Lightning-speed Structure Learning of Nonlinear Continuous Networks

چکیده
Graphical models are widely used to reason about high-dimensional domains. Yet, learning the structure of the model from data remains a formidable challenge, particularly in complex continuous domains. We present a highly accelerated structure learning approach for continuous densities based on the recently introduced Copula Bayesian Network representation. For two common copula families, we prove that the expected likelihood of a building block edge in the model is monotonic in Spearman’s rank correlation measure. We also show numerically that the same relationship holds for many other copula families. This allows us to perform structure learning while bypassing costly parameter estimation as well as explicit computation of the log-likelihood function. We demonstrate the merit of our approach for structure learning in three varied real-life domains. Importantly, the computational benefits are such that they open the door for practical scaling-up of structure learning in complex nonlinear continuous domains.

Stable Rough Extreme Learning Machines for the Identification of Uncertain Continuous-Time Nonlinear Systems
Rough extreme learning machines (RELMs) are rough-neural networks with one hidden layer where the parameters between the inputs and hidden neurons are arbitrarily chosen and never updated. In this paper, we propose RELMs with a stable online learning algorithm for the identification of continuous-time nonlinear systems in the presence of noises and uncertainties, and we prove the global ...

متن کاملDetecting Overlapping Communities in Social Networks using Deep Learning
In network analysis, a community is typically considered of as a group of nodes with a great density of edges among themselves and a low density of edges relative to other network parts. Detecting a community structure is important in any network analysis task, especially for revealing patterns between specified nodes. There is a variety of approaches presented in the literature for overlapping...
