Learning Session<\/h3>\n<h4>Abstract<\/h4>\n<p>Today, thousands of scientists and engineers are applying machine learning to an extraordinarily broad range of domains, and over the last five decades, researchers have created literally thousands of machine learning algorithms. Traditionally an engineer wanting to solve a problem using machine learning must choose one or more of these algorithms to try, and their choice is often constrained by their familiarity with an algorithm, or by the availability of software implementations. Chris will talk about \u2018model-based machine learning\u2019, a new approach in which a custom solution is formulated for each new application. He will show how probabilistic graphical models, coupled with efficient inference algorithms, provide a flexible foundation for model-based machine learning, and he\u2019ll describe several large-scale commercial applications of this framework.<\/p>\n<h4>Biography<\/h4>\n<p>Christopher Bishop is a Microsoft Technical Fellow and Director of the Microsoft Research Lab in Cambridge, UK.<\/p>\n<p>He is also Professor of Computer Science at the University of Edinburgh, and a Fellow of Darwin College, Cambridge. In 2004, he was elected Fellow of the Royal Academy of Engineering, in 2007 he was elected Fellow of the Royal Society of Edinburgh, and in 2017 he was elected Fellow of the Royal Society.<\/p>\n<p>At Microsoft Research, Chris oversees a world-leading portfolio of industrial research and development, with a strong focus on machine learning and AI, and creating breakthrough technologies in cloud infrastructure, security, workplace productivity, computational biology, and healthcare.<\/p>\n<p>Chris obtained a BA in Physics from Oxford, and a PhD in Theoretical Physics from the University of Edinburgh, with a thesis on quantum field theory. From there, he developed an interest in pattern recognition, and became Head of the Applied Neurocomputing Centre at AEA Technology. He was subsequently elected to a Chair in the Department of Computer Science and Applied Mathematics at Aston University, where he set up and led the Neural Computing Research Group.<\/p>\n<p>Chris is the author of two highly cited and widely adopted machine learning text books: Neural Networks for Pattern Recognition (1995) and Pattern Recognition and Machine Learning (2006). He has also worked on a broad range of applications of machine learning in domains ranging from computer vision to healthcare. Chris is a keen advocate of public engagement in science, and in 2008 he delivered the prestigious Royal Institution Christmas Lectures, established in 1825 by Michael Faraday, and broadcast on national television. <span id=\"label-external-link\" class=\"sr-only\" aria-hidden=\"true\">Opens in a new tab<\/span><\/p>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/li>\n\t\t<li class=\"m-0\" data-wp-context='{\"id\":\"accordion-content-1088\"}' data-wp-init=\"callbacks.init\">\n\t\t<div class=\"accordion-header\">\n\t\t\t<button\n\t\t\t\taria-controls=\"accordion-content-1088\"\n\t\t\t\tclass=\"btn btn-collapse\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-wp-bind--aria-expanded=\"state.isExpanded\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-wp-on--click=\"actions.onClick\"\n\t\t\t\tid=\"accordion-button-1087\"\n\t\t\t\ttype=\"button\"\n\t\t\t>\n\t\t\t\tJasmin Fisher | Microsoft Research\t\t\t<\/button>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div\n\t\t\taria-labelledby=\"accordion-button-1087\"\n\t\t\tclass=\"msr-accordion__content\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-bind--inert=\"!state.isExpanded\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-run=\"callbacks.run\"\n\t\t\tid=\"accordion-content-1088\"\n\t\t>\n\t\t\t<div class=\"msr-accordion__body\">\n\t\t\t\t<h3><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-full wp-image-479304\" src=\"https:\/\/newed.any0.dpdns.org\/en-us\/research\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/Dr.-Jasmin-Fisher.jpg\" alt=\"Portrait of Jasmin Fisher\" width=\"100\" height=\"132\" \/>Predicting Cancer Response using In Silico Mechanistic Models<\/h3>\n<h4>Abstract<\/h4>\n<\/p>\n<p>Cancer is a highly complex cellular state where mutations impact a multitude of signalling pathways operating in different cell types. In order to understand and fight cancer, it must be viewed as a system, rather than as a set of independent cellular activities. In this talk, I will discuss some of the progress made towards achieving such a system-level understanding using in silico mechanistic models. I will describe our studies to better understand aberrant signaling programs in leukemia, breast cancer and glioblastoma; and to identify novel combination treatments to overcome drug resistance. These computational cancer programs have been shown to improve our understanding of the mechanistic rules that drive cancers and with the help of advanced machine learning and AI will pave the way for better detection, diagnosis and personalised treatment of patients.<\/p>\n<h4>Biography<\/h4>\n<p>Jasmin Fisher is a Principal Researcher at Microsoft Research Cambridge in the <a href=\"https:\/\/newed.any0.dpdns.org\/en-us\/research\/group\/programming-principles-and-tools\/\">Programming Principles & Tools<\/a> group.

