When analyzing robustness of predictive models under distribution shift, many works focus on tackling generalization in the presence of spurious correlations. In this case, one typically makes use of covariates or environment indicators to enforce independencies in learned models to guarantee generalization under various distribution shifts. In this work, we analyze a class of distribution shifts, where such independencies are not desirable, as…Apple Machine Learning Research
