Question and answer generation (QAG) consists of generating a set of question-answer pairs given a context (e.g. a paragraph). This task has a variety of applications, such as data augmentation for question answering (QA) models, information retrieval and education. In this paper, we establish baselines with three different QAG methodologies that leverage sequence-to-sequence language model (LM) fine-tuning. Experiments show that an end-to-end QAG model, which is computationally light at both training and inference times, is generally robust and outperforms other more convoluted approaches. However, there are differences depending on the underlying generative LM. Finally, our analysis shows that QA models fine-tuned solely on generated question-answer pairs can be competitive when compared to supervised QA models trained on human-labeled data.

In this paper, we design sub-linear space streaming algorithms for estimating three fundamental parameters -- maximum independent set, minimum dominating set and maximum matching -- on sparse graph classes, i.e., graphs which satisfy $m=O(n)$ where $m,n$ is the number of edges, vertices respectively. Each of the three graph parameters we consider can have size $\Omega(n)$ even on sparse graph classes, and hence for sublinear-space algorithms we are restricted to parameter estimation instead of attempting to find a solution.

In this paper, several row and column orthogonal projection methods are proposed for solving matrix equation $AXB=C$, where the matrix $A$ and $B$ are full rank or rank deficient and equation is consistent or not. These methods are iterative methods without matrix multiplication. It is theoretically proved these methods converge to the solution or least-squares solution of the matrix equation. Numerical results show that these methods are more efficient than iterative methods involving matrix multiplication for high-dimensional matrix.

While unsupervised skill discovery has shown promise in autonomously acquiring behavioral primitives, there is still a large methodological disconnect between task-agnostic skill pretraining and downstream, task-aware finetuning. We present Intrinsic Reward Matching (IRM), which unifies these two phases of learning via the $\textit{skill discriminator}$, a pretraining model component often discarded during finetuning. Conventional approaches finetune pretrained agents directly at the policy level, often relying on expensive environment rollouts to empirically determine the optimal skill. However, often the most concise yet complete description of a task is the reward function itself, and skill learning methods learn an $\textit{intrinsic}$ reward function via the discriminator that corresponds to the skill policy. We propose to leverage the skill discriminator to $\textit{match}$ the intrinsic and downstream task rewards and determine the optimal skill for an unseen task without environment samples, consequently finetuning with greater sample-efficiency. Furthermore, we generalize IRM to sequence skills for complex, long-horizon tasks and demonstrate that IRM enables us to utilize pretrained skills far more effectively than previous skill selection methods on both the Fetch tabletop and Franka Kitchen robot manipulation benchmarks.

When machine learning models are trained continually on a sequence of tasks, they are liable to forget what they learned on previous tasks -- a phenomenon known as catastrophic forgetting. Proposed solutions to catastrophic forgetting tend to involve storing information about past tasks, meaning that memory usage is a chief consideration in determining their practicality. This paper proposes a memory-efficient solution to catastrophic forgetting, improving upon an established algorithm known as orthogonal gradient descent (OGD). OGD utilizes prior model gradients to find weight updates that preserve performance on prior datapoints. However, since the memory cost of storing prior model gradients grows with the runtime of the algorithm, OGD is ill-suited to continual learning over arbitrarily long time horizons. To address this problem, this paper proposes SketchOGD. SketchOGD employs an online sketching algorithm to compress model gradients as they are encountered into a matrix of a fixed, user-determined size. In contrast to existing memory-efficient variants of OGD, SketchOGD runs online without the need for advance knowledge of the total number of tasks, is simple to implement, and is more amenable to analysis. We provide theoretical guarantees on the approximation error of the relevant sketches under a novel metric suited to the downstream task of OGD. Experimentally, we find that SketchOGD tends to outperform current state-of-the-art variants of OGD given a fixed memory budget.

It is well-known that real-world changes constituting distribution shift adversely affect model performance. How to characterize those changes in an interpretable manner is poorly understood. Existing techniques to address this problem take the form of shift explanations that elucidate how to map samples from the original distribution toward the shifted one by reducing the disparity between these two distributions. However, these methods can introduce group irregularities, leading to explanations that are less feasible and robust. To address these issues, we propose Group-aware Shift Explanations (GSE), a method that produces interpretable explanations by leveraging worst-group optimization to rectify group irregularities. We demonstrate how GSE not only maintains group structures, such as demographic and hierarchical subpopulations, but also enhances feasibility and robustness in the resulting explanations in a wide range of tabular, language, and image settings.

