Paper presents a framework to automatically discover constraints from data.

problem Discovering constraints from data for structured output prediction.
method Formulates structured output prediction as ILP, mines constraints by estimating polytopes of feasible set.
result Successfully identifies feasible sets and constraints for various tasks.

Pattern sampling has been proposed as a potential solution to the infamous pattern explosion. Instead of enumerating all patterns that satisfy the constraints, individual patterns are sampled proportional to a given quality measure. Several sampling algorithms have been proposed, but each of them has its limitations wh…

Biclustering techniques have been widely used to identify homogeneous subgroups within large data matrices, such as subsets of genes similarly expressed across subsets of patients. Mining a max-sum sub-matrix is a related but distinct problem for which one looks for a (non-necessarily contiguous) rectangular sub-matrix…

result Cryptocurrency price and mining rewards are intrinsically linked to blockchain security outcomes.

This paper analyzes the profitability of selfish mining on blockchain, considering the risk of ruin.

problem The profitability of selfish mining on blockchain, considering the risk of ruin.
method Formulated a stochastic model and used tools from applied probability and analysis to determine expected profit.
result Explicit expressions for expected profit under different scenarios were derived, identifying conditions for selfish mining as a strategic advantage.

Data mining is about obtaining new knowledge from existing datasets. However, the data in the existing datasets can be scattered, noisy, and even incomplete. Although lots of effort is spent on developing or fine-tuning data mining models to make them more robust to the noise of the input data, their qualities still st…

We argue that the estimation of mutual information between high dimensional continuous random variables can be achieved by gradient descent over neural networks. We present a Mutual Information Neural Estimator (MINE) that is linearly scalable in dimensionality as well as in sample size, trainable through back-prop, an…

result Bitcoin mining with surplus electricity generates economic revenue, minimizes energy loss, and resolves payment issues for KEPCO.

The problem of frequent pattern mining has been studied quite extensively for various types of data, including sets, sequences, and graphs. Somewhat surprisingly, another important type of data, namely rank data, has received very little attention in data mining so far. In this paper, we therefore addresses the problem…

Deep metric learning aims to learn a deep embedding that can capture the semantic similarity of data points. Given the availability of massive training samples, deep metric learning is known to suffer from slow convergence due to a large fraction of trivial samples. Therefore, most existing methods generally resort to …
