In this paper, we study the design and analysis of experiments conducted on a set of units over multiple time periods where the starting time of the treatment may vary by unit. The design problem involves selecting an initial treatment time for each unit in order to most precisely estimate both the instantaneous and cumulative effects of the treatment. We first consider non-adaptive experiments, where all treatment assignment decisions are made prior to the start of the experiment. For this case, we show that the optimization problem is generally NP-hard, and we propose a near-optimal solution. Under this solution, the fraction entering treatment each period is initially low, then high, and finally low again. Next, we study an adaptive experimental design problem, where both the decision to continue the experiment and treatment assignment decisions are updated after each period's data is collected. For the adaptive case, we propose a new algorithm, the Precision-Guided Adaptive Experiment (PGAE) algorithm, that addresses the challenges at both the design stage and at the stage of estimating treatment effects, ensuring valid post-experiment inference accounting for the adaptive nature of the design. Using realistic settings, we demonstrate that our proposed solutions can reduce the opportunity cost of the experiments by over 50%, compared to static design benchmarks.

Despite having the same basic prophet inequality setup and model of loss aversion, conclusions in our multi-dimensional model differs considerably from the one-dimensional model of Kleinberg et al. For example, Kleinberg et al. gives a tight closed-form on the competitive ratio that an online decision-maker can achieve as a function of $\lambda$, for any $\lambda \geq 0$. In our multi-dimensional model, there is a sharp phase transition: if $k$ denotes the number of dimensions, then when $\lambda \cdot (k-1) \geq 1$, no non-trivial competitive ratio is possible. On the other hand, when $\lambda \cdot (k-1) < 1$, we give a tight bound on the achievable competitive ratio (similar to Kleinberg et al.). As another example, Kleinberg et al. uncovers an exponential improvement in their competitive ratio for the random-order vs. worst-case prophet inequality problem. In our model with $k\geq 2$ dimensions, the gap is at most a constant-factor. We uncover several additional key differences in the multi- and single-dimensional models.

In this paper, we investigate how the initial models and the final models for the polynomial functors can be uniformly specified in matching logic.

In this paper we consider data storage from a probabilistic point of view and obtain bounds for efficient storage in the presence of feature selection and undersampling, both of which are important from the data science perspective. First, we consider encoding of correlated sources for nonstationary data and obtain a Slepian-Wolf type result for the probability of error. We then reinterpret our result by allowing one source to be the set of features to be discarded and other source to be remaining data to be encoded. Next, we consider neighbourhood domination in random graphs where we impose the condition that a fraction of neighbourhood must be present for each vertex and obtain optimal bounds on the minimum size of such a set. We show how such sets are useful for data undersampling in the presence of imbalanced datasets and briefly illustrate our result using~\(k-\)nearest neighbours type classification rules as an example.

In this article, we design and analyze a Hybrid High-Order (HHO) finite element approximation for a class of strongly nonlinear boundary value problems. We consider an HHO discretization for a suitable linearized problem and show its well-posedness using the Gardings type inequality. The essential ingredients for the HHO approximation involve local reconstruction and high-order stabilization. We establish the existence of a unique solution for the HHO approximation using the Brouwer fixed point theorem and contraction principle. We derive an optimal order a priori error estimate in the discrete energy norm. Numerical experiments are performed to illustrate the convergence histories.

In this paper, we consider the problem of distributed optimisation of a separable convex cost function over a graph, where every edge and node in the graph could carry both linear equality and/or inequality constraints. We show how to modify the primal-dual method of multipliers (PDMM), originally designed for linear equality constraints, such that it can handle inequality constraints as well. In contrast to most existing algorithms for optimisation with inequality constraints, the proposed algorithm does not need any slack variables. Using convex analysis, monotone operator theory and fixed-point theory, we show how to derive the update equations of the modified PDMM algorithm by applying Peaceman-Rachford splitting to the monotonic inclusion related to the extended dual problem. To incorporate the inequality constraints, we impose a non-negativity constraint on the associated dual variables. This additional constraint results in the introduction of a reflection operator to model the data exchange in the network, instead of a permutation operator as derived for equality constraint PDMM. Convergence for both synchronous and stochastic update schemes of PDMM are provided. The latter includes asynchronous update schemes and update schemes with transmission losses.

In this paper, we propose an autonomous information seeking visual question answering framework, AVIS. Our method leverages a Large Language Model (LLM) to dynamically strategize the utilization of external tools and to investigate their outputs, thereby acquiring the indispensable knowledge needed to provide answers to the posed questions. Responding to visual questions that necessitate external knowledge, such as "What event is commemorated by the building depicted in this image?", is a complex task. This task presents a combinatorial search space that demands a sequence of actions, including invoking APIs, analyzing their responses, and making informed decisions. We conduct a user study to collect a variety of instances of human decision-making when faced with this task. This data is then used to design a system comprised of three components: an LLM-powered planner that dynamically determines which tool to use next, an LLM-powered reasoner that analyzes and extracts key information from the tool outputs, and a working memory component that retains the acquired information throughout the process. The collected user behavior serves as a guide for our system in two key ways. First, we create a transition graph by analyzing the sequence of decisions made by users. This graph delineates distinct states and confines the set of actions available at each state. Second, we use examples of user decision-making to provide our LLM-powered planner and reasoner with relevant contextual instances, enhancing their capacity to make informed decisions. We show that AVIS achieves state-of-the-art results on knowledge-intensive visual question answering benchmarks such as Infoseek and OK-VQA.

In this paper, we tackle two challenges in multimodal learning for visual recognition: 1) when missing-modality occurs either during training or testing in real-world situations; and 2) when the computation resources are not available to finetune on heavy transformer models. To this end, we propose to utilize prompt learning and mitigate the above two challenges together. Specifically, our modality-missing-aware prompts can be plugged into multimodal transformers to handle general missing-modality cases, while only requiring less than 1% learnable parameters compared to training the entire model. We further explore the effect of different prompt configurations and analyze the robustness to missing modality. Extensive experiments are conducted to show the effectiveness of our prompt learning framework that improves the performance under various missing-modality cases, while alleviating the requirement of heavy model re-training. Code is available.

In this paper, we propose the joint learning attention and recurrent neural network (RNN) models for multi-label classification. While approaches based on the use of either model exist (e.g., for the task of image captioning), training such existing network architectures typically require pre-defined label sequences. For multi-label classification, it would be desirable to have a robust inference process, so that the prediction error would not propagate and thus affect the performance. Our proposed model uniquely integrates attention and Long Short Term Memory (LSTM) models, which not only addresses the above problem but also allows one to identify visual objects of interests with varying sizes without the prior knowledge of particular label ordering. More importantly, label co-occurrence information can be jointly exploited by our LSTM model. Finally, by advancing the technique of beam search, prediction of multiple labels can be efficiently achieved by our proposed network model.
