Coreset selection seeks to choose a subset of crucial training samples for efficient learning. It has gained traction in deep learning, particularly with the surge in training dataset sizes. Sample selection hinges on two main aspects: a…

Topological Data Analysis (TDA) is an approach to handle with big data by studying its shape. A main tool of TDA is the persistence diagram, and one can use it to compare data sets. One approach to learn on the similarity between two…

Topological Data Analysis (TDA) provides powerful tools to explore the shape and structure of data through topological features such as clusters, loops, and voids. Persistence diagrams are a cornerstone of TDA, capturing the evolution of…

Diversity indices have been traditionally used to capture the biodiversity of ecosystems by measuring the effective number of species or groups of species. In contrast to abundance, which is correlated with the amount of data available,…

Topological data analysis (TDA) is a rapidly developing collection of methods for studying the shape of point cloud and other data types. One popular approach, designed to be robust to noise and outliers, is to first use a smoothing…

A common and natural intuition among software testers is that test cases need to differ if a software system is to be tested properly and its quality ensured. Consequently, much research has gone into formulating distance measures for how…

High-quality training data is the foundation of machine learning and artificial intelligence, shaping how models learn and perform. Although much is known about what types of data are effective for training, the impact of the data's…

Topological Data Analysis (TDA) is a novel statistical technique, particularly powerful for the analysis of large and high dimensional data sets. Much of TDA is based on the tool of persistent homology, represented visually via persistence…

Maximum diversity problems arise in many practical settings from facility location to social networks, and constitute an important class of NP-hard problems in combinatorial optimization. There has been a growing interest in these problems…

Current trends in pre-training Large Language Models (LLMs) primarily focus on the scaling of model and dataset size. While the quality of pre-training data is considered an important factor for training powerful LLMs, it remains a nebulous…

Topological Data Analysis (TDA) provides tools to describe the shape of data, but integrating topological features into deep learning pipelines remains challenging, especially when preserving local geometric structure rather than…

Shapley data valuation provides a principled, axiomatic framework for assigning importance to individual datapoints, and has gained traction in dataset curation, pruning, and pricing. However, it is a combinatorial measure that requires…

Topological Data Analysis (TDA) is a novel, and relatively new approach to analysing high-dimensional data sets. It does this by focussing on global properties like the shape and connectivity of the data giving it a significant advantage…

The design of a metric between probability distributions is a longstanding problem motivated by numerous applications in Machine Learning. Focusing on continuous probability distributions on the Euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^d$, we introduce…

Text-to-image (T2I) models are rapidly gaining popularity, yet their outputs often lack geographical diversity, reinforce stereotypes, and misrepresent regions. Given their broad reach, it is critical to rigorously evaluate how these models…

It is a standard assumption that datasets in high dimension have an internal structure which means that they in fact lie on, or near, subsets of a lower dimension. In many instances it is important to understand the real dimension of the…

Topological data analysis (TDA), as a relatively recent approach, has demonstrated great potential in capturing the intrinsic and robust structural features of complex data. While persistent homology, as a core tool of TDA, focuses on…

Entropy is a measure of heterogeneity widely used in applied sciences, often when data are collected over space. Recently, a number of approaches has been proposed to include spatial information in entropy. The aim of entropy is to…

Software ecosystems have had a tremendous impact on computing and society, capturing the attention of businesses, researchers, and policy makers alike. Massive ecosystems like the JavaScript node package manager (npm) is evidence of how…

Persistent homology (PH) is a method used in topological data analysis (TDA) to study qualitative features of data that persist across multiple scales. It is robust to perturbations of input data, independent of dimensions and coordinates,…
