Conformally variational Riemannian invariants (CVIs), such as the scalar curvature, are homogeneous scalar invariants which arise as the gradient of a Riemannian functional. We establish a wide range of stability and rigidity results involving CVIs, generalizing many such results for the scalar curvature.

CPA framework assesses conditional validity of conformal prediction.
problem Challenges in evaluating conditional validity of conformal prediction.
method Reframes conditional coverage evaluation as a supervised learning task.
result Establishes convergence rates and proves CVI consistency.
Group factor analysis (GFA) methods have been widely used to infer the common structure and the group-specific signals from multiple related datasets in various fields including systems biology and neuroimaging. To date, most available GFA models require Gibbs sampling or slice sampling to perform inference, which prev…

problem Selecting clustering algorithms and hyperparameters without labeled data.
method CDL uses compactness, centers, and covariances to compute a probabilistic description length bound.
result CDL outperforms conventional CVIs on synthetic and image benchmarks.
It has been noticed that some external CVIs exhibit a preferential bias towards a larger or smaller number of clusters which is monotonic (directly or inversely) in the number of clusters in candidate partitions. This type of bias is caused by the functional form of the CVI model. For example, the popular Rand index (R…

result Correctly identifies touching or overlapping classes that do not correspond to meaningful density-based clusters.
Evaluating data separation in a geometrical space is fundamental for pattern recognition. A plethora of dimensionality reduction (DR) algorithms have been developed in order to reveal the emergence of geometrical patterns in a low dimensional visible representation space, in which high-dimensional samples similarities …

We introduce the notion of formally self-adjoint conformally covariant polydifferential operators and give some constructions of families of such operators. In one direction, we show that any homogeneous conformally variational scalar Riemannian invariant (CVI) induces one of these operators. In another direction, we u…

method Integrates adaptive resonance theory (ARTMAP) with incremental cluster validity indices (iCVIs) for clustering.
result Significantly reduces clustering time and outperforms other methods on synthetic and real-world data.
Extracting common narratives from multi-author dynamic text corpora requires complex models, such as the Dynamic Author Persona (DAP) topic model. However, such models are complex and can struggle to scale to large corpora, often because of challenging non-conjugate terms. To overcome such challenges, in this paper we …

SGD (Stochastic Gradient Descent) is a popular algorithm for large scale optimization problems due to its low iterative cost. However, SGD can not achieve linear convergence rate as FGD (Full Gradient Descent) because of the inherent gradient variance. To attack the problem, mini-batch SGD was proposed to get a trade-o…
