DINO (self-DIstillation with NO labels) has become a stan- dard for self-supervised pre-training, producing features that generalise across datasets and downstream tasks. In medical imaging it has…
Vegetation plays a central role in cities, serving functional roles such as balancing shade and sky exposure, shaping the microclimate, carbon sequestration, and providing acoustic screening.…
Learning mechanism behaviour requires a representation of how connected parts jointly constrain motion. We study whether exposing reusable constraint subassemblies improves prediction from limited…
This study explores the role of hyperparameter optimization (HPO) in enhancing the detection of Atrial Fibrillation (AF) using both machine learning and deep learning models. We evaluated a range of…
We present deterministic polynomial-space algorithms that solve Max 2-SAT on $n$ variables exactly in time $\Ostar(2^{(1-γ)n})$, for a fixed $γ>0$, on several classes of instances whose clause…
Privacy accounting bounds the cumulative privacy cost of Differentially Private Stochastic Gradient Descent but does not determine how to allocate a fixed budget across iterations. We formulate the…
Diffusion transformers (DiTs) have become the dominant architecture for high-fidelity image synthesis, yet they suffer from slow training convergence and high computational cost. Two recent lines of…
Recent advances in gigapixel-level imaging have brought High-Resolution Wide shots to the forefront of research. However, these images present significant challenges: extreme sparsity of foreground,…

Novel view synthesis (NVS) in degraded scenes aims to reconstruct 3D scenes from multi-view observations affected by various degradations, and to generate clear and photorealistic images at unseen…
Linear attention stores historical information in a recurrent state of fixed size, providing a compact memory representation for long-context inference. Reducing state precision further lowers…
As language models (LMs) have improved, an increasingly common means of evaluating their linguistic competence is through explicit prompting (e.g., "Which sentence is more acceptable?"). Prior work…
Clients observing different parts of a prediction task may learn locally equivalent models with incompatible behavior outside their observed support. We study whether redundant models permit local…
Learning continuous-time dynamical systems from data is an active area of research. The Koopman formalism is often used here, because it is a flexible approach that is informative about the system's…
Targeted protein degradation (TPD) represents a fundamental shift in drug discovery, moving beyond traditional target inhibition toward the event-driven removal of disease-causing proteins. A…
Distribution Matching Distillation (DMD) distills multi-step diffusion models into few-step generators by minimizing reverse KL divergence. Despite its strong performance, DMD guides samples by local…
In the context of multi-stage trajectory planning for robotic percutaneous liver interventions, identifying a kinematically feasible entry point remains a critical computational bottleneck. Existing…
We study post-training for dynamically routed mixture-of-experts (MoE) models, focusing on integrating independently optimized specialists while keeping consolidation efficient. Our approach combines…
Prompt-tuning has emerged as a parameter-efficient technique for adapting large-scale vision-language models (VLMs) to downstream tasks while keeping the pre-trained weights frozen. However,…
Probabilistic meshless methods solve partial differential equations (PDEs) by placing a Gaussian process prior on the solution and conditioning it on the PDE at a finite set of collocation nodes. The…
Large Language Models (LLMs) rely on Multi-Head Attention (MHA) for sequence modeling, but scaling to long contexts is constrained by the quadratic cost of attention, motivating sub-quadratic…
KV cache quantization is well studied for autoregressive language models, where cached prefix states are exact under causal attention and quantization is mainly a cache reconstruction problem.…
Unlike autoregressive large language models (AR-LLMs), diffusion LLMs (dLLMs) generate text by iteratively denoising many tokens in parallel, offering a promising path to efficient inference.…
LiDAR-based 3D perception underpins autonomous driving and robotics, yet deploying these models safely requires stress-testing them against adversarial inputs before real-world use. Although…
