SASSL: Enhancing Self-Supervised Learning via Neural Style Transfer

Renan A. Rojas-Gomez, Karan Singhal, Ali Etemad +3

Existing data augmentation in self-supervised learning, while diverse, fails to preserve the inherent structure of natural images. This results in distorted augmented samples with…

Random Field Augmentations for Self-Supervised Representation Learning

Philip Andrew Mansfield, Arash Afkanpour, Warren Richard Morningstar +1

Self-supervised representation learning is heavily dependent on data augmentations to specify the invariances encoded in representations. Previous work has shown that applying dive…

What Do We Mean by Generalization in Federated Learning?

Honglin Yuan, Warren Morningstar, Lin Ning +1

Federated learning data is drawn from a distribution of distributions: clients are drawn from a meta-distribution, and their data are drawn from local data distributions. Thus gene…

VIB is Half Bayes

Alexander A Alemi, Warren R Morningstar, Ben Poole +2

In discriminative settings such as regression and classification there are two random variables at play, the inputs X and the targets Y. Here, we demonstrate that the Variational I…

Hunting for Dark Matter Subhalos in Strong Gravitational Lensing with Neural Networks

Joshua Yao-Yu Lin, Hang Yu, Warren Morningstar +2

Dark matter substructures are interesting since they can reveal the properties of dark matter. Collisionless N-body simulations of cold dark matter show more substructures compared…

PAC-Bayes: Narrowing the Empirical Risk Gap in the Misspecified Bayesian Regime

Warren R. Morningstar, Alexander A. Alemi, Joshua V. Dillon

The Bayesian posterior minimizes the "inferential risk" which itself bounds the "predictive risk". This bound is tight when the likelihood and prior are well-specified. However sin…

Density of States Estimation for Out-of-Distribution Detection

Warren R. Morningstar, Cusuh Ham, Andrew G. Gallagher +3

Perhaps surprisingly, recent studies have shown probabilistic model likelihoods have poor specificity for out-of-distribution (OOD) detection and often assign higher likelihoods to…

Automatic Differentiation Variational Inference with Mixtures

Warren R. Morningstar, Sharad M. Vikram, Cusuh Ham +2

Automatic Differentiation Variational Inference (ADVI) is a useful tool for efficiently learning probabilistic models in machine learning. Generally approximate posteriors learned…

A massive core for a cluster of galaxies at a redshift of 4.3

T. B. Miller, S. C. Chapman, M. Aravena +35

Massive galaxy clusters are now found as early as 3 billion years after the Big Bang, containing stars that formed at even earlier epochs. The high-redshift progenitors of these ga…
