arXiv:2607. 20502v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: To allow for principled comparison between two probabilistic graphical models defined over non-identical variable sets, they have to be lifted to a common measurable space.

arXiv:2607. 18883v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: A central aim of unsupervised learning is to uncover latent factors that explain dependencies among observations.

arXiv:2401. 04890v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: This work introduces a novel principle for disentanglement we call mechanism sparsity regularization, which applies when the latent factors of interest depend sparsely on observed auxiliary variables and/or past latent factors.

arXiv:2606. 04045v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Representation learning is often described as preserving the information in an input that is relevant for prediction.

arXiv:2607. 26357v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The problem of learning the graphical Markov blanket (MB) of a variable from data has applications in many areas such as structure learning for Bayesian networks and Markov random fields, causal discovery, and feature selection.

arXiv:2506. 01075v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: The Boolean Fourier representation has been widely used in learning theory, particularly for learning Disjunctive Normal Form (DNF) under uniform and product distributions.

We introduce a data-driven probabilistic framework for learning systems based on Gibbs measures on hierarchical structures. Unlike standard empirical risk minimization, where a dataset is used to identify a single optimal parameter, our approach transforms the empirical loss function into an interaction potential defining an energy-based model.
arXiv:2608. 16565v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: This cumulative habilitation thesis studies probabilistic circuits (PCs) as a powerful and tractable framework for reasoning and learning under uncertainty in artificial intelligence (AI).

arXiv:2605. 26908v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Exploiting the indistinguishability of objects in a probabilistic graphical model such as a factor graph is key to lifted probabilistic inference algorithms and allows for tractable probabilistic inference problems with respect to domain sizes.

arXiv:2606. 16219v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Digital twin modeling, including control and data assimilation under model uncertainty, often faces an open-ended fidelity problem: adding variables, data streams, and time scales can indefinitely increase model complexity, ultimately producing systems that are difficult to maintain, validate, interpret, and use for stress or safety testing.
