On computable learning of continuous features

no code implementations24 Nov 2021 Nathanael Ackerman, Julian Asilis, Jieqi Di, Cameron Freer, Jean-Baptiste Tristan

We introduce definitions of computable PAC learning for binary classification over computable metric spaces.

Conjugate Energy-Based Models

no code implementations ICLR Workshop EBM 2021 Hao Wu, Babak Esmaeili, Michael Wick, Jean-Baptiste Tristan, Jan-Willem van de Meent

In this paper, we propose conjugate energy-based models (CEBMs), a new class of energy-based models that define a joint density over data and latent variables.

Detecting and Exorcising Statistical Demons from Language Models with Anti-Models of Negative Data

no code implementations22 Oct 2020 Michael L. Wick, Kate Silverstein, Jean-Baptiste Tristan, Adam Pocock, Mark Johnson

Indeed, self-supervised language models trained on "positive" examples of English text generalize in desirable ways to many natural language tasks.

Verification of ML Systems via Reparameterization

no code implementations14 Jul 2020 Jean-Baptiste Tristan, Joseph Tassarotti, Koundinya Vajjha, Michael L. Wick, Anindya Banerjee

Proof assistants can be used to formally verify machine learning systems by constructing machine checked proofs of correctness that rule out such bugs.

Rate-Regularization and Generalization in VAEs

no code implementations11 Nov 2019 Alican Bozkurt, Babak Esmaeili, Jean-Baptiste Tristan, Dana H. Brooks, Jennifer G. Dy, Jan-Willem van de Meent

Variational autoencoders optimize an objective that combines a reconstruction loss (the distortion) and a KL term (the rate).

A Formal Proof of PAC Learnability for Decision Stumps

no code implementations1 Nov 2019 Joseph Tassarotti, Koundinya Vajjha, Anindya Banerjee, Jean-Baptiste Tristan

We present a formal proof in Lean of probably approximately correct (PAC) learnability of the concept class of decision stumps.

Scaling Hierarchical Coreference with Homomorphic Compression

no code implementations AKBC 2019 Michael Wick, Swetasudha Panda, Joseph Tassarotti, Jean-Baptiste Tristan

In this case, we need the representation to be a homomorphism so that the hash of unions and differences of sets can be computed directly from the hashes of operands.

Sketching for Latent Dirichlet-Categorical Models

no code implementations2 Oct 2018 Joseph Tassarotti, Jean-Baptiste Tristan, Michael Wick

We examine a related problem in which the parameters of a Bayesian model are very large and expensive to store in memory, and propose more compact representations of parameter values that can be used during inference.

Gradient-based Inference for Networks with Output Constraints

no code implementations26 Jul 2017 Jay Yoon Lee, Sanket Vaibhav Mehta, Michael Wick, Jean-Baptiste Tristan, Jaime Carbonell

Practitioners apply neural networks to increasingly complex problems in natural language processing, such as syntactic parsing and semantic role labeling that have rich output structures.

Augur: Data-Parallel Probabilistic Modeling

no code implementations NeurIPS 2014 Jean-Baptiste Tristan, Daniel Huang, Joseph Tassarotti, Adam C. Pocock, Stephen Green, Guy L. Steele

We show that the compiler can generate data-parallel inference code scalable to thousands of GPU cores by making use of the conditional independence relationships in the Bayesian network.

Augur: a Modeling Language for Data-Parallel Probabilistic Inference

no code implementations12 Dec 2013 Jean-Baptiste Tristan, Daniel Huang, Joseph Tassarotti, Adam Pocock, Stephen J. Green, Guy L. Steele Jr

In this paper, we present a probabilistic programming language and compiler for Bayesian networks designed to make effective use of data-parallel architectures such as GPUs.
