• Abstract: In this article, we introduce the novel concept of samplets by transferring the construction of Tausch-White wavelets to the realm of data. This way we obtain a multilevel representation of discrete data which directly enables data compression, detection of singularities and adaptivity. Applying samplets to represent kernel matrices, as they arise in kernel based learning or Gaussian process regression, we end up with quasi-sparse matrices. By thresholding small entries, these matrices are compressible to O(N log N) relevant entries, where N is the number of data points. This feature allows for the use of fill-in reducing reorderings to obtain a sparse factorization of the compressed matrices. Besides the comprehensive introduction to samplets and their properties, we present extensive numerical studies to benchmark the approach. Our results demonstrate that samplets mark a considerable step in the direction of making large data sets accessible for analysis.

  We present a new sampling-based approach for enabling efficient computation of low-rank Bayesian matrix completion. We show that our approach resolves the sampling difficulties encountered by standard Gibbs samplers for the common two-matrix factorization used in matrix completion. Numerical examples demonstrate superior sampling performance, including better mixing and faster convergence to a stationary distribution.

We empirically validate the effectiveness of our method on various applications involving transfer learning.

  In the anisotropic setting, the commonly used spherical gradient dynamics may fail to recover the true direction. We show that appropriate weight normalization that is reminiscent of batch normalization can alleviate this issue. In particular, under the spiked model with a suitably large spike, the sample complexity of gradient-based training can be made independent of the information exponent.

• Samplet basis pursuit: Multiresolution scattered data approximation with sparsity constraints [0.0]
  We consider scattered data approximation in samplet coordinates with $ell_1$-regularization. By using the Riesz isometry, we embed samplets into reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces. We argue that the class of signals that are sparse with respect to the embedded samplet basis is considerably larger than the class of signals that are sparse with respect to the basis of kernel translates.

We adapt this result to sparse phase retrieval, and show that $O(s log n)$ samples are sufficient for a similar guarantee when the underlying signal is $s$-sparse and $n$-dimensional.

  Deep neural networks often suffer from overconfidence which can be partly remedied by improved out-of-distribution detection. We propose a novel approach that allows for the generation of out-of-distribution datasets based on a given in-distribution dataset. This new dataset can then be used to improve out-of-distribution detection for the given dataset and machine learning task at hand.

  We build upon the notion of the posterior similarity matrix (PSM) in order to suggest new approaches for summarising the output of MCMC algorithms for Bayesian clustering models. A key contribution of our work is the observation that PSMs are positive semi-definite, and hence can be used to define probabilistically-motivated kernel matrices.
