This paper studies the geometry of binary hyperdimensional computing (HDC), a computational scheme in which data are encoded using high-dimensional binary vectors. We establish a result about the similarity structure induced by the HDC binding operator and show that the Laplace kernel naturally arises in this setting, motivating our new encoding method Laplace-HDC, which improves upon previous methods. We describe how our results indicate limitations of binary HDC in encoding spatial information from images and discuss potential solutions, including using Haar convolutional features and the definition of a translation-equivariant HDC encoding. Several numerical experiments highlighting the improved accuracy of Laplace-HDC in contrast to alternative methods are presented. We also numerically study other aspects of the proposed framework such as robustness and the underlying translation-equivariant encoding.

We consider covariance parameter estimation for Gaussian processes with functional inputs. From an increasing-domain asymptotics perspective, we prove the asymptotic consistency and normality of the maximum likelihood estimator. We extend these theoretical guarantees to encompass scenarios accounting for approximation errors in the inputs, which allows robustness of practical implementations relying on conventional sampling methods or projections onto a functional basis. Loosely speaking, both consistency and normality hold when the approximation error becomes negligible, a condition that is often achieved as the number of samples or basis functions becomes large. These later asymptotic properties are illustrated through analytical examples, including one that covers the case of non-randomly perturbed grids, as well as several numerical illustrations.

The concept of shift is often invoked to describe directional differences in statistical moments but has not yet been established as a property of individual distributions. In the present study, we define distributional shift (DS) as the concentration of frequencies towards the lowest discrete class and derive its measurement from the sum of cumulative frequencies. We use empirical datasets to demonstrate DS as an advantageous measure of ecological rarity and as a generalisable measure of poverty and scarcity. We then define relative distributional shift (RDS) as the difference in DS between distributions, yielding a uniquely signed (i.e., directional) measure. Using simulated random sampling, we show that RDS is closely related to measures of distance, divergence, intersection, and probabilistic scoring. We apply RDS to image analysis by demonstrating its performance in the detection of light events, changes in complex patterns, patterns within visual noise, and colour shifts. Altogether, DS is an intuitive statistical property that underpins a uniquely useful comparative measure.

This manuscript examines the problem of nonlinear stochastic fractional neutral integro-differential equations with weakly singular kernels. Our focus is on obtaining precise estimates to cover all possible cases of Abel-type singular kernels. Initially, we establish the existence, uniqueness, and continuous dependence on the initial value of the true solution, assuming a local Lipschitz condition and linear growth condition. Additionally, we develop the Euler-Maruyama method for the numerical solution of the equation and prove its strong convergence under the same conditions as the well-posedness. Moreover, we determine the accurate convergence rate of this method under global Lipschitz conditions and linear growth conditions.

High-dimensional linear models have been widely studied, but the developments in high-dimensional generalized linear models, or GLMs, have been slower. In this paper, we propose an empirical or data-driven prior leading to an empirical Bayes posterior distribution which can be used for estimation of and inference on the coefficient vector in a high-dimensional GLM, as well as for variable selection. We prove that our proposed posterior concentrates around the true/sparse coefficient vector at the optimal rate, provide conditions under which the posterior can achieve variable selection consistency, and prove a Bernstein--von Mises theorem that implies asymptotically valid uncertainty quantification. Computation of the proposed empirical Bayes posterior is simple and efficient, and is shown to perform well in simulations compared to existing Bayesian and non-Bayesian methods in terms of estimation and variable selection.

We consider fully discrete finite element approximations for a semilinear optimal control system of partial differential equations in two cases: for distributed and Robin boundary control. The ecological predator-prey optimal control model is approximated by conforming finite element methods mimicking the spatial part, while a discontinuous Galerkin method is used for the time discretization. We investigate the sensitivity of the solution distance from the target function, in cases with smooth and rough initial data. We employ low, and higher-order polynomials in time and space whenever proper regularity is present. The approximation schemes considered are with and without control constraints, driving efficiently the system to desired states realized using non-linear gradient methods.

