In implicit neural representations (INRs), 3D signals are encoded directly in network weights, making stable weight-space operations essential. However, permutation symmetry causes independently…
Sparse Mixture-of-Experts (SMoE) models improve scalability by routing input tokens to only a subset of expert networks, but they often suffer from representation collapse, in which multiple experts…
An LLM multi-agent system (MAS) is only as good as the agents it chooses to trust: its accuracy and cost hinge on its topology, meaning which agents are included and how they communicate. A single…
Why large language models trained via log-loss minimization over massive and diverse datasets exhibit broad capabilities and generalizable skills is not yet fully understood. Grau-Moya et al.
As-built BIM reconstruction from point clouds demands semantic, volumetric, parametric, and editable building components, beyond 2D layouts or planar abstractions. Yet existing scan-to-BIM pipelines…
Agentic search depends on the interface through which a language-model agent accesses and explores a corpus. Existing interface designs are fixed by hand and applied unchanged to every corpus,…
Barycenter models, based on stochastic and deterministic optimal transport bridges between probability measures, have proven to be useful for supervised and unsupervised learning for (probability)…
Traditional robotic navigation systems separate mapping, planning, and low-level control through cascaded modules, introducing computational overhead and accumulated latency. End-to-end reinforcement…
The evidence, $\mathcal{Z} = p(x | \mathcal{M})$, of a data-generating model $\mathcal{M}$ is a powerful tool in Bayesian frameworks: it enables model inference, model misspecification tests, and…
Learning causal structure from data requires assumptions about mechanisms, noises, observation schemes, and interventions. Historically, causal discovery has relied primarily on conditional…
We study the inverse problem of recovering unknown parameters governing the dynamics and rewards of Mean Field Games (MFGs) from partial observations of population trajectories, made stochastic by…
The interpretability of artificial intelligence models has become a central concern, especially for black-box models such as multilayer perceptrons (MLPs). Kolmogorov-Arnold Geometry has recently…
We study the optimal design of a self-financing event, a problem that requires balancing the recruitment of costly, positive-value participants with revenue-generating agents who may impose negative…
In-context reinforcement learning (ICRL) exploits the impressive in-context learning ability of large language models to zero-shot generalize to new, unseen tasks at inference time without any…
RLVR improves language-model reasoning, but commonly relies on independent stochastic rollouts for exploration, which can repeatedly sample similar failed strategies. Prior work has seen success with…
While large-scale human motion capture datasets provide a rich source of demonstrations for humanoid robot learning, retargeting the diverse motions to different humanoid robots remains a nontrivial…
General-purpose multimodal models have shown promise as direct robot action policies, yet whether they grasp the physics underlying real-world interactions and can apply that understanding to guide…
Reach-avoid sets, defining the states from which a task can be completed while avoiding unsafe regions, are fundamental tools for deploying robots in environments subject to disturbances and…
A planner using a learned world model can improve its predicted outcome while choosing a worse action. We study when expected free energy (EFE) can help decide how much computation to spend on a plan.
Connected and Autonomous Vehicles (CAVs) face significant challenges in roundabout navigation due to dense traffic interactions and unpredictable agent behaviors, necessitating high levels of…
Spatial and spatiotemporal point process models are widely used to analyze event data across many scientific disciplines, but likelihood-based Bayesian inference is often computationally prohibitive…
Stochastic optimization with high-fidelity nonlinear models is often computationally prohibitive because each objective evaluation requires sampling-based uncertainty quantification inside an outer…
A new adaptive restart rule for Genetic Algorithms (GAs) is considered. The rule is based on the Schnabel Census method, originally developed for statistical estimation of a size of animal population.
In the best-arm identification problem, an algorithm adaptively selects arms to find the arm of the largest mean reward. Successive Rejects (SR) is a simple fixed-budget best-arm identification…
