The ICH E9(R1) Addendum (International Council for Harmonization 2019) suggests treatment-policy as one of several strategies for addressing intercurrent events such as treatment withdrawal when defining an estimand. This strategy requires the monitoring of patients and collection of primary outcome data following termination of randomized treatment. However, when patients withdraw from a study before nominal completion this creates true missing data complicating the analysis. One possible way forward uses multiple imputation to replace the missing data based on a model for outcome on and off treatment prior to study withdrawal, often referred to as retrieved dropout multiple imputation. This article explores a novel approach to parameterizing this imputation model so that those parameters which may be difficult to estimate have mildly informative Bayesian priors applied during the imputation stage. A core reference-based model is combined with a compliance model, using both on- and off- treatment data to form an extended model for the purposes of imputation. This alleviates the problem of specifying a complex set of analysis rules to accommodate situations where parameters which influence the estimated value are not estimable or are poorly estimated, leading to unrealistically large standard errors in the resulting analysis.

Recurrent neural networks (RNNs) have yielded promising results for both recognizing objects in challenging conditions and modeling aspects of primate vision. However, the representational dynamics of recurrent computations remain poorly understood, especially in large-scale visual models. Here, we studied such dynamics in RNNs trained for object classification on MiniEcoset, a novel subset of ecoset. We report two main insights. First, upon inference, representations continued to evolve after correct classification, suggesting a lack of the notion of being ``done with classification''. Second, focusing on ``readout zones'' as a way to characterize the activation trajectories, we observe that misclassified representations exhibit activation patterns with lower L2 norm, and are positioned more peripherally in the readout zones. Such arrangements help the misclassified representations move into the correct zones as time progresses. Our findings generalize to networks with lateral and top-down connections, and include both additive and multiplicative interactions with the bottom-up sweep. The results therefore contribute to a general understanding of RNN dynamics in naturalistic tasks. We hope that the analysis framework will aid future investigations of other types of RNNs, including understanding of representational dynamics in primate vision.

This paper presents a new approach for training two-stage object detection ensemble models, more specifically, Faster R-CNN models to estimate uncertainty. We propose training one Region Proposal Network(RPN)~\cite{//doi.org/10.48550/arxiv.1506.01497} and multiple Fast R-CNN prediction heads is all you need to build a robust deep ensemble network for estimating uncertainty in object detection. We present this approach and provide experiments to show that this approach is much faster than the naive method of fully training all $n$ models in an ensemble. We also estimate the uncertainty by measuring this ensemble model's Expected Calibration Error (ECE). We then further compare the performance of this model with that of Gaussian YOLOv3, a variant of YOLOv3 that models uncertainty using predicted bounding box coordinates.

This study proposes an interpretable neural network-based non-proportional odds model (N$^3$POM) for ordinal regression. N$^3$POM is different from conventional approaches to ordinal regression with non-proportional models in several ways: (1) N$^3$POM is designed to directly handle continuous responses, whereas standard methods typically treat de facto ordered continuous variables as discrete, (2) instead of estimating response-dependent finite coefficients of linear models from discrete responses as is done in conventional approaches, we train a non-linear neural network to serve as a coefficient function. Thanks to the neural network, N$^3$POM offers flexibility while preserving the interpretability of conventional ordinal regression. We establish a sufficient condition under which the predicted conditional cumulative probability locally satisfies the monotonicity constraint over a user-specified region in the covariate space. Additionally, we provide a monotonicity-preserving stochastic (MPS) algorithm for effectively training the neural network. We apply N$^3$POM to several real-world datasets.

We introduce a general differentiable solver for time-dependent deformation problems with contact and friction. Our approach uses a finite element discretization with a high-order time integrator coupled with the recently proposed incremental potential contact method for handling contact and friction forces to solve PDE- and ODE-constrained optimization problems on scenes with a complex geometry. It support static and dynamic problems and differentiation with respect to all physical parameters involved in the physical problem description, which include shape, material parameters, friction parameters, and initial conditions. Our analytically derived adjoint formulation is efficient, with a small overhead (typically less than 10% for nonlinear problems) over the forward simulation, and shares many similarities with the forward problem, allowing the reuse of large parts of existing forward simulator code. We implement our approach on top of the open-source PolyFEM library, and demonstrate the applicability of our solver to shape design, initial condition optimization, and material estimation on both simulated results and in physical validations.

