SX-GeoTree improves spatially coherent explanations in geospatial regression trees.
problem Capturing spatial dependence and producing robust explanations in tabular prediction models.
method Integrates three objectives: impurity reduction, spatial residual control, and explanation robustness via modularity maximization on a consensus similarity network.
result Improves residual spatial evenness and doubles attribution consensus (modularity: Fujian 0.19 vs 0.09; Seattle 0.10 vs 0.05).
There are some similarities between cohomology of SU(2)-representation varieties of the fundamental group of some link complements and the Khovanov homology of the links. We start here a program to explain a possible source of these similarities. We introduce a symplectic manifold M with an action of the b…
We give explicit formulae for fringe lengths of the Calegari-Walker Ziggurats -- i.e. graphs of extremal rotation numbers associated to positive words in free groups. These formulae reveal (partial) integral projective self-similarity in ziggurat fringes, which are low-dimensional projections of characteristic polyhedr…
The aim of this paper is to analyze the processes of polarization and agglomeration, to explain the mechanisms and causes of these phenomena in order to identify similarities and differences. As the main implication of this study should be noted that both process pretend to explain the concentration of economic activit…
We describe first integrals of geostrophic equations, which are similar to the enstrophy invariants of the Euler equation for an ideal incompressible fluid. We explain the geometry behind this similarity, give several equivalent definitions of the Poisson structure on the space of smooth densities on a symplectic manif…
The Global Vectors for word representation (GloVe), introduced by Jeffrey Pennington et al. is reported to be an efficient and effective method for learning vector representations of words. State-of-the-art performance is also provided by skip-gram with negative-sampling (SGNS) implemented in the word2vec tool. In this…
The paper deals with the problem of identifying the internal dependencies and similarities among a large number of random processes. Linear models are considered to describe the relations among the time series and the energy associated to the corresponding modeling error is the criterion adopted to quantify their simil…
To study how mental object representations are related to behavior, we estimated sparse, non-negative representations of objects using human behavioral judgments on images representative of 1,854 object categories. These representations predicted a latent similarity structure between objects, which captured most of the…
We introduce self-dual manifolds and show that they can be used to encode mirror symmetry for affine-Kähler manifolds and for elliptic curves. Their geometric properties, especially the link with special lagrangian fibrations and the existence of a transformation similar to the Fourier-Mukai functor, suggest that this …
The paper studies harmonic map heat flow stability and decay rates.
problem Analyzing stability and decay rates of harmonic map heat flow solutions.
method Use of homogeneous Besov space B˙p,∞pd(Rd) for small initial data and self-similar decay assumption.
result Decay rates for solutions of the harmonic map flow of the form ∥ablau(t)∥L∞(Rd)≤Ct−21 and self-similar decay under stronger initial conditions.
To every oriented link L, we associate a topologically defined biquandle BL, which we call the topological biquandle of L. The construction of BL is similar to the topological description of the fundamental quandle given by Matveev. We find a presentation of the top…
A conformal map from a Riemann surface to a Euclidean space of dimension greater than or equal to three is explained by using the Clifford algebra, in a similar fashion to quaternionic holomorphic geometry of surfaces in the Euclidean three- or four-space. The Weierstrass representation, the spin transform, the Darboux…
Predictive modeling applications increasingly use data representing people's behavior, opinions, and interactions. Fine-grained behavior data often has different structure from traditional data, being very high-dimensional and sparse. Models built from these data are quite difficult to interpret, since they contain man…
