Noise-contrastive estimation: A new estimation principle ...

ated noise y. The estimation principle thus relies on noise with which the data is contrasted, so that we will refer to the new method as “noise-contrastive estima-tion”. In Section 2, we formally define noise-contrastive es-timation, establish fundamental statistical properties, and make the connection to supervised learning ex-plicit.

Self-Attention Generative Adversarial Networks

Self-Attention Generative Adversarial Networks Figure 1. The proposed SAGAN generates images by leveraging complementary features in distant portions of the image rather than local regions of fixed shape to generate consistent objects/scenarios. In each row, the first image shows five representative query locations with color coded dots.

Deep Gaussian Processes

representational power of a Gaussian process in the same role is significantly greater than that of an RBM. For the GP the corresponding likelihood is over a continuous vari-able, but it is a nonlinear function of the inputs, p(yjx) = N yjf(x);˙2; where N j ;˙2 is a Gaussian density with mean and variance ˙2. In this case the likelihood is ...

117 million Americans are included in law en-forcement face recognition networks. A year-long research investigation across 100 police de-partments revealed that African-American indi-viduals are more likely to be stopped by law enforcement and be subjected to face recogni-tion searches than individuals of other ethnici-ties (Garvie et al.,2016).

Algorithms for Reinforcement Learning - University of Alberta

Reinforcement learning is a learning paradigm concerned with learning to control a system so as to maximize a numerical performance measure that expresses a long-term objective. What distinguishes reinforcement learning from supervised learning is that only partial feedback is given to the learner about the learner’s predictions. Further,

Social learning theory states that learning is a cognitive process that takes place in a social context and can occur purely through observation or direct instruction, even in the absence of motor reproduction or direct reinforcement. In addition to the observation of behavior, learning also occurs through the observation of

Reinforcement Learning: Theory and Algorithms

In reinforcement learning, the interactions between the agent and the environment are often described by an infinite-horizon, discounted Markov Decision Process (MDP) M= (S;A;P;r;; ), specified by: •A state space S, which may be finite or infinite. For mathematical convenience, we will assume that Sis finite or countably infinite.
