Distance metric learning is a branch of machine learning that aims to learn distances from the data, which enhances the performance of similarity-based algorithms. This tutorial provides a theoretical background and foundations on this…
Encodings or the proof of their absence are the main way to compare process calculi. To analyse the quality of encodings and to rule out trivial or meaningless encodings, they are augmented with encodability criteria. There exists a bunch…
This introduction to arithmetic coding is divided in two parts. The first explains how and why arithmetic coding works. We start presenting it in very general terms, so that its simplicity is not lost under layers of implementation details.…

Speckle patterns are a powerful tool for high-precision metrology, as they allow remarkable performance in relatively simple setups. Nonetheless, researchers in this field follow rather distinct paths due to underappreciated general…
Most engineers use measurements to make decisions. However, measurements are rarely used for decisions about constructing software products. While many approaches to measuring attributes of software (``metrics'') have been developed, they…
In this work we explore possibilities for coding and decoding tailor-made for mean squared error evaluation of error in contexts such as image transmission. To do so, we introduce a loss function that expresses the overall performance of a…
In this paper, we propose a metric on the space of finite sets of trajectories for assessing multi-target tracking algorithms in a mathematically sound way. The main use of the metric is to compare estimates of trajectories from different…

Tensor codes are a generalisation of matrix codes. Such codes are defined as subspaces of order-r tensors for which the ambient space is endowed with the tensor-rank as a metric. A class of these codes was introduced by Roth, who also…
Color codes are a class of topological quantum codes with a high error threshold and large set of transversal encoded gates, and are thus suitable for fault tolerant quantum computation in two-dimensional architectures. Recently,…
This paper has two goals. The first one is to discuss good codes for packing problems in the Lee and Manhattan metrics. The second one is to consider weighing matrices for some of these coding problems. Weighing matrices were considered as…
The setting of metric spaces is very natural for numerous questions concerning manifolds, norms, and fractal sets, and a few of the main ingredients are surveyed here.
Spectral measures arise in numerous applications such as quantum mechanics, signal processing, resonances, and fluid stability. Similarly, spectral decompositions (pure point, absolutely continuous and singular continuous) often…
