Abstract

Boundary-value problems for the Laplace equation develop singular behaviour near corners, edges and junctions that smooth approximators resolve poorly. We combine holomorphic neural networks with singular functions derived from the local geometry and boundary conditions. The representation is harmonic by construction, so no interior residual is needed: the network fits the smooth remainder from boundary data alone, and the enrichment terms capture the singular behaviour. Singular exponents are trainable, so the construction also applies when the local expansion is not known in advance. We extend the approach to three dimensions using independent networks evaluated along complex null directions. The enriched model is the most accurate tested method on every problem. Its margin is several orders of magnitude where the enrichment captures the singularity exactly, and a factor of about 1.7-2.1 over the next-best method on a CdZnTe radiation detector with many singular sites, in both two and three dimensions.

Diffusion models as plug-and-play priors

The possibility of inferring high-dimensional data inference in a model that consists of a prior and an auxiliary differentiable constraint given some additional information is considered, thereby allowing a range of potential applications in adapting models to new domains and tasks.

KTO: Model Alignment as Prospect Theoretic Optimization

This work proposes a HALO that directly maximizes the utility of generations instead of maximizing the log-likelihood of preferences, and suggests that the best loss depends on the inductive biases most appropriate for a given setting, an oft-overlooked consideration.
