Estimating dependence relationships between variables is a crucial issue in many applied domains, such as medicine, social sciences and psychology. When several variables are entertained, these can be organized into a network which encodes their set of conditional dependence relations. Typically however, the underlying network structure is completely unknown or can be partially drawn only; accordingly it should be learned from the available data, a process known as structure learning. In addition, data arising from social and psychological studies are often of different types, as they can include categorical, discrete and continuous measurements. In this paper we develop a novel Bayesian methodology for structure learning of directed networks which applies to mixed data, i.e. possibly containing continuous, discrete, ordinal and binary variables simultaneously. Whenever available, our method can easily incorporate known dependence structures among variables represented by paths or edge directions that can be postulated in advance based on the specific problem under consideration. We evaluate the proposed method through extensive simulation studies, with appreciable performances in comparison with current state-of-the-art alternative methods. Finally, we apply our methodology to well-being data from a social survey promoted by the United Nations, and mental health data collected from a cohort of medical students.

Categorization is one of the basic tasks in machine learning and data analysis. Building on formal concept analysis (FCA), the starting point of the present work is that different ways to categorize a given set of objects exist, which depend on the choice of the sets of features used to classify them, and different such sets of features may yield better or worse categorizations, relative to the task at hand. In their turn, the (a priori) choice of a particular set of features over another might be subjective and express a certain epistemic stance (e.g. interests, relevance, preferences) of an agent or a group of agents, namely, their interrogative agenda. In the present paper, we represent interrogative agendas as sets of features, and explore and compare different ways to categorize objects w.r.t. different sets of features (agendas). We first develop a simple unsupervised FCA-based algorithm for outlier detection which uses categorizations arising from different agendas. We then present a supervised meta-learning algorithm to learn suitable (fuzzy) agendas for categorization as sets of features with different weights or masses. We combine this meta-learning algorithm with the unsupervised outlier detection algorithm to obtain a supervised outlier detection algorithm. We show that these algorithms perform at par with commonly used algorithms for outlier detection on commonly used datasets in outlier detection. These algorithms provide both local and global explanations of their results.

Multinomial prediction models (MPMs) have a range of potential applications across healthcare where the primary outcome of interest has multiple nominal or ordinal categories. However, the application of MPMs is scarce, which may be due to the added methodological complexities that they bring. This article provides a guide of how to develop, externally validate, and update MPMs. Using a previously developed and validated MPM for treatment outcomes in rheumatoid arthritis as an example, we outline guidance and recommendations for producing a clinical prediction model using multinomial logistic regression. This article is intended to supplement existing general guidance on prediction model research. This guide is split into three parts: 1) Outcome definition and variable selection, 2) Model development, and 3) Model evaluation (including performance assessment, internal and external validation, and model recalibration). We outline how to evaluate and interpret the predictive performance of MPMs. R code is provided. We recommend the application of MPMs in clinical settings where the prediction of a nominal polytomous outcome is of interest. Future methodological research could focus on MPM-specific considerations for variable selection and sample size criteria for external validation.

Empirical Bayes provides a powerful approach to learning and adapting to latent structure in data. Theory and algorithms for empirical Bayes have a rich literature for sequence models, but are less understood in settings where latent variables and data interact through more complex designs. In this work, we study empirical Bayes estimation of an i.i.d. prior in Bayesian linear models, via the nonparametric maximum likelihood estimator (NPMLE). We introduce and study a system of gradient flow equations for optimizing the marginal log-likelihood, jointly over the prior and posterior measures in its Gibbs variational representation using a smoothed reparametrization of the regression coefficients. A diffusion-based implementation yields a Langevin dynamics MCEM algorithm, where the prior law evolves continuously over time to optimize a sequence-model log-likelihood defined by the coordinates of the current Langevin iterate. We show consistency of the NPMLE as $n, p \rightarrow \infty$ under mild conditions, including settings of random sub-Gaussian designs when $n \asymp p$. In high noise, we prove a uniform log-Sobolev inequality for the mixing of Langevin dynamics, for possibly misspecified priors and non-log-concave posteriors. We then establish polynomial-time convergence of the joint gradient flow to a near-NPMLE if the marginal negative log-likelihood is convex in a sub-level set of the initialization.

In this article, we study some anisotropic singular perturbations for a class of linear elliptic problems. A uniform estimates for conforming $Q_1$ finite element method are derived, and some other results of convergence and regularity for the continuous problem are proved.

The aim of this paper is to give a systematic mathematical interpretation of the diffusion problem on which Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) models are based. The starting point of our approach is a dissipative functional leading to dynamical equations which allows us to study the symmetries of the model. We discuss the conserved charges and provide a charge-preserving numerical method for solving the dynamical equations. In any dynamical system and also in GRAph Neural Diffusion (GRAND), knowing the charge values and their conservation along the evolution flow could provide a way to understand how GNNs and other networks work with their learning capabilities.

In this article, we create an artificial neural network (ANN) that combines both classical and modern techniques for determining the key length of a Vigen\`{e}re cipher. We provide experimental evidence supporting the accuracy of our model for a wide range of parameters. We also discuss the creation and features of this ANN along with a comparative analysis between our ANN, the index of coincidence, and the twist-based algorithms.

This paper presents an approach for efficiently approximating the inverse of Fisher information, a key component in variational Bayes inference. A notable aspect of our approach is the avoidance of analytically computing the Fisher information matrix and its explicit inversion. Instead, we introduce an iterative procedure for generating a sequence of matrices that converge to the inverse of Fisher information. The natural gradient variational Bayes algorithm without matrix inversion is provably convergent and achieves a convergence rate of order O(log s/s), with s the number of iterations. We also obtain a central limit theorem for the iterates. Our algorithm exhibits versatility, making it applicable across a diverse array of variational Bayes domains, including Gaussian approximation and normalizing flow Variational Bayes. We offer a range of numerical examples to demonstrate the efficiency and reliability of the proposed variational Bayes method.

We hypothesize that due to the greedy nature of learning in multi-modal deep neural networks, these models tend to rely on just one modality while under-fitting the other modalities. Such behavior is counter-intuitive and hurts the models' generalization, as we observe empirically. To estimate the model's dependence on each modality, we compute the gain on the accuracy when the model has access to it in addition to another modality. We refer to this gain as the conditional utilization rate. In the experiments, we consistently observe an imbalance in conditional utilization rates between modalities, across multiple tasks and architectures. Since conditional utilization rate cannot be computed efficiently during training, we introduce a proxy for it based on the pace at which the model learns from each modality, which we refer to as the conditional learning speed. We propose an algorithm to balance the conditional learning speeds between modalities during training and demonstrate that it indeed addresses the issue of greedy learning. The proposed algorithm improves the model's generalization on three datasets: Colored MNIST, Princeton ModelNet40, and NVIDIA Dynamic Hand Gesture.

Graph representation learning for hypergraphs can be used to extract patterns among higher-order interactions that are critically important in many real world problems. Current approaches designed for hypergraphs, however, are unable to handle different types of hypergraphs and are typically not generic for various learning tasks. Indeed, models that can predict variable-sized heterogeneous hyperedges have not been available. Here we develop a new self-attention based graph neural network called Hyper-SAGNN applicable to homogeneous and heterogeneous hypergraphs with variable hyperedge sizes. We perform extensive evaluations on multiple datasets, including four benchmark network datasets and two single-cell Hi-C datasets in genomics. We demonstrate that Hyper-SAGNN significantly outperforms the state-of-the-art methods on traditional tasks while also achieving great performance on a new task called outsider identification. Hyper-SAGNN will be useful for graph representation learning to uncover complex higher-order interactions in different applications.
