Tensors, monads and actions
We exhibit sufficient conditions for a monoidal monad T on a monoidal
category C to induce a monoidal structure on the Eilenberg--Moore category C^T
that represents bimorphisms. The category of actions in C^T is then shown to be
monadic over the base category C.Comment: v4: Minor corrections; added dedicatio
Capacity-building activities related to climate change vulnerability and adaptation assessment and economic valuation for Fiji
The Terms of Reference for this work specified three objectives to the Fiji component: Objective 1a: to provide a prototype FIJICLIM model (covered under PICCAP funding)
Objective 1b: to provide training and transfer of FIJICLIM
Objective 1c: to present and evaluate World Bank study findings and to identify future directions for development and use of FIJICLIM (2-day workshop)
Proceedings of the training course and workshop were prepared by the Fiji Department of Environment. The summaries from these proceedings reflect a very high degree of success with the contracted activities
Modular Autoencoders for Ensemble Feature Extraction
We introduce the concept of a Modular Autoencoder (MAE), capable of learning
a set of diverse but complementary representations from unlabelled data, that
can later be used for supervised tasks. The learning of the representations is
controlled by a trade off parameter, and we show on six benchmark datasets the
optimum lies between two extremes: a set of smaller, independent autoencoders
each with low capacity, versus a single monolithic encoding, outperforming an
appropriate baseline. In the present paper we explore the special case of
linear MAE, and derive an SVD-based algorithm which converges several orders of
magnitude faster than gradient descent.Comment: 18 pages, 8 figures, to appear in a special issue of The Journal Of
