Chatterjee's rank correlation coefficient $\xi_n$ is an empirical index for detecting functional dependencies between two variables $X$ and $Y$. It is an estimator for a theoretical quantity $\xi$ that is zero for independence and one if $Y$ is a measurable function of $X$. Based on an equivalent characterization of sorted numbers, we derive an upper bound for $\xi_n$ and suggest a simple normalization aimed at reducing its bias for small sample size $n$. In Monte Carlo simulations of various cases, the normalization reduced the bias in all cases. The mean squared error was reduced, too, for values of $\xi$ greater than about 0.4. Moreover, we observed that non-parametric confidence intervals for $\xi$ based on bootstrapping $\xi_n$ in the usual n-out-of-n way have a coverage probability close to zero. This is remedied by an m-out-of-n bootstrap without replacement in combination with our normalization method.

Given a simple $n$-vertex, $m$-edge graph $G$ undergoing edge insertions and deletions, we give two new fully dynamic algorithms for exactly maintaining the edge connectivity of $G$ in $\tilde{O}(n)$ worst-case update time and $\tilde{O}(m^{1-1/31})$ amortized update time, respectively. Prior to our work, all dynamic edge connectivity algorithms either assumed bounded edge connectivity, guaranteed approximate solutions, or were restricted to edge insertions only. Our results provide an affirmative answer to an open question posed by Thorup [Combinatorica'07].

We study a general factor analysis framework where the $n$-by-$p$ data matrix is assumed to follow a general exponential family distribution entry-wise. While this model framework has been proposed before, we here further relax its distributional assumption by using a quasi-likelihood setup. By parameterizing the mean-variance relationship on data entries, we additionally introduce a dispersion parameter and entry-wise weights to model large variations and missing values. The resulting model is thus not only robust to distribution misspecification but also more flexible and able to capture non-Gaussian covariance structures of the data matrix. Our main focus is on efficient computational approaches to perform the factor analysis. Previous modeling frameworks rely on simulated maximum likelihood (SML) to find the factorization solution, but this method was shown to lead to asymptotic bias when the simulated sample size grows slower than the square root of the sample size $n$, eliminating its practical application for data matrices with large $n$. Borrowing from expectation-maximization (EM) and stochastic gradient descent (SGD), we investigate three estimation procedures based on iterative factorization updates. Our proposed solution does not show asymptotic biases, and scales even better for large matrix factorizations with error $O(1/p)$. To support our findings, we conduct simulation experiments and discuss its application in three case studies.

We study differentially private (DP) algorithms for recovering clusters in well-clustered graphs, which are graphs whose vertex set can be partitioned into a small number of sets, each inducing a subgraph of high inner conductance and small outer conductance. Such graphs have widespread application as a benchmark in the theoretical analysis of spectral clustering. We provide an efficient ($\epsilon$,$\delta$)-DP algorithm tailored specifically for such graphs. Our algorithm draws inspiration from the recent work of Chen et al., who developed DP algorithms for recovery of stochastic block models in cases where the graph comprises exactly two nearly-balanced clusters. Our algorithm works for well-clustered graphs with $k$ nearly-balanced clusters, and the misclassification ratio almost matches the one of the best-known non-private algorithms. We conduct experimental evaluations on datasets with known ground truth clusters to substantiate the prowess of our algorithm. We also show that any (pure) $\epsilon$-DP algorithm would result in substantial error.

Consider a matroid where all elements are labeled with an element in $\mathbb{Z}$. We are interested in finding a base where the sum of the labels is congruent to $g \pmod m$. We show that this problem can be solved in $\tilde{O}(2^{4m} n r^{5/6})$ time for a matroid with $n$ elements and rank $r$, when $m$ is either the product of two primes or a prime power. The algorithm can be generalized to all moduli and, in fact, to all abelian groups if a classic additive combinatorics conjecture by Schrijver and Seymour holds true. We also discuss the optimization version of the problem.

We present a mechanized embedding of higher-order logic (HOL) and algebraic data types (ADT) into first-order logic with ZFC axioms. We implement this in the Lisa proof assistant for schematic first-order logic and its library based on axiomatic set theory. HOL proof steps are implemented as proof producing tactics in Lisa, and the types are interpreted as sets, with function (or arrow) types coinciding with set-theoretic function spaces. The embedded HOL proofs, as opposed to being a layer over the existing proofs, are interoperable with the existing library. This yields a form of soft type system supporting top-level polymorphism and ADTs over set theory, and offer tools to reason about functions in set theory.

