Seeded graph matching for the correlated Gaussian Wigner model via the projected power method

Ernesto Araya, Guillaume Braun, Hemant Tyagi

In the \emph{graph matching} problem we observe two graphs and the goal is to find an assignment (or matching) between their vertices such that some measure of edge agreement…

Model-based Clustering with Missing Not At Random Data

Aude Sportisse, Matthieu Marbac, Fabien Laporte +4

Model-based unsupervised learning, as any learning task, stalls as soon as missing data occurs. This is even more true when the missing data are informative, or said missing not at…

Upper and Lower Bounds on the Performance of Kernel PCA

Maxime Haddouche, Benjamin Guedj, John Shawe-Taylor

Principal Component Analysis (PCA) is a popular method for dimension reduction and has attracted an unfailing interest for decades. More recently, kernel PCA (KPCA) has emerged as…

Learning Binary Decision Trees by Argmin Differentiation

Valentina Zantedeschi, Matt J. Kusner, Vlad Niculae

We address the problem of learning binary decision trees that partition data for some downstream task. We propose to learn discrete parameters (i.e., for tree traversals and node p…

MAGMA: Inference and Prediction with Multi-Task Gaussian Processes

Arthur Leroy, Pierre Latouche, Benjamin Guedj +1

A novel multi-task Gaussian process (GP) framework is proposed, by using a common mean process for sharing information across tasks. In particular, we investigate the problem of ti…

PAC-Bayesian Bound for the Conditional Value at Risk

Zakaria Mhammedi, Benjamin Guedj, Robert C. Williamson

Conditional Value at Risk (CVaR) is a family of "coherent risk measures" which generalize the traditional mathematical expectation. Widely used in mathematical finance, it is garne…

Differentiable PAC-Bayes Objectives with Partially Aggregated Neural Networks

Felix Biggs, Benjamin Guedj

We make three related contributions motivated by the challenge of training stochastic neural networks, particularly in a PAC-Bayesian setting: (1) we show how averaging over an ens…

From industry-wide parameters to aircraft-centric on-flight inference: improving aeronautics performance prediction with machine learning

Florent Dewez, Benjamin Guedj, Vincent Vandewalle

Aircraft performance models play a key role in airline operations, especially in planning a fuel-efficient flight. In practice, manufacturers provide guidelines which are slightly…

PAC-Bayesian Contrastive Unsupervised Representation Learning

Kento Nozawa, Pascal Germain, Benjamin Guedj

Contrastive unsupervised representation learning (CURL) is the state-of-the-art technique to learn representations (as a set of features) from unlabelled data. While CURL has colle…

Online k-means Clustering

Vincent Cohen-Addad, Benjamin Guedj, Varun Kanade +1

We study the problem of online clustering where a clustering algorithm has to assign a new point that arrives to one of clusters. The specific formulation we use is the -mea…

Ranking and synchronization from pairwise measurements via SVD

Alexandre d'Aspremont, Mihai Cucuringu, Hemant Tyagi

Given a measurement graph and an unknown signal , we investigate algorithms for recovering from pairwise measurements of the form ; $\…

PAC-Bayes Un-Expected Bernstein Inequality

Zakaria Mhammedi, Peter D. Grunwald, Benjamin Guedj

We present a new PAC-Bayesian generalization bound. Standard bounds contain a $\sqrt{L_n \cdot \KL/n}$ complexity term which dominates unless , the empirical error of the lear…

Non-linear aggregation of filters to improve image denoising

Benjamin Guedj, Juliette Rengot

We introduce a novel aggregation method to efficiently perform image denoising. Preliminary filters are aggregated in a non-linear fashion, using a new metric of pixel proximity ba…

A Primer on PAC-Bayesian Learning

Benjamin Guedj

Generalised Bayesian learning algorithms are increasingly popular in machine learning, due to their PAC generalisation properties and flexibility. The present paper aims at providi…

Pseudo-Bayesian Learning with Kernel Fourier Transform as Prior

Gaël Letarte, Emilie Morvant, Pascal Germain

We revisit Rahimi and Recht (2007)'s kernel random Fourier features (RFF) method through the lens of the PAC-Bayesian theory. While the primary goal of RFF is to approximate a kern…

Sequential Learning of Principal Curves: Summarizing Data Streams on the Fly

Benjamin Guedj, Le Li

When confronted with massive data streams, summarizing data with dimension reduction methods such as PCA raises theoretical and algorithmic pitfalls. Principal curves act as a nonl…

Decentralized learning with budgeted network load using Gaussian copulas and classifier ensembles

John Klein, Mahmoud Albardan, Benjamin Guedj +1

We examine a network of learners which address the same classification task but must learn from different data sets. The learners cannot share data but instead share their models.…

PAC-Bayes and Domain Adaptation

Pascal Germain, Amaury Habrard, François Laviolette +1

We provide two main contributions in PAC-Bayesian theory for domain adaptation where the objective is to learn, from a source distribution, a well-performing majority vote on a dif…
