Most psychophysical experiments discard half the data collected. Specifically, experiments discard reaction time data, and use binary responses (e.g. yes/no) to measure performance. Here, Shannon's information theory is used to define…

The paper starts with a concise description of the recently developed semismooth* Newton method for the solution of general inclusions. This method is then applied to a class of variational inequalities of the second kind. As a result, one…

It is not obvious how to extend Shannon's original information entropy to higher dimensions, and many different approaches have been tried. We replace the English text symbol sequence originally used to illustrate the theory by a discrete,…

Gagliardo--Nirenberg inequalities are interpolation inequalities which were proved independently by Gagliardo and Nirenberg in the late fifties. In recent years, their connections with theoretic aspects of information theory and nonlinear…

Numerous recent techniques for text style transfer characterize their approaches as variants of reinforcement learning and preference optimization. In this work, we consider the relationship between these approaches and a class of…

The learning parity with noise (LPN) problem is a well-established computational challenge whose difficulty is critical to the security of several post-quantum cryptographic primitives such as HQC and Classic McEliece. Classically, the…

The Shannon information-entropy uncertainty (in brief as "information uncertainty") is used to analyze the fragments in the measured 140$A$ MeV $^{40, 48}$Ca + $^{9}$Be and $^{58, 64}$Ni + $^{9}$Be reactions. A scaling phenomenon is found…

We use the concept of barrier-based smoothing approximations introduced in [ C. B. Chua and Z. Li, A barrier-based smoothing proximal point algorithm for NCPs over closed convex cones, SIOPT 23(2), 2010] to extend the non-interior…

The pairwise comparisons method is a convenient tool used when the relative order of preferences among different concepts (alternatives) needs to be determined. There are several popular implementations of this method, including the…

We study conditional linear information inequalities, i.e., linear inequalities for Shannon entropy that hold for distributions whose entropies meet some linear constraints. We prove that some conditional information inequalities cannot be…

Both sampling a time-varying signal, and its spectral analysis are activities subjected to theoretically compelling, such as Shannon's theorem and the objectively limiting of the frequency's resolution. Usually, the signals' spectra are…

We study the following one-way asymmetric transmission problem, also a variant of model-based compressed sensing: a resource-limited encoder has to report a small set $S$ from a universe of $N$ items to a more powerful decoder (server). The…

With the growing use of ML in highly consequential domains, quantifying disparity with respect to protected attributes, e.g., gender, race, etc., is important. While quantifying disparity is essential, sometimes the needs of an occupation…

Quasi-Newton methods refer to a class of algorithms at the interface between first and second order methods. They aim to progress as substantially as second order methods per iteration, while maintaining the computational complexity of…

In this paper we prove two conjectures stated by Chao-Ping Chen in [Int. Trans. Spec. Funct. 23:12 (2012), 865--873], using a method for proving inequalities of mixed trigonometric polynomial functions.

Chen and Cheung [C.-P. Chen, W.-S. Cheung, Sharpness of Wilker and Huygens type inequalities, J. Inequal. Appl. 2012 (2012) 72, \url{http://dx.doi.org/10.1186/1029-242X-2012-72}] established sharp Wilker and Huygens-type inequalities. These…

Social inequality is a topic of interest since ages, and has attracted researchers across disciplines to ponder over it origin, manifestation, characteristics, consequences, and finally, the question of how to cope with it. It is manifested…

We use two different approaches to derive multipartite Leggett-type inequalities, which are generalizations of the two-qubit Leggett-type inequality obtained in [Nature Phys. \textbf{4}, 681 (2008)]. The first approach is based on the…

We prove "untyping" theorems: in some typed theories (semirings, Kleene algebras, residuated lattices, involutive residuated lattices), typed equations can be derived from the underlying untyped equations. As a consequence, the…

Statistically equivalent blocks are not frequently considered in the context of nonparametric two-sample hypothesis testing. Despite the limited exposure, this paper shows that a number of classical nonparametric hypothesis tests can be…
