CyberHull: Deterministic Malicious URL Isolation via Convex Hull

The emergence of increasingly sophisticated and evasion-resistant phishing attack strategies represents a significant threat to modern cybersecurity, particularly in cyber-physical systems and internet-based networks. Traditional probabilistic methods and certain machine learning approaches often struggle to detect nov...

Strictly Replicable Realizable Learning: Unknown Marginals, Finite-Class Interpolation, and the Cost of Shared Randomness

Strict replicability requires two independent training samples, processed with the same random seed, to produce exactly the same hypothesis. We study realizable Boolean learning under unknown and known instance marginals. For unknown marginals, we obtain the worst-case sample complexity $\Theta(((\log M)^2/\rho^2+\log(...

Residual-Based Adaptive Refinement in Hybrid Variational-Collocation PINNs for Singular Elliptic PDEs with Mixed Dirichlet-Neumann Boundary Conditions

Solutions of second-order elliptic PDE problems on nonconvex or cracked domains with mixed Dirichlet-Neumann conditions typically lie outside $H^2(\Omega)$. Near re-entrant corners, crack tips and points where the boundary condition changes type, the gradient grows like $r^{\lambda-1}$ with $\lambda<1$. We study residu...

Learning Bidirectional Causal Interactions with Heteroscedastic Neural Networks

Estimating contemporaneous bidirectional interactions from observational data is difficult because each outcome is endogenous to the other, while flexible regressions may capture only reduced-form dependence. This paper proposes SEM-DNN, a heteroscedastic neural simultaneous-equation estimator that learns reciprocal st...

Flow-ERD: Agent-type Aware Flow Matching With Entropy-Regularized Distillation for Diverse Traffic Simulation

Realistic and diverse traffic simulation is essential to autonomous driving development. Yet prevailing benchmarks predominantly reward realism, and recent methods have optimized accordingly, leaving diversity underexplored. We introduce Flow-ERD, a multi-agent simulator that pursues realism and diversity jointly. Its...

CodeJeNN: A simple C++ neural network generator for physics applications

Machine learning has shown promise for physics applications, but integrating Python-based libraries into high-performance C++ solvers can create performance bottlenecks. We present CodeJeNN, which addresses this gap by auto-generating self-contained C++ code from trained Keras models for inference. This eliminates exte...

Convergence of Large-Stepsize SGD for the Cross-entropy Loss via Stochastic Lyapunov Stability

Modern deep learning has been shown to operate using learning rates far larger than those justified by classical optimization theory. Most prior analyses of this phenomenon focus on deterministic gradient descent, leaving the stochastic setting largely unexplored. In this work, we provide sharp convergence guarantees f...

Approximating velocity fields with planted point attractors via Neural-ODE for classification purposes

In this work, Neural ODEs equipped with a curated collection of equilibrium points have been successfully employed for classification tasks. The planted fixed points serve as indicators for the target classes, while the velocity field, leveraging the universal approximation capabilities of the architecture, shapes the...

Instance-dependent Stochastic Lipschitz bandit

We study the Lipschitz bandit problem, where a learner sequentially maximizes an unknown Lipschitz function $f$ over a domain $\mathcal{X} \subset [0,1]^d$ using noisy pointwise evaluations. Existing regret bounds are either worst-case, scaling as $\tilde{\Theta} \left ( T^{d+1/d+2}\right )$, or adaptive via the zoomin...

Causal Representation Learning for Generalisable Recommendation

Predictive models trained on observational data often fail to generalise when deployed, especially when the training data is a product of the system being optimised. Recommender systems are a canonical example: they are trained on interaction logs confounded by the deployed policy, past user behaviour, and platform fil...

Temporal Fair Division in Multi-Agent Systems: From Precise Alternation Metrics to Scalable Coordination Proxies

Many multi-agent games and simulated environments involve several independent, often learning, agents repeatedly competing for a shared resource. Conventional fairness measures assess whether resources are shared equally overall, but cannot distinguish orderly turn-taking from irregular access patterns that produce lon...

On the Complexity of Best-Arm Identification in Non-Stationary Linear Bandits

We study the fixed-budget best-arm identification (BAI) problem in non-stationary linear bandits. Concretely, given a fixed time budget $T\in \mathbb{N}$, finite arm set $\mathcal{X} \subset \mathbb{R}^d$, and a potentially adversarial sequence of unknown parameters $\lbrace \theta_t\rbrace_{t=1}^{T}$ (hence non-statio...
