• Abstract: Finite Mixture Regression (FMR) refers to the mixture modeling scheme which learns multiple regression models from the training data set. Each of them is in charge of a subset. FMR is an effective scheme for handling sample heterogeneity, where a single regression model is not enough for capturing the complexities of the conditional distribution of the observed samples given the features. In this paper, we propose an FMR model that 1) finds sample clusters and jointly models multiple incomplete mixed-type targets simultaneously, 2) achieves shared feature selection among tasks and cluster components, and 3) detects anomaly tasks or clustered structure among tasks, and accommodates outlier samples. We provide non-asymptotic oracle performance bounds for our model under a high-dimensional learning framework. The proposed model is evaluated on both synthetic and real-world data sets. The results show that our model can achieve state-of-the-art performance.

  Ablation Based Counterfactuals (ABC) is a method of performing counterfactual analysis that relies on model ablation rather than model retraining. We demonstrate how we can construct a model like this using an ensemble of diffusion models. We then use this model to study the limits of training data attribution by enumerating full counterfactual landscapes.

  Data-Free Meta-Learning (DFML) aims to derive knowledge from a collection of pre-trained models without accessing their original data. Current methods often overlook the heterogeneity among pre-trained models, which leads to performance degradation due to task conflicts. We propose Task Groupings Regularization, a novel approach that benefits from model heterogeneity by grouping and aligning conflicting tasks.

  Multi-task learning (MTL) compresses the information from multiple tasks into a unified backbone to improve computational efficiency and generalization. Recent work directly merges multiple independently trained models to perform MTL instead of collecting their raw data for joint training. By visualizing the representation distribution of existing model merging schemes, we find that the merged model often suffers from the dilemma of representation bias.

  We show how a new model, similar to a logistic regression, may be learned from aggregated data only by approximating the unobserved feature distribution with a maximum entropy hypothesis. We present empirical evidence on several public datasets that the model learned this way can achieve performances comparable to those of a logistic model trained with the full unaggregated data.
