Memorization in Attention-only Transformers

Léo Dana, Muni Sreenivas Pydi, Yann Chevaleyre

Recent research has explored the memorization capacity of multi-head attention, but these findings are constrained by unrealistic limitations on the context size. We present a nove…

Precision-Recall Divergence Optimization for Generative Modeling with GANs and Normalizing Flows

Alexandre Verine, Benjamin Negrevergne, Muni Sreenivas Pydi +1

Achieving a balance between image quality (precision) and diversity (recall) is a significant challenge in the domain of generative models. Current state-of-the-art models primaril…

Training Normalizing Flows with the Precision-Recall Divergence

Alexandre Verine, Benjamin Negrevergne, Muni Sreenivas Pydi +1

Generative models can have distinct mode of failures like mode dropping and low quality samples, which cannot be captured by a single scalar metric. To address this, recent works p…

The Many Faces of Adversarial Risk

Muni Sreenivas Pydi, Varun Jog

Adversarial risk quantifies the performance of classifiers on adversarially perturbed data. Numerous definitions of adversarial risk -- not all mathematically rigorous and differin…

Active Learning with Importance Sampling

Muni Sreenivas Pydi, Vishnu Suresh Lokhande

We consider an active learning setting where the algorithm has access to a large pool of unlabeled data and a small pool of labeled data. In each iteration, the algorithm chooses f…

Graph-Based Ascent Algorithms for Function Maximization

Muni Sreenivas Pydi, Varun Jog, Po-Ling Loh

We study the problem of finding the maximum of a function defined on the nodes of a connected graph. The goal is to identify a node where the function obtains its maximum. We focus…

Analytic Connectivity in General Hypergraphs

Ashwin Guha, Muni Sreenivas Pydi, Biswajit Paria +1

In this paper we extend the known results of analytic connectivity to non-uniform hypergraphs. We prove a modified Cheeger's inequality and also give a bound on analytic connectivi…
