Ask Your Distribution Shift if Pre-Training is Right for You

1 code implementation29 Feb 2024 Benjamin Cohen-Wang, Joshua Vendrow, Aleksander Madry

In particular, we focus on two possible failure modes of models under distribution shift: poor extrapolation (e. g., they cannot generalize to a different domain) and biases in the training data (e. g., they rely on spurious features).

Neural Nonnegative Matrix Factorization for Hierarchical Multilayer Topic Modeling

no code implementations28 Feb 2023 Tyler Will, Runyu Zhang, Eli Sadovnik, Mengdi Gao, Joshua Vendrow, Jamie Haddock, Denali Molitor, Deanna Needell

We introduce a new method based on nonnegative matrix factorization, Neural NMF, for detecting latent hierarchical structure in data.

Dataset Interfaces: Diagnosing Model Failures Using Controllable Counterfactual Generation

1 code implementation15 Feb 2023 Joshua Vendrow, Saachi Jain, Logan Engstrom, Aleksander Madry

In this work, we introduce the notion of a dataset interface: a framework that, given an input dataset and a user-specified shift, returns instances from that input distribution that exhibit the desired shift.

A Generalized Hierarchical Nonnegative Tensor Decomposition

1 code implementation30 Sep 2021 Joshua Vendrow, Jamie Haddock, Deanna Needell

Hierarchical NTF (HNTF) methods have been proposed, however these methods do not naturally generalize their matrix-based counterparts.

The California Innocence Project (CIP), a clinical law school program aiming to free wrongfully convicted prisoners, evaluates thousands of mails containing new requests for assistance and corresponding case files.

Learning low-rank latent mesoscale structures in networks

2 code implementations13 Feb 2021 Hanbaek Lyu, Yacoub H. Kureh, Joshua Vendrow, Mason A. Porter

It is common to use networks to encode the architecture of interactions between entities in complex systems in the physical, biological, social, and information sciences.

Neural Nonnegative CP Decomposition for Hierarchical Tensor Analysis

no code implementations1 Jan 2021 Joshua Vendrow, Jamie Haddock, Deanna Needell

We propose a new hierarchical nonnegative CANDECOMP/PARAFAC (CP) decomposition (hierarchical NCPD) model and a training method, Neural NCPD, for performing hierarchical topic modeling on multi-modal tensor data.

Learning to predict synchronization of coupled oscillators on randomly generated graphs

1 code implementation28 Dec 2020 Hardeep Bassi, Richard Yim, Rohith Kodukula, Joshua Vendrow, Cherlin Zhu, Hanbaek Lyu

However, in the problem setting where these graph statistics cannot distinguish the two classes very well (e. g., when the graphs are generated from the same random graph model), we find that pairing a few iterations of the initial dynamics along with the graph statistics as the input to our classification algorithms can lead to significant improvement in accuracy; far exceeding what is known by the classical oscillator theory.

On a Guided Nonnegative Matrix Factorization
