A strong direct tree model may remain the best standalone photovoltaic forecaster, yet a weighted combination can reduce its residual errors. We examine whether complementary temporal predictors can…
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…
Joint-embedding predictive architectures (JEPAs) learn world models in latent space, enabling efficient planning but leaving their states opaque. We introduce Inside-JEPA, which places relational…
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…
Wearable inertial measurement unit (IMU) systems for construction worker human activity recognition (HAR) routinely report aggregate accuracies above 95 %, rarely under genuine subject-independent…
Automated manufacturing requires data-driven decisions under uncertainty and sparse observational records, and unplanned downtime is a dominant cost of getting them wrong. Prescriptive maintenance…
Chunking strategies for retrieval-augmented generation are almost always evaluated on a static snapshot, yet the documents underlying a knowledge base continue to change. Because chunks are embedded…
Accurate estimation of diffuse horizontal irradiance (DHI) is critical for optimising photovoltaic system performance and energy forecasting yet remains challenging in regions lacking comprehensive…
Recent advances in video generation have made synthetic videos increasingly realistic, placing greater demands on reliable AI-generated video detection. Existing artifact-based detectors typically…
We study episodic linear Markov decision processes with unknown transitions, adversarial losses, and bandit feedback. The state-of-the-art result for this setting (Liu et al., 2024) either achieves…
Deep neural networks often struggle to provide reliable confidence estimates, making post-hoc calibration essential for reliable decision-making. Existing post-hoc methods largely rely on score-based…
A digital twin (DT) for type 1 diabetes (T1D) can predict how an individual's blood glucose will respond to different insulin treatments without actually trying them. For each treatment, downstream…
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…
We study welfare maximization in a contract model with $m$ principals who privately value a public project's success and $n$ agents whose costly effort is unobservable. Contracts induce truthful…
Disseminating synthetic data in place of original ones is a promising way to enforce privacy while complying with open science principles, especially in the healthcare domain. To keep pace with 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…
Object detection models rely on large-scale annotated datasets that require substantial manual annotation effort. The labeling costs further increase when annotation uncertainty is captured through…
Deep neural networks deployed on smart glasses must adapt to changes in the distribution of incoming data while adhering to strict privacy and device constraints. We present No Frames, Just…
Automated optical inspection of precision components with tiny surface defects remains challenging when different regions of the same component exhibit different defect characteristics and,…
Practical image generation requires both human preference alignment and few-step efficiency, yet combining reinforcement learning (RL) with distillation is often multi-stage and may erode RL gains We…
