arXiv:2607. 03839v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Sparse feature selection is critical for high-dimensional machine learning, yet traditional $\ell_1$-regularized methods are often brittle under observational noise and spurious correlations, leading to unstable feature supports and degraded generalization.

EXPOSE is a framework that applies Sparse Autoencoders to Vision Foundation Model embeddings in computational pathology, aiming to separate biological signals from domain‑specific noise. By training a sparse representation of VFM features and using a linear classifier to flag domain‑specific latent dimensions, the method masks these components before downstream relapse prediction, avoiding the need to retrain the backbone model. Experiments on a large prostate cancer dataset demonstrate that removing domain‑specific features improves cross‑domain performance and raises the Domain Robustness Index (DoRI).

arXiv:2306. 14851v5 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Given a high-dimensional covariate matrix and a response vector, ridge-regularized sparse linear regression selects a subset of features that explains the relationship between covariates and the response in an interpretable manner.

The paper introduces a training‑adaptive convolutional sparse coding (CSC) framework that learns the sparsity coefficient jointly with network parameters using an unfolded FISTA optimization. By treating the coefficient as a differentiable variable, the method balances information retention and compression through an information bottleneck perspective, promoting compact yet task‑relevant representations. A label‑free post‑training strategy further adjusts compression for corrupted inputs, yielding competitive accuracy on clean data and enhanced robustness to perturbations on CIFAR and ImageNet.