The interactive theorem prover, Lean, enables the verification of formal mathematical proofs and is backed by an expanding community. Central to this ecosystem is its mathematical library, mathlib4, which lays the groundwork for the formalization of an expanding range of mathematical theories. However, searching for theorems in mathlib4 can be challenging. To successfully search in mathlib4, users often need to be familiar with its naming conventions or documentation strings. Therefore, creating a semantic search engine that can be used easily by individuals with varying familiarity with mathlib4 is very important. In this paper, we present a semantic search engine for mathlib4 that accepts informal queries and finds the relevant theorems. We also establish a benchmark for assessing the performance of various search engines for mathlib4.

Models with intractable normalizing functions have numerous applications. Because the normalizing constants are functions of the parameters of interest, standard Markov chain Monte Carlo cannot be used for Bayesian inference for these models. A number of algorithms have been developed for such models. Some have the posterior distribution as their asymptotic distribution. Other ``asymptotically inexact'' algorithms do not possess this property. There is limited guidance for evaluating approximations based on these algorithms. Hence it is very hard to tune them. We propose two new diagnostics that address these problems for intractable normalizing function models. Our first diagnostic, inspired by the second Bartlett identity, is in principle broadly applicable to Monte Carlo approximations beyond the normalizing function problem. We develop an approximate version of this diagnostic that is applicable to intractable normalizing function problems. Our second diagnostic is a Monte Carlo approximation to a kernel Stein discrepancy-based diagnostic introduced by Gorham and Mackey (2017). We provide theoretical justification for our methods and apply them to several algorithms in challenging simulated and real data examples including an Ising model, an exponential random graph model, and a Conway--Maxwell--Poisson regression model, obtaining interesting insights about the algorithms in these contexts.

We study the sample complexity of learning an $\varepsilon$-optimal policy in an average-reward Markov decision process (MDP) under a generative model. We establish the complexity bound $\widetilde{O}\left(SA\frac{H}{\varepsilon^2} \right)$, where $H$ is the span of the bias function of the optimal policy and $SA$ is the cardinality of the state-action space. Our result is the first that is minimax optimal (up to log factors) in all parameters $S,A,H$ and $\varepsilon$, improving on existing work that either assumes uniformly bounded mixing times for all policies or has suboptimal dependence on the parameters. Our result is based on reducing the average-reward MDP to a discounted MDP. To establish the optimality of this reduction, we develop improved bounds for $\gamma$-discounted MDPs, showing that $\widetilde{O}\left(SA\frac{H}{(1-\gamma)^2\varepsilon^2} \right)$ samples suffice to learn a $\varepsilon$-optimal policy in weakly communicating MDPs under the regime that $\gamma \geq 1 - \frac{1}{H}$, circumventing the well-known lower bound of $\widetilde{\Omega}\left(SA\frac{1}{(1-\gamma)^3\varepsilon^2} \right)$ for general $\gamma$-discounted MDPs. Our analysis develops upper bounds on certain instance-dependent variance parameters in terms of the span parameter. These bounds are tighter than those based on the mixing time or diameter of the MDP and may be of broader use.

It is important to detect anomalous inputs when deploying machine learning systems. The use of larger and more complex inputs in deep learning magnifies the difficulty of distinguishing between anomalous and in-distribution examples. At the same time, diverse image and text data are available in enormous quantities. We propose leveraging these data to improve deep anomaly detection by training anomaly detectors against an auxiliary dataset of outliers, an approach we call Outlier Exposure (OE). This enables anomaly detectors to generalize and detect unseen anomalies. In extensive experiments on natural language processing and small- and large-scale vision tasks, we find that Outlier Exposure significantly improves detection performance. We also observe that cutting-edge generative models trained on CIFAR-10 may assign higher likelihoods to SVHN images than to CIFAR-10 images; we use OE to mitigate this issue. We also analyze the flexibility and robustness of Outlier Exposure, and identify characteristics of the auxiliary dataset that improve performance.
