چکیده

The set of Euclidean distance matrices has a well-known representation as a convex cone. The problems of representing the group averages of K distance matrices are discussed, but not fully resolved, in the context of SMACOF, Generalized Orthogonal Procrustes Analysis and Individual Differences Scaling. The polar (or dual) cone representation, corresponding to inner-products around a centroid, is also discussed. Some new characterisations of distance cones in terms of circumhyperspheres are presented.

Hierarchical Group Compromise Ranking Methodology Based on Euclidean–Hausdorff Distance Measure Under Uncertainty: An Application to Facility Location Selection Problem

Proposing a hierarchical group compromise method can be regarded as a one of major multi-attributes decision-making tool that can be introduced to rank the possible alternatives among conflict criteria. Decision makers’ (DMs’) judgments are considered as imprecise or fuzzy in complex and hesitant situations. In the group decision making, an aggregation of DMs’ judgments and fuzzy group compromi...

Coordinate Shadows of Semidefinite and Euclidean Distance Matrices

We consider the projected semi-definite and Euclidean distance cones onto a subset of the matrix entries. These two sets are precisely the input data defining feasible semi-definite and Euclidean distance completion problems. We classify when these sets are closed, and use the boundary structure of these two sets to elucidate the Krislock-Wolkowicz facial reduction algorithm. In particular, we ...

Modeling the distribution of distance data in Euclidean space

Phylogenetic inference-the derivation of a hypothesis for the common evolutionary history of a group of speciesis an active area of research at the intersection of biology, computer science, mathematics, and statistics. One assumes the data contains a phylogenetic signal that will be recovered with varying accuracy due to the quality of the method used, and the quality of the data. The input fo...

Hyperbolic Entailment Cones for Learning Hierarchical Embeddings

Learning graph representations via lowdimensional embeddings that preserve relevant network properties is an important class of problems in machine learning. We here present a novel method to embed directed acyclic graphs. Following prior work, we first advocate for using hyperbolic spaces which provably model tree-like structures better than Euclidean geometry. Second, we view hierarchical rel...

Parametric Height Field Ray Tracing

Height field ray tracing is one approach to photorealistic visualization of terrain. Parametric methods, which fall into a new class of height field ray trace methods, are introduced 1. The height field is horizontally sliced into evenly spaced cross-sections. For each cross-section, the Euclidean distance from each point to the nearest point where the slice cuts through terrain is computed off...
