SLDBench v2 is introduced with two extensions, and active scaling law discovery is introduced: an agent chooses which experiments to run, pays each one's recorded cost, and revises its law as outcomes arrive, and is scored on the same hidden extrapolation targets as in the passive setting.

Flow Matching (FM) has recently emerged as a principled and efficient generative modeling framework for reinforcement learning (RL), enabling expressive, multimodal policy parameterizations via deterministic probability transport. Compared to diffusion-based policies that rely on stochastic denoising chains, FM uses sa...

We study sampling from $\pi(x)\propto\mathrm{e}^{-V(x)}$ on $\mathbb{R}^d$, where $V$ is $\alpha$-strongly convex and $\beta$-smooth with condition number $\kappa=\beta/\alpha$. For this problem, the proximal sampler preserves the target exactly and recovers overdamped Langevin dynamics in the small-step limit, but its...
In-silico optimization of nucleic acids relies on predictive oracles that imperfectly capture biological function, so sequences optimized against one model may exploit model-specific artifacts and fail to generalize to independent models. Recent studies have shown that not all designers generalize equally well to indep...

Spatial transcriptomics jointly captures molecular state, tissue morphology, and spatial organization, yet spatial-domain methods are typically compared only at late training checkpoints, obscuring differences in convergence efficiency. We introduce MP-MNCA, a morphology-prior masked neighbor cross-attention framework...
A fruitful approach towards understanding generalization in machine learning involves characterizing how models separate generalizable structure from idiosyncratic or even corrupted features of training data. Fisher information has emerged as a diagnostic tool for this separation, leveraging loss geometry to distinguis...

Although post-training significantly enhances model performance, the use of massive undisclosed data raises concerns about benchmark contamination and copyright infringement. This drives growing interest in training data detection for post-trained models. Existing evaluations for training data detection often leverage...
Deploying LLM agents in non-stationary environments requires continually revising their instructions as the task drifts, yet rewriting after every reported mistake can turn noisy feedback into persistent errors. This raises an often-overlooked scheduling question in prompt adaptation: when should feedback trigger a las...
Reliable deployment of LLM-based multi-agent systems calls for runtime auditors that predict terminal outcomes from observed execution prefixes. These auditors typically learn from a limited corpus of trajectories with verified outcomes. Expanding this corpus requires costly execution and verification, yet broader fail...

Large language models (LLMs) have achieved remarkable success across a wide range of language tasks. At their core, autoregressive LLMs are conditional probability models that learn to approximate the next-token distribution given the preceding context. Despite this probabilistic nature, the stochastic dynamics of auto...

Layer-wise post-training quantization methods let each layer compensate for the quantization error inherited from earlier layers. We ask under what assumptions such compensation guarantees a network output error no larger than without it. For linear networks of any depth, with the required calibration Gram matrices inv...
Emergent misalignment (EM) occurs when fine-tuning a language model to a narrow task makes it misaligned on unrelated ones. Because organizations now routinely fine-tune models on their own data, it matters which kinds of training data cause EM. So far, studies have induced EM with data containing recognized safety fai...

Assistant Professor Benjamin Lindquist studies how engineers deliberately injected randomness into early AI, giving rise to deep-learning models that sometimes hallucinate.

Machine-learning networks can learn without detailed instructions from a designer. Those that do may offer insight into how the brain reorganizes itself during learning.
