Emergent Communication of Generalizations

arXiv.org Artificial Intelligence

To build agents that can collaborate effectively with others, recent research has trained artificial agents to communicate with each other in Lewis-style referential games. However, this often leads to successful but uninterpretable communication. We argue that this is due to the game objective: communicating about a single object in a shared visual context is prone to overfitting and does not encourage language useful beyond concrete reference. In contrast, human language conveys a rich variety of abstract ideas. To promote such skills, we propose games that require communicating generalizations over sets of objects representing abstract visual concepts, optionally with separate contexts for each agent. We find that these games greatly improve systematicity and interpretability of the learned languages, according to several metrics in the literature. Finally, we propose a method for identifying logical operations embedded in the emergent languages by learning an approximate compositional reconstruction of the language.


Knowing the No-match: Entity Alignment with Dangling Cases

arXiv.org Artificial Intelligence

This paper studies a new problem setting of entity alignment for knowledge graphs (KGs). Since KGs possess different sets of entities, there could be entities that cannot find alignment across them, leading to the problem of dangling entities. As the first attempt to this problem, we construct a new dataset and design a multi-task learning framework for both entity alignment and dangling entity detection. The framework can opt to abstain from predicting alignment for the detected dangling entities. We propose three techniques for dangling entity detection that are based on the distribution of nearest-neighbor distances, i.e., nearest neighbor classification, marginal ranking and background ranking. After detecting and removing dangling entities, an incorporated entity alignment model in our framework can provide more robust alignment for remaining entities. Comprehensive experiments and analyses demonstrate the effectiveness of our framework. We further discover that the dangling entity detection module can, in turn, improve alignment learning and the final performance. The contributed resource is publicly available to foster further research.


Forward Super-Resolution: How Can GANs Learn Hierarchical Generative Models for Real-World Distributions

arXiv.org Machine Learning

In practice, by simply training a generator and a discriminator together consisting of multi-layer neural networks with non-linear activation functions, using local search algorithms such as stochastic gradient descent ascent (SGDA), the generator network can be trained efficiently to generate samples from highly-complicated distributions (such as the distribution of images). Despite the great empirical success of GAN, it remains to be one of the least understood models on the theory side of deep learning. Most of existing theories focus on the statistical properties of GANs at the global-optimum [15, 16, 20, 87]. However, on the training side, gradient descent ascent only enjoys efficient convergence to a global optimum when the loss function is convex-concave, or efficient convergence to a critical point in general settings [37, 38, 48, 53, 71, 73, 75, 77, 78]. Due to the extreme non-linearity of the networks in both the generator and the discriminator, it is highly unlikely that the training objective of GANs can be convex-concave. In particular, even if the generator and the discriminator are linear functions over prescribed feature mappings-- such as the neural tangent kernel (NTK) feature mappings [3, 8, 9, 17, 18, 32, 35, 40, 41, 47, 51, 54, 65, 69, 92, 97] -- the training objective can still be non-convex-concave.


Rethinking Noisy Label Models: Labeler-Dependent Noise with Adversarial Awareness

arXiv.org Machine Learning

Most studies on learning from noisy labels rely on unrealistic models of i.i.d. label noise, such as class-conditional transition matrices. More recent work on instance-dependent noise models are more realistic, but assume a single generative process for label noise across the entire dataset. We propose a more principled model of label noise that generalizes instance-dependent noise to multiple labelers, based on the observation that modern datasets are typically annotated using distributed crowdsourcing methods. Under our labeler-dependent model, label noise manifests itself under two modalities: natural error of good-faith labelers, and adversarial labels provided by malicious actors. We present two adversarial attack vectors that more accurately reflect the label noise that may be encountered in real-world settings, and demonstrate that under our multimodal noisy labels model, state-of-the-art approaches for learning from noisy labels are defeated by adversarial label attacks. Finally, we propose a multi-stage, labeler-aware, model-agnostic framework that reliably filters noisy labels by leveraging knowledge about which data partitions were labeled by which labeler, and show that our proposed framework remains robust even in the presence of extreme adversarial label noise.


Subgroup Fairness in Two-Sided Markets

arXiv.org Artificial Intelligence

It is well known that two-sided markets are unfair in a number of ways. For instance, female workers at Uber earn less than their male colleagues per mile driven. Similar observations have been made for other minority subgroups in other two-sided markets. Here, we suggest a novel market-clearing mechanism for two-sided markets, which promotes equalisation of the pay per hour worked across multiple subgroups, as well as within each subgroup. In the process, we introduce a novel notion of subgroup fairness (which we call Inter-fairness), which can be combined with other notions of fairness within each subgroup (called Intra-fairness), and the utility for the customers (Customer-Care) in the objective of the market-clearing problem. While the novel non-linear terms in the objective complicate market clearing by making the problem non-convex, we show that a certain non-convex augmented Lagrangian relaxation can be approximated to any precision in time polynomial in the number of market participants using semi-definite programming. This makes it possible to implement the market-clearing mechanism efficiently. On the example of driver-ride assignment in an Uber-like system, we demonstrate the efficacy and scalability of the approach, and trade-offs between Inter- and Intra-fairness.


How Good Is NLP? A Sober Look at NLP Tasks through the Lens of Social Impact

arXiv.org Artificial Intelligence

Recent years have seen many breakthroughs in natural language processing (NLP), transitioning it from a mostly theoretical field to one with many real-world applications. Noting the rising number of applications of other machine learning and AI techniques with pervasive societal impact, we anticipate the rising importance of developing NLP technologies for social good. Inspired by theories in moral philosophy and global priorities research, we aim to promote a guideline for social good in the context of NLP. We lay the foundations via moral philosophy's definition of social good, propose a framework to evaluate NLP tasks' direct and indirect real-world impact, and adopt the methodology of global priorities research to identify priority causes for NLP research. Finally, we use our theoretical framework to provide some practical guidelines for future NLP research for social good.

Distributional Sliced Embedding Discrepancy for Incomparable Distributions

arXiv.org Machine Learning

Gromov-Wasserstein (GW) distance is a key tool for manifold learning and cross-domain learning, allowing the comparison of distributions that do not live in the same metric space. Because of its high computational complexity, several approximate GW distances have been proposed based on entropy regularization or on slicing, and one-dimensional GW computation. In this paper, we propose a novel approach for comparing two incomparable distributions, that hinges on the idea of distributional slicing, embeddings, and on computing the closed-form Wasserstein distance between the sliced distributions. We provide a theoretical analysis of this new divergence, called distributional sliced embedding (DSE) discrepancy, and we show that it preserves several interesting properties of GW distance including rotation-invariance. We show that the embeddings involved in DSE can be efficiently learned. Finally, we provide a large set of experiments illustrating the behavior of DSE as a divergence in the context of generative modeling and in query framework.


Efficient Online-Bandit Strategies for Minimax Learning Problems

arXiv.org Machine Learning

Several learning problems involve solving min-max problems, e.g., empirical distributional robust learning or learning with non-standard aggregated losses. More specifically, these problems are convex-linear problems where the minimization is carried out over the model parameters $w\in\mathcal{W}$ and the maximization over the empirical distribution $p\in\mathcal{K}$ of the training set indexes, where $\mathcal{K}$ is the simplex or a subset of it. To design efficient methods, we let an online learning algorithm play against a (combinatorial) bandit algorithm. We argue that the efficiency of such approaches critically depends on the structure of $\mathcal{K}$ and propose two properties of $\mathcal{K}$ that facilitate designing efficient algorithms. We focus on a specific family of sets $\mathcal{S}_{n,k}$ encompassing various learning applications and provide high-probability convergence guarantees to the minimax values.
