Neurosymbolic Deep Generative Models for Sequence Data with Relational Constraints
Recently, there has been significant progress designing deep generative models that generate realistic sequence data such as text or music. Nevertheless, it remains difficult to incorporate high-level structure to guide the generative process. We propose a novel approach for incorporating structure in the form of relat...

This paper was pretty borderline, but ultimately I am recommending rejection, for the following reason: The two most negative reviewers (in terms of original score) were concerned about both the quality of the evaluation and whether the evaluation metrics actually meant what the paper claimed they meant.

On the Importance of Looking at the Manifold
Data rarely lies on uniquely Euclidean spaces. Even data typically represented in regular domains, such as images, can have a higher level of relational information, either between data samples or even relations within samples, e.g., how the objects in an image are linked. With this perspective our data points can be e...

Importance and Coherence: Methods for Evaluating Modularity in Neural Networks
As deep neural networks become more advanced and widely-used, it is important to understand their inner workings. Toward this goal, modular interpretations are appealing because they offer flexible levels of abstraction aside from standard architectural building blocks (e.g., neurons, channels, layers). In this paper, ...

Aspect-based Sentiment Classification via Reinforcement Learning

However, approaches that account for survival outcomes are relatively limited. Survival data are frequently encountered across diverse medical applications, i.e., drug developme...

Summary: This paper provides an approach for causal inference in observational survival dataset in which the outcome is of time-to-event type with right-censored samples. To this end, the paper adapts the balanced representation learning approach proposed in (Shalit et al, 2017) to the context of survival analysis. Th...

Rotograd: Dynamic Gradient Homogenization for Multitask Learning
GradNorm (Chen et al., 2018) is a broadly used gradient-based approach for training multitask networks, where different tasks share, and thus compete during learning, for the network parameters. GradNorm eases the fitting of all individual tasks by dynamically equalizing the contribution of each task to the overall gra...

The paper is proposing a novel representation of the GradNorm. GradNorm is presented as a Stackelberg game and its theory is used to understand and improve the convergence of the GradNorm. Moreover, in addition to the magnitude normalization, a direction normalization objective is added to the leader and a rotation mat...

TRIP: Refining Image-to-Image Translation via Rival Preferences
We propose a new model to refine image-to-image translation via an adversarial ranking process. In particular, we simultaneously train two modules: a generator that translates an input image to the desired image with smooth subtle changes with respect to some specific attributes; and a ranker that ranks rival preferenc...

Are all outliers alike? On Understanding the Diversity of Outliers for Detecting OODs
Deep neural networks (DNNs) are known to produce incorrect predictions with very high confidence on out-of-distribution (OOD) inputs. This limitation is one of the key challenges in the adoption of deep learning models in high-assurance systems such as autonomous driving, air traffic management, and medical diagnosis. ...

Despite the immense success that deep neural networks (DNNs) have achieved, \emph{adversarial examples}, which are perturbed inputs that aim to mislead DNNs to make mistakes, have recently led to great concerns.

The use of deep learning has grown at an exponential rate, giving rise to numerous specialized hardware and software systems for deep learning. Because the design space of deep learning software stacks and hardware accelerators is diverse and vast, prior work considers software optimizations separately from hardware ar...

This paper considers the problem of hardware and software co-design for neural accelerators. Specifically, it looks at hardware and the software compiler that maps DNN to hardware. It employs Bayesian Optimization (BO) to perform joint search over hardware and software design parameters in an alternating manner. To han...
