Roto-translated Local Coordinate Frames For Interacting Dynamical Systems

Modelling interactions is critical in learning complex dynamical systems, namely systems of interacting objects with highly non-linear and time-dependent behaviour. A large class of such systems can be formalized as $\textit{geometric graphs}$, $\textit{i.e.}$, graphs with nodes positioned in the Euclidean space given...

Sample complexity bounds for categorical Markov random fields via Discrete Diffusions

This work studies the score learning error from finite data and derive optimal sampling guarantees with explicit dependence on the vocabulary size, the interaction order of the MRF, and the sample size, and trains a single score network across uniform noise levels while leaving the sampling discretization to be chosen...

Wasserstein Gradient Flows and Forward-Only Diffusion Are Not Enough for Multimodal Sampling

There has been a proliferation of sampling algorithms based on Wasserstein gradient flows (WGF) and forward-only diffusion processes (FODP), often accompanied by theoretical guarantees of exponentially fast convergence to the target distribution. These guarantees are frequently interpreted as evidence that such methods...

Error-Corrected Inference-Time Scaling for Imperfect Diffusion Models

Inference-time scaling adapts pretrained diffusion models to new sampling tasks without additional training. Existing methods rely primarily on Monte Carlo sampling with more particles, yet are premised on the pretrained model being exact. In practice, data and training limitations make the model imperfect, and these m...

Generalized Engression Models

The proposed method builds upon engression, a scoring-rule-based deep generative model, and introduces a data-type-specific link function and a stochastic perturbation that smooths the loss, enabling gradient-based training even with discontinuous links.

Lower Bounds for Stochastic First-Order Algorithms with Variance Reduction in Nonconvex--Concave Minimax Optimization

We establish complexity lower bounds for stochastic first-order algorithms in nonconvex--concave minimax optimization, allowing algorithms to use variance reduction. Our main contribution is a lower bound for a zero-respecting algorithm class that permits variance reduction, extending beyond the algorithmic restriction...

The hidden advantage of mask resampling: a theory of masked autoencoders

Why can masked prediction learn useful representations that unmasked reconstruction misses? We study this question in a high-dimensional model of a masked autoencoder (MAE) trained on data with shared latent structure and heterogeneous noise. We prove that masked linear reconstruction can recover the latent feature at...

Zero Flux: Flow-Based Comparison of High-Dimensional Discrete Distributions

Comparing two high-dimensional discrete distributions has always been a challenging task due to the exponentially growing state space and complex changes in interactions. A recent work suggests comparing distributions through a vector field trained using flow matching between two continuous distributions. The resulting...

Tolerance-Based Fairness Auditing: Violation Certification and Sensitivity Screening

A unified tolerance-based fairness auditing framework for two complementary auditing objectives: violation certification, which prioritizes control of false violation declarations, and sensitivity screening, which prioritizes reducing missed violations is developed.

The Price of Correlated Tests: How Strict Should a Model Release Gate Be?

This work treats the release gate as a design problem: choose how many tests a model must pass so that cleared models meet a stated reliability target, while keeping as many good models as possible, and gives a validation procedure that certifies a gate from labelled data even when the gate is chosen from a fixed short...

Block Optimism for Nonstationary Bandits with Latent Linear Dynamics

This work proves a regret bound of order $\tilde{O}(\sqrt T)$, significantly improving over the previous $\tilde{O}(T^{2/3})$ guarantee, and is the first $\tilde{O}(\sqrt T)$ regret guarantee for latent linear-dynamics bandits with bilinear reward observations and an open-loop action-sequence benchmark.

Inference for stochastic differential equations driven by weighted sub-fractional Brownian motion using neural networks and the Euler approximation

We consider the estimation of drift, diffusion, and noise covariance from discrete observations of stochastic differential equations driven by Gaussian processes. For a fixed observation horizon $T>0$ and a known initial state $x_0\in\mathbb R$, we study \begin{equation*} dX_t=a(X_t)\,dt+\sigma(X_t)\,dZ_t^{\beta,f},...
