Quantifying Feature Contributions to Overall Disparity Using Information Theory

no code implementations16 Jun 2022 Sanghamitra Dutta, Praveen Venkatesh, Pulkit Grover

If we have access to the decision-making model, one potential approach (inspired from intervention-based approaches in explainability literature) is to vary each individual feature (while keeping the others fixed) and use the resulting change in disparity to quantify its contribution.

Can Information Flows Suggest Targets for Interventions in Neural Circuits?

1 code implementation NeurIPS 2021 Praveen Venkatesh, Sanghamitra Dutta, Neil Mehta, Pulkit Grover

Motivated by neuroscientific and clinical applications, we empirically examine whether observational measures of information flow can suggest interventions.

Analysis and Control of a Planar Quadrotor

1 code implementation29 Jun 2021 Praveen Venkatesh, Sanket Vadhvana, Varun Jain

We perform stability analysis of the open loop system and develop a PD controller for its position control.

Memory Guided Road Detection

1 code implementation27 Jun 2021 Praveen Venkatesh, Rwik Rana, Varun Jain

In self driving car applications, there is a requirement to predict the location of the lane given an input RGB front facing image.

Fairness Under Feature Exemptions: Counterfactual and Observational Measures

no code implementations14 Jun 2020 Sanghamitra Dutta, Praveen Venkatesh, Piotr Mardziel, Anupam Datta, Pulkit Grover

While quantifying disparity is essential, sometimes the needs of an occupation may require the use of certain features that are critical in a way that any disparity that can be explained by them might need to be exempted.

Efficient Near-Optimal Testing of Community Changes in Balanced Stochastic Block Models

no code implementations NeurIPS 2019 Aditya Gangrade, Praveen Venkatesh, Bobak Nazer, Venkatesh Saligrama

Overall, for large changes, $s \gg \sqrt{n}$, we need only $\mathrm{SNR}= O(1)$ whereas a na\"ive test based on community recovery with $O(s)$ errors requires $\mathrm{SNR}= \Theta(\log n)$.