Whether estimating the parameters of a convolutional neural network, computing structure and motion from image collections, tracking objects in video, computing low-dimensional representations of datasets, estimating parameters for an inference model such as Markov random fields, or extracting shape spaces such as active appearance models, it almost always boils down to minimizing an objective containing some parameters of interest as well as some latent or nuisance parameters. This session will describe several tools and techniques for solving such optimization problems. In particular, I will present some results on some common optimization problems in computer vision and machine learning, for example, matrix completion, 3D structure from motion, and curve and surface fitting with nonconvex robust losses, all of which are of the form<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-479298 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/newed.any0.dpdns.org\/en-us\/research\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/formula-300x128.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"128\" srcset=\"https:\/\/newed.any0.dpdns.org\/en-us\/research\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/formula-300x128.jpg 300w, https:\/\/newed.any0.dpdns.org\/en-us\/research\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/formula-768x328.jpg 768w, https:\/\/newed.any0.dpdns.org\/en-us\/research\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/formula.jpg 947w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>I show how two mutually contradictory strategies, namely variable projection (aka VarPro) and simultaneous joint optimization (aka \u201cLifting\u201d), interact in these problems.

After two years in industry, he spent seven years as a lecturer at University College London, and nine years as a professor at Glasgow University, before moving to Microsoft Research in 1998. His main research interest is in functional programming languages, their implementation, and their application. He has led a succession of research projects focused around the design and implementation of production-quality functional-language systems for both uniprocessors and parallel machines. He was a key contributor to the design of the now-standard functional language Haskell, and is the lead designer of the widely used Glasgow Haskell Compiler (GHC). He has written two textbooks about the implementation of functional languages. More generally, he is interested in language design, rich type systems, software component architectures, compiler technology, code generation, runtime systems, virtual machines, garbage collection, and more. He is particularly motivated by direct use of principled theory to practical language design and implementation-that\u2019s one reason he loves functional programming so much.

In this talk, I explore the threat model space of ML algorithms, and systematically explore the vulnerabilities resulting from the poor generalization of ML models when they are presented with inputs manipulated by adversaries. This characterization of the threat space prompts an investigation of defenses that exploit the lack of reliable confidence estimates for predictions made. In particular, we introduce a promising new approach to defensive measures tailored to the structure of deep learning.

Existing models suffer from two kinds of problems. Statistical models that are driven by theory\/hypotheses are easy to apply and interpret but they make many assumptions and often have inferior predictive accuracy. Machine learning models can be crafted to the data and often have superior predictive accuracy but they are often hard to interpret and must be crafted for each disease \u2026 and there are a lot of diseases. I will discuss a suite of new methods that is able to make machine learning itself do both the crafting and interpreting. For medicine, this is a complicated problem because missing data must be imputed, relevant features\/covariates must be selected, and the most appropriate classifier(s) must be chosen. Moreover, there is no one \u201cbest\u201d imputation algorithm or feature processing algorithm or classification algorithm; some imputation algorithms will work better with a particular feature processing algorithm and a particular classifier in a particular setting. To deal with these complications, we need an entire pipeline. Because there are many pipelines we need a machine learning method for this purpose, and this is exactly what AutoPrognosis is: an automated process for creating a particular pipeline for each particular setting. Using a variety of clinical datasets (from cardiovascular disease to cystic fibrosis and from breast cancer to dementia) I show that AutoPrognosis achieves performance that is significantly superior to existing clinical approaches and statistical and machine learning methods.<\/p>\n<h4>Biography<\/h4>\n<p>Professor van der Schaar is MAN Professor at the University of Oxford and Turing Faculty Fellow of The Alan Turing Institute, where she leads the effort on Machine Learning for Medicine.

