These notes grew out of a lecture series given at RIMS in the summer of 2001. The lecture series was aimed at a broad audience that included many graduate students. Its purpose lay in familiarizing the audience with the basics of 3-manifold theory and introducing some topics of current research. The first portion of th…
Cascades of information-sharing are a primary mechanism by which content reaches its audience on social media, and an active line of research has studied how such cascades, which form as content is reshared from person to person, develop and subside. In this paper, we perform a large-scale analysis of cascades on Faceb…
We survey Mirzakhani's work relating to Riemann surfaces, which spans about 20 papers. We target the discussion at a broad audience of non-experts.
This is an expository article with complete proofs intended for a general non-specialist audience. The results are two-fold. First, we discuss a geometric invariant, that we call the width, of a manifold and show how it can be realized as the sum of areas of minimal 2-spheres. For instance, when is a homotopy 3-sph…
Explains Cartan geometries for graduate students.
MGM improves media profiling by integrating textual and structural features.
Overlapping clustering problem is an important learning issue in which clusters are not mutually exclusive and each object may belongs simultaneously to several clusters. This paper presents a kernel based method that produces overlapping clusters on a high feature space using mercer kernel techniques to improve separa…
Deconfounding scores improve causal effect estimation with weak overlap.
Explains basics of supersymmetry and supergeometry.
A new method speeds up overlapping group lasso computations.
In medicine, visualizing chromosomes is important for medical diagnostics, drug development, and biomedical research. Unfortunately, chromosomes often overlap and it is necessary to identify and distinguish between the overlapping chromosomes. A segmentation solution that is fast and automated will enable scaling of co…
New method improves CATE estimation in low overlap regions.
Proposes a sensitivity framework to handle limited overlap in causal inference.
Producing overlapping schemes is a major issue in clustering. Recent proposed overlapping methods relies on the search of an optimal covering and are based on different metrics, such as Euclidean distance and I-Divergence, used to measure closeness between observations. In this paper, we propose the use of another meas…
The study simplifies assessing overlap in logistic regression models using empirical likelihood.
In recent work the author investigates perfect matchings of a bipartite graph obtained from a knot diagram and demonstrates that these correspond to discrete Morse functions on a 2-complex for the 2-sphere. This relationship is expounded below for the opposite audience: those who may be unfamiliar with knots.
New model uses symmetries and scaling laws to predict consumer advertising response.
Estimates overlap in observational studies for causal effect estimation.
This is a large audience version of our previous work (see math.AG/0301146) in which we prove the existence of an (exact) equivalence between the category of coherent analytic sheaves and the category of -coherent sheaves. We also include here the complete proof of our main Theorem.
Agol proved that hyperbolic cubulated groups are virtually special. The aim of these notes is to make the proof accessible to a wider audience; we retain the underlying ideas and constructions of Agol, but substantially change or add to many parts of the argument to give a more transparent and detailed account.
Recently, to solve large-scale lasso and group lasso problems, screening rules have been developed, the goal of which is to reduce the problem size by efficiently discarding zero coefficients using simple rules independently of the others. However, screening for overlapping group lasso remains an open challenge because…
Community detection is a fundamental problem in network analysis which is made more challenging by overlaps between communities which often occur in practice. Here we propose a general, flexible, and interpretable generative model for overlapping communities, which can be thought of as a generalization of the degree-co…
RISA improves VFL by using imputed samples with low uncertainty.
As research into community finding in social networks progresses, there is a need for algorithms capable of detecting overlapping community structure. Many algorithms have been proposed in recent years that are capable of assigning each node to more than a single community. The performance of these algorithms tends to …
We present a principled approach for detecting overlapping temporal community structure in dynamic networks. Our method is based on the following framework: find the overlapping temporal community structure that maximizes a quality function associated with each snapshot of the network subject to a temporal smoothness c…

New mechanism detects overlap density for weak-to-strong generalization.
This is a draft of a textbook on differential forms. The primary target audience is sophmore level undergraduates enrolled in what would traditionally be a course in vector calculus. Later chapters will be of interest to advaced undergraduate and beginning graduate students. Applications include brief introductions to …
We calculate eigenvector overlaps between intersecting time periods of covariance matrices.
Community detection is a task of fundamental importance in social network analysis that can be used in a variety of knowledge-based domains. While there exist many works on community detection based on connectivity structures, they suffer from either considering the overlapping or non-overlapping communities. In this w…

Studies across many disciplines have shown that lexical choice can affect audience perception. For example, how users describe themselves in a social media profile can affect their perceived socio-economic status. However, we lack general methods for estimating the causal effect of lexical choice on the perception of a…

New method detects overlapping communities in weighted graphs without pure nodes assumption.
Town hall discusses AI's impact on statistics, culture, and training.
K-fold Cross Validation is commonly used to evaluate classifiers and tune their hyperparameters. However, it assumes that data points are Independent and Identically Distributed (i.i.d.) so that samples used in the training and test sets can be selected randomly and uniformly. In Human Activity Recognition datasets, we…
