Forecasting Conceptual Diffusion in Science: The Case of Quantum Computing

arXiv:2606.03919v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Understanding and anticipating scientific change requires models that distinguish between endogenous consolidation and exogenous diffusion of scientific concepts. Using the quantum computing subtree of concepts in OpenAlex, we construct a temporally resolved concept co-occurrence network…

Pruning Deep Neural Networks via the Marchenko–Pastur Distribution

arXiv:2606.02608v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We study a Marchenko–Pastur (MP) random-matrix approach to pruning deep neural networks with very small post-pruning fine-tuning budgets. The main practical contribution is accuracy retention under short calibration and fine-tuning schedules, rather than a long…

Wasserstein Contraction of Coordinate Ascent Variational Inference

arXiv:2605.30253v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We study the contraction in Wasserstein distance of the coordinate ascent variational inference algorithm. This is shown to hold under a transport-information inequality at the fixed points and a functional smoothness condition. The results are…

CL-DMDF:Dynamic Multimodal Data Fusion Model Based on Contrastive Learning

arXiv:2606.02659v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Multimodal data fusion involves integrating and analyzing information from multiple modalities to uncover latent correlations and complementary patterns, thereby enhancing data processing and decision-making. While existing methods for structured multimodal inputs are typically designed around…
