Decoupling the "What" and "Where" With Polar Coordinate Positional Embeddings

Anand Gopalakrishnan, Robert Csordás, Jürgen Schmidhuber +1

The attention mechanism in a Transformer architecture matches key to query based on both content -- the what -- and position in a sequence -- the where. We present an analysis indi…

Enhancing JEPAs with Spatial Conditioning: Robust and Efficient Representation Learning

Etai Littwin, Vimal Thilak, Anand Gopalakrishnan

Image-based Joint-Embedding Predictive Architecture (IJEPA) offers an attractive alternative to Masked Autoencoder (MAE) for representation learning using the Masked Image Modeling…

Recurrent Complex-Weighted Autoencoders for Unsupervised Object Discovery

Anand Gopalakrishnan, Aleksandar Stanić, Jürgen Schmidhuber +1

Current state-of-the-art synchrony-based models encode object bindings with complex-valued activations and compute with real-valued weights in feedforward architectures. We argue f…

Unsupervised Musical Object Discovery from Audio

Joonsu Gha, Vincent Herrmann, Benjamin Grewe +2

Current object-centric learning models such as the popular SlotAttention architecture allow for unsupervised visual scene decomposition. Our novel MusicSlots method adapts SlotAtte…

Exploring the Promise and Limits of Real-Time Recurrent Learning

Kazuki Irie, Anand Gopalakrishnan, Jürgen Schmidhuber

Real-time recurrent learning (RTRL) for sequence-processing recurrent neural networks (RNNs) offers certain conceptual advantages over backpropagation through time (BPTT). RTRL req…

Mindstorms in Natural Language-Based Societies of Mind

Mingchen Zhuge, Haozhe Liu, Francesco Faccio +23

Both Minsky's "society of mind" and Schmidhuber's "learning to think" inspire diverse societies of large multimodal neural networks (NNs) that solve problems by interviewing each o…

Contrastive Training of Complex-Valued Autoencoders for Object Discovery

Aleksandar Stanić, Anand Gopalakrishnan, Kazuki Irie +1

Current state-of-the-art object-centric models use slots and attention-based routing for binding. However, this class of models has several conceptual limitations: the number of sl…

Unsupervised Learning of Temporal Abstractions with Slot-based Transformers

Anand Gopalakrishnan, Kazuki Irie, Jürgen Schmidhuber +1

The discovery of reusable sub-routines simplifies decision-making and planning in complex reinforcement learning problems. Previous approaches propose to learn such temporal abstra…

Unsupervised Object Keypoint Learning using Local Spatial Predictability

Anand Gopalakrishnan, Sjoerd van Steenkiste, Jürgen Schmidhuber

We propose PermaKey, a novel approach to representation learning based on object keypoints. It leverages the predictability of local image regions from spatial neighborhoods to ide…

A Neural Temporal Model for Human Motion Prediction

Anand Gopalakrishnan, Ankur Mali, Dan Kifer +2

We propose novel neural temporal models for predicting and synthesizing human motion, achieving state-of-the-art in modeling long-term motion trajectories while being competitive w…
