Designing proper loss functions for vision tasks has been a long-standing research direction to advance the capability of existing models. For object detection, the well-established classification and regression loss functions have been…

The success of self-supervised learning (SSL) has been the focus of multiple recent theoretical and empirical studies, including the role of data augmentation (in feature decoupling) as well as complete and dimensional representation…

Many machine learning problems involve iteratively and alternately optimizing different task objectives with respect to different sets of parameters. Appropriately scheduling the optimization of a task objective or a set of parameters is…

We are interested in the implications of a linearly autocorrelated driven noise on the asymptotic behavior of the usual least squares estimator in a stable autoregressive process. We show that the least squares estimator is not consistent…

Given the recent controversies in some neuroimaging statistical methods, we compare the most frequently used functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) analysis packages: AFNI, FSL and SPM, with regard to temporal autocorrelation…

The majority of deep neural network (DNN) based speech enhancement algorithms rely on the mean-square error (MSE) criterion of short-time spectral amplitudes (STSA), which has no apparent link to human perception, e.g. speech…

The predictive quality of machine learning models is typically measured in terms of their (approximate) expected prediction accuracy or the so-called Area Under the Curve (AUC). Minimizing the reciprocals of these measures are the goals of…

Intuitively, a more deterministic time series should be easier to forecast. However, point-wise loss functions (e.g., MSE and MAE), serving as differentiable surrogates for the ideal optimization target, score each timestamp independently…

Score matching (SM) is a convenient method for training flexible probabilistic models, which is often preferred over the traditional maximum-likelihood (ML) approach. However, these models are less interpretable than normalized models; as…

The performance of Markov chain Monte Carlo calculations is determined by both ensemble variance of the Monte Carlo estimator and autocorrelation of the Markov process. In order to study autocorrelation, binning analysis is commonly used,…

Quantum computers progress toward outperforming classical supercomputers, but quantum errors remain their primary obstacle. The key to overcoming errors on near-term devices has emerged through the field of quantum error mitigation,…

Mean-squared-error (MSE) is one of the most widely used performance metrics for the designs and analysis of multi-input-multiple-output (MIMO) communications. Weighted MSE minimization, a more general formulation of MSE minimization, plays…

We consider the multi-target detection problem of recovering a set of signals that appear multiple times at unknown locations in a noisy measurement. In the low noise regime, one can estimate the signals by first detecting occurrences, then…

An alternative to extrinsic information transfer (EXIT) charts called mean squared error (MSE) charts that use a measure related to the MSE instead of mutual information is proposed. Using the relationship between mutual information and…

This paper presents a whitening-based contrastive learning method for sentence embedding learning (WhitenedCSE), which combines contrastive learning with a novel shuffled group whitening. Generally, contrastive learning pulls distortions of…

We study estimation of a multivariate function $f:\mathbf{R}^d\to\mathbf{R}$ when the observations are available from the function $Af$, where $A$ is a known linear operator. Both the Gaussian white noise model and density estimation are…

In this work, we establish a novel theoretical connection between supervised fine-tuning and offline reinforcement learning under the token-level Markov decision process, revealing that large language models indeed learn an implicit…

Blind inverse problems arise in many experimental settings where both the signal of interest and the forward operator are (partially) unknown. In this context, methods developed for the non-blind case cannot be adapted in a straightforward…

Model merging has emerged as a cost-effective alternative to training large language models (LLMs) from scratch, enabling researchers to combine pre-trained models into more capable systems without full retraining. Evolutionary approaches…

We study the multi-task linear regression problem in the presence of contaminated tasks. We address the setting where the unknown parameters of a majority of tasks are close in the $\ell_2$-norm, while a fraction of tasks are arbitrary…
