New computational algorithms make it possible to build neural networks with many input nodes and many layers, and distinguish "deep learning" of these networks from previous work on artificial neural nets.
V ariational mutual information (MI) estimators are widely used in unsupervised representation learning methods such as contrastive predictive coding (CPC).
DNN ownership verification methods in the face of ambiguity attacks, which aim to cast doubts on the ownership verification by forging counterfeit watermarks.
