Ordinary multiplication of natural numbers can be generalized to a ternary operation by considering discrete volumes of lattice hexagons. With this operation, a natural notion of ‘3-primality’ -primality with respect to ternary multiplication- is defined, and it turns out that there are very few 3-primes. They correspond to imaginary quadratic fiel...

... that if we put a 1 as an argument of this product, one of the pairs of sides of the hexagon degenerates to a single point and we instead have a parallelogram (see Figure 4). The discrete volume of this parallelogram is then just the value of the binary product of the other two arguments, so we observe ordinary multiplication as a specialization of the ternary product. ...

... have seen that x, y, 1 = xy. Increasing the third argument by 1 adds a hooked strip of x + y − 1 points along two consecutive edges opposite to those with x and y points (see again Figure 4, where the argument increases from 1 to 2). This allows us to conclude the claimed equality, Scholars of symmetric polynomials will recognize (1) as an alternating sum of elementary symmetric polynomials, 3 ...

Contrastive learning (CL) helps deep networks discriminate between positive and negative pairs in learning. As a powerful unsupervised pretraining method, CL has greatly reduced the performance gap with supervised training. However, current CL approaches mainly rely on sophisticated augmentations, a large number of negative pairs and chained gradie...
The world is overabundant with feature-rich information obscuring the latent causes of experience. How do people approximate the complexities of the external world with simplified internal representations that generalize to novel examples or situations? Theories suggest that internal representations could be determined by decision boundaries that d...
Due to the rare occurrence of anomalous events, a typical approach to anomaly detection is to train an autoencoder (AE) with normal data only so that it learns the patterns or representations of the normal training data. At test time, the trained AE is expected to well reconstruct normal but to poorly reconstruct anomalous data. However, contrary t...
We consider the one-dimensional discrete Schr\"odinger operator with complex-valued sparse periodic potential. The spectrum for a complex-valued periodic potential is a complicated compact set in the complex plane represented by real intersections of algebraic curves determined by a discriminant. We represent the discriminant by Chebyshev polynomia...
This paper leverages the effectiveness of variational autoencoders in removing hair in dermoscopy images and presents an enhanced approach that combines variational autoencoders with generative adversarial learning and disentangled representation referred to as GAD-VAE to produce high-quality dermoscopy images that are free from hair. The proposed...
