MIMONet: Multi-scale Input and Multi-scale Output Network for Salient Object Detection

MIMONet is a saliency detection model that uses multi‑scale inputs and outputs to better handle objects of varying sizes. It processes three differently sized images through separate encoder branches that exchange information, allowing each branch to learn size‑variation knowledge from the others. A Multi‑scale Perception module further refines features, and a Joint Saliency Loss ensures consistent, well‑preserved boundaries across the multiple saliency maps produced.

Riemannian Optimization on Tree Tensor Networks with Application in Machine Learning

The paper presents a formal analysis of the quotient geometry of tree tensor networks (TTNs) and introduces efficient first- and second-order optimization algorithms that leverage this geometry. It also develops a backpropagation method for training TTNs in a kernel learning context. Numerical experiments on a digit classification task demonstrate a tradeoff between two horizontal distributions: one provides clearer geometric insights, while the other yields more efficient algorithms.

Generalization in Neural Networks Through the Lens of Magnitude Potential

The paper introduces magnitude potential, a metric derived from metric magnitude theory, to assess how well a point is represented by a set. By computing the ratio of magnitude potential relative to a class versus the entire dataset at the logit layer, the authors find correlations with Feldman memorization scores and detect structural changes in decision boundaries, including grokking in modular arithmetic. This ratio remains informative even when neural collapse is suppressed, highlighting its robustness in capturing intra‑ and inter‑class geometric structure.
