Text attribute person search aims to find specific pedestrians through given textual attributes, which is very meaningful in the scene of searching for designated pedestrians through witness descriptions. The key challenge is the…
In a series of recent work, we have introduced a general framework for quantitative reasoning in specification theories. The contribution of this paper is to show how this framework can be applied to yield a robust specification theory for…
Program analysis and verification require decision procedures to reason on theories of data structures. Many problems can be reduced to the satisfiability of sets of ground literals in theory T. If a sound and complete inference system for…
Iterative Learning Control (ILC) schemes can guarantee properties such as asymptotic stability and monotonic error convergence, but do not, in general, ensure adherence to output constraints. The topic of this paper is the design of a…
We propose a method to write and check a specification including quantifiers using behaviors, i.e., input-output pairs. Our method requires the following input from the user: (1) answers to a finite number of queries, each of which presents…
Multimodal Emotion Recognition (MER) has attracted growing attention with the rapid advancement of human-computer interaction. However, different modalities exhibit substantial discrepancies in semantics, quality, and availability, leading…
The global testing problem studied in this paper is to seek a definite answer to whether a system of concurrent black-boxes has an observable behavior in a given finite (but could be huge) set "Bad". We introduce a novel approach to solve…
Independent Component Analysis (ICA) is a foundational tool for unsupervised representation learning, yet its high-dimensional theory remains largely limited to single-component recovery. We develop an asymptotically exact mean-field theory…
We introduce the "Incremental Implicitly-Refined Classi-fication (IIRC)" setup, an extension to the class incremental learning setup where the incoming batches of classes have two granularity levels. i.e., each sample could have a…

It is known that interference alignment (IA) plays an important role in improving the degree of freedom (DoF) of multi-input and multi-output (MIMO) systems. However, most of the traditional IA schemes suffer from the high computational…
We introduce new inference procedures for counterfactual and synthetic control methods for policy evaluation. We recast the causal inference problem as a counterfactual prediction and a structural breaks testing problem. This allows us to…
Many engineered systems must balance competing objectives, such as performance and safety, cost and reliability, or efficiency and sustainability, and are naturally modeled as compositions of interacting subsystems. We study online…
Recent years have witnessed a renewed interest in Boolean function in explaining binary classifiers in the field of explainable AI (XAI). The standard approach of Boolean function is propositional logic. We present a modal language of a…

The analysis of industrial processes, modelled as descriptor systems, is often computationally hard due to the presence of both algebraic couplings and difference equations of high order. In this paper, we introduce a control refinement…
The proportional-integral-derivative (PID) controller and its variants are widely used in control engineering, but they often rely on linearization around equilibrium points and empirical parameter tuning, making them ineffective for…
Conformal prediction is a flexible framework for calibrating machine learning predictions, providing distribution-free statistical guarantees. In outlier detection, this calibration relies on a reference set of labeled inlier data to…
