Exploring the semantic context in scene images is essential for indoor scene recognition. However, due to the diverse intra-class spatial layouts and the coexisting inter-class objects, modeling contextual relationships to adapt various image characteristics is a great challenge. Existing contextual modeling methods for indoor scene recognition exhibit two limitations: 1) During training, space-independent information, such as color, may hinder optimizing the network's capacity to represent the spatial context. 2) These methods often overlook the differences in coexisting objects across different scenes, suppressing scene recognition performance. To address these limitations, we propose SpaCoNet, which simultaneously models the Spatial relation and Co-occurrence of objects based on semantic segmentation. Firstly, the semantic spatial relation module (SSRM) is designed to explore the spatial relation among objects within a scene. With the help of semantic segmentation, this module decouples the spatial information from the image, effectively avoiding the influence of irrelevant features. Secondly, both spatial context features from the SSRM and deep features from the Image Feature Extraction Module are used to distinguish the coexisting object across different scenes. Finally, utilizing the discriminative features mentioned above, we employ the self-attention mechanism to explore the long-range co-occurrence among objects, and further generate a semantic-guided feature representation for indoor scene recognition. Experimental results on three widely used scene datasets demonstrate the effectiveness and generality of the proposed method. The code will be made publicly available after the blind review process is completed.

The reverse engineering of a complex mixture, regardless of its nature, has become significant today. Being able to quickly assess the potential toxicity of new commercial products in relation to the environment presents a genuine analytical challenge. The development of digital tools (databases, chemometrics, machine learning, etc.) and analytical techniques (Raman spectroscopy, NIR spectroscopy, mass spectrometry, etc.) will allow for the identification of potential toxic molecules. In this article, we use the example of detergent products, whose composition can prove dangerous to humans or the environment, necessitating precise identification and quantification for quality control and regulation purposes. The combination of various digital tools (spectral database, mixture database, experimental design, Chemometrics / Machine Learning algorithm{\ldots}) together with different sample preparation methods (raw sample, or several concentrated / diluted samples) Raman spectroscopy, has enabled the identification of the mixture's constituents and an estimation of its composition. Implementing such strategies across different analytical tools can result in time savings for pollutant identification and contamination assessment in various matrices. This strategy is also applicable in the industrial sector for product or raw material control, as well as for quality control purposes.

Motivated by models of human decision making proposed to explain commonly observed deviations from conventional expected value preferences, we formulate two stochastic multi-armed bandit problems with distorted probabilities on the reward distributions: the classic $K$-armed bandit and the linearly parameterized bandit settings. We consider the aforementioned problems in the regret minimization as well as best arm identification framework for multi-armed bandits. For the regret minimization setting in $K$-armed as well as linear bandit problems, we propose algorithms that are inspired by Upper Confidence Bound (UCB) algorithms, incorporate reward distortions, and exhibit sublinear regret. For the $K$-armed bandit setting, we derive an upper bound on the expected regret for our proposed algorithm, and then we prove a matching lower bound to establish the order-optimality of our algorithm. For the linearly parameterized setting, our algorithm achieves a regret upper bound that is of the same order as that of regular linear bandit algorithm called Optimism in the Face of Uncertainty Linear (OFUL) bandit algorithm, and unlike OFUL, our algorithm handles distortions and an arm-dependent noise model. For the best arm identification problem in the $K$-armed bandit setting, we propose algorithms, derive guarantees on their performance, and also show that these algorithms are order optimal by proving matching fundamental limits on performance. For best arm identification in linear bandits, we propose an algorithm and establish sample complexity guarantees. Finally, we present simulation experiments which demonstrate the advantages resulting from using distortion-aware learning algorithms in a vehicular traffic routing application.

Small data learning problems are characterized by a significant discrepancy between the limited amount of response variable observations and the large feature space dimension. In this setting, the common learning tools struggle to identify the features important for the classification task from those that bear no relevant information, and cannot derive an appropriate learning rule which allows to discriminate between different classes. As a potential solution to this problem, here we exploit the idea of reducing and rotating the feature space in a lower-dimensional gauge and propose the Gauge-Optimal Approximate Learning (GOAL) algorithm, which provides an analytically tractable joint solution to the dimension reduction, feature segmentation and classification problems for small data learning problems. We prove that the optimal solution of the GOAL algorithm consists in piecewise-linear functions in the Euclidean space, and that it can be approximated through a monotonically convergent algorithm which presents -- under the assumption of a discrete segmentation of the feature space -- a closed-form solution for each optimization substep and an overall linear iteration cost scaling. The GOAL algorithm has been compared to other state-of-the-art machine learning (ML) tools on both synthetic data and challenging real-world applications from climate science and bioinformatics (i.e., prediction of the El Nino Southern Oscillation and inference of epigenetically-induced gene-activity networks from limited experimental data). The experimental results show that the proposed algorithm outperforms the reported best competitors for these problems both in learning performance and computational cost.

Most identification methods of unknown parameters of linear regression equations (LRE) ensure only boundedness of a parametric error in the presence of additive perturbations, which is almost always unacceptable for practical scenarios. In this paper, a new identification law is proposed to overcome this drawback and guarantee asymptotic convergence of the unknown parameters estimation error to zero in case the mentioned additive perturbation meets special averaging conditions. Theoretical results are illustrated by numerical simulations.

