Fractional is Better: Learnable Derivative Orders in Neural Operator Learning

Neural operators learn mappings between function spaces, enabling fast surrogate solutions to partial differential equations. Despite remarkable architectural diversity, these methods often share a common input representation: raw coordinate-value pairs $(x, u(x))$. We ask whether inputs aligned with PDE differential s...

Beyond Expert Rankings: Contrast Calibration for Mixed-Precision MoE Quantization

Mixture-of-experts (MoE) language models activate only a few experts per token, yet all expert weights must be stored. Mixed-precision quantization reduces this storage cost by assigning higher bit-widths to sensitive experts and lower bit-widths to resilient ones, but expert rankings alone do not determine how strongl...

SpectrumQuant: Spectrum Alignment for LLM Quantization

Orthogonal transforms have emerged as an effective tool for low-bit quantization of large language models (LLMs), as they reshape activation distributions without changing the underlying model function. Existing approaches typically rely either on fixed data-agnostic transforms, such as Hadamard rotations, or on calibr...

From Plato to Aristotle: Toward a General Theory of Representation Hypotheses

The Platonic Representation Hypothesis (PRH) holds that increasingly capable models converge toward a common representation. However, recent studies have shown different views on aligning representations via their neighborhoods, spanning trees, and distances. We show that these views can differ because the alignment cr...

MAEM: Mitigating Recency Bias via a Replay-Free, Capacity-Controlled Dynamic Mixture of Experts for Class-Incremental Graph Learning

This work proposes MAEM, a replay-free, capacity-controlled dynamic mixture-of-experts framework for class-incremental graph learning that mitigates recency bias, outperforms strong continual graph learning baselines, and keeps model capacity bounded under strict replay-free learning.

Optimizing Sparse Boolean Rule Networks using Mixed Integer Linear Programming

We study the problem of learning accurate and cognitively simple binary classifiers that are directly interpretable as Boolean rules. We propose mixed integer linear programming (MILP) formulations for training sparse disjunctive normal form (DNF) networks, viewed as small networks with a conjunctive hidden layer and a...

A Large-Dimensional Analysis of Least-Squares Federated Learning via Generalized Total Variation Minimization

Federated learning over decentralized networks inherently trades off the suppression of local finite-sample noise through collaboration against the bias that collaboration introduces between heterogeneous nodes. We study this tension by performing a large-dimensional analysis of Generalized Total Variation Minimization...

Outperforming 1000 Euclidean Layers With Hyperbolic Goal-Conditioned RL

Scaling self-supervised contrastive reinforcement learning (CRL) to 1000-layer Euclidean neural networks has enabled state-of-the-art goal-reaching performance, yet wall-clock time scales linearly with depth. We find that changing the geometry achieves stronger performance with far shallower networks. This matters in c...

Neural Wasserstein Splines: Representation-Invariant Second-Order Priors for Trajectory Inference

Population dynamics are often observed only as unpaired snapshots, which leave the evolution between measurements underdetermined. Second-order regularization can constrain it, but a penalty on the accelerations of sampled particles is a prior on joint particle paths, and different particle representations of the same...

Efficient contextual partial monitoring with general function approximation

We study finite stochastic partial monitoring (PM) games with side information, a paradigm of sequential learning with partial feedback. On each round $t \in [T]$, both player and environment observe a context and player chooses an action and environment simultaneously chooses an outcome. The player neither observes th...

Asymptotically Exact Negative Guidance of Diffusion Models via Positive-Unlabeled Learning

Negative guidance of diffusion models generates samples that avoid an undesired condition, specified either by reference samples or by a conditional score alongside an unconditional model. Existing methods inject repulsive terms derived from local information at each sample, so the resulting sampler does not target an...

From Global to Tail Convergence: Dynamics of $\alpha$-Stable Score-Based Generative Models

A non-asymptotic convergence analysis for scale-preserving $\alpha$-stable generative dynamics, covering both compactly supported and power-law targets, identifies tail-index matching as a principled mechanism behind the ability of stable generative models to capture extreme events.
