arXiv:2607. 10285v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We study how unsupervised autoencoders trained on microscopic spin configurations from the Ising model learn macroscopic, theory-relevant variables underlying the data-generating process.

arXiv:2601. 18823v4 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Variational autoencoders (VAE) encode data into lower-dimensional latent vectors before decoding those vectors back to data.

arXiv:2410. 10137v5 Announce Type: replace Abstract: We develop Riemannian approaches to variational autoencoders (VAEs) for PDE-type ambient data with regularizing geometric latent dynamics, which we refer to as VAE-DLM, or VAEs with dynamical latent manifolds.

arXiv:2606. 22649v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Foundation models provide highly descriptive representations for medical images, yet their reliability degrades under distribution shifts arising from changes in patients, devices, or acquisition conditions.

arXiv:2606. 22984v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Efficient sampling of the Boltzmann distribution in frustrated spin glasses is central to statistical mechanics and combinatorial optimization.

arXiv:2506. 21278v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We propose spherical Cauchy (spCauchy) latent variables for variational autoencoders on hyperspherical latent spaces.
