We propose DeePM (Deep Portfolio Manager), a structured deep-learning macro portfolio manager trained end-to-end to maximize a robust, risk-adjusted utility. DeePM addresses three fundamental challenges in financial learning: (1) it resolves the asynchronous "ragged filtration" problem via a Directed Delay (Causal Sieve) mechanism that prioritizes causal impulse-response learning over information freshness; (2) it combats low signal-to-noise ratios via a Macroeconomic Graph Prior, regularizing cross-asset dependence according to economic first principles; and (3) it optimizes a distributionally robust objective […]

arXiv:2601.01813v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Spatio-temporal process models are often used for modeling dynamic physical and biological phenomena that evolve across space and time. These phenomena may exhibit environmental heterogeneity and complex interactions that are difficult to capture using traditional statistical process models such as Gaussian processes. This work proposes the use of Fourier neural operators (FNOs) for constructing statistical dynamical spatio-temporal models for forecasting. An FNO is a flexible mapping of functions that approximates the solution operator […]

arXiv:2602.10134v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) are pretrained on corpora containing trillions of tokens and, therefore, inevitably memorize sensitive information. Locate-then-edit methods, as a mainstream paradigm of model editing, offer a promising solution by modifying model parameters without retraining. However, in this work, we reveal a critical vulnerability of this paradigm: the parameter updates inadvertently serve as a side channel, enabling attackers to recover the edited data. We propose a two-stage reverse-engineering attack named textit{KSTER} […]

The vast collection of machine learning records available on the web presents a significant opportunity for meta-learning, where past experiments are leveraged to improve performance. Two crucial meta-learning tasks are pipeline performance estimation (PPE), which predicts pipeline performance on target datasets, and dataset performance-based similarity estimation (DPSE), which identifies datasets with similar performance patterns. Existing approaches primarily rely on dataset meta-features (e.g., number of instances, class entropy, etc.) to represent datasets numerically and approximate these meta-learning tasks. However, […]

arXiv:2502.02580v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: In mixture models, anisotropic noise within each cluster is widely present in real-world data. This work investigates both computationally efficient procedures and fundamental statistical limits for clustering in high-dimensional anisotropic mixtures. We propose a new clustering method, Covariance Projected Spectral Clustering (COPO), which adapts to a wide range of dependent noise structures. We first project the data onto a low-dimensional space via eigen-decomposition of a diagonal-deleted Gram matrix. Our central methodological idea is […]

arXiv:2603.16975v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI) rapidly transforms software engineering, yet existing research remains fragmented across individual tasks in the Software Development Lifecycle. This study integrates a systematic literature review with a survey of 65 software developers. The results show that GenAI exerts its highest impact in design, implementation, testing, and documentation, where over 70 % of developers report at least halving the time for boilerplate and documentation tasks. 79 % of survey respondents use […]

arXiv:2602.16814v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The expansion of AI toward the edge increasingly exposes the cost and fragility of cen- tralised intelligence. Data transmission, latency, energy consumption, and dependence on large data centres create bottlenecks that scale poorly across heterogeneous, mobile, and resource-constrained environments. In this paper, we introduce Node Learning, a decen- tralised learning paradigm in which intelligence resides at individual edge nodes and expands through selective peer interaction. Nodes learn continuously from local data, maintain their […]

Questions for developers: “What’s the one area you’re afraid to touch?” “When’s the last time you deployed on a Friday?” “What broke in production in the last 90 days that wasn’t caught by tests?” Questions for the CTO/EM: “What feature has been blocked for over a year?” “Do you have real-time error visibility right now?” “What was the last feature that took significantly longer than estimated?” Questions for business stakeholders: “Are there features that got quietly turned off […]
