To obtain the highest confidence on the correction of numerical simulation programs implementing the finite element method, one has to formalize the mathematical notions and results that allow to establish the soundness of the method. The…
We establish sufficient conditions for the asymptotic normality of kernel density estimators, applied to causal linear random fields. Our conditions on the coefficients of linear random fields are weaker than known results, although our…
For dynamical systems with a non hyperbolic equilibrium, it is possible to significantly simplify the study of stability by means of the center manifold theory. This theory allows to isolate the complicated asymptotic behavior of the system…
This note is concerned with an extension, at second order, of an inequality on the discrete cube $C_n=\{-1,1\}$ (equipped with the uniform measure) due to Talagrand (\cite{TalL1L2}). As an application, the main result of this note is a…
We extend the theoretical framework of proof mining by establishing general logical metatheorems that allow for the extraction of the computational content of theorems with prima facie "non-computational" proofs from probability theory,…
Concentration of measure has been argued to be the fundamental cause of adversarial vulnerability. Mahloujifar et al. presented an empirical way to measure the concentration of a data distribution using samples, and employed it to find…
We establish a new concentration result for regularized risk minimizers which is similar to an oracle inequality. Applying this inequality to regularized least squares minimizers like least squares support vector machines, we show that…
In the context of sparse principal component detection, we bring evidence towards the existence of a statistical price to pay for computational efficiency. We measure the performance of a test by the smallest signal strength that it can…
We introduce estimation and test procedures through divergence minimization for models satisfying linear constraints with unknown parameter. Several statistical examples and motivations are given. These procedures extend the empirical…
We establish an algebraic criterion which ensures the strict positivity of the entropy production in quantum models consisting of a small system coupled to thermal reservoirs at different temperatures.
We introduce a method to numerically compute equilibrium measures for problems with attractive-repulsive power law kernels of the form $K(x-y) = \frac{|x-y|^\alpha}{\alpha}-\frac{|x-y|^\beta}{\beta}$ using recursively generated banded and…
With Bell's inequalities one has a formal expression to show how essentially all local theories of natural phenomena that are formulated within the framework of realism may be tested using a simple experimental arrangement. For the case of…
In this article we consider mathematical fundamentals of one method for proving inequalities by computer, based on the Remez algorithm. Using the well-known results of undecidability of the existence of zeros of real elementary functions,…
We use a suitable version of the so-called "kernel trick" to devise two-sample (homogeneity) tests, especially focussed on high-dimensional and functional data. Our proposal entails a simplification related to the important practical…
Sampling in control applications is increasingly done non-equidistantly in time. This includes applications in motion control, networked control, resource-aware control, and event-based control. Some of these applications, like the ones…
Via a covariance representation based on characteristic functions, a known elementary proof of the Gaussian concentration inequality is presented. A few other applications are briefly mentioned.
Each application developer desires to provide its users with consistent results and an always-available system despite failures. Boldly, the CALM theorem disagrees. It states that it is hard to design a system that is both consistent and…
Landauer's principle is, roughly, the principle that there is an entropic cost associated with implementation of logically irreversible operations. Though widely accepted in the literature on the thermodynamics of computation, it has been…
Kernel $k$-means clustering is a powerful tool for unsupervised learning of non-linearly separable data. Since the earliest attempts, researchers have noted that such algorithms often become trapped by local minima arising from…
We aim to reason about the correctness of behaviour-preserving transformations of Erlang programs. Behaviour preservation is characterised by semantic equivalence. Based upon our existing formal semantics for Core Erlang, we investigate…
