a CFD mesh to a suitable DNN input is derived. This conversion ensures that the DNNs can work in a similar way as in image recognition, where DNNs show superior results in comparison to other models.

Abstract:
Deep Neural Networks (DNNs) are vulnerable to Neural Trojan (NT) attacks where the adversary injects malicious behaviors during DNN training. This type of ‘backdoor’ attack is activated when the input is stamped with the trigger pattern specified by the attacker, resulting in an incorrect prediction of the model. Due to the wide application of DNNs in various critical fields, it is indispensable to inspect whether the pre-trained DNN has been trojaned before employing a model. Our goal in this paper is to address the security concern on unknown DNN to NT attacks and ensure safe model deployment. We propose DeepInspect, the first black-box Trojan detection solution with minimal prior knowledge of the model. DeepInspect learns the probability distribution of potential triggers from the queried model using a conditional generative model, thus retrieves the footprint of backdoor insertion. In addition to NT detection, we show that DeepInspect’s trigger generator enables effective Trojan mitigation by model patching. We corroborate the effectiveness, efficiency, and scalability of DeepInspect against the state-of-the-art NT attacks across various benchmarks. Extensive experiments show that DeepInspect offers superior detection performance and lower runtime overhead than the prior work.

Abstract:
We present Any-Precision Deep Neural Networks (Any- Precision DNNs), which are trained with a new method that empowers learned DNNs to be flexible in any numerical precision during inference. The same model in runtime can be flexibly and directly set to different bit-width, by trun- cating the least significant bits, to support dynamic speed and accuracy trade-off. When all layers are set to low- bits, we show that the model achieved accuracy compara- ble to dedicated models trained at the same precision. This nice property facilitates flexible deployment of deep learn- ing models in real-world applications, where in practice trade-offs between model accuracy and runtime efficiency are often sought. Previous literature presents solutions to train models at each individual fixed efficiency/accuracy trade-off point. But how to produce a model flexible in runtime precision is largely unexplored. When the demand of efficiency/accuracy trade-off varies from time to time or even dynamically changes in runtime, it is infeasible to re-train models accordingly, and the storage budget may forbid keeping multiple models. Our proposed framework achieves this flexibility without performance degradation. More importantly, we demonstrate that this achievement is agnostic to model architectures. We experimentally validated our method with different deep network backbones (AlexNet-small, Resnet-20, Resnet-50) on different datasets (SVHN, Cifar-10, ImageNet) and observed consistent results.

Abstract:
As an emerging field, the Internet of Vehicles (IoV) has a myriad of security vulnerabilities that must be addressed to protect system integrity. To stay ahead of novel attacks, cybersecurity professionals are developing new software and systems using machine learning techniques. Neural network architectures improve such systems, including Intrusion Detection System (IDSs), by implementing anomaly detection, which differentiates benign data packets from malicious ones. For an IDS to best predict anomalies, the model is trained on data that is typically pre-processed through normalization and feature selection/reduction. These pre-processing techniques play an important role in training a neural network to optimize its performance. This research studies the impact of applying normalization techniques as a pre-processing step to learning, as used by the IDSs. The impacts of pre-processing techniques play an important role in training neural networks to optimize its performance. This report proposes a Deep Neural Network (DNN) model with two hidden layers for IDS architecture and compares two commonly used normalization pre-processing techniques. Our findings are evaluated using accuracy, Area Under Curve (AUC), Receiver Operator Characteristic (ROC), F-1 Score, and loss. The experimentations demonstrate that Z-Score outperforms no-normalization and the use of Min-Max normalization.

Abstract:
Deep learning (DL) has attracted the attention of computational toxicologists as it offers a potentially greater power for in silico predictive toxicology than existing shallow learning algorithms. However, contradicting reports have been documented. To further explore the advantages of DL over shallow learning, we conducted this case study using two cell-based androgen receptor (AR) activity datasets with 10K chemicals generated from the Tox21 program. A nested double-loop cross-validation approach was adopted along with a stratified sampling strategy for partitioning chemicals of multiple AR activity classes (i.e., agonist, antagonist, inactive, and inconclusive) at the same distribution rates amongst the training, validation and test subsets. Deep neural networks (DNN) and random forest (RF), representing deep and shallow learning algorithms, respectively, were chosen to carry out structure-activity relationship-based chemical toxicity prediction. Results suggest that DNN significantly outperformed RF (p < 0.001, ANOVA) by 22–27% for four metrics (precision, recall, F-measure, and AUPRC) and by 11% for another (AUROC). Further in-depth analyses of chemical scaffolding shed insights on structural alerts for AR agonists/antagonists and inactive/inconclusive compounds, which may aid in future drug discovery and improvement of toxicity prediction modeling.
