Finding the optimal model complexity that minimizes the generalization error (GE) is a key issue of machine learning. For the conventional supervised learning, this task typically involves the bias-variance tradeoff: lowering the bias by making the model more complex entails an increase in the variance. Meanwhile, little has been studied about whether the same tradeoff exists for unsupervised learning. In this study, we propose that unsupervised learning generally exhibits a two-component tradeoff of the GE, namely the model error and the data error -- using a more complex model reduces the model error at the cost of the data error, with the data error playing a more significant role for a smaller training dataset. This is corroborated by training the restricted Boltzmann machine to generate the configurations of the two-dimensional Ising model at a given temperature and the totally asymmetric simple exclusion process with given entry and exit rates. Our results also indicate that the optimal model tends to be more complex when the data to be learned are more complex.

Confounder selection, namely choosing a set of covariates to control for confounding between a treatment and an outcome, is arguably the most important step in the design of observational studies. Previous methods, such as Pearl's celebrated back-door criterion, typically require pre-specifying a causal graph, which can often be difficult in practice. We propose an interactive procedure for confounder selection that does not require pre-specifying the graph or the set of observed variables. This procedure iteratively expands the causal graph by finding what we call "primary adjustment sets" for a pair of possibly confounded variables. This can be viewed as inverting a sequence of latent projections of the underlying causal graph. Structural information in the form of primary adjustment sets is elicited from the user, bit by bit, until either a set of covariates are found to control for confounding or it can be determined that no such set exists. We show that if the user correctly specifies the primary adjustment sets in every step, our procedure is both sound and complete.

Next Point-of-Interest (POI) recommendation is a critical task in location-based services that aim to provide personalized suggestions for the user's next destination. Previous works on POI recommendation have laid focused on modeling the user's spatial preference. However, existing works that leverage spatial information are only based on the aggregation of users' previous visited positions, which discourages the model from recommending POIs in novel areas. This trait of position-based methods will harm the model's performance in many situations. Additionally, incorporating sequential information into the user's spatial preference remains a challenge. In this paper, we propose Diff-POI: a Diffusion-based model that samples the user's spatial preference for the next POI recommendation. Inspired by the wide application of diffusion algorithm in sampling from distributions, Diff-POI encodes the user's visiting sequence and spatial character with two tailor-designed graph encoding modules, followed by a diffusion-based sampling strategy to explore the user's spatial visiting trends. We leverage the diffusion process and its reversed form to sample from the posterior distribution and optimized the corresponding score function. We design a joint training and inference framework to optimize and evaluate the proposed Diff-POI. Extensive experiments on four real-world POI recommendation datasets demonstrate the superiority of our Diff-POI over state-of-the-art baseline methods. Further ablation and parameter studies on Diff-POI reveal the functionality and effectiveness of the proposed diffusion-based sampling strategy for addressing the limitations of existing methods.

Tukey's depth (or halfspace depth) is a widely used measure of centrality for multivariate data. However, exact computation of Tukey's depth is known to be a hard problem in high dimensions. As a remedy, randomized approximations of Tukey's depth have been proposed. In this paper we explore when such randomized algorithms return a good approximation of Tukey's depth. We study the case when the data are sampled from a log-concave isotropic distribution. We prove that, if one requires that the algorithm runs in polynomial time in the dimension, the randomized algorithm correctly approximates the maximal depth $1/2$ and depths close to zero. On the other hand, for any point of intermediate depth, any good approximation requires exponential complexity.

Noise is usually regarded as adversarial to extract the effective dynamics from time series, such that the conventional data-driven approaches usually aim at learning the dynamics by mitigating the noisy effect. However, noise can have a functional role of driving transitions between stable states underlying many natural and engineered stochastic dynamics. To capture such stochastic transitions from data, we find that leveraging a machine learning model, reservoir computing as a type of recurrent neural network, can learn noise-induced transitions. We develop a concise training protocol for tuning hyperparameters, with a focus on a pivotal hyperparameter controlling the time scale of the reservoir dynamics. The trained model generates accurate statistics of transition time and the number of transitions. The approach is applicable to a wide class of systems, including a bistable system under a double-well potential, with either white noise or colored noise. It is also aware of the asymmetry of the double-well potential, the rotational dynamics caused by non-detailed balance, and transitions in multi-stable systems. For the experimental data of protein folding, it learns the transition time between folded states, providing a possibility of predicting transition statistics from a small dataset. The results demonstrate the capability of machine-learning methods in capturing noise-induced phenomena.

