• Abstract summary: We introduce an estimator for the problem of multiple connected linear regressions known as Data Enrichment/Sharing. We show that the recovery of the common parameter benefits from emphall of the pooled samples. Overall, we present a first thorough statistical and computational analysis of inference in the data-sharing model.

• Abstract: We consider the problem of multi-task learning in the high dimensional setting. In particular, we introduce an estimator and investigate its statistical and computational properties for the problem of multiple connected linear regressions known as Data Enrichment/Sharing. The between-tasks connections are captured by a cross-tasks \emph{common parameter}, which gets refined by per-task \emph{individual parameters}. Any convex function, e.g., norm, can characterize the structure of both common and individual parameters. We delineate the sample complexity of our estimator and provide a high probability non-asymptotic bound for estimation error of all parameters under a geometric condition. We show that the recovery of the common parameter benefits from \emph{all} of the pooled samples. We propose an iterative estimation algorithm with a geometric convergence rate and supplement our theoretical analysis with experiments on synthetic data. Overall, we present a first thorough statistical and computational analysis of inference in the data-sharing model.

  We derive a likelihood characterisation for the overall data that leads us to extend a previous EM-based algorithm. The new algorithm learns to approximate the (unidentifiability) region of model parameters from such mixed data sources. It delivers interval approximations to counterfactual results, which collapse to points in the identifiable case.

  A framework of outlier-resistant estimation is introduced to robustify arbitrarily loss function. A new technique is proposed to alleviate the requirement on starting point such that on regular datasets the number of data reestimations can be substantially reduced. The obtained estimators, though not necessarily globally or even globally, enjoymax optimality in both low dimensions.

  We analyze a corpus of models made publicly-available for a contest to predict the generalization accuracy of neural network (NN) models. We identify what amounts to a Simpson's paradox: where "scale" metrics perform well overall but perform poorly on sub partitions of the data. We present two novel shape metrics, one data-independent, and the other data-dependent, which can predict trends in the test accuracy of a series of NNs.

  We consider the bipartite graph and formalize its representation learning problem as a statistical estimation problem of parameters in a semiparametric exponential family distribution. We show that the proposed objective is strongly convex in a neighborhood around the ground truth, so that a gradient descent-based method achieves linear convergence rate. Our estimator is robust to any model misspecification within the exponential family, which is validated in extensive experiments.
