Sparse plus Low-Rank $(\mathbf{S} + \mathbf{LR})$ decomposition of Large Language Models (LLMs) has emerged as a promising direction in model compression, aiming to decompose pre-trained model weights into a sum of sparse and low-rank matrices $(\mathbf{W} \approx \mathbf{S} + \mathbf{LR})$. Despite recent progress, ex...

Temporal information in structured electronic health records (EHRs) is often lost in sparse one-hot or count-based representations, while sequence models can be costly and data-hungry. We propose PaReGTA, an LLM-based encoding framework that (i) converts longitudinal EHR events into visit-level templated text with expl...

Granger causality identifies predictive dependencies in multivariate time series. In distributed settings where parties cannot share data, federated causal learning enables joint analysis. Most federated causal methods assume that clients observe the same features and infer causal relationships as point estimates, with...
Time series data are essential for a wide range of applications, yet access to high-quality datasets is often constrained by privacy concerns, acquisition costs, and labelling challenges. Synthetic time series generation has emerged as a promising approach to address these limitations. In this work, we investigate the...

Prior-Data Fitted Networks (PFNs) perform approximate Bayesian inference in a single forward pass, and tabular foundation models (TFMs) built on them are now widely used. To understand what networks infer internally, recent mechanistic studies of TFMs locate where predictions form, but treat these models as tabular pre...

Local Timescale Gating (LT-Gate) is proposed, a neuron model that combines dual time-constant dynamics with an adaptive gating mechanism that enables individual neurons to preserve slow contextual information while responding to fast signals, addressing the stability-plasticity dilemma.
We develop a source-driven fractional heat-kernel framework for semi-super\-vised graph learning that combines nonlocal propagation with sustained label information. A fixed nonzero label source compatible with the Laplacian null space prevents asymptotic collapse into that space, providing a mechanism for mitigating o...

We study history-dependent online problems with a possibly inaccurate prediction of the future request sequence. Motivated by several real-world applications, we introduce a \emph{bounded-influence} framework in which past decisions and requests affect the future optimal value by only a bounded amount. Within this fram...
A membership-inference attack gets the output of a learning algorithm, and a target individual, and tries to determine whether this individual is a member of the training data or an independent sample from the same distribution. A successful membership-inference attack typically requires the attacker to have some knowl...

Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) is an imaging technique widely used to study human brain activity. fMRI signals in areas across the brain transiently synchronise and desynchronise their activity in a highly structured manner, even when an individual is at rest. These functional connectivity dynamics may be...

Cross-subject motor-imagery electroencephalography (MI-EEG) decoding remains challenging because substantial inter-subject variability can cause both negative transfer from poorly matched source subjects and persistent distribution discrepancies between source and target domains. Existing multi-source domain adaptation...

Model fusion combines multiple Large Language Models (LLMs) with different strengths into a more powerful, integrated model through lightweight training methods. Existing works on model fusion focus primarily on supervised fine-tuning (SFT), leaving preference alignment (PA) --a critical phase for enhancing LLM perform...
