• Title: Normal-bundle Bootstrap
• Authors: Ruda Zhang and Roger Ghanem
• Abstract summary: We present a method that generates new data which preserve the geometric structure of a given data set. Inspired by algorithms for manifold learning and concepts in differential geometry, our method decomposes the underlying probability measure into a marginalized measure. We apply our method to the inference of density ridge and related statistics, and data augmentation to reduce overfitting.

• Abstract: Probabilistic models of data sets often exhibit salient geometric structure. Such a phenomenon is summed up in the manifold distribution hypothesis, and can be exploited in probabilistic learning. Here we present normal-bundle bootstrap (NBB), a method that generates new data which preserve the geometric structure of a given data set. Inspired by algorithms for manifold learning and concepts in differential geometry, our method decomposes the underlying probability measure into a marginalized measure on a learned data manifold and conditional measures on the normal spaces. The algorithm estimates the data manifold as a density ridge, and constructs new data by bootstrapping projection vectors and adding them to the ridge. We apply our method to the inference of density ridge and related statistics, and data augmentation to reduce overfitting.

• Dissecting embedding method: learning higher-order structures from data [0.0]
  Geometric deep learning methods for data learning often include set of assumptions on the geometry of the feature space. These assumptions together with data being discrete and finite can cause some generalisations, which are likely to create wrong interpretations of the data and models outputs.

• Implicit Manifold Gaussian Process Regression [49.0787777751317]
  Gaussian process regression is widely used to provide well-calibrated uncertainty estimates. It struggles with high-dimensional data because of the implicit low-dimensional manifold upon which the data actually lies. In this paper we propose a technique capable of inferring implicit structure directly from data (labeled and unlabeled) in a fully differentiable way.

We also showcase our method on single cell RNA-sequencing datasets with both continuum and cluster structure.

  This paper studies score approximation, estimation, and distribution recovery of diffusion models, when data are supported on an unknown low-dimensional linear subspace. We show that with a properly chosen neural network architecture, the score function can be both accurately approximated and efficiently estimated. The generated distribution based on the estimated score function captures the data geometric structures and converges to a close vicinity of the data distribution.

  gradient-based explanation algorithms provide perceptually-aligned explanations. We show that the more a feature attribution is aligned with the tangent space of the data, the more perceptually-aligned it tends to be. We suggest that explanation algorithms should actively strive to align their explanations with the data manifold.
