Scholarly articles in mathematical fields feature mathematical statements such as theorems, propositions, etc., as well as their proofs. Extracting them from the PDF representation of the articles requires understanding of scientific text along with visual and font-based indicators. We pose this problem as a multimodal classification problem using text, font features, and bitmap image rendering of the PDF as different modalities. In this paper we propose a multimodal machine learning approach for extraction of theorem-like environments and proofs, based on late fusion of features extracted by individual unimodal classifiers, taking into account the sequential succession of blocks in the document. For the text modality, we pretrain a new language model on a 11 GB scientific corpus; experiments shows similar performance for our task than a model (RoBERTa) pretrained on 160 GB, with faster convergence while requiring much less fine-tuning data. Font-based information relies on training a 128-cell LSTM on the sequence of font names and sizes within each block. Bitmap renderings are dealt with using an EfficientNetv2 deep network tuned to classify each image block. Finally, a simple CRF-based approach uses the features of the multimodal model along with information on block sequences. Experimental results show the benefits of using a multimodal approach vs any single modality, as well as major performance improvements using the CRF modeling of block sequences.

We propose an approach to symbolic regression based on a novel variational autoencoder for generating hierarchical structures, HVAE. It combines simple atomic units with shared weights to recursively encode and decode the individual nodes in the hierarchy. Encoding is performed bottom-up and decoding top-down. We empirically show that HVAE can be trained efficiently with small corpora of mathematical expressions and can accurately encode expressions into a smooth low-dimensional latent space. The latter can be efficiently explored with various optimization methods to address the task of symbolic regression. Indeed, random search through the latent space of HVAE performs better than random search through expressions generated by manually crafted probabilistic grammars for mathematical expressions. Finally, EDHiE system for symbolic regression, which applies an evolutionary algorithm to the latent space of HVAE, reconstructs equations from a standard symbolic regression benchmark better than a state-of-the-art system based on a similar combination of deep learning and evolutionary algorithms.\v{z}
{\em Algorithms with predictions} incorporate machine learning predictions into algorithm design. A plethora of recent works incorporated predictions to improve on worst-case optimal bounds for online problems. In this paper, we initiate the study of complexity of dynamic data structures with predictions, including dynamic graph algorithms. Unlike in online algorithms, the main goal in dynamic data structures is to maintain the solution {\em efficiently} with every update. Motivated by work in online algorithms, we investigate three natural models of predictions: (1) $\varepsilon$-accurate predictions where each predicted request matches the true request with probability at least $\varepsilon$, (2) list-accurate predictions where a true request comes from a list of possible requests, and (3) bounded delay predictions where the true requests are some (unknown) permutations of the predicted requests. For $\varepsilon$-accurate predictions, we show that lower bounds from the non-prediction setting of a problem carry over, up to a $1-\varepsilon$ factor. Then we give general reductions among the prediction models for a problem, showing that lower bounds for bounded delay imply lower bounds for list-accurate predictions, which imply lower bounds for $\varepsilon$-accurate predictions. Further, we identify two broad problem classes based on lower bounds due to the Online Matrix Vector (OMv) conjecture. Specifically, we show that dynamic problems that are {\em locally correctable} have strong conditional lower bounds for list-accurate predictions that are equivalent to the non-prediction setting, unless list-accurate predictions are perfect. Moreover, dynamic problems that are {\em locally reducible} have a smooth transition in the running time. We categorize problems accordingly and give upper bounds that show that our lower bounds are almost tight, including problems in dynamic graphs.
In this letter, the average mutual information (AMI) of generalized quadrature spatial modulation (GQSM) is first derived for continuous-input continuous-output channels. Our mathematical analysis shows that the calculation error induced by Monte Carlo integration increases exponentially with the signal-to-noise ratio. This nature of GQSM is resolved by deriving a closed-form expression. The derived AMI is compared with other related SM schemes and evaluated for different antenna activation patterns. Our results show that an equiprobable antenna selection method slightly decreases AMI of symbols, while the method significantly improves AMI in total.
Quantum algorithms for solving a wide range of practical problems have been proposed in the last ten years, such as data search and analysis, product recommendation, and credit scoring. The concern about privacy and other ethical issues in quantum computing naturally rises up. In this paper, we define a formal framework for detecting violations of differential privacy for quantum algorithms. A detection algorithm is developed to verify whether a (noisy) quantum algorithm is differentially private and automatically generate bugging information when the violation of differential privacy is reported. The information consists of a pair of quantum states that violate the privacy, to illustrate the cause of the violation. Our algorithm is equipped with Tensor Networks, a highly efficient data structure, and executed both on TensorFlow Quantum and TorchQuantum which are the quantum extensions of famous machine learning platforms -- TensorFlow and PyTorch, respectively. The effectiveness and efficiency of our algorithm are confirmed by the experimental results of almost all types of quantum algorithms already implemented on realistic quantum computers, including quantum supremacy algorithms (beyond the capability of classical algorithms), quantum machine learning models, quantum approximate optimization algorithms, and variational quantum eigensolvers with up to 21 quantum bits.
