arXiv:2608. 01268v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Detecting that a stream of high-dimensional embeddings has changed is usually framed as a choice of statistic.
arXiv:2609.15179v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The Gaussian kernel is a widely used similarity measure underlying kernel methods such as kernel PCA and spectral clustering, but computing Gaussian...
arXiv:2607. 16811v4 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Drift detectors that work tend not to explain themselves, and drift detectors that explain themselves tend to fail in high dimension.
arXiv:2507. 12843v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Are two distributions close to each other with statistical significance?
arXiv:2606. 01443v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: A central difficulty in training Joint-Embedding Predictive Architectures (JEPAs) is preventing representation collapse.
arXiv:2608. 13922v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Detecting distributional changes in high dimension is difficult when neither the pre-change nor post-change density is parametrically specified.
arXiv:2609. 02155v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The Johnson-Lindenstrauss (JL) lemma guarantees that a random projection of $n$ points to $m=O(\varepsilon^{-2}\log n)$ dimensions preserves pairwise squared distances within relative error $\varepsilon$ with high probability, and this dimension order is asymptotically optimal.
arXiv:2603. 15384v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We improve and extend persistence spheres, introduced in~\cite{pegoraro2025persistence}.
arXiv:2607. 24235v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Over the past 20 years, kernel discrepancies have been leveraged as a highly powerful tool for quantifying the disagreement of distributions, with numerous successful applications in two-sample, goodness-of-fit, and independence testing, among others.
This paper introduces the Sierpiński-Knopp (SK) Wasserstein distance, a fast metric between persistence diagrams. The SK-Wasserstein distance, denoted $d_{\mathrm{SK}}$, maps diagram points and their...
arXiv:2604. 24196v4 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: A drifting model is a one-step generator trained by moving each sample along a field of kernel-weighted attraction toward data samples and repulsion between model samples; training halts once this field vanishes.
arXiv:2607. 15645v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Motivated by the challenge of testing distributions over high-dimensional or continuous domains, we study distribution testing with respect to bounded classes of distinguishers.
arXiv:2606. 30705v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Deterministic few-step generation succeeds on continuous image latents but collapses to incoherent text on continuous text latents, and we show the cause is geometric rather than a training or scaling deficiency: a smooth, regularity-limited deterministic map cannot resolve a discrete branch choice before a sharp categorical readout, so few-step failure is governed by decoder sharpness, not transport accuracy.
