A distribution shift between the training and test data can severely harm performance of machine learning models. Importance weighting addresses this issue by assigning different weights to data points during training. We argue that existing heuristics for determining the weights are suboptimal, as…
Modern neural networks often encode unwanted concepts alongside task-relevant information, leading to fairness and interpretability concerns. Existing post-hoc approaches can remove undesired concepts but often degrade useful signals. We introduce SPLINCE—Simultaneous Projection for LINear concept r…
An important challenge in the field of interpretable machine learning is to ensure that deep neural networks (DNNs) use the correct or desirable input features in performing their tasks. Concept-removal methods aim to do this by eliminating concepts that are spuriously correlated with the main task…
