Softly Symbolifying Kolmogorov-Arnold Networks

arXiv:2512.07875v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Kolmogorov-Arnold Networks (KANs) offer a promising path toward interpretable machine learning: their learnable activations can be studied individually, while collectively fitting complex data accurately. In practice, however, trained activations often lack symbolic fidelity, learning pathological…

Graph Contrastive Learning via Spectral Graph Alignment

arXiv:2512.07878v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Given augmented views of each input graph, contrastive learning methods (e.g., InfoNCE) optimize pairwise alignment of graph embeddings across views while providing no mechanism to control the global structure of the view specific graph-of-graphs built…

Nonnegative Matrix Factorization through Cone Collapse

arXiv:2512.07879v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Nonnegative matrix factorization (NMF) is a widely used tool for learning parts-based, low-dimensional representations of nonnegative data, with applications in vision, text, and bioinformatics. In clustering applications, orthogonal NMF (ONMF) variants further impose (approximate) orthogonality…
