Predicting Real Estate Prices Using Deep Learning Regression Models On Socio Spatial Data, Gentle Engworo

Graduate Theses/Dissertations

ABSTRACT

Cities keep their own kind of ledger. Every block, bus stop, corner store, and year that slips by leaves a small entry about what homes are worth. That ledger is what we call socio-spatial data: simple facts about what a home is (its age), where it sits (latitude/longitude), how easy it is to get around (distance to the nearest MRT station), what’s nearby (number of convenience stores), and when it sold (transaction date). This thesis asks a practical question in that everyday language: given these common clues, can we predict home prices more accurately and explain why? Using 414 …

Uniform Convergence Of Deep Neural Networks With Lipschitz Continuous Activation Functions And Variable Widths, Yuesheng Xu, Haizhang Zhang

Mathematics & Statistics Faculty Publications

We consider deep neural networks (DNNs) with a Lipschitz continuous activation function and with weight matrices of variable widths. We establish a uniform convergence analysis framework in which sufficient conditions on weight matrices and bias vectors together with the Lipschitz constant are provided to ensure uniform convergence of DNNs to a meaningful function as the number of their layers tends to infinity. In the framework, special results on uniform convergence of DNNs with a fixed width, bounded widths and unbounded widths are presented. In particular, as convolutional neural networks are special DNNs with weight matrices of increasing widths, we put …
