Statistical Query Hardness of Multiclass Linear Classification with Random Classification Noise

no code implementations17 Feb 2025 Ilias Diakonikolas, Mingchen Ma, Lisheng Ren, Christos Tzamos

In more detail, even for three labels and constant separation, we give a super-polynomial lower bound on the complexity of any SQ algorithm achieving optimal error.

AutoCBT: An Autonomous Multi-agent Framework for Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in Psychological Counseling

no code implementations16 Jan 2025 Ancheng Xu, Di Yang, Renhao Li, Jingwei Zhu, Minghuan Tan, Min Yang, Wanxin Qiu, Mingchen Ma, Haihong Wu, Bingyu Li, Feng Sha, Chengming Li, Xiping Hu, Qiang Qu, Derek F. Wong, Ruifeng Xu

Traditional in-person psychological counseling remains primarily niche, often chosen by individuals with psychological issues, while online automated counseling offers a potential solution for those hesitant to seek help due to feelings of shame.

Active Learning of General Halfspaces: Label Queries vs Membership Queries

no code implementations31 Dec 2024 Ilias Diakonikolas, Daniel M. Kane, Mingchen Ma

Specifically, to beat the passive label complexity of $\tilde{O} (d/\epsilon)$, an active learner requires a pool of $2^{poly(d)}$ unlabeled samples.

Buying Information for Stochastic Optimization

no code implementations6 Jun 2023 Mingchen Ma, Christos Tzamos

In this paper, we study how to buy information for stochastic optimization and formulate this question as an online learning problem.

Clustering with Queries under Semi-Random Noise

no code implementations9 Jun 2022 Alberto Del Pia, Mingchen Ma, Christos Tzamos

Our main result is a computationally efficient algorithm that can identify large clusters with $O\left(\frac{nk \log n} {(1-2p)^2}\right) + \text{poly}\left(\log n, k, \frac{1}{1-2p} \right)$ queries, matching the guarantees of the best known algorithms in the fully-random model.
