New Robustness Mechanism Learns Parameters via Bilevel Optimization

Researchers have developed a new distributionally robust learning framework that learns parameters for a robustness mechanism from held-out data, rather than relying on extensive tuning. This approach utilizes bilevel optimization, incorporating both upper and lower level minimax problems, to address scenarios with and without group labels in the training set. The framework offers theoretical generalization guarantees comparable to grid search but with improved computational efficiency, and has been empirically validated under significant distribution shifts.

    Learning the Robustness Mechanism with Bilevel Optimization

    We propose a distributionally robust learning framework where parameters defining the robustness mechanism are learned from held-out data instead of extensively tuned. Using bilevel optimization with both upper and lower level minimax problems, we create two instances of our fram…
