We construct a family of distributions $\{\mathcal{D}_n\}_n$ with $\mathcal{D}_n$ over $\{0, 1\}^n$ and a family of depth-$7$ quantum circuits $\{C_n\}_n$ such that $\mathcal{D}_n$ is produced exactly by $C_n$ with the all zeros state as…
The shortest Disjoint Path problem (SDPP) requires us to find pairwise vertex disjoint paths between k designated pairs of terminal vertices such that the sum of the path lengths is minimum. The focus here is on SDPP restricted to planar…

Determinantal point processes (DPPs) are an elegant model for encoding probabilities over subsets, such as shopping baskets, of a ground set, such as an item catalog. They are useful for a number of machine learning tasks, including product…

We propose discrete determinantal point processes (DPPs) for priors on the model parameter in Bayesian variable selection. By our variable selection method, collinear predictors are less likely to be selected simultaneously because of the…

In big data analysis, a simple task such as linear regression can become very challenging as the variable dimension $p$ grows. As a result, variable screening is inevitable in many scientific studies. In recent years, randomized algorithms…
