Mid-prefill pruning can reduce the sequence processed by deeper transformer layers, but attention concentration alone does not certify that discarded context is dispensable. We formulate EntroPrefill as a Renyi-guided proposal mechanism coupled to explicit constraints on discarded attention mass. Sink-isolated, regular...
In this paper we have developed a differentiable approximation of the well-known SEEPS score, which we name SoftSEEPS. This allows the training of a Machine Learning model to forecast precipitation directly. We test SoftSEEPS on the IMERG dataset (0.1 degree resolution) by training a decoder for precipitation on the la...
We introduce EC-EarthFlow, a generative flow matching model that emulates simulations from the physical climate model EC-Earth3. The model is trained on transient simulations from EC-Earth3 (1950-2166, SSP2-4.5) to predict the day ahead temperature field from the previous days temperature as well as annual mean tempera...
Can we determine whether a foundation model will generalize out-of-distribution (OOD) before any target data is available? Existing diagnostics require source or target data, which rules them out before a target domain exists. Those that use the weights alone apply one statistic to every architecture, and do not separa...

We study the accuracy of Gauss-Newton curvature in ridge-regularized nonlinear least squares. Under local regularity and persistence of level-set curvature magnitude along an exact-fit section, we prove uniform coexistence of two curvature regimes. Global minimizers exist, and every global minimizer has relative Hessia...
Wavelet-based financial forecasters typically use the transform only to denoise, or reduce it to a single spectral snapshot at the forecast origin, and the convolution that produces the coefficients is usually bilateral, so it can read past the forecast origin. DSTNet instead retains the recent evolution of filter-bank...
DP-SGD protects training data by adding Gaussian noise to clipped gradients. The amount of noise is usually chosen by running a numerical privacy accountant inside a search. We study DP-SGD with random allocation, where each epoch uses every record once, at a randomly chosen step. For this setting we give a one-line fo...
It is shown that direction is a property of the regime-statistic pair and cannot be fixed by recalibration alone, and two often-conflated statistics: RankMe normalises singular values, whereas covariance effective rank normalises eigenvalues.
Networks that behave alike now can still learn differently when training continues. Work on loss of plasticity and critical periods shows that the path to a state shapes what follows; it does not show whether the path carries information that a measurement of the state itself misses. We ask when the training history of...
We study which parameters of deep, unmasked, single-head attention are determined by its input--output function. For known positive nonconstant real-analytic normalizers, the function generically determines the effective scores and combined value map up to the signs induced by even normalizers. This proves the real-ana...
Large neural networks often acquire capabilities that small models fail to learn. Does this stem from large models learning more representative features, or from being more robust to unaccounted-for adverse effects introduced during training? We define and quantify one such adverse effect, primacy bias, as the extent t...
Semi-supervised learning (SSL) relies on two core mechanisms: self-training under the Teacher-Student (T-S) framework and joint optimization of labeled and unlabeled losses. Despite their effectiveness, we find both mechanisms introduce distinct optimization pathologies. First, parameter coupling enforces strict synchr...
