Large language models (LLMs) encode vast amounts of world knowledge. However, since these models are trained on large swaths of internet data, they are at risk of inordinately capturing information about dominant groups. This imbalance can propagate into generated language. In this work, we study an…
Data augmentation is often used to incorporate inductive biases into models. Traditionally, these are hand-crafted and tuned with cross validation. The Bayesian paradigm for model selection provides a path towards end-to-end learning of invariances using only the training data, by optimising the mar…
Spatial Transformer Networks (STNs) estimate image transformations that can improve downstream tasks by ‘zooming in’ on relevant regions in an image. However, STNs are hard to train and sensitive to mis-predictions of transformations. To circumvent these limitations, we propose a probabilistic exten…
