Machine Learning
Bareinboim will develop a new framework that will lead to more efficient and robust decision-making; Kroer will develop new algorithms based on game theory to solve real-world problems with multiple actors.
Professor David Blei, with co-authors Matthew Hoffman and Francis Bach, is recognized with a Test of Time Award at NeurIPS, the world’s top machine learning conference, for scaling his topic modeling algorithm to billions of documents.
Teaching AI to distinguish between causation and correlation would be a game changer— well, the game may be about to change.
About
The group does research on foundational aspects of machine learning — including causal inference, probabilistic modeling, and sequential decision making — as well as on applications in computational biology, computer vision, natural language and spoken language processing, and robotics.
It is part of a broader machine learning community at Columbia that spans multiple departments, schools, and institutes. Activities include seminars on statistical machine learning, several student-led reading groups and social hours, and participation in local events such as the New York Academy of Sciences Machine Learning Symposium.
