• Authors: Harsh Rangwani, Konda Reddy Mopuri, and R. Venkatesh Babu
• Abstract summary: We introduce a novel theoretically motivated Class Balancing regularizer for training GANs. Our regularizer makes use of the knowledge from a pre-trained classifier to ensure balanced learning of all the classes in the dataset. We demonstrate the utility of our regularizer in learning representations for long-tailed distributions via achieving better performance than existing approaches over multiple datasets.

• Abstract: Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) have swiftly evolved to imitate increasingly complex image distributions. However, majority of the developments focus on performance of GANs on balanced datasets. We find that the existing GANs and their training regimes which work well on balanced datasets fail to be effective in case of imbalanced (i.e. long-tailed) datasets. In this work we introduce a novel theoretically motivated Class Balancing regularizer for training GANs. Our regularizer makes use of the knowledge from a pre-trained classifier to ensure balanced learning of all the classes in the dataset. This is achieved via modelling the effective class frequency based on the exponential forgetting observed in neural networks and encouraging the GAN to focus on underrepresented classes. We demonstrate the utility of our regularizer in learning representations for long-tailed distributions via achieving better performance than existing approaches over multiple datasets. Specifically, when applied to an unconditional GAN, it improves the FID from $13.03$ to $9.01$ on the long-tailed iNaturalist-$2019$ dataset.

  Federated learning offers a paradigm to the challenge of preserving privacy in distributed machine learning. Traditional approach fails to address the phenomenon of class-wise bias in global long-tailed data. New method FedLF introduces three modifications in the local training phase: adaptive logit adjustment, continuous class centred optimization, and feature decorrelation.

  Generative adversarial networks (GANs) usually struggle in learning from highly diverse data, whose underlying manifold is complex. We show that score matching serves as a promising solution to this issue thanks to its capability of persistently pushing the generated data points towards the real data manifold. We propose to improve the optimization of GANs with score matching regularity (SMaRt)

• Class Instance Balanced Learning for Long-Tailed Classification [0.0]
  Long-tailed image classification task deals with large imbalances in the class frequencies of the training data. Previous approaches have shown that combining cross-entropy and contrastive learning can improve performance on the long-tailed task. We propose a novel class instance balanced loss (CIBL), which reweights the relative contributions of a cross-entropy and a contrastive loss as a function of the frequency of class instances in the training batch.

  Federated Learning (FL) has become a popular distributed learning paradigm that involves multiple clients training a global model collaboratively. The data samples usually follow a long-tailed distribution in the real world, and FL on the decentralized and long-tailed data yields a poorly-behaved global model. In this work, we integrate the local real data with the global gradient prototypes to form the local balanced datasets.
