Small hypersphere is unstable in both 4-harmonic and ES-4-harmonic settings.

OPT framework improves neural network generalization by learning an orthogonal transformation.

Neural networks are a powerful class of nonlinear functions that can be trained end-to-end on various applications. While the over-parametrization nature in many neural networks renders the ability to fit complex functions and the strong representation power to handle challenging tasks, it also leads to highly correlat…

In recent years, deep learning has surpassed traditional approaches to the problem of singing voice separation. The Wave-U-Net is a recent deep network architecture that operates directly on the time domain. The standard Wave-U-Net is trained with data augmentation and early stopping to prevent overfitting. Minimum hyp…

We describe extrinsic hyperspheres and totally geodesic hypersurfaces in manifolds with special holonomy. In particular we prove the nonexistence of extrinsic hyperspheres in quaternion-Kaehler manifolds. We develop a new approach to extrinsic hyperspheres based on the classification of special Killing forms.

In this paper we study $\widetilde{J}$-tangent affine hyperspheres, where $\widetilde{J}$ is the canonical para-complex structure on $\mathbb{R}^{2n+2}$. The main purpose of this paper is to give a classification of $\widetilde{J}$-tangent affine hyperspheres of an arbitrary dimension with an involutive distribution $\…

Constructs hyperspheres with prescribed mean curvature in Euclidean space.

In this paper, we explicitly construct the Calabi composition of multiple affine hyperspheres possibly including some points viewing as 0-dimensional hypersheres. Then we compute all the basic affine invariants of the composed affine hyperspheres, proving that the composed affine hypersphere is symmetric one if and onl…

Study on hyperspheres in 4-spaces as special Riemannian manifolds.

In this paper, we study locally strongly convex affine hyperspheres in the unimodular affine space $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$ which, as Riemannian manifolds, are locally isometric to the Riemannian product of two Riemannian manifolds both possessing constant sectional curvatures. As the main result, a complete classification o…

A holomorphic representation formula for special parabolic hyperspheres is given.

Upper estimate of Dirac eigenvalue linked to hyperspherical radius.

This paper introduces hyperspherical prototype networks, which unify classification and regression with prototypes on hyperspherical output spaces. For classification, a common approach is to define prototypes as the mean output vector over training examples per class. Here, we propose to use hyperspheres as output spa…

The Variational Auto-Encoder (VAE) is one of the most used unsupervised machine learning models. But although the default choice of a Gaussian distribution for both the prior and posterior represents a mathematically convenient distribution often leading to competitive results, we show that this parameterization fails …

Convolution as inner product has been the founding basis of convolutional neural networks (CNNs) and the key to end-to-end visual representation learning. Benefiting from deeper architectures, recent CNNs have demonstrated increasingly strong representation abilities. Despite such improvement, the increased depth and l…

Many contemporary statistical learning methods assume a Euclidean feature space. This paper presents a method for defining similarity based on hyperspherical geometry and shows that it often improves the performance of support vector machine compared to other competing similarity measures. Specifically, the idea of usi…

We discuss two kinds of almost contact metric structures on a one-parameter family of totally umbilical hyperspheres in the nearly Kaehler unit 6-sphere.

We show that the natural S^1-bundle over a projective special Kaehler manifold carries the geometry of a proper affine hypersphere endowed with a Sasakian structure. The construction generalizes the geometry of the Hopf-fibration $\Sr^{2n+1} \longrightarrow \CP^n$ in the context of projective special Kaehler manifolds.…

An affine hypersurface M is said to admit a pointwise symmetry, if there exists a subgroup G of Aut(T_p M) for all p in M, which preserves (pointwise) the affine metric h, the difference tensor K and the affine shape operator S. Here, we consider 3-dimensional indefinite affine hyperspheres, i.e. S= H Id (and thus S is…

A new loss function HUG decouples and generalizes neural collapse.

