arXiv:2412.06154v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Countless science and engineering applications in multi-objective optimization (MOO) necessitate that decision-makers (DMs) select a Pareto-optimal (PO) solution which aligns with their preferences. Evaluating individual solutions is often expensive, and the high-dimensional trade-off space makes…
arXiv:2604.01342v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Multivariate Hawkes processes are a widely used class of self-exciting point processes, but maximum likelihood estimation naively scales as $O(N^2)$ in the number of events. The canonical linear exponential Hawkes process admits a faster $O(N)$…
arXiv:2509.18001v5 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Sharpness-aware minimization (SAM) has emerged as a highly effective technique to improve model generalization, but its underlying principles are not fully understood. We investigate m-sharpness, where SAM performance improves monotonically as the micro-batch size for…
arXiv:2604.01345v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Inverse reinforcement learning (IRL) recovers the loss function of a forward learner from its observed responses adaptive IRL aims to reconstruct the loss function of a forward learner by passively observing its gradients as it…
arXiv:2511.20456v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Machine learning drives Channel State Information (CSI)-based human sensing in modern wireless networks, enabling applications like device-free human activity recognition (HAR) and identification (HID). However, the susceptibility of these models to adversarial perturbations raises security…
arXiv:2405.03083v5 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Causal effects are often characterized with population summaries. These might provide an incomplete picture when there are heterogeneous treatment effects across subgroups. Since the subgroup structure is typically unknown, it is more challenging to identify…
arXiv:2601.06810v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: The Wasserstein-Fisher-Rao (WFR) metric extends dynamic optimal transport (OT) by coupling displacement with change of mass, providing a principled geometry for modeling unbalanced snapshot dynamics. Existing WFR solvers, however, are often unstable, computationally expensive, and…
arXiv:2603.20453v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Reinforcement learning from human feedback (RLHF) replaces hard-to-specify rewards with pairwise trajectory preferences, yet regret-oriented theory often assumes that preference labels are generated consistently from a single ground-truth objective. In practical RLHF systems, however, feedback…
arXiv:2506.08514v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Class Activation Mapping (CAM) and its gradient-based variants (e.g., GradCAM) have become standard tools for explaining Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) predictions. However, these approaches typically focus on individual logits, while for neural networks using softmax,…
arXiv:2510.18520v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: The ROC curve is widely used to assess binary classifiers. Yet for some applications, such as alert systems for monitoring hospitalized patients, conventional ROC analysis cannot meet two key deployment needs: enforcing a constraint on…
