An Embarrassingly Simple Graph Heuristic Reveals Shortcut-Solvable Benchmarks for Sequential Recommendation

Sequential recommendation is a central task in recommender systems, and recent research has increasingly shifted toward generative recommenders that leverage both sequential patterns and semantic item information. However, these methods are often evaluated on a small set of widely used benchmarks. This raises a natural question: do these benchmarks actually require the advanced modeling capabilities […]

When silence is safer: a review and decision-theoretic framework for LLM abstention in healthcare

Large language models (LLMs) are designed to generate answers to user prompts, which often drives them to respond even when uncertainty is high, information is incomplete, or a refusal would be more appropriate. In healthcare, this tendency can be dangerous: confidently stated but inaccurate medical advice can cause significant harm, making the ability to abstain

The Word is Mightier than the Label: Learning without Pointillistic Labels using Data Programming

We analyze the math fundamentals behind DP and demonstrate the power of it by applying it on two real-world text classification tasks. Furthermore, we compare DP with pointillistic active and semi-supervised learning techniques traditionally applied in data-sparse settings.

Human Learn

Machine learning covers a lot of ground but it is also capable of making bad decision. We’ve also reached a stage of hype that folks forget that many classification problems can be handled by natural intelligence too. This package contains scikit-learn compatible tools that should make it easier to construct and benchmark rule based systems

YOLOX: Exceeding YOLO Series in 2021

We switch the YOLO detector to an anchor-free manner and conduct other advanced detection techniques, i.e., a decoupled head and the leading label assignment strategy SimOTA to achieve state-of-the-art results across a large scale range of models: For YOLO-Nano with only 0.91M parameters and 1.08G FLOPs, we get 25.3% AP on COCO, surpassing NanoDet by

A Farewell to the Bias-Variance Tradeoff? An Overview of the Theory of Overparameterized Machine Learning

This paper provides a succinct overview of this emerging theory of overparameterized ML (henceforth abbreviated as TOPML) that explains these recent findings through a statistical signal processing perspective. We emphasize the unique aspects that define the TOPML research area as a subfield of modern ML theory and outline interesting open questions that remain.

YOLOP: You Only Look Once for Panoptic Driving Perception

A panoptic driving perception system is an essential part of autonomous driving. A high-precision and real-time perception system can assist the vehicle in making the reasonable decision while driving. We present a panoptic driving perception network (YOLOP) to perform traffic object detection, drivable area segmentation and lane detection simultaneously. It is composed of one encoder
