Logical reasoning and Transformers
Mon, Oct 2, 2023, 4:30 pm

Abstract: Transformers have become the dominant neural network architecture in deep learning, in particular with the GPT language models. While they dominate in language and vision tasks, their performance is less convincing in so-called “reasoning” tasks. 

In this talk, we introduce the “generalization on the…

The Role of Relative Entropy in Supervised Machine Learning

In this talk, recent results on various aspects of the Empirical Risk Minimization (ERM) problem with Relative Entropy Regularization (ERM-RER) are presented. The regularization is with respect to a sigma-finite measure, instead of a probability measure, which provides a larger flexibility for including prior knowledge on the models. Special cases of this general formulation include the ERM problem with (discrete or differential) entropy regularization and the information-risk minimization problem.

The Reproducibility Crisis in ML‑based Science

This online workshop provides an interdisciplinary venue for diagnosing and addressing reproducibility failures in ML-based science. We especially welcome researchers outside traditional ML fields who are interested in applying ML methods in their own fields. Participants will learn to identify reproducibility failures in their own fields and ensure that their research is reproducible.

Some Thoughts on Generalization in Deep Learning: Mehul Motani (National University of Singapore)

A good learning algorithm is characterized primarily by its ability to predict beyond the training data, i.e., its ability to generalize. What makes a learning algorithm have the ability to generalize? And can we predict when a learning algorithm will generalize well? We believe that a clear answer to these questions is still elusive. In this talk, we will share some perspectives based on our work to understand generalization in deep learning algorithms.
