• Authors: Teodora Popordanoska, Mohit Kumar, Stefano Teso
• Abstract summary: We introduce explanatory guided learning (XGL), a novel interactive learning strategy. XGL is designed to be robust against cases in which the explanations supplied by the machine oversell the classifier's quality. By drawing a link to interactive machine teaching, we show theoretically that global explanations are a viable approach for guiding supervisors.

• Abstract: We introduce explanatory guided learning (XGL), a novel interactive learning strategy in which a machine guides a human supervisor toward selecting informative examples for a classifier. The guidance is provided by means of global explanations, which summarize the classifier's behavior on different regions of the instance space and expose its flaws. Compared to other explanatory interactive learning strategies, which are machine-initiated and rely on local explanations, XGL is designed to be robust against cases in which the explanations supplied by the machine oversell the classifier's quality. Moreover, XGL leverages global explanations to open up the black-box of human-initiated interaction, enabling supervisors to select informative examples that challenge the learned model. By drawing a link to interactive machine teaching, we show theoretically that global explanations are a viable approach for guiding supervisors. Our simulations show that explanatory guided learning avoids overselling the model's quality and performs comparably or better than machine- and human-initiated interactive learning strategies in terms of model quality.

  We take a closer look into existing self-supervised methods of speech from an information-theoretic perspective. We use linear probes to estimate the mutual information between the target information and learned representations. We explore the potential of evaluating representations in a self-supervised fashion, where we estimate the mutual information between different parts of the data without using any labels.
