arXiv:2606. 11341v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Modular neural network pipelines suffer from error compounding: noise at any module boundary propagates and potentially amplifies through subsequent modules.
arXiv:2607. 13380v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Predictive Coding (PC) offers a biologically motivated alternative to backpropagation via local weight updates, yet routing error between layers still relies on an autograd Jacobian-transpose ($J^\top$) product - the last non-local operation in PC.
arXiv:2608.08322v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Adaptive loss-balancing schemes for physics-informed neural networks rest on a premise that every residual should be driven to zero. For leve...
arXiv:2605.06240v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Forward-Forward (FF) training lets each layer learn from a local goodness criterion. In cumulative-goodness variants, later layers can inheri...
arXiv:2606. 17816v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Understanding gradient descent dynamics is key to explaining the success of over-parameterized models, where implicit bias manifests through conservation laws in gradient flow.
arXiv:2606. 23942v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We present a large-scale empirical study isolating the contributions of the Derivative Regularization penalty (DREG).
arXiv:2505. 13196v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We introduce Velocity-Regularized Adam (VRAdam), a physics-inspired optimizer for training deep neural networks that draws on ideas from quartic terms for kinetic energy with its stabilizing effects on various system dynamics.
arXiv:2606. 02608v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We study a Marchenko--Pastur (MP) random-matrix approach to pruning deep neural networks with very small post-pruning fine-tuning budgets.
arXiv:2607. 20171v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: A second order finite volume scheme rests on two local quantities: a gradient reconstructed in each cell, and a limiter which scales it down where the reconstruction would overshoot.
arXiv:2608.24568v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Deep neural networks generalize well despite their highly nonconvex, overparameterized loss landscapes, a phenomenon often associated with the geomet...
arXiv:2608. 08322v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Physics-informed neural networks applied to the level-set formulation of interface advection commonly augment the residual and initial-condition losses with an eikonal regulariser, penalising the deviation of $\|\nabla\phi\|$ from unity.
FORGE is a forward‑only test‑time adaptation technique designed for integer‑only vision models running on microcontrollers. It restores batch‑normalization statistics after BN folding by re‑normalizing each convolution’s per‑channel output using only forward‑pass estimates, enabling adaptation on deployed, folded integer models. The method achieves accuracy gains comparable to gradient‑based TENT, requires adapting only a few layers, works with single‑sample streaming, and has been validated on an ESP32‑S3 with minimal energy and latency overhead.
arXiv:2607. 20201v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Additive models buy interpretability by forbidding feature interactions, a constraint that neural instantiations enforce architecturally.
