Optimizes electric field to control molecule states in Hartree-Fock theory.
Uniform covers with a finite-dimensional nerve are rare (i.e., do not form a cofinal family) in many separable metric spaces of interest. To get hold on uniform homotopy properties of these spaces, a reasonably behaved notion of an infinite-dimensional metric polyhedron is needed; a specific list of desired properties …
Researchers analyze betting odds and free coupons to find exploitable gains.
In fivebrane compactifications on 3-manifolds, we point out the importance of all flat connections in the proper definition of the effective 3d N=2 theory. The Lagrangians of some theories with the desired properties can be constructed with the help of homological knot invariants that categorify colored Jones polynomia…
New framework optimizes for 'value' rather than engagement.
Study arbitrage theory without numéraire, generalizing NUPBR.
The abstract explores analogues of Hodge theory in Lie algebroids.
Solving statistical learning problems often involves nonconvex optimization. Despite the empirical success of nonconvex statistical optimization methods, their global dynamics, especially convergence to the desirable local minima, remain less well understood in theory. In this paper, we propose a new analytic paradigm …
For (or ) Donaldson theory on a 4-manifold , we construct a simple geometric representative for of a point. Let be a generic point in . Then the set is reducible , with coefficient -1/4 and appropriate orientation, is our desired geometric representative.
Paper proposes a framework for token economy simulation and wealth distribution.
The study improves compound selection in in silico screening by focusing on model's ability to predict desirable outcomes.
This work explores alternative learning criteria beyond traditional risk.
We will simplify earlier proofs of Perelman's collapsing theorem for 3-manifolds given by Shioya-Yamaguchi and Morgan-Tian. Among other things, we use Perelman's critical point theory (e.g., multiple conic singularity theory and his fibration theory) for Alexandrov spaces to construct the desired local Seifert fibratio…
Investigates the impact of finite VC dimension on neural network approximation and learning.
High-dimensional k-sample comparison is a common applied problem. We construct a class of easy-to-implement nonparametric distribution-free tests based on new tools and unexplored connections with spectral graph theory. The test is shown to possess various desirable properties along with a characteristic exploratory fl…
Diversification represents the idea of choosing variety over uniformity. Within the theory of choice, desirability of diversification is axiomatized as preference for a convex combination of choices that are equivalently ranked. This corresponds to the notion of risk aversion when one assumes the von-Neumann-Morgenster…
Paper proposes f-EBM for training deep EBMs using various f-divergences.
ExGAN generates realistic extreme samples using GANs and EVT.
New trading policies preserve robust gains in presence of transaction costs.
This paper extends some results of Hatcher and Quinn beyond the metastable range. We give a bordism theoretic obstruction to deforming a map between manifolds simultaneously off of a collection of pairwise disjoint submanifolds under the assumption that it can be deformed off of any proper subcollection in a homotopy c…
Proposes a method to quantify and decompose disparity in ML models, separating exempt and non-exempt components.
Paper introduces a new method for allocating capital based on risk measures from ruin theory.
With the help of hyper-ideal circle pattern theory, we have developed a discrete version of the classical uniformization theorems for surfaces represented as finite branched covers over the Riemann sphere as well as compact polyhedral surfaces with non-positive curvature. We show that in the case of such surfaces discr…
The paper proposes a model reward scheme for collaborative ML based on Shapley value and information gain.
This thesis was motivated by a desire to understand the natural geometry of hyperbolic monopole moduli spaces. We take two approaches. Firstly we develop the twistor theory of singular hyperbolic monopoles and use it to study the geometry of their charge 1 moduli spaces. After this we introduce a new way to study the m…
Sharp statistical theory for conditional diffusion models.
Paper presents a framework for learning generative models with structured latent factors.
Simplifies VAE for anomaly detection using rate-distortion theory.
The last financial and economic crisis demonstrated the dysfunctional long-term effects of aggressive behaviour in financial markets. Yet, evolutionary game theory predicts that under the condition of strategic dependence a certain degree of aggressive behaviour remains within a given population of agents. However, as …
This paper introduces localized discrepancy theories for unsupervised domain adaptation.
Improved online prediction with guaranteed coverage.
Ensemble sampling approximates Thompson sampling for complex models.
We use the 3d-3d correspondence together with the DGG construction of theories labelled by 3-manifolds M to define a non-perturbative state-integral model for SL(n,C) Chern-Simons theory at any level k, based on ideal triangulations. The resulting partition functions generalize a widely studied k=1 state-integ…
OptiGAN uses GAN and RL to optimize sequence generation for specific goals.
The theory of the vortex filament in three-dimensional fluid dynamics, consisting mainly of the models up to the third-order approximation, is an attractive subject in both physics and mathematics. Many efforts have been devoted to the extension of the theory to higher-dimensional symmetric Lie algebras. However, such …
New algorithms recover Brenier potentials with desired smoothness and convexity.
We show through theory and experiment that gradient-based explanations of a model quickly reveal the model itself. Our results speak to a tension between the desire to keep a proprietary model secret and the ability to offer model explanations. On the theoretical side, we give an algorithm that provably learns a two-la…
We present a new method for the separation of superimposed, independent, auto-correlated components from noisy multi-channel measurement. The presented method simultaneously reconstructs and separates the components, taking all channels into account and thereby increases the effective signal-to-noise ratio considerably…
Attention to entropic communication improves message decoding and cooperation.
Around 1988, Floer introduced two important theories: instanton Floer homology as invariants of 3-manifolds and Lagrangian Floer homology as invariants of pairs of Lagrangians in symplectic manifolds. Soon after that, Atiyah conjectured that the two theories should be related to each other and Lagrangian Floer homology…
Classical mean-variance portfolio theory tells us how to construct a portfolio of assets which has the greatest expected return for a given level of return volatility. Utility theory then allows an investor to choose the point along this efficient frontier which optimally balances her desire for excess expected return …
The support vector machine (SVM) is a widely used machine learning tool for classification based on statistical learning theory. Given a set of training data, the SVM finds a hyperplane that separates two different classes of data points by the largest distance. While the standard form of SVM uses L2-norm regularizatio…
Dualities in physics help in machine learning tasks.
New method enhances model fine-tuning with minimal data.
In this article, we prove that on any compact spin manifold of dimension m congruent 0,6,7 mod 8, there exists a metric, for which the associated Dirac operator has at least one eigenvalue of multiplicity at least two. We prove this by catching the desired metric in a subspace of Riemannian metrics with a loop that is …
Motivated by strong desire to understand the natural geometry of moduli spaces of hyperbolic monopoles, we introduce and study a new type of geometry: pluricomplex geometry. It is a generalisation of hypercomplex geometry: we still have a 2-sphere of complex structures, but they no longer behave like unit imaginary qua…
A new method combines classifiers using possibility distributions and adaptive t-norms.
