Kolmogorov Complexity and Solovay Functions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Solovay proved that there exists a computable upper bound f of the prefix-free Kolmogorov complexity function K such that f (x) = K(x) for infinitely many x. In this paper, we consider the class of computable functions f such that K(x)

Coarse-Grained Probabilistic Automata Mimicking Chaotic Systems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Discretization of phase space usually nullifies chaos in dynamical systems. We show that if randomness is associated with discretization dynamical chaos may survive and be indistinguishable from that of the original chaotic system, when an entropic ...

Universality laws for randomized dimension reduction, with applications [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv.org, 2015
Dimension reduction is the process of embedding high-dimensional data into a lower dimensional space to facilitate its analysis. In the Euclidean setting, one fundamental technique for dimension reduction is to apply a random linear map to the data. This

Optimal Rates for Zero-Order Convex Optimization: The Power of Two Function Evaluations [PDF]

open access: yesIEEE Transactions on Information Theory, 2013
We consider derivative-free algorithms for stochastic and nonstochastic convex optimization problems that use only function values rather than gradients.

Algorithmic Randomness and Capacity of Closed Sets

open access: yes, 2011
We investigate the connection between measure, capacity and algorithmic randomness for the space of closed sets. For any computable measure m, a computable capacity T may be defined by letting T(Q) be the measure of the family of closed sets K which have

Finding subsets of positive measure [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
An important theorem of geometric measure theory (first proved by Besicovitch and Davies for Euclidean space) says that every analytic set of non-zero $s$-dimensional Hausdorff measure $\mathcal H^s$ contains a closed subset of non-zero (and indeed ...

Intrinsic Dimensionality Explains the Effectiveness of Language Model Fine-Tuning [PDF]

open access: yesAnnual Meeting of the Association for Computational Linguistics, 2020
Although pretrained language models can be fine-tuned to produce state-of-the-art results for a very wide range of language understanding tasks, the dynamics of this process are not well understood, especially in the low data regime.

The dimension of ergodic random sequences [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Let \mu be a computable ergodic shift-invariant measure over the Cantor space. Providing a constructive proof of Shannon-McMillan-Breiman theorem, V'yugin proved that if a sequence x is Martin-L\"of random w.r.t.

Reducing Revenue to Welfare Maximization: Approximation Algorithms and other Generalizations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
It was recently shown in [http://arxiv.org/abs/1207.5518] that revenue optimization can be computationally efficiently reduced to welfare optimization in all multi-dimensional Bayesian auction problems with arbitrary (possibly combinatorial) feasibility ...
