In this paper, we focus on knapsack cones, a specific type of simplicial cones that arise naturally in the context of the knapsack problem $x_1 a_1 + \cdots + x_n a_n = a_0$. We present a novel combinatorial decomposition for these cones,…

Spatio-temporal data is intrinsically high dimensional, so unsupervised modeling is only feasible if we can exploit structure in the process. When the dynamics are local in both space and time, this structure can be exploited by splitting…
