Exploration of dynamic environments with sparse rewards is a significant challenge in Reinforcement Learning, often leading to inefficient exploration and brittle policies. To address this, we introduce a novel graph-based intrinsic reward using Effective Resistance, a metric from spectral graph the…
Covariate shift in the test data is a common practical phenomena that can significantly downgrade both the accuracy and the fairness performance of the model. Ensuring fairness across different sensitive groups under covariate shift is of paramount importance due to societal implications like crimin…
Molecular Representation Learning (MRL) has proven impactful in numerous biochemical applications such as drug discovery and enzyme design. While Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) are effective at learning molecular representations from a 2D molecular graph or a single 3D structure, existing works often…
We present one of the preliminary NLP works under the challenging setup of Learning from Label Proportions (LLP), where the data is provided in an aggregate form called bags and only the proportion of samples in each class as the ground truth. This setup is inline with the desired characteristics of…
Despite the demonstrated empirical efficacy of prompt tuning to adapt a pretrained language model for a new task, the theoretical underpinnings of the difference between "tuning parameters before the input" against "the tuning of model weights" are limited. We thus take one of the first steps to und…
We propose to study the problem of few-shot graph classification in graph neural networks (GNNs) to recognize unseen classes, given limited labeled graph examples. Despite several interesting GNN variants being proposed recently for node and graph classification tasks, when faced with scarce labeled…
