For a given elliptic curve $E$ over a finite local ring, we denote by $E^{\infty}$ its subgroup at infinity. Every point $P \in E^{\infty}$ can be described solely in terms of its $x$-coordinate $P_x$, which can be therefore used to parameterize all its multiples $nP$. We refer to the coefficient of $(P_x)^i$ in the parameterization of $(nP)_x$ as the $i$-th multiplication polynomial. We show that this coefficient is a degree-$i$ rational polynomial without a constant term in $n$. We also prove that no primes greater than $i$ may appear in the denominators of its terms. As a consequence, for every finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$ and any $k\in\mathbb{N}^*$, we prescribe the group structure of a generic elliptic curve defined over $\mathbb{F}_q[X]/(X^k)$, and we show that their ECDLP on $E^{\infty}$ may be efficiently solved.

Large Language Models (LLMs) have demonstrated remarkable capabilities in performing complex tasks. Moreover, recent research has shown that incorporating human-annotated rationales (e.g., Chain-of- Thought prompting) during in-context learning can significantly enhance the performance of these models, particularly on tasks that require reasoning capabilities. However, incorporating such rationales poses challenges in terms of scalability as this requires a high degree of human involvement. In this work, we present a novel framework, Amplifying Model Performance by Leveraging In-Context Learning with Post Hoc Explanations (AMPLIFY), which addresses the aforementioned challenges by automating the process of rationale generation. To this end, we leverage post hoc explanation methods which output attribution scores (explanations) capturing the influence of each of the input features on model predictions. More specifically, we construct automated natural language rationales that embed insights from post hoc explanations to provide corrective signals to LLMs. Extensive experimentation with real-world datasets demonstrates that our framework, AMPLIFY, leads to prediction accuracy improvements of about 10-25% over a wide range of tasks, including those where prior approaches which rely on human-annotated rationales such as Chain-of-Thought prompting fall short. Our work makes one of the first attempts at highlighting the potential of post hoc explanations as valuable tools for enhancing the effectiveness of LLMs. Furthermore, we conduct additional empirical analyses and ablation studies to demonstrate the impact of each of the components of AMPLIFY, which, in turn, lead to critical insights for refining in-context learning.

A multiplicity queue is a concurrently-defined data type which relaxes the conditions of a linearizable FIFO queue to allow concurrent Dequeue instances to return the same value. It would seem that this should allow faster implementations, as processes should not need to wait as long to learn about concurrent operations at remote processes and previous work has shown that multiplicity queues are computationally less complex than the unrelaxed version. Intriguingly, recent work has shown that there is, in fact, not much speedup possible versus an unrelaxed queue implementation. Seeking to understand this difference between intuition and real behavior, we extend that work, increasing the lower bound for uniform algorithms. Further, we outline a path forward toward building proofs for even higher lower bounds, allowing us to hypothesize that the worst-case time to Dequeue approaches maximum message delay, which is similar to the time required for an unrelaxed Dequeue. We also give an upper bound for a special case to show that our bounds are tight at that point. To achieve our lower bounds, we use extended shifting arguments, which have been rarely used but allow larger lower bounds than traditional shifting arguments. We use these in series of inductive indistinguishability proofs which allow us to extend our proofs beyond the usual limitations of shifting arguments. This proof structure is an interesting contribution independently of the main result, as developing new lower bound proof techniques may have many uses in future work.

Adversarial attack is commonly regarded as a huge threat to neural networks because of misleading behavior. This paper presents an opposite perspective: adversarial attacks can be harnessed to improve neural models if amended correctly. Unlike traditional adversarial defense or adversarial training schemes that aim to improve the adversarial robustness, the proposed adversarial amendment (AdvAmd) method aims to improve the original accuracy level of neural models on benign samples. We thoroughly analyze the distribution mismatch between the benign and adversarial samples. This distribution mismatch and the mutual learning mechanism with the same learning ratio applied in prior art defense strategies is the main cause leading the accuracy degradation for benign samples. The proposed AdvAmd is demonstrated to steadily heal the accuracy degradation and even leads to a certain accuracy boost of common neural models on benign classification, object detection, and segmentation tasks. The efficacy of the AdvAmd is contributed by three key components: mediate samples (to reduce the influence of distribution mismatch with a fine-grained amendment), auxiliary batch norm (to solve the mutual learning mechanism and the smoother judgment surface), and AdvAmd loss (to adjust the learning ratios according to different attack vulnerabilities) through quantitative and ablation experiments.

With the continue development of Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs), there is a growing concern regarding representations that they encode internally. Analyzing these internal representations is referred to as model interpretation. While the task of model explanation, justifying the predictions of such models, has been studied extensively; the task of model interpretation has received less attention. The aim of this paper is to propose a framework for the study of interpretation methods designed for CNN models trained from visual data. More specifically, we first specify the difference between the interpretation and explanation tasks which are often considered the same in the literature. Then, we define a set of six specific factors that can be used to characterize interpretation methods. Third, based on the previous factors, we propose a framework for the positioning of interpretation methods. Our framework highlights that just a very small amount of the suggested factors, and combinations thereof, have been actually studied. Consequently, leaving significant areas unexplored. Following the proposed framework, we discuss existing interpretation methods and give some attention to the evaluation protocols followed to validate them. Finally, the paper highlights capabilities of the methods in producing feedback for enabling interpretation and proposes possible research problems arising from the framework.

