This document discusses a technique called "data smashing" for zero-knowledge feature-free anomaly detection in data. Data smashing involves quantizing, inverting, and comparing signals to detect anomalies without extracting or using features from the data. It allows detection of deviations from normal patterns in an unlabeled dataset in a way that preserves privacy and limits assumptions about the data's features or generation process.
In the presence of relevant physical observations, one can usually calibrate a computer model, and even estimate systematic discrepancies of the model from reality. Estimating and quantifying the uncertainty in this model discrepancy can lead to reliable predictions - so long as the prediction "is similar to" the available physical observations. Exactly how to define "similar" has proven difficult in many applications. Clearly it depends on how well the computational model captures the relevant physics in the system, as well as how portable the model discrepancy is in going from the available physical data to the prediction. This talk will discuss these concepts using computational models ranging from simple to very complex.

Mx/G(a,b)/1 With Modified Vacation, Variant Arrival Rate With Restricted Admi...IJRES Journal
In this paper, a bulk arrival general bulk service queuing system with modified M-vacation policy, variant arrival rate under a restricted admissibility policy of arriving batches and close down time is considered. During the server is in non- vacation, the arrivals are admitted with probability with ' α ' whereas, with probability 'β' they are admitted when the server is in vacation. The server starts the service only if at least ‘a’ customers are waiting in the queue, and renders the service according to the general bulk service rule with minimum of ‘a’ customers and maximum of ‘b’ customers. At the completion of service, if the number of waiting customers in the queue is less than ‘𝑎’ then the server performs closedown work , then the server will avail of multiple vacations till the queue length reaches a consecutively avail of M number of vacations, After completing the Mth vacation, if the queue length is still less than a then the server remains idle till it reaches a. The server starts the service only if the queue length b ≥ a. It is considered that the variant arrival rate dependent on the state of the server.

MVPA with SpaceNet: sparse structured priorsElvis DOHMATOB
The GraphNet (aka S-Lasso), as well as other “sparsity + structure” priors like TV (Total-Variation), TV-L1, etc., are not easily applicable to brain data because of technical problems
relating to the selection of the regularization parameters. Also, in
their own right, such models lead to challenging high-dimensional optimization problems. In this manuscript, we present some heuristics for speeding up the overall optimization process: (a) Early-stopping, whereby one halts the optimization process when the test score (performance on leftout data) for the internal cross-validation for model-selection stops improving, and (b) univariate feature-screening, whereby irrelevant (non-predictive) voxels are detected and eliminated before the optimization problem is entered, thus reducing the size of the problem. Empirical results with GraphNet on real MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) datasets indicate that these heuristics are a win-win strategy, as they add speed without sacrificing the quality of the predictions. We expect the proposed heuristics to work on other models like TV-L1, etc.
Mathematics (from Greek μάθημα máthēma, “knowledge, study, learning”) is the study of topics such as quantity (numbers), structure, space, and change. There is a range of views among mathematicians and philosophers as to the exact scope and definition of mathematics
We study an elliptic eigenvalue problem, with a random coefficient that can be parametrised by infinitely-many stochastic parameters. The physical motivation is the criticality problem for a nuclear reactor: in steady state the fission reaction can be modeled by an elliptic eigenvalue
problem, and the smallest eigenvalue provides a measure of how close the reaction is to equilibrium -- in terms of production/absorption of neutrons. The coefficients are allowed to be random to model the uncertainty of the composition of materials inside the reactor, e.g., the
control rods, reactor structure, fuel rods etc.
The randomness in the coefficient also results in randomness in the eigenvalues and corresponding eigenfunctions. As such, our quantity of interest is the expected value, with
respect to the stochastic parameters, of the smallest eigenvalue, which we formulate as an integral over the infinite-dimensional parameter domain. Our approximation involves three steps: truncating the stochastic dimension, discretizing the spatial domain using finite elements and approximating the now finite but still high-dimensional integral.
To approximate the high-dimensional integral we use quasi-Monte Carlo (QMC) methods. These are deterministic or quasi-random quadrature rules that can be proven to be very efficient for the numerical integration of certain classes of high-dimensional functions. QMC methods have previously been applied to linear functionals of the solution of a similar elliptic source problem; however, because of the nonlinearity of eigenvalues the existing analysis of the integration error
does not hold in our case.
We show that the minimal eigenvalue belongs to the spaces required for QMC theory, outline the approximation algorithm and provide numerical results.
Measurement of Rule-based LTLf Declarative Process SpecificationsClaudio Di Ciccio
Slides of the paper presented at the 4th Int. Conference on Process Mining (ICPM 2022, Bolzano, Italy).
Synopsis:
The classical checking of declarative Linear Temporal Logic on Finite Traces (LTLf) specifications verifies whether conjunctions of sets of formulae are satisfied by collections of finite traces. The data on which the verification is conducted may be corrupted by a number of logging errors or execution deviations at the level of single elements within a trace. The ability to quantitatively assess the extent to which traces satisfy a process specification (and not only if they do so or not at all) is thus key, especially in process mining scenarios. Previous techniques proposed for this aim either require formulae to be extended with quantitative operators or cater to the coarse granularity of whole traces. In this paper, we propose a framework to devise probabilistic measures for declarative process specifications on traces at the level of events, inspired by association rule mining. Thereupon, we describe a technique that measures the degree of satisfaction of these specifications over bags of traces. To assess our approach, we conduct an evaluation with real-world data.

Techniques to optimize the pagerank algorithm usually fall in two categories. One is to try reducing the work per iteration, and the other is to try reducing the number of iterations. These goals are often at odds with one another. Skipping computation on vertices which have already converged has the potential to save iteration time. Skipping in-identical vertices, with the same in-links, helps reduce duplicate computations and thus could help reduce iteration time. Road networks often have chains which can be short-circuited before pagerank computation to improve performance. Final ranks of chain nodes can be easily calculated. This could reduce both the iteration time, and the number of iterations. If a graph has no dangling nodes, pagerank of each strongly connected component can be computed in topological order. This could help reduce the iteration time, no. of iterations, and also enable multi-iteration concurrency in pagerank computation. The combination of all of the above methods is the STICD algorithm. [sticd] For dynamic graphs, unchanged components whose ranks are unaffected can be skipped altogether.
