Spectral dimensionality reduction algorithms are widely used in numerous domains, including for recognition, segmentation, tracking and visualization. However, despite their popularity, these algorithms suffer from a major limitation known…
The nearest neighbor problem is defined as follows: Given a set $P$ of $n$ points in some metric space $(X,D)$, build a data structure that, given any point $q$, returns a point in $P$ that is closest to $q$ (its "nearest neighbor" in $P$).…
We consider the hashing mechanism for constructing binary embeddings, that involves pseudo-random projections followed by nonlinear (sign function) mappings. The pseudo-random projection is described by a matrix, where not all entries are…
Information networks are ubiquitous and are ideal for modeling relational data. Networks being sparse and irregular, network embedding algorithms have caught the attention of many researchers, who came up with numerous embeddings algorithms…
We study integration and $L_2$-approximation on countable tensor products of function spaces of increasing smoothness. We obtain upper and lower bounds for the minimal errors, which are sharp in many cases including, e.g., Korobov, Walsh,…
Embedding complex objects as vectors in low dimensional spaces is a longstanding problem in machine learning. We propose in this work an extension of that approach, which consists in embedding objects as elliptical probability…

Partitionings (or segmentations) divide a given domain into disjoint connected regions whose union forms again the entire domain. Multi-dimensional partitionings occur, for example, when analyzing parameter spaces of simulation models,…

Dimensionality reduction methods such as t-SNE are designed to preserve local neighborhood structure but do not explicitly account for how probability mass is distributed, often leading to distortions of data density. We reformulate…
We present a locality preserving loss (LPL) that improves the alignment between vector space embeddings while separating uncorrelated representations. Given two pretrained embedding manifolds, LPL optimizes a model to project an embedding…
This paper provides a theoretical framework for interpreting acoustic neighbor embeddings, which are representations of the phonetic content of variable-width audio or text in a fixed-dimensional embedding space. A probabilistic…
There is recent interest in compressing data sets for non-sequential settings, where lack of obvious orderings on their data space, require notions of data equivalences to be considered. For example, Varshney & Goyal (DCC, 2006) considered…
Sentence embeddings can be decoded to give approximations of the original texts used to create them. We explore this effect in the context of text simplification, demonstrating that reconstructed text embeddings preserve complexity levels.…
Oblivious low-distortion subspace embeddings are a crucial building block for numerical linear algebra problems. We show for any real $p, 1 \leq p < \infty$, given a matrix $M \in \mathbb{R}^{n \times d}$ with $n \gg d$, with constant…
We give two new applications of an observation from \cite{ADFGW11}. The first is an almost linear sized constant time data structure for reporting very large distances in undirected graphs. The second is a generic transformation of results…
We use some of the largest order statistics of the random projections of a reference signal to construct a binary embedding that is adapted to signals correlated with such signal. The embedding is characterized from the analytical…
