We introduce agents that use object-oriented reasoning to consider alternate states of the world in order to more quickly find solutions to problems. Specifically, a hierarchical controller directs a low-level agent to behave as if objects in the scene were added, deleted, or modified. The actions taken by the controll…

SPACE models complex scenes by decomposing objects and backgrounds.

problem Scalability and unsupervised object-oriented scene representation learning.
method Generative latent variable model combining spatial-attention and scene-mixture approaches.
result SPACE achieves factorized object representations and decomposes complex scenes.

Over the past decade, contextual bandit algorithms have been gaining in popularity due to their effectiveness and flexibility in solving sequential decision problems---from online advertising and finance to clinical trial design and personalized medicine. At the same time, there are, as of yet, surprisingly few options…

Object-based approaches for learning action-conditioned dynamics has demonstrated promise for generalization and interpretability. However, existing approaches suffer from structural limitations and optimization difficulties for common environments with multiple dynamic objects. In this paper, we present a novel self-s…

Scalability in terms of object density in a scene is a primary challenge in unsupervised sequential object-oriented representation learning. Most of the previous models have been shown to work only on scenes with a few objects. In this paper, we propose SCALOR, a probabilistic generative world model for learning SCALab…

modAL is a modular active learning framework for Python, aimed to make active learning research and practice simpler. Its distinguishing features are (i) clear and modular object oriented design (ii) full compatibility with scikit-learn models and workflows. These features make fast prototyping and easy extensibility p…

Braidlab is a Matlab package for analyzing data using braids. It was designed to be fast, so it can be used on relatively large problems. It uses the object-oriented features of Matlab to provide a class for braids on punctured disks and a class for equivalence classes of simple closed loops. The growth of loops under …

This paper introduces an agent-based artificial financial market in which heterogeneous agents trade one single asset through a realistic trading mechanism for price formation. Agents are initially endowed with a finite amount of cash and a given finite portfolio of assets. There is no money-creation process; the total…

The Dynamic Chain Event Graph (DCEG) is able to depict many classes of discrete random processes exhibiting asymmetries in their developments and context-specific conditional probabilities structures. However, paradoxically, this very generality has so far frustrated its wide application. So in this paper we develop an…

We present a unified method, based on convex optimization, for managing the power produced and consumed by a network of devices over time. We start with the simple setting of optimizing power flows in a static network, and then proceed to the case of optimizing dynamic power flows, i.e., power flows that change with ti…

ODTLearn learns optimal decision trees for predictive and prescriptive tasks.

problem Learning optimal decision trees for high-stakes predictive and prescriptive tasks.
method Mixed-integer optimization framework and object-oriented design.
result Implementation of optimal decision trees for various tasks.

While developing their software, professional object-oriented (OO) software developers keep in their minds an image of the subtyping relation between types in their software. The goal of this paper is to present an observation about the graph of the subtyping relation in Java, namely the observation that, after the add…

StepMix estimates mixture models with covariates for social science applications.

problem Estimating latent classes with covariates in social science models.
method Pseudo-likelihood estimation using one-, two-, and three-step approaches.
result Unified framework for expectation-maximization subroutines.

Perceptual manifolds arise when a neural population responds to an ensemble of sensory signals associated with different physical features (e.g., orientation, pose, scale, location, and intensity) of the same perceptual object. Object recognition and discrimination requires classifying the manifolds in a manner that is…

This work develops fast and accurate ROMs for AM models using OL methods.

problem Achieving specific material properties in AM by manipulating process parameters increases computational load.
method Operator learning (OL) approach with Fourier neural operator (FNO) and DeepONet.
result OL methods offer comparable performance and outperform DNN in accuracy and generalizability.
