Classical Principal Component Analysis (PCA) approximates data in terms of projections on a small number of orthogonal vectors. There are simple procedures to efficiently compute various functions of the data from the PCA approximation. The…
The boom in visualization generation tools has significantly lowered the threshold for chart authoring. Nevertheless, chart authors with an insufficient understanding of perceptual theories may encounter difficulties in evaluating the…
Designing a visualization is often a process of iterative refinement where the designer improves a chart over time by adding features, improving encodings, and fixing mistakes. However, effective design requires external critique and…
The paper describes an approach to measuring convergence of an algorithm to its result in terms of an entropy-like function of partitions of its inputs of a given length. The goal is to look at the algorithmic data processing from the…
For a graph representation of a dataset, a straightforward normality measure for a sample can be its graph degree. Considering a weighted graph, degree of a sample is the sum of the corresponding row's values in a similarity matrix. The…
Understanding design decisions in relation to the future occupants of a building is a crucial part of good design. However, limitations in tools and expertise hinder meaningful human-centric decisions during the design process. In this…
In this paper, we introduce a novel regularization scheme on contrastive language-image pre-trained (CLIP) medical vision models. Our approach is based on the observation that on many medical imaging tasks text tokens should only describe a…
We evaluated the impact of changing the observation scale over the entropy measures for text descriptions. MIDI coded Music, computer code and two human natural languages were studied at the scale of characters, words, and at the…

Pose graph optimization is a non-convex optimization problem encountered in many areas of robotics perception. Its convergence to an accurate solution is conditioned by two factors: the non-linearity of the cost function in use and the…
A measure for the complexity of a differentiable function f(x) on an interval is introduced. It is based on approximations of the function by piecewise constant functions. The measure takes into account the quality of the approximation and…
{\em Personalized PageRank (PPR)} stands as a fundamental proximity measure in graph mining. Since computing an exact SSPPR query answer is prohibitive, most existing solutions turn to approximate queries with guarantees. The…
The concept of entropy rate for a dynamical process on a graph is introduced. We study diffusion processes where the node degrees are used as a local information by the random walkers. We describe analitically and numerically how the degree…
