arXiv:2607. 02850v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Meta-learning without labeled data is crucial for real-world applications, where obtaining labeled datasets can be expensive or restricted due to privacy concerns.

arXiv:2410. 13341v4 Announce Type: replace Abstract: High quality annotations are increasingly a bottleneck in the explosively growing machine learning ecosystem.

arXiv:2606. 02008v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Pre-training has become a fundamental paradigm in modern machine learning, with one of its key empirical benefits being reduced downstream sample complexity as the scale of pre-training data increases.

arXiv:2506. 07673v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Large language model (LLM) evaluation is increasingly costly, prompting interest in methods that speed up evaluation by shrinking benchmark datasets.

arXiv:2607. 05046v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Evaluating generative AI models is a routine, but resource-intensive, process that is conducted over and over again during the course of model development.

arXiv:2605. 23268v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: In many prediction problems, we have extra information during training (for example, measurements that are expensive or slow to collect) that will not be available when the model is deployed.

arXiv:2512. 10244v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Semi-supervised few-shot learning (SSFSL) resembles real-world applications such as auto-annotation, as it aims to learn a model from a few labeled and abundant unlabeled task-specific examples to annotate the unlabeled ones.

arXiv:2601. 07965v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: When a model knows when it does not know, many possibilities emerge.

arXiv:2606. 29784v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Reliable generative AI models critically rely on expert human annotations to evaluate output quality, yet these "gold" labels are expensive to collect and limited in quantity.

Pre-training has become a fundamental paradigm in modern machine learning, with one of its key empirical benefits being reduced downstream sample complexity as the scale of pre-training data increases. However, existing theoretical frameworks for pre-training do not fully explain this phenomenon.
arXiv:2605. 28418v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: With the rise of tabular foundation models alongside traditional models still performing well on many tasks, choosing the right model for a tabular dataset remains difficult.
By Markus Herre, Andrej Tschalzev, Sascha Marton, Christian Bartelt
arXiv:2508. 02039v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Increasing concerns for data privacy and other difficulties associated with retrieving source data for model training have created the need for source-free transfer learning, in which one only has access to pre-trained models instead of data from the original source domains.
