Adapting Neural Networks for the Estimation of Treatment Effects
Claudia Shi, David M. Blei, Victor Veitch
This paper addresses the use of neural networks for the estimation of treatment effects from observational data. Generally, estimation proceeds in two stages. First, we fit models…
Using Embeddings to Correct for Unobserved Confounding in Networks
Victor Veitch, Yixin Wang, David M. Blei
We consider causal inference in the presence of unobserved confounding. We study the case where a proxy is available for the unobserved confounding in the form of a network connect…
Empirical Risk Minimization and Stochastic Gradient Descent for Relational Data
Victor Veitch, Morgane Austern, Wenda Zhou +2
Empirical risk minimization is the main tool for prediction problems, but its extension to relational data remains unsolved. We solve this problem using recent ideas from graph sam…
Non-Vacuous Generalization Bounds at the ImageNet Scale: A PAC-Bayesian Compression Approach
Wenda Zhou, Victor Veitch, Morgane Austern +2
Modern neural networks are highly overparameterized, with capacity to substantially overfit to training data. Nevertheless, these networks often generalize well in practice. It has…
Exchangeable modelling of relational data: checking sparsity, train-test splitting, and sparse exchangeable Poisson matrix factorization
Victor Veitch, Ekansh Sharma, Zacharie Naulet +1
A variety of machine learning tasks---e.g., matrix factorization, topic modelling, and feature allocation---can be viewed as learning the parameters of a probability distribution o…
