Conformal prediction is a general distribution-free approach for constructing prediction sets combined with any machine learning algorithm that achieve valid marginal or conditional coverage in finite samples. Ordinal classification is…
Geometric fracture assembly presents a challenging practical task in archaeology and 3D computer vision. Previous methods have focused solely on assembling fragments based on semantic information, which has limited the quantity of objects…
We study the generalized continued fraction expansions of complex numbers in term of elements from Euclidean subrings, especially Gaussian or Eisenstein integers, in a general framework as pursued in [3] and [1]. We introduce a common…
The piggybacking framework for designing erasure codes for distributed storage has empirically proven to be very useful, and has been used to design codes with desirable properties, such as low repair bandwidth and complexity. However, the…
A structured version of derivative-free random pattern search optimization algorithms is introduced which is able to exploit coordinate partially separable structure (typically associated with sparsity) often present in unconstrained and…
A novel coding scheme for exact repair-regenerating codes is presented in this paper. The codes proposed in this work can trade between the repair bandwidth of nodes (number of downloaded symbols from each surviving node in a repair…
We propose a new method, probabilistic divide-and-conquer, for improving the success probability in rejection sampling. For the example of integer partitions, there is an ideal recursive scheme which improves the rejection cost from…
Let $P$ be a set of $n$ points in the plane. A crossing-free structure on $P$ is a plane graph with vertex set $P$. Examples of crossing-free structures include triangulations of $P$, spanning cycles of $P$, also known as polygonalizations…
We study several variations of line segment covering problem with axis-parallel unit squares in $I\!\!R^2$. A set $S$ of $n$ line segments is given. The objective is to find the minimum number of axis-parallel unit squares which cover at…
Network codes designed specifically for distributed storage systems have the potential to provide dramatically higher storage efficiency for the same availability. One main challenge in the design of such codes is the exact repair problem:…
A rectifier network is a directed acyclic graph with distinguished sources and sinks; it is said to compute a Boolean matrix $M$ that has a $1$ in the entry $(i,j)$ iff there is a path from the $j$th source to the $i$th sink. The smallest…
The freedom associated with the definition of parton distribution functions is analyzed and formulae governing the dependence of parton distribution functions and hard scattering cross-sections on unphysical quantities associated with the…
A fractal surface is a set which is a graph of a bivariate continuous function. In the construction of fractal surfaces using IFS, vertical scaling factors in IFS are important one which characterizes a fractal feature of surfaces…
Graphical models have found widespread applications in many areas of modern statistics and machine learning. Iterative Proportional Fitting (IPF) and its variants have become the default method for undirected graphical model estimation, and…
Distributed storage systems support failures of individual devices by the use of replication or erasure correcting codes. While erasure correcting codes offer a better storage efficiency than replication for similar fault tolerance, they…
We show that for any n divisible by 3, almost all order-n Steiner triple systems have a perfect matching (also known as a parallel class or resolution class). In fact, we prove a general upper bound on the number of perfect matchings in a…
We present a comprehensive framework for structured sparse coding and modeling extending the recent ideas of using learnable fast regressors to approximate exact sparse codes. For this purpose, we develop a novel block-coordinate proximal…
We will state 10 problems, and solve some of them, for partitions in triangle-free graphs related to Erd\H{o}s' Sparse Half Conjecture. Among others we prove the following variant of it: For every sufficiently large even integer $n$ the…
There is a large literature on cover-free families of finite sets, because of their many applications in combinatorial group testing, cryptographic and communications. This work studies the generalization of cover-free families from sets to…
By generalising Rudin's construction of an aperiodic sequence, we derive new substitution-based structures which have purely absolutely continuous diffraction and mixed dynamical spectrum, with absolutely continuous and pure point parts. We…
