Optimistic Hedge in General-Sum Games: Fundamental Limits and Regret Bounds via Temporal Approximation

Optimistic Hedge, a multiplicative weight update with one step of extrapolation, is one of the most natural regret-minimizing dynamics for games, and characterizing its regret has been a longstanding open question. Daskalakis, Fishelson and Golowich proved that if all $m$ players in a finite general-sum game follow Opt...

Stochastic Dynamics of Generative AI: From Autoregressive Models to Interacting LLM Networks and Neural SDEs

This paper develops a stochastic dynamical-systems perspective on three classes of generative AI models. First, we formulate large language models (LLMs) as high-dimensional nonlinear autoregressive models with attention-based dependencies. This formulation connects pretraining by conditional maximum likelihood to sequ...

LowRAM: Low-Rank Keys and Amortised Values for Composable KV Cache Compression at Test-Time

Autoregressive decoding relies on the KV cache, whose memory footprint grows linearly with context length and caps batch size and throughput. Existing post-training methods exploit redundancy across tokens, layers, and feature dimensions, or lower numerical precision. We identify a complementary axis: within each atten...

Robust Stream Classification using Time Neutralising Decision Trees

Data Streams are characterised as a potentially infinite source of data subject to non-stationarity. This non-stationarity, also called Concept Drift, often results in deployed predictive models having to be perpetually retrained as the underlying data generating process of the stream changes over time. Drift Detectors...

Uncertainty calibration in Bayesian M/EEG source imaging

M/EEG source imaging requires accurate localization and reliable uncertainty estimates, yet posterior credible regions are rarely assessed for empirical calibration. We present a simulation-based framework for uncertainty quantification and calibration of empirical Bayesian inverse methods with closed-form conditional...

Octopus: One Brain, Many Branches for Latent-KV Multi-Agent Reinforcement Learning

Multi-agent LLM systems explore in parallel by spawning sub-agents with isolated context windows, whereas single-agent systems append every search and verification step into one growing trajectory. However, existing multi-agent frameworks duplicate prefix KV caches across branches, exchange findings by re-prefilling te...

SteelAgent: LLM-Orchestrated, Physics-Informed Steel Property Prediction with Audited Generalization and Calibrated Uncertainty

Steel property models can perform well on random test splits even when they extrapolate poorly to unfamiliar alloys. SteelAgent couples metallurgical descriptors and machine-learning models with a language-model interface for property prediction, uncertainty reporting and inverse design. We examine how the choice of he...

Sonar-MoE: In-Backward Expert Updates for Memory-Efficient Mixture-of-Experts Training

Most parameters of a Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) model belong to its experts, and standard training keeps every expert gradient in GPU memory until the optimizer step. This memory grows with the number and size of the experts, so it rises as MoE models scale. We introduce Sonar-MoE, which updates each expert tensor during...

Variable-aware representation, not relation typing, explains the performance of an event-graph model for ICU mortality prediction: temporal and external validation

Event-graph neural networks represent intensive care unit (ICU) records as typed entities linked by timestamped observations, and their gains are often attributed to relation-specific message passing. We tested which components matter once leakage is removed and validation is temporal and external. In 31,142 first ICU...

Invariant Discovery for Networked Systems

Invariants, the relations expected to hold among measured signals of a network, underpin applications from verification to traffic generation, telemetry imputation, and input validation. Yet, writing them by hand demands rare expertise in both formal logic and networking. Testing all possible combinations of telemetry...

The State-Prediction Separation Hypothesis

Transformers use the same forward computation stream to both predict the next token and store useful state for future token predictions. We formulate the state-prediction separation hypothesis: disentangling the two roles yields better language modeling performance. We design a Transformer variant that uses separate co...

Set-Valued Routing for Language-Model Agent Systems: A WildChat Benchmark and Cost-Aware Evaluation

Language-model agent systems must map natural-language requests to one or more specialized agents before planning or tool execution. This decision is often treated as top-1 selection, although compositional requests can require several capabilities and unnecessary dispatch raises cost. We formulate fixed-catalog routin...
