Body Fat Estimation from Surface Meshes using Graph Neural Networks

no code implementations13 Jul 2023 Tamara T. Mueller, Siyu Zhou, Sophie Starck, Friederike Jungmann, Alexander Ziller, Orhun Aksoy, Danylo Movchan, Rickmer Braren, Georgios Kaissis, Daniel Rueckert

Body fat volume and distribution can be a strong indication for a person's overall health and the risk for developing diseases like type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular diseases.

Autonomic Architecture for Big Data Performance Optimization

no code implementations17 Mar 2023 Mikhail Genkin, Frank Dehne, Anousheh Shahmirza, Pablo Navarro, Siyu Zhou

This paper presents KERMIT - the autonomic architecture for big data capable of automatically tuning Apache Spark and Hadoop on-line, and achieving performance results 30% faster than rule-of-thumb tuning by a human administrator and up to 92% as fast as the fastest possible tuning established by performing an exhaustive search of the tuning parameter space.

Local Repair of Neural Networks Using Optimization

no code implementations28 Sep 2021 Keyvan Majd, Siyu Zhou, Heni Ben Amor, Georgios Fainekos, Sriram Sankaranarayanan

In this paper, we propose a framework to repair a pre-trained feed-forward neural network (NN) to satisfy a set of properties.

Trees, Forests, Chickens, and Eggs: When and Why to Prune Trees in a Random Forest

no code implementations30 Mar 2021 Siyu Zhou, Lucas Mentch

Due to their long-standing reputation as excellent off-the-shelf predictors, random forests continue remain a go-to model of choice for applied statisticians and data scientists.

Getting Better from Worse: Augmented Bagging and a Cautionary Tale of Variable Importance

no code implementations7 Mar 2020 Lucas Mentch, Siyu Zhou

As the size, complexity, and availability of data continues to grow, scientists are increasingly relying upon black-box learning algorithms that can often provide accurate predictions with minimal a priori model specifications.

Clone Swarms: Learning to Predict and Control Multi-Robot Systems by Imitation

no code implementations5 Dec 2019 Siyu Zhou, Mariano Phielipp, Jorge A. Sefair, Sara I. Walker, Heni Ben Amor

In this paper, we propose SwarmNet -- a neural network architecture that can learn to predict and imitate the behavior of an observed swarm of agents in a centralized manner.

Randomization as Regularization: A Degrees of Freedom Explanation for Random Forest Success

1 code implementation1 Nov 2019 Lucas Mentch, Siyu Zhou

Random forests remain among the most popular off-the-shelf supervised machine learning tools with a well-established track record of predictive accuracy in both regression and classification settings.

Unrestricted Permutation forces Extrapolation: Variable Importance Requires at least One More Model, or There Is No Free Variable Importance

1 code implementation1 May 2019 Giles Hooker, Lucas Mentch, Siyu Zhou

This paper reviews and advocates against the use of permute-and-predict (PaP) methods for interpreting black box functions.

Personalized and Occupational-aware Age Progression by Generative Adversarial Networks

no code implementations26 Nov 2017 Siyu Zhou, Weiqiang Zhao, Jiashi Feng, Hanjiang Lai, Yan Pan, Jian Yin, Shuicheng Yan

Second, we propose a new occupational-aware adversarial face aging network, which learns human aging process under different occupations.

HashGAN:Attention-aware Deep Adversarial Hashing for Cross Modal Retrieval

no code implementations26 Nov 2017 Xi Zhang, Siyu Zhou, Jiashi Feng, Hanjiang Lai, Bo Li, Yan Pan, Jian Yin, Shuicheng Yan

The proposed new adversarial network, HashGAN, consists of three building blocks: 1) the feature learning module to obtain feature representations, 2) the generative attention module to generate an attention mask, which is used to obtain the attended (foreground) and the unattended (background) feature representations, 3) the discriminative hash coding module to learn hash functions that preserve the similarities between different modalities.
