Augmented Memory: Sample-Efficient Generative Molecular Design with Reinforcement Learning

Philippe Schwaller, Jeff Guo

Sample efficiency is a fundamental challenge in de novo molecular design. Ideally, molecular generative models should learn to satisfy a desired objective under minimal calls to oracles (computational property predictors). This problem becomes more apparen ...

Quantifying the Unknown: Data-Driven Approaches and Applications in Energy Systems

Paul Scharnhorst

In light of the challenges posed by climate change and the goals of the Paris Agreement, electricity generation is shifting to a more renewable and decentralized pattern, while the operation of systems like buildings is increasingly electrified. This calls ...

Further Collapses in TFNP

Mika Tapani Göös, Gilbert Théodore Maystre, Siddhartha Jain, Alexandros Paul Hollender

We show EOPL = PLS \cap PsansP \sansP AD. Here the class EOPL consists of all total search problems that reduce to the END -OF -POTENTIAL -LINE problem, which was introduced in the works by Hub'acv \ek and Yogev (SICOMP 2020) and Fearnley et al. (JCSS 202 ...

COMMUNICATION LOWER BOUNDS AND OPTIMAL ALGORITHMS FOR MULTIPLE TENSOR-TIMES-MATRIX COMPUTATION

Laura Grigori

Multiple tensor-times-matrix (Multi-TTM) is a key computation in algorithms for computing and operating with the Tucker tensor decomposition, which is frequently used in multidimensional data analysis. We establish communication lower bounds that determine ...

Approximation Algorithms for Allocation and Network Design

Etienne Michel François Bamas

In this thesis, we give new approximation algorithms for some NP-hard problems arising in resource allocation and network design. As a resource allocation problem, we study the Santa Claus problem (also known as the MaxMin Fair Allocation problem) in which ...

Certification of Bottleneck Task Assignment With Shortest Path Criteria

Maryam Kamgarpour, Tony Alan Wood

Minimising the longest travel distance for a group of mobile robots with interchangeable goals requires knowledge of the shortest length paths between all robots and goal destinations. Determining the exact length of the shortest paths in an environment wi ...

Quantitative Methods for Omnichannel Decision-Making

Andrey Vasilyev

Omnichannel retail has emerged as the new standard in today's commerce landscape, with retailers integrating their physical and online channels to enhance the customer shopping experience. However, such integration presents significant challenges for retai ...

Sketches, metrics and fast algorithms

Navid Nouri

As it has become easier and cheaper to collect big datasets in the last few decades, designing efficient and low-cost algorithms for these datasets has attracted unprecedented attention. However, in most applications, even storing datasets as acquired has ...

Further Collapses in TFNP

Mika Tapani Göös, Gilbert Théodore Maystre, Alexandros Paul Hollender, Siddhartha Jain

We show EOPL = PLS ∩ PPAD. Here the class EOPL consists of all total search problems that reduce to the End-of-Potential-Line problem, which was introduced in the works by Hubáček and Yogev (SICOMP 2020) and Fearnley et al. (JCSS 2020). In particular, our ...

Hybrid Flock - Formation Control Algorithms

Alcherio Martinoli, Cyrill Silvan Baumann

Two prominent categories for achieving coordinated multirobot displacement are flocking and navigation in formation. Both categories have their own body of literature and characteristics, including their respective advantages and disadvantages. While typic ...

Beyond Local Optimality of Buffer and Splitter Insertion for AQFP Circuits

Giovanni De Micheli, Heinz Riener, Siang-Yun Lee

Adiabatic quantum-flux parametron (AQFP) is an energy-efficient superconducting technology. Buffer and splitter (B/S) cells must be inserted to an AQFP circuit to meet the technology-imposed constraints on path balancing and fanout branching. These cells a ...

List Ordered Statistics Decoders for Polar Codes

Andreas Peter Burg, Yifei Shen, Leyu Zhang

The de-facto standard decoding algorithm for polar codes, successive cancellation list (SCL) decoding, is a breadth-first search algorithm. By keeping a list of candidate codewords, SCL decoding improves the performance as the list size L increases. Howeve ...

Minimum Cost Intervention Design for Causal Effect Identification

Negar Kiyavash, Seyed Jalal Etesami, Sina Akbari

Pearl's do calculus is a complete axiomatic approach to learn the identifiable causal effects from observational data. When such an effect is not identifiable, it is necessary to perform a collection of often costly interventions in the system to learn the ...

An Analysis of Super-Net Heuristics in Weight-Sharing NAS

Mathieu Salzmann, Kaicheng Yu

Weight sharing promises to make neural architecture search (NAS) tractable even on commodity hardware. Existing methods in this space rely on a diverse set of heuristics to design and train the shared-weight backbone network, a.k.a. the super-net. Since he ...

Proofs, Circuits, and Communication

Mika Tapani Göös

We survey lower-bound results in complexity theory that have been obtained via newfound interconnections between propositional proof complexity, boolean circuit complexity, and query/communication complexity. We advocate for the theory of total search prob ...
