Almost Free: Self-concordance in Natural Exponential Families and an Application to Bandits
We study how tail properties of the base distribution of a NEF impose limits on the NEF: if the base distribution is subexponential (subgaussian), we show that the NEF is self-concordant with a stretch factor that grows inverse quadratically (respectively, linearly) 2.
On the Need for a Language Describing Distribution Shifts: Illustrations on Tabular Datasets
Different distribution shifts require different algorithmic and operational interventions. Methodological research must be grounded by the specific shifts they address.
HQA-Attack: Toward High Quality Black-Box Hard-Label Adversarial Attack on Text
To alleviate the above issues, we propose a simple yet effective framework for producing H igh Q uality black-box hard-label A dversarial Attack, named HQA-Attack . The overview of HQA-Attack is shown in Figure 1. By "high quality", it means that the HQA-Attack method can generate
Provably Optimal Memory Capacity for Modern Hopfield Models: Transformer-Compatible Dense Associative Memories as Spherical Codes Jerry Y ao-Chieh Hu Dennis Wu
We study the optimal memorization capacity of modern Hopfield models and Kernelized Hopfield Models (KHMs), a transformer-compatible class of Dense Associative Memories.
