TopicMerge: A Divide and Conquer Approach to Topic Modeling

Recent advancements in topic modeling have split into two main paths: efficient embedding-based methods that offer scalability but are often outperformed on standard clustering metrics, and Large Language Model (LLM) approaches that achieve state-of-the-art clustering performance but at the cost of prohibitive computat...

Multi-Sensitive Distributional Fairness: Joint Wasserstein Audits and Shapley Allocation

Fairness audits with several sensitive attributes are often performed one coordinate at a time. This can miss purely intersectional disparities: a score may be independent of each sensitive coordinate while depending on their joint profile. We study distributional demographic parity for a real-valued score using one-di...

From Detection To Anticipation: Continuous Onset Forecasting For Stuttered Speech

Automatic stuttering systems primarily detect dysfluencies after they have occurred, limiting their use for anticipatory intervention. We address this gap by formulating stuttering prediction as continuous causal time-to-event forecasting, where a model estimates the risk of an upcoming stuttering onset every 100 ms us...

Generalizing Identifiability Results in Causal Discovery from Complete Data to Missing Data Settings

While causal discovery methods have matured for complete data, such algorithms for handling missing values remain limited. We establish general sufficient conditions under which causal graphs remain identifiable (i.e., uniquely determined from the available data distribution) under various missingness categories, inclu...

Structure-aware Bayesian full waveform inversion via diffusion-regularized Stein variational gradient descent

Numerical experiments demonstrate that the diffusion-regularized ASVGD-FWI produces more geologically consistent mean models, suppresses nonphysical artifacts, and yields uncertainty estimates that are more concentrated around structurally complex and poorly constrained regions.

Into the Unknown: Benchmarking AI agents on open scientific research problems

Can AI agents carry out research on open scientific problems? We introduce Into the Unknown, a benchmark that provides an agent with a science paper along with a research direction to pursue and tasks it to write a follow-up paper. We work with scientists at US Department of Energy (DOE) national laboratories, who each...

Online Tokenization with Optimal Delay in Linear Time

Tokenization is an essential preprocessing step in almost all large language models (LLMs). One of the most popular frameworks is BPE tokenization, which consists of special token segmentation, pretokenization, and byte-pair encoding (BPE). However, existing algorithms are sequential, with each stage only processing co...

Student Copula Markov Networks

This paper extends the applicability of probabilistic graphical models to non Gaussian data. It establishes a characterization of the pairwise Markov property in undirected probabilistic graphical models in terms of copula densities. Building on this characterization, we derive a necessary condition for the pairwise Ma...

From Copying to Composition: How Language Models Develop In-Context Learning

In-context learning (ICL) allows language models to adapt their behavior from instructions and demonstrations in a prompt, but accuracy alone does not reveal how contextual information controls their predictions. We study the acquisition and trainability of ICL with a controlled diagnostic that separates copying a near...

Neural Supervised Clustering for Learning Individualized Treatment Rules with Many Treatments

Learning an individualized treatment rule (ITR) with many treatments requires estimating treatment-specific effects from limited observations per arm. Treatments with similar conditional responses can share information, but linear contrast models may miss nonlinear heterogeneity. We propose nonlinear supervised cluster...
