A complete classification of two-dimensional algebras over algebraically closed fields is provided
Deviations from Bayesian updating are traditionally categorized as biases, errors, or fallacies, thus implying their inherent ``sub-optimality.'' We offer a more nuanced view. We demonstrate that, in learning problems with misspecified…
We survey existing approaches to the formal verification of statecharts using model checking. Although the semantics and subset of statecharts used in each approach varies considerably, along with the model checkers and their specification…
This work initiates a systematic investigation of testing high-dimensional structured distributions by focusing on testing Bayesian networks -- the prototypical family of directed graphical models. A Bayesian network is defined by a…

Educators teaching entry-level university engineering modules face the challenge of identifying which topics students find most difficult and how to support diverse student needs effectively. This study demonstrates a rigorous yet…
There are many issues that can cause problems when attempting to infer model parameters from data. Data and models are both imperfect, and as such there are multiple scenarios in which standard methods of inference will lead to misleading…

New cases of the multiplicity conjecture are considered.
Software is highly contextual. While there are cross-cutting `global' lessons, individual software projects exhibit many `local' properties. This data heterogeneity makes drawing local conclusions from global data dangerous. A key research…
Results of our previous note, "Gerbes of chiral differential operators" (Math. Res. Letters, 7(2000), 55-66), are discussed in the algebraic category.
Multiple measures, such as WEAT or MAC, attempt to quantify the magnitude of bias present in word embeddings in terms of a single-number metric. However, such metrics and the related statistical significance calculations rely on treating…

We give a proof of some small weight and level cases of Serre's conjecture.
This paper examines the "K2" network scoring metric of Cooper and Herskovits. It shows counterintuitive results from applying this metric to simple networks. One family of noninformative priors is suggested for assigning equal scores to…
The Bayesian machine learning is a promising tool for the evaluation of nuclear fission data but its potential capability has not been fully realized. We attempt to optimize the performances of the multilayer Bayesian neural networks for…
Bayesian methods for modelling and inference are being increasingly used in the cryospheric sciences, and glaciology in particular. Here, we present a review of recent works in glaciology that adopt a Bayesian approach when conducting an…
