Learning rate adaptation is a popular topic in machine learning. Gradient Descent trains neural nerwork with a fixed learning rate. Learning rate adaptation is proposed to accelerate the training process through adjusting the step size in the training session. Famous works include Momentum, Adam and Hypergradient. Hypergradient is the most special one. Hypergradient achieved adaptation by calculating the derivative of learning rate with respect to cost function and utilizing gradient descent for learning rate. However, Hypergradient is still not perfect. In practice, Hypergradient fail to decrease training loss after learning rate adaptation with a large probability. Apart from that, evidence has been found that Hypergradient are not suitable for dealing with large datesets in the form of minibatch training. Most unfortunately, Hypergradient always fails to get a good accuracy on the validation dataset although it could reduce training loss to a very tiny value. To solve Hypergradient's problems, we propose a novel adaptation algorithm, where learning rate is parameter specific and internal structured. We conduct extensive experiments on multiple network models and datasets compared with various benchmark optimizers. It is shown that our algorithm can achieve faster and higher qualified convergence than those state-of-art optimizers.

Knowledge graph completion aims to predict the new links in given entities among the knowledge graph (KG). Most mainstream embedding methods focus on fact triplets contained in the given KG, however, ignoring the rich background information provided by logic rules driven from knowledge base implicitly. To solve this problem, in this paper, we propose a general framework, named EM-RBR(embedding and rule-based reasoning), capable of combining the advantages of reasoning based on rules and the state-of-the-art models of embedding. EM-RBR aims to utilize relational background knowledge contained in rules to conduct multi-relation reasoning link prediction rather than superficial vector triangle linkage in embedding models. By this way, we can explore relation between two entities in deeper context to achieve higher accuracy. In experiments, we demonstrate that EM-RBR achieves better performance compared with previous models on FB15k, WN18 and our new dataset FB15k-R, especially the new dataset where our model perform futher better than those state-of-the-arts. We make the implementation of EM-RBR available at https://github.com/1173710224/link-prediction-with-rule-based-reasoning.

In this demo, we present ConsciousControlFlow(CCF), a prototype system to demonstrate conscious Artificial Intelligence (AI). The system is based on the computational model for consciousness and the hierarchy of needs. CCF supports typical scenarios to show the behaviors and the mental activities of conscious AI. We demonstrate that CCF provides a useful tool for effective machine consciousness demonstration and human behavior study assistance., Comment: 10 pages, 5 figures

Machine learning algorithms have made remarkable achievements in the field of artificial intelligence. However, most machine learning algorithms are sensitive to the hyper-parameters. Manually optimizing the hyper-parameters is a common method of hyper-parameter tuning. However, it is costly and empirically dependent. Automatic hyper-parameter optimization (autoHPO) is favored due to its effectiveness. However, current autoHPO methods are usually only effective for a certain type of problems, and the time cost is high. In this paper, we propose an efficient automatic parameter optimization approach, which is based on the mapping from data to the corresponding hyper-parameters. To describe such mapping, we propose a sophisticated network structure. To obtain such mapping, we develop effective network constrution algorithms. We also design strategy to optimize the result futher during the application of the mapping. Extensive experimental results demonstrate that the proposed approaches outperform the state-of-the-art apporaches significantly.
