Mapper is an unsupervised machine learning algorithm generalising the notion of clustering to obtain a geometric description of a dataset. The procedure splits the data into possibly overlapping bins which are then clustered. The output of…

Clustering is a very popular network structuring technique which mainly addresses the issue of scalability in large scale Wireless Sensor Networks. Additionally, it has been shown to improve the energy efficiency and prolong the life of the…

Density peaks clustering (DP) has the ability of detecting clusters of arbitrary shape and clustering non-Euclidean space data, but its quadratic complexity in both computing and storage makes it difficult to scale for big data. Various…

Modeling humans in physical scenes is vital for understanding human-environment interactions for applications involving augmented reality or assessment of human actions from video (e.g. sports or physical rehabilitation). State-of-the-art…

Due to rapid advancements in technology, datasets are available from various domains. In order to carry out more relevant and appropriate analysis, it is often necessary to project the dataset into a higher or lower dimensional space based…

Hierarchical clustering is a popular method for analyzing data which associates a tree to a dataset. Hartigan consistency has been used extensively as a framework to analyze such clustering algorithms from a statistical point of view.…

Clustering is one of the most fundamental problems in data analysis and it has been studied extensively in the literature. Though many clustering algorithms have been proposed, clustering theories that justify the use of these clustering…

Modern representation learning increasingly relies on unsupervised and self-supervised methods trained on large-scale unlabeled data. While these approaches achieve impressive generalization across tasks and domains, evaluating embedding…

Multidimensional scaling visualizes dissimilarities among objects and reduces data dimensionality. While many methods address symmetric proximity data, asymmetric and especially three-way proximity data (capturing relationships across…

Recent work on interpretability has focused on concept-based explanations, where deep learning models are explained in terms of high-level units of information, referred to as concepts. Concept learning models, however, have been shown to…

We introduce a novel validation framework to measure the true robustness of learning models for real-world applications by creating source-inclusive and source-exclusive partitions in a dataset via clustering. We develop a robustness metric…

Robustness checks are routine in empirical work, but there is no standard statistical procedure to formally measure what one can learn from them. I propose a "robustness radius" measure to quantify the amount by which the robustness checks…

Clustering is a common task in machine learning, but clusters of unlabelled data can be hard to quantify. The application of clustering algorithms in chemistry is often dependant on material representation. Ascertaining the effects of…

In recent years, semi-supervised learning has been widely explored and shows excellent data efficiency for 2D data. There is an emerging need to improve data efficiency for 3D tasks due to the scarcity of labeled 3D data. This paper…

In model-based clustering using finite mixture models, it is a significant challenge to determine the number of clusters (cluster size). It used to be equal to the number of mixture components (mixture size); however, this may not be valid…

High density clusters can be characterized by the connected components of a level set $L(\lambda) = \{x:\ p(x)>\lambda\}$ of the underlying probability density function $p$ generating the data, at some appropriate level $\lambda\geq 0$. The…

Parametric projections let analysts embed new points in real time, but input variations from measurement noise or data drift can produce unpredictable shifts in the 2D layout. Whether and where a projection is locally stable remains largely…

Model selection is a major challenge in non-parametric clustering. There is no universally admitted way to evaluate clustering results for the obvious reason that no ground truth is available. The difficulty to find a universal evaluation…

Dimensionality reduction methods are employed to decrease data dimensionality, either to enhance machine learning performance or to facilitate data visualization in two or three-dimensional spaces. These methods typically fall into two…

This chapter explores the foundational concept of robustness in Machine Learning (ML) and its integral role in establishing trustworthiness in Artificial Intelligence (AI) systems. The discussion begins with a detailed definition of…
