Assessing Group-level Gender Bias in Professional Evaluations: The Case of Medical Student End-of-Shift Feedback

no code implementations NAACL (GeBNLP) 2022 Emmy Liu, Michael Henry Tessler, Nicole Dubosh, Katherine Mosher Hiller, Roger Levy

Although approximately 50% of medical school graduates today are women, female physicians tend to be underrepresented in senior positions, make less money than their male counterparts and receive fewer promotions.

Learning to solve complex tasks by growing knowledge culturally across generations

1 code implementation28 Jul 2021 Michael Henry Tessler, Jason Madeano, Pedro A. Tsividis, Brin Harper, Noah D. Goodman, Joshua B. Tenenbaum

The video game paradigm we pioneer here is thus a rich test bed for developing AI systems capable of acquiring and transmitting cultural knowledge.

Improving Coherence and Consistency in Neural Sequence Models with Dual-System, Neuro-Symbolic Reasoning

no code implementations NeurIPS 2021 Maxwell Nye, Michael Henry Tessler, Joshua B. Tenenbaum, Brenden M. Lake

Human reasoning can often be understood as an interplay between two systems: the intuitive and associative ("System 1") and the deliberative and logical ("System 2").

Communicating Natural Programs to Humans and Machines

2 code implementations15 Jun 2021 Samuel Acquaviva, Yewen Pu, Marta Kryven, Theodoros Sechopoulos, Catherine Wong, Gabrielle E Ecanow, Maxwell Nye, Michael Henry Tessler, Joshua B. Tenenbaum

We present LARC, the \textit{Language-complete ARC}: a collection of natural language descriptions by a group of human participants who instruct each other on how to solve ARC tasks using language alone, which contains successful instructions for 88\% of the ARC tasks.

Program Synthesis

A practical introduction to the Rational Speech Act modeling framework

no code implementations20 May 2021 Gregory Scontras, Michael Henry Tessler, Michael Franke

Recent advances in computational cognitive science (i. e., simulation-based probabilistic programs) have paved the way for significant progress in formal, implementable models of pragmatics.

Practical optimal experiment design with probabilistic programs

no code implementations17 Aug 2016 Long Ouyang, Michael Henry Tessler, Daniel Ly, Noah Goodman

PPLs offer a clean separation between declaring problems and solving them, which means that the scientist can automate experiment design by simply declaring her model and experiment spaces in the PPL without having to worry about the details of calculating information gain.

Probabilistic Programming

The Language of Generalization

1 code implementation9 Aug 2016 Michael Henry Tessler, Noah D. Goodman

Language provides simple ways of communicating generalizable knowledge to each other (e. g., "Birds fly", "John hikes", "Fire makes smoke").
