In this work, we address the more challenging yet realistic setting of few-shot experimental design, where only a few labeled data points of input designs and their corresponding values are available.

Our experimental results demonstrate that this approach significantly improves the training efficiency as compared to maximum likelihood training.

In this section, we provide proof for the disentanglement identifiability of the inferred exogenous variable. Our proof consists of three main components. Then we have ( f, T, λ) ( f, T, λ) . The conditional V AE, in this case, inherits all the properties of maximum likelihood estimation. The following proof is based on the reduction to absurdity.

Discovering causal relationship using multivariate functional data has received a significant amount of attention very recently. In this article, we introduce a functional linear structural equation model for causal structure learning when the underlying graph involving the multivariate functions may have cycles.

The causal revolution has stimulated interest in understanding complex relationships in various fields.

Clustered Federated Learning (CFL) improves performance under non-IID client heterogeneity by clustering clients and training one model per cluster, thereby balancing between a global model and fully personalized models. However, most CFL methods require the number of clusters K to be fixed a priori, which is impractical when the latent structure is unknown. We propose DPMM-CFL, a CFL algorithm that places a Dirichlet Process (DP) prior over the distribution of cluster parameters. This enables nonparametric Bayesian inference to jointly infer both the number of clusters and client assignments, while optimizing per-cluster federated objectives. This results in a method where, at each round, federated updates and cluster inferences are coupled, as presented in this paper. The algorithm is validated on benchmark datasets under Dirichlet and class-split non-IID partitions.
