Rethinking Bayesian Learning for Data Analysis: The Art of Prior and Inference in Sparsity-Aware Modeling

no code implementations28 May 2022 Lei Cheng, Feng Yin, Sergios Theodoridis, Sotirios Chatzis, Tsung-Hui Chang

However, a come back of Bayesian methods is taking place that sheds new light on the design of deep neural networks, which also establish firm links with Bayesian models and inspire new paths for unsupervised learning, such as Bayesian tensor decomposition.

Competing Mutual Information Constraints with Stochastic Competition-based Activations for Learning Diversified Representations

no code implementations10 Jan 2022 Konstantinos P. Panousis, Anastasios Antoniadis, Sotirios Chatzis

To this end, we combine information-theoretic arguments with stochastic competition-based activations, namely Stochastic Local Winner-Takes-All (LWTA) units.

Stochastic Local Winner-Takes-All Networks Enable Profound Adversarial Robustness

1 code implementation5 Dec 2021 Konstantinos P. Panousis, Sotirios Chatzis, Sergios Theodoridis

This work explores the potency of stochastic competition-based activations, namely Stochastic Local Winner-Takes-All (LWTA), against powerful (gradient-based) white-box and black-box adversarial attacks; we especially focus on Adversarial Training settings.

Dialog speech sentiment classification for imbalanced datasets

no code implementations15 Sep 2021 Sergis Nicolaou, Lambros Mavrides, Georgina Tryfou, Kyriakos Tolias, Konstantinos Panousis, Sotirios Chatzis, Sergios Theodoridis

Speech is the most common way humans express their feelings, and sentiment analysis is the use of tools such as natural language processing and computational algorithms to identify the polarity of these feelings.

Local Competition and Stochasticity for Adversarial Robustness in Deep Learning

no code implementations4 Jan 2021 Konstantinos P. Panousis, Sotirios Chatzis, Antonios Alexos, Sergios Theodoridis

The main operating principle of the introduced units lies on stochastic arguments, as the network performs posterior sampling over competing units to select the winner.

Quantum Statistics-Inspired Neural Attention

no code implementations17 Sep 2018 Aristotelis Charalampous, Sotirios Chatzis

Specifically, our work broadens the notion of NA, by attempting to account for the case that the NA model becomes inherently incapable of discerning between individual source elements; this is assumed to be the case due to higher-order temporal dynamics.

t-Exponential Memory Networks for Question-Answering Machines

no code implementations4 Sep 2018 Kyriakos Tolias, Sotirios Chatzis

Our work addresses learning subtler and more complex underlying temporal dynamics in language modeling tasks that deal with sparse sequential data.

Nonparametric Bayesian Deep Networks with Local Competition

1 code implementation19 May 2018 Konstantinos P. Panousis, Sotirios Chatzis, Sergios Theodoridis

To this end, we revisit deep networks that comprise competing linear units, as opposed to nonlinear units that do not entail any form of (local) competition.

Deep learning with t-exponential Bayesian kitchen sinks

no code implementations10 Feb 2018 Harris Partaourides, Sotirios Chatzis

We effect model training by means of approximate inference based on a t-divergence measure; this generalizes the Kullback-Leibler divergence in the context of the t-exponential family of distributions.
