arXiv:2608. 12974v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: McCoy & Griffiths (2025, henceforth M&G) suggest that a Bayesian prior can be distilled into Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs) through Model-Agnostic Meta-Learning (MAML, Finn et al.
arXiv:2607. 22961v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Verbalized Machine Learning (VML) parameterizes a model as a natural-language prompt that an LLM evaluates as f(x; theta).
arXiv:2601.17609v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: In domains like medicine and finance, large-scale labeled data is costly and often unavailable, leading to models trained on small datasets that st...
arXiv:2609.39525v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Casting Bayesian inference as a neural network optimization problem targeting an amortized posterior is attractive, as it extends to otherwise intracta...
arXiv:2407. 12288v5 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: The progress of machine learning over the past decade is undeniable.
arXiv:2609.38764v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Language models are typically pretrained from random initialization. Recent work challenges this convention, showing that a brief warm-up on abstract,...
arXiv:2608. 10867v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Gradient-free post-training has emerged as a compelling alternative to gradient-based optimization for large language models (LLMs), but existing approaches remain costly.
arXiv:2609.37891v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Current pre-training datasets are derived from web crawls, with all their issues, and were not designed to support mid- and post-training pipelines--...
Hierarchical data is ubiquitous in the empirical sciences and is most commonly analyzed with generalized linear mixed-effects models (GLMMs). Bayesian inference for GLMMs yields calibrated uncertainty...
arXiv:2607. 03426v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) exhibit strong reasoning and world-knowledge capabilities, yet often struggle to gather information effectively across the multi-turn interactions required in sequential decision-making settings.
arXiv:2609.24422v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Hierarchical data is ubiquitous in the empirical sciences and is most commonly analyzed with generalized linear mixed-effects models (GLMMs). Bayesian...
arXiv:2606. 07527v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The prevailing paradigm for training LLMs has evolved to rely on a massive post-training phase consisting of SFT and RL.
arXiv:2507. 08922v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Continual learning is an online paradigm where a learner continually accumulates knowledge from different tasks encountered over sequential time steps.
