CaBaGe: Data-Free Model Extraction using ClAss BAlanced Generator Ensemble

Jonathan Rosenthal, Shanchao Liang, Kevin Zhang +1

Machine Learning as a Service (MLaaS) is often provided as a pay-per-query, black-box system to clients. Such a black-box approach not only hinders open replication, validation, an…

Deep Autoregressive Models as Causal Inference Engines

Daniel Jiwoong Im, Kevin Zhang, Nakul Verma +1

Existing causal inference (CI) models are often restricted to data with low-dimensional confounders and singleton actions. We propose an autoregressive (AR) CI framework capable of…
