Understanding and Improving Transformer From a Multi-Particle Dynamic System Point of View.

no code implementations ICLR Workshop DeepDiffEq 2019 Yiping Lu*, Zhuohan Li*, Di He, Zhiqing Sun, Bin Dong, Tao Qin, LiWei Wang, Tie-Yan Liu

In particular, how words in a sentence are abstracted into contexts by passing through the layers of the Transformer can be interpreted as approximating multiple particles' movement in the space using the Lie-Trotter splitting scheme and the Euler's method.

Defective Convolutional Layers Learn Robust CNNs

no code implementations25 Sep 2019 Tiange Luo, Tianle Cai, Xiaomeng Zhang, Siyu Chen, Di He, LiWei Wang

We first show that predictions made by the defective CNN are less dependent on textural information, but more on shape information, and further find that adversarial examples generated by the defective CNN appear to have semantic shapes.

Towards Understanding Learning Representations: To What Extent Do Different Neural Networks Learn the Same Representation

1 code implementation NeurIPS 2018 Liwei Wang, Lunjia Hu, Jiayuan Gu, Yue Wu, Zhiqiang Hu, Kun He, John Hopcroft

The theory gives a complete characterization of the structure of neuron activation subspace matches, where the core concepts are maximum match and simple match which describe the overall and the finest similarity between sets of neurons in two networks respectively.
