Conformal Prediction via Regression-as-Classification
Conformal prediction (CP) for regression can be challenging, especially when the output distribution is heteroscedastic, multimodal, or skewed. Some of the issues can be addressed by estimating a distribution over the output, but in reality, such approaches can be sensitive to estimation error and yield unstable intervals. Here, we circumvent the challenges by converting regression …

What you need to know about the CCPA rules on AI and automated decision-making technology
In November 2023, the California Privacy Protection Agency (CPPA) released a set of draft regulations on the use of artificial intelligence (AI) and automated decision-making technology (ADMT). The proposed rules are still in development, but organizations may want to pay close attention to their evolution. Because the state is home to many of the world’s …
Simplifying data modeling and schema generation in BigQuery using multi-modal LLMs
The intricate hierarchical data structures in data warehouses and lakes sourced from diverse origins can make data modeling a protracted and error-prone process. To quickly adapt and create data models that meet evolving business requirements without having to rework them excessively, you need data models that are flexible, modular and adaptable enough to accommodate many …

Poly-View Contrastive Learning
Contrastive learning typically matches pairs of related views among a number of unrelated negative views. Views can be generated (e.g. by augmentations) or be observed. We investigate matching when there are more than two related views which we call poly-view tasks, and derive new representation learning objectives using information maximization and sufficient statistics. We show …

When can transformers reason with abstract symbols?
We investigate the capabilities of transformer models on relational reasoning tasks. In these tasks, models are trained on a set of strings encoding abstract relations, and are then tested out-of-distribution on data that contains symbols that did not appear in the training dataset. We prove that for any relational reasoning task in a large family …
