We consider the problem of learning to generate data while satisfying a prescribed \emph{sample-wise} constraint with a user-specified probability of constraint satisfaction. Starting with a population-level constrained negative log-likelihood minimization and using a flow-matching (FM) parameterization, under regulari...
Molecular machine learning evaluates out-of-distribution performance with structure disjoint splits, a construction rule fixed once at the scale its library happened to have: threshold a pairwise distance, then assign whole connected components to folds. For predicting structures from mass spectra, the field has conver...
Background: Discontinuity in neonatal EEG is a critical marker of brain dysfunction but can be difficult to quantify visually. Inter-burst intervals (IBIs) are a key characteristic of discontinuity, yet their definition does not easily translate to AI detection. Objectives: To introduce low-voltage intervals (LVIs), de...
Efficient sampling from Bayesian posterior distributions in high dimensions remains a hard problem, despite advances in theory and algorithms. Multiple steps are usually required to draw unbiased samples, for example, iterations of an MCMC algorithm or integration steps in a diffusion-based amortised sampler. However,...

We develop a data-driven sensor-placement framework and apply it to aerosol monitoring in the United Kingdom (UK). A trained convolutional Gaussian neural process is embedded within the DeepSensor optimisation framework. Genetic optimisation with lazy evaluation and caching reduces mean computational time by 60\% (10$\...
LLM agents executing multi-step workflows fail in two fundamentally different ways: recoverable slips, which further attempts can repair, and knowledge gaps, which retrying cannot resolve. Expert feedback can address the latter, but expert attention is scarce. The key challenge is therefore not whether to ask for feedb...
Sparse computation can scale the parametric capacity of LLMs without proportionally increasing active computation, but pretraining sparse architectures remains expensive and data-hungry. Existing sparse upcycling methods mainly target Mixture-of-Experts models, where expert homogeneity, sample inefficiency, and system...
Event sequences are chains of random events, each described by heterogeneous (numerical and categorical) features. The problem of event sequence forecasting occurs in finance, healthcare, business process intelligence, and other fields. In this work, we study multi-horizon forecasting of event sequences as a conditiona...
Online reinforcement learning (RL) fine-tunes diffusion models with black-box rewards, but reverse-process methods such as Flow-GRPO are limited in efficiency by poor credit assignment, while forward-process methods such as DiffusionNFT are efficient yet unstable without carefully tuned exponential-moving-average (EMA)...
Most systems trained by equilibrium propagation or coupled learning are in the same class as multi-layer perceptrons: while they may be universal function approximators, they struggle to learn associative tasks which are easy for transformers. Equilibrium propagation relies on a bidirectional flow of information throug...
Zeroth-order (ZO) optimization offers a memory-efficient alternative to backpropagation for fine-tuning large language models. However, existing ZO methods typically sample training examples uniformly, overlooking their evolving importance and leaving avoidable estimation variance. To address this limitation, we propos...
Masked diffusion models (MDMs) generate discrete data by iteratively unmasking multiple tokens in parallel using a learned mask predictor. Their output carries two errors: parallelization error due to parallel sampling, and estimation error from the mask predictor learned with finite samples. Existing theory treats the...

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