A time series is a sequence of data items; typical examples are videos, stock ticker data, or streams of temperature measurements. Quite some research has been devoted to comparing and indexing simple time series, i.e., time series where…

This paper concerns a method of testing equality of distribution of random convex compact sets and the way how to use the test to distinguish between two realisations of general random sets. The family of metrics on the space of…

We consider generalizations of classical function spaces by requiring that a holomorphic in ${\Omega}$ function satisfies some property when we approach from ${\Omega}$, not the whole boundary, but only a part of it. These spaces endowed…

For a fixed set $X$, an arbitrary \textit{weight structure} $d \in [0,\infty]^{X \times X}$ can be interpreted as a distance assignment between pairs of points on $X$. Restrictions (i.e. \textit{metric axioms}) on the behaviour of any such…

We introduce the discrete Fr\'echet gap and its variants as an alternative measure of similarity between polygonal curves. We believe that for some applications the new measure (and its variants) may better reflect our intuitive notion of…

Generalized equations are problems emerging in contexts of modern variational analysis as an adequate formalism to treat such issues as constraint systems, optimality and equilibrium conditions, variational inequalities, differential…

Modeling place functions from a computational perspective is a prevalent research topic. Trajectory embedding, as a neural-network-backed dimension reduction technology, allows the possibility to put places with similar social functions at…

We introduce a flexible framework that produces high-quality almost-exact matches for causal inference. Most prior work in matching uses ad-hoc distance metrics, often leading to poor quality matches, particularly when there are irrelevant…

In 2007 H. Long-Guang and Z. Xian, [H. Long-Guang and Z. Xian, Cone Metric Spaces and Fixed Point Theorems of Contractive Mapping, J. Math. Anal. Appl., 322(2007), 1468-1476], generalized the concept of a metric space, by introducing cone…

The Fr\'echet distance is a popular similarity measure that is well-understood for polygonal curves in $\mathbb{R}^d$: near-quadratic time algorithms exist, and conditional lower bounds suggest that these results cannot be improved…

We research proximinality of $\mu$-sequentially compact sets and $\mu$-compact sets in measurable function spaces. Next we show a correspondence between the Kadec-Klee property for convergence in measure and $\mu$-compactness of the sets in…

Generalized dimensions of multifractal measures are usually seen as static objects, related to the scaling properties of suitable partition functions, or moments of measures of cells. When these measures are invariant for the flow of a…

The Gromov--Hausdorff distance (hereinafter referred to as the GH-distance) is a measure of non-isometricity of metric spaces. In this paper, we study a modification of this distance that also takes topological differences into account. The…

We define a generalization of the fixed point set, called the bounded fixed set, for a group acting by isometries on a metric space. An analogue of the P. A. Smith theorem is proved for metric spaces of finite asymptotic dimension, which…

The conventional definition of a topological metric over a space specifies properties that must be obeyed by any measure of "how separated" two points in that space are. Here it is shown how to extend that definition, and in particular the…

Developing a robust generalization measure for the performance of machine learning models is an important and challenging task. A lot of recent research in the area focuses on the model decision boundary when predicting generalization. In…

In this paper, we state and prove a generalization of \'Ciri\'c fixed point theorems in metric space by using a new generalized quasi-contractive map. These theorems extend other well known fundamental metrical fixed point theorems in the…

Linear regression is widely used to model relationships between responses and predictors. In modern applications, one encounters data where the responses are non-Euclidean random objects situated in a metric space, paired with Euclidean…

Approximation of entire functions by their pad\'e approximants has been examined in the past. It is true that generically such an approximation holds. However, examining this problem from another viewpoint, we obtain stronger generic…

For sets $\mathcal Q$ and $\mathcal Y$, the generalized Fr\'echet mean $m \in \mathcal Q$ of a random variable $Y$, which has values in $\mathcal Y$, is any minimizer of $q\mapsto \mathbb E[\mathfrak c(q,Y)]$, where $\mathfrak c \colon…
