arXiv:2608. 15466v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Distributional changes can be invisible to means and covariances yet appear in skewness, asymmetric interactions, or other third-order structure.

arXiv:2603. 19703v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Estimating covariance matrices is fundamental to a wide range of statistical applications.

arXiv:2607. 05872v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Memory-efficient optimizers such as GaLore train large language models by projecting gradients onto a rank-r subspace recomputed every T steps, assuming this subspace is a slowly drifting object that can be tracked.

arXiv:2608. 08399v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The instance-wise $F_1$ measure is a central performance measure for multi-label classification.

arXiv:2606. 15679v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Stochastic trace estimation is a standard tool for approximating the trace of a large-scale matrix available only through matrix-vector products.

arXiv:2607. 24235v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Over the past 20 years, kernel discrepancies have been leveraged as a highly powerful tool for quantifying the disagreement of distributions, with numerous successful applications in two-sample, goodness-of-fit, and independence testing, among others.

arXiv:2607. 10618v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We consider the recovery of a pair of sparse vectors from a limited number of nonlinear observations of their superposition: $y_i=g(\inner{\ba_i}{\bPhi\bw^\ast+\bPsi\bz^\ast})+e_i$, $i=1,\dots,m$, with $m\ll n$, incoherent orthonormal bases $\bPhi,\bPsi$, a scalar link $g$, and noise $e_i$ that may be heavy-tailed or contaminated.

arXiv:2602. 20376v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We study the problem of maximizing a complex-valued quadratic form over the $K^{\text{th}}$ roots of unity.

arXiv:2606. 02232v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Learning a Markov transition model is not merely conditional density estimation: the learned object must be a valid transition kernel before it is iterated in downstream dynamics.

arXiv:2606. 19411v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Selecting a fixed-size subset that maximizes the determinant of a positive semidefinite kernel is the MAP problem for a size-constrained determinantal point process and the classical maximum-entropy sampling problem.
