Regression with Sensor Data Containing Incomplete Observations
This paper addresses a regression problem in which output label values are the results of sensing the magnitude of a phenomenon. A low value of such labels can mean either that the actual magnitude of the phenomenon was low or that the sensor made an incomplete observation. This leads to a bias toward lower values in labels and the resultant learning because labels may have lower values due to incomplete observations, even if the actual magnitude of the phenomenon was high. Moreover, because an incomplete observation does not provide any tags indicating incompleteness, we cannot eliminate or impute them. To address this issue, we propose a learning algorithm that explicitly models incomplete observations corrupted with an asymmetric noise that always has a negative value. We show that our algorithm is unbiased as if it were learned from uncorrupted data that does not involve incomplete observations. We demonstrate the advantages of our algorithm through numerical experiments.

MethaneFuse: Learning from Multi-Sensor Satellite Observations for Methane Plume Detection
Methane plume detection from satellite imagery is constrained by incomplete observations: public satellites provide complementary spatial, spectral, and atmospheric evidence, but real plume cases rarely contain fully pai…
Uniform Inductive Spatio-Temporal Kriging
Inductive spatio-temporal kriging infers signals at unobserved locations from observed sensors, but real-world observations are often incomplete and exhibit block-wise missingness caused by failures, interruptions, or ma…
Physics-Conditioned Synthesis of Internal Ice-Layer Thickness for Incomplete Layer Traces
Internal ice layers imaged by radar provide key evidence of snow accumulation and ice dynamics, but radar-derived layer boundary observations are often incomplete, with discontinuous traces and sometimes entirely missing…
DynaTok: Token-Based 4D Reconstruction from Partial Point Clouds
We address 4D reconstruction from partial point cloud sequences, where depth-sensor observations are incomplete, unordered, and lack explicit temporal correspondences. This geometry-only setting is challenging due to mis…
Point CloudsRegression from Upper One-side Labeled Data
We address a regression problem from weakly labeled data that are correctly labeled only above a regression line, i.e., upper one-side labeled data. The label values of the data are the results of sensing the magnitude o…
