arXiv:2602. 19126v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: We propose a robust Bayesian formulation of random feature (RF) regression that accounts explicitly for prior and likelihood misspecification via Huber-style contamination sets.

arXiv:2606. 07289v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Model merging combines several independently fine-tuned experts into a single multi-task model without any training data, reducing the storage, serving, and decentralized-development costs of large foundation models.

arXiv:2606. 00494v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Post-Training Quantization (PTQ) and Low-Rank Adaptation (LoRA) constitute the standard pipeline for efficient Large Language Model (LLM) deployment.

arXiv:2606. 25169v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Sampling from an unnormalized target by reversing an Ornstein-Uhlenbeck diffusion requires the score of each noise-perturbed marginal.

arXiv:2606. 26975v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Empirical Bayes (EB) estimators can match the first-order asymptotic risk of maximum likelihood (ML) while behaving very differently at second order: recent excess mean squared error (XMSE) analysis shows that kernel-based EB estimation may be worse than ML when the kernel is poorly aligned with the true parameter.

arXiv:2606. 18734v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Accurate, site-specific channel information is crucial for optimizing next-generation wireless networks.

arXiv:2606. 16923v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Simulation-based inference (SBI) of latent parameters is often hindered by simulator misspecification, the mismatch between simulated and real-world observations caused by inherent modeling simplifications.

arXiv:2606. 17567v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: While sequential residual fitting is the bedrock of standard boosting frameworks, it inherently breeds learner redundancy by repeatedly revisiting correlated error components.

arXiv:2605. 03283v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We provide a unified theoretical analysis of Linear Discriminant Analysis with simultaneous multilabel scatter matrix formulations and Stiefel orthogonality constraints.

arXiv:2603. 00393v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Inverse problems constrained by partial differential equations are often ill-conditioned due to noisy, incomplete data or inherent non-uniqueness.

arXiv:2607. 21039v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Spectral methods are among the most widely used techniques for community detection, clustering, and graph learning.
