Abstract: "Despite ML models' impressive performance, training and deploying them is currently a somewhat messy endeavor. But does it have to be? In this talk, I overview my work on making ML “predictably reliable”---enabling developers to know when their models will work, when they will fail, and why. To begin, we use a case study […]
Abstract: Large generative models such as ChatGPT have led to amazing results and revolutionized artificial intelligence. In this talk, I will discuss my research on advancing the foundation of these models, centered around addressing the architectural bottlenecks of learning from everything. First, I will describe our efforts to remove context size limitations of the transformer […]
Abstract: We reveal an intriguing and prevalent phenomenon of diffusion models which we term as ``consistent model reproducibility'': given the same starting noise input and a deterministic sampler, different diffusion models often yield remarkably similar outputs while they generate new samples. We demonstrate this phenomenon through comprehensive experiments and theoretical studies, implying that different diffusion […]
Abstract: We reveal an intriguing and prevalent phenomenon of diffusion models which we term as "consistent model reproducibility'': given the same starting noise input and a deterministic sampler, different diffusion models often yield remarkably similar outputs while they generate new samples. We demonstrate this phenomenon through comprehensive experiments and theoretical studies, implying that different diffusion models consistently reach the same data distribution and scoring function regardless of frameworks, model architectures, or training procedures. More strikingly, our further investigation implies that diffusion models are learning distinct distributions affected by the training data size and model capacity, so that the model reproducibility manifests in two distinct training regimes with phase transition: (i) "memorization regime", where the diffusion model overfits to the training data distribution, and (ii) "generalization regime", where the model learns the underlying data distribution and generate new samples with finite training data. Finally, our results have strong practical implications regarding training efficiency, model privacy, and controllable generation of diffusion models, and our work raises numerous intriguing theoretical questions for future investigation.
Abstract: As the intelligence of everyday smart devices continues to evolve, they can already monitor basic health behaviors such as physical activities and heart rates. The vision of an intelligent behavior change intervention pipeline for health -- combining behavior modeling & interaction design -- seems to be within reach. How do we get there? In […]
Abstract: "Modern database systems aim to support a large class of different use cases while simultaneously achieving high performance. However, as a result of their generality, databases often achieve adequate performance for the average use case but do not achieve the best performance for any individual use case. In this talk, I will describe my […]
HDSI! Come and join MathWorks Engineers for a technical seminar on AI (and lunch!) on Wednesday, April 3! Come learn why data scientists should learn MATLAB – we will highlight the tools that will be serve your role as data scientists and data science students. You can also learn about our engineer’s journey, roles available […]
Abstract: "In biomedical data analysis, an emerging trend focuses on contextualizing observations within biological and real-world processes. This approach facilitates high-resolution, context-specific insights by integrating information across datasets, but it is difficult to design systems which both share information and dynamically adapt to context. Toward this aim, this presentation will examine “contextualized learning”, a meta-learning […]
