Kernel matrices (e.g. Gram or similarity matrices) are essential for many state-of-the-art approaches to classification, clustering, and dimensionality reduction. For large datasets, the cost of forming and factoring such kernel matrices becomes intractable. To address this challenge, we introduce a new adaptive sampli…

In this paper we develop the theory of parametric polynomial regression in Riemannian manifolds and Lie groups. We show application of Riemannian polynomial regression to shape analysis in Kendall shape space. Results are presented, showing the power of polynomial regression on the classic rat skull growth data of Book…

LATM framework uses LLMs to create and reuse tools for efficient problem-solving.

problem Improving problem-solving capabilities of LLMs with external tools.
method Closed-loop framework with two phases: tool making and tool using. LLMs act as both tool makers and users. Resource-intensive model for tool making, lightweight model for tool using.
result LATM framework achieves performance equivalent to using a powerful LLM for both roles but with significantly reduced costs.

New findings show tool-augmented models can recall unlimited facts, outperforming purely memorized models.

problem Limitations of purely memorized models in recalling large amounts of factual information.
method Demonstrated the benefits of in-tool learning (external retrieval) over in-weight learning (memorization) for factual recall.
result Proved that tool-use enables unbounded factual recall via a simple and efficient circuit construction.

A study ranks critical Lean Six Sigma tools for implementation in Portuguese companies.

problem Identifying the most important tools for successful Lean Six Sigma implementation in Portugal.
method An online survey with Portuguese consultants evaluated 37 tools based on frequency of use, difficulty, importance, and impact. A ranking was developed using a procedure to assess consultants' know-how.
result Honshin Kanri, VOC, VSM were identified as the most important tools for Lean Six Sigma implementation.

ToolChain-CRC addresses the risk-control problem for retrieval-augmented and tool-using agents under drift.

problem Risk-control problem for retrieval-augmented and tool-using agents under drift.
method ToolChain-CRC uses conformal risk-control under exchangeable calibration runs.
result Trajectory-level risk control keeps accepted-trajectory risk below the target.

New methods improve tool-to-tool matching in semiconductor manufacturing.

problem Challenges in obtaining static configuration data and extending methods to heterogeneous equipment.
method Novel TTTM analysis pipelines hypothesizing higher variance and modes for mismatched equipment.
result Best univariate method achieves correlation coefficients >0.95 and >0.5 with variance and modes, respectively.

In manufacture, steel and other metals are mainly cut and shaped during the fabrication process by computer numerical control (CNC) machines. To keep high productivity and efficiency of the fabrication process, engineers need to monitor the real-time process of CNC machines, and the lifetime management of machine tools…

problem Managing the asset-liability liquidity risk in asset management.
method Develops a methodological and practical framework for liquidity stress testing programs.
result Proposes measurement, management, and monitoring tools for controlling the liquidity gap.

Digital tools may hinder or facilitate multidisciplinary collaboration in occupational health.

problem Challenges in multidisciplinary collaboration in occupational health.
method Study of a precursor SPSTI's digital tools and their impacts.
result Digital tools can act as both brakes and levers for multidisciplinary dynamics.

A key challenge in developing and deploying Machine Learning (ML) systems is understanding their performance across a wide range of inputs. To address this challenge, we created the What-If Tool, an open-source application that allows practitioners to probe, visualize, and analyze ML systems, with minimal coding. The W…

One of the open challenges in designing robots that operate successfully in the unpredictable human environment is how to make them able to predict what actions they can perform on objects, and what their effects will be, i.e., the ability to perceive object affordances. Since modeling all the possible world interactio…

In this paper we explore the richness of information captured by the latent space of a vision-based generative model. The model combines unsupervised generative learning with a task-based performance predictor to learn and to exploit task-relevant object affordances given visual observations from a reaching task, invol…

Probabilistic models can handle causal inference without special tools.

problem Confusion over necessary tools for causal inference.
method Demonstrated through concrete examples that causal questions can be answered using standard probabilistic models.
result Causal questions can be addressed using standard probabilistic modelling and inference.

Gaussian processes (GP) are powerful tools for probabilistic modeling purposes. They can be used to define prior distributions over latent functions in hierarchical Bayesian models. The prior over functions is defined implicitly by the mean and covariance function, which determine the smoothness and variability of the …

The paper examines how macroeconomic control tools lost effectiveness, leading to a 'dark ages' period.

problem Loss of effectiveness of control tools in macroeconomic stabilization policy.
method Historical analysis of macroeconomic stabilization policy from 1948 to 1993.
result The overstatement of the Lucas critique and Kydland and Prescott's time-inconsistency led to a period of ineffective stabilization policy.

Develops a tool to identify abnormal blood smear results based on CBC tests.

problem Manual review of blood smears by technologists is time-consuming and inconsistent.
method Cost-sensitive Lasso-penalized additive logistic regression combined with stability selection.
result The tool correctly identifies true cutoff values for abnormal smear results.

In this work we propose a new deep learning tool called deep dictionary learning. Multi-level dictionaries are learnt in a greedy fashion, one layer at a time. This requires solving a simple (shallow) dictionary learning problem, the solution to this is well known. We apply the proposed technique on some benchmark deep…
