In this task, you are given the abstract of a research paper. Your task is to generate a summary of this abstract. Your summary should not be very short, but it's better if it's not more than 30 words.

Input: Consider Input: In colored graphs, node classes are often associated with either their neighbors class or with information not incorporated in the graph associated with each node. We here propose that node classes are also associated with topological features of the nodes. We use this association to improve Graph machine learning in general and specifically, Graph Convolutional Networks (GCN). 

 First, we show that even in the absence of any external information on nodes, a good accuracy can be obtained on the prediction of the node class using either topological features, or using the neighbors class as an input to a GCN. This accuracy is slightly less than the one that can be obtained using content based GCN.

 Secondly, we show that explicitly adding the topology as an input to the GCN does not improve the accuracy when combined with external information on nodes. However,  adding an additional adjacency matrix with edges between distant nodes with similar topology to the GCN does significantly improve its accuracy, leading to results better than all state of the art methods in multiple datasets.

Output: Topology-Based Graph Convolutional Network (GCN)


Input: Consider Input: The adversarial training procedure proposed by Madry et al. (2018) is one of the most effective methods to defend against adversarial examples in deep neural net- works (DNNs). In our paper, we shed some lights on the practicality and the hardness of adversarial training by showing that the effectiveness (robustness on test set) of adversarial training has a strong correlation with the distance between a test point and the manifold of training data embedded by the network. Test examples that are relatively far away from this manifold are more likely to be vulnerable to adversarial attacks. Consequentially, an adversarial training based defense is susceptible to a new class of attacks, the “blind-spot attack”, where the input images reside in “blind-spots” (low density regions) of the empirical distri- bution of training data but is still on the ground-truth data manifold. For MNIST, we found that these blind-spots can be easily found by simply scaling and shifting image pixel values. Most importantly, for large datasets with high dimensional and complex data manifold (CIFAR, ImageNet, etc), the existence of blind-spots in adversarial training makes defending on any valid test examples difficult due to the curse of dimensionality and the scarcity of training data. Additionally, we find that blind-spots also exist on provable defenses including (Kolter & Wong, 2018) and (Sinha et al., 2018) because these trainable robustness certificates can only be practically optimized on a limited set of training data.

Output: We show that even the strongest adversarial training methods cannot defend against adversarial examples crafted on slightly scaled and shifted test images.


Input: Consider Input: We explore ways of incorporating bilingual dictionaries to enable semi-supervised
 neural machine translation. Conventional back-translation methods have shown
 success in leveraging target side monolingual data. However, since the quality of
 back-translation models is tied to the size of the available parallel corpora, this
 could adversely impact the synthetically generated sentences in a low resource
 setting. We propose a simple data augmentation technique to address both this
 shortcoming. We incorporate widely available bilingual dictionaries that yield
 word-by-word translations to generate synthetic sentences. This automatically
 expands the vocabulary of the model while maintaining high quality content. Our
 method shows an appreciable improvement in performance over strong baselines.


Output: We use bilingual dictionaries for data augmentation for neural machine translation
