Addressing Discrepancies in Semantic and Visual Alignment in Neural Networks

no code implementations1 Jun 2023 Natalie Abreu, Nathan Vaska, Victoria Helus

We evaluate whether the method increases semantic alignment by evaluating model performance on adversarially perturbed data, with the idea that it should be easier for an adversary to switch one class to a similarly represented class.

Evaluating the Capabilities of Multi-modal Reasoning Models with Synthetic Task Data

no code implementations1 Jun 2023 Nathan Vaska, Victoria Helus

The impressive advances and applications of large language and joint language-and-visual understanding models has led to an increased need for methods of probing their potential reasoning capabilities.

Addressing Mistake Severity in Neural Networks with Semantic Knowledge

no code implementations21 Nov 2022 Natalie Abreu, Nathan Vaska, Victoria Helus

Most robust training techniques aim to improve model accuracy on perturbed inputs; as an alternate form of robustness, we aim to reduce the severity of mistakes made by neural networks in challenging conditions.

A Computational Interface to Translate Strategic Intent from Unstructured Language in a Low-Data Setting

1 code implementation17 Aug 2022 Pradyumna Tambwekar, Lakshita Dodeja, Nathan Vaska, Wei Xu, Matthew Gombolay

Leveraging a game environment, we collect a dataset of over 1000 examples, mapping language strategies to the corresponding goals and constraints, and show that our model, trained on this dataset, significantly outperforms human interpreters in inferring strategic intent (i. e., goals and constraints) from language (p < 0. 05).
