There is evidence that biological synapses have only a fixed number of discrete weight states. Memory storage with such synapses behaves quite differently from synapses with unbounded, continuous weights as old memories are automatically…

A generalized parameterization of the Skyrme effective force is discussed. Preliminary results are presented for infinite symmetric and asymmetric nuclear matter. In particular, it is shown that an enlarged density dependence based on two…

We give a general exposition of model theoretic connected components of groups. We show that if a group G has NIP, then there exists the smallest invariant (over some small set) subgroup of G with bounded index (Theorem 5.3). This result…

We study NSOP$_{1}$ theories. We define Kim-independence, which generalizes non-forking independence in simple theories and corresponds to non-forking at a generic scale. We show that Kim-independence satisfies a version of Kim's lemma,…

Many tools exist to detect dependence between random variables, a core question across a wide range of machine learning, statistical, and scientific endeavors. Although several statistical tests guarantee eventual detection of any…

We introduce the notion of strongly Lech-independent ideals as a generalization of Lech-independent ideals defined by Lech and Hanes, and use this notion to derive inequalities on multiplicities of ideals. In particular we prove that if…

Recent years have witnessed the emergence of a variety of post-hoc interpretations that aim to uncover how natural language processing (NLP) models make predictions. Despite the surge of new interpretation methods, it remains an open…

We discuss the construction of component importance measures for binary coherent reliability systems from known stochastic dependence measures by measuring the dependence between system and component failures. We treat both the…

We introduce the fragility spectrum, a quantitative framework to measure the resilience of model-theoretic properties (e.g., stability, NIP, NTP$_2$, decidability) under language expansions. The core is the fragility index…

A common approach to explaining NLP models is to use importance measures that express which tokens are important for a prediction. Unfortunately, such explanations are often wrong despite being persuasive. Therefore, it is essential to…

We consider existentially closed fields with several orderings, valuations, and $p$-valuations. We show that these structures are NTP$_2$ of finite burden, but usually have the independence property. Moreover, forking agrees with dividing,…

Most network planning problems in literature consider metrics such as cost, availability, and other technology-aware attributes. However, network operators now face new challenges in designing their networks to minimize their dependencies…

We consider a deterministic system with two conserved quantities and infinity many invariant measures. However the systems possess a unique invariant measure when enough stochastic forcing and balancing dissipation are added. We then show…
