Paper tackles instance-dependent label noise by approximating it with part-dependent noise.
Arithmetic spaces' thin parts are negligible, impacting Betti numbers.
This is the second part of an article in two parts, which builds the foundation of a Floer-theoretic invariant, I_F. (See math.DG/0111313 for part I). Having constructed I_F and outlined a proof of its invariance based on bifurcation analysis in part I, in this part we prove a series of gluing theorems to confirm the b…
mSHAP explains predictions of two-part models, improving fairness and interpretability.
We give the first part of a proof of Thurston's Ending Lamination conjecture. In this part we show how to construct from the end invariants of a Kleinian surface group a ``Lipschitz model'' for the thick part of the corresponding hyperbolic manifold. This enables us to describe the topological structure of the thick pa…
The paper proves inequalities linking Wasserstein distances and eigenfunctions in RCD(K,∞) spaces.
This survey consists of two parts. Part 1 is devoted to amoebas. These are images of algebraic subvarieties in the complex torus under the logarithmic moment map. The amoebas have essentially piecewise-linear shape if viewed at large. Furthermore, they degenerate to certain piecewise-linear objects called tropical vari…
Scene understanding remains a significant challenge in the computer vision community. The visual psychophysics literature has demonstrated the importance of interdependence among parts of the scene. Yet, the majority of methods in computer vision remain local. Pictorial structures have arisen as a fundamental parts-bas…
This thesis is divided into three parts. In the first part, we give an introduction to J. Harrison's theory of differential chains. In the second part, we apply these tools to generalize the Cauchy theorems in complex analysis. Instead of requiring a piecewise smooth path over which to integrate, we can now do so over …
This article is the second part of the article we promised to write at the end of Section 1 of [FOOO15] (arXiv:1209.4410). (Part I appeared in [Part I] (arXiv:1503.07631).) We discuss the foundation of the virtual fundamental chain and cycle technique, especially its version that appeared in [FOn] and also in Section A…
A nonlinear differential equation of Sornette-Ide type with noise, for a complex variable, yields endogenous crashes, preceded by roughly log-periodic oscillations in the real part, and a strong increase in the imaginary part. The latter is interpreted as the trader expectation.
This is the first part of the article we promised at the end of [FOOO13, Section 1]. We discuss the foundation of the virtual fundamental chain and cycle technique, especially its version appeared in [FOn] and also in [FOOO4, Section A1, Section 7.5], [FOOO7, Section 12], [Fu2]. In Part 1, we focus on the construction …
In this paper (Part I) and its sequels (Part II and Part III), we analyze the structure of the space of solutions to the epsilon-Dirichlet problem for the Yang-Mills equations on the 4-dimensional disk, for small values of the coupling constant epsilon. These are in one-to-one correspondence with solutions to the Diric…
This paper concerns the H(2)-unknotting numbers of links related to 2-bridge links. It consists of three parts. In the first part, we consider a necessary and sufficient condition for a 2-bridge link to have H(2)-unknotting number one. The second part concerns an explicit form of composite links with H(2)-unknotting nu…
Study 2-loop part of Johnson cokernel using trace map.
We develop the structure theory of symplectic Lie groups based on the study of their isotropic normal subgroups. The article consists of three main parts. In the first part we show that every symplectic Lie group admits a sequence of subsequent symplectic reductions to a unique irreducible symplectic Lie group. The sec…
The study uses Hidden Markov Models to analyze student enrollment patterns and academic performance.
These are lecture notes for a course on machine learning with neural networks for scientists and engineers that I have given at Gothenburg University and Chalmers Technical University in Gothenburg, Sweden. The material is organised into three parts: Hopfield networks, supervised learning of labeled data, and learning …
Kernels for structured data are commonly obtained by decomposing objects into their parts and adding up the similarities between all pairs of parts measured by a base kernel. Assignment kernels are based on an optimal bijection between the parts and have proven to be an effective alternative to the established convolut…
Learning representations with diversified information remains as an open problem. Towards learning diversified representations, a new approach, termed Information Competing Process (ICP), is proposed in this paper. Aiming to enrich the information carried by feature representations, ICP separates a representation into …
The present, partly expository, monograph consists of three parts. The first part treats Spin- and Pin-structures from three different perspectives and shows them to be suitably equivalent. It also introduces an intrinsic perspective on the relative Spin- and Pin-structures of Fukaya-Oh-Ohta-Ono and Solomon, establishe…
This is part 2 of a 3-part article where we provide an -algorithm to produce a surgery presentation of a 3-manifold induced by a gem with a resolution. In this part we produce a sequence of colored simplicial 2-complexes which are inverses and dual to the sequence of gems produced in the first part. The refinem…
Final part of a series on nonlinear observers on Riemannian metrics, establishing conditions for convergence.
