• Abstract: This paper considers the problem of recovering signals modeled by generative models from linear measurements contaminated with sparse outliers. We propose an outlier detection approach for reconstructing the ground-truth signals modeled by generative models under sparse outliers. We establish theoretical recovery guarantees for reconstruction of signals using generative models in the presence of outliers, giving lower bounds on the number of correctable outliers. Our results are applicable to both linear generator neural networks and the nonlinear generator neural networks with an arbitrary number of layers. We propose an iterative alternating direction method of multipliers (ADMM) algorithm for solving the outlier detection problem via $\ell_1$ norm minimization, and a gradient descent algorithm for solving the outlier detection problem via squared $\ell_1$ norm minimization. We conduct extensive experiments using variational auto-encoder and deep convolutional generative adversarial networks, and the experimental results show that the signals can be successfully reconstructed under outliers using our approach. Our approach outperforms the traditional Lasso and $\ell_2$ minimization approach.

  We provide a unified analysis for a family of algorithms that encompasses IRLS, the recently proposed linlin-RFM algorithm, and the alternating diagonal neural networks. We show that, with appropriately chosen reweighting policy, a handful of sparse structures can achieve favorable performance. We also show that leveraging this in the reweighting scheme provably improves test error compared to coordinate-wise reweighting.

  This study presents an adversarial method for anomaly detection in real-world applications, leveraging the power of generative adversarial neural networks (GANs) Previous methods suffer from the high variance between class-wise accuracy which leads to not being applicable for all types of anomalies. The proposed method named RCALAD tries to solve this problem by introducing a novel discriminator to the structure, which results in a more efficient training process.

  We argue that the Gauss-Newton approximation should be understood as a local linearization of the underlying Bayesian neural network (BNN) Because we use this linearized model for posterior inference, we should also predict using this modified model instead of the original one. We refer to this modified predictive as "GLM predictive" and show that it effectively resolves common underfitting problems of the Laplace approximation.

  Deep generative models (GANs and VAEs) have been developed quite extensively in recent years. We define conditions that are applicable to any inversion algorithm (gradient descent, deep encoder, etc.) under which such generative models are invertible. We show that our method outperforms gradient descent when inverting such generators, both for clean and corrupted signals.

  Motivated by advances in compressive sensing with generative models, we study the problem of 1-bit compressive sensing with generative models. We first consider noiseless 1-bit measurements, and provide sample complexity bounds for approximate recovery under i.i.d.Gaussian measurements. We demonstrate that the Binary $epsilon$-Stable Embedding property, which characterizes the robustness of the reconstruction to measurement errors and noise, also holds for 1-bit compressive sensing with Lipschitz continuous generative models.
