• Abstract: Parameterized artificial neural networks (ANNs) can be very expressive ansatzes for variational algorithms, reaching state-of-the-art energies on many quantum many-body Hamiltonians. Nevertheless, the training of the ANN can be slow and stymied by the presence of local minima in the parameter landscape. One approach to mitigate this issue is to use parallel tempering methods, and in this work we focus on the role played by the temperature distribution of the parallel tempering replicas. Using an adaptive method that adjusts the temperatures in order to equate the exchange probability between neighboring replicas, we show that this temperature optimization can significantly increase the success rate of the variational algorithm with negligible computational cost by eliminating bottlenecks in the replicas' random walk. We demonstrate this using two different neural networks, a restricted Boltzmann machine and a feedforward network, which we use to study a toy problem based on a permutation invariant Hamiltonian with a pernicious local minimum and the J1-J2 model on a rectangular lattice.

  We propose a novel methodology for addressing the hyperspectral image deconvolution problem.

The derived iterative solver is then expressed as a fixed-point calculation problem within the Deep Equilibrium framework.

  We develop an ODE based IVP solver which prevents the network from getting ill-conditioned and runs in time linear in the number of parameters. We show that current methods based on this approach suffer from two key issues. First, following the ODE produces an uncontrolled growth in the conditioning of the problem, ultimately leading to unacceptably large numerical errors.

  We propose a novel neural algorithm for the fundamental problem of computing the entropic optimal transport (EOT) plan between continuous probability distributions. Our algorithm is based on the saddle point reformulation of the dynamic version of EOT which is known as the Schr"odinger Bridge problem. In contrast to the prior methods for large-scale EOT, our algorithm is end-to-end and consists of a single learning step.

  It is not feasible to calculate the Jensen-Shannon divergence of the density function of the data and the density function of the model of deep neural networks. Generative adversarial networks (GANs) can be used to formulate this problem as a discriminative problem with two models, a generator and a discriminator. We propose to apply the conjugate gradient method to solve the local Nash equilibrium problem in GANs.

  Filtering equations play a central role in many real-life applications, including numerical weather prediction, finance and engineering. One of the classical approaches to approximate the solution of the filtering equations is to use a PDE inspired method, called the splitting-up method. We combine this method with a neural network representation to produce an approximation of the unnormalised conditional distribution of the signal process.

  Energy-based models (EBMs) are generative models that are usually trained via maximum likelihood estimation. We propose a dual formulation of an EBMs algorithm in which the particles are sometimes restarted at random samples drawn from the data set, and show that performing these restarts corresponds to a score every step. These results are illustrated in simple numerical experiments.
