Out of distribution generalization
Supervised learning typically requires test data being drawn from the same distribution as the training data. This assumption does not hold in many real-world settings. As an example, consider a model trained in one hospital and used in another. In such a setting, the test distribution is related to the training distribution, but they are not the same, and models need to generalize out of distribution. In this talk, I will discuss our work on representation learning for out of distribution generalization. I will construct a family of representations that generalize under changing spurious correlations with applications to images and chest X-rays. Additionally, I will go into some geometric aspects of generalization.
