This work aims at making a comprehensive contribution in the general area of parametric inference for discretely observed diffusion processes. Established approaches for likelihood-based estimation invoke a time-discretisation scheme for the approximation of the intractable transition dynamics of the Stochastic Differential Equation (SDE) model over finite time periods. The scheme is applied for a step-size that is either user-selected or determined by the data. Recent research has highlighted the critical ef-fect of the choice of numerical scheme on the behaviour of derived parameter estimates in the setting of hypo-elliptic SDEs. In brief, in our work, first, we develop two weak second order sampling schemes (to cover both hypo-elliptic and elliptic SDEs) and produce a small time expansion for the density of the schemes to form a proxy for the true intractable SDE transition density. Then, we establish a collection of analytic results for likelihood-based parameter estimates obtained via the formed proxies, thus providing a theoretical framework that showcases advantages from the use of the developed methodology for SDE calibration. We present numerical results from carrying out classical or Bayesian inference, for both elliptic and hypo-elliptic SDEs.

We introduce a general framework for measuring acoustic properties such as liner time-invariant (LTI) response, signal-dependent time-invariant (SDTI) component, and random and time-varying (RTV) component simultaneously using structured periodic test signals. The framework also enables music pieces and other sound materials as test signals by "safeguarding" them by adding slight deterministic "noise." Measurement using swept-sin, MLS (Maxim Length Sequence), and their variants are special cases of the proposed framework. We implemented interactive and real-time measuring tools based on this framework and made them open-source. Furthermore, we applied this framework to assess pitch extractors objectively.

We investigate the equational theory of Kleene algebra terms with variable complements -- (language) complement where it applies only to variables -- w.r.t. languages. While the equational theory w.r.t. languages coincides with the language equivalence (under the standard language valuation) for Kleene algebra terms, this coincidence is broken if we extend the terms with complements. In this paper, we prove the decidability of some fragments of the equational theory: the universality problem is coNP-complete, and the inequational theory t <= s is coNP-complete when t does not contain Kleene-star. To this end, we introduce words-to-letters valuations; they are sufficient valuations for the equational theory and ease us in investigating the equational theory w.r.t. languages. Additionally, we prove that for words with variable complements, the equational theory coincides with the word equivalence.

This paper proposes a new multilinear projection method for dimension-reduction in modeling high-dimensional matrix-variate time series. It assumes that a $p_1\times p_2$ matrix-variate time series consists of a dynamically dependent, lower-dimensional matrix-variate factor process and a $p_1\times p_2$ matrix white noise series. Covariance matrix of the vectorized white noises assumes a Kronecker structure such that the row and column covariances of the noise all have diverging/spiked eigenvalues to accommodate the case of low signal-to-noise ratio often encountered in applications, such as in finance and economics. We use an iterative projection procedure to {reduce the dimensions and noise effects in estimating} front and back loading matrices and {to} obtain faster convergence rates than those of the traditional methods available in the literature. Furthermore, we introduce a two-way projected Principal Component Analysis to mitigate the diverging noise effects, and implement a high-dimensional white-noise testing procedure to estimate the dimension of the factor matrix. Asymptotic properties of the proposed method are established as the dimensions and sample size go to infinity. Simulated and real examples are used to assess the performance of the proposed method. We also compared the proposed method with some existing ones in the literature concerning the forecasting ability of the identified factors and found that the proposed approach fares well in out-of-sample forecasting.

We present an acceleration method for sequences of large-scale linear systems, such as the ones arising from the numerical solution of time-dependent partial differential equations coupled with algebraic constraints. We discuss different approaches to leverage the subspace containing the history of solutions computed at previous time steps in order to generate a good initial guess for the iterative solver. In particular, we propose a novel combination of reduced-order projection with randomized linear algebra techniques, which drastically reduces the number of iterations needed for convergence. We analyze the accuracy of the initial guess produced by the reduced-order projection when the coefficients of the linear system depend analytically on time. Extending extrapolation results by Demanet and Townsend to a vector-valued setting, we show that the accuracy improves rapidly as the size of the history increases, a theoretical result confirmed by our numerical observations. In particular, we apply the developed method to the simulation of plasma turbulence in the boundary of a fusion device, showing that the time needed for solving the linear systems is significantly reduced.

