Reaching a Consensus in Predictive Loops

Jiduan Wu, Rediet Abebe, Celestine Mendler-Dünner

Predictions in digital platforms must adapt over time as individuals update their beliefs through social interactions. At the same time, changing predictions alter the content peop…

Adjusting Pretrained Backbones for Performativity

Berker Demirel, Lingjing Kong, Kun Zhang +3

With the widespread deployment of deep learning models, they influence their environment in various ways. The induced distribution shifts can lead to unexpected performance degrada…

Questioning the Survey Responses of Large Language Models

Ricardo Dominguez-Olmedo, Moritz Hardt, Celestine Mendler-Dünner

Surveys have recently gained popularity as a tool to study large language models. By comparing survey responses of models to those of human reference populations, researchers aim t…

Collaborative Learning via Prediction Consensus

Dongyang Fan, Celestine Mendler-Dünner, Martin Jaggi

We consider a collaborative learning setting where the goal of each agent is to improve their own model by leveraging the expertise of collaborators, in addition to their own train…

Causal Inference out of Control: Estimating the Steerability of Consumption

Gary Cheng, Moritz Hardt, Celestine Mendler-Dünner

Regulators and academics are increasingly interested in the causal effect that algorithmic actions of a digital platform have on consumption. We introduce a general causal inferenc…

Algorithmic Collective Action in Machine Learning

Moritz Hardt, Eric Mazumdar, Celestine Mendler-Dünner +1

We initiate a principled study of algorithmic collective action on digital platforms that deploy machine learning algorithms. We propose a simple theoretical model of a collective…

Test-time Collective Prediction

Celestine Mendler-Dünner, Wenshuo Guo, Stephen Bates +1

An increasingly common setting in machine learning involves multiple parties, each with their own data, who want to jointly make predictions on future test points. Agents wish to b…
