Correcting sample selection bias in maximum entropy density estimation

Neural Information Processing Systems

We study the problem of maximum entropy density estimation in the presence of known sample selection bias. We propose three bias cor- rection approaches. The first one takes advantage of unbiased sufficient statistics which can be obtained from biased samples. The second one es- timates the biased distribution and then factors the bias out. The third one approximates the second by only using samples from the sampling distri- bution.


Correcting Sample Selection Bias by Unlabeled Data

Neural Information Processing Systems

We consider the scenario where training and test data are drawn from different distributions, commonly referred to as sample selection bias. Most algorithms for this setting try to first recover sampling distributions and then make appro- priate corrections based on the distribution estimate. We present a nonparametric method which directly produces resampling weights without distribution estima- tion. Our method works by matching distributions between training and testing sets in feature space. Experimental results demonstrate that our method works well in practice.
