Abstract: A trained computer model includes a direct network and an indirect network. The indirect network generates expected weights or an expected weight distribution for the nodes and layers of the direct network. These expected characteristics may be used to regularize training of the direct network weights and encourage the direct network weights towards those expected, or predicted by the indirect network. Alternatively, the expected weight distribution may be used to probabilistically predict the output of the direct network according to the likelihood of different weights or weight sets provided by the expected weight distribution. The output may be generated by sampling weight sets from the distribution and evaluating the sampled weight sets.

Abstract: A machine learning model for reinforcement learning uses parameterized families of Markov decision processes (MDP) with latent variables. The system uses latent variables to improve ability of models to transfer knowledge and generalize to new tasks. Accordingly, trained machine learning based models are able to work in unseen environments or combinations of conditions/factors that the machine learning model was never trained on. For example, robots or self-driving vehicles based on the machine learning based models are robust to changing goals and are able to adapt to novel reward functions or tasks flexibly while being able to transfer knowledge about environments and agents to new tasks.

Abstract: A trained computer model includes a direct network and an indirect network. The indirect network generates a set of weights or a set of weight distributions for the nodes and layers of the direct network. The direct network includes units associated with unit codes representative of the unit's structural position in the direct network. Weight codes are determined for weights of the direct network based on unit codes associated with units connected by the weights. The indirect network generates the set of weights or set of weight distributions based on weight codes associated with weights of the direct network.

Abstract: Systems and methods for training models and using the models to detect events are provided. A networked system assembles one or more triplets using sensor data accessed from a plurality of user devices, the assembling including applying a weak label. The networked system autoencodes the one or more triplets based on a covariate to generate a disentangled embedding. A model is trained using the disentangled embedding, whereby the model is used at runtime to detect whether an event associated with the model is present. In particular, runtime sensor data from the real world is autoencoded to generate a runtime embedding, whereby the runtime sensor data comprising sensor data from at least one of a device of a user. The runtime embedding is comparted to one or more embeddings of the model, whereby a similarity in the comparing indicates the event associated with the model occurring in the real world.
