Title: [NLP2] Data Intelligence for Robust NLP
 
 

Abs: Training AI models can be viewed as interacting human intelligence with model intelligence. From this view, current norms of model training are constrained to crowdsourcing label annotations for a closed set. Such constrained interactions may explain why models solve datasets, instead of pursuing true learning goals. This talk discusses our recent work, showing how data intelligence research is relevant to enriching interactions between human and model intelligence, for robust training of NLP models that generalize well. More details can be found from http://seungwonh.github.io

Title: An Introduction to Causal Inference: Potential Outcome and Directed Acyclic Graph Approaches to Causality
 
 
Abs: Many questions in not only social science but also AI research are causal in nature: what would happen to individuals, organizations, or the society, if part of their environment were changed? —for example, the impact (or lack thereof) of increases in the minimum wage on employment, the effect of introducing a recommender system on product sales, or the effect of replacing the legacy system with AI-based smart systems on firm performance. Causal inference encompasses statistical and computational methods for studying such questions and determining what causes what. Across multiple disciplines, causal inference has been achieved largely building on two frameworks: (i) Potential Outcome Framework, also known as Rubin Causal Model (design-based approach), and (ii) Structural Causal Model (graph-based approach). Thus, this lecture on causal inference aims to introduce these related but distinct approaches toward causal inference, specifically concerning research that uses observational data to identify a causal effect. Moreover, the key differences between the two causal models are also discussed in pursuit of connecting the two worlds of causal inference.

Title: [RL2] Policy gradients in deep reinforcement learning

First, I will explain how the policy objective can be a particularly difficult optimization problem. Then, I will present existing tools to relax the challenges: (a) standard tools from optimization and (b) tools leveraging more knowledge about the objective. Recent policy gradient schemes including TRPO, PPO, DDPG and SAC will be covered.
