Virtual adversarial training: a regularization method for supervised and semi-supervised learning

T Miyato, S Maeda, M Koyama… - IEEE transactions on …, 2018 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
We propose a new regularization method based on virtual adversarial loss: a new measure
of local smoothness of the conditional label distribution given input. Virtual adversarial loss …

From word models to world models: Translating from natural language to the probabilistic language of thought

L Wong, G Grand, AK Lew, ND Goodman… - arXiv preprint arXiv …, 2023 - arxiv.org
