Algorithmic insights on continual learning from fruit flies

1 code implementation15 Jul 2021 Yang shen, Sanjoy Dasgupta, Saket Navlakha

We discovered a two layer neural circuit in the fruit fly olfactory system that addresses this challenge by uniquely combining sparse coding and associative learning.

Can a Fruit Fly Learn Word Embeddings?

2 code implementations ICLR 2021 Yuchen Liang, Chaitanya K. Ryali, Benjamin Hoover, Leopold Grinberg, Saket Navlakha, Mohammed J. Zaki, Dmitry Krotov

In this work we study a mathematical formalization of this network motif and apply it to learning the correlational structure between words and their context in a corpus of unstructured text, a common natural language processing (NLP) task.
