Neural Bayes simplifies computing complex stats for unsupervised learning.

Infinite volume found in the thick part of $\mathrm{PSL}_n(\mathbb{R})$-Hitchin-Riemann moduli space.

We study the space of "link maps": the space of maps of a disjoint union of compact, closed manifolds P_1, . . ., P_k into a manifold N whose images are pairwise disjoint. We apply the manifold calculus of functors developed by Goodwillie and Weiss to study the difference between it and its linear and quadratic approxi…

Unified principle LZN unifies generative modeling, representation learning, and classification.

Understanding how images of objects and scenes behave in response to specific ego-motions is a crucial aspect of proper visual development, yet existing visual learning methods are conspicuously disconnected from the physical source of their images. We propose to exploit proprioceptive motor signals to provide unsuperv…

Graph embedding techniques are useful to characterize spectral signature relations for hyperspectral images. However, such images consists of disjoint classes due to spatial details that are often ignored by existing graph computing tools. Robust parameter estimation is a challenge for kernel functions that compute suc…

Paper disproves Wright's periodic map conjecture.

A graph's winding numbers around two non-adjacent vertices differ by ±1.

A Heegaard splitting of a closed, orientable three-manifold satisfies the disjoint curve property if the splitting surface contains an essential simple closed curve and each handlebody contains an essential disk disjoint from this curve [Thompson, 1999]. A splitting is full if it does not have the disjoint curve proper…

Given a proper map f : M $\rightarrow$ Q, having cell-like point-inverses, from a manifold-without-boundary M onto an ANR Q, it is a much-studied problem to find when f is approximable by homeomorphisms, i.e., when the decomposition of M induced by f is shrinkable (in the sense of Bing). If dimension M $\geq$ 5, J. W. …

Approximates cycles in planar and bounded-genus graphs.

We extend some results of [BF12] on subfactor projections to show that the projection of a free factor B to the free factor complex of the free factor A is well-defined with uniformly bound diameter, unless either A is contained in B or A and B are vertex stabilizers of a single splitting of F_n, i.e. they are disjoint…

We show that all finite-dimensional resolvable generalized manifolds with the piecewise disjoint arc-disk property are codimension one manifold factors. We then show how the piecewise disjoint arc-disk property and other general position properties that detect codimension one manifold factors are related. We also note …

We present a new property, the Disjoint Path Concordances Property, of an ENR homology manifold X which precisely characterizes when X times R has the Disjoint Disks Property. As a consequence, X times R is a manifold if and only if X is resolvable and it possesses this Disjoint Path Concordances Property.

A new classification method using disjoint centroids and normalized distance.

Two triples of triangles having pairwise disjoint outlines in 3-space are called combinatorially isotopic if one triple can be obtained from the other by a continuous motion during which the outlines of the triangles remain pairwise disjoint. We conjecture that it can be algorithmically checked if an (ordered or unorde…

Uniform bounds found for Sierpinski carpet hyperbolic components.

In order to decode the human brain, Multivariate Pattern (MVP) classification generates cognitive models by using functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) datasets. As a standard pipeline in the MVP analysis, brain patterns in multi-subject fMRI dataset must be mapped to a shared space and then a classification mod…

Research shows how certain flat structures behave in specific convex domains.

Improved text-to-image alignment using iterative VQA feedback.

A natural generalization of interval exchange maps are linear involutions, first introduced by Danthony and Nogueira. Recurrent train tracks with a single switch which we call non-classical interval exchanges, form a subclass of linear involutions without flips. They are analogs of classical interval exchanges, and are…

We estimate from below the number of lines meeting each of given 4 disjoint smooth closed curves in a given cyclic order in the real projective 3-space and in a given linear order in the Euclidean 3-space. Similarly, we estimate the number of circles meeting in a given cyclic order given 6 disjoint smooth closed curves…

We define a capacity which measures the size of Weinstein tubular neighbourhoods of Lagrangian submanifolds. In symplectic vector spaces this leads to bounds on the codisc radius for any closed Lagrangian submanifold in terms of Viterbo's isoperimetric inequality. Moreover, we prove a generalization of Gromov's packing…

Let $M$ be a 3-manifold with torus boundary components $T_1$ and $T_2$. Let $φ\colon T_1 \to T_2$ be a homeomorphism, $M_φ$ the manifold obtained from $M$ by gluing $T_1$ to $T_2$ via the map $φ$, and $T$ the image of $T_1$ in $M_φ$. We show that if $φ$ is "sufficiently complicated" then any incompressible or strongly …

The paper introduces MU for NMF with $β$-divergences and disjoint constraints.

We prove that the number s(n) of disjoint minimal graphs supported on domains in R^n is bounded by e(n+1)^2. In the two-dimensional case we show that s(2) is at most three (the conjectured number is two).

We note a simple algebraic proof of Frolkina's result that $\mathbb R^3$ does not contain uncountably many pairwise disjoint copies of the Möbius band, and of a similar result in higher dimensions.

We show that many algebraic actions of higher-rank abelian groups on zero-dimensional groups are mutually disjoint. The proofs exploit differences in the entropy geometry arising from subdynamics and a form of Abramov--Rokhlin formula for half-space entropies.

New algorithm for learning causal structures with disjoint cycles in linear non-Gaussian models.

In this paper, we introduce Channel-wise recurrent convolutional neural networks (RecNets), a family of novel, compact neural network architectures for computer vision tasks inspired by recurrent neural networks (RNNs). RecNets build upon Channel-wise recurrent convolutional (CRC) layers, a novel type of convolutional …

We study conditions under which a finite simplicial complex $K$ can be mapped to $\mathbb R^d$ without higher-multiplicity intersections. An almost $r$-embedding is a map $f: K\to \mathbb R^d$ such that the images of any $r$ pairwise disjoint simplices of $K$ do not have a common point. We show that if $r$ is not a pri…

New embeddings show answer to Baker-Laidacker question can be yes or no.

Fold maps are higher dimensional versions of Morse functions, which play important roles in the studies of smooth manifolds, and such general maps also have been fundamental tools in the studies of smooth manifolds by using generic maps. In this paper, we study {\it simple} fold maps, which are fold maps such that any …

The paper refutes the manifold hypothesis for image data and proposes the union of manifolds hypothesis.

Embeddings of pairs of disjoint nonparallel primitive simple closed curves in the boundary of a genus two handlebody are classified. Briefly, two disjoint primitives either lie on opposite ends of a product $F \boldsymbol{\times} I$, or they lie on opposite ends of a kind of "twisted" product $F \widetilde{\boldsymbol{…

The following problem was proposed in 2010 by S. Lando. Let $M$ and $N$ be two unions of the same number of disjoint circles in a sphere. Do there always exist two spheres in 3-space such that their intersection is transversal and is a union of disjoint circles that is situated as $M$ in one sphere and as $N$ in the ot…

A lamination of a graph embedded on a surface is a collection of pairwise disjoint non-contractible simple closed curves drawn on the graph. In the case when the surface is a sphere with three punctures (a.k.a. a pair of pants), we first identify the lamination space of a graph embedded on that surface as a lattice pol…

Simple curves enclose two small disks if they're wide and bend moderately.

The paper defines invariants for almost graph embeddings and explores their properties.
