Soil moisture is critical component of crop health and monitoring it can enable further actions for increasing yield or preventing catastrophic die off. As climate change increases the likelihood of extreme weather events and reduces the…
Although 3D shape matching and interpolation are highly interrelated, they are often studied separately and applied sequentially to relate different 3D shapes, thus resulting in sub-optimal performance. In this work we present a unified…
A diverse range of interpolation methods, including Kriging, spline/minimum curvature and radial basis function interpolation exist for interpolating spatially incomplete geoscientific data. Such methods use various spatial properties of…
In Diffusion Probabilistic Models (DPMs), the task of modeling the score evolution via a single time-dependent neural network necessitates extended training periods and may potentially impede modeling flexibility and capacity. To counteract…

Mixup refers to interpolation-based data augmentation, originally motivated as a way to go beyond empirical risk minimization (ERM). Its extensions mostly focus on the definition of interpolation and the space (input or feature) where it…
Modern multi-core systems have a large number of design parameters, most of which are discrete-valued, and this number is likely to keep increasing as chip complexity rises. Further, the accurate evaluation of a potential design choice is…
Estimating stellar masses and radii is a challenge for most of the stars but their knowledge is critical for many different astrophysical fields. One of the most extended techniques for estimating these variables are the so-called empirical…
Neuroevolution is a promising area of research that combines evolutionary algorithms with neural networks. A popular subclass of neuroevolutionary methods, called evolution strategies, relies on dense noise perturbations to mutate networks,…
The use of neural networks to approximate partial differential equations (PDEs) has gained significant attention in recent years. However, the approximation of PDEs with localised phenomena, e.g., sharp gradients and singularities, remains…

Data sites selected from modeling high-dimensional problems often appear scattered in non-paternalistic ways. Except for sporadic clustering at some spots, they become relatively far apart as the dimension of the ambient space grows. These…
Low-rank approximations are essential in modern data science. The interpolative decomposition provides one such approximation. Its distinguishing feature is that it reuses columns from the original matrix. This enables it to preserve matrix…
