Learning from a Learning User for Optimal Recommendations
Fan Yao, Chuanhao Li, Denis Nekipelov +2
In real-world recommendation problems, especially those with a formidably large item space, users have to gradually learn to estimate the utility of any fresh recommendations from…
Learning the Optimal Recommendation from Explorative Users
Fan Yao, Chuanhao Li, Denis Nekipelov +2
We propose a new problem setting to study the sequential interactions between a recommender system and a user. Instead of assuming the user is omniscient, static, and explicit, as…
RA-BNN: Constructing Robust & Accurate Binary Neural Network to Simultaneously Defend Adversarial Bit-Flip Attack and Improve Accuracy
Adnan Siraj Rakin, Li Yang, Jingtao Li +5
Recently developed adversarial weight attack, a.k.a. bit-flip attack (BFA), has shown enormous success in compromising Deep Neural Network (DNN) performance with an extremely small…
Reversible Action Design for Combinatorial Optimization with Reinforcement Learning
Fan Yao, Renqin Cai, Hongning Wang
Combinatorial optimization problem (COP) over graphs is a fundamental challenge in optimization. Reinforcement learning (RL) has recently emerged as a new framework to tackle these…
PAC-Learning for Strategic Classification
Ravi Sundaram, Anil Vullikanti, Haifeng Xu +1
The study of strategic or adversarial manipulation of testing data to fool a classifier has attracted much recent attention. Most previous works have focused on two extreme situati…
T-BFA: Targeted Bit-Flip Adversarial Weight Attack
Adnan Siraj Rakin, Zhezhi He, Jingtao Li +3
Traditional Deep Neural Network (DNN) security is mostly related to the well-known adversarial input example attack. Recently, another dimension of adversarial attack, namely, atta…
Greedy Step Averaging: A parameter-free stochastic optimization method
Xiatian Zhang, Fan Yao, Yongjun Tian
In this paper we present the greedy step averaging(GSA) method, a parameter-free stochastic optimization algorithm for a variety of machine learning problems. As a gradient-based o…
