Winterization of Texas power system profitable but risky, estimated at $11.74bn over 30 years.
We present a novel language adaptable spell checking system which detects spelling errors and suggests context sensitive corrections in real-time. We show that our system can be extended to new languages with minimal language-specific processing. Available literature majorly discusses spell checkers for English but the…
This study analyses the duration dependence of events that trigger volatility persistence in stock markets. Such events, in our context, are monthly spells of contiguous price decline or negative returns for the S&P500 stock market index over the last 145 years. Factors known to affect the duration of these spells are …
We further study the incidence relations that arise from the various subtowers, known as Baby Monster, which exist within the -Monster Tower. This allows us to complete the class spelling rules. We also present a method of calculating the various Baby Monster that appear within the Monster Tower.
A transformer model improves spell correction with hierarchical attention.
The P300 Brain-Computer Interface (BCI) is a well-established communication channel for severely disabled people. The P300 event-related potential is mostly characterized by its amplitude or its area, which correlate with the spelling accuracy of the P300 speller. Here, we introduce a novel approach for estimating the …

Study bounds self-shrinker entropy using Li-Yau volume and Colding-Minicozzi entropy.
Playlist recommendation involves producing a set of songs that a user might enjoy. We investigate this problem in three cold-start scenarios: (i) cold playlists, where we recommend songs to form new personalised playlists for an existing user; (ii) cold users, where we recommend songs to form new playlists for a new us…
The paper investigates quantitative rigidity using Colding's monotonicity formulas for Ricci curvature.
Graph neural networks improve cold start for new items in recommender systems.
The item cold-start problem seriously limits the recommendation performance of Collaborative Filtering (CF) methods when new items have either none or very little interactions. To solve this issue, many modern Internet applications propose to predict a new item's interaction from the possessing contents. However, it is…
Study shows rigidity for entropy minimizers in non-monotone cases.
We present Listen, Attend and Spell (LAS), a neural network that learns to transcribe speech utterances to characters. Unlike traditional DNN-HMM models, this model learns all the components of a speech recognizer jointly. Our system has two components: a listener and a speller. The listener is a pyramidal recurrent ne…
The cold posterior effect is explored through PAC-Bayes bounds for small sample sizes.
Cold posteriors in BNNs harm performance, likely due to incorrect likelihood.
Improves diversity of text-to-image models without sacrificing FID.
This work explores the ability of collective matrix factorization models in recommender systems to make predictions about users and items for which there is side information available but no feedback or interactions data, and proposes a new formulation with a faster cold-start prediction formula that can be used in rea…
Entropy derived from Colding's volume on Ricci-flat manifolds.
FAB-COST improves cold-start recommendation accuracy with less data.
The Monster tower, also known as the Semple tower, is a sequence of manifolds with distributions of interest to both differential and algebraic geometers. Each manifold is a projective bundle over the previous. Moreover, each level is a fiber compactified jet bundle equipped with an action of finite jets of the diffeom…
Study minimal surfaces in complex hyperbolic space, linking entropy and volume.
Motivated and inspired by the recent work of Colding [5] and Colding-Minicozzi [6] we derive several families of monotonicity formulas for manifolds with nonnegative Bakry-Emery Ricci curvature, extending the formulas in [5, 6].
In automatic speech recognition (ASR) what a user says depends on the particular context she is in. Typically, this context is represented as a set of word n-grams. In this work, we present a novel, all-neural, end-to-end (E2E) ASR sys- tem that utilizes such context. Our approach, which we re- fer to as Contextual Lis…
Proof of Reifenberg theorem in metric spaces, expanding on Cheeger and Colding's work.
In recommender systems, cold-start issues are situations where no previous events, e.g. ratings, are known for certain users or items. In this paper, we focus on the item cold-start problem. Both content information (e.g. item attributes) and initial user ratings are valuable for seizing users' preferences on a new ite…

Study self shrinkers with medium entropy in 4D space.
In this paper is to extend the Cheeger-Colding Theory to the class of conic Kahler-Einstein metrics. This extension provides a technical tool for [LTW] in which we prove a version of the Yau-Tian-Donaldson conjecture for Fano varieties with certain singularity.
We develop a chatbot using Deep Bidirectional Transformer models (BERT) to handle client questions in financial investment customer service. The bot can recognize 381 intents, and decides when to say "I don't know" and escalates irrelevant/uncertain questions to human operators. Our main novel contribution is the discu…
We review (non-abelian) extensions of a given Lie algebra, identify a 3-dimensional cohomological obstruction to the existence of extensions. A striking analogy to the setting of covariant exterior derivatives, curvature, and the Bianchi identity in differential geometry is spelled out. In the new version references ad…
Restricted Boltzman Machines (RBMs) have been successfully used in recommender systems. However, as with most of other collaborative filtering techniques, it cannot solve cold start problems for there is no rating for a new item. In this paper, we first apply conditional RBM (CRBM) which could take extra information in…
Memory-Augmented Meta-Optimization improves cold-start recommendation.
Content-based news recommendation systems need to recommend news articles based on the topics and content of articles without using user specific information. Many news articles describe the occurrence of specific events and named entities including people, places or objects. In this paper, we propose a graph traversal…
TransCORALNet uses transformer and CORAL for supply chain credit assessment with cold start.
Entropy for submanifolds in hyperbolic space defined.
NetDP predicts loan defaults using network data, addressing cold-start issues.
High-dimensional unimodal distributions can cause MCMC methods to fail.
Cold-start is a very common and still open problem in the Recommender Systems literature. Since cold start items do not have any interaction, collaborative algorithms are not applicable. One of the main strategies is to use pure or hybrid content-based approaches, which usually yield to lower recommendation quality tha…
Among the machine learning applications to business, recommender systems would take one of the top places when it comes to success and adoption. They help the user in accelerating the process of search while helping businesses maximize sales. Post phenomenal success in computer vision and speech recognition, deep learn…
In this paper, we study the structure of the pointed-Gromov-Hausdorff limits of sequences of Ricci shrinkers. We define a regular-singular decomposition following the work of Cheeger-Colding for manifolds with a uniform Ricci curvature lower bound, and prove that the regular part of any Ricci shrinker limit space is co…
Collaborative filtering is used to recommend items to a user without requiring a knowledge of the item itself and tends to outperform other techniques. However, collaborative filtering suffers from the cold-start problem, which occurs when an item has not yet been rated or a user has not rated any items. Incorporating …
