Recently established, directed dependence measures for pairs $(X,Y)$ of random variables build upon the natural idea of comparing the conditional distributions of $Y$ given $X=x$ with the marginal distribution of $Y$. They assign pairs $(X,Y)$ values in $[0,1]$, the value is $0$ if and only if $X,Y$ are independent, and it is $1$ exclusively for $Y$ being a function of $X$. Here we show that comparing randomly drawn conditional distributions with each other instead or, equivalently, analyzing how sensitive the conditional distribution of $Y$ given $X=x$ is on $x$, opens the door to constructing novel families of dependence measures $\Lambda_\varphi$ induced by general convex functions $\varphi: \mathbb{R} \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$, containing, e.g., Chatterjee's coefficient of correlation as special case. After establishing additional useful properties of $\Lambda_\varphi$ we focus on continuous $(X,Y)$, translate $\Lambda_\varphi$ to the copula setting, consider the $L^p$-version and establish an estimator which is strongly consistent in full generality. A real data example and a simulation study illustrate the chosen approach and the performance of the estimator. Complementing the afore-mentioned results, we show how a slight modification of the construction underlying $\Lambda_\varphi$ can be used to define new measures of explainability generalizing the fraction of explained variance.

Strong stability is a property of time integration schemes for ODEs that preserve temporal monotonicity of solutions in arbitrary (inner product) norms. It is proved that explicit Runge--Kutta schemes of order $p\in 4\mathbb{N}$ with $s=p$ stages for linear autonomous ODE systems are not strongly stable, closing an open stability question from [Z.~Sun and C.-W.~Shu, SIAM J. Numer. Anal. 57 (2019), 1158--1182]. Furthermore, for explicit Runge--Kutta methods of order $p\in\mathbb{N}$ and $s>p$ stages, we prove several sufficient as well as necessary conditions for strong stability. These conditions involve both the stability function and the hypocoercivity index of the ODE system matrix. This index is a structural property combining the Hermitian and skew-Hermitian part of the system matrix.

The application of deep learning to non-stationary temporal datasets can lead to overfitted models that underperform under regime changes. In this work, we propose a modular machine learning pipeline for ranking predictions on temporal panel datasets which is robust under regime changes. The modularity of the pipeline allows the use of different models, including Gradient Boosting Decision Trees (GBDTs) and Neural Networks, with and without feature engineering. We evaluate our framework on financial data for stock portfolio prediction, and find that GBDT models with dropout display high performance, robustness and generalisability with reduced complexity and computational cost. We then demonstrate how online learning techniques, which require no retraining of models, can be used post-prediction to enhance the results. First, we show that dynamic feature projection improves robustness by reducing drawdown in regime changes. Second, we demonstrate that dynamical model ensembling based on selection of models with good recent performance leads to improved Sharpe and Calmar ratios of out-of-sample predictions. We also evaluate the robustness of our pipeline across different data splits and random seeds with good reproducibility.

We present a robust deep incremental learning framework for regression tasks on financial temporal tabular datasets which is built upon the incremental use of commonly available tabular and time series prediction models to adapt to distributional shifts typical of financial datasets. The framework uses a simple basic building block (decision trees) to build self-similar models of any required complexity to deliver robust performance under adverse situations such as regime changes, fat-tailed distributions, and low signal-to-noise ratios. As a detailed study, we demonstrate our scheme using XGBoost models trained on the Numerai dataset and show that a two layer deep ensemble of XGBoost models over different model snapshots delivers high quality predictions under different market regimes. We also show that the performance of XGBoost models with different number of boosting rounds in three scenarios (small, standard and large) is monotonically increasing with respect to model size and converges towards the generalisation upper bound. We also evaluate the robustness of the model under variability of different hyperparameters, such as model complexity and data sampling settings. Our model has low hardware requirements as no specialised neural architectures are used and each base model can be independently trained in parallel.

