hyppo: A Multivariate Hypothesis Testing Python Package

4 code implementations3 Jul 2019 Sambit Panda, Satish Palaniappan, Junhao Xiong, Eric W. Bridgeford, Ronak Mehta, Cencheng Shen, Joshua T. Vogelstein

We introduce hyppo, a unified library for performing multivariate hypothesis testing, including independence, two-sample, and k-sample testing.

Robust Blind Deconvolution via Mirror Descent

4 code implementations21 Mar 2018 Sathya N. Ravi, Ronak Mehta, Vikas Singh

We revisit the Blind Deconvolution problem with a focus on understanding its robustness and convergence properties.

Random Forests for Adaptive Nearest Neighbor Estimation of Information-Theoretic Quantities

1 code implementation30 Jun 2019 Ronan Perry, Ronak Mehta, Richard Guo, Eva Yezerets, Jesús Arroyo, Mike Powell, Hayden Helm, Cencheng Shen, Joshua T. Vogelstein

Information-theoretic quantities, such as conditional entropy and mutual information, are critical data summaries for quantifying uncertainty.

Resource Constrained Neural Network Architecture Search: Will a Submodularity Assumption Help?

1 code implementation ICCV 2019 Yunyang Xiong, Ronak Mehta, Vikas Singh

In the latter case, the optimization is often non-differentiable and also not very amenable to derivative-free optimization methods.

Scaling Recurrent Models via Orthogonal Approximations in Tensor Trains

1 code implementation ICCV 2019 Ronak Mehta, Rudrasis Chakraborty, Yunyang Xiong, Vikas Singh

Using insights from differential geometry, we adapt the tensor train decomposition to construct networks with significantly fewer parameters, allowing us to train powerful recurrent networks on whole brain image volume sequences.

Stochastic Optimization for Spectral Risk Measures

1 code implementation10 Dec 2022 Ronak Mehta, Vincent Roulet, Krishna Pillutla, Lang Liu, Zaid Harchaoui

Spectral risk objectives - also called $L$-risks - allow for learning systems to interpolate between optimizing average-case performance (as in empirical risk minimization) and worst-case performance on a task.

Manifold Oblique Random Forests: Towards Closing the Gap on Convolutional Deep Networks

1 code implementation25 Sep 2019 Adam Li, Ronan Perry, Chester Huynh, Tyler M. Tomita, Ronak Mehta, Jesus Arroyo, Jesse Patsolic, Benjamin Falk, Joshua T. Vogelstein

In particular, Forests dominate other methods in tabular data, that is, when the feature space is unstructured, so that the signal is invariant to a permutation of the feature indices.

Sampling-free Uncertainty Estimation in Gated Recurrent Units with Exponential Families

no code implementations19 Apr 2018 Seong Jae Hwang, Ronak Mehta, Hyunwoo J. Kim, Vikas Singh

There has recently been a concerted effort to derive mechanisms in vision and machine learning systems to offer uncertainty estimates of the predictions they make.

Finding Differentially Covarying Needles in a Temporally Evolving Haystack: A Scan Statistics Perspective

no code implementations20 Nov 2017 Ronak Mehta, Hyunwoo J. Kim, Shulei Wang, Sterling C. Johnson, Ming Yuan, Vikas Singh

Recent results in coupled or temporal graphical models offer schemes for estimating the relationship structure between features when the data come from related (but distinct) longitudinal sources.

Independence Testing for Temporal Data

no code implementations18 Aug 2019 Cencheng Shen, Jaewon Chung, Ronak Mehta, Ting Xu, Joshua T. Vogelstein

While many non-parametric and universally consistent dependence measures have recently been proposed, directly applying them to temporal data can inflate the p-value and result in invalid test.

Towards a theory of out-of-distribution learning

no code implementations29 Sep 2021 Ali Geisa, Ronak Mehta, Hayden S. Helm, Jayanta Dey, Eric Eaton, Jeffery Dick, Carey E. Priebe, Joshua T. Vogelstein

This assumption renders these theories inadequate for characterizing 21$^{st}$ century real world data problems, which are typically characterized by evaluation distributions that differ from the training data distributions (referred to as out-of-distribution learning).

Distributionally Robust Optimization with Bias and Variance Reduction

no code implementations21 Oct 2023 Ronak Mehta, Vincent Roulet, Krishna Pillutla, Zaid Harchaoui

We consider the distributionally robust optimization (DRO) problem with spectral risk-based uncertainty set and $f$-divergence penalty.

A Primal-Dual Algorithm for Faster Distributionally Robust Optimization

no code implementations16 Mar 2024 Ronak Mehta, Jelena Diakonikolas, Zaid Harchaoui

We consider the penalized distributionally robust optimization (DRO) problem with a closed, convex uncertainty set, a setting that encompasses the $f$-DRO, Wasserstein-DRO, and spectral/$L$-risk formulations used in practice.
