Some computability-theoretic reductions between principles around
We study the computational content of various theorems with reverse
mathematical strength around Arithmetical Transfinite Recursion
() from the point of view of computability-theoretic
reducibilities, in particular Weihrauch reducibility. Our first main result
states that it is equally hard to construct an embedding between two given
well-orderings, as it is to construct a Turing jump hierarchy on a given
well-ordering. This answers a question of Marcone. We obtain a similar result
for Fra\"iss\'e's conjecture restricted to well-orderings. We then turn our
attention to K\"onig's duality theorem, which generalizes K\"onig's theorem
about matchings and covers to infinite bipartite graphs. Our second main result
shows that the problem of constructing a K\"onig cover of a given bipartite
graph is roughly as hard as the following "two-sided" version of the
aforementioned jump hierarchy problem: given a linear ordering , construct
either a jump hierarchy on (which may be a pseudohierarchy), or an infinite
-descending sequence. We also obtain several results relating the above
problems with choice on Baire space (choosing a path on a given ill-founded
tree) and unique choice on Baire space (given a tree with a unique path,
produce said path)
Stochastic Training of Graph Convolutional Networks with Variance Reduction
Graph convolutional networks (GCNs) are powerful deep neural networks for
graph-structured data. However, GCN computes the representation of a node
recursively from its neighbors, making the receptive field size grow
exponentially with the number of layers. Previous attempts on reducing the
receptive field size by subsampling neighbors do not have a convergence
guarantee, and their receptive field size per node is still in the order of
hundreds. In this paper, we develop control variate based algorithms which
allow sampling an arbitrarily small neighbor size. Furthermore, we prove new
theoretical guarantee for our algorithms to converge to a local optimum of GCN.
Empirical results show that our algorithms enjoy a similar convergence with the
exact algorithm using only two neighbors per node. The runtime of our
algorithms on a large Reddit dataset is only one seventh of previous neighbor
sampling algorithms
A new condition for the uniform convergence of certain trigonometric series
The present paper proposes a new condition to replace both the (-regularly
varying) quasimonotone condition and a certain type of bounded variation
condition, and shows the same conclusion for the uniform convergence of certain
trigonometric series still holds.Comment: 10 page
The universal Vassiliev-Kontsevich invariant for framed oriented links
We give a generalization of the Reshetikhin-Turaev functor for tangles to get
a combinatorial formula for the universal Vassiliev-Kontsevich invariant of
framed oriented links which is coincident with the Kontsevich integral. The
universal Vassiliev-Kontsevich invariant is constructed using the Drinfeld
associator. We prove the uniqueness of the Drinfeld associator. As a corollary
one gets the rationality of the Kontsevich integral. Many properties of the
universal Vassiliev-Kontsevich invariant are established. Connections to
quantum group invariants and to multiple zeta values are discussed.Comment: 24 page
A Remark on "Two-Sided" Monotonicity Condition: An Application to Convergence
To verify the universal validity of the "two-sided" monotonicity condition
introduced in [8], we will apply it to include more classical examples. The
present paper selects the convergence case for this purpose.
Furthermore, Theorem 3 shows that our improvements are not trivial.Comment: 10 page
Some Remarks on the Best Approximation Rate of Certain Trigonometric Series
The main object of the present paper is to give a complete result regarding
the best approximation rate of certain trigonometric series in general complex
valued continuous function space under a new condition which gives an essential
generalization to -regularly varying quasimonotonicity. An application is
present in Section 3.Comment: 14 page
On L1 Convergence of Fourier Series of Complex Valued Functions
In the present paper, we give a brief review of -convergence of
trigonometric series. Previous known results in this direction are improved and
generalized by establishing a new condition.Comment: 13 pages, Accepted by Studia Sci. Math. Hunga
Deterministic consensus maximization with biconvex programming
Consensus maximization is one of the most widely used robust fitting
paradigms in computer vision, and the development of algorithms for consensus
maximization is an active research topic. In this paper, we propose an
efficient deterministic optimization algorithm for consensus maximization.
Given an initial solution, our method conducts a deterministic search that
forcibly increases the consensus of the initial solution. We show how each
iteration of the update can be formulated as an instance of biconvex
programming, which we solve efficiently using a novel biconvex optimization
algorithm. In contrast to our algorithm, previous consensus improvement
techniques rely on random sampling or relaxations of the objective function,
which reduce their ability to significantly improve the initial consensus. In
fact, on challenging instances, the previous techniques may even return a worse
off solution. Comprehensive experiments show that our algorithm can
consistently and greatly improve the quality of the initial solution, without
substantial cost.Comment: European Conference on Computer Vision (ECCV) 2018, oral presentatio
Investigation of antineutrino spectral anomaly with updated nuclear database
Recently, three successful antineutrino experiments (Daya Bay, Double Chooz,
and RENO) measured the neutrino mixing angle theta_13; however, significant
discrepancies were found, both in the absolute flux and spectral shape. In this
study, the antineutrino spectra were calculated by using the updated nuclear
database, and we found that the four isotopes antineutrino spectrum have all
contribution to the 5--7 MeV bump with ENDF/B-VII.1 fission yield. The bump can
be explained well using the updated library and more important isotopes
contribution to the bump were also given. In the last, the fission yield
correlation coefficient between the four isotopes were discussed, and found
that the correlation coefficients are very large.Comment: 5 pages, 7 figures. arXiv admin note: text overlap with

Spectrum Cartography via Coupled Block-Term Tensor Decomposition
Spectrum cartography aims at estimating power propagation patterns over a
geographical region across multiple frequency bands (i.e., a radio map)---from
limited samples taken sparsely over the region. Classic cartography methods are
mostly concerned with recovering the aggregate radio frequency (RF) information
while ignoring the constituents of the radio map---but fine-grained
emitter-level RF information is of great interest. In addition, many existing
cartography methods work explicitly or implicitly assume random spatial
sampling schemes that may be difficult to implement, due to
legal/privacy/security issues. The theoretical aspects (e.g., identifiability
of the radio map) of many existing methods are also unclear. In this work, we
propose a joint radio map recovery and disaggregation method that is based on
coupled block-term tensor decomposition. Our method guarantees identifiability
of the individual radio map of \textit{each emitter} (thereby that of the
aggregate radio map as well), under realistic conditions. The identifiability
result holds under a large variety of geographical sampling patterns, including
a number of pragmatic systematic sampling strategies. We also propose effective
optimization algorithms to carry out the formulated radio map disaggregation
problems. Extensive simulations are employed to showcase the effectiveness of
the proposed approach.Comment: Accepted version; IEEE Transactions on Signal Processing
