Data driven Dirichlet sampling on manifolds
This article presents a novel method to sampling on manifolds based on the Dirichlet distribution. The proposed strategy allows to completely respect the underlying manifold around which data is observed, and to do massive samplings with low computational effort. This can be very helpful, for instance, in neural networks training process, as well as in uncertainty analysis and stochastic optimization. Due to its simplicity and efficiency, we believe that the new method has great potential. Three manifolds (two dimensional ring, Mobius strip and spider geometry) are considered to test the proposed methodology, and then it is employed to an engineering application, related to gas seal coefficients.

Convergence of graph Dirichlet energies and graph Laplacians on intersecting manifolds of varying dimensions
We study $Γ$-convergence of graph Dirichlet energies and spectral convergence of graph Laplacians on unions of intersecting manifolds of potentially different dimensions. Our investigation is motivated by problems of mac…
Data-Driven Preference Sampling for Pareto Front Learning
Pareto front learning is a technique that introduces preference vectors in a neural network to approximate the Pareto front. Previous Pareto front learning methods have demonstrated high performance in approximating simp…
Consistent Discretization and Minimization of the L1 Norm on Manifolds
The L1 norm has been tremendously popular in signal and image processing in the past two decades due to its sparsity-promoting properties. More recently, its generalization to non-Euclidean domains has been found useful …
Fast determinantal sampling on general spaces and diffusion geometry
Determinantal point processes have recently emerged as a kernel-based alternative to standard independent sampling for constructing efficient minibatches, coresets, and other compact representations of large-scale datase…
Point ProcessesGeneralized Species Sampling Priors with Latent Beta reinforcements
Many popular Bayesian nonparametric priors can be characterized in terms of exchangeable species sampling sequences. However, in some applications, exchangeability may not be appropriate. We introduce a {novel and probab…