Learning Session<\/h3>\n<h4>Abstract<\/h4>\n<p>Today, thousands of scientists and engineers are applying machine learning to an extraordinarily broad range of domains, and over the last five decades, researchers have created literally thousands of machine learning algorithms. Traditionally an engineer wanting to solve a problem using machine learning must choose one or more of these algorithms to try, and their choice is often constrained by their familiarity with an algorithm, or by the availability of software implementations. Chris will talk about \u2018model-based machine learning\u2019, a new approach in which a custom solution is formulated for each new application. He will show how probabilistic graphical models, coupled with efficient inference algorithms, provide a flexible foundation for model-based machine learning, and he\u2019ll describe several large-scale commercial applications of this framework.<\/p>\n<h4>Biography<\/h4>\n<p>Christopher Bishop is a Microsoft Technical Fellow and Director of the Microsoft Research Lab in Cambridge, UK.<\/p>\n<p>He is also Professor of Computer Science at the University of Edinburgh, and a Fellow of Darwin College, Cambridge. In 2004, he was elected Fellow of the Royal Academy of Engineering, in 2007 he was elected Fellow of the Royal Society of Edinburgh, and in 2017 he was elected Fellow of the Royal Society.<\/p>\n<p>At Microsoft Research, Chris oversees a world-leading portfolio of industrial research and development, with a strong focus on machine learning and AI, and creating breakthrough technologies in cloud infrastructure, security, workplace productivity, computational biology, and healthcare.<\/p>\n<p>Chris obtained a BA in Physics from Oxford, and a PhD in Theoretical Physics from the University of Edinburgh, with a thesis on quantum field theory. From there, he developed an interest in pattern recognition, and became Head of the Applied Neurocomputing Centre at AEA Technology. He was subsequently elected to a Chair in the Department of Computer Science and Applied Mathematics at Aston University, where he set up and led the Neural Computing Research Group.<\/p>\n<p>Chris is the author of two highly cited and widely adopted machine learning text books: Neural Networks for Pattern Recognition (1995) and Pattern Recognition and Machine Learning (2006). He has also worked on a broad range of applications of machine learning in domains ranging from computer vision to healthcare. Chris is a keen advocate of public engagement in science, and in 2008 he delivered the prestigious Royal Institution Christmas Lectures, established in 1825 by Michael Faraday, and broadcast on national television. <span id=\"label-external-link\" class=\"sr-only\" aria-hidden=\"true\">Opens in a new tab<\/span><\/p>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/li>\n\t\t<li class=\"m-0\" data-wp-context='{\"id\":\"accordion-content-1088\"}' data-wp-init=\"callbacks.init\">\n\t\t<div class=\"accordion-header\">\n\t\t\t<button\n\t\t\t\taria-controls=\"accordion-content-1088\"\n\t\t\t\tclass=\"btn btn-collapse\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-wp-bind--aria-expanded=\"state.isExpanded\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-wp-on--click=\"actions.onClick\"\n\t\t\t\tid=\"accordion-button-1087\"\n\t\t\t\ttype=\"button\"\n\t\t\t>\n\t\t\t\tJasmin Fisher | Microsoft Research\t\t\t<\/button>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div\n\t\t\taria-labelledby=\"accordion-button-1087\"\n\t\t\tclass=\"msr-accordion__content\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-bind--inert=\"!state.isExpanded\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-run=\"callbacks.run\"\n\t\t\tid=\"accordion-content-1088\"\n\t\t>\n\t\t\t<div class=\"msr-accordion__body\">\n\t\t\t\t<h3><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-full wp-image-479304\" src=\"https:\/\/newed.any0.dpdns.org\/en-us\/research\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/Dr.-Jasmin-Fisher.jpg\" alt=\"Portrait of Jasmin Fisher\" width=\"100\" height=\"132\" \/>Predicting Cancer Response using In Silico Mechanistic Models<\/h3>\n<h4>Abstract<\/h4>\n<\/p>\n<p>Cancer is a highly complex cellular state where mutations impact a multitude of signalling pathways operating in different cell types. In order to understand and fight cancer, it must be viewed as a system, rather than as a set of independent cellular activities. In this talk, I will discuss some of the progress made towards achieving such a system-level understanding using in silico mechanistic models. I will describe our studies to better understand aberrant signaling programs in leukemia, breast cancer and glioblastoma; and to identify novel combination treatments to overcome drug resistance. These computational cancer programs have been shown to improve our understanding of the mechanistic rules that drive cancers and with the help of advanced machine learning and AI will pave the way for better detection, diagnosis and personalised treatment of patients.<\/p>\n<h4>Biography<\/h4>\n<p>Jasmin Fisher is a Principal Researcher at Microsoft Research Cambridge in the <a href=\"https:\/\/newed.any0.dpdns.org\/en-us\/research\/group\/programming-principles-and-tools\/\">Programming Principles &amp; Tools<\/a> group.

