Abstract

Abstracts are not currently available in GtR for all funded research. This is normally because the abstract was not required at the time of proposal submission, but may be because it included sensitive information such as personal details.
 
Description We have developed a new methodology to achieve a deeper interpretability of deep networks. Specifically, using information theoretic measures, we can now visualize the information that is represented at each layer of a deep network. From this understanding, we can better estimate the information transformation function that are performed across layers. Furthermore, we have using Generational Autoencoders to compare the representations constructed on the hidden layers with those of several other models (i.e. classic ResNet DeepNetwork, an engineered generative model and an ideal observer model.
Exploitation Route Others users of deep networks might use our methodologies to better understand why deep networks fail to generalize--cf. adversarial testing.
