arXiv:2607. 21999v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Long-tailed learning couples two sources of poor generalization: head classes dominate training exposure, while under-represented classes often converge to sharper regions of the loss landscape.
arXiv:2603. 10184v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Statistical inference with bandit data presents fundamental challenges owing to adaptive sampling, which violates the independence assumptions underlying classical asymptotic theory.
arXiv:2607. 02137v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We study timestep allocation for score-based diffusion sampling, where a learned reverse-time dynamics is discretized on a finite grid.
arXiv:2606. 27171v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: This work addresses the problem of variance in stochastic gradient estimation for machine learning optimization.
arXiv:2607. 01179v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Scaling inference compute, by generating many parallel attempts per problem, is a costly but reliable lever for improving language model capabilities.
We study timestep allocation for score-based diffusion sampling, where a learned reverse-time dynamics is discretized on a finite grid. Uniform and hand-crafted schedules are standard choices, but they rely on fixed prescriptions and can therefore be suboptimal.
arXiv:2503. 14549v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: How can a cheap but biased sequential, finite-horizon sampler over a discrete space be corrected so that its terminal output follows a prescribed Gibbs distribution?
arXiv:2510. 11711v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: This paper proposes a synergy of amortised and particle-based methods for sampling from distributions defined by unnormalised density functions.
arXiv:2602. 05379v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Effective reinforcement learning (RL) for complex stochastic systems requires leveraging historical data to improve sample efficiency and accelerate policy optimization.
arXiv:2608. 08644v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We consider the problem of sampling compositional and discrete objects from a given unnormalized posterior distribution.
arXiv:2606. 32005v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Stochastic Gradient Descent ($\textsf{SGD}$) is one of the most classical optimization algorithms with favorable theoretical guarantees, yet the practical implementation of $\textsf{SGD}$ differs subtly from its well-known form and is often referred to as Shuffling Stochastic Gradient Descent ($\textsf{Shuffling SGD}$).
arXiv:2608. 25551v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Stochastic gradient descent (SGD) is typically analyzed at a deterministic horizon chosen before the algorithm is run, even though practical stopping decisions are made adaptively by inspecting the evolving trajectory.
