The Shapley value is one of the most important normative division scheme in cooperative game theory, satisfying basic axioms. However, some allocation according to the Shapley value may seem unfair to humans.
In this paper, we develop an automatic method that generates intuitive explanations for a Shapley-based payoff allocation, which utilizes the basic axioms. Given a coalitional game, our method decomposes it to sub-games, for which it is easy to generate verbal explanations, and shows that the given game is composed of the sub-games. Since the payoff allocation for each sub-game is perceived as fair, the Shapley-based payoff allocation for the given game should seem fair as well.
We run an experiment with 210 human participants and show that when applying our method, humans perceive Shapley-based payoff allocation as significantly more fair than when using a general standard explanation.

The purpose of the AAAI conference is to promote research in artificial intelligence (AI) and scientific exchange among AI researchers, practitioners, scientists, and engineers in affiliated disciplines. 

Deep representation learning has succeeded in several fields. However, pre-trained deep representations are usually biased and make downstream models sensitive to different attributes. In this work, we propose a post-processing unsupervised deep representation debiasing algorithm, DeepMinMax, which can obtain unbiased representations directly from pre-trained representations without re-training or fine-tuning the entire model. The experimental results on synthetic and real-world datasets indicate that DeepMinMax outperforms the existing state-of-the-art algorithms on downstream tasks.

This abstract proposes an approach towards goal-oriented modeling of the detection and modeling complex social phenomena in multiparty discourse in an online political strategy game.
We developed a two-tier approach that first encodes sociolinguistic behavior as linguistic features then use reinforcement learning to estimate the advantage afforded to any player. 
In the first tier, sociolinguistic behavior, such as Friendship and Reasoning, that speakers use to influence others are encoded as linguistic features to identify the persuasive strategies applied by each player in simultaneous two-party dialogues. In the second tier, a reinforcement learning approach is used to estimate a graph-aware reward function to quantify the advantage afforded to each player based on their standing in this multiparty setup. We apply this technique to the game Diplomacy, using a dataset comprising of over 15,000 messages exchanged between 78 users. Our graph-aware approach shows robust performance compared to a context-agnostic setup.

Using Graph-Aware Reinforcement Learning to Identify Winning Strategies in Diplomacy Games (Student Abstract)

In real-world applications of natural language generation, target sentences are often required to satisfy some lexical constraints. However, the success of most neural-based models relies heavily on data, which is infeasible for data-scarce new domains. In this work, we present FewShotAmazon, the first benchmark for the task of Constrained Text Generation under few-shot settings on multiple domains. Further, we propose the Switch-GPT model, in which we utilize the strong language modeling capacity of GPT-2 to generate fluent and well-formulated sentences, while using a light attention module to decide which constraint to attend to at each step. Experiments show that the proposed Switch-GPT model is effective and remarkably outperforms the baselines. Codes will be available at https://github.com/chang-github-00/Switch-GPT.

Switch-GPT: An Effective Method for Constrained Text Generation under Few-Shot Settings (Student Abstract)

We study the problem of predicting the influence of a user in spreading fake (or real) news on social media. We propose a new model to address this problem which takes into account both user and tweet characteristics. We show that our model achieves an F1 score of 0.853, resp. 0.931, at predicting the influence of fake, resp. real, news spreaders, and outperforms existing baselines. We also investigate important features at predicting the influence of real vs. fake news spreaders.

Machine learning systems based on minimizing average error have been shown to perform inconsistently across notable subsets of the data, which is not exposed by a low average error for the entire dataset. In consequential social and economic applications, where data represent people, this can lead to discrimination of underrepresented gender and ethnic groups. Distributionally Robust Optimization (DRO) seemingly addresses this problem by minimizing the worst expected risk across subpopulations. We establish theoretical results that clarify the relation between DRO and the optimization of the same loss averaged on an adequately weighted training dataset. A practical implication of our results is that neither DRO nor curating the training set should be construed as a complete solution for bias mitigation.

On the Relation between Distributionally Robust Optimization and Data Curation (Student Abstract)

This paper studies the over-parameterization of deep neural networks using the Fisher Information Matrix from information geometry. We identify several surprising trends in the structure of its eigenspectrum, and how this structure relates to the eigenspectrum of the data correlation matrix. We identify how the eigenspectrum relates to the topology of the predictions of the model and develop a "model reduction'' method for deep networks. This ongoing investigation hypothesizes certain universal trends in the FIM of deep networks that may shed light on their effectiveness.

Does the Geometry of the Data Control the Geometry of Neural Predictions? (Student Abstract)

We present a method for constructing synthetic datasets of Competency Questions translated into SPARQL-OWL queries. This method is used to generate BigCQ, the largest set of CQ patterns and SPARQL-OWL templates that can provide translation examples to automate assessing the completeness and correctness of ontologies.

Deep learning is a promising avenue to automate tedious analysis tasks in biomedical imaging. However, its application in such a context is limited by the large amount of labeled data required to train deep learning models. While active learning may be used to reduce the amount of labeling data, many approaches do not consider the cost of annotating, which is often significant in a biomedical imaging setting. In this work we show how annotation cost can be considered and learned during active learning on a classification task on the MNIST dataset.

Annotation Cost-Sensitive Deep Active Learning with Limited Data (Student Abstract)

Sampling of chordal graphs and various types of acyclic orientations over chordal graphs plays a central role in several AI applications such as causal structure learning. For a given undirected graph, an acyclic orientation is an assignment of directions to all of its edges which makes the resulting directed graph cycle-free. Sampling is often closely related to the corresponding counting problem. Counting of acyclic orientations of a given chordal graph can be done in polynomial time, but the previously known techniques do not seem to lead to a corresponding (efficient) sampler. In this work, we propose a dynamic programming framework which yields a counter and a uniform sampler, both of which run in (essentially) linear time. An interesting feature of our sampler is that it is a stand-alone algorithm that, unlike other DP-based samplers, does not need any preprocessing which determines the corresponding counts.

Sampling and Counting Acyclic Orientations in Chordal Graphs (Student Abstract)

Few-shot relation learning refers to infer facts for relations with a few observed triples. Existing metric-learning methods mostly neglect entity interactions within and between triples. In this paper, we explore this kind of fine-grained semantic meaning and propose our model TransAM. Specifically, we serialize reference entities and query entities into sequence and apply transformer structure with local-global attention to capture intra- and inter-triple entity interactions. Experiments on two public datasets with 1-shot setting prove the effectiveness of TransAM.
