arXiv:2603.27189v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Conformal prediction provides rigorous distribution-free finite-sample guarantees for marginal coverage under the assumption of exchangeability, but may exhibit systematic undercoverage or overcoverage for specific subpopulations. Assessing conditional validity is challenging, as standard stratification methods suffer from the curse of dimensionality. We propose Conformal Prediction Assessment (CPA), a framework that reframes the evaluation of conditional coverage as a supervised learning task by training a reliability estimator that predicts instance-level coverage probabilities. Building on this […]

arXiv:2604.06204v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Personalization is essential for Large Language Model (LLM)-based agents to adapt to users’ preferences and improve response quality and task performance. However, most existing approaches infer personas from chat histories, which capture only self-disclosed information rather than users’ everyday behaviors in the physical world, limiting the ability to infer comprehensive user personas. In this work, we introduce SensorPersona, an LLM-empowered system that continuously infers stable user personas from multimodal longitudinal sensor streams unobtrusively […]

Machine unlearning aims to unlearn specified training data (e.g. sensitive or copyrighted material). A prominent approach is to fine-tune an existing model with an unlearning loss that retains overall utility. The space of suitable unlearning loss functions is vast, making the search for an optimal loss function daunting. Additionally, there might not even exist a universally optimal loss function: differences in the structure and overlap of the forget and retain data can cause a loss to work well […]

arXiv:2510.24187v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: We consider the adversarial linear bandits setting and present a unified algorithmic framework that bridges Follow-the-Regularized-Leader (FTRL) and Follow-the-Perturbed-Leader (FTPL) methods, extending the known connection between them from the full-information setting. Within this framework, we introduce self-concordant perturbations, a family of probability distributions that mirror the role of self-concordant barriers previously employed in the FTRL-based SCRiBLe algorithm. Using this idea, we design a novel FTPL-based algorithm that combines self-concordant regularization with efficient stochastic […]

Release: datasette-llm 0.1a7 Mechanism for configuring default options for specific models. Part of Datasette’s evolving support mechanism for plugins that use LLMs. It’s now possible to configure a model with default options, e.g. to say all enrichment operations should use a specific model with temperature set to 0.5.

Federated Learning (FL) enables collaborative model training across multiple clients without sharing their private data. However, data heterogeneity across clients leads to client drift, which degrades the overall generalization performance of the model. This effect is further compounded by overemphasis on poorly performing clients. To address this problem, we propose FedVG, a novel gradient-based federated aggregation framework that leverages a global validation set to guide the optimization process. Such a global validation set can be established using readily […]

arXiv:2603.25862v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Virtually every sector of society is experiencing a dramatic growth in the volume of unstructured textual data that is generated and published, from news and social media online interactions, through open access scholarly communications and observational data in the form of digital health records and online drug reviews. The volume and variety of data across all this range of domains has created both unprecedented opportunities and pressing challenges for extracting actionable knowledge for […]

arXiv:2603.16535v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Transformers owe much of their empirical success in natural language processing to the self-attention blocks. Recent perspectives interpret attention blocks as interacting particle systems, whose mean-field limits correspond to gradient flows of interaction energy functionals on probability density spaces equipped with Wasserstein-$2$-type metrics. We extend this viewpoint by introducing accelerated attention blocks derived from inertial Nesterov-type dynamics on density spaces. In our proposed architecture, tokens carry both spatial (feature) and velocity variables. The […]

arXiv:2604.13116v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Covert quantum communication is usually analyzed under idealized assumptions that channel parameters, such as transmissivity and background noise, are perfectly known and constant. In realistic optical links, including satellite, fiber, and free-space systems, these parameters vary because of environmental fluctuations, calibration noise, and estimation errors. We study covert quantum communication over compound quantum optical channels with bounded uncertainty in both transmissivity and thermal noise, and derive guarantees that hold for all admissible channel […]

arXiv:2602.22284v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Recent advancements in deep learning have actively addressed complex challenges within the Computer-Aided Design (CAD) domain.However, most existing approaches rely on task-specifi c models requiring structural modifi cations for new tasks, and they predominantly focus on point clouds or images rather than the industry-standard Boundary Representation (B-rep) format. To address these limitations, we propose BrepCoder, a unifi ed Multimodal Large Language Model (MLLM) that performs diverse CAD tasks from B-rep inputs. By leveraging […]
