Informed Sub-Sampling MCMC: Approximate Bayesian Inference for Large Datasets
This paper introduces a framework for speeding up Bayesian inference conducted in presence of large datasets. We design a Markov chain whose transition kernel uses an (unknown) fraction of (fixed size) of the available data that is randomly refreshed throughout the algorithm. Inspired by the Approximate Bayesian Comp...

Efficient Regret Minimization in Non-Convex Games
We consider regret minimization in repeated games with non-convex loss functions. Minimizing the standard notion of regret is computationally intractable. Thus, we define a natural notion of regret which permits efficient optimization and generalizes offline guarantees for convergence to an approximate local optimum....

Towards a fractal cohomology: Spectra of Polya--Hilbert operators, regularized determinants and Riemann zeros
Emil Artin defined a zeta function for algebraic curves over finite fields and made a conjecture about them analogous to the famous Riemann hypothesis. This and other conjectures about these zeta functions would come to be called the Weil conjectures, which were proved by Weil for curves and later, by Deligne for var...

Axion dark matter search using the storage ring EDM method
We propose using the storage ring EDM method to search for the axion dark matter induced EDM oscillation in nucleons. The method uses a combination of B and E-fields to produce a resonance between the $g-2$ spin precession frequency and the background axion field oscillation to greatly enhance sensitivity to it.

Identifying Harm Events in Clinical Care through Medical Narratives
Preventable medical errors are estimated to be among the leading causes of injury and death in the United States. To prevent such errors, healthcare systems have implemented patient safety and incident reporting systems. These systems enable clinicians to report unsafe conditions and cases where patients have been ha...

Deep Self-Paced Learning for Person Re-Identification
Person re-identification (Re-ID) usually suffers from noisy samples with background clutter and mutual occlusion, which makes it extremely difficult to distinguish different individuals across the disjoint camera views. In this paper, we propose a novel deep self-paced learning (DSPL) algorithm to alleviate this prob...

Closed-form approximations in derivatives pricing: The Kristensen-Mele approach
Kristensen and Mele (2011) developed a new approach to obtain closed-form approximations to continuous-time derivatives pricing models. The approach uses a power series expansion of the pricing bias between an intractable model and some known auxiliary model. Since the resulting approximation formula has closed-form ...

On the magnitude function of domains in Euclidean space
We study Leinster's notion of magnitude for a compact metric space. For a smooth, compact domain $X\subset \mathbb{R}^{2m-1}$, we find geometric significance in the function $\mathcal{M}_X(R) = \mathrm{mag}(R\cdot X)$. The function $\mathcal{M}_X$ extends from the positive half-line to a meromorphic function in the c...

Minimum edge cuts of distance-regular and strongly regular digraphs
In this paper, we show that the edge connectivity of a distance-regular digraph $\Gamma$ with valency $k$ is $k$ and for $k>2$, any minimum edge cut of $\Gamma$ is the set of all edges going into (or coming out of) a single vertex. Moreover we show that the same result holds for strongly regular digraphs. These resul...

Quality Enhancement by Weighted Rank Aggregation of Crowd Opinion
Expertise of annotators has a major role in crowdsourcing based opinion aggregation models. In such frameworks, accuracy and biasness of annotators are occasionally taken as important features and based on them priority of the annotators are assigned. But instead of relying on a single feature, multiple features can ...

Heterogeneous elastic plates with in-plane modulation of the target curvature and applications to thin gel sheets
We rigorously derive a Kirchhoff plate theory, via $\Gamma$-convergence, from a three-di\-men\-sio\-nal model that describes the finite elasticity of an elastically heterogeneous, thin sheet. The heterogeneity in the elastic properties of the material results in a spontaneous strain that depends on both the thickness...

A generalisation of Kani-Rosen decomposition theorem for Jacobian varieties
In this short paper we generalise a theorem due to Kani and Rosen on decomposition of Jacobian varieties of Riemann surfaces with group action. This generalisation extends the set of Jacobians for which it is possible to obtain an isogeny decomposition where all the factors are Jacobians.

Optimal group testing designs for estimating prevalence with uncertain testing errors
We construct optimal designs for group testing experiments where the goal is to estimate the prevalence of a trait by using a test with uncertain sensitivity and specificity. Using optimal design theory for approximate designs, we show that the most efficient design for simultaneously estimating the prevalence, sensi...

Duality of Graphical Models and Tensor Networks
In this article we show the duality between tensor networks and undirected graphical models with discrete variables. We study tensor networks on hypergraphs, which we call tensor hypernetworks. We show that the tensor hypernetwork on a hypergraph exactly corresponds to the graphical model given by the dual hypergraph...

Data Interpolations in Deep Generative Models under Non-Simply-Connected Manifold Topology
Exploiting the deep generative model's remarkable ability of learning the data-manifold structure, some recent researches proposed a geometric data interpolation method based on the geodesic curves on the learned data-manifold. However, this interpolation method often gives poor results due to a topological differenc...

Large deformations of the Tracy-Widom distribution I. Non-oscillatory asymptotics
We analyze the left-tail asymptotics of deformed Tracy-Widom distribution functions describing the fluctuations of the largest eigenvalue in invariant random matrix ensembles after removing each soft edge eigenvalue independently with probability $1-\gamma\in[0,1]$. As $\gamma$ varies, a transition from Tracy-Widom s...

Too Trivial To Test? An Inverse View on Defect Prediction to Identify Methods with Low Fault Risk
Background. Test resources are usually limited and therefore it is often not possible to completely test an application before a release. To cope with the problem of scarce resources, development teams can apply defect prediction to identify fault-prone code regions. However, defect prediction tends to low precision ...

Dynamical phase transitions in sampling complexity
We make the case for studying the complexity of approximately simulating (sampling) quantum systems for reasons beyond that of quantum computational supremacy, such as diagnosing phase transitions. We consider the sampling complexity as a function of time $t$ due to evolution generated by spatially local quadratic bo...
