Debiased Machine Learning without Sample-Splitting for Stable Estimators

NeurIPS 2022accept

Estimation and inference on causal parameters is typically reduced to a generalized method of moments problem, which involves auxiliary functions that correspond to solutions to a regression or classification problem. Recent line of work on debiased machine learning shows how one can use generic mac…

Asymptotics of the Bootstrap via Stability with Applications to Inference with Model Selection

NeurIPS 2021poster

One of the most commonly used methods for forming confidence intervals is the empirical bootstrap, which is especially expedient when the limiting distribution of the estimator is unknown. However, despite its ubiquitous role in machine learning, its theoretical properties are still not well underst…

Empirical Risk Minimization and Stochastic Gradient Descent for Relational Data

AISTATS 2019poster

Empirical risk minimization is the main tool for prediction problems, but its extension to relational data remains unsolved. We solve this problem using recent ideas from graph sampling theory to (i) define an empirical risk for relational data and (ii) obtain stochastic gradients for this empirical…

Non-vacuous Generalization Bounds at the ImageNet Scale: a PAC-Bayesian Compression Approach

ICLR 2019poster

Modern neural networks are highly overparameterized, with capacity to substantially overfit to training data. Nevertheless, these networks often generalize well in practice. It has also been observed that trained networks can often be ``compressed to much smaller representations. The purpose of this…
