Compositional data -- vectors encoding relative proportions -- arise across scientific domains, including ecology, geochemistry, and genomics. The features in these data often come with known hierarchical structure (e.
arXiv:2605. 13894v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: In this work, we introduce a Tropical Axial Attention neural reasoning architecture that replaces vanilla softmax dot-product attention with max-plus operators, inducing a piecewise-linear structure aligned with dynamic programming formulations.

arXiv:2607. 18311v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Comparing phylogenetic tree topologies is essential for understanding epidemic dynamics, yet biologically meaningful distances such as the Subtree Prune and Regraft (SPR) distance are NP-hard to compute and intractable on large datasets.
