Neat work combining ideas from formal methods, stable control policies, and imitation learning!

How to guarantee successful imitation of multi-step tasks despite arbitrary perturbations? 1-2 demos + a logic formula of task specification. See our #CoRL2022 oral talk today at 4:30p! Paper: yanweiw.github.io/tli (with @robo_kween @shenli_robotics @ankitjs @julie_a_shah)

Before everyone flees twitter... new paper coming out at NeurIPS! Humans compress meanings into complexity limited discrete representations (words). Can neural nets learn similar communication? Yes! (1/7)

Super grateful for this chance to continue exciting *interdisciplinary* research. Thanks to my advisor, @julie_a_shah, but also so many collaborators from other departments (@roger_p_levy and @NogaZaslavsky) and inspiring labmates and researchers.

Amazon and @MIT_SCC announced their first set of Amazon Fellows as part of their Science Hub, which aims to expand participation in AI, robotics, and other fields. They will receive funding to conduct independent research projects at MIT. Meet the fellows. #MachineLearning

New journal paper on Latent Space Alignment! Neural agents learn latent representations spaces, but often each agent learns its own idiosyncratic space. How can we align those space among agents or even with humans? tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.10…

Happy to announce... Well, this paper didn't get in, but I still think it's neat. Using the same probe-based method for testing if language models use representations of syntax, we can "fix" RL agent perception (e.g., notice an oncoming car): arxiv.org/abs/2201.12938

It's Monday morning, which means it's the perfect time to start thinking about information theory, brains, and neural nets! Submit to #InfoCog2022 @NeurIPSConf Organized by @NogaZaslavsky @gershbrain @sepalmerNeuro @C4COMPUTATION sites.google.com/view/infocog-n…

New paper (to appear in ICML)! Using a new prototype-based classifier, we show how notions of fair and hierarchical classification are tightly related, and how we can directly control "concept relationships" to switch between modes.
