Title: Monaural Singing Voice Separation with Skip-Filtering Connections and Recurrent Inference of Time-Frequency Mask, Abstract: Singing voice separation based on deep learning relies on the usage of time-frequency masking. In many cases the masking process is not a learnable function or is not encapsulated into the ...

Title: Confidence Bands for Coefficients in High Dimensional Linear Models with Error-in-variables, Abstract: We study high-dimensional linear models with error-in-variables. Such models are motivated by various applications in econometrics, finance and genetics. These models are challenging because of the need to acco...

Title: On the Fourth Power Moment of Fourier Coefficients of Cusp Form, Abstract: Let $a(n)$ be the Fourier coefficients of a holomorphic cusp form of weight $\kappa=2n\geqslant12$ for the full modular group and $A(x)=\sum\limits_{n\leqslant x}a(n)$. In this paper, we establish an asymptotic formula of the fourth power...

Title: Provable benefits of representation learning, Abstract: There is general consensus that learning representations is useful for a variety of reasons, e.g. efficient use of labeled data (semi-supervised learning), transfer learning and understanding hidden structure of data. Popular techniques for representation l...

Title: Application of Self-Play Reinforcement Learning to a Four-Player Game of Imperfect Information, Abstract: We introduce a new virtual environment for simulating a card game known as "Big 2". This is a four-player game of imperfect information with a relatively complicated action space (being allowed to play 1,2,3...
