In isotope ratio mass spectrometry (IRMS), any sample (S) measurement is performed as a relative-difference ((S/W)di) from a working-lab-reference (W), but the result is evaluated relative to a recommended-standard (D): (S/D)di. It is thus…
The suitability of a mathematical-model Y = f({Xi}) in serving a purpose whatsoever (should be preset by the function f specific input-to-output variation-rates, i.e.) can be judged beforehand. We thus evaluate here the two apparently…
Our recent formulation of the analytic and variational Slater-Roothaan (SR) method, which uses Gaussian basis sets to variationally express the molecular orbitals, electron density and the one body effective potential of density functional…
Data-Augmentation (DA) is known to improve performance across tasks and datasets. We propose a method to theoretically analyze the effect of DA and study questions such as: how many augmented samples are needed to correctly estimate the…
Recent advances in unsupervised domain adaptation mainly focus on learning shared representations by global distribution alignment without considering class information across domains. The neglect of class information, however, may lead to…
In speech enhancement and source separation, signal-to-noise ratio is a ubiquitous objective measure of denoising/separation quality. A decade ago, the BSS_eval toolkit was developed to give researchers worldwide a way to evaluate the…
Fully test-time adaptation aims at adapting a pre-trained model to the test stream during real-time inference, which is urgently required when the test distribution differs from the training distribution. Several efforts have been devoted…
One of the primary challenges in Semi-supervised Domain Adaptation (SSDA) is the skewed ratio between the number of labeled source and target samples, causing the model to be biased towards the source domain. Recent works in SSDA show that…
Semi-supervised domain adaptation (SSDA) adapts a learner to a new domain by effectively utilizing source domain data and a few labeled target samples. It is a practical yet under-investigated research topic. In this paper, we analyze the…
The distortion-rate performance of certain randomly-designed scalar quantizers is determined. The central results are the mean-squared error distortion and output entropy for quantizing a uniform random variable with thresholds drawn…
Semi-supervised domain adaptation (SSDA) aims to solve tasks in target domain by utilizing transferable information learned from the available source domain and a few labeled target data. However, source data is not always accessible in…
Partial domain adaptation (PDA) is a challenging task in real-world machine learning scenarios. It aims to transfer knowledge from a labeled source domain to a related unlabeled target domain, where the support set of the source label…
It often happens that the same problem presents itself to different communities and the solutions proposed or adopted by those communities are different. We take the case of the variance estimation of the population average treatment effect…
Scaling the amount of data used for supervied fine-tuning(SFT) does not guarantee the proportional gains in model performance, highlighting a critical need to understand what makes training samples effective. This work identifies two…
A major family of sufficient dimension reduction (SDR) methods, called inverse regression, commonly require the distribution of the predictor $X$ to have a linear $E(X|\beta^\mathsf{T}X)$ and a degenerate $\mathrm{var}(X|\beta^\mathsf{T}X)$…
The median absolute deviation is a widely used robust measure of statistical dispersion. Using a scale constant, we can use it as an asymptotically consistent estimator for the standard deviation under normality. For finite samples, the…
Spatial semantic segmentation of sound scenes (S5) consists of jointly performing audio source separation and sound event classification from a multichannel audio mixture. Evaluating S5 systems with separation and classification metrics…
Evaluation of a variable Yd from certain measured variable(s) Xi(s), by making use of their system-specific-relationship (SSR), is generally referred as the indirect measurement. Naturally the SSR may stand for a simple data-translation…
Data augmentation (DA) aims to generate constrained and diversified data to improve classifiers in Low-Resource Classification (LRC). Previous studies mostly use a fine-tuned Language Model (LM) to strengthen the constraints but ignore the…
We have investigated how the relative elemental abundances inferred from the solar upper atmosphere are affected by uncertainties in the dielectronic recombination (DR) rate coefficients used to analyze the spectra. We find that the…
