With the rapid growth of data, how to extract effective information from data is one of the most fundamental problems. In this paper, based on Tikhonov regularization, we propose an effective method for reconstructing the function and its…

Data augmentation is widely used for training a neural network given little labeled data. A common practice of augmentation training is applying a composition of multiple transformations sequentially to the data. Existing augmentation…

This work continues the study of linear error correcting codes against adversarial insertion deletion errors (insdel errors). Previously, the work of Cheng, Guruswami, Haeupler, and Li \cite{CGHL21} showed the existence of asymptotically…

We study the effect of addition on the Hamming weight of a positive integer. Consider the first $2^n$ positive integers, and fix an $\alpha$ among them. We show that if the binary representation of $\alpha$ consists of $\Theta(n)$ blocks of…

We consider the problem of inferring the probability distribution associated with a language, given data consisting of an infinite sequence of elements of the languge. We do this under two assumptions on the algorithms concerned: (i) like a…

We establish tight bounds on the amount on nonuniformity that is necessary for extracting a string with randomness rate 1 from a single source of randomness with lower randomness rate. More precisely, as instantiations of more general…

We introduce the notion of classical fractional query algorithms, which generalize decision trees in the average-case setting, and can potentially perform better than them. We show that the limiting run-time complexity of a natural class of…

Linear systems with many degrees of freedom containing multiplicative and additive noise are considered. The steady state probability distribution for equations of this kind is examined. With multiplicative white noise it is shown that…

Grover's quantum algorithm improves any classical search algorithm. We show how random Gaussian noise at each step of the algorithm can be modelled easily because of the exact recursion formulas available for computing the quantum amplitude…

The well-known middle levels conjecture asserts that for every integer $n\geq 1$, all binary strings of length $2(n+1)$ with exactly $n+1$ many 0s and 1s can be ordered cyclically so that any two consecutive strings differ in swapping the…

We characterize the algorithmic dimensions (i.e., the lower and upper asymptotic densities of information) of infinite binary sequences in terms of the inability of learning functions having an algorithmic constraint to detect patterns in…

We introduce a measure of complexity in terms of the average number of bits per time unit necessary to specify the sequence generated by the system. In random dynamical system, this indicator coincides with the rate K of divergence of…

We briefly survey some concepts related to empirical entropy -- normal numbers, de Bruijn sequences and Markov processes -- and investigate how well it approximates Kolmogorov complexity. Our results suggest $\ell$th-order empirical entropy…

In a previous paper of the authors, we showed that for any polynomials $P_1,\dots,P_k \in \Z[\mathbf{m}]$ with $P_1(0)=\dots=P_k(0)$ and any subset $A$ of the primes in $[N] = \{1,\dots,N\}$ of relative density at least $\delta>0$, one can…

It has been observed that even a small amount of noise introduced into the dataset can significantly degrade the performance of KAN. In this brief note, we aim to quantitatively evaluate the performance when noise is added to the dataset.…

Let $K$ denote prefix-free Kolmogorov Complexity, and $K^A$ denote it relative to an oracle $A$. We show that for any $n$, $K^{\emptyset^{(n)}}$ is definable purely in terms of the unrelativized notion $K$. It was already known that…