Whether estimating the parameters of a convolutional neural network, computing structure and motion from image collections, tracking objects in video, computing low-dimensional representations of datasets, estimating parameters for an inference model such as Markov random fields, or extracting shape spaces such as active appearance models, it almost always boils down to minimizing an objective containing some parameters of interest as well as some latent or nuisance parameters. This session will describe several tools and techniques for solving such optimization problems. In particular, I will present some results on some common optimization problems in computer vision and machine learning, for example, matrix completion, 3D structure from motion, and curve and surface fitting with nonconvex robust losses, all of which are of the form<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-479298 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/newed.any0.dpdns.org\/en-us\/research\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/formula-300x128.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"128\" srcset=\"https:\/\/newed.any0.dpdns.org\/en-us\/research\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/formula-300x128.jpg 300w, https:\/\/newed.any0.dpdns.org\/en-us\/research\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/formula-768x328.jpg 768w, https:\/\/newed.any0.dpdns.org\/en-us\/research\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/formula.jpg 947w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>I show how two mutually contradictory strategies, namely variable projection (aka VarPro) and simultaneous joint optimization (aka \u201cLifting\u201d), interact in these problems.

After two years in industry, he spent seven years as a lecturer at University College London, and nine years as a professor at Glasgow University, before moving to Microsoft Research in 1998. His main research interest is in functional programming languages, their implementation, and their application. He has led a succession of research projects focused around the design and implementation of production-quality functional-language systems for both uniprocessors and parallel machines. He was a key contributor to the design of the now-standard functional language Haskell, and is the lead designer of the widely used Glasgow Haskell Compiler (GHC). He has written two textbooks about the implementation of functional languages. More generally, he is interested in language design, rich type systems, software component architectures, compiler technology, code generation, runtime systems, virtual machines, garbage collection, and more. He is particularly motivated by direct use of principled theory to practical language design and implementation-that\u2019s one reason he loves functional programming so much.

In this talk, I explore the threat model space of ML algorithms, and systematically explore the vulnerabilities resulting from the poor generalization of ML models when they are presented with inputs manipulated by adversaries. This characterization of the threat space prompts an investigation of defenses that exploit the lack of reliable confidence estimates for predictions made.

Existing models suffer from two kinds of problems. Statistical models that are driven by theory\/hypotheses are easy to apply and interpret but they make many assumptions and often have inferior predictive accuracy. Machine learning models can be crafted to the data and often have superior predictive accuracy but they are often hard to interpret and must be crafted for each disease \u2026 and there are a lot of diseases. I will discuss a suite of new methods that is able to make machine learning itself do both the crafting and interpreting. For medicine, this is a complicated problem because missing data must be imputed, relevant features\/covariates must be selected, and the most appropriate classifier(s) must be chosen. Moreover, there is no one \u201cbest\u201d imputation algorithm or feature processing algorithm or classification algorithm; some imputation algorithms will work better with a particular feature processing algorithm and a particular classifier in a particular setting. To deal with these complications, we need an entire pipeline. Because there are many pipelines we need a machine learning method for this purpose, and this is exactly what AutoPrognosis is: an automated process for creating a particular pipeline for each particular setting. Using a variety of clinical datasets (from cardiovascular disease to cystic fibrosis and from breast cancer to dementia) I show that AutoPrognosis achieves performance that is significantly superior to existing clinical approaches and statistical and machine learning methods.<\/p>\n<h4>Biography<\/h4>\n<p>Professor van der Schaar is MAN Professor at the University of Oxford and Turing Faculty Fellow of The Alan Turing Institute, where she leads the effort on Machine Learning for Medicine.

