Explicit time integration schemes coupled with Galerkin discretizations of time-dependent partial differential equations require solving a linear system with the mass matrix at each time step. For applications in structural dynamics, the solution of the linear system is frequently approximated through so-called mass lumping, which consists in replacing the mass matrix by some diagonal approximation. Mass lumping has been widely used in engineering practice for decades already and has a sound mathematical theory supporting it for finite element methods using the classical Lagrange basis. However, the theory for more general basis functions is still missing. Our paper partly addresses this shortcoming. Some special and practically relevant properties of lumped mass matrices are proved and we discuss how these properties naturally extend to banded and Kronecker product matrices whose structure allows to solve linear systems very efficiently. Our theoretical results are applied to isogeometric discretizations but are not restricted to them.

Existing machine learning models demonstrate excellent performance in image object recognition after training on a large-scale dataset under full supervision. However, these models only learn to map an image to a predefined class index, without revealing the actual semantic meaning of the object in the image. In contrast, vision-language models like CLIP are able to assign semantic class names to unseen objects in a `zero-shot' manner, although they still rely on a predefined set of candidate names at test time. In this paper, we reconsider the recognition problem and task a vision-language model to assign class names to images given only a large and essentially unconstrained vocabulary of categories as prior information. We use non-parametric methods to establish relationships between images which allow the model to automatically narrow down the set of possible candidate names. Specifically, we propose iteratively clustering the data and voting on class names within them, showing that this enables a roughly 50\% improvement over the baseline on ImageNet. Furthermore, we tackle this problem both in unsupervised and partially supervised settings, as well as with a coarse-grained and fine-grained search space as the unconstrained dictionary.

Progressively applying Gaussian noise transforms complex data distributions to approximately Gaussian. Reversing this dynamic defines a generative model. When the forward noising process is given by a Stochastic Differential Equation (SDE), Song et al. (2021) demonstrate how the time inhomogeneous drift of the associated reverse-time SDE may be estimated using score-matching. A limitation of this approach is that the forward-time SDE must be run for a sufficiently long time for the final distribution to be approximately Gaussian. In contrast, solving the Schr\"odinger Bridge problem (SB), i.e. an entropy-regularized optimal transport problem on path spaces, yields diffusions which generate samples from the data distribution in finite time. We present Diffusion SB (DSB), an original approximation of the Iterative Proportional Fitting (IPF) procedure to solve the SB problem, and provide theoretical analysis along with generative modeling experiments. The first DSB iteration recovers the methodology proposed by Song et al. (2021), with the flexibility of using shorter time intervals, as subsequent DSB iterations reduce the discrepancy between the final-time marginal of the forward (resp. backward) SDE with respect to the prior (resp. data) distribution. Beyond generative modeling, DSB offers a widely applicable computational optimal transport tool as the continuous state-space analogue of the popular Sinkhorn algorithm (Cuturi, 2013).

Large-scale rare events data are commonly encountered in practice. To tackle the massive rare events data, we propose a novel distributed estimation method for logistic regression in a distributed system. For a distributed framework, we face the following two challenges. The first challenge is how to distribute the data. In this regard, two different distribution strategies (i.e., the RANDOM strategy and the COPY strategy) are investigated. The second challenge is how to select an appropriate type of objective function so that the best asymptotic efficiency can be achieved. Then, the under-sampled (US) and inverse probability weighted (IPW) types of objective functions are considered. Our results suggest that the COPY strategy together with the IPW objective function is the best solution for distributed logistic regression with rare events. The finite sample performance of the distributed methods is demonstrated by simulation studies and a real-world Sweden Traffic Sign dataset.

We consider the classic 1-center problem: Given a set $P$ of $n$ points in a metric space find the point in $P$ that minimizes the maximum distance to the other points of $P$. We study the complexity of this problem in $d$-dimensional $\ell_p$-metrics and in edit and Ulam metrics over strings of length $d$. Our results for the 1-center problem may be classified based on $d$ as follows. $\bullet$ Small $d$: Assuming the hitting set conjecture (HSC), we show that when $d=\omega(\log n)$, no subquadratic algorithm can solve 1-center problem in any of the $\ell_p$-metrics, or in edit or Ulam metrics. $\bullet$ Large $d$: When $d=\Omega(n)$, we extend our conditional lower bound to rule out subquartic algorithms for 1-center problem in edit metric (assuming Quantified SETH). On the other hand, we give a $(1+\epsilon)$-approximation for 1-center in Ulam metric with running time $\tilde{O_{\varepsilon}}(nd+n^2\sqrt{d})$. We also strengthen some of the above lower bounds by allowing approximations or by reducing the dimension $d$, but only against a weaker class of algorithms which list all requisite solutions. Moreover, we extend one of our hardness results to rule out subquartic algorithms for the well-studied 1-median problem in the edit metric, where given a set of $n$ strings each of length $n$, the goal is to find a string in the set that minimizes the sum of the edit distances to the rest of the strings in the set.

