When Do Neural Nets Outperform Boosted Trees on Tabular Data?

1 code implementation NeurIPS 2023 Duncan McElfresh, Sujay Khandagale, Jonathan Valverde, Vishak Prasad C, Benjamin Feuer, Chinmay Hegde, Ganesh Ramakrishnan, Micah Goldblum, Colin White

To this end, we conduct the largest tabular data analysis to date, comparing 19 algorithms across 176 datasets, and we find that the 'NN vs. GBDT' debate is overemphasized: for a surprisingly high number of datasets, either the performance difference between GBDTs and NNs is negligible, or light hyperparameter tuning on a GBDT is more important than choosing between NNs and GBDTs.

Joint Learning of Hyperbolic Label Embeddings for Hierarchical Multi-label Classification

1 code implementation EACL 2021 Soumya Chatterjee, Ayush Maheshwari, Ganesh Ramakrishnan, Saketha Nath Jagaralpudi

Such a joint learning is expected to provide a twofold advantage: i) the classifier generalizes better as it leverages the prior knowledge of existence of a hierarchy over the labels, and ii) in addition to the label co-occurrence information, the label-embedding may benefit from the manifold structure of the input datapoints, leading to embeddings that are more faithful to the label hierarchy.
