For pattern recognition like image recognition, it has become clear that each machine-learning dictionary data actually became data in probability space belonging to Euclidean space. However, the distances in the Euclidean space and the…

Interactions and relations between objects may be pairwise or higher-order in nature, and so network-valued data are ubiquitous in the real world. The "space of networks", however, has a complex structure that cannot be adequately described…

A C# implementation of a generalized k-means variant called relational k-means is described here. Relational k-means is a generalization of the well-known k-means clustering method which works for non-Euclidean scenarios as well. The input…

Many real networks are embedded in space, where in some of them the links length decay as a power law distribution with distance. Indications that such systems can be characterized by the concept of dimension were found recently. Here, we…

There are many papers studying properties of point sets in the Euclidean space $\mathbb{E}^m$ or on integer grids $\mathbb{Z}^m$, with pairwise integral or rational distances. In this article we consider the distances or coordinates of the…

Many network information theory problems face the similar difficulty of single letterization. We argue that this is due to the lack of a geometric structure on the space of probability distribution. In this paper, we develop such a…

We introduce an asymmetric distance in the space of learning tasks, and a framework to compute their complexity. These concepts are foundational for the practice of transfer learning, whereby a parametric model is pre-trained for a task,…

We consider the $k$-Clustering problem, which is for a given multiset of $n$ vectors $X\subset \mathbb{Z}^d$ and a nonnegative number $D$, to decide whether $X$ can be partitioned into $k$ clusters $C_1, \dots, C_k$ such that the cost…

For any finite point set in $D$-dimensional space equipped with the 1-norm, we present random linear embeddings to $k$-dimensional space, with a new metric, having the following properties. For any pair of points from the point set that are…

We show how complexity theory can be introduced in machine learning to help bring together apparently disparate areas of current research. We show that this new approach requires less training data and is more generalizable as it shows…

Euclidean preferences are a widely studied preference model, in which decision makers and alternatives are embedded in d-dimensional Euclidean space. Decision makers prefer those alternatives closer to them. This model, also known as…

We consider the problem of describing the typical (possibly) non-linear code of minimum distance bounded from below over a large alphabet. We concentrate on block codes with the Hamming metric and on subspace codes with the injection…

The information metric provides a unique notion of distance along any continuous family of physical theories, placing two theories further apart the more distinguishable they are. As such, the information metric is typically singular at…