Causal representation learning algorithms discover lower-dimensional representations of data that admit a decipherable interpretation of cause and effect; as achieving such interpretable representations is challenging, many causal learning algorithms utilize elements indicating prior information, such as (linear) structural causal models, interventional data, or weak supervision. Unfortunately, in exploratory causal representation learning, such elements and prior information may not be available or warranted. Alternatively, scientific datasets often have multiple modalities or physics-based constraints, and the use of such scientific, multimodal data has been shown to improve disentanglement in fully unsupervised settings. Consequently, we introduce a causal representation learning algorithm (causalPIMA) that can use multimodal data and known physics to discover important features with causal relationships. Our innovative algorithm utilizes a new differentiable parametrization to learn a directed acyclic graph (DAG) together with a latent space of a variational autoencoder in an end-to-end differentiable framework via a single, tractable evidence lower bound loss function. We place a Gaussian mixture prior on the latent space and identify each of the mixtures with an outcome of the DAG nodes; this novel identification enables feature discovery with causal relationships. Tested against a synthetic and a scientific dataset, our results demonstrate the capability of learning an interpretable causal structure while simultaneously discovering key features in a fully unsupervised setting.

We introduce a novel structure-preserving method in order to approximate the compressible ideal Magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) equations. This technique addresses the MHD equations using a non-divergence formulation, where the contributions of the magnetic field to the momentum and total mechanical energy are treated as source terms. Our approach uses the Marchuk-Strang splitting technique and involves three distinct components: a compressible Euler solver, a source-system solver, and an update procedure for the total mechanical energy. The scheme allows for significant freedom on the choice of Euler's equation solver, while the magnetic field is discretized using a curl-conforming finite element space, yielding exact preservation of the involution constraints. We prove that the method preserves invariant domain properties, including positivity of density, positivity of internal energy, and the minimum principle of the specific entropy. If the scheme used to solve Euler's equation conserves total energy, then the resulting MHD scheme can be proven to preserve total energy. Similarly, if the scheme used to solve Euler's equation is entropy-stable, then the resulting MHD scheme is entropy stable as well. In our approach, the CFL condition does not depend on magnetosonic wave-speeds, but only on the usual maximum wave speed from Euler's system. To validate the effectiveness of our method, we solve a variety of ideal MHD problems, showing that the method is capable of delivering high-order accuracy in space for smooth problems, while also offering unconditional robustness in the shock hydrodynamics regime as well.

We consider optimal experimental design (OED) for Bayesian nonlinear inverse problems governed by partial differential equations (PDEs) under model uncertainty. Specifically, we consider inverse problems in which, in addition to the inversion parameters, the governing PDEs include secondary uncertain parameters. We focus on problems with infinite-dimensional inversion and secondary parameters and present a scalable computational framework for optimal design of such problems. The proposed approach enables Bayesian inversion and OED under uncertainty within a unified framework. We build on the Bayesian approximation error (BAE) approach, to incorporate modeling uncertainties in the Bayesian inverse problem, and methods for A-optimal design of infinite-dimensional Bayesian nonlinear inverse problems. Specifically, a Gaussian approximation to the posterior at the maximum a posteriori probability point is used to define an uncertainty aware OED objective that is tractable to evaluate and optimize. In particular, the OED objective can be computed at a cost, in the number of PDE solves, that does not grow with the dimension of the discretized inversion and secondary parameters. The OED problem is formulated as a binary bilevel PDE constrained optimization problem and a greedy algorithm, which provides a pragmatic approach, is used to find optimal designs. We demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach for a model inverse problem governed by an elliptic PDE on a three-dimensional domain. Our computational results also highlight the pitfalls of ignoring modeling uncertainties in the OED and/or inference stages.

Threshold selection is a fundamental problem in any threshold-based extreme value analysis. While models are asymptotically motivated, selecting an appropriate threshold for finite samples can be difficult through standard methods. Inference can also be highly sensitive to the choice of threshold. Too low a threshold choice leads to bias in the fit of the extreme value model, while too high a choice leads to unnecessary additional uncertainty in the estimation of model parameters. In this paper, we develop a novel methodology for automated threshold selection that directly tackles this bias-variance trade-off. We also develop a method to account for the uncertainty in this threshold choice and propagate this uncertainty through to high quantile inference. Through a simulation study, we demonstrate the effectiveness of our method for threshold selection and subsequent extreme quantile estimation. We apply our method to the well-known, troublesome example of the River Nidd dataset.

This work studies time-dependent electromagnetic scattering from obstacles whose interaction with the wave is fully determined by a nonlinear boundary condition. In particular, the boundary condition studied in this work enforces a power law type relation between the electric and magnetic field along the boundary. Based on time-dependent jump conditions of classical boundary operators, we derive a nonlinear system of time-dependent boundary integral equations that determines the tangential traces of the scattered electric and magnetic fields. These fields can subsequently be computed at arbitrary points in the exterior domain by evaluating a time-dependent representation formula. Fully discrete schemes are obtained by discretising the nonlinear system of boundary integral equations with Runge--Kutta based convolution quadrature in time and Raviart--Thomas boundary elements in space. Error bounds with explicitly stated convergence rates are proven, under the assumption of sufficient regularity of the exact solution. The error analysis is conducted through novel techniques based on time-discrete transmission problems and the use of a new discrete partial integration inequality. Numerical experiments illustrate the use of the proposed method and provide empirical convergence rates.
