arXiv:2609. 18901v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: In physics-informed machine learning, a target function $u^*$ is learned from noisy value observations $y_i=u^*(x_i)+ \varepsilon_i$, together with differential information, given either by noisy observations $d_j=(Du^*)(z_j)+\xi_j$ or by a known physical constraint $Du^*=v$.
arXiv:2601. 18115v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: We study the problem of learning a single neuron under standard squared loss in the presence of arbitrary label noise and group-level distributional shifts, for a broad family of covariate distributions.
The paper presents a near-complete, nonasymptotic generalization theory for multilayer neural networks using path regularization, applicable to broad Lipschitz loss functions without requiring bounded loss or extreme network hyperparameters. It provides an explicit upper bound that addresses approximation rates in generalized Barron spaces and demonstrates the double descent phenomenon for ReLU networks. The authors claim near-minimax optimality for regression problems and plan to establish matching lower bounds in future work.
arXiv:2606. 04031v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Coupled gradient descent--where the update of one parameter block depends on another--underlies bilevel optimization, two-time-scale stochastic approximation, and adversarial training.
arXiv:2609. 03129v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Several classical machine-learning methods, such as KRRs and SVRs, are both computationally and analytically tractable since their estimators either admit closed-form expressions or are obtained by minimizing convex training objectives; neither feature is generally available for deep neural networks.
arXiv:2608. 13201v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We develop the statistical and algorithmic theory of inverse optimal transport (IOT) under the feature-parameterized cost C_theta(i,j) = -theta^T phi(i,j).
arXiv:2605. 08170v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Neural operators have emerged as a powerful tool for learning mappings between infinite-dimensional function spaces.
arXiv:2609. 07997v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We characterize the sharp structure-agnostic minimax risk for coefficient estimation in the partial linear model when the outcome and treatment nuisances are learned by two distinct black-box learners, which resolves the open problem in double machine learning posed by Gu (2025).

arXiv:2607. 02003v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Although neural networks are remarkably effective, their underlying optimization principles remain theoretically elusive, often characterized by non-convex landscapes and stochastic heuristics.
arXiv:2605. 18528v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: A growing lesson from neural network optimization is that optimizer design should respect how the model is parametrized.