We introduce two new particle-based algorithms for learning latent variable models via marginal maximum likelihood estimation, including one which is entirely tuning-free. Our methods are based on the perspective of marginal maximum likelihood estimation as an optimization problem: namely, as the minimization of a free energy functional. One way to solve this problem is to consider the discretization of a gradient flow associated with the free energy. We study one such approach, which resembles an extension of the popular Stein variational gradient descent algorithm. In particular, we establish a descent lemma for this algorithm, which guarantees that the free energy decreases at each iteration. This method, and any other obtained as the discretization of the gradient flow, will necessarily depend on a learning rate which must be carefully tuned by the practitioner in order to ensure convergence at a suitable rate. With this in mind, we also propose another algorithm for optimizing the free energy which is entirely learning rate free, based on coin betting techniques from convex optimization. We validate the performance of our algorithms across a broad range of numerical experiments, including several high-dimensional settings. Our results are competitive with existing particle-based methods, without the need for any hyperparameter tuning.

Neural networks have in recent years shown promise for helping software engineers write programs and even formally verify them. While semantic information plays a crucial part in these processes, it remains unclear to what degree popular neural architectures like transformers are capable of modeling that information. This paper examines the behavior of neural networks learning algorithms relevant to programs and formal verification proofs through the lens of mechanistic interpretability, focusing in particular on structural recursion. Structural recursion is at the heart of tasks on which symbolic tools currently outperform neural models, like inferring semantic relations between datatypes and emulating program behavior. We evaluate the ability of transformer models to learn to emulate the behavior of structurally recursive functions from input-output examples. Our evaluation includes empirical and conceptual analyses of the limitations and capabilities of transformer models in approximating these functions, as well as reconstructions of the ``shortcut" algorithms the model learns. By reconstructing these algorithms, we are able to correctly predict 91 percent of failure cases for one of the approximated functions. Our work provides a new foundation for understanding the behavior of neural networks that fail to solve the very tasks they are trained for.

Hypergeometric sequences are rational-valued sequences that satisfy first-order linear recurrence relations with polynomial coefficients; that is, a hypergeometric sequence $\langle u_n \rangle_{n=0}^{\infty}$ is one that satisfies a recurrence of the form $f(n)u_n = g(n)u_{n-1}$ where $f,g \in \mathbb{Z}[x]$. In this paper, we consider the Membership Problem for hypergeometric sequences: given a hypergeometric sequence $\langle u_n \rangle_{n=0}^{\infty}$ and a target value $t\in \mathbb{Q}$, determine whether $u_n=t$ for some index $n$. We establish decidability of the Membership Problem under the assumption that either (i) $f$ and $g$ have distinct splitting fields or (ii) $f$ and $g$ are monic polynomials that both split over a quadratic extension of $\mathbb{Q}$. Our results are based on an analysis of the prime divisors of polynomial sequences $\langle f(n) \rangle_{n=1}^\infty$ and $\langle g(n) \rangle_{n=1}^\infty$ appearing in the recurrence relation.

We present a new method to learn video representations from large-scale unlabeled video data. Ideally, this representation will be generic and transferable, directly usable for new tasks such as action recognition and zero or few-shot learning. We formulate unsupervised representation learning as a multi-modal, multi-task learning problem, where the representations are shared across different modalities via distillation. Further, we introduce the concept of loss function evolution by using an evolutionary search algorithm to automatically find optimal combination of loss functions capturing many (self-supervised) tasks and modalities. Thirdly, we propose an unsupervised representation evaluation metric using distribution matching to a large unlabeled dataset as a prior constraint, based on Zipf's law. This unsupervised constraint, which is not guided by any labeling, produces similar results to weakly-supervised, task-specific ones. The proposed unsupervised representation learning results in a single RGB network and outperforms previous methods. Notably, it is also more effective than several label-based methods (e.g., ImageNet), with the exception of large, fully labeled video datasets.
