This paper proposes the capped least squares regression with an adaptive resistance parameter, hence the name, adaptive capped least squares regression. The key observation is, by taking the resistant parameter to be data dependent, the…

Adaptive randomized pivoting (ARP) is a recently proposed and highly effective algorithm for column subset selection. This paper reinterprets the ARP algorithm by drawing connections to the volume sampling distribution and active learning…

Simulated annealing (SA) is a kind of relaxation method for finding equilibria of Hamiltonian systems. A set of evolution equations is solved with SA, which is derived from the original Hamiltonian system so that the energy of the system…

The problem of distributed access of a set of N on-off channels by K<N users is considered. The channels are slotted and modeled as independent but not necessarily identical alternating renewal processes. Each user decides to either observe…

Symmetry, a fundamental concept to understand our environment, often oversimplifies reality from a mathematical perspective. Humans are a prime example, deviating from perfect symmetry in terms of appearance and cognitive biases (e.g.…

Data assimilation (DA) is a fundamental computational technique that integrates numerical simulation models and observation data on the basis of Bayesian statistics. Originally developed for meteorology, especially weather forecasting, DA…

We present a powerful general framework for designing data-dependent optimization algorithms, building upon and unifying recent techniques in adaptive regularization, optimistic gradient predictions, and problem-dependent randomization. We…

We propose a new gradient descent algorithm with added stochastic terms for finding the global optimizers of nonconvex optimization problems. A key component in the algorithm is the adaptive tuning of the randomness based on the value of…

We introduce the use of two machine learning algorithms to create an empirical model of an experimental apparatus, which is able to reduce the number of measurements necessary for generic optimisation tasks exponentially as compared to…

The Adaptive Multilevel Splitting (AMS) algorithm is a powerful and versatile method for the simulation of rare events. It is based on an interacting (via a mutation-selection procedure) system of replicas, and depends on two integer…

We describe the design and implementation of an autonomous adaptive software agent that addresses the practical problem of observing undersampled, periodic, time-varying phenomena using a network of HTN-compliant robotic telescopes. The…

Legged robots operating in real-world environments must possess the ability to rapidly adapt to unexpected conditions, such as changing terrains and varying payloads. This paper introduces the Synaptic Motor Adaptation (SMA) algorithm, a…

As more and more AI agents are used in practice, it is time to think about how to make these agents fully autonomous so that they can (1) learn by themselves continually in a self-motivated and self-initiated manner rather than being…

Autonomous driving vehicles aim to free the hands of vehicle operators, helping them to drive easier and faster, meanwhile, improving the safety of driving on the highway or in complex scenarios. Automated driving systems (ADS) are…

Auditory scene analysis (ASA) aims to retrieve information from the acoustic environment, by carrying out three main tasks: sound source location, separation, and classification. These tasks are traditionally executed with a linear data…

ANOVA Simultaneous Component Analysis (ASCA) is the current state-of-theart chemometric tool for analyzing and interpreting high-dimensional experimental data from a Design of Experiment (DoE). Being a multivariate extension of the ANOVA,…

We present the ADaptive Adversarial Imitation Learning (ADAIL) algorithm for learning adaptive policies that can be transferred between environments of varying dynamics, by imitating a small number of demonstrations collected from a single…

Sequence alignment has had an enormous impact on our understanding of biology, evolution, and disease. The alignment of biological {\em networks} holds similar promise. Biological networks generally model interactions between biomolecules…

This work proposes a novel strategy for social learning by introducing the critical feature of adaptation. In social learning, several distributed agents update continually their belief about a phenomenon of interest through: i) direct…

A recurrent task in coordinated systems is managing (estimating, predicting, or controlling) signals that vary in space, such as distributed sensed data or computation outcomes. Especially in large-scale settings, the problem can be…