This paper studies a quantum simulation technique for solving the Fokker-Planck equation. Traditional semi-discretization methods often fail to preserve the underlying Hamiltonian dynamics and may even modify the Hamiltonian structure, particularly when incorporating boundary conditions. We address this challenge by employing the Schrodingerization method-it converts any linear partial and ordinary differential equation with non-Hermitian dynamics into systems of Schrodinger-type equations. We explore the application in two distinct forms of the Fokker-Planck equation. For the conservation form, we show that the semi-discretization-based Schrodingerization is preferable, especially when dealing with non-periodic boundary conditions. Additionally, we analyze the Schrodingerization approach for unstable systems that possess positive eigenvalues in the real part of the coefficient matrix or differential operator. Our analysis reveals that the direct use of Schrodingerization has the same effect as a stabilization procedure. For the heat equation form, we propose a quantum simulation procedure based on the time-splitting technique. We discuss the relationship between operator splitting in the Schrodingerization method and its application directly to the original problem, illustrating how the Schrodingerization method accurately reproduces the time-splitting solutions at each step. Furthermore, we explore finite difference discretizations of the heat equation form using shift operators. Utilizing Fourier bases, we diagonalize the shift operators, enabling efficient simulation in the frequency space. Providing additional guidance on implementing the diagonal unitary operators, we conduct a comparative analysis between diagonalizations in the Bell and the Fourier bases, and show that the former generally exhibits greater efficiency than the latter.

We propose new linear combinations of compositions of a basic second-order scheme with appropriately chosen coefficients to construct higher order numerical integrators for differential equations. They can be considered as a generalization of extrapolation methods and multi-product expansions. A general analysis is provided and new methods up to order 8 are built and tested. The new approach is shown to reduce the latency problem when implemented in a parallel environment and leads to schemes that are significantly more efficient than standard extrapolation when the linear combination is delayed by a number of steps.

We describe a simple deterministic near-linear time approximation scheme for uncapacitated minimum cost flow in undirected graphs with real edge weights, a problem also known as transshipment. Specifically, our algorithm takes as input a (connected) undirected graph $G = (V, E)$, vertex demands $b \in \mathbb{R}^V$ such that $\sum_{v \in V} b(v) = 0$, positive edge costs $c \in \mathbb{R}_{>0}^E$, and a parameter $\varepsilon > 0$. In $O(\varepsilon^{-2} m \log^{O(1)} n)$ time, it returns a flow $f$ such that the net flow out of each vertex is equal to the vertex's demand and the cost of the flow is within a $(1 + \varepsilon)$ factor of optimal. Our algorithm is combinatorial and has no running time dependency on the demands or edge costs. With the exception of a recent result presented at STOC 2022 for polynomially bounded edge weights, all almost- and near-linear time approximation schemes for transshipment relied on randomization to embed the problem instance into low-dimensional space. Our algorithm instead deterministically approximates the cost of routing decisions that would be made if the input were subject to a random tree embedding. To avoid computing the $\Omega(n^2)$ vertex-vertex distances that an approximation of this kind suggests, we also limit the available routing decisions using distances explicitly stored in the well-known Thorup-Zwick distance oracle.

Deep learning methods are increasingly becoming instrumental as modeling tools in computational neuroscience, employing optimality principles to build bridges between neural responses and perception or behavior. Developing models that adequately represent uncertainty is however challenging for deep learning methods, which often suffer from calibration problems. This constitutes a difficulty in particular when modeling cortical circuits in terms of Bayesian inference, beyond single point estimates such as the posterior mean or the maximum a posteriori. In this work we systematically studied uncertainty representations in latent representations of variational auto-encoders (VAEs), both in a perceptual task from natural images and in two other canonical tasks of computer vision, finding a poor alignment between uncertainty and informativeness or ambiguities in the images. We next showed how a novel approach which we call explaining-away variational auto-encoders (EA-VAEs), fixes these issues, producing meaningful reports of uncertainty in a variety of scenarios, including interpolation, image corruption, and even out-of-distribution detection. We show EA-VAEs may prove useful both as models of perception in computational neuroscience and as inference tools in computer vision.
