Entropy as a Topological Operad Derivation
Tai-Danae Bradley
We share a small connection between information theory, algebra, and topology - namely, a correspondence between Shannon entropy and derivations of the operad of topological simpli…
Probabilistic Graphical Models and Tensor Networks: A Hybrid Framework
Jacob Miller, Geoffrey Roeder, Tai-Danae Bradley
We investigate a correspondence between two formalisms for discrete probabilistic modeling: probabilistic graphical models (PGMs) and tensor networks (TNs), a powerful modeling fra…
At the Interface of Algebra and Statistics
Tai-Danae Bradley
This thesis takes inspiration from quantum physics to investigate mathematical structure that lies at the interface of algebra and statistics. The starting point is a passage from…
Modeling Sequences with Quantum States: A Look Under the Hood
Tai-Danae Bradley, E. Miles Stoudenmire, John Terilla
Classical probability distributions on sets of sequences can be modeled using quantum states. Here, we do so with a quantum state that is pure and entangled. Because it is entangle…
Translating and Evolving: Towards a Model of Language Change in DisCoCat
Tai-Danae Bradley, Martha Lewis, Jade Master +1
The categorical compositional distributional (DisCoCat) model of meaning developed by Coecke et al. (2010) has been successful in modeling various aspects of meaning. However, it f…
What is Applied Category Theory?
Tai-Danae Bradley
This is a collection of introductory, expository notes on applied category theory, inspired by the 2018 Applied Category Theory Workshop, and in these notes we take a leisurely str…
