arXiv:2607. 10410v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Reliable forecasting of several interrelated environmental variables - such as regional precipitation and temperature, or other correlated geophysical fields - across many locations calls for accurate predictions accompanied by trustworthy statements of their uncertainty.

The paper introduces a copula-based framework to relate Data‑Consistent Inversion (DCI) and its iterative variant (iDCI). By applying Sklar’s theorem, the authors factor the DCI update into marginal and dependence components, showing that any remaining discrepancy after iDCI convergence is fully captured by the copulas of the observed and predicted joint distributions. They prove that an exact copula transformation recovers the original DCI solution and provide convergence results for approximate transformations, supported by numerical examples illustrating adaptive refinement and progressive problem refinement.

arXiv:2607. 03487v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Mutual information (MI) estimation is a central problem in machine learning and statistics; however, existing benchmarks typically evaluate estimators on simplified, low-dimensional distributions, leaving their performance on complex, realistic data largely unexplored.

Vine copulas provide a flexible framework for modeling complex multivariate distributions through a hierarchical decomposition into bivariate pair-copulas. Fitting a D-vine requires selecting a copula family and parameter configuration for each pair-copula from a set of candidates encoding different dependence patterns.

The paper introduces Personalized Federated Hierarchical Gaussian Processes (pFedHGP), a method for probabilistic regression and classification on data distributed across heterogeneous clients. Each client’s latent function is split into a shared global component, a client‑specific deviation that shares the global kernel, and a flexible local residual. Using sparse inducing‑variable approximations and federated variational inference, raw data remain local while the server exchanges only low‑dimensional statistics, enabling full predictive distributions for uncertainty‑aware decisions. In experiments, pFedHGP achieves perfect fault classification in press tonnage monitoring with only 13.77% of labeled cycles and accurately recovers geographic zones in federated air‑quality modeling without centralizing station‑level time series.
