Unsupervised Learning of Dense Visual Representations
Pedro O. Pinheiro, Amjad Almahairi, Ryan Y. Benmalek +2
Contrastive self-supervised learning has emerged as a promising approach to unsupervised visual representation learning. In general, these methods learn global (image-level) repres…
The Impact of Preprocessing on Arabic-English Statistical and Neural Machine Translation
Mai Oudah, Amjad Almahairi, Nizar Habash
Neural networks have become the state-of-the-art approach for machine translation (MT) in many languages. While linguistically-motivated tokenization techniques were shown to have…
Adversarial Computation of Optimal Transport Maps
Jacob Leygonie, Jennifer She, Amjad Almahairi +2
Computing optimal transport maps between high-dimensional and continuous distributions is a challenging problem in optimal transport (OT). Generative adversarial networks (GANs) ar…
A Closer Look at the Optimization Landscapes of Generative Adversarial Networks
Hugo Berard, Gauthier Gidel, Amjad Almahairi +2
Generative adversarial networks have been very successful in generative modeling, however they remain relatively challenging to train compared to standard deep neural networks. In…
Learning Distributed Representations from Reviews for Collaborative Filtering
Amjad Almahairi, Kyle Kastner, Kyunghyun Cho +1
Recent work has shown that collaborative filter-based recommender systems can be improved by incorporating side information, such as natural language reviews, as a way of regulariz…
Augmented CycleGAN: Learning Many-to-Many Mappings from Unpaired Data
Amjad Almahairi, Sai Rajeswar, Alessandro Sordoni +2
Learning inter-domain mappings from unpaired data can improve performance in structured prediction tasks, such as image segmentation, by reducing the need for paired data. CycleGAN…
