• Abstract: Relational databases are the de facto standard for storing and querying structured data, and extracting insights from structured data requires advanced analytics. Deep neural networks (DNNs) have achieved super-human prediction performance in particular data types, e.g., images. However, existing DNNs may not produce meaningful results when applied to structured data. The reason is that there are correlations and dependencies across combinations of attribute values in a table, and these do not follow simple additive patterns that can be easily mimicked by a DNN. The number of possible such cross features is combinatorial, making them computationally prohibitive to model. Furthermore, the deployment of learning models in real-world applications has also highlighted the need for interpretability, especially for high-stakes applications, which remains another issue of concern to DNNs. In this paper, we present ARM-Net, an adaptive relation modeling network tailored for structured data, and a lightweight framework ARMOR based on ARM-Net for relational data analytics. The key idea is to model feature interactions with cross features selectively and dynamically, by first transforming the input features into exponential space, and then determining the interaction order and interaction weights adaptively for each cross feature. We propose a novel sparse attention mechanism to dynamically generate the interaction weights given the input tuple, so that we can explicitly model cross features of arbitrary orders with noisy features filtered selectively. Then during model inference, ARM-Net can specify the cross features being used for each prediction for higher accuracy and better interpretability. Our extensive experiments on real-world datasets demonstrate that ARM-Net consistently outperforms existing models and provides more interpretable predictions for data-driven decision making.

  We propose a feature concatenation approach to enhance decoding models' generalization. We combine the EEGNet model, a standard convolutional neural network for EEG signal classification, with functional connectivity measures derived from resting-state EEG data. While an improvement in mean accuracy for within-user scenarios is observed, concatenation doesn't benefit across-user scenarios when compared with random data concatenation.

  Out-of-distribution (OOD) detection has recently received much attention from the machine learning community due to its importance in deploying machine learning models in real-world applications. In this paper we propose an uncertainty quantification approach by modelling the distribution of features. We incorporate an efficient ensemble mechanism, namely batch-ensemble, to construct the batch-ensemble neural networks (BE-SNNs) and overcome the feature collapse problem. We show that BE-SNNs yield superior performance on several OOD benchmarks, such as the Two-Moons dataset, the FashionMNIST vs MNIST dataset, FashionM

I-RNN specifically captures the unique characteristics of clinical time series, which are unevenly sampled in time, asynchronously acquired, and have missing data. We evaluate the I-RNN model on the Physionet 2012 Challenge dataset to predict in-hospital mortality, and on a real-world clinical decision support task: predicting hemodynamic interventions in the intensive care unit.

  We analyze a corpus of models made publicly-available for a contest to predict the generalization accuracy of neural network (NN) models. We identify what amounts to a Simpson's paradox: where "scale" metrics perform well overall but perform poorly on sub partitions of the data. We present two novel shape metrics, one data-independent, and the other data-dependent, which can predict trends in the test accuracy of a series of NNs.

  Rank-R Feedforward Neural Network (FNN) is a tensor-based nonlinear learning model that imposes Canonical/Polyadic decomposition on its parameters. First, it handles inputs as multilinear arrays, bypassing the need for vectorization, and can thus fully exploit the structural information along every data dimension. We establish the universal approximation and learnability properties of Rank-R FNN, and we validate its performance on real-world hyperspectral datasets.
