Abstract: We study the problem of sampling from $\mu(\mathrm{d}x)\propto e^{-V(x)}\,\mathrm{d}x$ on $\mathbb{R}^d$, where $V$ is $\alpha$-strongly convex and $...

arXiv:2607. 06644v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Determinantal point processes have recently emerged as a kernel-based alternative to standard independent sampling for constructing efficient minibatches, coresets, and other compact representations of large-scale datasets.

arXiv:2604. 14614v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We give an algorithm for PAC learning intersections of $k$ halfspaces with a $\rho$ margin to within error $\varepsilon$ that runs in time $\textsf{poly}(k, \varepsilon^{-1}, \rho^{-1}) \cdot \exp \left(O(\sqrt{n \log(1/\rho) \log k})\right)$.

arXiv:2004. 05813v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Suppose that we are given independent, identically distributed random samples $x_1,\cdots,x_n$ from a mixture at most $k$ many $d$-dimensional spherical Gaussian distributions $\mu_1,\cdots,\mu_{k_0}$ of identical and known variance $\sigma^2$ in each coordinate, such that the minimum $\ell^2$ distance between two distinct centers $y_l$ and $y_j$ is greater than $2\Delta\sigma \min\{\sqrt{d},\sqrt k\}$, where $\Delta>C_0$, and $C_0$ is a sufficiently large universal constant.

arXiv:2608. 07549v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Triangle meshes provide explicit and accurate surface geometry, yet their irregular topology connectivity makes 3D mesh tokenization a geometric sampling problem: how to sample and organize geometric evidence into compact, structured and learnable tokens.

arXiv:2606. 16333v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Most existing approaches either fix the container in advance or optimize only a single container dimension through an outer search loop, leaving the remaining dimensions as a manual tuning problem.

The paper investigates restricted eigenvalue (RE) bounds for norm‑regularized estimators under heavy‑tailed designs. It shows that the previously conjectured sample‑size law based on Gaussian width fails for heavy‑tailed measurements, due to a phenomenon called simultaneous threshold occupancy. The authors provide explicit counterexamples, derive worst‑case sample‑complexity bounds, and compare the behavior of heavy‑tailed versus Gaussian designs on constant‑width polyhedral descent cones.

The paper introduces a differentiable voxelization technique that computes gradients of volumetric properties, such as winding numbers, with respect to surface mesh parameters. This method allows efficient optimization of triangle meshes using voxel-based volume samples on a regular grid. The authors demonstrate its utility in applications like resolving mesh intersections, designing manufacturable shapes for bandsaw cutting, and creating near-tiling 3D structures.
