Typical success-rate prediction models for tapping exclude targets near screen edges. However, design constraints often force such placements, and in scrollable user interfaces, any element can move close to the screen edges. In this work,…
We develop a skew-adaptive extension of split conformal prediction for regression. The method starts from an asymmetric interval family centered at a point prediction and uses the gauge approach to deduce the conformity score induced by…

The Dynamic Nelson--Siegel (DNS) model is a widely used framework for term structure forecasting. We propose a novel extension that models DNS residuals as a Gaussian random field, capturing dependence across both time and maturity. The…

Despite the enormous success of graph neural networks (GNNs), most existing GNNs can only be applicable to undirected graphs where relationships among connected nodes are two-way symmetric (i.e., information can be passed back and forth).…
The asymmetric skew divergence smooths one of the distributions by mixing it, to a degree determined by the parameter $\lambda$, with the other distribution. Such divergence is an approximation of the KL divergence that does not require the…
