We define a class of Euclidean distances on weighted graphs, enabling to perform thermodynamic soft graph clustering. The class can be constructed form the "raw coordinates" encountered in spectral clustering, and can be extended by means…

Clustering is a fundamental unsupervised learning approach. Many clustering algorithms -- such as $k$-means -- rely on the euclidean distance as a similarity measure, which is often not the most relevant metric for high dimensional data…

Using the calculus of variations, we prove that a Euclidean set of fixed Gaussian measure that nearly maximizes Gaussian noise stability is close to a half space. The main result proves a modification of a conjecture of Eldan from 2013: a…

Cross-entropy loss has long been the standard choice for training deep neural networks, yet it suffers from interpretability limitations, unbounded weight growth, and inefficiencies that can contribute to costly training dynamics. The…

This paper addresses the problem of ad hoc microphone array calibration where only partial information about the distances between microphones is available. We construct a matrix consisting of the pairwise distances and propose to estimate…

Wasserstein metrics are increasingly being used as similarity scores for images treated as discrete measures on a grid, yet their behavior under noise remains poorly understood. In this work, we consider the sensitivity of the signed…
