Beyond Backprop: Alternating Minimization with co-Activation Memory.

2018 · arXiv (Cornell University)

Despite significant recent advances in deep neural networks, training them remains a challenge due to the highly non-convex nature of the objective function. State-of-the-art methods rely on error backpropagation, which suffers from several well-known issues, …

Adversarial Learning-Based On-Line Anomaly Monitoring for Assured Autonomy

2018 · arXiv (Cornell University)

The paper proposes an on-line monitoring framework for continuous real-time safety/security in learning-based control systems (specifically application to a unmanned ground vehicle). We monitor validity of mappings from sensor inputs to actuator commands, controller-focused anomaly …
