Orthogonal Gradient Descent for Continual Learning

no code implementations15 Oct 2019 Mehrdad Farajtabar, Navid Azizan, Alex Mott, Ang Li

In this paper, we propose to address this issue from a parameter space perspective and study an approach to restrict the direction of the gradient updates to avoid forgetting previously-learned data.

Quantum adiabatic machine learning with zooming

1 code implementation13 Aug 2019 Alexander Zlokapa, Alex Mott, Joshua Job, Jean-Roch Vlimant, Daniel Lidar, Maria Spiropulu

The significant improvement of quantum annealing algorithms for machine learning and the use of a discrete quantum algorithm on a continuous optimization problem both opens a new class of problems that can be solved by quantum annealers and suggests the approach in performance of near-term quantum machine learning towards classical benchmarks.

Towards Interpretable Reinforcement Learning Using Attention Augmented Agents

1 code implementation NeurIPS 2019 Alex Mott, Daniel Zoran, Mike Chrzanowski, Daan Wierstra, Danilo J. Rezende

Inspired by recent work in attention models for image captioning and question answering, we present a soft attention model for the reinforcement learning domain.
