A Category Theory of Communication Theory
A theory of how agents can come to understand a language is presented. If understanding a sentence $\alpha$ is to associate an operator with $\alpha$ that transforms the representational state of the agent as intended by the sender, then coming to know a language involves coming to know the operators that correspond to the meaning of any sentence. This involves a higher order operator that operates on the possible transformations that operate on the representational capacity of the agent. We formalize these constructs using concepts and diagrams analogous to category theory.

Category Theory in Machine Learning
Over the past two decades machine learning has permeated almost every realm of technology. At the same time, many researchers have begun using category theory as a unifying language, facilitating communication between di…
BIG-bench Machine LearningA Category Theory Approach to Interoperability
In this article, we propose a Category Theory approach to (syntactic) interoperability between linguistic tools. The resulting category consists of textual documents, including any linguistic annotations, NLP tools that …
Distributed Sparse Multicategory Discriminant Analysis
This paper proposes a convex formulation for sparse multicategory linear discriminant analysis and then extend it to the distributed setting when data are stored across multiple sites. The key observation is that for the…
A Convenient Category for Higher-Order Probability Theory
Higher-order probabilistic programming languages allow programmers to write sophisticated models in machine learning and statistics in a succinct and structured way, but step outside the standard measure-theoretic formal…
FormProbabilistic ProgrammingUsing Enriched Category Theory to Construct the Nearest Neighbour Classification Algorithm
This paper is the first to construct and motivate a Machine Learning algorithm solely with Enriched Category Theory, supplementing evidence that Category Theory can provide valuable insights into the construction and exp…
