• Abstract: In this study, we propose a machine learning method called Distributionally Robust Safe Sample Screening (DRSSS). DRSSS aims to identify unnecessary training samples, even when the distribution of the training samples changes in the future. To achieve this, we effectively combine the distributionally robust (DR) paradigm, which aims to enhance model robustness against variations in data distribution, with the safe sample screening (SSS), which identifies unnecessary training samples prior to model training. Since we need to consider an infinite number of scenarios regarding changes in the distribution, we applied SSS because it does not require model training after the change of the distribution. In this paper, we employed the covariate shift framework to represent the distribution of training samples and reformulated the DR covariate-shift problem as a weighted empirical risk minimization problem, where the weights are subject to uncertainty within a predetermined range. By extending the existing SSS technique to accommodate this weight uncertainty, the DRSSS method is capable of reliably identifying unnecessary samples under any future distribution within a specified range. We provide a theoretical guarantee for the DRSSS method and validate its performance through numerical experiments on both synthetic and real-world datasets.

  Implicit generative models have the capability to learn arbitrary complex data distributions. On the downside, training requires telling apart real data from artificially-generated ones using adversarial discriminators. We develop a discriminator-free method for training one-dimensional (1D) generative implicit models.

  Fine-tuning pretrained models on specific tasks is now the de facto approach for text and vision tasks. A known pitfall of this approach is the forgetting of pretraining knowledge that happens during finetuning. We propose a novel sampling scheme, mix-cd, that identifies and prioritizes samples that actually face forgetting.

• Invariant Anomaly Detection under Distribution Shifts: A Causal Perspective [6.845698872290768]
  Anomaly detection (AD) is the machine learning task of identifying highly discrepant abnormal samples. Under the constraints of a distribution shift, the assumption that training samples and test samples are drawn from the same distribution breaks down. We attempt to increase the resilience of anomaly detection models to different kinds of distribution shifts.

  The application of machine learning models can be significantly impeded by the occurrence of distributional shifts. One way to tackle this problem is to use invariant learning, such as invariant risk minimization (IRM), to acquire an invariant representation. This paper develops methods for obtaining distribution-free prediction regions to describe uncertainty estimates for invariant representations.

  We study sample average approximations (SAA) of chance constrained programs. We consider a nonstationary variant of this problem, where the random samples are assumed to be independently drawn in a sequential fashion. We propose a novel robust SAA method exploiting information about the Wasserstein distance between the sequence of data-generating distributions and the actual chance constraint distribution.
