Model providers now face distillation campaigns run through thousands of accounts, each of which looks like an ordinary user. When network and payment metadata cannot link those accounts, the only evidence left is what they ask. We study what a provider can and cannot learn from those queries alone, using one million r...
Some backdoor attacks never touch an image. FLIP only changes labels: on CIFAR-10, flipping 3% of them makes a ResNet-32 send 99.7% of triggered source-class images to the attacker's class. The usual defenses look for the poison inside a model trained on those same labels. So when they struggle, is the problem the test...
Consumer rotating devices, including washing machines, air conditioners, electric fans, robotic vacuum cleaners, and home fitness equipment, increasingly rely on vibration sensing for intelligent condition monitoring and predictive maintenance. Ensuring reliable operation in these resource-constrained appliances requir...

If a second text corpus were collected from the same population, how much would a predictor's outputs change? We study this question for masked-text reconstruction using a smoothed predictor built from nearby token-pair counts and evaluated over the full 50,257-token GPT-2 vocabulary. Treating each source document as o...

Continuous-time latent state-space models are widely used for irregularly observed time series, typically representing uncertainty through a random initial state followed by smooth ordinary differential equation (ODE) dynamics, or Brownian perturbations accumulated by a stochastic differential equation (SDE). While the...

Neural-network variational Monte Carlo provides an accurate route to solving the electronic Schr\"odinger equation, but many neural wavefunctions are optimized for a single nuclear geometry, requiring separate calculations to map out a potential energy surface. We introduce NucleoNet, a nuclear-aware determinant ansatz...

The increasing demand for GPU-accelerated machine learning inference has exposed limitations in centralized GPU infrastructures, including high cost, limited elasticity, and long wait times under resource constraints. At the same time, modern Apple Silicon-based macOS devices are equipped with powerful GPUs that remain...

Comparing distributions under severe sample imbalance requires effectively using abundant majority observations while retaining sensitivity to differences involving the smaller sample. This challenge is particularly relevant for complex, non-Euclidean data, such as graphs, whose structural characteristics call for flex...
We study dictionary learning for probability measure-valued data by embedding measures into Hilbert spaces using features derived from optimal transport geometry. We learn data-adapted dictionaries through sparse autoencoder parameterizations, producing fast, scalable representations of probability measures as sparse f...

We consider online binary prediction with paid stochastic features, where the learner can spend resources to obtain better observations of the underlying features. This setting is motivated by applications such as medical testing, where additional cost can provide more precise measurements of patient's features for pre...

Federated vision-language models (FedVLMs) represent one of the emerging frontiers of machine learning, aiming to integrate federated learning within the fine-tuning pipelines of vision-language models (VLMs). In this work, we introduce BLEND, a new framework designed to jointly enhance the personalization and generali...

In continuous diffusion language models (DLMs), latents generated by the diffusion prior are mapped almost deterministically to tokens, either by a decoder or through a token embedding matrix. Unlike in image generation, where visual details can vary continuously, the diffusion prior must capture fine-grained discrete...
