• Abstract: The movement of large quantities of data during the training of a Deep Neural Network presents immense challenges for machine learning workloads. To minimize this overhead, especially on the movement and calculation of gradient information, we introduce streaming batch principal component analysis as an update algorithm. Streaming batch principal component analysis uses stochastic power iterations to generate a stochastic k-rank approximation of the network gradient. We demonstrate that the low rank updates produced by streaming batch principal component analysis can effectively train convolutional neural networks on a variety of common datasets, with performance comparable to standard mini batch gradient descent. These results can lead to both improvements in the design of application specific integrated circuits for deep learning and in the speed of synchronization of machine learning models trained with data parallelism.

  We present a supervised pretraining approach to learn circuit representations that can be adapted to new unseen topologies or unseen prediction tasks. To cope with the variable topological structure of different circuits we describe each circuit as a graph and use graph neural networks (GNNs) to learn node embeddings. We show that pretraining GNNs on prediction of output node voltages can encourage learning representations that can be adapted to new unseen topologies or prediction of new circuit level properties.

  Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) have shown impressive performance in computer vision tasks such as image classification, detection, and segmentation. We propose an elegant curriculum based scheme that smoothes the feature embedding of a CNN using anti-aliasing or low-pass filters. As the amount of information in the feature maps increases during training, the network is able to progressively learn better representations of the data.

• On transfer learning of neural networks using bi-fidelity data for uncertainty propagation [0.0]
  We explore the application of transfer learning techniques using training data generated from both high- and low-fidelity models. In the former approach, a neural network model mapping the inputs to the outputs of interest is trained based on the low-fidelity data. The high-fidelity data is then used to adapt the parameters of the upper layer(s) of the low-fidelity network, or train a simpler neural network to map the output of the low-fidelity network to that of the high-fidelity model.
