The Math and internal workings of Variational Auto Encoders. It talks about Variational Inference and how VAEs take advantage of them to bypass having to calculate Marginal Probability distribution.
Vanishing gradients occur when error gradients become very small during backpropagation, hindering convergence. This can happen when activation functions like sigmoid and tanh are used, as their derivatives are between 0 and 0.25. It affects earlier layers more due to more multiplicative terms. Using ReLU activations helps as their derivative is 1 for positive values. Initializing weights properly also helps prevent vanishing gradients. Exploding gradients occur when error gradients become very large, disrupting learning. It can be addressed through lower learning rates, gradient clipping, and gradient scaling.
An autoencoder is an artificial neural network that is trained to copy its input to its output. It consists of an encoder that compresses the input into a lower-dimensional latent-space encoding, and a decoder that reconstructs the output from this encoding. Autoencoders are useful for dimensionality reduction, feature learning, and generative modeling. When constrained by limiting the latent space or adding noise, autoencoders are forced to learn efficient representations of the input data. For example, a linear autoencoder trained with mean squared error performs principal component analysis.
This document discusses reinforcement learning. It defines reinforcement learning as a learning method where an agent learns how to behave via interactions with an environment. The agent receives rewards or penalties based on its actions but is not told which actions are correct. Several reinforcement learning concepts and algorithms are covered, including model-based vs model-free approaches, passive vs active learning, temporal difference learning, adaptive dynamic programming, and exploration-exploitation tradeoffs. Generalization methods like function approximation and genetic algorithms are also briefly mentioned.

Deep learning technologies are at the core of the current revolution in artificial intelligence for multimedia data analysis. The convergence of large-scale annotated datasets and affordable GPU hardware has allowed the training of neural networks for data analysis tasks which were previously addressed with hand-crafted features. Architectures such as convolutional neural networks, recurrent neural networks or Q-nets for reinforcement learning have shaped a brand new scenario in signal processing. This course will cover the basic principles of deep learning from both an algorithmic and computational perspectives.
Knowledge-based agents can accept new tasks in the form of explicitly described goals and adapt to changes in their environment by updating relevant knowledge. They maintain a knowledge base of facts about the environment and use an inference engine to deduce new information and determine what actions to take. The knowledge base stores sentences expressed in a knowledge representation language and the inference engine applies logical rules to deduce new facts or answer queries. Propositional logic is often used to represent knowledge, where sentences consist of proposition symbols connected by logical connectives like AND, OR, and NOT.
HML: Historical View and Trends of Deep LearningYan Xu
?
The document provides a historical view and trends of deep learning. It discusses that deep learning models have evolved in several waves since the 1940s, with key developments including the backpropagation algorithm in 1986 and deep belief networks with pretraining in 2006. Current trends include growing datasets, increasing numbers of neurons and connections per neuron, and higher accuracy on tasks involving vision, NLP and games. Research trends focus on generative models, domain alignment, meta-learning, using graphs as inputs, and program induction.
In some applications, the output of the system is a sequence of actions. In such a case, a single action is not important
game playing where a single move by itself is not that important.in the case of the agent acts on its environment, it receives some evaluation of its action (reinforcement),
but is not told of which action is the correct one to achieve its goal
Semantic networks are a knowledge representation technique where concepts are represented as nodes in a graph, and relationships between concepts are represented as links between nodes. There are different types of semantic networks, including definitional networks that emphasize subclass relationships, assertional networks for making propositions, and executable networks that can change based on operations. Common semantic relations include IS-A for subclasses, INSTANCE for examples, and HAS-PART for components. While semantic networks provide a natural representation of relationships, they have disadvantages like lack of standard link names and difficulty representing some logical constructs.

Vector Quantization Vs Scalar Quantization ManasiKaur
?
Vector quantization has several advantages over scalar quantization for data compression:
1) Vector quantization groups input symbols into vectors and processes them together, while scalar quantization treats each symbol separately, reducing efficiency.
2) Vector quantization increases quantizer optimality and provides more flexibility for modification compared to scalar quantization.
3) Vector quantization can lower average distortion for the same number of reconstruction levels, or increase reconstruction levels for the same distortion, which scalar quantization cannot do.

