Predicting drop coalescence based on process parameters is crucial for experiment design in chemical engineering. However, predictive models can suffer from the lack of training data and more importantly, the label imbalance problem. In…
Fixed representational capacity is a fundamental constraint in continual learning: practitioners must guess an appropriate model width before training, without knowing how many distinct concepts the data contains. We propose LACE…
Latent variable models for text, when trained successfully, accurately model the data distribution and capture global semantic and syntactic features of sentences. The prominent approach to train such models is variational autoencoders…
A foundational assumption in complex-system collapse studies is that critical transitions are second-order, preceded by early-warning signals like rising autocorrelation, variance, and critical slowing down (Scheffer, 2009). We show this…
With the increasing emphasis on data privacy, the significance of machine unlearning has grown substantially. Class unlearning, which involves enabling a trained model to forget data belonging to a specific class learned before, is…
Keeping large foundation models up to date on latest data is inherently expensive. To avoid the prohibitive costs of constantly retraining, it is imperative to continually train these models. This problem is exacerbated by the lack of any…
Continual learning aims to sequentially learn new tasks without forgetting previous tasks' knowledge (catastrophic forgetting). One factor that can cause forgetting is the interference between the gradients on losses from different tasks.…
Online Surgical Phase Recognition (SPR) models can reach high frame-wise accuracy, yet their predictions often lack temporal stability, fragmenting workflow understanding and reducing the reliability of downstream assistance. We show that…
