Today, I'm at Bundesarchiv in Koblenz for the Strategy & Planning meeting of our project "Wiedergutmachung". Our task in this project is to develop efficient information extraction from historical case files of the German Postwar recompensation process of nationalsocialist injustice.

Reinforced sequential Monte Carlo for amortised sampling
This paper proposes a synergy of amortised and particle-based methods for sampling from distributions defined by unnormalised density functions. We state a connection between sequential Monte Carlo (SMC) and neural sequential samplers trained by maximum-entropy reinforcement learning (MaxEnt RL), wherein learnt sampling policies and value functions define proposal kernels and twist functions. Exploiting this connection, we introduce an off-policy RL training procedure for the sampler that uses …

us_congress: US Congressional co-sponsorship (1973-2016)
Two temporal networks of bill co-sponsorship tendencies among US Congresspeople, from 1973 (93rd Congress) to 2016 (114th Congress). Edges are signed, indicating the presence of a significant tendency to co-sponsor, or tendency to not co-sponsor, bills. Two networks per year, one for each chamber (House, Senate). Each file contains the signed network for a chamber of congress (H = House, S = Senate) in one session (e.g. 93 = 93rd…

MPCitH-based Signatures from Restricted Decoding Problems
Threshold-Computation-in-the-Head (TCitH) and VOLE-in-the-Head (VOLEitH), two recent developments of the MPC-in-the-Head (MPCitH) paradigm, have significantly improved the performance of digital signature schemes in this framework. In this note, we embed the restricted decoding problem within these frameworks. We propose a structurally simple modeling that achieves competitive signature sizes. Specifically, by instantiating the restricted decoding problem with the same hardness assumption und…
