Parameter estimation and classification in binary logistic regression deteriorate severely when the number of minority class observations ($n_1$) is smaller than the feature dimension ($p$). Under…
Edited endpoint images make the target of an image-to-video transition explicit and can improve transition completion, but also preserve context in the source image's layout. Full-frame endpoint…
Egocentric video has emerged as one of the most scalable sources of data for learning generalizable manipulation priors. Yet, despite its growing use in pretraining robotic policies, it has been…
Relational pattern languages generalize Angluin's pattern languages by requiring the strings substituted for repeated occurrences of a variable to stand in a given relation, rather than to be…
Collecting naturalistic human manipulation demonstrations with accurate contact force and hand pose is essential for robot dexterous manipulation policy and foundational world model learning - yet no…
PhysicsNeMo-Mesh is the mesh module of the open-source PhysicsNeMo library. It provides mesh processing similar to PyVista, but on the GPU, in batches, and inside PyTorch's automatic differentiation.
Controlling continuum robots' shape to operate in confined, enclosed environments is challenging, since it cannot rely on external observation. Existing embedded shape sensing methods, although they…
Balatro, a 2024 roguelike deckbuilder, presents three difficulties that have historically derailed reinforcement learning methods: a 3,000-action state-dependent action space, horizons of several…
In variable-step operator learning, agreement at observed step sizes does not by itself determine predictions at other temporal resolutions. We propose an operator whose step-size dependence is…
Recent generation methods produce 3D assets with detailed geometry and rich textures. However, these assets are non-emissive: they reflect light but emit none.
What computational role does overparameterisation play during learning? Information-plane analyses suggest that neural networks can traverse representations substantially more complex than those…
Developing analog and hybrid systems requires substantial domain knowledge that is hard to articulate in a formal specification; without additional effort, this domain knowledge is also inaccessible…
Radio-frequency (RF) sensing enables robot ego-motion estimation in darkness, smoke, and fog, yet RF odometry remains challenging because multipath and moving reflectors make cross-frame matching…
Learning independence is fundamental to statistical inference and machine learning, yet learning independence between entire time series by a test remains challenging when only a single observation…
In procedural videogame level design, many existing techniques combine hand-authored level chunks. Some existing analysis techniques also rely on a higher-level graph structure which abstracts the…
Physics-informed machine learning (PIML) and hybrid modeling have attracted significant attention as approaches for combining physical knowledge with the flexibility of deep learning. In this work,…
We study episodic finite-horizon Bayesian bandits, or meta-bandits, with independent arms. Each episode draws fresh arm qualities from unknown recurring priors.
Training-time multi-agent system (MAS) design seeks to learn reusable orchestration policies, yet prevailing approaches remain largely one-shot: an Orchestrator generates a system but only observes…
Vision-language models (VLMs) increasingly process multiple views of the same scene, but it remains unclear whether they integrate these observations into a coherent scene-level representation.…
Reliable vocal-cord localization in emergency video laryngoscopy remains visually challenging due to rapid tissue deformation, specular highlights, and instrument occlusions. We propose Local Point…
Particle Gibbs samplers with backward sampling are widely used for sampling the smoothing distribution of state-space models, but, with few particles, the new trajectory often coincides with the…
Visual rule reasoning asks whether multimodal models can recover an abstract concept from a few examples. Existing studies either infer rules from visual examples but evaluate only classification or…
Recent advances in generative image editing enable complex transformations such as background replacement, object manipulation, and pose adjustment from natural language instructions. However,…
