The effect of recurrence on adversarial robustness

Traditionally, convolutional neural networks are feedforward networks with a deep and complex hierarchy. Conversely, the human brain has a relatively shallow hierarchy with recurrent connections. Replicating this recurrence may allow for shallower and easier to understand computer vision models that may possess characteristics usually attributed...

REAL Reinforcement Learning: Planning with adversarial models

Model-Based Reinforcement Learning (MBRL) algorithms solve sequential decision-making problems, usually formalised as Markov Decision Processes, using a model of the environment dynamics to compute the optimal policy. When dealing with complex environments, the environment dynamics are frequently approximated with function approximators (such as...