In this very short note we slightly generalize some relations for one-part double Hurwitz numbers from math.AG/0209282.
This article is a standalone introduction to sutured Floer homology for graduate students in geometry and topology. It is divided into three parts. The first part is an introductory level exposition of Lagrangian Floer homology. The second part is a construction of Heegaard Floer homology as a special, and slightly mod…
This largely technical paper is divided into two parts: part I: An account of P. Ozsvath and Z. Szabo's construction of the link surgery spectral sequence. There are no new results here, but this part slightly modifies and expands their proof and is included as an aid to part II. part II: Some modifications of the spec…
This paper has been withdrawn, because its material has been revised and became part of paper math.GT/0010184
We survey three different ways in which K-theory in all its forms enters quantum field theory. In Part 1 we give a general argument which relates topological field theory in codimension two with twisted K-theory, and we illustrate with some finite models. Part 2 is a review of pfaffians of Dirac operators, anomalies, a…
The article consist of two main parts: an analog of the Leray Theory for Singular Varieties and its application to the Theory of Parshin's Residues. The first part is independent from the second. It uses the theory of Whitney stratifications. The second part is an application of the first. In particular, a geometric an…
A topological invariant of the geodesic laminations on a modular surface is constructed. The invariant has a continuous part (the tail of a continued fraction) and a combinatorial part (the singularity data). It is shown, that the invariant is complete, i.e. the geodesic lamination can be recovered from the invariant. …
The paper explores the topology and curvature of isoparametric families in spheres.
Key to structured prediction is exploiting the problem structure to simplify the learning process. A major challenge arises when data exhibit a local structure (e.g., are made by "parts") that can be leveraged to better approximate the relation between (parts of) the input and (parts of) the output. Recent literature o…
Subject of present paper is the review of results of authors on foliation theory and applications of foliation theory in control systems. The paper consists of two parts. In the first part the results of authors on foliation theory are presented, in the second part the results on applications of foliation theory in the…
This is the third part of the work on the exact triangles. We construct chain homomorphisms and show exactness of the resulting sequence.
We consider the martingale optimal transport duality for càdlàg processes with given initial and terminal laws. Strong duality and existence of dual optimizers (robust semi-static superhedging strategies) are proved for a class of payoffs that includes American, Asian, Bermudan, and European options with intermediate m…
Infinite volume found in the thick part of -Hitchin-Riemann moduli space.
Geometrical and appearance quality requirements set the limits of the current industrial performance in injection molding. To guarantee the product's quality, it is necessary to adjust the process settings in a closed loop. Those adjustments cannot rely on the final quality because a part takes days to be geometrically…
This is Part II of a series on noncompact isometry groups of Lorentz manifolds. We have introduced in Part I, a compactification of these isometry groups, and called ``bi-polarized'' those Lorentz manifolds having a ``trivial '' compactification. Here we show a geometric rigidity of non-bi-polarized Lorentz manifolds; …
This paper is devoted to higher dimensional Anosov flows and consists of two parts. In the first part, we investigate fiberwise Anosov flows on affine torus bundles which fiber over 3-dimensional Anosov flows. We provide a dichotomy result for such flows --- they are either suspensions of Anosov diffeomorphisms or the …
Properly discontinuous actions of a surface group by affine automorphisms of were shown to exist by Danciger-Gueritaud-Kassel. We show, however, that if the linear part of an affine surface group action is in the Hitchin component, then the action fails to be properly discontinuous. The key case is that o…

Survey of embedding methods for high-dimensional and network data.
In this paper, we consider a Riemannian manifold (M, g) endowed with a Riemannian flow and we study the curvature term in the Bochner-Weitzenb{ö}ck formula of the basic Laplacian on M. We prove that this term splits into two parts. The first part depends mainly on the curvature operator of the underlying manifold M and…
We demonstrate a new deep learning autoencoder network, trained by a nonnegativity constraint algorithm (NCAE), that learns features which show part-based representation of data. The learning algorithm is based on constraining negative weights. The performance of the algorithm is assessed based on decomposing data into…
SoftAdapt dynamically adjusts loss weights for multi-part functions.
This is the first part of a series on non-compact groups acting isometrically on compact Lorentz manifolds. This subject was recently investigated by many authors. In the present part we investigate the dynamics of affine, and especially Lorentz transformations. In particular we show how this is related to geodesic fol…
The paper is constructed in two parts.In the first part we introduce the concept of the algebra of Q-meromorphic functions on the quantum plane.The A (q)-algebra of Q-analytic functions considered in[6]is seen as a proper subalgebra. In the second part we find a formula for the curvature tensor on this algebra. It is s…
