arXiv:2603.25958v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The Minkowski weighted k-means (mwk-means) algorithm extends classical k-means by incorporating feature weights and a Minkowski distance. Despite its empirical success, its theoretical properties remain insufficiently understood. We show that the mwk-means objective can be…
arXiv:2603.25901v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Defensive coverage schemes in the National Football League (NFL) represent complex tactical patterns requiring coordinated assignments among defenders who must react dynamically to the offense’s passing concept. This paper presents a factorized attention-based transformer model…
arXiv:2603.25813v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We present MAGNET (Model Autonomously Growing Network), a decentralized system for autonomous generation, training, and serving of domain-expert language models across commodity hardware. MAGNET integrates four components: (1) autoresearch, an autonomous ML research pipeline that…
arXiv:2603.25872v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Diffusion models have achieved remarkable success in generating high-fidelity content but suffer from slow, iterative sampling, resulting in high latency that limits their use in interactive applications. We introduce DRiffusion, a parallel sampling framework that…

arXiv:2511.10938v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Motivated by the challenges of edge inference, we study a variant of the cascade bandit model in which each arm corresponds to an inference model with an associated accuracy and error probability. We analyse four…
arXiv:2412.04882v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Global optimisation to optimise expensive-to-evaluate black-box functions without gradient information. Bayesian optimisation, one of the most well-known techniques, typically employs Gaussian processes as surrogate models, leveraging their probabilistic nature to balance exploration and exploitation. However,…
arXiv:2510.05516v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Bayesian optimization (BO) is effective for expensive black-box problems but remains challenging in high dimensions. We propose NeST-BO, a curvature-aware local BO method that targets a (modified) Newton step by jointly learning gradient and Hessian…
arXiv:2503.22886v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Recent advancements in imitation learning have led to transformer-based behavior foundation models (BFMs) that enable multi-modal, human-like control for humanoid agents. While excelling at zero-shot generation of robust behaviors, BFMs often require meticulous prompt engineering…
arXiv:2603.25894v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: This paper presents a data-driven framework for modeling plastic deformation in crystalline metals through acoustic emission (AE) analysis. Building on experimental data from compressive loading of nickel micropillars, the study introduces a wavelet-based method using…
