Recent advances at the intersection of control theory, neuroscience, and machine learning have revealed novel mechanisms by which dynamical systems perform computation. These advances encompass a wide range of conceptual, mathematical, and computational ideas, with applications for model learning and training, memory retrieval, data-driven control, and optimization. This tutorial focuses on neuro-inspired approaches to computation that aim to improve scalability, robustness, and energy efficiency across such tasks, bridging the gap between artificial and biological systems. Particular emphasis is […]

arXiv:2604.04947v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: With the rapid proliferation of online sports journalism, extracting meaningful pre-game and post-game insights from articles is essential for enhancing user engagement and comprehension. In this paper, we address the task of automatically extracting such insights from articles published before and after matches. We curate a dataset of 7,900 news articles covering 800 matches across four major sports: Cricket, Soccer, Basketball, and Baseball. To ensure contextual relevance, we employ a two-step validation pipeline […]

The automation of analog integrated circuit (IC) design remains a longstanding challenge, primarily due to the intricate interdependencies among physical layout, parasitic effects, and circuit-level performance. These interactions impose complex constraints that are difficult to accurately capture and optimize using conventional design methodologies. Although recent advances in machine learning (ML) have shown promise in automating specific stages of the analog design flow, the development of holistic, end-to-end frameworks that integrate these stages and iteratively refine layouts using post-layout, […]

arXiv:2604.13082v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Grokking in transformers trained on algorithmic tasks is characterized by a long delay between training-set fit and abrupt generalization, but the source of that delay remains poorly understood. In encoder-decoder arithmetic models, we argue that this delay reflects limited access to already learned structure rather than failure to acquire that structure in the first place. We study one-step Collatz prediction and find that the encoder organizes parity and residue structure within the first […]

arXiv:2601.05279v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Policy Space Response Oracles (PSRO) combines game-theoretic equilibrium computation with learning and is effective in approximating Nash Equilibrium in zero-sum games. However, the computational cost of PSRO has become a significant limitation to its practical application. Our analysis shows that game simulation is the primary bottleneck in PSRO’s runtime. To address this issue, we conclude the concept of Simulation-Free PSRO and summarize existing methods that instantiate this concept. Additionally, we propose a novel […]

arXiv:2602.06069v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The escalating demand for high-fidelity, real-time inference in distributed edge-cloud environments necessitates aggressive model optimization to counteract severe latency and energy constraints. This paper introduces the Hybrid Quantization and Pruning (HQP) framework, a novel, integrated methodology designed to achieve synergistic model acceleration while adhering to strict quality guarantees. We detail a sensitivity-aware structural pruning algorithm that employs a dynamic weight sensitivity metric, derived from a highly efficient approximation of the Fisher Information Matrix […]
