We study signal recovery on graphs based on two sampling strategies: random sampling and experimentally designed sampling. We propose a new class of smooth graph signals, called approximately bandlimited, which generalizes the bandlimited class and is similar to the globally smooth class. We then propose two recovery s…
In this paper, we focus on developing efficient sensitivity analysis methods for a computationally expensive objective function f(x) in the case that the minimization of it has just been performed. Here "computationally expensive" means that each of its evaluation takes significant amount of time, and therefore our m…
This article provides a thorough meta-analysis of the anomaly detection problem. To accomplish this we first identify approaches to benchmarking anomaly detection algorithms across the literature and produce a large corpus of anomaly detection benchmarks that vary in their construction across several dimensions we deem…

problem Efficiently identify key input variables for expensive, black-box functions.
method Proposes novel active learning acquisition functions targeting derivative-based global sensitivity measures (DGSMs) under Gaussian process surrogate models.
result Active learning substantially enhances sample efficiency of DGSM estimation, especially with limited evaluation budgets.
The analysis of data sets arising from multiple sensors has drawn significant research attention over the years. Traditional methods, including kernel-based methods, are typically incapable of capturing nonlinear geometric structures. We introduce a latent common manifold model underlying multiple sensor observations f…
Techniques for data-mining, latent semantic analysis, contextual search of databases, etc. have long ago been developed by computer scientists working on information retrieval (IR). Experimental scientists, from all disciplines, having to analyse large collections of raw experimental data (astronomical, physical, biolo…
problem Intractable evaluation of expected information gain (EIG) in Bayesian optimal experimental design.
method Develops a neural architecture that optimizes a single variational model for estimating EIG across many designs, using a lower bound for computational efficiency.
result Significantly improves accuracy in Bayesian experimental design with better sample efficiency.
PINNACLE optimizes point selection for PINNs, improving accuracy.
problem Challenges in selecting points for training Physics-Informed Neural Networks (PINNs).
method Introduces PINNACLE, an algorithm that jointly optimizes collocation and experimental points selection, adjusting point proportions dynamically.
result PINNACLE outperforms existing methods in forward, inverse, and transfer learning problems.
In PU learning, a binary classifier is trained from positive (P) and unlabeled (U) data without negative (N) data. Although N data is missing, it sometimes outperforms PN learning (i.e., ordinary supervised learning). Hitherto, neither theoretical nor experimental analysis has been given to explain this phenomenon. In …
As application demands for zeroth-order (gradient-free) optimization accelerate, the need for variance reduced and faster converging approaches is also intensifying. This paper addresses these challenges by presenting: a) a comprehensive theoretical analysis of variance reduced zeroth-order (ZO) optimization, b) a nove…
We propose to investigate test statistics for testing homogeneity in reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces. Asymptotic null distributions under null hypothesis are derived, and consistency against fixed and local alternatives is assessed. Finally, experimental evidence of the performance of the proposed approach on both ar…
In this article, we present a brief narration of the origin and the overview of the recent developments done on the Kolkata Paise Restaurant (KPR) problem, which can serve as a prototype for a broader class of resource allocation problems in the presence of a large number of competing agents, typically studied using co…
