The choice of the shape parameter highly effects the behaviour of radial basis function (RBF) approximations, as it needs to be selected to balance between the ill-conditioning of the interpolation matrix and high accuracy. In this paper, we demonstrate ho ...
This thesis consists of three applications of machine learning techniques to empirical asset pricing.In the first part, which is co-authored work with Oksana Bashchenko, we develop a new method that detects jumps nonparametrically in financial time series ...
Deep neural networks have completely revolutionized the field of machinelearning by achieving state-of-the-art results on various tasks ranging fromcomputer vision to protein folding. However, their application is hindered bytheir large computational and m ...
Neural tangent kernel (NTK) is a powerful tool to analyze training dynamics of neural networks and their generalization bounds. The study on NTK has been devoted to typical neural network architectures, but it is incomplete for neural networks with Hadamar ...
The way our brain learns to disentangle complex signals into unambiguous concepts is fascinating but remains largely unknown. There is evidence, however, that hierarchical neural representations play a key role in the cortex. This thesis investigates biolo ...
While deep neural networks are state-of-the-art models of many parts of the human visual system, here we show that they fail to process global information in a humanlike manner. First, using visual crowding as a probe into global visual information process ...
Neural networks (NNs) have been very successful in a variety of tasks ranging from machine translation to image classification. Despite their success, the reasons for their performance are still not well-understood. This thesis explores two main themes: lo ...
Near-term quantum devices can be used to build quantum machine learning models, such as quantum kernel methods and quantum neural networks (QNN), to perform classification tasks. There have been many proposals on how to use variational quantum circuits as ...
Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) are widely deployed in air navigation, where numerous applications use them for safety-of-life and positioning, navigation, and timing tasks. Consequently, GPS spoofing attacks are more and more frequent. The aim of this wor ...
The relationship between simulated ion cyclotron emission (ICE) signals s and the corresponding 1D velocity distribution function f(upsilon(perpendicular to)) of the fast ions triggering the ICE is modeled using a two-layer deep neural network. The network ...
