Exploiting Space Folding by Neural Networks

AAAI 2026technical

Recent findings suggest that consecutive layers of neural networks with the ReLU activation function fold the input space during the learning process. While many works hint at this phenomenon, an approach to quantify the folding was only recently proposed by means of a space folding measure based on

Geometrically Inspired Kernel Machines for Collaborative Learning Beyond Gradient Descent (Abstract Reprint)

AAAI 2026technical

This paper develops a novel mathematical framework for collaborative learning by means of geometrically inspired kernel machines which includes statements on the bounds of generalisation and approximation errors, and sample complexity. For classification problems, this approach allows us to learn bo

On Mitigating the Utility-Loss in Differentially Private Learning: A New Perspective by a Geometrically Inspired Kernel Approach (Abstract Reprint)

IJCAI 2024poster

Privacy-utility tradeoff remains as one of the fundamental issues of differentially private machine learning. This paper introduces a geometrically inspired kernel-based approach to mitigate the accuracy-loss issue in classification. In this approach, a representation of the affine hull of given dat…

Addressing Parameter Choice Issues in Unsupervised Domain Adaptation by Aggregation

ICLR 2023top-5%

We study the problem of choosing algorithm hyper-parameters in unsupervised domain adaptation, i.e., with labeled data in a source domain and unlabeled data in a target domain, drawn from a different input distribution. We follow the strategy to compute several models using different hyper-parameter…

Tessellation-Filtering ReLU Neural Networks

IJCAI 2022poster

We identify tessellation-filtering ReLU neural networks that, when composed with another ReLU network, keep its non-redundant tessellation unchanged or reduce it.The additional network complexity modifies the shape of the decision surface without increasing the number of linear regions. We provid…

The balancing principle for parameter choice in distance-regularized domain adaptation

NeurIPS 2021poster

We address the unsolved algorithm design problem of choosing a justified regularization parameter in unsupervised domain adaptation. This problem is intriguing as no labels are available in the target domain. Our approach starts with the observation that the widely-used method of minimizing the sour…
