Improving Compositional Generalization using Iterated Learning and Simplicial Embeddings

Neural Information Processing Systems

Compositional generalization, the ability of an agent to generalize to unseen combinations of latent factors, is easy for humans but hard for deep neural networks. A line of research in cognitive science has hypothesized a process, "iterated learning,"


How a student becomes a teacher: learning and forgetting through Spectral methods

Neural Information Processing Systems

The above scheme proves particularly relevant when the student network is overparameterized (namely, when larger layer sizes are employed) as compared to the underlying teacher network. Under these operating conditions, it is tempting to speculate that the student ability to handle the given task could be eventually stored in a sub-portion of the whole network.
