Conditional Mutual Information (CMI) is a measure of conditional dependence between random variables X and Y, given another random variable Z. It can be used to quantify conditional dependence among variables in many data-driven inference…

Our aim is to develop dynamic data structures that support $k$-nearest neighbors ($k$-NN) queries for a set of $n$ point sites in the plane in $O(f(n) + k)$ time, where $f(n)$ is some polylogarithmic function of $n$. The key component is a…

It is well known that quantum mechanics admits a geometric formulation on the complex projective space as a Kahler manifold. In this paper we consider the notion of mutual information among continuous random variables in relation to the…

Extending the capabilities of robotics to real-world complex, unstructured environments requires the need of developing better perception systems while maintaining low sample complexity. When dealing with high-dimensional state spaces,…

High-dimensional statistical inference deals with models in which the the number of parameters p is comparable to or larger than the sample size n. Since it is usually impossible to obtain consistent procedures unless $p/n\rightarrow0$, a…

The robustness of the stability properties of dynamical systems in the presence of unknown/adversarial perturbations to system parameters is a desirable property. In this paper, we present methods to efficiently compute and improve the…

This paper focuses on solving the multiplicative gamma denoising problem via a variation model. Variation-based regularization models have been extensively employed in a variety of inverse problem tasks in image processing. However,…

Likelihood ratios are used for a variety of applications in particle physics data analysis, including parameter estimation, unfolding, and anomaly detection. When the data are high-dimensional, neural networks provide an effective tools for…

In many scientific disciplines structures in high-dimensional data have to be found, e.g., in stellar spectra, in genome data, or in face recognition tasks. In this work we present a novel approach to non-linear dimensionality reduction. It…

For any finite point set in $D$-dimensional space equipped with the 1-norm, we present random linear embeddings to $k$-dimensional space, with a new metric, having the following properties. For any pair of points from the point set that are…

We propose a new method for local distance metric learning based on sample similarity as side information. These local metrics, which utilize conical combinations of metric weight matrices, are learned from the pooled spatial…

Mutual information (MI) is a principled and widely used objective for robotic information gathering (RIG), providing strong theoretical guarantees for sensor placement (SP) and informative path planning (IPP). However, its high…

Representation learning algorithms offer the opportunity to learn invariant representations of the input data with regard to nuisance factors. Many authors have leveraged such strategies to learn fair representations, i.e., vectors where…

Data augmentation has been proven to be an effective technique for developing machine learning models that are robust to known classes of distributional shifts (e.g., rotations of images), and alignment regularization is a technique often…

To provide an efficient approach to characterize the input-output mutual information (MI) under additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) channel, this short report fits the curves of exact MI under multilevel quadrature amplitude modulation…

An information-theoretic upper bound on the generalization error of supervised learning algorithms is derived. The bound is constructed in terms of the mutual information between each individual training sample and the output of the…

This paper is devoted to the mathematical study of some divergences based on the mutual information well-suited to categorical random vectors. These divergences are generalizations of the "entropy distance" and "information distance". Their…

Real-world data with underlying structure, such as pictures of faces, are hypothesized to lie on a low-dimensional manifold. This manifold hypothesis has motivated state-of-the-art generative algorithms that learn low-dimensional data…

Previous studies show the necessity of global and local adjustment for image enhancement. However, existing convolutional neural networks (CNNs) and transformer-based models face great challenges in balancing the computational efficiency…

While it is well known that nonlinear methods of approximation can often perform dramatically better than linear methods, there are still questions on how to measure the optimal performance possible for such methods. This paper studies…
