arXiv:2602.21366v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Ensuring accurate and stable state estimation is a challenging task crucial to safety-critical domains such as high-speed autonomous racing, where measurement uncertainty must be both adaptive to the environment and temporally smooth for control. In this work, we develop a learning-based framework, LACE, capable of directly modeling the temporal dynamics of GNSS measurement covariance. We model the covariance evolution as an exponentially stable dynamical system where a deep neural network (DNN) learns to […]

Quantum sensors offer significant advantages over classical devices in spatial resolution and sensitivity, enabling transformative applications across materials science, healthcare, and beyond. Their practical performance, however, is often constrained by unmodelled effects, including noise, imperfect state preparation, and non-ideal control fields. In this work, we report the first experimental implementation of a graybox modelling strategy for a solid-state open quantum system. The graybox framework integrates a physics-based system model with a data-driven description of experimental imperfections, achieving higher […]

Many large-scale platforms and networked control systems have a centralized decision maker interacting with a massive population of agents under strict observability constraints. Motivated by such applications, we study a cooperative Markov game with a global agent and $n$ homogeneous local agents in a communication-constrained regime, where the global agent only observes a subset of $k$ local agent states per time step. We propose an alternating learning framework $(texttt{ALTERNATING-MARL})$, where the global agent performs subsampled mean-field $Q$-learning against […]

The empirical success of deep learning is often attributed to deep networks’ ability to exploit hierarchical structure in data, constructing increasingly complex features across layers. Yet despite substantial progress in deep learning theory, most optimization results sill focus on networks with only two or three layers, leaving the theoretical understanding of hierarchical learning in genuinely deep models limited. This leads to a natural question: can we prove that deep networks, trained by gradient-based methods, can efficiently exploit hierarchical […]

Transformer models have achieved remarkable empirical successes, largely due to their in-context learning capabilities. Inspired by this, we explore training an autoregressive transformer for in-context reinforcement learning (ICRL). In this setting, we initially train a transformer on an offline dataset consisting of trajectories collected from various RL tasks, and then fix and use this transformer to create an action policy for new RL tasks. Notably, we consider the setting where the offline dataset contains trajectories sampled from suboptimal […]

Given two symmetric positive-definite matrices $A, B in mathbb{R}^{n times n}$, we study the spectral properties of the interpolation $A^{1-x} B^x$ for $0 leq x leq 1$. The presence of `common structures’ in $A$ and $B$, eigenvectors pointing in a similar direction, can be investigated using this interpolation perspective. Generically, exact log-linearity of the operator norm $|A^{1-x} B^x|$ is equivalent to the existence of a shared eigenvector in the original matrices; stability bounds show that approximate log-linearity forces […]

arXiv:2604.02504v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Electric utilities must make massive capital investments in the coming years to respond to explosive growth in demand, aging assets and rising threats from extreme weather. Utilities today already have rigorous frameworks for capital planning, and there are opportunities to extend this capability to solve multi-objective optimization problems in the face of uncertainty. This work presents a four-part framework that 1) incorporates extreme weather as a source of uncertainty, 2) leverages a digital […]
