Given a large set $U$ where each item $a\in U$ has weight $w(a)$, we want to estimate the total weight $W=\sum_{a\in U} w(a)$ to within factor of $1\pm\varepsilon$ with some constant probability $>1/2$. Since $n=|U|$ is large, we want to do…

For a distribution function $F$ on $\mathbb{R}^d$ and a point $q\in \mathbb{R}^d$, the \emph{spherical depth} $\SphD(q;F)$ is defined to be the probability that a point $q$ is contained inside a random closed hyper-ball obtained from a pair…

Weight-sharing is ubiquitous in deep learning. Motivated by this, we propose a "weight-sharing regularization" penalty on the weights $w \in \mathbb{R}^d$ of a neural network, defined as $\mathcal{R}(w) = \frac{1}{d - 1}\sum_{i > j}^d |w_i…
