arXiv:2603.26554v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Spectral optimizers such as Muon have recently shown strong empirical performance in large-scale language model training, but the source and extent of their advantage remain poorly understood. We study this question through the linear associative memory problem, a tractable model for factual recall in transformer-based models. In particular, we go beyond orthogonal embeddings and consider Gaussian inputs and outputs, which allows the number of stored associations to greatly exceed the embedding dimension. Our […]

arXiv:2603.26502v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: In recent years, there has been growing interest in causal machine learning estimators for quantifying subject-specific effects of a binary treatment on time-to-event outcomes. Estimation approaches have been proposed which attenuate the inherent regularisation bias in machine learning predictions, with each of these estimators addressing measured confounding, right censoring, and in some cases, left truncation. However, the existing approaches are found to exhibit suboptimal finite-sample performance, with none of the existing estimators fully […]

arXiv:2603.26478v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Motifs often recur in musical works in altered forms, preserving aspects of their identity while undergoing local variation. This paper investigates how such motivic transformations occur within their musical context in symbolic music. To support this analysis, we develop a probabilistic framework for modeling motivic transformations and apply it to Beethoven’s piano sonatas by integrating multiple datasets that provide melodic, rhythmic, harmonic, and motivic information within a unified analytical representation. Motif transformations are […]

arXiv:2603.26301v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Many causal discovery algorithms, including the celebrated FCI algorithm, output a Partial Ancestral Graph (PAG). PAGs serve as an abstract graphical representation of the underlying causal structure, modeled by directed acyclic graphs with latent and selection variables. This paper develops a characterization of the set of extended-type conditional independence relations that are invariant across all causal models represented by a PAG. This theory allows us to formulate a general measure-theoretic version of Pearl’s […]

arXiv:2603.26261v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Contrastive learning produces coherent semantic feature embeddings by encouraging positive samples to cluster closely while separating negative samples. However, existing contrastive learning methods lack principled guarantees on coverage within the semantic feature space. We extend conformal prediction to this setting by introducing minimum-volume covering sets equipped with learnable generalized multi-norm constraints. We propose a method that constructs conformal sets guaranteeing user-specified coverage of positive samples while maximizing negative sample exclusion. We establish theoretically […]

arXiv:2603.26097v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Efficiently aggregating spatial or temporal horizons to acquire compact representations has become a unifying principle in modern deep learning models, yet learning data-adaptive representations for long-horizon sequence data, especially continuous sequences like time series, remains an open challenge. While fixed-size patching has improved scalability and performance, discovering variable-sized, data-driven patches end-to-end often forces models to rely on soft discretization, specific backbones, or heuristic rules. In this work, we propose Reinforcement Patching (ReinPatch), the […]

arXiv:2603.25934v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: In this work, we investigate how to develop sharp concentration inequalities for sub-Weibull random variables, including sub-Gaussian and sub-exponential distributions. Although the random variables may not be sub-Guassian, the tail probability around the origin behaves as if they were sub-Gaussian, and the tail probability decays align with the Orlicz $Psi_alpha$-tail elsewhere. Specifically, for independent and identically distributed (i.i.d.) ${X_i}_{i=1}^n$ with finite Orlicz norm $|X|_{Psi_alpha}$, our theory unveils that there is an interesting phase […]

arXiv:2603.25755v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Machine learning models of chemical bioactivity are increasingly used for prioritizing a small number of compounds in virtual screening libraries for experimental follow-up. In these applications, assessing model accuracy by early hit enrichment such as Positive Predicted Value (PPV) calculated for top N hits (PPV@N) is more appropriate and actionable than traditional global metrics such as AUC. We present KANEL, an ensemble workflow that combines interpretable Kolmogorov-Arnold Networks (KANs) with XGBoost, random forest, […]

arXiv:2603.26349v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Accurate uncertainty quantification is crucial for making reliable decisions in various supervised learning scenarios, particularly when dealing with complex, multimodal data such as images and text. Current approaches often face notable limitations, including rigid assumptions and limited generalizability, constraining their effectiveness across diverse supervised learning tasks. To overcome these limitations, we introduce Generative Score Inference (GSI), a flexible inference framework capable of constructing statistically valid and informative prediction and confidence sets across a […]