In novelty detection, the objective is to determine whether the test sample contains any outliers, using a sample of controls (inliers). This involves many-to-one comparisons of individual test points against the control sample. A recent approach applies the Benjamini-Hochberg procedure to the conformal $p$-values resulting from these comparisons, ensuring false discovery rate control. In this paper, we suggest using Wilcoxon-Mann-Whitney tests for the comparisons and subsequently applying the closed testing principle to derive post-hoc confidence bounds for the number of outliers in any subset of the test sample. We revisit an elegant result that under a nonparametric alternative known as Lehmann's alternative, Wilcoxon-Mann-Whitney is locally most powerful among rank tests. By combining this result with a simple observation, we demonstrate that the proposed procedure is more powerful for the null hypothesis of no outliers than the Benjamini-Hochberg procedure applied to conformal $p$-values.

This paper surveys some recent developments in measures of association related to a new coefficient of correlation introduced by the author. A straightforward extension of this coefficient to standard Borel spaces (which includes all Polish spaces), overlooked in the literature so far, is proposed at the end of the survey.

A variant of the standard notion of branching bisimilarity for processes with discrete relative timing is proposed which is coarser than the standard notion. Using a version of ACP (Algebra of Communicating Processes) with abstraction for processes with discrete relative timing, it is shown that the proposed variant allows of both the functional correctness and the performance properties of the PAR (Positive Acknowledgement with Retransmission) protocol to be analyzed. In the version of ACP concerned, the difference between the standard notion of branching bisimilarity and its proposed variant is characterized by a single axiom schema.

Very distinct strategies can be deployed to recognize and characterize an unknown environment or a shape. A recent and promising approach, especially in robotics, is to reduce the complexity of the exploratory units to a minimum. Here, we show that this frugal strategy can be taken to the extreme by exploiting the power of statistical geometry and introducing new invariant features. We show that an elementary robot devoid of any orientation or observation system, exploring randomly, can access global information about an environment such as the values of the explored area and perimeter. The explored shapes are of arbitrary geometry and may even non-connected. From a dictionary, this most simple robot can thus identify various shapes such as famous monuments and even read a text.

A new information theoretic condition is presented for reconstructing a discrete random variable $X$ based on the knowledge of a set of discrete functions of $X$. The reconstruction condition is derived from Shannon's 1953 lattice theory with two entropic metrics of Shannon and Rajski. Because such a theoretical material is relatively unknown and appears quite dispersed in different references, we first provide a synthetic description (with complete proofs) of its concepts, such as total, common and complementary informations. Definitions and properties of the two entropic metrics are also fully detailed and shown compatible with the lattice structure. A new geometric interpretation of such a lattice structure is then investigated that leads to a necessary (and sometimes sufficient) condition for reconstructing the discrete random variable $X$ given a set $\{ X_1,\ldots,X_{n} \}$ of elements in the lattice generated by $X$. Finally, this condition is illustrated in five specific examples of perfect reconstruction problems: reconstruction of a symmetric random variable from the knowledge of its sign and absolute value, reconstruction of a word from a set of linear combinations, reconstruction of an integer from its prime signature (fundamental theorem of arithmetic) and from its remainders modulo a set of coprime integers (Chinese remainder theorem), and reconstruction of the sorting permutation of a list from a minimal set of pairwise comparisons.

Hashing has been widely used in approximate nearest search for large-scale database retrieval for its computation and storage efficiency. Deep hashing, which devises convolutional neural network architecture to exploit and extract the semantic information or feature of images, has received increasing attention recently. In this survey, several deep supervised hashing methods for image retrieval are evaluated and I conclude three main different directions for deep supervised hashing methods. Several comments are made at the end. Moreover, to break through the bottleneck of the existing hashing methods, I propose a Shadow Recurrent Hashing(SRH) method as a try. Specifically, I devise a CNN architecture to extract the semantic features of images and design a loss function to encourage similar images projected close. To this end, I propose a concept: shadow of the CNN output. During optimization process, the CNN output and its shadow are guiding each other so as to achieve the optimal solution as much as possible. Several experiments on dataset CIFAR-10 show the satisfying performance of SRH.
