PT-MMD: A Novel Statistical Framework for the Evaluation of Generative Systems
Faculty: Alexander Cloninger, Ph.D. Abstract— Stochastic-sampling-based Generative Neural Networks, such as Restricted Boltzmann Machines and Generative Adversarial Networks, are now used for applications such as denoising, image occlusion r..
Estimation of Expected Euler Characteristic Curves of Nonstationary Smooth Gaussian Random Fields
Faculty: Armin Schwartzman, Ph.D. The expected Euler characteristic (EEC) curve of excursion sets of a Gaussian random field is used to approximate the distribution of its supremum for high thresholds. Viewed as a function of the excursion thr..
Visualizing the PHATE of Neural Networks
Faculty: Gal Mishne, Ph.D. Abstract: Understanding why and how certain neural networks outperform others is key to guiding future development of network architectures and optimization methods. To this end, we introduce a novel visualization al..
