Convergence Rates for the MAP of an Exponential Family and Stochastic Mirror Descent -- an Open Problem
Rémi Le Priol, Frederik Kunstner, Damien Scieur +1
We consider the problem of upper bounding the expected log-likelihood sub-optimality of the maximum likelihood estimate (MLE), or a conjugate maximum a posteriori (MAP) for an expo…
An Analysis of the Adaptation Speed of Causal Models
Rémi Le Priol, Reza Babanezhad Harikandeh, Yoshua Bengio +1
Consider a collection of datasets generated by unknown interventions on an unknown structural causal model . Recently, Bengio et al. (2020) conjectured that among all candidate…
Out-of-Distribution Generalization via Risk Extrapolation (REx)
David Krueger, Ethan Caballero, Joern-Henrik Jacobsen +5
Distributional shift is one of the major obstacles when transferring machine learning prediction systems from the lab to the real world. To tackle this problem, we assume that vari…
Negative Momentum for Improved Game Dynamics
Gauthier Gidel, Reyhane Askari Hemmat, Mohammad Pezeshki +4
Games generalize the single-objective optimization paradigm by introducing different objective functions for different players. Differentiable games often proceed by simultaneous o…
Adaptive Stochastic Dual Coordinate Ascent for Conditional Random Fields
Rémi Le Priol, Alexandre Piché, Simon Lacoste-Julien
This work investigates the training of conditional random fields (CRFs) via the stochastic dual coordinate ascent (SDCA) algorithm of Shalev-Shwartz and Zhang (2016). SDCA enjoys a…
