Improving Group Robustness on Spurious Correlation via Evidential Alignment

Wenqian Ye, Guangtao Zheng, Aidong Zhang

Deep neural networks often learn and rely on spurious correlations, i.e., superficial associations between non-causal features and the targets. For instance, an image classifier ma…

ShortcutProbe: Probing Prediction Shortcuts for Learning Robust Models

Guangtao Zheng, Wenqian Ye, Aidong Zhang

Deep learning models often achieve high performance by inadvertently learning spurious correlations between targets and non-essential features. For example, an image classifier may…

NeuronTune: Towards Self-Guided Spurious Bias Mitigation

Guangtao Zheng, Wenqian Ye, Aidong Zhang

Deep neural networks often develop spurious bias, reliance on correlations between non-essential features and classes for predictions. For example, a model may identify objects bas…

Learning Robust Classifiers with Self-Guided Spurious Correlation Mitigation

Guangtao Zheng, Wenqian Ye, Aidong Zhang

Deep neural classifiers tend to rely on spurious correlations between spurious attributes of inputs and targets to make predictions, which could jeopardize their generalization cap…

The Clever Hans Mirage: A Comprehensive Survey on Spurious Correlations in Machine Learning

Wenqian Ye, Luyang Jiang, Eric Xie +16

Back in the early 20th century, a horse named Hans appeared to perform arithmetic and other intellectual tasks during exhibitions in Germany, while it actually relied solely on inv…
