[EX Q]: Vector Symbolic Architectures (VSAs) are high-dimensional vector representations of objects (eg., words, image parts), relations (eg., sentence structures), and sequences for use with machine learning algorithms. They consist of a vector addition operator for representing a collection of unordered objects, a Binding operator for associating groups of objects, and a methodology for encoding complex structures. We first develop Constraints that machine learning imposes upon VSAs: for example, similar structures must be represented by similar vectors. The constraints suggest that current VSAs should represent phrases ("The smart Brazilian girl") by binding sums of terms, in addition to simply binding the terms directly. We show that matrix multiplication can be used as the binding operator for a VSA, and that matrix elements can be chosen at random. A consequence for living systems is that binding is mathematically possible without the need to specify, in advance, precise neuron-to-neuron connection properties for large numbers of synapses. A VSA that incorporates these ideas, MBAT (Matrix Binding of Additive Terms), is described that satisfies all Constraints. With respect to machine learning, for some types of problems appropriate VSA representations permit us to prove learnability, rather than relying on simulations. We also propose dividing machine (and neural) learning and representation into three Stages, with differing roles for learning in each stage. For neural modeling, we give "representational reasons" for nervous systems to have many recurrent connections, as well as for the importance of phrases in language processing. Sizing simulations and analyses suggest that VSAs in general, and MBAT in particular, are ready for real-world applications.

[EX Q]: Extracting per-frame features using convolutional neural networks for real-time processing of video data is currently mainly performed on powerful GPU-accelerated workstations and compute clusters. However, there are many applications such as smart surveillance cameras that require or would benefit from on-site processing. To this end, we propose and evaluate a novel algorithm for changebased evaluation of CNNs for video data recorded with a static camera setting, exploiting the spatio-temporal sparsity of pixel changes. We achieve an average speed-up of 8.6 over a cuDNN baseline on a realistic benchmark with a negligible accuracy loss of less than 0.1% and no retraining of the network. The resulting energy efficiency is 10 higher than per-frame evaluation and reaches an equivalent of 328GOp/s/W on the Tegra X1 platform.

[EX Q]: Self-paced learning (SPL) has been attracting increasing attention in machine learning and computer vision. Albeit empirically substantiated to be effective, the investigation on its theoretical insight is still a blank. It is even unknown that what objective a general SPL regime converges to. To this issue, this study attempts to initially provide some new insights under this "heuristic" learning scheme. Specifically, we prove that the solving strategy on SPL exactly accords with a majorization minimization algorithm, a well known technique in optimization and machine learning, implemented on a latent objective. A more interesting finding is that, the loss function contained in this latent objective has a similar configuration with non-convex regularized penalty, an attractive topic in statistics and machine learning. In particular, we show that the previous hard and linear self-paced regularizers are equivalent to the capped norm and minimax concave plus penalties, respectively, both being widely investigated in statistics. Such connections between SPL and previous known researches enhance new insightful comprehension on SPL, like convergence and parameter setting rationality. The correctness of the proposed theory is substantiated by experimental results on synthetic and UCI data sets.
