arXiv:2608. 01547v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Drifting objectives compare a target and model distribution through a vector field observed noisily at finitely many locations.

arXiv:2608. 15144v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Posterior sampling with a pretrained diffusion prior is governed by a conditional score whose intermediate likelihood component is generally intractable.

arXiv:2510. 12744v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We develop a unified statistical framework for softmax-gated Gaussian mixture of experts (SGMoE) that addresses three long-standing obstacles in parameter estimation and model selection: (i) non-identifiability of gating parameters up to common translations, (ii) intrinsic gate-expert interactions that induce coupled differential relations in the likelihood, and (iii) the tight numerator-denominator coupling in the softmax-induced conditional density.

arXiv:2608. 13201v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We develop the statistical and algorithmic theory of inverse optimal transport (IOT) under the feature-parameterized cost C_theta(i,j) = -theta^T phi(i,j).

arXiv:2608. 18004v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Probabilistic modeling of physical fields benefits from both a data-driven prior and known physical structure such as the governing equations.

arXiv:2606. 26975v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Empirical Bayes (EB) estimators can match the first-order asymptotic risk of maximum likelihood (ML) while behaving very differently at second order: recent excess mean squared error (XMSE) analysis shows that kernel-based EB estimation may be worse than ML when the kernel is poorly aligned with the true parameter.

arXiv:2606. 30230v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Learned reconstruction operators for inverse problems are typically trained under a fixed noise model, and generalize poorly when the distribution during testing differs from the one assumed during training.

arXiv:2507. 07008v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Used as priors for Bayesian inverse problems, diffusion models have recently attracted considerable attention in the literature.
