Clustering Time Series with Nonlinear Dynamics: A Bayesian Non-Parametric and Particle-Based Approach

Alexander Lin, Yingzhuo Zhang, Jeremy Heng +4

We propose a general statistical framework for clustering multiple time series that exhibit nonlinear dynamics into an a-priori-unknown number of sub-groups. Our motivation comes f…

High-Dimensional Sparse Bayesian Learning without Covariance Matrices

Alexander Lin, Andrew H. Song, Berkin Bilgic +1

Sparse Bayesian learning (SBL) is a powerful framework for tackling the sparse coding problem. However, the most popular inference algorithms for SBL become too expensive for high-…

Mixture Model Auto-Encoders: Deep Clustering through Dictionary Learning

Alexander Lin, Andrew H. Song, Demba Ba

State-of-the-art approaches for clustering high-dimensional data utilize deep auto-encoder architectures. Many of these networks require a large number of parameters and suffer fro…

Reproducibility Made Easy: A Tool for Methodological Transparency and Efficient Standardized Reporting based on the proposed MRSinMRS Consensus

Antonia Susnjar, Antonia Kaiser, Dunja Simicic +4

A recent expert consensus found that non-standard reporting in MRS studies led to poor reproducibility. In order to address this, MRSinMRS guidelines were introduced; however, beca…

Word-Level Explanations for Analyzing Bias in Text-to-Image Models

Alexander Lin, Lucas Monteiro Paes, Sree Harsha Tanneru +2

Text-to-image models take a sentence (i.e., prompt) and generate images associated with this input prompt. These models have created award wining-art, videos, and even synthetic da…

Autoregressive Knowledge Distillation through Imitation Learning

Alexander Lin, Jeremy Wohlwend, Howard Chen +1

The performance of autoregressive models on natural language generation tasks has dramatically improved due to the adoption of deep, self-attentive architectures. However, these ga…
