We present the application of a low dimensional manifold model (LDMM) on hyperspectral image (HSI) reconstruction. An important property of hyperspectral images is that the patch manifold, which is sampled by the three-dimensional blocks in the data cube, is generally of a low dimensional nature. This is a generalization of low-rank models in that hyperspectral images with nonlinear mixing terms can also fit in this framework. The point integral method (PIM) is used to solve a Laplace-Beltrami equation over a point cloud sampling the patch manifold in LDMM. Both numerical simulations and theoretical analysis show that the sample points constraint is correctly enforced by PIM. The framework is demonstrated by experiments on the reconstruction of both linear and nonlinear mixed hyperspectral images with a significant number of missing voxels and several entirely missing spectral bands.

In this paper, we give an almost complete classication of toric surface codes of dimension less than or equal to 7, according to monomially equivalence. This is a natural extension of our previous work [YZ], [LYZZ]. More pairs of monomially equivalent toric codes constructed from non-equivalent lattice polytopes are discovered. A new phenomenon appears, that is, the monomially non-equivalence of two toric codes C P(10)7and CP(19)7 can be discerned on Fq, for all q  8, except q = 29. This sudden break seems to be strange and interesting. Moreover, the parameters, such as the numbers of codewords with dierent weights, depends on q heavily. More meticulous analyses have been made to have the possible distinct families of reducible polynomials.

In this paper we analyze the Kahrobaei-Lam-Shpilrain (KLS) key exchange protocols that use extensions by endomorpisms of matrices over a Galois field proposed in \cite{Kahrobaei-Lam-Shpilrain:2014}. We show that both protocols are vulnerable to a simple linear algebra attack.

We propose to study the Hessian metric of given functional in the space of probability space embedded with L^2–Wasserstein (optimal transport) metric. We name it transport Hessian metric, which contains and extends the classical L^2–Wasserstein metric. We formulate several dynamical systems associated with transport Hessian metrics. Several connections between transport Hessian metrics and math physics equations are discovered. E.g., the transport Hessian gradient flow, including Newton’s flow, formulates a mean-field kernel Stein variational gradient flow; The transport Hessian Hamiltonian flow of negative Boltzmann-Shannon entropy forms the Shallow water’s equation; The transport Hessian gradient flow of Fisher information forms the heat equation. Several examples and closed-form solutions of finite-dimensional transport Hessian metrics and dynamics are presented.

Real-time crime forecasting is important. However, accurate prediction of when and where the next crime will happen is difficult. No known physical model provides a reasonable approximation to such a complex system. Historical crime data are sparse in both space and time and the signal of interests is weak. In this work, we first present a proper representation of crime data. We then adapt the spatial temporal residual network on the well represented data to predict the distribution of crime in Los Angeles at the scale of hours in neighborhood-sized parcels. These experiments as well as comparisons with several existing approaches to prediction demonstrate the superiority of the proposed model in terms of accuracy. Finally, we present a ternarization technique to address the resource consumption issue for its deployment in real world. This work is an extension of our short conference proceeding paper [Wang et al, Arxiv 1707.03340].
