Soft Actor-Critic (SAC) and its variants dominate Multi-Task Reinforcement Learning (MTRL) due to their off-policy sample efficiency, while on-policy methods such as Proximal Policy Optimization (PPO) remain underexplored. We diagnose that PPO in MTRL suffers from a previously overlooked issue: critic-side gradient ill...

Efficient preconditioning plays an important role in large-scale first-order optimization. In this paper, we propose an adaptive accelerated optimistic dual averaging ($\text{A}^2$ODA) method for unconstrained convex optimization that adopts low-cost preconditioning based on $p$-norm geometry for $p\in[2,\infty]$. The...
Real-world time series exhibit complex dynamics across multiple temporal resolutions, yet effectively incorporating multi-scale information into generative modeling remains challenging without increasing generative complexity. We propose UniFlow, a unified framework that integrates multi-scale representation learning w...
Standard spatiotemporal graph convolutional networks need a fixed-size adjacency matrix, coupling model weights to a specific sensor count N; they cannot produce any output at a sensor absent from training. We present OmniST, a topology-invariant forecaster whose computation has zero structural dependency on the number...

Variable selection is an important task for interpreting potentially complex systems in fields such as biology, business, and sociology. The importance of variable selection has attracted considerable attention in statistics and machine learning. In this paper, we are mainly interested in model-agnostic variable select...
LLM agents often give conflicting answers to the same question, and many deployed agents are variants of one base model, so their errors are correlated. We study truth discovery among such agents: inferring the true answer and each agent's reliability without labels. Classical truth-discovery and crowdsourcing estimato...
A vision for a system called TimeLess, designed to reshape the software development process by enabling immediate action during meetings and allowing teams to focus on critical decision-making while AI agents execute development tasks based on the meeting discussions.

BackgroundThe prevalence of overweight and obesity is increasing in Bangladesh. It is higher among Bangladeshi women than among men. This study was conducted to assess a host of demographic and socioeconomic correlates of overweight and obesity, separately for the urban and rural women of Bangladesh.MethodsWe used data...

Purpose Overall health status indicators have improved significantly over the past three decades in Indonesia. However, the country’s maternal mortality ratio remains high with a stark inequality by region. Fewer studies have explored access inequity in maternal health care service over time using multiple inequality m...

Women’s autonomy is an important element of the economic and reproductive health developments in a country. The aim of this study was to find out the potential factors associated with women’s decision-making autonomy in Bangladesh. To fulfill this purpose, the cross-sectional data obtained from the Bangladesh Demograph...
