Existing dimensionality reduction methods all perform dimensionality reduction by preserving some invariant in the space before and after dimensionality reduction. This paper proposes a new dimensionality reduction invariant: preserving the invariant of the point-distributions similarity. We also de…
The proliferation of complex, black-box AI models has intensified the need for techniques that can explain their decisions. Feature attribution methods have become a popular solution for providing post-hoc explanations, yet the field has historically lacked a formal problem definition. This paper ad
Trajectory similarity retrieval is an important part of spatiotemporal data mining, however, existing methods have the following limitations: traditional metrics are computationally expensive, while learning-based methods suffer from substantial training costs and potential instability. This paper a
Anomaly detection on data streams presents significant challenges, requiring methods to maintain high detection accuracy among evolving distributions while ensuring real-time efficiency. Here we introduce IDK-S, a novel Incremental Distributional Kernel for Streaming anomaly detection that effective
The core problem in multi-view anomaly detection is to represent local neighborhoods of normal instances consistently across all views. Recent approaches consider a representation of local neighborhood in each view independently, and then capture the consistent neighbors across all views via a learn
Detecting abrupt changes in data distribution is one of the most significant tasks in streaming data analysis. Although many unsupervised Change-Point Detection (CPD) methods have been proposed recently to identify those changes, they still suffer from missing subtle changes, poor scalability, or/an…
Recent works have identified that existing methods, which construct persistence diagrams in Topological Data Analysis (TDA), are not robust to noise and varied densities in a point cloud. We analyze the necessary properties of an approach that can address these two issues, and propose a new filter f…
This paper presents a new insight into improving the performance of Stochastic Neighbour Embedding (t-SNE) by using Isolation kernel instead of Gaussian kernel. We show that Isolation kernel addresses two deficiencies of t-SNE that employs Gaussian kernel, and the use of Isolation kernel enables t-S…
A recent Wasserstein Weisfeiler-Lehman (WWL) Graph Kernel has a distinctive feature: Representing the distribution of Weisfeiler-Lehman (WL)-embedded node vectors of a graph in a histogram that enables a dissimilarity measurement of two graphs using Wasserstein distance. It has been shown to produce…
