Beyond Bayes-optimality: meta-learning what you know you don't know
Jordi Grau-Moya, Grégoire Delétang, Markus Kunesch +11
Meta-training agents with memory has been shown to culminate in Bayes-optimal agents, which casts Bayes-optimality as the implicit solution to a numerical optimization problem rath…
Data Distributional Properties Drive Emergent In-Context Learning in Transformers
Stephanie C. Y. Chan, Adam Santoro, Andrew K. Lampinen +5
Large transformer-based models are able to perform in-context few-shot learning, without being explicitly trained for it. This observation raises the question: what aspects of the…
Semantic Exploration from Language Abstractions and Pretrained Representations
Allison C. Tam, Neil C. Rabinowitz, Andrew K. Lampinen +6
Effective exploration is a challenge in reinforcement learning (RL). Novelty-based exploration methods can suffer in high-dimensional state spaces, such as continuous partially-obs…
Learning to Induce Causal Structure
Nan Rosemary Ke, Silvia Chiappa, Jane Wang +7
The fundamental challenge in causal induction is to infer the underlying graph structure given observational and/or interventional data. Most existing causal induction algorithms o…
Can language models learn from explanations in context?
Andrew K. Lampinen, Ishita Dasgupta, Stephanie C. Y. Chan +6
Language Models (LMs) can perform new tasks by adapting to a few in-context examples. For humans, explanations that connect examples to task principles can improve learning. We the…
