Tighter Bounds on the Information Bottleneck with Application to Deep Learning

1 code implementation12 Feb 2024 Nir Weingarten, Zohar Yakhini, Moshe Butman, Ran Gilad-Bachrach

These advancements strengthen the case for the IB and its variational approximations as a data modeling framework, and provide a simple method to significantly enhance the adversarial robustness of classifier DNNs.

Graph Neural Networks Use Graphs When They Shouldn't

1 code implementation8 Sep 2023 Maya Bechler-Speicher, Ido Amos, Ran Gilad-Bachrach, Amir Globerson

We analyze the implicit bias of gradient-descent learning of GNNs and prove that when the ground truth function does not use the graphs, GNNs are not guaranteed to learn a solution that ignores the graph, even with infinite data.

The Case Against Explainability

no code implementations20 May 2023 Hofit Wasserman Rozen, Niva Elkin-Koren, Ran Gilad-Bachrach

Accordingly, this study carries some important policy ramifications, as it calls upon regulators and Machine Learning practitioners to reconsider the widespread pursuit of end-user Explainability and a right to explanation of AI systems.

TREE-G: Decision Trees Contesting Graph Neural Networks

1 code implementation6 Jul 2022 Maya Bechler-Speicher, Amir Globerson, Ran Gilad-Bachrach

When dealing with tabular data, models based on decision trees are a popular choice due to their high accuracy on these data types, their ease of application, and explainability properties.

A Last Switch Dependent Analysis of Satiation and Seasonality in Bandits

1 code implementation22 Oct 2021 Pierre Laforgue, Giulia Clerici, Nicolò Cesa-Bianchi, Ran Gilad-Bachrach

Motivated by the fact that humans like some level of unpredictability or novelty, and might therefore get quickly bored when interacting with a stationary policy, we introduce a novel non-stationary bandit problem, where the expected reward of an arm is fully determined by the time elapsed since the arm last took part in a switch of actions.

Trees with Attention for Set Prediction Tasks

1 code implementation International Conference on Machine Learning 2021 Roy Hirsch, Ran Gilad-Bachrach

However, most machine learning algorithms are not designed to handle set structures and are limited to processing records of fixed size.

Marginal Contribution Feature Importance -- an Axiomatic Approach for The Natural Case

1 code implementation15 Oct 2020 Amnon Catav, Boyang Fu, Jason Ernst, Sriram Sankararaman, Ran Gilad-Bachrach

While it is common to make the distinction between local scores that focus on individual predictions and global scores that look at the contribution of a feature to the model, another important division distinguishes model scenarios, in which the goal is to understand predictions of a given model from natural scenarios, in which the goal is to understand a phenomenon such as a disease.

Crypto-Nets: Neural Networks over Encrypted Data

1 code implementation18 Dec 2014 Pengtao Xie, Misha Bilenko, Tom Finley, Ran Gilad-Bachrach, Kristin Lauter, Michael Naehrig

To achieve the privacy requirements, we use homomorphic encryption in the following protocol: the data owner encrypts the data and sends the ciphertexts to the third party to obtain a prediction from a trained model.

Using Multiple Samples to Learn Mixture Models

no code implementations NeurIPS 2013 Jason D. Lee, Ran Gilad-Bachrach, Rich Caruana

In the mixture models problem it is assumed that there are $K$ distributions $\theta_{1},\ldots,\theta_{K}$ and one gets to observe a sample from a mixture of these distributions with unknown coefficients.
