Neural Augmentation with Applications in MRI Image Reconstruction and Wireless Communication
Deep learning has been amazingly successful in solving AI tasks where the domain is well defined and a lot of data is available for that domain. Examples include speech recognition, (medical) image analysis, automatic translation and so on. However, increasingly researchers are worried about 'out-of-domain generalization' where a model needs to perform well on data that the learning algorithm has never seen before. Traditional engineering approaches, which include a large amount of prior knowledge and model the physical data generation process often do better in this regime. Therefore, a natural question to ask is how to combine these two approaches. In this talk we introduce 'neural augmentation', which builds a black box neural network around an interpretable graphical (generative) model of the data. The model is trained end-to-end by unrolling the inference procedure in the graphical model (given by belief propagation), augmenting it with a factor-graph neural network, and backpropagating through the whole recurrent architecture so defined. We illustrate these ideas on MRI image reconstruction, LDPC error correction decoding with bursty channels and on massive MIMO detection in wireless communication.
