SSR: Sparse Segment Reduction for Ternary GEMM Acceleration

Large Language Models (LLMs) require substantial computational resources, limiting their deployment on resource-constrained hardware. Ternary LLMs mitigate these demands through weight quantization via ternary values, achieving significant compression often with 50-90% sparsity. However, existing approaches have limita...

VETTA: Coordinating Turn- and Token-Level Credit Assignment for Multi-Turn LLM Agents

Multi-turn LLM agents often receive sparse task feedback across several interactions, while generating each response token by token. This creates two related credit-assignment questions: which responses helped achieve the outcome, and which generation decisions mattered within each response? Existing methods typically...

Atom-JEPA: Joint-Embedding Predictive Architecture for 3D Atomistic Systems

Atom-JEPA is introduced, a self-supervised pretraining framework that learns latent representations from unlabeled 3D structures through complementary atom-level and substructure-level objectives inspired by joint-embedding predictive architectures that achieves state-of-the-art performance on molecular ADMET and quant...

Decision-Focused Learning in MDPs: An Occupancy Measure Approach

In this work, we consider decision-focused learning (DFL) for a Markov decision process (MDP), where existing methods differentiate through the KKT conditions of the Bellman equation and require solving a linear system over all state-action pairs, limiting its scalability. We address this by reformulating the MDP as an...

Accelerating the Development of PLGA In Situ Forming Depots Through AI-Driven Multi-Objective Optimization

Developing long-acting injectable formulations requires the simultaneous optimization of drug loading, release kinetics, viscosity, injectability, stability and other objectives. To navigate this multidimensional space, Corbion and Intrepid combined Corbion's diverse PURASORB bioresorbable polymer library with Intrepid...

Evolutionary One-Step Generators: Fast and Diverse Sampling for Discrete Design

Several discrete design tasks, such as molecular discovery, require diverse collections of useful candidates at low computational cost. High validity alone does not guarantee a useful candidate library: repeatedly generating the same valid structures leaves few distinct alternatives. Training for both feasibility and d...

Sensor Geometry as a Flow-Matching Prior for Multi-Channel Brain Signals

Flow-matching models start from an isotropic Gaussian source, the standard choice when the correlation structure of the data is unknown in advance. For multi-channel brain recordings, however, part of this structure is known in advance. Electrodes sit at fixed positions on the head, and volume conduction through the sk...

Uncertainty Quantification Is Indispensable for Reliable Connectome-Based Graph Learning: A Narrative Review and Case Study

While graph neural networks (GNNs) have shown substantial promise in connectome-based diagnostic classification, deterministic models inevitably suppress pipeline-induced noise and model ambiguities, yielding overconfident predictions. Although uncertainty quantification (UQ) is widely adopted in voxel-level segmentati...

Structure-Aware Graph Abstention for Reliable Selective Forecasting

Selective forecasting abstains on high-risk test windows under a retained-coverage budget. Existing gates such as TEM (Brusokas et al., 2025) score each forecast as a whole; for multivariate outputs, trajectories can look plausible while violating dependencies among variables. We treat instance-level plausibility and r...

OxiGen: Oxidation-State-Aware Crystal Generation

Generative models have the potential to accelerate inorganic materials discovery by enabling inverse design, but generating experimentally realisable crystals remains challenging. Oxidation states are widely used to assess the compositional validity of crystals and guide inorganic materials discovery. While existing ge...

Scalable extraction and visualization of multi-attribute logical and functional dependencies in tabular data

Understanding the structural relationships among attributes in tabular data is fundamental to machine learning and pattern recognition. While functional dependency (FD) discovery has been extensively studied, scalable discovery of logical dependencies (LDs), particularly as the number of attributes and dependency order...

Performative Prediction with Selective Labels

Many social applications of machine learning exhibit performative effects: population behavior changes in response to deployed models. Performative prediction studies this interaction through a distribution map that relates each model to the population distribution it induces. One of the main results in this framework...
