Many practical applications such as gene expression analysis, multi-task learning, image recognition, signal processing, and medical data analysis pursue a sparse solution for the feature selection purpose and particularly favor the nonzeros \emph{evenly} distributed in different groups. The exclusive sparsity norm has…

The girth of a finitely generated group G is the supremum of the girth of Cayley graphs for G over all finite generating sets. Let G be a finitely generated subgroup of the mapping class group Mod(S), where S is a compact orientable surface. Then, either G is virtually abelian or it has infinite girth; moreover, if we …

Here we show that, when groups differ in prevalence of the predicted event, several intuitive, reasonable measures of fairness (probability of p…

Gromov proposed to extract the (differential) geometric content of a sub-riemannian space exclusively from its Carnot-Carathéodory distance. One of the most striking features of a regular sub-riemannian space is that it has at any point a metric tangent space with the algebraic structure of a Carnot group, hence a homo…

For early times a ma…

An ongoing challenge in the analysis of document collections is how to summarize content in terms of a set of inferred themes that can be interpreted substantively in terms of topics. The current practice of parametrizing the themes in terms of most frequent words limits interpretability by ignoring the differential us…
Unsupervised learning is becoming more and more important recently. As one of its key components, the autoencoder (AE) aims to learn a latent feature representation of data which is more robust and discriminative. However, most AE based methods only focus on the reconstruction within the encoder-decoder phase, which ig…
In the first part of this paper, we work out a perturbative Lagrangian formulation of semistrict higher gauge theory, that avoids the subtleties of the relationship between Lie 2-groups and algebras by relying exclusively on the structure semistrict Lie 2-algebra v and its automorphism 2-group Aut(v). Gauge transformat…
