He tragically lost his life in a train crash that occurred on September 12\, 2008 in Chatsworth\, California. The Mathematical Sciences Department at CMC fondly remembers Atul as someone who was equally excited by the power of mathematical abstraction and the possibilities for its applications. \nIn memory of Atul\, the CMC Mathematical Sciences Department hosts a yearly lecture series\, aimed at a general audience\, on the Creative Application of Abstract Mathematical Ideas. \nA brief reception will take place prior to the talk at 4:00 PM \nFor more details\, please see the attached Flyer \nSpeaker: R. Teal Witter\, Assistant Professor of Mathematical and Computer Science\, CMC \nTitle: Estimating Shapley Values for Explainable AI via Richer Model Approximations \nAbstract: Gradient descent is at the heart of modern machine learning: We iteratively update the weights of machine learning models to minimize a problem-specific loss. When it works well\, we deploy the model in human-facing domains like healthcare\, finance\, or the justice system. But even though we know how models are trained\, we don’t understand why they make the decisions they do. A particularly compelling approach to explaining AI predictions is the Shapley value\, a game-theoretic quantity that measures how each input to the model affects its output. Mathematically\, the i-th Shapley value is the average change in the i-th dimension of a particular function defined on the d-dimensional hypercube. Because the hypercube has 2^d points\, exactly computing Shapley values is infeasible. In this talk\, we will instead leverage algorithmic insights to develop state-of-the-art approximation methods.

In this work\, we introduce a novel method\, causal distillation trees (CDT)\, to estimate interpretable subgroups. CDT allows researchers to fit any machine learning model of their choice to estimate the individual-level treatment effect\, and then leverages a simple\, second-stage tree-based model to “distill” the estimated treatment effect into meaningful subgroups. As a result\, CDT inherits the improvements in predictive performance from black-box machine learning models while preserving the interpretability of a simple decision tree. We derive theoretical guarantees for the consistency of the estimated subgroups using CDT\, and introduce stability-driven diagnostics for researchers to evaluate the quality of the estimated subgroups. We illustrate our proposed method on a randomized controlled trial of antiretroviral treatment for HIV from the AIDS Clinical Trials Group Study 175 and show that CDT out-performs state-of-the-art approaches in constructing stable\, clinically relevant subgroups. \nBio: Ana Maria Kenney is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Statistics at UC Irvine. She works at the interface of statistics\, interpretable machine learning\, and large-scale optimization to advance biomedical research. She has been on several interdisciplinary teams across institutions spanning cardiovascular genetics\, “Omics” contributions to early infant growth\, and early cancer screening. She completed a postdoc at UC Berkeley and previously received a dual title Ph.D. at Penn State in Statistics and Operations Research. There she was a Biomedical Big Data to Knowledge Training Fellow and Alfred P. Sloan Ph.D. Scholar.

It juxtaposes the stories of two women trying to find their place in a white male-dominated academic world. The first is of historical Russian mathematician Sofia Kovalevskaya\, who was lauded as a pioneer for women in science but only after years of struggle for recognition. Her life’s journey is told through music and movement\, in both Russian and English. The second is of a fictional Asian-American woman\, known only as “Professor”\, trying to cope with the prejudice she faces in the present. As she teaches an introductory real analysis class\, she uses mathematical concepts to draw parallels to the race and gender conflicts she encounters in society today. \nSee https://www.corrineyap.com/uniformconvergence/ for more information about the play.

We will focus on the behavior of the stationary solutions\, their local unstable manifolds and the attractors. \nWe will consider “regular” perturbations of the domain\, that is\, perturbations for which the spectra of the Laplace operator behaves continuously. In this case\, it turns out that if all the equilibria of the unperturbed system are nondegenerate (hyperbolic)\, then both the equilibria and their local unstable manifolds behave continuously under the perturbation. Exploiting the gradient properties of the flow we will show that the “attractors” also behave continuously. \nWe may also consider some “non-regular” perturbations of the domain. In this situation\, the problem needs to be studied and the technique adapted for each particular case. An interesting example of non regular perturbations is the “dumbbell domain” which consists in two domains joined by a very thin channel which degenerates to a line segment. We will describe the results obtained for this perturbation.
