SUMMARY:FDS Special Seminar: Orr Paradise (Berkeley)\, "Models that prove t
 heir own correctness"
DESCRIPTION:\nAbstract: This talk introduces Self-Proving models\, a new cl
 ass of models that formally prove the correctness of their outputs via an 
 Interactive Proof system. After reviewing some related literature\, I will
  formally define Self-Proving models and their per-input (worst-case) guar
 antees. I will then present algorithms for learning these models and expla
 in how the complexity of the proof system affects the complexity of the le
 arning algorithms. Finally\, I will show experiments where Self-Proving mo
 dels are trained to compute the Greatest Common Divisor of two integers\, 
 and to prove the correctness of their results to a simple verifier. No pri
 or knowledge of autoregressive models or Interactive Proofs will be assume
 d of the listener. This is a joint work with Noga Amit\, Shafi Goldwasser\
 , and Guy Rothblum.\n\n\n\nSpeaker bio: Orr Paradise is a PhD student in t
 he Theory of Computation group at UC Berkeley\, where he is advised by Sha
 fi Goldwasser and Avishay Tal. Before this\, he completed his MSc at the W
 eizmann Institute of Science under the supervision of Oded Goldreich. His 
 research focuses on theoretical computer science and algorithmic analysis.
  Beyond academia\, Orr works with CETI\, a nonprofit dedicated to decipher
 ing sperm whale communication\, where he contributes theoretical analysis.
  He also serves as Head TA at JamCoders\, a free summer camp that teaches 
 algorithms to high school students in Kingston\, Jamaica.\n\n\n\nWebsite:
