Q: Metric learning seeks a transformation of the feature space that enhances prediction quality for the given task at hand. In this work we provide PAC-style sample complexity rates for supervised metric learning. We give matching lowerand upper-bounds showing that the sample complexity scales with the representation dimension when no assumptions are made about the underlying data distribution. However, by leveraging the structure of the data distribution, we show that one can achieve rates that are fine-tuned to a specific notion of intrinsic complexity for a given dataset. Our analysis reveals that augmenting the metric learning optimization criterion with a simple norm-based regularization can help adapt to a dataset’s intrinsic complexity, yielding better generalization. Experiments on benchmark datasets validate our analysis and show that regularizing the metric can help discern the signal even when the data contains high amounts of noise.

Q: Recent work has proposed several generative neural models for constituency parsing that achieve state-of-the-art results. Since direct search in these generative models is difficult, they have primarily been used to rescore candidate outputs from base parsers in which decoding is more straightforward. We first present an algorithm for direct search in these generative models. We then demonstrate that the rescoring results are at least partly due to implicit model combination rather than reranking effects. Finally, we show that explicit model combination can improve performance even further, resulting in new state-of-the-art numbers on the PTB of 94.25 F1 when training only on gold data and 94.66 F1 when using external data.

Q: We propose a conceptually simple and lightweight framework for deep reinforcement learning that uses asynchronous gradient descent for optimization of deep neural network controllers. We present asynchronous variants of four standard reinforcement learning algorithms and show that parallel actor-learners have a stabilizing effect on training allowing all four methods to successfully train neural network controllers. The best performing method, an asynchronous variant of actor-critic, surpasses the current state-of-the-art on the Atari domain while training for half the time on a single multi-core CPU instead of a GPU. Furthermore, we show that asynchronous actor-critic succeeds on a wide variety of continuous motor control problems as well as on a new task involving finding rewards in random 3D mazes using a visual input.
