Przemysław Spurek (Uniwersytet Jagielloński) 

We propose a new generative model, Cramer-Wold Autoencoder (CWAE). Following WAE, we directly encourage normality of the latent space. Our paper uses also the recent idea from Sliced WAE (SWAE) model, which uses one-dimensional projections as a method of verifying closeness of two distributions. The crucial new ingredient is the introduction of a new (Cramer-Wold) metric in the space of densities, which replaces the Wasserstein metric used in SWAE. We show that the Cramer-Wold metric between Gaussian mixtures is given by a simple analytic formula, which results in the removal of sampling necessary to estimate the cost function in WAE and SWAE models.

As a consequence, while drastically simplifying the optimization procedure, CWAE produces samples of a matching perceptual quality to other SOTA models.

Marek Śmieja (Uniwersytet Jagielloński) 

We propose a general, theoretically justified mechanism for processing missing data by neural networks. Our idea is to replace typical neuron’s response in the first hidden layer by its expected value. This approach can be applied for various types of networks at minimal cost in their modification. Moreover, in contrast to recent approaches, it does not require complete data for training. Experimental results performed on different types of architectures show that our method gives better results than typical imputation strategies and other methods dedicated for incomplete data.
