We introduce Noisy Feature Mixup (NFM), an inexpensive yet effective method for data augmentation that combines the best of interpolation based training and noise injection schemes. Rather than training with convex combinations of pairs of…

This paper studies the asymptotic behavior of the Fisher information for a Levy process discretely sampled at an increasing frequency. We show that it is possible to distinguish not only the continuous part of the process from its jumps…

Weak values are typically obtained experimentally by performing weak measurements, which involve weak interactions between the measured system and a probe. However, the determination of weak values does not necessarily require weak…

We consider the scenario where important signals are not strong enough to be separable from a large amount of noise. Such weak signals commonly exist in large-scale data analysis and play vital roles in many biomedical applications.…

We combine two Gaussianization techniques - Wavelet Non-Linear Wiener Filter (WNLWF) and density reconstruction - to quantify the recovery of Fisher information that is lost in the gravitational collapse. We compute a displacement fields,…

A simple formula to read out the weak value from the wave function of the measuring device after the postselection with the initial Gaussian profile is proposed. We apply this formula for the weak value to the classical experiment of the…

Existing weak supervision approaches use all the data covered by weak signals to train a classifier. We show both theoretically and empirically that this is not always optimal. Intuitively, there is a tradeoff between the amount of…
