This work extends the low-rank framework from activity to learning by deriving gradient-descent dynamics directly in a reduced overlap space, forming a closed-form, low-dimensional system of ODEs that governs learning in this space, exact for linear RNNs and asymptotically exact for nonlinear RNNs in the large-$N$ Gaus...
A new interpretable experiential learning model based on state history and global feedback is presented. It is capable of learning a behavioral model represented by a transition graph between sets of states, with transitions attributed with utility and evidence count. This model is expected to be suitable for solving r...
We present Mesh Field Theory (MeshFT) and its neural realization, MeshFT-Net: a structure-preserving framework for mesh-based continuum physics that cleanly separates the physics'topological structure from its metric structure. Imposing minimal physical principles (locality, permutation equivariance, orientation covari...
Time series forecasting is a fundamental task in temporal data analytics, and large language model (LLM)-based agents offer a promising paradigm through autonomous tool interaction and evidence-grounded reasoning. However, two fundamental challenges remain: how to acquire forecast-relevant evidence through adaptive too...

Parameter-Efficient Fine-Tuning (PEFT) has become the standard approach for adapting large language models (LLMs). However, despite reducing trainable parameter counts, many PEFT methods remain memory-bound by token-level activation intermediates that scale linearly with sequence length, limiting their practicality for...

WiFi Channel State Information (CSI) enables device-free human activity recognition, but multi-user methods typically assume a fixed set of known users and degrade on unseen individuals. We reformulate multi-user recognition as identity-agnostic activity counting, estimating how many users perform each activity without...

We establish a stability bound for the Kullback-Leibler (KL) divergence when its Gaussian reference distribution is perturbed. Existing relaxed triangle inequalities of KL divergence between Gaussian distributions require all three distributions to be Gaussian, which limits their use in applications such as out-of-dist...

Transformers are highly parallel but are limited to computations in the TC$^0$ complexity class, excluding tasks such as entity tracking and code execution that provably require greater expressive power. Motivated by this limitation, we revisit non-linear Recurrent Neural Networks (RNNs) for language modeling and intro...

We consider minimising a spectral risk objective, the expected cost plus a weighted conditional value-at-risk, when the distribution of the uncertain parameters depends on the decision and can only be sampled through a stochastic simulator under a fixed budget of draws. We propose adaptive conditional residual sampling...
Large language model (LLM) agents offer a promising data-driven approach to automating Site Reliability Engineering (SRE), yet their enterprise deployment is constrained by three challenges: restricted access to proprietary data, unsafe action execution under permission-governed environments, and the inability of close...
Recent agentic time series forecasting (TSF) approaches use large language models (LLMs) to autonomously orchestrate analytical and forecasting tools and reason about temporal patterns using the resulting evidence. However, many such approaches rely on powerful LLMs in training-free, prompt-driven workflows, leaving op...

An algorithm to fit Poisson NMF with the shifted-log link function by maximum likelihood, and an approximation that substantially reduces computation time for large, sparse datasets (computations scale with the number of non-zero entries in the data matrix).

A machine-learning approach called CheMeleon provides a practical way to develop new drugs or other molecules with much less detailed, expensive experimentation.
Research Manager Mike Walker reflects on a career spanning hacker culture, cybersecurity, and AI, sharing lessons about trust, teamwork, leadership, and why solving difficult problems requires curiosity, judgment, agility—and an understanding of the rules. The post Learn the rules: The hacker mindset appeared first on Microsoft Research.
