Reinforcement Learning via Implicit Imitation Guidance

Perry Dong, Alec M. Lessing, Annie S. Chen +1

We study the problem of sample efficient reinforcement learning, where prior data such as demonstrations are provided for initialization in lieu of a dense reward signal. A natural…

Calibrating Language Models with Adaptive Temperature Scaling

Johnathan Xie, Annie S. Chen, Yoonho Lee +2

The effectiveness of large language models (LLMs) is not only measured by their ability to generate accurate outputs but also by their calibration-how well their confidence scores…

Self-Guided Masked Autoencoders for Domain-Agnostic Self-Supervised Learning

Johnathan Xie, Yoonho Lee, Annie S. Chen +1

Self-supervised learning excels in learning representations from large amounts of unlabeled data, demonstrating success across multiple data modalities. Yet, extending self-supervi…

RLVF: Learning from Verbal Feedback without Overgeneralization

Moritz Stephan, Alexander Khazatsky, Eric Mitchell +4

The diversity of contexts in which large language models (LLMs) are deployed requires the ability to modify or customize default model behaviors to incorporate nuanced requirements…

AutoFT: Learning an Objective for Robust Fine-Tuning

Caroline Choi, Yoonho Lee, Annie Chen +3

Foundation models encode rich representations that can be adapted to downstream tasks by fine-tuning. However, fine-tuning a model on one data distribution often degrades performan…

Confidence-Based Model Selection: When to Take Shortcuts for Subpopulation Shifts

Annie S. Chen, Yoonho Lee, Amrith Setlur +2

Effective machine learning models learn both robust features that directly determine the outcome of interest (e.g., an object with wheels is more likely to be a car), and shortcut…

Project and Probe: Sample-Efficient Domain Adaptation by Interpolating Orthogonal Features

Annie S. Chen, Yoonho Lee, Amrith Setlur +2

Transfer learning with a small amount of target data is an effective and common approach to adapting a pre-trained model to distribution shifts. In some situations, target data lab…

You Only Live Once: Single-Life Reinforcement Learning

Annie S. Chen, Archit Sharma, Sergey Levine +1

Reinforcement learning algorithms are typically designed to learn a performant policy that can repeatedly and autonomously complete a task, usually starting from scratch. However,…

Surgical Fine-Tuning Improves Adaptation to Distribution Shifts

Yoonho Lee, Annie S. Chen, Fahim Tajwar +4

A common approach to transfer learning under distribution shift is to fine-tune the last few layers of a pre-trained model, preserving learned features while also adapting to the n…

On the Opportunities and Risks of Foundation Models

Rishi Bommasani, Drew A. Hudson, Ehsan Adeli +111

AI is undergoing a paradigm shift with the rise of models (e.g., BERT, DALL-E, GPT-3) that are trained on broad data at scale and are adaptable to a wide range of downstream tasks.…

Just Train Twice: Improving Group Robustness without Training Group Information

Evan Zheran Liu, Behzad Haghgoo, Annie S. Chen +5

Standard training via empirical risk minimization (ERM) can produce models that achieve high accuracy on average but low accuracy on certain groups, especially in the presence of s…
