Parallel gradient boosting for flexible estimation of conditional distributions

A modification of the gradient boosting algorithm, which is called parallel gradient boosting, designed to circumvent all limitations of classical implementations, is studied, which provides predictions of similar quality to state-of-the-art boosting libraries such as XGBoost, while being faster by several orders of ma...

Pathways of Visual Information Flow in Vision-Language Models

Across three visual tasks, it is shown that pathway selection is task-dependent, and that data distribution and prompt design can also modulate which pathway is used to solve the image-based query.

Giskard : Byzantine Robust and Private Aggregation for Large-Scale Decentralized Learning

Giskard is presented, a scalable protocol for private and Byzantine-robust decentralized aggregation that reduces per-party communication complexity by close to three orders of magnitude over the closest competitor while exhibiting comparable robustness under up to $n/4 Byzantine parties.

Measuring Pretraining Contamination in Public Medical Vision-Language Benchmarks

Medical vision-language models (VLMs) are evaluated on public benchmarks whose images and question-answer pairs have been freely available for years, yet reported accuracy assumes that these examples were not in the training data. We test this assumption for open VLMs on SLAKE-En, PathVQA, and VQA-RAD, and on a public...

SAHG: Sector-Anisotropic Hyperbolic Graph Model for Social Bot Detection

SAHG (Sector-Anisotropic Hyperbolic Graph) learns a direction-dependent curvature field $\gamma(u)$ that adapts geometric resolution across structural directions, and uses sector prototypes to convert angular concentration and alignment into classifier-readable features.

Evaluating Neural Probabilistic Forecasts of Sparse Earthquake Counts: What Survives a Careful Evaluation

We revisit a neural negative binomial model for weekly earthquake counts on a 3 x 3 degree grid over the Tian Shan and Pamir, and ask which of its conclusions survive a careful evaluation. At the completeness magnitude of 4.5, the 144-week test period holds 2448 cell-weeks; six cell-weeks, in five distinct weeks, have...

CoarseSoundNet: Building a reliable model for ecological soundscape analysis

This study presents a reproducible framework to build ML models for coarse soundscape classification and introduces CoarseSoundNet, a deep learning model trained to distinguish biophony, geophony, and anthropophony under realistic terrestrial PAM conditions.

Projecting Latent RL Actions: Towards Generalizable and Scalable Graph Combinatorial Optimization

This work introduces Projection agents, a GCO methodology built on the Wolpertinger framework and adapted to a shared GNN-based latent space for observations and actions, and releases LaGCO-RL, a Python library that automates latent action-space construction and supports existing RL-GCO solutions, promoting reproducibi...

Markovian Generation Chains in Large Language Models

This paper defines this iterative inference process as Markovian generation chains, where each step takes a specific prompt template and the previous output as input, without including any prior data.
