Deep Adder Networks on Edge Devices. This project aims to empower edge devices with intelligence by developing advanced deep neural networks that address the conflict between the high resource requirements of deep learning and the generally inadequate performance of the edge. Multiplication has been the dominant type of operation in deep learning, though the addition is known to be much cheaper. This project expects to yield theories and algorithms that allow deep neural networks consisting of n ....Deep Adder Networks on Edge Devices. This project aims to empower edge devices with intelligence by developing advanced deep neural networks that address the conflict between the high resource requirements of deep learning and the generally inadequate performance of the edge. Multiplication has been the dominant type of operation in deep learning, though the addition is known to be much cheaper. This project expects to yield theories and algorithms that allow deep neural networks consisting of nearly pure additions to fulfil the requisites of accuracy, robustness, calibration and generalisation in real-world computer vision tasks. The success of this project will benefit deep learning-based products on smartphones or robots in health and cybersecurity.Read moreRead less
Modelling Adversarial Noise for Trustworthy Data Analytics. Adversarial robustness is a core property of trustworthy machine learning. This project aims to equip machines with the ability to model adversarial noise for defending adversarial attacks. The project expects to produce the next great step for artificial intelligence – the potential to robustly explore and exploit deceptive data. Expected outcomes of this project include theoretical foundations for modelling adversarial noise and the n ....Modelling Adversarial Noise for Trustworthy Data Analytics. Adversarial robustness is a core property of trustworthy machine learning. This project aims to equip machines with the ability to model adversarial noise for defending adversarial attacks. The project expects to produce the next great step for artificial intelligence – the potential to robustly explore and exploit deceptive data. Expected outcomes of this project include theoretical foundations for modelling adversarial noise and the next generation of intelligent systems to accommodate data in a noisy and hostile environment. This should benefit science, society, and the economy nationally and internationally through the applications to trustworthily analyse their corresponding complex data. Read moreRead less
