This paper develops the graph analogues of three prominent explainability methods for convolutional neural networks: contrastive gradient-based (CG) saliency maps, Class Activation Mapping (CAM), and Excitation Back-Propagation (EB) and their variants, gradient-weighted CAM (Grad-CAM) and contrastive EB (c-EB).

The generalized Radon transform is utilized to define a new family of distances for probability measures, which are called generalized sliced-Wasserstein (GSW) distances, and it is shown that, similar to the SW distance, the GSW distance can be extended to a maximum GSW (max- GSW) distance.

- 26 June 2019
The concept of Universal Litmus Patterns (ULPs) is introduced, which enable one to reveal backdoor attacks by feeding these universal patterns to the network and analyzing the output (i.e., classifying the network as `clean' or `corrupted').

This work proposes the novel use of the recently proposed unpaired image-to-image translation framework to constrain the features extracted by the backbone encoder network, and applies it to domain adaptation between MNIST, USPS, and SVHN datasets, and Amazon, Webcam and DSLR Office datasets in classification tasks, and also between GTA5 and Cityscapes datasets for a segmentation task.

Sliced-Wasserstein Autoencoder: An Embarrassingly Simple Generative Model
- S. Kolouri, Charles E. Martin, G. Rohde
- Computer ScienceArXiv
- 5 April 2018
Sliced-Wasserstein Autoencoders (SWAE) are introduced, which are generative models that enable one to shape the distribution of the latent space into any samplable probability distribution without the need for training an adversarial network or defining a closed-form for the distribution.

- 15 November 2017
This work proposes an alternative formulation for estimating the GMM parameters using the sliced Wasserstein distance, which gives rise to a new algorithm that can estimate high-dimensional data distributions more faithfully than the EM algorithm.
The Radon Cumulative Distribution Transform and Its Application to Image Classification
- S. Kolouri, Se Rim Park, G. Rohde
- MathematicsIEEE Transactions on Image Processing
- 10 November 2015
This work describes a nonlinear, invertible, low-level image processing transform based on combining the well-known Radon transform for image data, and the 1D cumulative distribution transform proposed earlier and shows that it can often render certain problems linearly separable in a transform space.
