Abstract: A method of continual learning in an artificial intelligence system through bi-level optimization includes providing a stored data sample of a current task and providing a neural network subdivided into two parts including a parameter part and a hyper-parameter part. The method further includes performing bi-level optimization by separately training the two parts of the neural network. The neural network has been trained, prior to the bi-level optimization, on data samples of previous tasks.

Abstract: A method for processing an input data matrix so as to provide co-clustering assignments of rows and columns of the input data matrix includes generating, from the input data matrix, a graph of rows in the data matrix and a graph of columns in the data matrix, determining an objective function for generating a compact representation of the input data matrix, and generating the compact representation of the input data matrix by performing alternating optimization of the objective function until a test compact representation that causes the objective function to converge is generated. The method additionally includes generating a new graph of rows and a new graph of columns from the compact representation of the input data matrix, and returning a connected component of the new graph of rows and a connected component of the new graph of columns as the co-clustering assignments of the rows and columns.

Abstract: A method for online learning from a data stream with an ensemble of meta-trees includes: observing a data instance from the data stream; for each of the meta-trees, replicating the data instance to generate a number of replicated data instances; for each of the meta-trees, updating meta-tree components using the number or replicated data instances; and inducing each of the meta-trees based on the data instance and the updated meta-tree components. Inducing each of the meta-trees includes employing inequality concentration bound to determine whether a split criterion is satisfied.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method can include providing a data set arranged into multiple nodes and assigning a random variable and a hyper-parameter to at least one pair of the multiple nodes. The hyper-parameter can define a current probability distribution of the random variable. The method can further include: causing the random variable to occupy a discrete state based on the current probability distribution; sampling a graph structure for the data set based on the discrete state; adjusting a weight of a prediction model based on the sampled graph structure; estimating a gradient of the hyper-parameter based on the sampled graph structure and the adjusted weight; adjusting the hyper-parameter based on the estimated gradient; resampling a graph structure for the data set based on the adjusted hyper-parameter; and assigning a final graph structure to the data set based on the resampled graph structure.

Abstract: An information interaction method, apparatus and system are provided. A sensitive operation pre-performing message is received from a terminal where a secondary account is located. The sensitive operation pre-performing message may carry a secondary account identifier. Based on the secondary account identifier and a pre-stored association relationship between a primary account identifier and the secondary account identifier, the primary account identifier corresponding to the secondary account identifier may be determined. Based on the determined primary account identifier, a sensitive operation verification request message may be sent to a terminal where the primary account is located. A verification result information may be received from the terminal where the primary account is located.
