We study the problem of efficient online multiclass linear classification with bandit feedback, where all examples belong to one of K classes and lie in the d-dimensional Euclidean space. Previous works have left open the challenge of designing efficient algorithms with finite mistake bounds when the data is linear…
While there has been much recent progress using deep learning techniques to separate speech and music audio signals, these systems typically require large collections of isolated sources during the training process. When extending audio source separation algorithms to more general domains such as environmental monitori…
One approach to monitoring a dynamic system relies on decomposition of the system into weakly interacting subsystems. An earlier paper introduced a notion of weak interaction called separability, and showed that it leads to exact propagation of marginals for prediction. This paper addresses two questions left open by t…
Nuclear norm minimization (NNM) has recently gained significant attention for its use in rank minimization problems. Similar to compressed sensing, using null space characterizations, recovery thresholds for NNM have been studied in \cite{arxiv,Recht_Xu_Hassibi}. However simulations show that the thresholds are far fro…
We introduce a notion of a weak Poisson structure on a manifold M modeled on a locally convex space. This is done by specifying a Poisson bracket on a subalgebra $\cA \subeq C^\infty(M)$ which has to satisfy a non-degeneracy condition (the differentials of elements of $\cA$ separate tangent vectors) and we postulate …
In this note we give sufficient conditions to ensure that the weak Finsler structure of a complete Ck Finsler manifold M is determined by the normed algebra Cbk(M) of all real-valued, bounded and Ck smooth functions with bounded derivative defined on M. As a consequence, we obtain: (i) the Finsler structu…
This study addresses an issue of co-adaptation between a feature extractor and a classifier in a neural network. A naive joint optimization of a feature extractor and a classifier often brings situations in which an excessively complex feature distribution adapted to a very specific classifier degrades the test perform…
The study examines different types of equilibria for stopping problems in one-dimensional diffusion processes.
problem Characterizing and comparing different types of equilibria for time-inconsistent stopping problems.
method Analyzes log sub-additive discount functions and one-dimensional diffusion processes to derive necessary and sufficient conditions for weak equilibria and other types of equilibria.
result Conditions for weak equilibria and their implications for other types of equilibria are provided.
We propose a deep-learning approach based on generative adversarial networks (GANs) to reduce noise in weak lensing mass maps under realistic conditions. We apply image-to-image translation using conditional GANs to the mass map obtained from the first-year data of Subaru Hyper Suprime-Cam (HSC) survey. We train the co…
Garside groupoids, as recently introduced by Krammer, generalise Garside groups. A weak Garside group is a group that is equivalent as a category to a Garside groupoid. We show that any periodic loop in a Garside groupoid $\CG$ may be viewed as a Garside element for a certain Garside structure on another Garside groupo…
We establish the positive energy theorem for weak asymptotically anti-de Sitter initial data sets with distributional curvature under the weak dominant energy condition.
As machine learning models continue to increase in complexity, collecting large hand-labeled training sets has become one of the biggest roadblocks in practice. Instead, weaker forms of supervision that provide noisier but cheaper labels are often used. However, these weak supervision sources have diverse and unknown a…
In the context of large financial markets we formulate the notion of \emph{no asymptotic free lunch with vanishing risk} (NAFLVR), under which we can prove a version of the fundamental theorem of asset pricing (FTAP) in markets with an (even uncountably) infinite number of assets, as it is for instance the case in bond…
