Recent methods for estimating sparse undirected graphs for real-valued data in high dimensional problems rely heavily on the assumption of normality. We show how to use a semiparametric Gaussian copula--or "nonparanormal"--for high…

A paraconsistent type theory (an extension of a fragment of intuitionistic type theory by adding opposite types) is here extended by adding co-function types. It is shown that, in the extended paraconsistent type system, the opposite type…

Someone knowledgeable in nonstandard analysis may get the feeling that in the nonlinear theory of generalized functions, too often one works directly on the nets and spends effort to obtain results that should be clear from general…

The paper discusses the role of interpretations, understood as multifunctions that preserve and reflect logical consequence, as refinement witnesses in the general setting of pi-institutions. This leads to a smooth generalization of the…

In this paper we consider probabilistic normed spaces as defined by Alsina, Sklar, and Schweizer, but equipped with non necessarily continuous triangle functions. Such spaces endow a generalized topology that is Fr\'echet-separable,…

Adding interpretability to word embeddings represents an area of active research in text representation. Recent work has explored thepotential of embedding words via so-called polar dimensions (e.g. good vs. bad, correct vs. wrong).…

Ultrafunctions are a particular class of functions defined on a Non Archimedean field E. They have been introduced and studied in some previous works. In this paper we develop the notion of fine ultrafunctions which improves the older…

We propose another interpretation of well-known derivatives computations from regular expressions, due to Brzozowski, Antimirov or Lombardy and Sakarovitch, in order to abstract the underlying data structures (e.g. sets or linear…

We give interpretations of some known key agreement protocols in the framework of category theory and in this way we give a method of constructing of many new key agreement protocols.

Function (linear) spaces on which an arbitrary function operates (i.e. the space is stable w.r.t. the pointwise unary operation defined by the function) were investigated, for continuous real or complex operations, by deLeeuw-Katznelson,…

In this essay we examine some aspects of the classical theory of definition as codified in Aristotle's \emph{Topics} and Porphyry's \emph{Eisagog\^e} in the light of the way definition is carried out in modern mathematical practice. Our…

I generalize acyclic deterministic structural causal models to the nondeterministic case and argue that this offers an improved semantics for counterfactuals. The standard, deterministic, semantics developed by Halpern (and based on the…

In this paper, we construct a new unpredictable function. Our approach is based on adapting the concept of symbolic dynamics to introduce a map on the space of infinite sequences generated by the discrete distribution. We show that there…

We present a spreadsheet implementation, extended with sheet-defined functions, that allows users to define functions using only standard spreadsheet concepts such as cells, formulas and references, requiring no new syntax. This implements…
