Generative models based on point processes for financial time series simulation
(2021-04-07)In this seminar, I will talk about generative models based on point processes for financial time series simulation. Specifically, we focus on a recently developed state-dependent Hawkes (sdHawkes) process to model the limit ... -
You can lead a horse to water...: Representing vs. Using Features in Neural NLP
(2021-03-24)A wave of recent work has sought to understand how pretrained language models work. Such analyses have resulted in two seemingly contradictory sets of results. On one hand, work based on "probing classifiers" generally ... -
Compressed computation of good policies in large MDPs
(2021-03-10)Markov decision processes (MDPs) is a minimalist framework to capture that many tasks require long-term plans and feedback due to noisy dynamics. Yet, as a result MDPs lack structure and as such planning and learning in ... -
Learning Tree Models in Noise: Exact Asymptotics and Robust Algorithms
(2021-02-10)We consider the classical problem of learning tree-structured graphical models but with the twist that the observations are corrupted in independent noise. For the case in which the noise is identically distributed, we ... -
Interpretable latent space and inverse problem in deep generative models
(2021-01-27)Recent progress in deep generative models such as Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) has enabled synthesizing photo-realistic images, such as faces and scenes. However, it remains much less explored on what has been ... -
Sound-Based Technologies and Strategies Used for Community Mobility by Adults with Vision Disability
(Georgia Institute of Technology, 2019)This investigation specifically examined adults’ self-reported use and usefulness of technologies (personal and public) and compensatory strategies for community mobility. The first study consisted of interviews with older ... -
ML@GT Lab presents LAB LIGHTNING TALKS 2020
(2020-12-04)Labs affiliated with the Machine Learning Center at Georgia Tech (ML@GT) will have the opportunity to share their research interests, work, and unique aspects of their lab in three minutes or less to interested graduate ... -
Bringing Visual Memories to Life
(2020-12-02)Photography allows us to capture and share memorable moments of our lives. However, 2D images appear flat due to the lack of depth perception and may suffer from poor imaging conditions such as taking photos through ... -
Let’s Talk about Bias and Diversity in Data, Software, and Institutions
(2020-11-20)Bias and lack of diversity have long been deep-rooted problems across industries. We discuss how these issues impact data, software, and institutions, and how we can improve moving forward. The panel will feature thought ... -
Towards High Precision Text Generation
(2020-11-11)Despite large advances in neural text generation in terms of fluency, existing generation techniques are prone to hallucination and often produce output that is unfaithful or irrelevant to the source text. In this talk, ... -
Applying Emerging Technologies In Service of Journalism at The New York Times
(2020-10-30)Emerging technologies, particularly within computer vision, photogrammetry, and spatial computing, are unlocking new forms of storytelling for journalists to help people understand the world around them. In this talk, ... -
Reasoning about Complex Media from Weak Multi-modal Supervision
(2020-10-28)In a world of abundant information targeting multiple senses, and increasingly powerful media, we need new mechanisms to model content. Techniques for representing individual channels, such as visual data or textual data, ... -
Active Learning: From Linear Classifiers to Overparameterized Neural Networks
(2020-10-07)The field of Machine Learning (ML) has advanced considerably in recent years, but mostly in well-defined domains using huge amounts of human-labeled training data. Machines can recognize objects in images and translate ... -
Using rationales and influential training examples to (attempt to) explain neural predictions in NLP
(2020-09-09)Modern deep learning models for natural language processing (NLP) achieve state-of-the-art predictive performance but are notoriously opaque. I will discuss recent work looking to address this limitation. I will focus ... -
A Review of the Research Literature on Evidence-Based Healthcare Design
(Georgia Institute of Technology, 2008)This report surveys and evaluates the scientific research on evidence-based healthcare design and extracts its implications for designing better and safer hospitals. -
