There is an urgent need to develop a new machine learning (ML) paradigm that can overcome data-privacy and model-size constraints in real-world applications. This project aims to develop an advanced paradigm of ML with bilevel optimisation, called bilevel ML. A theoretically-guaranteed fast approximate solver and a new fuzzy bilevel learning framework will be developed to achieve the aim in complex situations; a methodology to transfer knowledge and an approach to fast-adapt bilevel optimization solutions when required computing resources change. The anticipated outcomes should significantly improve the reliability of ML with benefits for safety learning and computing resource optimisation in ML-based data analytics.Read moreRead less

It is urgent to develop a new hypothesis transfer learning scheme that can overcome potential risks when finetuning unreliable large-scale pre-trained models. This project aims to develop an advanced and reliable scheme of hypothesis transfer learning, called Trustworthy Hypothesis Transfer Learning (TrustHTL). A new theoretically guaranteed heterogeneous hypothesis transfer learning framework will be developed to handle heterogeneous situations; a methodology to disinherit risks of pre-trained models and a new fuzzy relation based distributional discrepancy in heterogeneous transfer learning scenarios. The outcomes should significantly improve the reliability of machine learning with benefits for safety learning in data analytics.Read moreRead less