range of domains, and over the last five decades, researchers have created literally thousands of machine learning algorithms. Traditionally an engineer wanting to solve a problem using machine learning must choose one or more of these algorithms to try, and their choice is often constrained by their familiarity with an algorithm, or by the availability of software implementations. Chris will talk about \u2018model-based machine learning\u2019, a new approach in which a custom solution is formulated for each new application. He will show how probabilistic graphical models, coupled with efficient inference algorithms, provide a flexible foundation for model-based machine learning, and he\u2019ll describe several large-scale commercial applications of this framework.\r\n<h4>Biography<\/h4>\r\nChristopher Bishop is a Microsoft Technical Fellow and Director of the Microsoft Research Lab in Cambridge, UK.\r\n\r\nHe is also Professor of Computer Science at the University of Edinburgh, and a Fellow of Darwin College, Cambridge. In 2004, he was elected Fellow of the Royal Academy of Engineering, in 2007 he was elected Fellow of the Royal Society of Edinburgh, and in 2017 he was elected Fellow of the Royal Society.\r\n\r\nAt Microsoft Research, Chris oversees a world-leading portfolio of industrial research and development, with a strong focus on machine learning and AI, and creating breakthrough technologies in cloud infrastructure, security, workplace productivity, computational biology, and healthcare.\r\n\r\nChris obtained a BA in Physics from Oxford, and a PhD in Theoretical Physics from the University of Edinburgh, with a thesis on quantum field theory. From there, he developed an interest in pattern recognition, and became Head of the Applied Neurocomputing Centre at AEA Technology. He was subsequently elected to a Chair in the Department of Computer Science and Applied Mathematics at Aston University, where he set up and led the Neural Computing Research Group.\r\n\r\nChris is the author of two highly cited and widely adopted machine learning text books: Neural Networks for Pattern Recognition (1995) and Pattern Recognition and Machine Learning (2006). He has also worked on a broad range of applications of machine learning in domains ranging from computer vision to healthcare. Chris is a keen advocate of public engagement in science, and in 2008 he delivered the prestigious Royal Institution Christmas Lectures, established in 1825 by Michael Faraday, and broadcast on national television.

In order to understand and fight cancer, it must be viewed as a system, rather than as a set of independent cellular activities. In this talk, I will discuss some of the progress made towards achieving such a system-level understanding using in silico mechanistic models. I will describe our studies to better understand aberrant signaling programs in leukemia, breast cancer and glioblastoma; and to identify novel combination treatments to overcome drug resistance. These computational cancer programs have been shown to improve our understanding of the mechanistic rules that drive cancers and with the help of advanced machine learning and AI will pave the way for better detection, diagnosis and personalised treatment of patients.\r\n<h4>Biography<\/h4>\r\nJasmin Fisher is a Principal Researcher at Microsoft Research Cambridge in the <a href=\"https:\/\/newed.any0.dpdns.org\/en-us\/research\/group\/programming-principles-and-tools\/\">Programming Principles &amp; Tools<\/a> group. She is also an Associate Professor of Systems Biology in the Department of Biochemistry at the University of Cambridge. She is a member of the Cancer Research UK Cambridge Centre, Cambridge Systems Biology Centre and the Wellcome Trust-MRC Cambridge Stem Cell Institute. In 2016 she was elected Fellow of Trinity Hall, Cambridge. In 2017 Jasmin was named one of the Top Outstanding Female Leaders in the UK Healthcare by BioBeat. In 2018 she was elected Fellow of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rsb.org.uk\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Royal Society of Biology<\/a>.\r\n\r\nJasmin received her Ph.D. in Neuroimmunology from the Weizmann Institute of Science in 2003. She then started her work on the application of formal methods to biology as a postdoctoral fellow in the Department of Computer Science at the Weizmann Institute, and then continued to work on the development of novel formalisms and tools that are specifically-tailored for modelling biological processes in the School of Computer Science at the EPFL in Switzerland. In 2007, Jasmin joined the Microsoft Research Lab in Cambridge. In 2009, she was also appointed a Research Group Leader in the University of Cambridge.\r\n\r\nJasmin has devoted her career to develop methods for Executable Biology; her work has inspired the design of many new biological studies. She is a pioneer in using formal verification methods to analyse mechanistic models of cellular processes and disease.

