SPADE: Faster Drug Discovery by Learning from Sparse Data

arXiv:2605.05370v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Drug discovery seeks molecules (ligands) that bind strongly and selectively to a target protein. However, fewer than 5% of candidate ligands pass the bar for even the early stages of drug discovery. Furthermore, we want…

Leveraging Analytic Gradients in Provably Safe Reinforcement Learning

arXiv:2506.01665v4 Announce Type: replace Abstract: The deployment of autonomous robots in safety-critical applications requires safety guarantees. Provably safe reinforcement learning is an active field of research that aims to provide such guarantees using safeguards. These safeguards should be integrated during…

Aligned explanations in neural networks

arXiv:2601.04378v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: As artificial intelligence increasingly drives critical decisions, the ability to genuinely explain how neural networks make predictions is essential for trust. Yet, most current explanation methods offer post-hoc rationalizations rather than guaranteeing a true reflection…

Two-Stage Learned Decomposition for Scalable Routing on Multigraphs

arXiv:2605.05389v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Most neural methods for Vehicle Routing Problems (VRPs) are limited to Euclidean settings or simple graphs. In this work, we instead consider multigraphs, where parallel edges represent distinct travel options with varying trade-offs (e.g., distance…

Pretrained Event Classification Model for High Energy Physics Analysis

arXiv:2412.10665v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We introduce a foundation model for event classification in high-energy physics, built on a Graph Neural Network architecture and trained on 120 million simulated proton-proton collision events spanning 12 distinct physics processes. The model is…

Dense Neural Networks are not Universal Approximators

arXiv:2602.07618v5 Announce Type: replace Abstract: We investigate the approximation capabilities of dense neural networks. While universal approximation theorems establish that sufficiently large architectures can approximate arbitrary continuous functions if there are no restrictions on the weight values, we show that…

Amortized Vine Copulas for High-Dimensional Density and Information Estimation

arXiv:2604.20568v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Modeling high-dimensional dependencies while keeping likelihoods tractable remains challenging. Classical vine-copula pipelines are interpretable but can be expensive, while many neural estimators are flexible but less structured. In this work, we propose Vine Denoising Copula…
