arXiv, 2017 We propose a statistical model for natural language that begins by considering language as a monoid, then representing it in complex matrices with a compatible translation invariant probability measure. We interpret the probability measure as arising via the Born rule from a translation invariant matrix product state.

Mutual Query Network for Multi-Modal Product Image Segmentation [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 Product image segmentation is vital in e-commerce. Most existing methods extract the product image foreground only based on the visual modality, making it difficult to distinguish irrelevant products. As product titles contain abundant appearance information and provide complementary cues for product image segmentation, we propose a mutual query ...

Bottom Up Quotients and Residuals for Tree Languages [PDF]
arXiv, 2015 In this paper, we extend the notion of tree language quotients to bottom-up quotients. Instead of computing the residual of a tree language from top to bottom and producing a list of tree languages, we show how to compute a set of k-ary trees, where k is an arbitrary integer.
