A deep clustering model conceptually consists of a feature extractor that maps data points to a latent space, and a clustering head that groups data points into clusters in the latent space. Although the two components used to be trained…
Overweight and obesity in adults are known to be associated with risks of metabolic and cardiovascular diseases. Because obesity is an epidemic, increasingly affecting children, it is important to understand if this condition persists from…
Offline policy learning aims to discover decision-making policies from previously-collected datasets without additional online interactions with the environment. As the training dataset is fixed, its quality becomes a crucial determining…
We extend the study of a model of competitive cluster growth in an active medium to a basis of networks; this is done by adding nonlocal connections with probability $p$ to sites on a regular lattice, thus enabling one to interpolate…
Due to the wider availability of modern electronic health records, patient care data is often being stored in the form of time-series. Clustering such time-series data is crucial for patient phenotyping, anticipating patients' prognoses by…
Predicting relative risk (RR) of spatial clusters is a complex task in public health that can be achieved through various statistical and machine-learning methods for different time intervals. However, high-resolution longitudinal data is…
Several factors make clustering of functional data challenging, including the infinite-dimensional space to which observations belong and the lack of a defined probability density function for the functional random variable. To overcome…
We present a novel deep-learning-based method to cluster words in documents which we apply to detect and recognize tables given the OCR output. We interpret table structure bottom-up as a graph of relations between pairs of words (belonging…
We study the problem of clustering with relative constraints, where each constraint specifies relative similarities among instances. In particular, each constraint $(x_i, x_j, x_k)$ is acquired by posing a query: is instance $x_i$ more…
In this paper, we address the challenge of heterogeneous data distributions in cross-silo federated learning by introducing a novel algorithm, which we term Cross-silo Robust Clustered Federated Learning (CS-RCFL). Our approach leverages…
Trace clustering has increasingly been applied to find homogenous process executions. However, current techniques have difficulties in finding a meaningful and insightful clustering of patients on the basis of healthcare data. The resulting…
Network data appears in very diverse applications, like biological, social, or sensor networks. Clustering of network nodes into categories or communities has thus become a very common task in machine learning and data mining. Network data…
We study supervised learning problems using clustering constraints to impose structure on either features or samples, seeking to help both prediction and interpretation. The problem of clustering features arises naturally in text…
Clustering high-dimensional data often requires some form of dimensionality reduction, where clustered variables are separated from "noise-looking" variables. We cast this problem as finding a low-dimensional projection of the data which is…
In high-dimensional classification problems, a commonly used approach is to first project the high-dimensional features into a lower dimensional space, and base the classification on the resulting lower dimensional projections. In this…
Diet plays a crucial role in health, and understanding the causal effects of dietary patterns is essential for informing public health policy and personalized nutrition strategies. However, causal inference in nutritional epidemiology faces…
We propose a novel probabilistic dimensionality reduction framework that can naturally integrate the generative model and the locality information of data. Based on this framework, we present a new model, which is able to learn a smooth…
Meta-analyses frequently include trials that report multiple effect sizes based on a common set of study participants. These effect sizes will generally be correlated. Cluster-robust variance-covariance estimators are a fruitful approach…
Problem statement: Clustering has a number of techniques that have been developed in statistics, pattern recognition, data mining, and other fields. Subspace clustering enumerates clusters of objects in all subspaces of a dataset. It tends…
Identifying spatially contiguous clusters and repeated spatial patterns (RSP) characterized by similar underlying distributions that are spatially apart is a key challenge in modern spatial statistics. Existing constrained clustering…
