Two-Stage Score Estimation for Group-Specific Diffusion Models

Generative modeling across related distributions raises a question: how can shared structure support accurate generation for a target distribution with limited observations? We develop a statistical framework for diffusion transfer that analyzes a shared pooled score together with a target-specific offset. Under Besov...

MIDI-REPA: Improving Text-to-Music Generation with Symbolic Representation Alignment

State-of-the-art text-to-music models increasingly rely on scaling model capacity, data, and compute, while still learning musical structure directly from dense audio. Yet melody, rhythm, harmony, and structure can be represented compactly in symbolic form. We introduce MIDI-REPA, a representation-alignment framework t...

Cross-subject decoding of imagined speech from scalp EEG: a leakage-controlled evaluation on three public corpora

Objective. A decoder of imagined speech that works for a new user without calibration would make a non-invasive speech interface practical. We tested whether imagined-speech content recorded with scalp electroencephalography (EEG) transfers across people, and examined why accuracy within a single person remains low. Ap...

Ranked Right, Sized Wrong: Ensemble Spread Fails Silently at Streamflow Extremes

Deep learning models, particularly Long Short-Term Memory networks, are increasingly used for operational streamflow forecasting, with ensemble spread providing a signal of predictive uncertainty. As climate change increases the frequency of hydroclimatic extremes, these models will increasingly operate under flow cond...

Planning to Learn: Real-Time Robust Adaptive Control on the GPU with Guaranteed Future Learning

A-SLS, a learning-aware robust adaptive model predictive control (RAMPC) framework based on system-level synthesis that forecasts future parameter uncertainty and preserves correlations between process disturbances, parameter error, and estimate updates to construct tight, guaranteed reachable sets that account for fut...

Stochastic Gradient Descent: A Nonlinear Time Series Perspective

This paper investigates the statistical behavior of Stochastic Gradient Descent (SGD) with constant step size under the framework of iterated random functions. Compared to previous studies establishing the convergence of SGD in probability measure, e.g., Wasserstein distance, our approach directly provides the converge...

Flexible Doubly Robust Proximal Causal Inference for Censored Outcomes

Estimating causal effects on right-censored time-to-event outcomes is challenging under unmeasured confounding. Proximal causal inference addresses unmeasured confounding through proxy variables, but existing proximal survival methods rely largely on restrictive parametric bridge models. We introduce Proximal Survival...

Learning Warm Starts for the Simplex Method from Measured Solver Cost

Learned warm starts for the simplex method build starting bases using predictions of which variables will be basic at optimality. Prior work has shown that starting bases predicted by graph neural networks can sharply reduce iteration counts, but the time saved may fall well short of the iterations saved. On 25 classes...

Pixels to Tokens: Token Space Efficient Active Learning for Low-Budget Semantic Segmentation

While foundation models and vision transformers (ViTs) have redefined visual representations, current active learning (AL) strategies for these backbones largely operate at the patch or region level, where annotation requirements remain high due to extensive pixel labeling. Extending ViT-based AL to the pixel-level, lo...

Machine-learning-based neutrino-event generation constrained by experimental measurements

We present a generative surrogate for charged-current \(\nu_\mu\)-nucleus scattering that can be calibrated to measured differential cross sections without event-level experimental samples. Starting from a theoretical interaction model, we fine-tune the surrogate to a MicroBooNE measurement and show that this also impr...

SNOAR: Self-training with Noise filtering, Observation adding, and Remixing for Speech Denoising Without Clean References

Unsupervised speech denoising methods such as MixIT and noisy-target training can be trained directly on noisy recordings, avoiding the sim-to-real gap of synthetic training data, but remain well below supervised performance. Teacher--student self-training, as in RemixIT, narrows this gap by remixing a teacher's estima...

Time-partitioning Gaussian Process Mixture Model

The Time-partitioning Gaussian Process Mixture Model (TPGPMM), a Bayesian nonparametric framework for regime identification and nonstationary prediction that infers such regimes and their within-regime dependence from data, without Markovian assumptions is proposed.
