Rebellion: Noise-Robust Reasoning Training for Audio Reasoning Models

Tiansheng Huang, Virat Shejwalkar, Oscar Chang +2

Instilling reasoning capabilities in large models (LMs) using reasoning training (RT) significantly improves LMs' performances. Thus Audio Reasoning Models (ARMs), i.e., audio LMs…

Accelerating Meta-Learning by Sharing Gradients

Oscar Chang, Hod Lipson

The success of gradient-based meta-learning is primarily attributed to its ability to leverage related tasks to learn task-invariant information. However, the absence of interactio…

Agent Embeddings: A Latent Representation for Pole-Balancing Networks

Oscar Chang, Robert Kwiatkowski, Siyuan Chen +1

We show that it is possible to reduce a high-dimensional object like a neural network agent into a low-dimensional vector representation with semantic meaning that we call agent em…

Gradient Normalization & Depth Based Decay For Deep Learning

Robert Kwiatkowski, Oscar Chang

In this paper we introduce a novel method of gradient normalization and decay with respect to depth. Our method leverages the simple concept of normalizing all gradients in a deep…
