arXiv:2510.25154v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Bayesian inference provides principled uncertainty quantification but is often limited by challenges of prior and likelihood elicitation. The martingale posterior (MGP) (Fong et al., 2023) offers an alternative by replacing these requirements with a predictive rule. Additionally MGP focuses inference on parameters defined through a loss function. This framework is especially resonant in the era of foundation transformers; practitioners increasingly leverage models like TabPFN for their state-of-the-art capabilities, yet often require epistemic uncertainty […]

arXiv:2601.06514v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Inference-time alignment for diffusion models aims to adapt a pre-trained reference diffusion model toward a target distribution without retraining the reference score network, thereby preserving the generative capacity of the reference model while enforcing desired properties at the inference time. A central mechanism for achieving such alignment is guidance, which modifies the sampling dynamics through an additional drift term. In this work, we introduce variationally stable Doob’s matching, a novel framework for provable […]

MLP is a heavily used backbone in modern deep learning (DL) architectures for supervised learning on tabular data, and AdamW is the go-to optimizer used to train tabular DL models. Unlike architecture design, however, the choice of optimizer for tabular DL has not been examined systematically, despite new optimizers showing promise in other domains. To fill this gap, we benchmark 15 optimizers on 17 tabular datasets for training MLP-based models in the standard supervised learning setting under a […]

Unlike traditional homogeneous routing problems, the Heterogeneous Fleet Vehicle Routing Problem (HFVRP) involves heterogeneous fixed costs, variable travel costs, and capacity constraints, rendering solution quality highly sensitive to vehicle selection. Furthermore, real-world logistics applications often impose additional complex constraints, markedly increasing computational complexity. However, most existing Deep Reinforcement Learning (DRL)-based methods are restricted to homogeneous scenarios, leading to suboptimal performance when applied to HFVRP and its complex variants. To bridge this gap, we investigate HFVRP under complex constraints […]

arXiv:2602.24207v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The use of algorithmic predictions in decision-making leads to a feedback loop where the models we deploy actively influence the data distributions we see, and later use to retrain on. This dynamic was formalized by Perdomo et al. 2020 in their work on performative prediction. Our main result is an unconditional reduction showing that any no-regret algorithm deployed in performative settings converges to a (mixed) performatively stable equilibrium: a solution in which models […]

We consider the problem of learning the optimal policy for Markov decision processes with safety constraints. We formulate the problem in a reach-avoid setup. Our goal is to design online reinforcement learning algorithms that ensure safety constraints with arbitrarily high probability during the learning phase. To this end, we first propose an algorithm based on the optimism in the face of uncertainty (OFU) principle. Based on the first algorithm, we propose our main algorithm, which utilizes entropy regularization. […]

arXiv:2603.05562v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We consider the problem of modifying a description logic concept in light of models represented as pointed interpretations. We call this setting model change, and distinguish three main kinds of changes: eviction, which consists of only removing models; reception, which incorporates models; and revision, which combines removal with incorporation of models in a single operation. We introduce a formal notion of revision and argue that it does not reduce to a simple combination […]

I recently submitted Nullmail to Proof of Usefulness, and it scored +76 – officially “in business”! Here’s why this project matters. What It Is Nullmail is a verifiable, open-source privacy tool with active development and organic traction. While early-stage (approx. 10,000 monthly inboxes), the project’s ‘privacy-first’ architecture is validated by its open GitHub repository and recent ‘battle-testing’ against domain flagging (Cloudflare). It effectively solves a specific problem (disposable email) without data collection, positioning it as a high-utility tool […]

arXiv:2603.00683v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: State-of-the-art speech-to-text models typically employ Transformer-based encoders that model token dependencies via self-attention mechanisms. However, the quadratic complexity of self-attention in both memory and computation imposes significant constraints on scalability. In this work, we propose a novel token-mixing mechanism, the Polynomial Mixer (PoM), as a drop-in replacement for multi-head self-attention. PoM computes a polynomial representation of the input with linear complexity with respect to the input sequence length. We integrate PoM into a […]

Accurate localization of the seizure onset zone (SOZ) from intracranial EEG (iEEG) is essential for epilepsy surgery but is challenged by complex spatiotemporal seizure dynamics. We propose SpaTeoGL, a spatiotemporal graph learning framework for interpretable seizure network analysis. SpaTeoGL jointly learns window-level spatial graphs capturing interactions among iEEG electrodes and a temporal graph linking time windows based on similarity of their spatial structure. The method is formulated within a smooth graph signal processing framework and solved via an […]
