We present a new family of zero-field Ising models over NN binary variables/spins obtained by consecutive "gluing" of planar and O(1)O(1)-sized components and subsets of at most three vertices into a tree. The polynomial-time algorithm of the dynamic programming type for solving exact inference (computing partition func…

The abstract formulates and proves a categorification of Robertson's conjecture.

method Categorification of Robertson's conjecture and analysis of configuration spaces of graphs.
result Existence of a finite list of atomic graphs generating the homology of configuration spaces of graphs.

In this paper we consider minors of ribbon graphs (or, equivalently, cellularly embedded graphs). The theory of minors of ribbon graphs differs from that of graphs in that contracting loops is necessary and doing this can create additional vertices and components. Thus the ribbon graph minor relation is incompatible wi…

A new oversampling framework generates minority samples by perturbing majority classes.

problem Oversampling in imbalanced classification often neglects majority classes, leading to samples spread across the minority space.
method Introduces a counterfactual objective to generate new minority samples by perturbing majority samples.
result Generated minority samples are near the decision boundary and significantly outperform state-of-the-art methods.

We show that the difference between the Seifert genus and the topological 4-genus of a prime positive braid knot is bounded from below by an affine function of the minimal number of strands among positive braid representatives of the knot. We deduce that among prime positive braid knots, the property of having such a g…

In this paper we study the continuum time dynamics of a stock in a market where agents behavior is modeled by a Minority Game and a Grand Canonical Minority Game. The dynamics derived is a generalized geometric Brownian motion; from the Black & Scholes formula the calibration of both the Minority Game and the Grand Can…

This paper gives a critical account of the minority game literature. The minority game is a simple congestion game: players need to choose between two options, and those who have selected the option chosen by the minority win. The learning model proposed in this literature seems to differ markedly from the learning mod…

The complement of a non-separating planar graph contains a K_n minor.

problem Characterizing the structure of complements of planar graphs.
method Analyzing the structure of complements of non-separating planar graphs and using examples to illustrate hypotheses.
result The order 2n-3 is the lowest possible for a non-separating planar graph whose complement contains a K_n minor.

The paper is partially withdrawn: in its current form, Lemma 2.3 is false, so that our proof of Theorem A and Proposition B has an important gap. We were unable to fix it yet. Any help is most welcome. We prove that the restriction of surface minority to fiber surfaces of divides is a well-quasi-order. Here surface min…

This survey of some of the more topological aspects of the placement problem for complex curves in complex surfaces was originally published in L'Enseignement Mathematique 29 (1983). The present LaTeXed redaction corrects several typographical errors without, I hope, introducing new ones; some minor emendations and ref…

Overparameterized models can worsen minority group errors even when overall test error improves.

problem Overparameterization exacerbates spurious correlations, harming minority groups.
method Simulations and experiments on image datasets, theoretical analysis of linear models.
result Subsampling the majority group can achieve low minority error in overparameterized models.

We introduce the minority game theory for two kinds of the Korean treasury bond (KTB) in Korean futures exchange markets. Since we discuss numerically the standard deviation and the global efficiency for an arbitrary strategy, our case is found to be approximate to the majority game. Our result presented will be compar…

Imbalanced data classification problem has always been a popular topic in the field of machine learning research. In order to balance the samples between majority and minority class. Oversampling algorithm is used to synthesize new minority class samples, but it could bring in noise. Pointing to the noise problems, thi…
