We study experimental results of best response dynamics (BRD) in randomly generated weighted action networked multiagent optimization problems where agent utility is the agent's marginal contribution…
Automatic speech recognition (ASR) systems often perform less accurately for speakers of regional dialects, but less is known about how users respond to these limitations and how regional voices…
Accurate forecasting of global total electron content (TEC) is important for space weather monitoring and the reliable operation of satellite communication and navigation systems. We propose a…
Autonomous research agents are increasingly used to automate large portions of scientific research, yet they are prone to research integrity violations (RIVs): behaviors that compromise the validity,…
As LLMs expand their language coverage, evaluating how well they understand and represent diverse cultures becomes increasingly important. However, many benchmarks remain English-centric, with…
Formula-Driven Supervised Learning (FDSL) enables vision pre-training without real images, but existing methods cast pre-training as classification on discretized labels, discarding continuity in the…
Semiparametric Bayesian networks (SPBNs) are flexible probabilistic graphical models for representing joint distributions of continuous variables through lower-dimensional conditional probability…
Structured sparse learning is a leading paradigm for high-dimensional data modeling, as it enables rigorous integration of domain-validated structural priors into the learning process. Among these…
Diffusion Language Models (DLMs) introduce unique quantization challenges due to their iterative denoising process. In this work, we reveal that quantization sensitivity is both taskand…
Computer-model calibration is usually undertaken in service of prediction, yet neither Bayesian Kennedy-O'Hagan (KOH) calibration nor amortized simulation-based inference is built to control the…
We prove a self-normalized Bernstein inequality for bounded functions of a regenerative process with independent, identically distributed marked cycles of finite mean length. The bound uses observed…
Adaptive experiments use bandit algorithms to favor interventions with higher expected rewards. However, decision-makers also require reliable inference on current treatment effects: differences…
As robots and intelligent systems increasingly interact with humans, they must anticipate long sequences of future actions from only brief observations. While purely neural models typically require…
We study high-dimensional integration on bounded convex domains. Given a non-negative integrand $r$, the goal is to estimate $Z=\int_{D}r(x)\,\mathrm dx$ on $D\subset\mathbb R^d$.
In-context imitation learning (ICIL) adapts robot policies through test-time demonstrations, but long multimodal trajectories constrain how many examples fit in context. We ask what a compressed…
Multi-step Web tasks often require several LLM agents to gather and combine evidence. The communication graph of a fixed workflow restricts which agents can read each other's outputs: evidence…
Self-supervised contrastive learning (SSCL) learns representations by contrasting augmented views of the same sample, but it can exhibit feature suppression, where dominant or easy-to-learn factors…
Multimodal large language models (MLLMs) can now process hour-long videos, making extended multi-turn dialogue over a single video a natural mode of use. Sustaining such a dialogue requires more than…
Reasoning vision-language-action (VLA) policies write a reasoning trace and then decode the action from it. A wrong trace yields a wrong action, and even a correct-looking trace can mislead the plan.
Noise synthesis is commonly approached through physical models of image formation or neural networks trained to generate noisy images. We explore a middle ground: an explicit statistical model fitted…
An uncertainty estimate is meaningful only if its semantics can be tied to observable predictive behavior. Normal-Inverse-Gamma (NIG) evidential regression provides a structured decomposition of…
Deep search agents extend language models by interleaving reasoning with external retrieval. However, effective search-agent training requires addressing two challenges beyond final-answer…
Self-evolving agent skills enable AI agents to accumulate and refine reusable procedural knowledge from interaction experience without updating model parameters. However, since such skills are…
