A defender anticipating an attacker needs a probability distribution over the attacker's next action from information available before that action occurs. Two structures complicate this: the attacker's behavioral regime persists and can switch within an episode, and each action combines an operation with state-dependen...

Discovering continuous symmetries directly from differential-equation data can reveal geometric structure for model reduction and scientific machine learning without symbolic determining equations or a closed-form representation of the governing system. We formulate intrinsic Lie point-symmetry discovery as an operator...

Molecular representations such as fingerprints and learned embeddings play a central role in cheminformatics and small-molecule machine learning. They serve as the primary input for a diverse array of tasks, including clustering, dataset splitting, and virtual screening, yet their evaluation is often limited to downstr...

Low-rank adaptation (LoRA) is commonly used in both supervised fine-tuning (SFT) and reinforcement learning (RL), often under similar optimizer settings. Yet, how the different dynamics of the two stages manifest in the low-rank increment that LoRA optimizes remains unclear. Tracking the singular spectrum and subspaces...

Uncertainty quantification is crucial in scientific machine learning, where models inform safety-critical tasks such as flood forecasting, financial risk management, and thermal control in machines. Conformal prediction provides distribution-free coverage guarantees, but in time-dependent settings common to physics and...
Paired multi-omic cancer cohorts are costly to assemble and difficult to share, motivating synthetic cohorts as a complementary resource. As generative model development accelerates, we shift the focus from proposing yet another architecture to defining evaluation criteria that determine whether synthetic data preserve...

Different optimizers impose different geometries on parameter updates. Adaptive methods such as Adam and AdamW use coordinate-wise updates, while matrix-aware optimizers such as Muon utilize weight-matrix structure through orthogonalized updates. For Graph Neural Networks (GNNs), however, the effective geometry of its...

Linear attention compresses context into a fixed-size key-value state for linear-time training and constant-memory inference. Gated delta-rule models decay this state and erase its prediction for an incoming key before writing a new value; Gated DeltaNet-2 (GDN-2) generalizes this with channel-wise decay and decoupled,...

Quantization reduces the memory and bandwidth demands of large language model (LLM) inference but can degrade accuracy; offloading higher-precision data can instead stall generation. We introduce StrataFlux, a framework that challenges this tradeoff by recovering accuracy lost to low-bit weight and key-value (KV) cache...

In general-sum games, self-interested learners can reach outcomes that are poor for everyone, which has motivated methods that shape the opponent's learning. Methods like Learning with Opponent-Learning Awareness (LOLA), which differentiates through the opponent's learning process, and Model-Free Opponent Shaping (M-FO...

Models of collective motion usually reduce social interactions to pairwise forces, despite empirical evidence for many-body effects. We introduce the directional atomic cluster expansion (dACE), which adapts the atomic cluster expansion (ACE) of interatomic potentials to self-propelled agents. dACE provides a systemati...
Online Convex Optimization with memory and time-varying constraints (COCO-M) is a recently-introduced framework that captures the dynamics of stateful online learning and non-stochastic control with budget constraints. Despite its expressive power, COCO-M remains largely understudied. In this work, we tackle this probl...
