• Abstract: Conventional formulation of quantum sensing has been mostly developed in the context of local estimation, where the unknown parameter is roughly known. In contrast, global sensing, where the prior information is incomplete and the unknown parameter is only known to lie within a broad interval, is practically more engaging but has received far less theoretical attention. Available formulations of global sensing rely on adaptive Bayesian strategies requiring on-the-fly change in measurement settings, or minimizing average uncertainty yielding unsaturable bounds. Here, we provide an operationally motivated approach to global sensing for fixed but optimized settings. Our scheme yields a saturable precision bound optimizing the measurement as well as the probe preparation simultaneously. The formalism is general and computationally scalable for generic bosonic multimode Gaussian or many-particle free-fermionic quantum sensors. We illustrate the implications for Gaussian thermometry and Gaussian phase estimation by showing that the optimal measurement changes, either gradually or abruptly, from homodyne for local sensing, towards heterodyne for global sensing. In contrast, for fermionic transverse XY probes, the optimal measurement basis stays fixed independent of width.

  We present a fully information theoretic approach to renormalization inspired by Bayesian statistical inference. The main insight of Bayesian Renormalization is that the Fisher metric defines a correlation length that plays the role of an emergent RG scale. We provide insight into how the Bayesian Renormalization scheme relates to existing methods for data compression and data generation.

  We propose a novel method called SHS-Net for oriented normal estimation of point clouds by learning signed hyper surfaces. The signed hyper surfaces are implicitly learned in a high-dimensional feature space where the local and global information is aggregated. An attention-weighted normal prediction module is proposed as a decoder, which takes the local and global latent codes as input to predict oriented normals.

  Existing generalization bounds fail to explain crucial factors that drive the generalization of modern neural networks. We derive instance-dependent generalization bounds that depend on the local Lipschitz regularity of the learned prediction function in the data space. We empirically analyze our generalization bounds for neural networks, showing that the bound values are meaningful and capture the effect of popular regularization methods during training.

  We show that efficiency of Metropolis-Hastings (M-H) algorithms in discrete spaces can be characterized by an acceptance rate that is independent of the target distribution. Knowledge of the optimal acceptance rate allows one to automatically tune the neighborhood size of a proposal distribution in a discrete space, directly analogous to step-size control in continuous spaces.
