IGANN Sparse: Bridging Sparsity and Interpretability with Non-linear Insight

1 code implementation17 Mar 2024 Theodor Stoecker, Nico Hambauer, Patrick Zschech, Mathias Kraus

In this paper, we propose IGANN Sparse, a novel machine learning model from the family of generalized additive models, which promotes sparsity through a non-linear feature selection process during training.

To transition to a green economy, environmental claims made by companies must be reliable, comparable, and verifiable.

Towards Climate Awareness in NLP Research

1 code implementation10 May 2022 Daniel Hershcovich, Nicolas Webersinke, Mathias Kraus, Julia Anna Bingler, Markus Leippold

We argue that this deficiency is one of the reasons why very few publications in NLP report key figures that would allow a more thorough examination of environmental impact.
