This research designs a data-driven partition to test independence between continuous variables.
We present a constructive and self-contained approach to data driven general partition-of-unity copulas that were recently introduced in the literature. In particular, we consider Bernstein-, negative binomial and Poisson copulas and present a solution to the problem of fitting such copulas to highly asymmetric data.
We present a constructive and self-contained approach to data driven infinite partition-of-unity copulas that were recently introduced in the literature. In particular, we consider negative binomial and Poisson copulas and present a solution to the problem of fitting such copulas to highly asymmetric data in arbitrary …
We study the performance of data-driven, a priori and random approaches to label space partitioning for multi-label classification with a Gaussian Naive Bayes classifier. Experiments were performed on 12 benchmark data sets and evaluated on 5 established measures of classification quality: micro and macro averaged F1 s…
In this paper, we provide an approach to clustering relational matrices whose entries correspond to either similarities or dissimilarities between objects. Our approach is based on the value of information, a parameterized, information-theoretic criterion that measures the change in costs associated with changes in inf…
We propose using five data-driven community detection approaches from social networks to partition the label space for the task of multi-label classification as an alternative to random partitioning into equal subsets as performed by RAkELd: modularity-maximizing fastgreedy and leading eigenvector, infomap, walktrap an…
Paper develops adaptive models for robust energy forecasting with missing data.
We study nonlinear regression of real valued data in an individual sequence manner, where we provide results that are guaranteed to hold without any statistical assumptions. We address the convergence and undertraining issues of conventional nonlinear regression methods and introduce an algorithm that elegantly mitigat…
A theoretical performance analysis of the graph neural network (GNN) is presented. For classification tasks, the neural network approach has the advantage in terms of flexibility that it can be employed in a data-driven manner, whereas Bayesian inference requires the assumption of a specific model. A fundamental questi…
GPU-accelerated particle methods outperform neural samplers in LFT benchmarks.
A new method reduces high-dimensional state space for dynamic choice models.
Gaussian Process Regression and Kernel Ridge Regression are popular nonparametric regression approaches. Unfortunately, they suffer from high computational complexity rendering them inapplicable to the modern massive datasets. To that end a number of approximations have been suggested, some of them allowing for a distr…

As the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) grows, systems are increasingly being monitored by arrays of sensors returning time-series data at ever-increasing 'volume, velocity and variety' (i.e. Industrial Big Data). An obvious use for these data is real-time systems condition monitoring and prognostic time to failure…

Secure Multiparty Computation protects data privacy in Symbolic Regression.
We present an efficient algorithm for model-free episodic reinforcement learning on large (potentially continuous) state-action spaces. Our algorithm is based on a novel -learning policy with adaptive data-driven discretization. The central idea is to maintain a finer partition of the state-action space in regions w…
Clustering partitions a dataset such that observations placed together in a group are similar but different from those in other groups. Hierarchical and -means clustering are two approaches but have different strengths and weaknesses. For instance, hierarchical clustering identifies groups in a tree-like structure b…
With the aim of creating virtual cloth deformations more similar to real world clothing, we propose a new computational framework that recasts three dimensional cloth deformation as an RGB image in a two dimensional pattern space. Then a three dimensional animation of cloth is equivalent to a sequence of two dimensiona…
Proposes a physics-informed VAE for disentangling physics from confounding influences.
The study provides theoretical foundations for using smaller instances to predict algorithm performance on larger ones.
In distributed machine learning, data is dispatched to multiple machines for processing. Motivated by the fact that similar data points often belong to the same or similar classes, and more generally, classification rules of high accuracy tend to be "locally simple but globally complex" (Vapnik & Bottou 1993), we propo…

Estimates means in metric spaces using quantization.
New method calibrates stochastic reduced-order models from data efficiently.
Conformal methods create prediction bands that control average coverage under no assumptions besides i.i.d. data. Besides average coverage, one might also desire to control conditional coverage, that is, coverage for every new testing point. However, without strong assumptions, conditional coverage is unachievable. Giv…

Consider a nonparametric contextual multi-arm bandit problem where each arm is associated to a nonparametric reward function mapping from contexts to the expected reward. Suppose that there is a large set of arms, yet there is a simple but unknown structure amongst the arm reward…
Clustering with fast algorithms large samples of high dimensional data is an important challenge in computational statistics. Borrowing ideas from MacQueen (1967) who introduced a sequential version of the -means algorithm, a new class of recursive stochastic gradient algorithms designed for the -medians loss cri…
Individuals do not respond uniformly to treatments, events, or interventions. Sociologists routinely partition samples into subgroups to explore how the effects of treatments vary by covariates like race, gender, and socioeconomic status. In so doing, analysts determine the key subpopulations based on theoretical prior…
Maximum Likelihood Estimation (MLE) is the bread and butter of system inference for stochastic systems. In some generality, MLE will converge to the correct model in the infinite data limit. In the context of physical approaches to system inference, such as Boltzmann machines, MLE requires the arduous computation of pa…
Many of the best statistical classification algorithms are binary classifiers that can only distinguish between one of two classes. The number of possible ways of generalizing binary classification to multi-class increases exponentially with the number of classes. There is some indication that the best method will depe…
Goldbach conjecture is one of the most famous open mathematical problems. It states that every even number, bigger than two, can be presented as a sum of 2 prime numbers. % In this work we present a deep learning based model that predicts the number of Goldbach partitions for a given even number. Surprisingly, our mode…

Hypergraph partitioning lies at the heart of a number of problems in machine learning and network sciences. Many algorithms for hypergraph partitioning have been proposed that extend standard approaches for graph partitioning to the case of hypergraphs. However, theoretical aspects of such methods have seldom received …
The input data features set for many data driven tasks is high-dimensional while the intrinsic dimension of the data is low. Data analysis methods aim to uncover the underlying low dimensional structure imposed by the low dimensional hidden parameters by utilizing distance metrics that consider the set of attributes as…
In this paper, we propose a family of graph partition similarity measures that take the topology of the graph into account. These graph-aware measures are alternatives to using set partition similarity measures that are not specifically designed for graph partitions. The two types of measures, graph-aware and set parti…
