Opportunities for U.S.-China scientific collaboration in building a bilateral quantum network
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2020)
From advancements in time transfer to networked science, quantum networks can enable a new host of experiments that would not otherwise be achievable. We can learn a lot about building such a network to connect quantum ...
Networked interactions, graphical models and econometrics perspectives in data analysis
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2020)
This thesis is composed of two independent parts. In Part I, we study higher-order interactions in both graphical models and networks, i.e., interactions between more than two nodes. In the graphical model setting, we do ...
Estimating lower bounds for time series prediction error
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2020)
Research on how to evaluate the time series prediction algorithms are relatively under investigated compared to those to develop prediction algorithms. This research presents a way to estimate lower bounds for a time series ...
Discrimination, fairness and prediction in policing : fare evasion in New York City
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2020)
Predictive policing has quickly become widespread in the United States. Practitioners claim it can greatly increase police efficiency and base decisions on objective statistics. Critics say that these algorithms reproduce ...
