This paper addresses the following questions pertaining to the intrinsic dimensionality of any given image representation: (i) estimate its intrinsic dimensionality, (ii) develop a deep neural network based non-linear mapping, dubbed DeepMDS, that transforms the ambient representation to the minimal intrinsic space, an…
In this study, we prove that an intrinsic low dimensionality of covariates is the main factor that determines the performance of deep neural networks (DNNs). DNNs generally provide outstanding empirical performance. Hence, numerous studies have actively investigated the theoretical properties of DNNs to understand thei…
In this expository paper we present short simple proofs of Conway-Gordon-Sachs' theorem on intrinsic linking in three-dimensional space, as well as van Kampen-Flores' and Ummel's theorems on intrinsic intersections. The latter are related to nonrealizability of certain hypergraphs in four-dimensional space. The proofs …
Most exact methods for k-nearest neighbour search suffer from the curse of dimensionality; that is, their query times exhibit exponential dependence on either the ambient or the intrinsic dimensionality. Dynamic Continuous Indexing (DCI) offers a promising way of circumventing the curse and successfully reduces the dep…
Modern large-scale datasets are frequently said to be high-dimensional. However, their data point clouds frequently possess structures, significantly decreasing their intrinsic dimensionality (ID) due to the presence of clusters, points being located close to low-dimensional varieties or fine-grained lumping. We test a…
In the last decades the estimation of the intrinsic dimensionality of a dataset has gained considerable importance. Despite the great deal of research work devoted to this task, most of the proposed solutions prove to be unreliable when the intrinsic dimensionality of the input dataset is high and the manifold where th…
In previous work, we introduced eta invariants for even dimensional manifolds. It plays the same role as the eta invariant of Atiyah-Patodi-Singer, which is for odd dimensional manifolds. It is associated to K1 representatives on even dimensional manifolds, and is defined on a finite cylinder, rather than on the man…
We prove that, in the first Heisenberg group H, an entire locally Lipschitz intrinsic graph admitting vanishing first variation of its sub-Riemannian area and non-negative second variation must be an intrinsic plane, i.e., a coset of a two dimensional subgroup of H. Moreover two examples are given…
We present an intrinsic formulation of the kinematic problem of two n−dimensional manifolds rolling one on another without twisting or slipping. We determine the configuration space of the system, which is an 2n(n+3)−dimensional manifold. The conditions of no-twisting and no-slipping are decoded by means of …
Data living on manifolds commonly appear in many applications. Often this results from an inherently latent low-dimensional system being observed through higher dimensional measurements. We show that under certain conditions, it is possible to construct an intrinsic and isometric data representation, which respects an …
We discuss the construction of Sp(2)Sp(1)-structures whose fundamental form is closed. In particular, we find 10 new examples of 8-dimensional nilmanifolds that admit an invariant closed 4-form with stabiliser Sp(2)Sp(1). Our constructions entail the notion of SO(4)-structures on 7-manifolds. We present a thorough inve…
Novelty search in low-dimensional space improves sample efficiency in exploration tasks.
problem Efficient exploration in complex environments with sparse rewards.
method Combines model-based and model-free objectives to learn a low-dimensional representation. Uses intrinsic novelty rewards based on nearest neighbor distances in this space.
result Our approach achieves more sample-efficient exploration compared to strong baselines on various tasks.
We study the intrinsic geometry of a one-dimensional complex space provided with a Kaehler metric in the sense of Grauert. We show that if K is an upper bound for the Gaussian curvature on the regular locus, then the intrinsic metric has curvature at most K in the sense of Alexandrov.
The success of modern Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies depends critically on the ability to learn non-linear functional dependencies from large, high dimensional data sets. Despite recent high-profile successes, empirical evidence indicates that the high predictive performance is often paired with low robustne…

problem Approximating high-dimensional distributions from low-dimensional ones.
method Proved neural networks can transform low-dimensional distributions to high-dimensional ones with arbitrary closeness measured by Wasserstein distances and maximum mean discrepancy.
result Upper bounds of the approximation error are obtained in terms of the width and depth of neural network.
