A locally-built, LLM-digested index of recent arXiv papers in quant finance, geometry/topology, and statistical ML — keyword search served straight from SQLite on this machine.
We describe our language-independent unsupervised word sense induction system. This system only uses topic features to cluster different word senses in their global context topic space. Using unlabeled data, this system trains a latent Dirichlet allocation (LDA) topic model then uses it to infer the topics distribution…
Many methods have been used to recognize author personality traits from text, typically combining linguistic feature engineering with shallow learning models, e.g. linear regression or Support Vector Machines. This work uses deep-learning-based models and atomic features of text, the characters, to build hierarchical, …
Recently, due to the increasing popularity of social media, the necessity for extracting information from informal text types, such as microblog texts, has gained significant attention. In this study, we focused on the Named Entity Recognition (NER) problem on informal text types for Turkish. We utilized a semi-supervi…
Twitter provides an open and rich source of data for studying human behaviour at scale and is widely used in social and network sciences. However, a major criticism of Twitter data is that demographic information is largely absent. Enhancing Twitter data with user ages would advance our ability to study social network …
Entity relatedness has emerged as an important feature in a plethora of applications such as information retrieval, entity recommendation and entity linking. Given an entity, for instance a person or an organization, entity relatedness measures can be exploited for generating a list of highly-related entities. However,…
Sentiment analysis (SA) is a task related to understanding people's feelings in written text; the starting point would be to identify the polarity level (positive, neutral or negative) of a given text, moving on to identify emotions or whether a text is humorous or not. This task has been the subject of several researc…
In this paper we consider a problem of searching a space of predictive models for a given training data set. We propose an iterative procedure for deriving a sequence of improving models and a corresponding sequence of sets of non-linear features on the original input space. After a finite number of iterations N, the n…
A nonparametric approach for policy learning for POMDPs is proposed. The approach represents distributions over the states, observations, and actions as embeddings in feature spaces, which are reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces. Distributions over states given the observations are obtained by applying the kernel Bayes' …
Invertible networks help explain decisions and identify important features.
problem Interpreting and explaining the decisions of black-box neural networks.
method Two-stage approach: invertible transformation to feature space and linear classifier. Determining decision boundaries and feature importance using local linear models.
result Ability to explain decisions and identify important features in neural networks.
This paper considers the multi-task learning problem and in the setting where some relevant features could be shared across few related tasks. Most of the existing methods assume the extent to which the given tasks are related or share a common feature space to be known apriori. In real-world applications however, it i…
Steerable neural ODEs on homogeneous spaces for equivariant feature dynamics.
problem Learning continuous-time equivariant dynamics of vector-valued features on homogeneous spaces.
method Introduces steerable neural ordinary differential equations on homogeneous spaces, interpreting features as sections of associated vector bundles over M.
result Steerable NODEs are G-equivariant when the flow and connection are G-invariant, and they incorporate existing models.
This paper analyzes kNN convergence over feature transformations.
problem The curse of dimensionality affects kNN performance in transformed feature spaces.
method Developed a novel analysis on kNN convergence rates over transformed features, linking properties of the transformed space to raw feature space.
result Theoretical analysis explains why some feature transformations are better for kNN.
