arXiv:2608. 13628v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Random vector functional link (RVFL) networks are lightweight and fast neural models that offer efficient training and strong generalization through randomized hidden-layer weights and direct input-output connections.
arXiv:2608. 16965v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The dominance of majority classes in real-world datasets poses a fundamental challenge to randomized neural networks, often biasing decision boundaries and overlooking critical minority samples.
arXiv:2607. 23149v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Random Vector Functional Link (RVFL) networks provide an efficient randomized learning framework for classification.
arXiv:2606. 01746v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Modern neural networks are highly susceptible to adversarial perturbations.
arXiv:2607. 22081v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Multiclass classification is a fundamental problem across a wide range of domains.
arXiv:2606. 16050v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Robust deep learning under heavy-tailed and impulsive noise remains challenging because conventional losses such as mean squared error (MSE) exhibit unbounded sensitivity to outliers.
arXiv:2607. 21773v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: In this paper, we propose and study a robust variant of the smart predict-then-optimize approach that accounts for prediction shifts due to disturbance in the covariate feature space.
arXiv:2607. 12094v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Reliable detection of out-of-distribution (OOD) samples is crucial for the safe deployment of machine learning models.
arXiv:2607. 09371v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Flexible machine-learning methods can be sensitive to hidden confounding: they may learn associations induced by unobserved confounders rather than stable signals.
arXiv:2506. 01486v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Data imbalance persists as a pervasive challenge in regression tasks, introducing bias in model performance and undermining predictive reliability.
arXiv:2605. 29669v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Recent work in random matrix theory (RMT) has developed the notion of deterministic equivalents: typically linear surrogate models that approximate the spectral behavior of large nonlinear random matrices, such as nonlinear feature maps in neural networks (NNs).
arXiv:2605. 27991v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Gradient-flow optimization is usually viewed as an algorithmic procedure for minimizing empirical loss, with training duration selected by validation or heuristic early-stopping rules.
arXiv:2509. 09371v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Distributionally robust optimization (DRO) protects statistical learning against distributional shifts by optimizing the worst-case performance over a set of perturbed distributions.
