arXiv:2512. 10825v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We consider the design of smoothings of the (coordinate-wise) max function in $\mathbb{R}^d$ in the infinity norm.
arXiv:2509. 24894v4 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: The LogSumExp function, dual to the Kullback-Leibler (KL) divergence, plays a central role in many important optimization problems, including entropy-regularized optimal transport (OT) and distributionally robust optimization (DRO).
arXiv:2512. 24152v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Sampling based on score diffusions has led to striking empirical results, and has attracted considerable attention from various research communities.
arXiv:2602. 01607v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Differentially private synthetic data enables the sharing and analysis of sensitive datasets while providing rigorous privacy guarantees for individual contributors.
arXiv:2607. 16966v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Estimating entropy from samples is fundamental in information theory and property testing.
arXiv:2607. 26285v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Two central challenges in diffusion-based sampling are the theoretical one of understanding their remarkable effectiveness even in high-dimensional settings, and the practical one of designing algorithms with certified performance guarantees.
arXiv:2606. 07325v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We study the minimax rate of estimating a future value $\mu_{t_n+h}$ of a curve $t\mapsto\mu_t$ in the $2$-Wasserstein space $\mathcal{P}_2(\mathbb{R}^d)$ from finitely many noisy snapshots of its past, under an adiabatic bound $\|\nabla_t^k v\|\le\varepsilon$ on the $k$-th covariant derivative of the velocity field.
arXiv:2509. 19830v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Kolmogorov-Arnold Networks (KANs) approximate multivariate functions by composing univariate transformations through additive or multiplicative aggregation.
arXiv:2607. 00876v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Private continual counting is a fundamental problem in differential privacy: given a binary stream of length $n$, where each $1$ corresponds to the contribution of one individual, the goal is to release all running counts while protecting the privacy of each individual.
arXiv:2511. 13999v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: We study the running time, in terms of first order oracle queries, of differentially private empirical/population risk minimization of Lipschitz convex losses.
arXiv:2607. 22889v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Learning the natural parameters $z \in \mathbb{R}^n$ of discrete distributions $\mu_z$ from independent samples constrained to a subset $S \subseteq \{0,1\}^n$ is a foundational challenge in high-dimensional statistics.
arXiv:2602. 12471v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: We consider the optimization problem of minimizing the logistic loss with gradient descent to train a linear model for binary classification with separable data.
arXiv:2601. 20970v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: The maximum-entropy remote sampling problem (MERSP) is to select a subset of $s$ random variables from a set of $n$ random variables, so as to maximize the information concerning a set of target random variables that are not directly observable.
