In this paper, we study VC-density over indiscernible sequences (denoted VC_ind-density). We answer an open question in [1], showing that VC_ind-density is always integer valued. We also show that VC_ind-density and dp-rank coincide in the…
If $T$ has dependent dividing, then the burden agrees with the dp-rank witnessed by NIP formulas. We use this observation to prove that if $T$ has dependent dividing, then the burden is sub-additive. We also state a connection between the…
The main result of this article is sub-additivity of the dp-rank. We also show that the study of theories of finite dp-rank can not be reduced to the study of its dp-minimal types, and discuss the possible relations between dp-rank and…
We show that the VC-density of any partitioned formula in a pair of ordered vector spaces is bounded above by twice the number of parameter variables. We also show that this bound is optimal and, as a by-product, we prove that no dense pair…
A theory $T$ is shown to have an ICT pattern of depth $k$ in variables $\xbar$ iff it interprets some $k$-maximum VC class in $|\xbar|$ parameters.
The widely applied density peak clustering (DPC) algorithm makes an intuitive cluster formation assumption that cluster centers are often surrounded by data points with lower local density and far away from other data points with higher…
We recast the problem of calculating Vapnik-Chervonenkis (VC) density into one of counting types, and thereby calculate bounds (often optimal) on the VC density for some weakly o-minimal, weakly quasi-o-minimal, and $P$-minimal theories.
We investigate the VC-dimension of the perceptron and simple two-layer networks like the committee- and the parity-machine with weights restricted to values $\pm1$. For binary inputs, the VC-dimension is determined by atypical pattern sets,…
For integers $k\geq 3,d\geq 2,$ we consider the abundance property of pinned $k$-point patterns occurring in $E\subseteq \mathbb R^d$ with positive upper density $\delta(E)$. We show that for any fixed $k$-point pattern $V$, there is a set…
A set of $N$ points is chosen randomly in a $D$-dimensional volume $V=a^D$, with periodic boundary conditions. For each point $i$, its distance $d_i$ is found to its nearest neighbour. Then, the maximal value is found, $d_{max}=max(d_i,…
This paper presents some finite combinatorics of set systems with applications to model theory, particularly the study of dependent theories. There are two main results. First, we give a way of producing lower bounds on VC_ind-density, and…
Under the name prime decomposition (pd), a unique decomposition of an arbitrary $N$-dimensional density matrix $\rho$ into a sum of seperable density matrices with dimensions given by the coprime factors of $N$ is introduced. For a class of…
The rank of neural networks measures information flowing across layers. It is an instance of a key structural condition that applies across broad domains of machine learning. In particular, the assumption of low-rank feature representations…
The architectures of deep neural networks (DNN) rely heavily on the underlying grid structure of variables, for instance, the lattice of pixels in an image. For general high dimensional data with variables not associated with a grid, the…
The dependency core calculus (DCC), a simple extension of the computational lambda calculus, captures a common notion of dependency that arises in many programming language settings. This notion of dependency is closely related to the…
The set of indices that correspond to the positive entries of a sequence of numbers is called its positivity set. In this paper, we study the density of the positivity set of a given linear recurrence sequence, that is the question of how…
While the success of deep neural networks (DNNs) is well-established across a variety of domains, our ability to explain and interpret these methods is limited. Unlike previously proposed local methods which try to explain particular…
Shannon entropy is not the only entropy that is relevant to machine-learning datasets, nor possibly even the most important one. Traditional entropies such as Shannon entropy capture information represented by elements' frequencies but not…
One basic requirement of many studies is the necessity of classifying data. Clustering is a proposed method for summarizing networks. Clustering methods can be divided into two categories named model-based approaches and algorithmic…
In "VC density in some theories without the independence property" the authors asked whether any partial order of finite width has the VC1 property (i.e. every formula in one variable has UDTFS in one parameter). We give a negative answer…
