Prediction-Powered Ranking of Large Language Models

1 code implementation27 Feb 2024 Ivi Chatzi, Eleni Straitouri, Suhas Thejaswi, Manuel Gomez Rodriguez

Our framework is computationally efficient, easy to use, and does not make any assumption about the distribution of human preferences nor about the degree of alignment between the pairwise comparisons by the humans and the strong large language model.

Counterfactual Inference of Second Opinions

1 code implementation16 Mar 2022 Nina L. Corvelo Benz, Manuel Gomez Rodriguez

This motivates the design of a set invariant Gumbel-Max structural causal model where the structure of the noise governing the sub-mechanisms underpinning the model depends on an intuitive notion of similarity between experts which can be estimated from data.

Improving Screening Processes via Calibrated Subset Selection

1 code implementation2 Feb 2022 Lequn Wang, Thorsten Joachims, Manuel Gomez Rodriguez

Many selection processes such as finding patients qualifying for a medical trial or retrieval pipelines in search engines consist of multiple stages, where an initial screening stage focuses the resources on shortlisting the most promising candidates.

Improving Expert Predictions with Conformal Prediction

1 code implementation28 Jan 2022 Eleni Straitouri, Lequn Wang, Nastaran Okati, Manuel Gomez Rodriguez

In this work, we develop an automated decision support system that, by design, does not require experts to understand when to trust the system to improve performance.

Counterfactual Temporal Point Processes

2 code implementations15 Nov 2021 Kimia Noorbakhsh, Manuel Gomez Rodriguez

This model satisfies a desirable counterfactual monotonicity condition, which is sufficient to identify counterfactual dynamics in the process of thinning.

Consequential Ranking Algorithms and Long-term Welfare

no code implementations13 May 2019 Behzad Tabibian, Vicenç Gómez, Abir De, Bernhard Schölkopf, Manuel Gomez Rodriguez

Can we design ranking models that understand the consequences of their proposed rankings and, more importantly, are able to avoid the undesirable ones?

Enhancing the Accuracy and Fairness of Human Decision Making

1 code implementation NeurIPS 2018 Isabel Valera, Adish Singla, Manuel Gomez Rodriguez

Societies often rely on human experts to take a wide variety of decisions affecting their members, from jail-or-release decisions taken by judges and stop-and-frisk decisions taken by police officers to accept-or-reject decisions taken by academics.

Teaching Multiple Concepts to a Forgetful Learner

no code implementations NeurIPS 2019 Anette Hunziker, Yuxin Chen, Oisin Mac Aodha, Manuel Gomez Rodriguez, Andreas Krause, Pietro Perona, Yisong Yue, Adish Singla

Our framework is both generic, allowing the design of teaching schedules for different memory models, and also interactive, allowing the teacher to adapt the schedule to the underlying forgetting mechanisms of the learner.

Fake News Detection in Social Networks via Crowd Signals

no code implementations24 Nov 2017 Sebastian Tschiatschek, Adish Singla, Manuel Gomez Rodriguez, Arpit Merchant, Andreas Krause

The main objective of our work is to minimize the spread of misinformation by stopping the propagation of fake news in the network.

From Parity to Preference-based Notions of Fairness in Classification

1 code implementation NeurIPS 2017 Muhammad Bilal Zafar, Isabel Valera, Manuel Gomez Rodriguez, Krishna P. Gummadi, Adrian Weller

The adoption of automated, data-driven decision making in an ever expanding range of applications has raised concerns about its potential unfairness towards certain social groups.

Cheshire: An Online Algorithm for Activity Maximization in Social Networks

no code implementations6 Mar 2017 Ali Zarezade, Abir De, Hamid Rabiee, Manuel Gomez Rodriguez

Can we design an algorithm that finds when to incentivize users to take actions to maximize the overall activity in a social network?

Fairness Beyond Disparate Treatment & Disparate Impact: Learning Classification without Disparate Mistreatment

3 code implementations26 Oct 2016 Muhammad Bilal Zafar, Isabel Valera, Manuel Gomez Rodriguez, Krishna P. Gummadi

To account for and avoid such unfairness, in this paper, we introduce a new notion of unfairness, disparate mistreatment, which is defined in terms of misclassification rates.

COEVOLVE: A Joint Point Process Model for Information Diffusion and Network Co-evolution

1 code implementation NeurIPS 2015 Mehrdad Farajtabar, Yichen Wang, Manuel Gomez Rodriguez, Shuang Li, Hongyuan Zha, Le Song

Information diffusion in online social networks is affected by the underlying network topology, but it also has the power to change it.

Shaping Social Activity by Incentivizing Users

no code implementations NeurIPS 2014 Mehrdad Farajtabar, Nan Du, Manuel Gomez Rodriguez, Isabel Valera, Hongyuan Zha, Le Song

Events in an online social network can be categorized roughly into endogenous events, where users just respond to the actions of their neighbors within the network, or exogenous events, where users take actions due to drives external to the network.

Scalable Influence Estimation in Continuous-Time Diffusion Networks