Sensor devices have been increasingly used in engineering and health studies recently, and the captured multi-dimensional activity and vital sign signals can be studied in association with health outcomes to inform public health. The common approach is the scalar-on-function regression model, in which health outcomes are the scalar responses while high-dimensional sensor signals are the functional covariates, but how to effectively interpret results becomes difficult. In this study, we propose a new Functional Adaptive Double-Sparsity (FadDoS) estimator based on functional regularization of sparse group lasso with multiple functional predictors, which can achieve global sparsity via functional variable selection and local sparsity via zero-subinterval identification within coefficient functions. We prove that the FadDoS estimator converges at a bounded rate and satisfies the oracle property under mild conditions. Extensive simulation studies confirm the theoretical properties and exhibit excellent performances compared to existing approaches. Application to a Kinect sensor study that utilized an advanced motion sensing device tracking human multiple joint movements and conducted among community-dwelling elderly demonstrates how the FadDoS estimator can effectively characterize the detailed association between joint movements and physical health assessments. The proposed method is not only effective in Kinect sensor analysis but also applicable to broader fields, where multi-dimensional sensor signals are collected simultaneously, to expand the use of sensor devices in health studies and facilitate sensor data analysis.

Evaluating the utility of synthetic data is critical for measuring the effectiveness and efficiency of synthetic algorithms. Existing results focus on empirical evaluations of the utility of synthetic data, whereas the theoretical understanding of how utility is affected by synthetic data algorithms remains largely unexplored. This paper establishes utility theory from a statistical perspective, aiming to quantitatively assess the utility of synthetic algorithms based on a general metric. The metric is defined as the absolute difference in generalization between models trained on synthetic and original datasets. We establish analytical bounds for this utility metric to investigate critical conditions for the metric to converge. An intriguing result is that the synthetic feature distribution is not necessarily identical to the original one for the convergence of the utility metric as long as the model specification in downstream learning tasks is correct. Another important utility metric is model comparison based on synthetic data. Specifically, we establish sufficient conditions for synthetic data algorithms so that the ranking of generalization performances of models trained on the synthetic data is consistent with that from the original data. Finally, we conduct extensive experiments using non-parametric models and deep neural networks to validate our theoretical findings.

The Mean Field Variational Bayes (MFVB) method is one of the most computationally efficient techniques for Bayesian inference. However, its use has been restricted to models with conjugate priors or those that require analytical calculations. This paper proposes a novel particle-based MFVB approach that greatly expands the applicability of the MFVB method. We establish the theoretical basis of the new method by leveraging the connection between Wasserstein gradient flows and Langevin diffusion dynamics, and demonstrate the effectiveness of this approach using Bayesian logistic regression, stochastic volatility, and deep neural networks.

The dominating NLP paradigm of training a strong neural predictor to perform one task on a specific dataset has led to state-of-the-art performance in a variety of applications (eg. sentiment classification, span-prediction based question answering or machine translation). However, it builds upon the assumption that the data distribution is stationary, ie. that the data is sampled from a fixed distribution both at training and test time. This way of training is inconsistent with how we as humans are able to learn from and operate within a constantly changing stream of information. Moreover, it is ill-adapted to real-world use cases where the data distribution is expected to shift over the course of a model's lifetime. The first goal of this thesis is to characterize the different forms this shift can take in the context of natural language processing, and propose benchmarks and evaluation metrics to measure its effect on current deep learning architectures. We then proceed to take steps to mitigate the effect of distributional shift on NLP models. To this end, we develop methods based on parametric reformulations of the distributionally robust optimization framework. Empirically, we demonstrate that these approaches yield more robust models as demonstrated on a selection of realistic problems. In the third and final part of this thesis, we explore ways of efficiently adapting existing models to new domains or tasks. Our contribution to this topic takes inspiration from information geometry to derive a new gradient update rule which alleviate catastrophic forgetting issues during adaptation.

In this paper we develop a novel neural network model for predicting implied volatility surface. Prior financial domain knowledge is taken into account. A new activation function that incorporates volatility smile is proposed, which is used for the hidden nodes that process the underlying asset price. In addition, financial conditions, such as the absence of arbitrage, the boundaries and the asymptotic slope, are embedded into the loss function. This is one of the very first studies which discuss a methodological framework that incorporates prior financial domain knowledge into neural network architecture design and model training. The proposed model outperforms the benchmarked models with the option data on the S&P 500 index over 20 years. More importantly, the domain knowledge is satisfied empirically, showing the model is consistent with the existing financial theories and conditions related to implied volatility surface.