We study integration and $L^2$-approximation of functions of infinitely many variables in the following setting: The underlying function space is the countably infinite tensor product of univariate Hermite spaces and the probability measure is the corresponding product of the standard normal distribution. The maximal domain of the functions from this tensor product space is necessarily a proper subset of the sequence space $\mathbb{R}^\mathbb{N}$. We establish upper and lower bounds for the minimal worst case errors under general assumptions; these bounds do match for tensor products of well-studied Hermite spaces of functions with finite or with infinite smoothness. In the proofs we employ embedding results, and the upper bounds are attained constructively with the help of multivariate decomposition methods.

We study multiclass online prediction where the learner can predict using a list of multiple labels (as opposed to just one label in the traditional setting). We characterize learnability in this model using the $b$-ary Littlestone dimension. This dimension is a variation of the classical Littlestone dimension with the difference that binary mistake trees are replaced with $(k+1)$-ary mistake trees, where $k$ is the number of labels in the list. In the agnostic setting, we explore different scenarios depending on whether the comparator class consists of single-labeled or multi-labeled functions and its tradeoff with the size of the lists the algorithm uses. We find that it is possible to achieve negative regret in some cases and provide a complete characterization of when this is possible. As part of our work, we adapt classical algorithms such as Littlestone's SOA and Rosenblatt's Perceptron to predict using lists of labels. We also establish combinatorial results for list-learnable classes, including an list online version of the Sauer-Shelah-Perles Lemma. We state our results within the framework of pattern classes -- a generalization of hypothesis classes which can represent adaptive hypotheses (i.e. functions with memory), and model data-dependent assumptions such as linear classification with margin.

This work studies non-cooperative Multi-Agent Reinforcement Learning (MARL) where multiple agents interact in the same environment and whose goal is to maximize the individual returns. Challenges arise when scaling up the number of agents due to the resultant non-stationarity that the many agents introduce. In order to address this issue, Mean Field Games (MFG) rely on the symmetry and homogeneity assumptions to approximate games with very large populations. Recently, deep Reinforcement Learning has been used to scale MFG to games with larger number of states. Current methods rely on smoothing techniques such as averaging the q-values or the updates on the mean-field distribution. This work presents a different approach to stabilize the learning based on proximal updates on the mean-field policy. We name our algorithm \textit{Mean Field Proximal Policy Optimization (MF-PPO)}, and we empirically show the effectiveness of our method in the OpenSpiel framework.

We are studying the problem of estimating density in a wide range of metric spaces, including the Euclidean space, the sphere, the ball, and various Riemannian manifolds. Our framework involves a metric space with a doubling measure and a self-adjoint operator, whose heat kernel exhibits Gaussian behaviour. We begin by reviewing the construction of kernel density estimators and the related background information. As a novel result, we present a pointwise kernel density estimation for probability density functions that belong to general H\"{o}lder spaces. The study is accompanied by an application in Seismology. Precisely, we analyze a globally-indexed dataset of earthquake occurrence and compare the out-of-sample performance of several approximated kernel density estimators indexed on the sphere.

Graph neural networks (GNNs) have been proven to be effective in various network-related tasks. Most existing GNNs usually exploit the low-frequency signals of node features, which gives rise to one fundamental question: is the low-frequency information all we need in the real world applications? In this paper, we first present an experimental investigation assessing the roles of low-frequency and high-frequency signals, where the results clearly show that exploring low-frequency signal only is distant from learning an effective node representation in different scenarios. How can we adaptively learn more information beyond low-frequency information in GNNs? A well-informed answer can help GNNs enhance the adaptability. We tackle this challenge and propose a novel Frequency Adaptation Graph Convolutional Networks (FAGCN) with a self-gating mechanism, which can adaptively integrate different signals in the process of message passing. For a deeper understanding, we theoretically analyze the roles of low-frequency signals and high-frequency signals on learning node representations, which further explains why FAGCN can perform well on different types of networks. Extensive experiments on six real-world networks validate that FAGCN not only alleviates the over-smoothing problem, but also has advantages over the state-of-the-arts.
