Online Gradient Computation for Warping Gaussian Process Transformations

Warped Gaussian processes (GPs) handle non-Gaussian observations by mapping them into a latent standard GP via a parametric transformation called warping. Existing streaming variants, however, either optimize the warping parameters periodically or sacrifice analytical tractability for a higher model capacity. To bridge this gap, we show that the gradient of the instantaneous negative log-likelihood of a warped GP admits an exact recursive computation. Based on this result, we propose a novel online method for warped GPs that jointly updates the latent GP moments and optimizes the warping parameters.

Consistent Signal Reconstruction from Streaming Multivariate Time Series

Digitalizing real-world analog signals typically involves sampling in time and discretizing in amplitude. Subsequent signal reconstructions inevitably incur an error that depends on the amplitude resolution and the temporal density of the acquired samples. From an implementation viewpoint, consistent signal reconstruction methods have proven a profitable error-rate decay as the sampling rate increases. Despite that, these results are obtained under offline settings. Therefore, a research gap exists regarding methods for consistent signal reconstruction from data streams. Solving this problem is of great importance because such methods could run at a lower computational cost than the existing offline ones or be used under real-time requirements without losing the benefits of ensuring consistency. In this paper, we formalize for the first time the concept of consistent signal reconstruction from streaming time-series data. Then, we present a signal reconstruction method able to enforce consistency and also exploit the spatiotemporal dependencies of streaming multivariate time-series data to further reduce the signal reconstruction error. Our experiments show that our proposed method achieves a favorable error-rate decay with the sampling rate compared to a similar but non-consistent reconstruction.

An Online Multiple Kernel Parallelizable Learning Scheme

The performance of reproducing kernel Hilbert space-based methods is known to be sensitive to the choice of the reproducing kernel. Choosing an adequate reproducing kernel can be challenging and computationally demanding, especially in data-rich tasks without prior information about the solution domain. In this paper, we propose a learning scheme that scalably combines several single kernel-based online methods to reduce the kernel-selection bias. The proposed learning scheme applies to any task formulated as a regularized empirical risk minimization convex problem. More specifically, our learning scheme is based on a multi-kernel learning formulation that can be applied to widen any single-kernel solution space, thus increasing the possibility of finding higher-performance solutions. In addition, it is parallelizable, allowing for the distribution of the computational load across different computing units. We show experimentally that the proposed learning scheme outperforms the combined single-kernel online methods separately in terms of the cumulative regularized least squares cost metric.

A Trainable Approach to Zero-delay Smoothing Spline Interpolation

The task of reconstructing smooth signals from streamed data in the form of signal samples arises in various applications. This work addresses such a task subject to a zero-delay response; that is, the smooth signal must be reconstructed sequentially as soon as a data sample is available and without having access to subsequent data. State-of-the-art approaches solve this problem by interpolating consecutive data samples using splines. Here, each interpolation step yields a piece that ensures a smooth signal reconstruction while minimizing a cost metric, typically a weighted sum between the squared residual and a derivative-based measure of smoothness. As a result, a zero-delay interpolation is achieved in exchange for an almost certainly higher cumulative cost as compared to interpolating all data samples together. This paper presents a novel approach to further reduce this cumulative cost on average. First, we formulate a zero-delay smoothing spline interpolation problem from a sequential decision-making perspective, allowing us to model the future impact of each interpolated piece on the average cumulative cost. Then, an interpolation method is proposed to exploit the temporal dependencies between the streamed data samples. Our method is assisted by a recurrent neural network and accordingly trained to reduce the accumulated cost on average over a set of example data samples collected from the same signal source generating the signal to be reconstructed. Finally, we present extensive experimental results for synthetic and real data showing how our approach outperforms the abovementioned state-of-the-art.
