In a previous paper, we began the study of sequence prediction algorithms adapted to stringological word complexity measures. One measure we considered was left-to-right (most-significant-digit-first) automaticity. Here, we show a statistically and computationally efficient algorithm adapted to the ``dual'' right-to-left (least-significant-digit-first) automaticity, which turns out to be substantially different for our purpose. We also demonstrate a prediction algorithm for a more expressive measure that we call ``arithmetic repetition complexity''. In particular, the latter can be used for predicting the so-called mix-automatic sequences.
Improved Kernel Partial Least Squares (IKPLS) algorithms 1 and 2 are among the fastest PLS calibration algorithms. This article focuses on two shared steps, the computation of the $\mathbf{X}$ rotations, $\mathbf{R}$, and the $\mathbf{Y}$ loadings, $\mathbf{Q}$, and accelerates b…
We study the problem of recalibrating an online predictor [KE17, OKS24]: given an arbitrary "hint" sequence of forecasts, the learner must output new predictions that are calibrated while incurring small excess error relative to the original forecasts, under a proper loss. We giv…
The silhouette is one of the most widely used measures to assess the quality of a $k$-clustering of a dataset of $n$ elements. Its evaluation requires no information beyond the clustering assignment. In addition, the silhouette is extremely easy to interpret, providing a score to…
We study the problem of k-means clustering on large datasets. The state-of-the-art for the problem is given by coresets-based approaches, which build small weighted summaries of the input and derive approximate solutions with rigorous quality guarantees from them. One of the most…
Modern LLM deployments use a number of implementation choices and inference optimizations (e.g., batching, custom kernels, and quantization) on top of fixed weights, so two engines serving "the same model" can produce meaningfully different distributions. We study the problem of…
We study stabilizer state testing and learning with limited coherent quantum memory. Here an algorithm sequentially receives copies of an unknown $n$-qubit state, but may keep only $k$ qubits of coherent quantum memory between measurements. With unrestricted memory, seminal work…
