NECA: Network-Embedded Deep Representation Learning for Categorical Data
Xiaonan Gao, Sen Wu, Wenjun Zhou
We propose NECA, a deep representation learning method for categorical data. Built upon the foundations of network embedding and deep unsupervised representation learning, NECA dee…
Understanding and Improving Information Transfer in Multi-Task Learning
Sen Wu, Hongyang R. Zhang, Christopher Ré
We investigate multi-task learning approaches that use a shared feature representation for all tasks. To better understand the transfer of task information, we study an architectur…
Ivy: Instrumental Variable Synthesis for Causal Inference
Zhaobin Kuang, Frederic Sala, Nimit Sohoni +5
A popular way to estimate the causal effect of a variable x on y from observational data is to use an instrumental variable (IV): a third variable z that affects y only through x.…
Slice-based Learning: A Programming Model for Residual Learning in Critical Data Slices
Vincent S. Chen, Sen Wu, Zhenzhen Weng +2
In real-world machine learning applications, data subsets correspond to especially critical outcomes: vulnerable cyclist detections are safety-critical in an autonomous driving tas…
Snorkel: Rapid Training Data Creation with Weak Supervision
Alexander Ratner, Stephen H. Bach, Henry Ehrenberg +3
Labeling training data is increasingly the largest bottleneck in deploying machine learning systems. We present Snorkel, a first-of-its-kind system that enables users to train stat…
