Mitigating Participation Imbalance Bias in Asynchronous Federated Learning
Xiangyu Chang, Manyi Yao, Srikanth V. Krishnamurthy +5
In Asynchronous Federated Learning (AFL), the central server immediately updates the global model with each arriving client's contribution. As a result, clients perform their local…
Towards Source-Free Machine Unlearning
Sk Miraj Ahmed, Umit Yigit Basaran, Dripta S. Raychaudhuri +5
As machine learning becomes more pervasive and data privacy regulations evolve, the ability to remove private or copyrighted information from trained models is becoming an increasi…
When and How Unlabeled Data Provably Improve In-Context Learning
Yingcong Li, Xiangyu Chang, Muti Kara +3
Recent research shows that in-context learning (ICL) can be effective even when demonstrations have missing or incorrect labels. To shed light on this capability, we examine a cano…
A Certified Unlearning Approach without Access to Source Data
Umit Yigit Basaran, Sk Miraj Ahmed, Amit Roy-Chowdhury +1
With the growing adoption of data privacy regulations, the ability to erase private or copyrighted information from trained models has become a crucial requirement. Traditional unl…
Selective Attention: Enhancing Transformer through Principled Context Control
Xuechen Zhang, Xiangyu Chang, Mingchen Li +3
The attention mechanism within the transformer architecture enables the model to weigh and combine tokens based on their relevance to the query. While self-attention has enjoyed ma…
