We study losses for binary classification and class probability estimation and extend the understanding of them from margin losses to general composite losses which are the composition of a proper loss with a link function. We characterise when margin losses can be proper composite losses, explicitly show how to determ…
We use mathematical induction to prove that the horizontal composition in the class of coherently diagonal complexes is indeed a binary operation. That is to say, the embedding of two coherently diagonal complexes in an alternating planar diagram produces a coherently diagonal complex.
We introduce the hierarchical compositional network (HCN), a directed generative model able to discover and disentangle, without supervision, the building blocks of a set of binary images. The building blocks are binary features defined hierarchically as a composition of some of the features in the layer immediately be…
Learning compact and interpretable representations is a very natural task, which has not been solved satisfactorily even for simple binary datasets. In this paper, we review various ways of composing experts for binary data and argue that competitive forms of interaction are best suited to learn low-dimensional represe…
In this paper, we propose a compositional nonparametric method in which a model is expressed as a labeled binary tree of 2k+1 nodes, where each node is either a summation, a multiplication, or the application of one of the q basis functions to one of the p covariates. We show that in order to recover a labeled bi…
The paper constructs new algebraic structures from Lie algebras and ternary Nambu-Lie algebras, leading to Yang-Baxter operators.
problem Constructing new algebraic structures from Lie algebras and ternary Nambu-Lie algebras.
method Using compositions of binary Lie algebras, 3-Lie algebras, and ternary Nambu-Lie algebras, the paper constructs ternary self-distributive objects and Yang-Baxter operators.
result The constructed Yang-Baxter operators are not gauge equivalent to the transposition operator and can be deformed to new solutions.
The goal of online prediction with expert advice is to find a decision strategy which will perform almost as well as the best expert in a given pool of experts, on any sequence of outcomes. This problem has been widely studied and O(T) and O(logT) regret bounds can be achieved for convex losses (\cite{zin…
Knowledge base (KB) completion adds new facts to a KB by making inferences from existing facts, for example by inferring with high likelihood nationality(X,Y) from bornIn(X,Y). Most previous methods infer simple one-hop relational synonyms like this, or use as evidence a multi-hop relational path treated as an atomic f…
In statistical relational learning, the link prediction problem is key to automatically understand the structure of large knowledge bases. As in previous studies, we propose to solve this problem through latent factorization. However, here we make use of complex valued embeddings. The composition of complex embeddings …
This work is an analytical and numerical study of the composition of several fractals into one and of the relation between the composite dimension and the dimensions of the component fractals. In the case of composition of standard IFS with segments of equal size, the composite dimension can be expressed as a function …
We establish conditions for compositional generalization in machine learning.
problem Achieving compositional generalization in machine learning models.
method We reformulate compositionality as a property of the data-generating process and derive mild conditions on the training distribution and model architecture.
result Our theoretical framework enables compositional generalization under mild conditions.
In classical field theory, the composite fibred manifolds Y -> Z -> X provides the adequate mathematical formulation of gauge models with broken symmetries, e.g., the gauge gravitation theory. This work is devoted to connections on composite fibred manifolds. In particular, we get the horizontal splitting of the vertic…
