Demystifying MPNNs: Message Passing as Merely Efficient Matrix Multiplication
While Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) have achieved remarkable success, their design largely relies on empirical intuition rather than theoretical understanding. In this paper, we present a comprehensive analysis of GNN behavior through three fundamental aspects: (1) we establish that \textbf{$k$-layer} Message Passing Ne...

Push-the-Boundary: Boundary-aware Feature Propagation for Semantic Segmentation of 3D Point Clouds
Feedforward fully convolutional neural networks currently dominate in semantic segmentation of 3D point clouds. Despite their great success, they suffer from the loss of local information at low-level layers, posing significant challenges to accurate scene segmentation and precise object boundary delineation. Prior wor...

Joint, Partially-joint, and Individual Independent Component Analysis in Multi-Subject fMRI Data
Objective: Joint analysis of multi-subject brain imaging datasets has wide applications in biomedical engineering. In these datasets, some sources belong to all subjects (joint), a subset of subjects (partially-joint), or a single subject (individual). In this paper, this source model is referred to as joint/partially-...

Undersampling is a Minimax Optimal Robustness Intervention in Nonparametric Classification

This is rather surprising, since undersampling algorithms discard excess ...

This paper introduces a new learning paradigm called eXtreme Regression (XR) whose objective is to accurately predict the numerical degrees of relevance of an extremely large number of labels to a data point. XR can provide elegant solutions to many large-scale ranking and recommendation applications including Dynamic ...

Robust Stochastic Bayesian Games for Behavior Space Coverage
A key challenge in multi-agent systems is the design of intelligent agents solving real-world tasks in close interaction with other agents (e.g. humans), thereby being confronted with a variety of behavioral variations and limited knowledge about the true behaviors of observed agents. The practicability of existing wor...

Bounds on Locally Recoverable Codes with Multiple Recovering Sets
A locally recoverable code (LRC code) is a code over a finite alphabet such that every symbol in the encoding is a function of a small number of other symbols that form a recovering set. Bounds on the rate and distance of such codes have been extensively studied in the literature. In this paper we derive upper bounds o...
