The Importance of Modeling Data Missingness in Algorithmic Fairness: A Causal Perspective

Naman Goel, Amit Sharma

Training datasets for machine learning often have some form of missingness. For example, to learn a model for deciding whom to give a loan, the available training data includes individuals who were given a loan in the past, but not those who were not. This ...

A Rapid Form of Offline Consolidation in Skill Learning

Inaki Asier Iturrate Gil

The brain strengthens memories through consolidation, defined as resistance to interference (stabilization) or performance improvements between the end of a practice session and the beginning of the next (offline gains) [1]. Typically, consolidation has be ...

Increasing upper limb training intensity in chronic stroke using embodied virtual reality: a pilot study

Olaf Blanke, José del Rocio Millán Ruiz, Andrea Serino, Gangadhar Garipelli, Thomas Schmidlin, Odile Hélène Chevalley

Background: Technology-mediated neurorehabilitation is suggested to enhance training intensity and therefore functional gains. Here, we used a novel virtual reality (VR) system for task-specific upper extremity training after stroke. The system offers inte ...

Asymptotically Optimal Matching of Multiple Sequences to Source Distributions and Training Sequences

Jayakrishnan Unnikrishnan

Consider a finite set of sources, each producing independent identically distributed observations that follow a unique probability distribution on a finite alphabet. We study the problem of matching a finite set of observed sequences to the set of sources ...

Transfer Learning through Greedy Subset Selection

Barbara Caputo, Ilja Kuzborskij

In this work we study the binary transfer learning problem involving 10^2 -10^3 sources. We focus on how to select sources from the large pool and how to combine them to yield a good performance on a target task. In particular, we consider the transfer lea ...