Whether estimating the parameters of a convolutional neural network, computing structure and motion from image collections, tracking objects in video, computing low-dimensional representations of datasets, estimating parameters for an inference model such as Markov random fields, or extracting shape spaces such as active appearance models, it almost always boils down to minimizing an objective containing some parameters of interest as well as some latent or nuisance parameters. This session will describe several tools and techniques for solving such optimization problems. In particular, I will present some results on some common optimization problems in computer vision and machine learning, for example, matrix completion, 3D structure from motion, and curve and surface fitting with nonconvex robust losses, all of which are of the form\r\n\r\n<img class=\"size-medium wp-image-479298 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/newed.any0.dpdns.org\/en-us\/research\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/formula-300x128.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"128\" \/>\r\n\r\nI show how two mutually contradictory strategies, namely variable projection (aka VarPro) and simultaneous joint optimization (aka \u201cLifting\u201d), interact in these problems. Choosing the right strategy can yield startling improvements in real-world convergence rate or basin of convergence.\r\n<h4>Biography<\/h4>\r\nAndrew Fitzgibbon is a scientist with HoloLens at Microsoft, Cambridge, UK.

His main research interest is in functional programming languages, their implementation, and their application. He has led a succession of research projects focused around the design and implementation of production-quality functional-language systems for both uniprocessors and parallel machines. He was a key contributor to the design of the now-standard functional language Haskell, and is the lead designer of the widely used Glasgow Haskell Compiler (GHC). He has written two textbooks about the implementation of functional languages. More generally, he is interested in language design, rich type systems, software component architectures, compiler technology, code generation, runtime systems, virtual machines, garbage collection, and more. He is particularly motivated by direct use of principled theory to practical language design and implementation-that\u2019s one reason he loves functional programming so much. He is also keen to apply ideas from advanced programming languages to mainstream settings.\r\n[\/panel]\r\n\r\n[panel header=\"Arthur Juliani | Unity Technologies\"]\r\n<img class=\"alignright size-full wp-image-484656\" src=\"https:\/\/newed.any0.dpdns.org\/en-us\/research\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Arthur_100x132.png\" alt=\"Portrait of Arthur Juliani\" width=\"100\" height=\"132\" \/>\r\n<h3>Unity ML-Agents: A flexible platform for Deep RL research<\/h3>\r\n<a href=\"https:\/\/newed.any0.dpdns.org\/en-us\/research\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/FinalAJulianiMSR_2018.pdf\">View the slides<\/a>\r\n<h4>Abstract<\/h4>\r\nUnity ML-Agents is an open source toolkit that enables machine learning developers and researchers to train agents in realistic, complex 3D environments with decreased technical barriers.

In this talk, I explore the threat model space of ML algorithms, and systematically explore the vulnerabilities resulting from the poor generalization of ML models when they are presented with inputs manipulated by adversaries. This characterization of the threat space prompts an investigation of defenses that exploit the lack of reliable confidence estimates for predictions made. In particular, we introduce a promising new approach to defensive measures tailored to the structure of deep learning. Through this research, we expose connections between the resilience of ML to adversaries, model interpretability, and training data privacy.\r\n<h4>Biography<\/h4>\r\nNicolas Papernot earned his PhD in Computer Science and Engineering working with Professor Patrick McDaniel at the Pennsylvania State University.

Existing models suffer from two kinds of problems. Statistical models that are driven by theory\/hypotheses are easy to apply and interpret but they make many assumptions and often have inferior predictive accuracy. Machine learning models can be crafted to the data and often have superior predictive accuracy but they are often hard to interpret and must be crafted for each disease \u2026 and there are a lot of diseases. I will discuss a suite of new methods that is able to make machine learning itself do both the crafting and interpreting. For medicine, this is a complicated problem because missing data must be imputed, relevant features\/covariates must be selected, and the most appropriate classifier(s) must be chosen. Moreover, there is no one \u201cbest\u201d imputation algorithm or feature processing algorithm or classification algorithm; some imputation algorithms will work better with a particular feature processing algorithm and a particular classifier in a particular setting. To deal with these complications, we need an entire pipeline. Because there are many pipelines we need a machine learning method for this purpose, and this is exactly what AutoPrognosis is: an automated process for creating a particular pipeline for each particular setting. Using a variety of clinical datasets (from cardiovascular disease to cystic fibrosis and from breast cancer to dementia) I show that AutoPrognosis achieves performance that is significantly superior to existing clinical approaches and statistical and machine learning methods.\r\n<h4>Biography<\/h4>\r\nProfessor van der Schaar is MAN Professor at the University of Oxford and Turing Faculty Fellow of The Alan Turing Institute, where she leads the effort on Machine Learning for Medicine.