Learning suitable latent representations for observed, high-dimensional data is an important research topic underlying many recent advances in machine learning. While traditionally the Gaussian normal distribution has been the go-to latent parameterization, recently a variety of works have successfully proposed the use…

The study characterizes quadrics among affine hyperspheres based on centroid collinearity of sections.

We introduce and study the equiaffine symmetric {\bf hyperspheres}. For the first step we consider the locally strongly convex ones. In fact, by the idea used by Naitoh, we provide in this paper a direct proof of the complete classification for those affine symmetric hyperspheres. Then, via an earlier result of the fir…

This work studies the chord length distribution, in the case where both ends lie on a $N$-dimensional hypersphere ($N \geq 2$). Actually, after connecting this distribution to the recently estimated surface of a hyperspherical cap \cite{SLi11}, closed-form expressions of both the probability density function and the cu…

Proposes a new latent variable model for hyperspherical latent spaces.

In this paper, we give a necessarly and sufficient condition for orbits of linear isotropy representations of Riemannian symmetric spaces are biharmonic submanifolds in hyperspheres in Euclidean spaces. In particular, we obtain examples of biharmonic submanifolds in hyperspheres whose co-dimension is greater than one.

An affine hypersurface $M$ is said to admit a pointwise symmetry, if there exists a subgroup $G$ of ${\rm Aut}(T_p M)$ for all $p\in M$, which preserves (pointwise) the affine metric $h$, the difference tensor $K$ and the affine shape operator $S$. Here, we consider 3-dimensional indefinite affine hyperspheres, i.e. $S…

A new method uses hyperspherical latent spaces to disentangle data with periodic structures.

The orthogonal trajectories of the first tangents of the curve are called the involutes of $x$. The hyperspheres which have higher order contact with a curve $x$ are known osculating hyperspheres of $x$. The centers of osculating hyperspheres form a curve which is called generalized evolute of the given curve $x$ in $n…

New statistical biharmonic maps derived from a variation problem.

There are considered 4-dimensional pseudo-Riemannian spaces with inner products of signature (3,1) and (2,2). The objects of investigation are space-like and time-like hyperspheres in the respective cases. These hypersurfaces are equipped with almost contact B-metric structures. The constructed manifolds are characteri…

We prove that any simply connected special Kaehler manifold admits a canonical immersion as a parabolic affine hypersphere. As an application, we associate a parabolic affine hypersphere to any nondegenerate holomorphic function. Also we show that a classical result of Calabi and Pogorelov on parabolic spheres implies …

The paper projects unknown manifolds onto hyperspheres for efficient function approximation.

Let $M$ be a 5 dimensional Riemannian manifold with $Sec_M\in[0,1]$, $Σ$ be a locally conformally flat hypersphere in $M$ with mean curvature $H$. We prove that, there exists $\varepsilon_0>0$, such that $\int_Σ(1+H^2)^2 \ge 8π^2/3$, provided $H \le \varepsilon_0$. In particular, if $Σ$ is a locally conformally flat mi…

New minimal hypersphere found in 4-sphere solving Bernstein problem.

Application of K-Means algorithm is restricted by the fact that the number of clusters should be known beforehand. Previously suggested methods to solve this problem are either ad hoc or require parametric assumptions and complicated calculations. The proposed method aims to solve this conundrum by considering cluster …

We prove that horospheres, hyperspheres and hyperplanes in a hyperbolic space H n , n $\ge$ 3, admit no perturbations with compact support which increase their mean curvature. is is an extension of the analogous result in the Euclidean spaces, due to M. Gromov, which states that a hyperplane in a Euclidean space R n ad…

We show that a space with a finite asymptotic dimension is embeddable in a non-positively curved manifold. Then we prove that if a uniformly contractible manifold X is uniformly embeddable in $\R^n$ or non-positively curved n-dimensional simply connected manifold then $X\times\R^n$ is integrally hyperspherical. If a un…