Conventional neural network elastoplasticity models are often perceived as lacking interpretability. This paper introduces a two-step machine learning approach that returns mathematical models interpretable by human experts. In particular, we introduce a surrogate model where yield surfaces are expressed in terms of a set of single-variable feature mappings obtained from supervised learning. A postprocessing step is then used to re-interpret the set of single-variable neural network mapping functions into mathematical form through symbolic regression. This divide-and-conquer approach provides several important advantages. First, it enables us to overcome the scaling issue of symbolic regression algorithms. From a practical perspective, it enhances the portability of learned models for partial differential equation solvers written in different programming languages. Finally, it enables us to have a concrete understanding of the attributes of the materials, such as convexity and symmetries of models, through automated derivations and reasoning. Numerical examples have been provided, along with an open-source code to enable third party validation.

Prognostic Health Management aims to predict the Remaining Useful Life (RUL) of degrading components/systems utilizing monitoring data. These RUL predictions form the basis for optimizing maintenance planning in a Predictive Maintenance (PdM) paradigm. We here propose a metric for assessing data-driven prognostic algorithms based on their impact on downstream PdM decisions. The metric is defined in association with a decision setting and a corresponding PdM policy. We consider two typical PdM decision settings, namely component ordering and/or replacement planning, for which we investigate and improve PdM policies that are commonly utilized in the literature. All policies are evaluated via the data-based estimation of the long-run expected maintenance cost per unit time, using monitored run-to-failure experiments. The policy evaluation enables the estimation of the proposed metric. We employ the metric as an objective function for optimizing heuristic PdM policies and algorithms' hyperparameters. The effect of different PdM policies on the metric is initially investigated through a theoretical numerical example. Subsequently, we employ four data-driven prognostic algorithms on a simulated turbofan engine degradation problem, and investigate the joint effect of prognostic algorithm and PdM policy on the metric, resulting in a decision-oriented performance assessment of these algorithms.

We tackle the extension to the vector-valued case of consistency results for Stepwise Uncertainty Reduction sequential experimental design strategies established in [Bect et al., A supermartingale approach to Gaussian process based sequential design of experiments, Bernoulli 25, 2019]. This lead us in the first place to clarify, assuming a compact index set, how the connection between continuous Gaussian processes and Gaussian measures on the Banach space of continuous functions carries over to vector-valued settings. From there, a number of concepts and properties from the aforementioned paper can be readily extended. However, vector-valued settings do complicate things for some results, mainly due to the lack of continuity for the pseudo-inverse mapping that affects the conditional mean and covariance function given finitely many pointwise observations. We apply obtained results to the Integrated Bernoulli Variance and the Expected Measure Variance uncertainty functionals employed in [Fossum et al., Learning excursion sets of vector-valued Gaussian random fields for autonomous ocean sampling, The Annals of Applied Statistics 15, 2021] for the estimation for excursion sets of vector-valued functions.

Sequential location recommendation plays a huge role in modern life, which can enhance user experience, bring more profit to businesses and assist in government administration. Although methods for location recommendation have evolved significantly thanks to the development of recommendation systems, there is still limited utilization of geographic information, along with the ongoing challenge of addressing data sparsity. In response, we introduce a Proximity-aware based region representation for Sequential Recommendation (PASR for short), built upon the Self-Attention Network architecture. We tackle the sparsity issue through a novel loss function employing importance sampling, which emphasizes informative negative samples during optimization. Moreover, PASR enhances the integration of geographic information by employing a self-attention-based geography encoder to the hierarchical grid and proximity grid at each GPS point. To further leverage geographic information, we utilize the proximity-aware negative samplers to enhance the quality of negative samples. We conducted evaluations using three real-world Location-Based Social Networking (LBSN) datasets, demonstrating that PASR surpasses state-of-the-art sequential location recommendation methods

We investigate block diagonal and hierarchical nested stochastic multivariate Gaussian models by studying their sample cross-correlation matrix on high dimensions. By performing numerical simulations, we compare a filtered sample cross-correlation with the population cross-correlation matrices by using several rotationally invariant estimators (RIE) and hierarchical clustering estimators (HCE) under several loss functions. We show that at large but finite sample size, sample cross-correlation filtered by RIE estimators are often outperformed by HCE estimators for several of the loss functions. We also show that for block models and for hierarchically nested block models the best determination of the filtered sample cross-correlation is achieved by introducing two-step estimators combining state-of-the-art non-linear shrinkage models with hierarchical clustering estimators.

In this paper we consider from two different aspects the proximal alternating direction method of multipliers (ADMM) in Hilbert spaces. We first consider the application of the proximal ADMM to solve well-posed linearly constrained two-block separable convex minimization problems in Hilbert spaces and obtain new and improved non-ergodic convergence rate results, including linear and sublinear rates under certain regularity conditions. We next consider proximal ADMM as a regularization method for solving linear ill-posed inverse problems in Hilbert spaces. When the data is corrupted by additive noise, we establish, under a benchmark source condition, a convergence rate result in terms of the noise level when the number of iteration is properly chosen.
