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.
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:2606. 00571v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Synthetic data are increasingly used to train neural networks, yet distributional mismatch with real data limits their effectiveness when used indiscriminately.
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:2605. 23595v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: The rapid advancement of machine learning has led to an unprecedented expansion of model ecosystems, making it increasingly difficult to assess the reliability of newly released models on unseen and unlabeled data.

arXiv:2603. 07523v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Transferring knowledge by fine-tuning large-scale pre-trained networks has become a standard paradigm for downstream tasks, yet the knowledge of a pre-trained model is tightly coupled with monolithic architecture, which restricts flexible reuse across models of varying scales.
arXiv:2503. 09679v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Meta-learning represents a strong class of approaches for solving few-shot learning tasks.
Gradient descent scales well to large models, but becomes unstable over long time horizons. Gradient-free optimizers can scale to arbitrary timespans, but are hobbled by high dimensions.
