A Scalable Nonparametric Continuous-Time Survival Model through Numerical Quadrature

Flexible continuous-time survival modeling is critical for capturing complex time-varying hazard dynamics in high-dimensional data; however, training such models remains challenging due to the intractable integral required for likelihood estimation. We introduce QSurv, a scalable deep learning framework that enables nonparametric continuous-time modeling without relying on time discretization or restrictive distributional assumptions. We propose a training objective based on Gauss-Legendre numerical quadrature, which approximates the cumulative hazard with high-order accuracy while facilitating efficient end-to-end training via standard backpropagation. Furthermore, to effectively capture non-stationary hazard dynamics in complex architectures, we introduce time-conditioned low-rank adaptation, a mechanism that conditions general neural backbones on time by dynamically modulating weights via low-rank updates. We provide theoretical analysis establishing approximation error bounds for cumulative-hazard evaluation. Comprehensive experiments across synthetic benchmarks, large-scale real-world tabular datasets, and high-dimensional medical imaging tasks demonstrate that QSurv achieves competitive predictive performance with advantages in instantaneous hazard function estimation, enabling more interpretable characterization of time-varying risk patterns.

Deep learning-based denoising for fast time-resolved flame emission spectroscopy in high-pressure combustion environment

A deep learning strategy is developed for fast and accurate gas property measurements using flame emission spectroscopy (FES). Particularly, the short-gated fast FES is essential to resolve fast-evolving combustion behaviors. However, as the exposure time for capturing the flame emission spectrum gets shorter, the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) decreases, and characteristic spectral features indicating the gas properties become relatively weaker. Then, the property estimation based on the short-gated spectrum is difficult and inaccurate. Denoising convolutional neural networks (CNN) can enhance the SNR of the short-gated spectrum. A new CNN architecture including a reversible down- and up-sampling (DU) operator and a loss function based on proper orthogonal decomposition (POD) coefficients is proposed. For training and testing the CNN, flame chemiluminescence spectra were captured from a stable methane-air flat flame using a portable spectrometer (spectral range: 250 - 850 nm, resolution: 0.5 nm) with varied equivalence ratio (0.8 - 1.2), pressure (1 - 10 bar), and exposure time (0.05, 0.2, 0.4, and 2 s). The long exposure (2 s) spectra were used as the ground truth when training the denoising CNN. A kriging model with POD is trained by the long-gated spectra for calibration, and then the prediction of the gas properties taking the denoised short-gated spectrum as the input: The property prediction errors of pressure and equivalence ratio were remarkably lowered in spite of the low SNR attendant with reduced exposure.

Fair Generalized Linear Models with a Convex Penalty

Despite recent advances in algorithmic fairness, methodologies for achieving fairness with generalized linear models (GLMs) have yet to be explored in general, despite GLMs being widely used in practice. In this paper we introduce two fairness criteria for GLMs based on equalizing expected outcomes or log-likelihoods. We prove that for GLMs both criteria can be achieved via a convex penalty term based solely on the linear components of the GLM, thus permitting efficient optimization. We also derive theoretical properties for the resulting fair GLM estimator. To empirically demonstrate the efficacy of the proposed fair GLM, we compare it with other well-known fair prediction methods on an extensive set of benchmark datasets for binary classification and regression. In addition, we demonstrate that the fair GLM can generate fair predictions for a range of response variables, other than binary and continuous outcomes.

Joint Fairness Model with Applications to Risk Predictions for Under-represented Populations

In data collection for predictive modeling, under-representation of certain groups, based on gender, race/ethnicity, or age, may yield less-accurate predictions for these groups. Recently, this issue of fairness in predictions has attracted significant attention, as data-driven models are increasingly utilized to perform crucial decision-making tasks. Existing methods to achieve fairness in the machine learning literature typically build a single prediction model in a manner that encourages fair prediction performance for all groups. These approaches have two major limitations: i) fairness is often achieved by compromising accuracy for some groups; ii) the underlying relationship between dependent and independent variables may not be the same across groups. We propose a Joint Fairness Model (JFM) approach for logistic regression models for binary outcomes that estimates group-specific classifiers using a joint modeling objective function that incorporates fairness criteria for prediction. We introduce an Accelerated Smoothing Proximal Gradient Algorithm to solve the convex objective function, and present the key asymptotic properties of the JFM estimates. Through simulations, we demonstrate the efficacy of the JFM in achieving good prediction performance and across-group parity, in comparison with the single fairness model, group-separate model, and group-ignorant model, especially when the minority group's sample size is small. Finally, we demonstrate the utility of the JFM method in a real-world example to obtain fair risk predictions for under-represented older patients diagnosed with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19).
