Next-generation wireless networks are moving toward the use of concurrent AI-driven control functions to optimize different objectives, particularly in AI-RAN and O-RAN architectures. When these functions interact, they can interfere with one another in ways that are difficult to detect from raw network data alone. A k...
Theoretical studies of machine learning models commonly consider different limiting regimes in which the learning dynamics of gradient descent becomes theoretically tractable. It is, however, desirable to have a systematically obtained picture of qualitatively different extreme learning regimes for a particular type of...
The validation of advanced nuclear reactor designs and fuel concepts will require the design of new critical experiments with high neutronic similarity to the target technology. Neutronic similarity can be quantified by the correlation coefficient $c_k$, which captures the shared bias in $k_\text{eff}$ induced by uncer...

Multi-objective optimization (MOO) underlies many machine learning problems, yet MOO solvers across the loss-balancing, gradient-balancing, and Pareto-based families almost universally hand their reconciled directions to Adam~\citep{kingma2015adam}. We show this coupling introduces two systematic gaps between the solve...

This paper studies theoretical guarantees of a one-step lookahead Bayesian optimization (BO) method. Although the empirical effectiveness of one-step lookahead BO methods, such as entropy search, has been studied extensively, they often rely on computationally intractable approximations, and their regret guarantees rem...
Recent defenses for safeguarding open-weight large language models (LLMs) are intended to prevent adversarial usage. Underlying these defenses is an assumption that new harmful behavior is learned through fine-tuning rather than elicited by jailbreaking the model. Yet, pretrained LLMs already encode substantial harmful...

We present an improved neural field architecture for solving partial differential equations (PDEs). Current physics-informed neural networks (PINNs) provide a flexible framework for solving PDEs, but they struggle to achieve highly accurate solutions and require computation that scales poorly with parameter count. Our...

Conventional treatment policies map patient covariates to a single recommended intervention in order to maximize expected clinical outcomes. However, when multiple treatments yield statistically indistinguishable outcomes or when treatment has no effect, recommending a single intervention may result in somewhat arbitra...

We show that the training problem of a deep linear neural network under the squared loss admits an exact convex reformulation in a lifted space over a generalized completely positive cone. The reformulation has the same optimal value as the original nonconvex problem and is linear in the lifted variables, with all nonc...
Hybrid mechanistic models, physical priors with learned residuals, promise to reduce the data required for good decisions, but have no computable criterion to test this. We characterize the value of mechanistic priors in sequential decision-making within both asymptotic and burn-in regimes. To formalize this, we introd...
Practical diffusion sampling requires simulating a reverse-time ODE or SDE with a limited number of denoising steps, making the choice of sampling parameters crucial for minimizing discretization error. Non-asymptotic convergence bounds characterize sampling complexity, but their worst-case constants can obscure target...

Learning hierarchical features in Sparse Autoencoders (SAEs) is essential for capturing the structured nature of real-world data and mitigating issues like feature absorption or splitting. Existing works attempt to identify hierarchical relationships within independent feature sets by relying on activation coverage, th...

Students in MIT’s Concourse program delve deeply into the human condition, debate challenging questions, and learn to develop judgment about issues that can’t be quantified.
Training AI agents with reinforcement learning can be challenging because their tools, context, and decision-making are managed by complex frameworks. Agent Lightning connects existing agents to RL training, making it easier to improve them without rebuilding them. The post Agent Lightning v1.0: A 3,500-Line Lightweight Agentic RL Framework for Training Agents with Real Harnesses appeared first on Microsoft Research.
