Manifold learning is used for dimensionality reduction, with the goal of finding a projection subspace to increase and decrease the inter- and intraclass variances, respectively. However, a bottleneck for subspace learning methods often…

Computational reconstruction plays a vital role in computer vision and computational photography. Most of the conventional optimization and deep learning techniques explore local information for reconstruction. Recently, nonlocal low-rank…

Low-rank structures play important role in recent advances of many problems in image science and data science. As a natural extension of low-rank structures for data with nonlinear structures, the concept of the low-dimensional manifold…

The problem of finding K-nearest neighbors in the given dataset for a given query point has been worked upon since several years. In very high dimensional spaces the K-nearest neighbor search (KNNS) suffers in terms of complexity in…

We introduce ORC-ManL, a new algorithm to prune spurious edges from nearest neighbor graphs using a criterion based on Ollivier-Ricci curvature and estimated metric distortion. Our motivation comes from manifold learning: we show that when…

We consider the problem of reconstructing the intrinsic geometry of a manifold from noisy pairwise distance observations. Specifically, let $M$ denote a diameter 1 d-dimensional manifold and $\mu$ a probability measure on $M$ that is…

Random geometric graphs are random graph models defined on metric measure spaces. A random geometric graph is generated by first sampling points from a metric space and then connecting each pair of sampled points independently with a…

We study a simple unsupervised regularization scheme for autoencoders called Manifold-Matching (MMAE): we align the pairwise distances in the latent space to those of the input data space by minimizing mean squared error. Because alignment…

We introduce $k$NN-LMs, which extend a pre-trained neural language model (LM) by linearly interpolating it with a $k$-nearest neighbors ($k$NN) model. The nearest neighbors are computed according to distance in the pre-trained LM embedding…

Several important algorithms for machine learning and data analysis use pairwise distances as input. On Riemannian manifolds these distances may be prohibitively costly to compute, in particular for large datasets. To tackle this problem,…

The indicator matrix plays an important role in machine learning, but optimizing it is an NP-hard problem. We propose a new relaxation of the indicator matrix and prove that this relaxation forms a manifold, which we call the Relaxed…

Dense Passage Retrieval (DPR) typically relies on Euclidean or cosine distance to measure query-passage relevance in embedding space, which is effective when embeddings lie on a linear manifold. However, our experiments across DPR…

Re-ranking systems aim to reorder an initial list of documents to satisfy better the information needs associated with a user-provided query. Modern re-rankers predominantly rely on neural network models, which have proven highly effective…

The manifold hypothesis (real world data concentrates near low-dimensional manifolds) is suggested as the principle behind the effectiveness of machine learning algorithms in very high dimensional problems that are common in domains such as…

Imbalanced classification presents a formidable challenge in machine learning, particularly when tabular datasets are plagued by noise and overlapping class boundaries. From a geometric perspective, the core difficulty lies in the…

Range-filtering approximate $k$-nearest neighbor (RFAKNN) search takes as input a vector and a numeric value, returning $k$ points from a database of $N$ high-dimensional points. The returned points must satisfy two criteria: their numeric…

Large language models (LLMs) provide powerful foundations to perform fine-grained text re-ranking. However, they are often prohibitive in reality due to constraints on computation bandwidth. In this work, we propose a \textbf{flexible}…

In this paper, we present a method for denoising and reconstruction of low-dimensional manifold in high-dimensional space. We suggest a multidimensional extension of the Locally Optimal Projection algorithm which was introduced by Lipman et…

High-quality benchmarks are the foundation for embodied AI research, enabling significant advancements in long-horizon navigation, manipulation and rearrangement tasks. However, as frontier tasks in robotics get more advanced, they require…
