Latent Group Structured Multi-task Learning
In multi-task learning (MTL), we improve the performance of key machine learning algorithms by training various tasks jointly. When the number of tasks is large, modeling task structure can further refine the task relationship model. For example, often tasks can be grouped based on metadata, or via simple preprocessing steps like K-means. In this paper, we present our group structured latent-space multi-task learning model, which encourages group structured tasks defined by prior information. We use an alternating minimization method to learn the model parameters. Experiments are conducted on both synthetic and real-world datasets, showing competitive performance over single-task learning (where each group is trained separately) and other MTL baselines.

Learning Abstract World Models with a Group-Structured Latent Space
Learning meaningful abstract models of Markov Decision Processes (MDPs) is crucial for improving generalization from limited data. In this work, we show how geometric priors can be imposed on the low-dimensional represen…
Latent Space Symmetry Discovery
Equivariant neural networks require explicit knowledge of the symmetry group. Automatic symmetry discovery methods aim to relax this constraint and learn invariance and equivariance from data. However, existing symmetry …
Equation DiscoveryTiered Latent Representations and Latent Spaces for Molecular Graphs
Molecular graphs generally contain subgraphs (known as groups) that are identifiable and significant in composition, functionality, geometry, etc. Flat latent representations (node embeddings or graph embeddings) fail to…
Bayesian group latent factor analysis with structured sparsity
Latent factor models are the canonical statistical tool for exploratory analyses of low-dimensional linear structure for an observation matrix with p features across n samples. We develop a structured Bayesian group fact…

We propose a discriminative model for recognizing group activities. Our model jointly captures the group activity, the individual person actions, and the interactions among them. Two new types of contextual information, …
