Understanding collections of related datasets using dependent MMD coresets

Understanding how two datasets differ can help us determine whether one dataset under-represents certain sub-populations, and provides insights into how well models will generalize across datasets. Representative points selected by a maximum mean discrepency (MMD) coreset can provide interpretable summaries of a single dataset, but are not easily compared across datasets. In this paper we introduce dependent MMD coresets, a data summarization method for collections of datasets that facilitates comparison of distributions. We show that dependent MMD coresets are useful for understanding multiple related datasets and understanding model generalization between such datasets.