We consider relational semantics (R-models) for the Lambek calculus extended with intersection and explicit constants for zero and unit. For its variant without constants and a restriction which disallows empty antecedents, Andreka and Mikulas (1994) prove strong completeness. We show that it fails without this restriction, but, on the other hand, prove weak completeness for non-standard interpretation of constants. For the standard interpretation, even weak completeness fails. The weak completeness result extends to an infinitary setting, for so-called iterative divisions (Kleene star under division). We also prove strong completeness results for product-free fragments.
We study the complexity of the problem of verifying differential privacy for while-like programs working over boolean values and making probabilistic choices. Programs in this class can be interpreted into finite-state discrete-time Markov Chains (DTMC). We show that the problem of deciding whether a program is differentially private for specific values of the privacy parameters is PSPACE-complete. To show that this problem is in PSPACE, we adapt classical results about computing hitting probabilities for DTMC. To show PSPACE-hardness we use a reduction from the problem of checking whether a program almost surely terminates or not. We also show that the problem of approximating the privacy parameters that a program provides is PSPACE-hard. Moreover, we investigate the complexity of similar problems also for several relaxations of differential privacy: R\'enyi differential privacy, concentrated differential privacy, and truncated concentrated differential privacy. For these notions, we consider gap-versions of the problem of deciding whether a program is private or not and we show that all of them are PSPACE-complete.
In this paper we consider a mathematical model which describes the equilibrium of two elastic rods attached to a nonlinear spring. We derive the variational formulation of the model which is in the form of an elliptic quasivariational inequality for the displacement field. We prove the unique weak solvability of the problem, then we state and prove some convergence results, for which we provide the corresponding mechanical interpretation. Next, we turn to the numerical approximation of the problem based on a finite element scheme. We use a relaxation method to solve the discrete problems that we implement on the computer. Using this method, we provide numerical simulations which validate our convergence results.
Information geometry and Wasserstein geometry are two main structures introduced in a manifold of probability distributions, and they capture its different characteristics. We study characteristics of Wasserstein geometry in the framework of Li and Zhao (2023) for the affine deformation statistical model, which is a multi-dimensional generalization of the location-scale model. We compare merits and demerits of estimators based on information geometry and Wasserstein geometry. The shape of a probability distribution and its affine deformation are separated in the Wasserstein geometry, showing its robustness against the waveform perturbation in exchange for the loss in Fisher efficiency. We show that the Wasserstein estimator is the moment estimator in the case of the elliptically symmetric affine deformation model. It coincides with the information-geometrical estimator (maximum-likelihood estimator) when and only when the waveform is Gaussian. The role of the Wasserstein efficiency is elucidated in terms of robustness against waveform change.
Game theory has by now found numerous applications in various fields, including economics, industry, jurisprudence, and artificial intelligence, where each player only cares about its own interest in a noncooperative or cooperative manner, but without obvious malice to other players. However, in many practical applications, such as poker, chess, evader pursuing, drug interdiction, coast guard, cyber-security, and national defense, players often have apparently adversarial stances, that is, selfish actions of each player inevitably or intentionally inflict loss or wreak havoc on other players. Along this line, this paper provides a systematic survey on three main game models widely employed in adversarial games, i.e., zero-sum normal-form and extensive-form games, Stackelberg (security) games, zero-sum differential games, from an array of perspectives, including basic knowledge of game models, (approximate) equilibrium concepts, problem classifications, research frontiers, (approximate) optimal strategy seeking techniques, prevailing algorithms, and practical applications. Finally, promising future research directions are also discussed for relevant adversarial games.
As soon as abstract mathematical computations were adapted to computation on digital computers, the problem of efficient representation, manipulation, and communication of the numerical values in those computations arose. Strongly related to the problem of numerical representation is the problem of quantization: in what manner should a set of continuous real-valued numbers be distributed over a fixed discrete set of numbers to minimize the number of bits required and also to maximize the accuracy of the attendant computations? This perennial problem of quantization is particularly relevant whenever memory and/or computational resources are severely restricted, and it has come to the forefront in recent years due to the remarkable performance of Neural Network models in computer vision, natural language processing, and related areas. Moving from floating-point representations to low-precision fixed integer values represented in four bits or less holds the potential to reduce the memory footprint and latency by a factor of 16x; and, in fact, reductions of 4x to 8x are often realized in practice in these applications. Thus, it is not surprising that quantization has emerged recently as an important and very active sub-area of research in the efficient implementation of computations associated with Neural Networks. In this article, we survey approaches to the problem of quantizing the numerical values in deep Neural Network computations, covering the advantages/disadvantages of current methods. With this survey and its organization, we hope to have presented a useful snapshot of the current research in quantization for Neural Networks and to have given an intelligent organization to ease the evaluation of future research in this area.