We consider the problem of finding anomalies in high-dimensional data using popular PCA based anomaly scores. The naive algorithms for computing these scores explicitly compute the PCA of the covariance matrix which uses space quadratic in the dimensionality of the data. We give the first streaming algorithms
that use space that is linear or sublinear in the dimension. We prove general results showing that any sketch of a matrix that satisfies a certain operator norm guarantee can be used to approximate these scores. We instantiate these results with powerful matrix sketching techniques such as Frequent Directions and random projections to derive efficient and practical algorithms for these problems, which we validate over real-world data sets. Our main technical contribution is to prove matrix perturbation
inequalities for operators arising in the computation of these measures.

This document summarizes key concepts from Chapter 5 of the book "Pattern Recognition and Machine Learning" regarding neural networks.
1. Neural networks can overcome the curse of dimensionality by using nonlinear activation functions between layers. Common activation functions include sigmoid, tanh, and ReLU.
2. A feedforward neural network consists of an input layer, hidden layers with nonlinear activations, and an output layer. The network learns by adjusting weights in a process called backpropagation.
3. Bayesian neural networks treat the network weights as distributions and integrate them out to make predictions, avoiding overfitting. However, the posterior distribution cannot be expressed in closed form due to the nonlinear nature of neural networks.
SLIDING WINDOW SUM ALGORITHMS FOR DEEP NEURAL NETWORKSIJCI JOURNAL
?
Sliding window sums are widely used for string indexing, hashing and time series analysis. We have
developed a family of the generic vectorized sliding sum algorithms that provide speedup of O(P/w) for
window size w and number of processors P. For a sum with a commutative operator the speedup is
improved to O(P/log(w)). Even more important, our algorithms exhibit efficient memory access patterns. In
this paper we study the application of sliding sum algorithms to the training and inference of Deep Neural
Networks. We demonstrate how both pooling and convolution primitives could be expressed as sliding
sums and evaluated by the compute kernels with a shared structure. We show that the sliding sum
convolution kernels are more efficient than the commonly used GEMM kernels on CPUs and could even
outperform their GPU counterparts.

2. Generative Models
? They take in data as input and learn to generate new data points from the same
data distribution.
? They learn the hidden representations using unsupervised learning techniques
3. Variational Autoencoder
? As the name suggests, it is an auto-encoder, which learns attributes from the data
points and represents them in terms of latent variables.
4. Problems
? How can we make use of the auto-encoder architecture to generate new data points ?
? Assuming we can pass a vector from that learnt latent space to the decoder, how can
guarantee it¡¯s not going to result in a garbage output.
? VAEs address the above problems
5. 1. How do we use the Auto Encoder Architecture for generation ?
So, if we train the Auto encoder network and somehow learn the data distribution of the latent
space, we can then sample from that latent space and pass it down to decoder and generate
data points
But, there is a problem.
7. 2. How can we make sure that if we sample from our latent space, we are going to get new
and meaningful output ?
? VAEs achieve this by constricting the latent space.

9. Calculating Marginal Probability
? If X = (x1, x2, x3) and Z = (z1, z2)
then,
? ? ? =
?(?|?)??(?)
?(?)
Here, the P(X) is very difficult to calculate, especially in higher dimensions.
It takes the form of ?1
?2
? ?1, ?2, ?3, ?1, ?2 ??1 ? ??2 and is intractable.
There are ways to solving this by using,
1. Using Monte Carlo Integration techniques
2. Variational Inference
11. As x is already given, log p(x) is a constant.
And KL(q(z) || p(z|x)) is what we wanted to minimize and it is always
>= 0
0 <= p(x) <= 1 and KL >= 0
So, it is equivalent to maximizing the 3rd term.
It is called Variational Lower bound
12. This is nothing but,
Expectation of p(x|z) w.r.t q(z|x) +
KL(q(z) || p(z|x))
So, Maximizing lower bound means,
Minimizing KL (as >=0), and
For a given q and z, maximize the the likelihood of observing the x
