Abstract:
Robotic learning on real hardware requires an efficient algorithm which minimizes the number of trials needed to learn an optimal policy. Prolonged use of hardware causes wear and tear on the system and demands more attention from an operator. To this end, we present a novel black-box optimization algorithm, Reward Optimization with Compact Kernels and fast natural gradient regression (ROCK⋆). Our algorithm immediately updates knowledge after a single trial and is able to extrapolate in a controlled manner. These features make fast and safe learning on real hardware possible.

Abstract:
Meta reinforcement learning (RL) attempts to discover new RL algorithms automatically from environment interaction. In so-called black-box approaches, the policy and the learning algorithm are jointly represented by a single neural network. These methods are very flexible, but they tend to underperform compared to human-engineered RL algorithms in terms of generalisation to new, unseen environments. In this paper, we explore the role of symmetries in meta-generalisation. We show that a recent successful meta RL approach that meta-learns an objective for backpropagation-based learning exhibits

Abstract:
The adversarial samples threaten the effectiveness of machine learning (ML) models and algorithms in many applications. In particular, black-box attack methods are quite close to actual scenarios. Research on black-box attack methods and the generation of adversarial samples is helpful to discover the defects of machine learning models. It can strengthen the robustness of machine learning algorithms models. Such methods require queries frequently, which are less efficient.

Usually, real-world problems involve the optimization of multiple, possibly conflicting, objectives. These problems may be addressed by Multi-objective Reinforcement learning (MORL) techniques. MORL is a generalization of standard Reinforcement Learning (RL) where the single reward signal is extended to multiple signals, in particular, one for each objective. MORL is the process of learning policies that optimize multiple objectives simultaneously. In these problems, the use of directional/gradient information can be useful to guide the exploration to better and better behaviors. However, trad

Abstract:
The reduction of childhood mortality is an ongoing struggle and a commonly used factor in determining progress in the medical field. The under-5 mortality number is around 5 million around the world, with many of the deaths being preventable. In light of this issue, cardiotocograms (CTGs) have emerged as a leading tool to determine fetal health. By using ultrasound pulses and reading the responses, CTGs help healthcare professionals assess the overall health of the fetus to determine the risk of child mortality. However, interpreting the results of the CTGs is time consuming and inefficient, e

With the expansion of the internet, a major threat has emerged involving the spread of malicious domains intended by attackers to perform illegal activities aiming to target governments, violating privacy of organizations, and even manipulating everyday users. Therefore, detecting these harmful domains is necessary to combat the growing network attacks. Machine Learning (ML) models have shown significant outcomes towards the detection of malicious domains. However, the “black box” nature of the complex ML models obstructs their wide-ranging acceptance in some of the fields. The emergence of Ex

Abstract:
Abstract The correspondence of active learning and testing of finite-state machines (FSMs) has been known for a while; however, it was not utilized in the learning. We propose a new framework called the observation tree approach that allows one to use the testing theory to improve the performance of active learning. The improvement is demonstrated on three novel learning algorithms that implement the observation tree approach. They outperform the standard learning algorithms, such as the L* algorithm, in the setting where a minimally adequate teacher provides counterexamples. Moreover, they ca

Abstract:
We study an interesting variant of the stochastic multi-armed bandit problem, which we call the Fair-MAB problem, where, in addition to the objective of maximizing the sum of expected rewards, the algorithm also needs to ensure that at any time, each arm is pulled at least a pre-specified fraction of times. We investigate the interplay between learning and fairness in terms of a pre-specified vector denoting the fractions of guaranteed pulls. We define a fairness-aware regret, which we call r-Regret, that takes into account the above fairness constraints and extends the conventional notion of

Neural networks are very vulnerable to adversarial examples, which threaten their application in security systems, such as face recognition, and autopilot. In response to this problem, we propose a new defensive strategy. In our strategy, we propose a new deep denoising neural network, which is called UDDN, to remove the noise on adversarial samples. The standard denoiser suffers from the amplification effect, in which the small residual adversarial noise gradually increases and leads to misclassification. The proposed denoiser overcomes this problem by using a special loss function, which is

Modern data centers suffer from immense power consumption. As a result, data center operators have heavily invested in capacity scaling solutions, which dynamically deactivate servers if the demand is low and activate them again when the workload increases. We analyze a continuoustime model for capacity scaling, where the goal is to minimize the weighted sum of flow-time, switching cost, and power consumption in an online fashion. We propose a novel algorithm, called the Adaptive Balanced Capacity Scaling (ABCS) algorithm, that has access to black-box machine learning predictions. ABCS aims to

The most productive way of increasing the pupils′ attendance rate is to predict when it is going to go down, understand the reasons—why it happened—and act on the affecting factors so as to prevent it.

The reason can refer to the random initialization procedure of the SLFN hidden node parameters with OSELM algorithm.
