Dynamic network captures time-varying interactions among multiple entities at different time points, and detecting its structural change points is of central interest. This article proposes a novel…
Dynamic heterogeneous networks describe the temporal evolution of interactions among nodes and edges of different types. While there is a rich literature on finding communities in dynamic networks,…
Modeling event patterns is a central task in a wide range of disciplines. In applications such as studying human activity patterns, events often arrive clustered with sporadic and long periods of i…
Transfer learning (TL) has been demonstrated its feasibility on fast remodeling for fiber nonlinearity equalization. It will be very efficient with fine-tuning rather than retraining when the chann…
Many stochastic dynamic programs (DPs) have a weakly coupled structure in that a set of linking constraints in each period couples an otherwise independent collection of subproblems. Two widely stu…
The problem of finding densely connected subgraphs in a network has attracted a lot of recent interest. Such subgraphs are sometimes referred to as communities in social networks or molecular modul…
Mark-point dependence plays a critical role in research problems that can be fitted into the general framework of marked point processes. In this work, we focus on adjusting for mark-point dependen…
Learning the latent network structure from large scale multivariate point process data is an important task in a wide range of scientific and business applications. For instance, we might wish to e…
Deciding whether saddle points exist or are approximable for nonconvex-nonconcave problems is usually intractable. This paper takes a step towards understanding a broad class of nonconvex-nonconcav…
The Kerr microresonators have aroused widespread interests for their ultrahigh integration, compatible fabrication and ultralow energy consumption. Similar to the traditional mode-locked fiber lase…
