We discuss an interesting sequence defined recursively; namely, sequence A105774 from the On-Line Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences, and study some of its properties. Our main tools are Fibonacci representation, finite automata, and the…
The linear complexity of a periodic sequence over $GF(p^m)$ plays an important role in cryptography and communication [12]. In this correspondence, we prove a result which reduces the computation of the linear complexity and minimal…
These lecture notes were written for a mini-course that was designed to introduce students and researchers to {\it $q$-series,} which are also called {\it basic hypergeometric series} because of the parameter $q$ that is used as a base in…
We prove that every Mahler series, over a field of characteristic $0$, with multiplicative coefficients is regular in the sense of Allouche and Shallit. We also obtain an explicit characterization of such series. This yields a joint…

We introduce the notion of Hypergraph Weighted Model (HWM) that generically associates a tensor network to a hypergraph and then computes a value by tensor contractions directed by its hyperedges. A series r defined on a hypergraph family…
The central result of this paper is the small-is-very-small principle for restricted sequential theories. The principle says roughly that whenever the given theory shows that a property has a small witness, i.e. a witness in every definable…

We synthesize and unify notions of regularity, both of individual sets and of collections of sets, as they appear in the convergence theory of projection methods for consistent feasibility problems. Several new characterizations of…
Recurrent neural networks (RNNs) are types of artificial neural networks (ANNs) that are well suited to forecasting and sequence classification. They have been applied extensively to forecasting univariate financial time series, however…

Separable nonlinear least squares (SNLS)problem is a special class of nonlinear least squares (NLS)problems, whose objective function is a mixture of linear and nonlinear functions. It has many applications in many different areas,…
It is widely known that Boltzmann machines are capable of representing arbitrary probability distributions over the values of their visible neurons, given enough hidden ones. However, sampling -- and thus training -- these models can be…
We present a new algorithm to generate minimal, stable, and symbolic corrections to an input that will cause a neural network with ReLU activations to change its output. We argue that such a correction is a useful way to provide feedback to…
This tutorial serves as an introduction to recently developed non-asymptotic methods in the theory of -- mainly linear -- system identification. We emphasize tools we deem particularly useful for a range of problems in this domain, such as…
