arXiv:2607. 12501v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: The Forward-Forward algorithm trains each layer locally, so that a scalar goodness - the sum of squared activations - is high on real inputs and low on contrastive ones.

arXiv:2606. 09705v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Scientific generative modeling often requires size transfer, where models trained on small systems are evaluated on larger ones.

arXiv:2606. 06179v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Score-based diffusion models are typically trained by minimizing the $L^2$ score matching error, and standard theoretical analyses rely on this quantity to bound the sampling discrepancy between the learned and target distributions.

arXiv:2607. 21721v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Learned generative priors are increasingly used for ill-posed Bayesian inverse problems, their posterior uncertainty treated as earned from data.

arXiv:2606. 06539v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Forward-Forward (FF) learning [Hinton, 2022] replaces backpropagation with strictly layer-local goodness updates.

arXiv:2606. 16214v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Modern deep learning models remain notoriously prone to overconfidence, limiting their reliability in high-stakes applications.

arXiv:2601. 22784v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We introduce a rank-statistic approximation of $f$-divergences that avoids explicit density-ratio estimation by working directly with the distribution of ranks.

A common heuristic used to explain the generalization of first-order gradient methods on non-convex neural networks is that "flat interpolators generalize well" (Hochreiter and Schmidhuber, 1994; Keskar et al. , 2017), where flatness can be measured by the trace of the Hessian of the empirical loss.
