Painless Stochastic Gradient: Interpolation, Line-Search, and Convergence Rates
Recent works have shown that stochastic gradient descent (SGD) achieves the fast convergence rates of full-batch gradient descent for …
Real-Time Reinforcement Learning
Markov Decision Processes (MDPs), the mathematical framework underlying most algorithms in Reinforcement Learning (RL), are often used …
Reducing Noise in GAN Training with Variance Reduced Extragradient
We study the effect of the stochastic gradient noise on the training of generative adversarial networks (GANs) and show that it can …
Active Domain Randomization
Domain randomization is a popular technique for improving domain transfer, often used in a zero-shot setting when the target domain is …
SEVN: A Sidewalk Simulation Environment for Visual Navigation
Millions of blind and visually-impaired (BVI) people navigate urban environments every day, using smartphones for high-level …
Adaptive Masked Proxies for Few-Shot Segmentation
Deep learning has thrived by training on large-scale datasets. However, in robotics applications sample efficiency is critical. We …
Domain-Adaptive Single-view 3D Reconstruction
Single-view 3D shape reconstruction is an important but challenging problem, mainly for two reasons. First, as shape annotation is very …
Physical Adversarial Textures that Fool Visual Object Tracking
We present a system for generating inconspicuous-looking textures that, when displayed in the physical world as digital or printed …
Where are the Masks: Instance Segmentation with Image-level Supervision
A major obstacle in instance segmentation is that existing methods often need many per-pixel labels in order to be effective. These …
The Impact of Preprocessing on Arabic-English Statistical and Neural Machine Translation
Neural networks have become the state-of-the-art approach for machine translation (MT) in many languages. While …
