The paper introduces deep submodular peripteral networks (DSPNs), a novel parametric family of submodular functions, which can be trained using a GPC-based strategy to tackle the challenges of learning submodularity from oracles offering graded pairwise preferences. The method utilizes a “peripteral” loss that leverages numerically graded relationships between pairs of objects, extracting more nuanced information than binary-outcome comparisons. The paper also defines a suite of automatic sampling strategies for training, including active-learning inspired submodular feedback. DSPNs are demonstrated to be effective in learning submodularity from a costly target submodular function and superior in experimental design and online streaming applications.
Low GrooveSquid.com (original content) Low Difficulty Summary
This paper helps us understand how to learn about things that have parts or elements that can’t be easily compared, like sets of people or objects. The authors create a new way to train computers using something called “graded pairwise preferences” which is like a ranking system. They test this method and show it works better than other ways for certain tasks.
