arXiv:2605. 09160v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Learned representations are often invariant to rotational transformations, leaving individual dimensions non-identifiable and interchangeable.
arXiv:2601. 19179v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Autoencoders have long been considered a nonlinear extension of Principal Component Analysis (PCA).
arXiv:2605. 29987v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Although multi-scales representation learning enables elastic-dimension embeddings, nested subspaces often suffer from dimensional redundancy and spectral collapse.
arXiv:2606. 15092v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Activation steering has emerged as a key methodology for controlling the behavior of large language models (LLMs).
arXiv:2606. 02172v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Learning discriminative visual representations from distributed, heterogeneous data is a fundamental challenge in Federated Learning (FL).
arXiv:2608. 10016v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Heterogeneous federated systems require agents to learn and exchange informative representations despite differences in data distributions, sensing modalities, model architectures, latent dimensionalities, and local learning objectives.
arXiv:2207. 03116v4 Announce Type: replace Abstract: We introduce a general method for learning representations that are equivariant to symmetries of data.
Recent work on LeWorldModel (LeWM) has shown that the Sketched Isotropic Gaussian Regularizer (SIGReg) enables stable end-to-end world-model learning from pixels by regularizing the latent marginal distribution toward an isotropic Gaussian, thereby preventing representation collapse. While effective and elegant in single-task settings, this recipe does not extend reliably to multi-task training, leading to substantially worse downstream behavior-cloning performance.
Scaled dot product attention conflates directional alignment and vector magnitude, limiting its effectiveness as a similarity metric in Transformer models. We introduce L1 augmented attention, a simple and computationally parallelizable modification that subtracts a learned, head specific L1 distance between queries and keys from the dot product score.

arXiv:2605. 07914v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Sharpness-aware and gradient-alignment methods have been shown to improve generalization, however each family of methods targets a single geometric property of the loss landscape, while ignoring the other.
arXiv:2606. 18627v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Model merging has emerged as a training-free alternative to multi-task learning, aiming to combine multiple task-specific fine-tuned models into a single multi-task model.
