The sequential data observed in earth science can be regarded as paths in multidimensional space. To read the path effectively, it is useful to convert it into a sequence of numbers called the signature, which can faithfully describe the…
We introduce a proper notion of 2-dimensional signature for images. This object is inspired by the so-called rough paths theory, and it captures many essential features of a 2-dimensional object such as an image. It thus serves as a…
We introduce a new approach to spectral sparsification that approximates the quadratic form of the pseudoinverse of a graph Laplacian restricted to a subspace. We show that sparsifiers with a near-linear number of edges in the dimension of…
We introduce the notions of tree-like path and tree-like equivalence between paths and prove that the latter is an equivalence relation for paths of finite length. We show that the equivalence classes form a group with some similarity to a…
In statistical machine learning, kernel methods allow to consider infinite dimensional feature spaces with a computational cost that only depends on the number of observations. This is usually done by solving an optimization problem…
The signature is an infinite graded sequence of statistics known to characterise a stream of data up to a negligible equivalence class. It is a transform which has previously been treated as a fixed feature transformation, on top of which a…
In this work we suggest a statistical mechanics approach to the classification of high-dimensional data according to a binary label. We propose an algorithm whose aim is twofold: First it learns a classifier from a relatively small number…
Many finance, physics, and engineering phenomena are modeled by continuous-time dynamical systems driven by highly irregular (stochastic) inputs. A powerful tool to perform time series analysis in this context is rooted in rough path theory…
This paper introduces a novel framework and corresponding methods for sampling and reconstruction of sparse signals in shift-invariant (SI) spaces. We reinterpret the random demodulator, a system that acquires sparse bandlimited signals, as…

We establish a general form of explicit, input-dependent, measure-valued warpings for learning nonstationary kernels. While stationary kernels are ubiquitous and simple to use, they struggle to adapt to functions that vary in smoothness…
High-energy, large-scale particle colliders in nuclear and high-energy physics generate data at extraordinary rates, reaching up to $1$ terabyte and several petabytes per second, respectively. The development of real-time, high-throughput…
Controlled ordinary differential equations driven by continuous bounded variation curves can be considered a continuous time analogue of recurrent neural networks for the construction of expressive features of the input curves. We ask up to…
Kernel means are frequently used to represent probability distributions in machine learning problems. In particular, the well known kernel density estimator and the kernel mean embedding both have the form of a kernel mean. Unfortunately,…
We bring the theory of rough paths to the study of non-parametric statistics on streamed data. We discuss the problem of regression where the input variable is a stream of information, and the dependent response is also (potentially) a…
Distribution Regression on path-space refers to the task of learning functions mapping the law of a stochastic process to a scalar target. The learning procedure based on the notion of path-signature, i.e. a classical transform from rough…
Sparse subspace clustering (SSC), as one of the most successful subspace clustering methods, has achieved notable clustering accuracy in computer vision tasks. However, SSC applies only to vector data in Euclidean space. As such, there is…