We investigate the complexity of several manipulation and control problems under numerous prevalent approval-based multiwinner voting rules. Particularly, the rules we study include approval voting (AV), satisfaction approval voting (SAV), net-satisfaction approval voting (NSAV), proportional approval voting (PAV), approval-based Chamberlin-Courant voting (ABCCV), minimax approval voting (MAV), etc. We show that these rules generally resist the strategic types scrutinized in the paper, with only a few exceptions. In addition, we also obtain many fixed-parameter tractability results for these problems with respect to several natural parameters, and derive polynomial-time algorithms for certain special cases.

Orbifolds are a modern mathematical concept that arises in the research of hyperbolic geometry with applications in computer graphics and visualization. In this paper, we make use of rooms with mirrors as the visual metaphor for orbifolds. Given any arbitrary two-dimensional kaleidoscopic orbifold, we provide an algorithm to construct a Euclidean, spherical, or hyperbolic polygon to match the orbifold. This polygon is then used to create a room for which the polygon serves as the floor and the ceiling. With our system that implements M\"obius transformations, the user can interactively edit the scene and see the reflections of the edited objects. To correctly visualize non-Euclidean orbifolds, we adapt the rendering algorithms to account for the geodesics in these spaces, which light rays follow. Our interactive orbifold design system allows the user to create arbitrary two-dimensional kaleidoscopic orbifolds. In addition, our mirror-based orbifold visualization approach has the potential of helping our users gain insight on the orbifold, including its orbifold notation as well as its universal cover, which can also be the spherical space and the hyperbolic space.

Mesh degeneration is a bottleneck for fluid-structure interaction (FSI) simulations and for shape optimization via the method of mappings. In both cases, an appropriate mesh motion technique is required. The choice is typically based on heuristics, e.g., the solution operators of partial differential equations (PDE), such as the Laplace or biharmonic equation. Especially the latter, which shows good numerical performance for large displacements, is expensive. Moreover, from a continuous perspective, choosing the mesh motion technique is to a certain extent arbitrary and has no influence on the physically relevant quantities. Therefore, we consider approaches inspired by machine learning. We present a hybrid PDE-NN approach, where the neural network (NN) serves as parameterization of a coefficient in a second order nonlinear PDE. We ensure existence of solutions for the nonlinear PDE by the choice of the neural network architecture. Moreover, we present an approach where a neural network corrects the harmonic extension such that the boundary displacement is not changed. In order to avoid technical difficulties in coupling finite element and machine learning software, we work with a splitting of the monolithic FSI system into three smaller subsystems. This allows to solve the mesh motion equation in a separate step. We assess the quality of the learned mesh motion technique by applying it to a FSI benchmark problem.

Conventional methods for object detection typically require a substantial amount of training data and preparing such high-quality training data is very labor-intensive. In this paper, we propose a novel few-shot object detection network that aims at detecting objects of unseen categories with only a few annotated examples. Central to our method are our Attention-RPN, Multi-Relation Detector and Contrastive Training strategy, which exploit the similarity between the few shot support set and query set to detect novel objects while suppressing false detection in the background. To train our network, we contribute a new dataset that contains 1000 categories of various objects with high-quality annotations. To the best of our knowledge, this is one of the first datasets specifically designed for few-shot object detection. Once our few-shot network is trained, it can detect objects of unseen categories without further training or fine-tuning. Our method is general and has a wide range of potential applications. We produce a new state-of-the-art performance on different datasets in the few-shot setting. The dataset link is //github.com/fanq15/Few-Shot-Object-Detection-Dataset.

High spectral dimensionality and the shortage of annotations make hyperspectral image (HSI) classification a challenging problem. Recent studies suggest that convolutional neural networks can learn discriminative spatial features, which play a paramount role in HSI interpretation. However, most of these methods ignore the distinctive spectral-spatial characteristic of hyperspectral data. In addition, a large amount of unlabeled data remains an unexploited gold mine for efficient data use. Therefore, we proposed an integration of generative adversarial networks (GANs) and probabilistic graphical models for HSI classification. Specifically, we used a spectral-spatial generator and a discriminator to identify land cover categories of hyperspectral cubes. Moreover, to take advantage of a large amount of unlabeled data, we adopted a conditional random field to refine the preliminary classification results generated by GANs. Experimental results obtained using two commonly studied datasets demonstrate that the proposed framework achieved encouraging classification accuracy using a small number of data for training.
