Fewer latent tokens promise cheaper diffusion. Yet aggressive latent compression creates a reconstruction-generation dilemma: adding channels improves reconstruction but makes generation harder. We introduce APEX, short for Asynchronous Prefix denoising for EXtreme compression, which pairs a hierarchical latent space w...

Determinantal point processes (DPPs) on a finite set are probability models that exhibit repulsion where inter-item similarities are encoded by a positive definite kernel matrix. Scaling DPP learning to large datasets typically requires imposing structural constraints on the kernel matrix, such as a low-rank-plus-diago...
We study byte-level autoregressive language models whose hidden state is a small quantum register, whose transitions are learned token-conditioned quantum channels, and whose next-byte probabilities come directly from Born-rule measurements without a learned classical vocabulary projection or softmax. In the fixed-widt...
Approximating the effective anisotropic hyperelastic response of a representative volume element (RVE) requires constitutive expressiveness, mechanical consistency, and computational efficiency. This work develops a polyconvex physics-augmented neural network (PANN) construction based on paired directional features who...

The two main traditional player statistics used in soccer are goals scored and assists, with an assist credited when a player's pass immediately leads to a teammate scoring. Attributing credit solely to the player who makes the final pass before a goal fails to account for the contributions of multiple players in the b...
We study the two-sample estimation of the powered Sliced Wasserstein functional under projected $r$-th moment assumptions. Let $N=n\wedge m$, where $n$ and $m$ are two sample sizes. We establish the minimax rates in the noncritical regimes. When $p<r<2p$, the minimax risk is of order $N^{-(r-p)/r}$, while for $r>2p$ it...
Stereo vision is increasingly used for robotic manipulation, with a growing body of work incorporating it into Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models. However, the scarcity of large-scale, real-world stereo datasets remains a fundamental bottleneck for scaling such policies. Recent generative monocular-to-stereo methods t...

Zebra3D, a layerwise sparse-linear hybrid attention framework that improves the efficiency of pretrained 3D foundation models without training from scratch, achieves strong reconstruction and camera-pose accuracy at high attention sparsity, with training-free variants remaining close to their dense counterparts.

Large language models are stochastic by nature. Repeated executions under the same experimental conditions may produce different responses. We propose a framework that can be applied across the model lifecycle, from task design to residual behavior and continuous monitoring. The method consists of building an empirical...
PVBRF-ID is presented, a two-server protocol in which sites secret-share their updates and the servers jointly test each update's norm and its cosine similarity to a reference computed on a small clean root set, revealing one accept bit per site.

High-risk applications of deep learning require precise characterization of model decision-making. We conduct a systematic explainability evaluation across Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs), Vision Transformers (ViTs), and Vision Mamba (ViM). Unlike predominantly qualitative studies, we quantify the alignment betwee...

Prabha Jha used her experience with MIT Open Learning’s program for senior executives to develop AI solutions for her employer, Verizon, and to write a book.
Assistant Professor Benjamin Lindquist studies how engineers deliberately injected randomness into early AI, giving rise to deep-learning models that sometimes hallucinate.