Conditional graph entropy is known to be the minimal rate for a natural functional compression problem with side information at the receiver. In this paper we show that it can be formulated as an alternating minimization problem, which gives rise to a simple iterative algorithm for numerically computing (conditional) graph entropy. This also leads to a new formula which shows that conditional graph entropy is part of a more general framework: the solution of an optimization problem over a convex corner. In the special case of graph entropy (i.e., unconditioned version) this was known due to Csisz\'ar, K\"orner, Lov\'asz, Marton, and Simonyi. In that case the role of the convex corner was played by the so-called vertex packing polytope. In the conditional version it is a more intricate convex body but the function to minimize is the same. Furthermore, we describe a dual problem that leads to an optimality check and an error bound for the iterative algorithm.

With the increasing availability of large scale datasets, computational power and tools like automatic differentiation and expressive neural network architectures, sequential data are now often treated in a data-driven way, with a dynamical model trained from the observation data. While neural networks are often seen as uninterpretable black-box architectures, they can still benefit from physical priors on the data and from mathematical knowledge. In this paper, we use a neural network architecture which leverages the long-known Koopman operator theory to embed dynamical systems in latent spaces where their dynamics can be described linearly, enabling a number of appealing features. We introduce methods that enable to train such a model for long-term continuous reconstruction, even in difficult contexts where the data comes in irregularly-sampled time series. The potential for self-supervised learning is also demonstrated, as we show the promising use of trained dynamical models as priors for variational data assimilation techniques, with applications to e.g. time series interpolation and forecasting.

We introduce a new type of query mechanism for collecting human feedback, called the perceptual adjustment query ( PAQ). Being both informative and cognitively lightweight, the PAQ adopts an inverted measurement scheme, and combines advantages from both cardinal and ordinal queries. We showcase the PAQ in the metric learning problem, where we collect PAQ measurements to learn an unknown Mahalanobis distance. This gives rise to a high-dimensional, low-rank matrix estimation problem to which standard matrix estimators cannot be applied. Consequently, we develop a two-stage estimator for metric learning from PAQs, and provide sample complexity guarantees for this estimator. We present numerical simulations demonstrating the performance of the estimator and its notable properties.

As we are aware, various types of methods have been proposed to approximate the Caputo fractional derivative numerically. A common challenge of the methods is the non-local property of the Caputo fractional derivative which leads to the slow and memory consuming methods. Diffusive representation of fractional derivative is an efficient tool to overcome the mentioned challenge. This paper presents two new diffusive representations to approximate the Caputo fractional derivative of order $0<\alpha<1$. Error analysis of the newly presented methods together with some numerical examples are provided at the end.

Graph-centric artificial intelligence (graph AI) has achieved remarkable success in modeling interacting systems prevalent in nature, from dynamical systems in biology to particle physics. The increasing heterogeneity of data calls for graph neural architectures that can combine multiple inductive biases. However, combining data from various sources is challenging because appropriate inductive bias may vary by data modality. Multimodal learning methods fuse multiple data modalities while leveraging cross-modal dependencies to address this challenge. Here, we survey 140 studies in graph-centric AI and realize that diverse data types are increasingly brought together using graphs and fed into sophisticated multimodal models. These models stratify into image-, language-, and knowledge-grounded multimodal learning. We put forward an algorithmic blueprint for multimodal graph learning based on this categorization. The blueprint serves as a way to group state-of-the-art architectures that treat multimodal data by choosing appropriately four different components. This effort can pave the way for standardizing the design of sophisticated multimodal architectures for highly complex real-world problems.
