Wasserstein Concentration of Empirical Measures for Dependent Data via the Method of Moments
Arash A. Amini, Luciano Vinas
We establish a general concentration result for the 1-Wasserstein distance between the empirical measure of a sequence of random variables and its expectation. Unlike standard resu…

Laplacian Kernelized Bandit
Shuang Wu, Arash A. Amini
We study multi-user contextual bandits where users are related by a graph and their reward functions exhibit both non-linear behavior and graph homophily. We introduce a principled…

Simple GNNs with Low Rank Non-parametric Aggregators
Luciano Vinas, Arash A. Amini
We revisit recent spectral GNN approaches to semi-supervised node classification (SSNC). We posit that state-of-the-art (SOTA) GNN architectures may be over-engineered for common S…
