• Abstract: Human Pose (HP) estimation is actively researched because of its wide range of applications. However, even estimators pre-trained on large datasets may not perform satisfactorily due to a domain gap between the training and test data. To address this issue, we present our approach combining Active Learning (AL) and Transfer Learning (TL) to adapt HP estimators to individual video domains efficiently. For efficient learning, our approach quantifies (i) the estimation uncertainty based on the temporal changes in the estimated heatmaps and (ii) the unnaturalness in the estimated full-body HPs. These quantified criteria are then effectively combined with the state-of-the-art representativeness criterion to select uncertain and diverse samples for efficient HP estimator learning. Furthermore, we reconsider the existing Active Transfer Learning (ATL) method to introduce novel ideas related to the retraining methods and Stopping Criteria (SC). Experimental results demonstrate that our method enhances learning efficiency and outperforms comparative methods.

  Training data attribution methods aim to quantify the influence of individual data points on model predictions, with broad applications in data-centric AI. Existing methods in this field, which can be categorized as retraining-based and gradient-based methods, have struggled with naive trade-off attribution efficacy. Recent research has shown that augmenting gradient-based methods with ensembles of multiple independently trained models can achieve significantly better attribution.

  We propose a meta-learner called the B-Learner, which can efficiently learn sharp bounds on the CATE function under limits on hidden confounding. We prove its estimates are valid, sharp, efficient, and have a quasi-oracle property with respect to the constituent estimators under more general conditions than existing methods.

  Selective prediction aims to learn a reliable model that abstains from making predictions when uncertain. Active learning aims to lower the overall labeling effort, and hence human dependence, by querying the most informative examples. In this work, we introduce a new learning paradigm, active selective prediction, which aims to query more informative samples from the shifted target domain.

  In imitation learning from observation IfO, a learning agent seeks to imitate a demonstrating agent using only observations of the demonstrated behavior without access to the control signals generated by the demonstrator. Recent methods based on adversarial imitation learning have led to state-of-the-art performance on IfO problems, but they typically suffer from high sample complexity due to a reliance on data-inefficient, model-free reinforcement learning algorithms. This issue makes them impractical to deploy in real-world settings, where gathering samples can incur high costs in terms of time, energy, and risk. We propose a more data-efficient IfO algorithm
