End-to-End Deep Learning for Predicting Metric Space-Valued Outputs

arXiv:2509.23544v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Many modern applications involve predicting structured, non-Euclidean outputs such as probability distributions, networks, and symmetric positive-definite matrices. These outputs are naturally modeled as elements of general metric spaces, where classical regression techniques that rely on…

Precise Asymptotics of Bagging Regularized M-estimators

arXiv:2409.15252v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We characterize the squared prediction risk of ensemble estimators obtained through subagging (subsample bootstrap aggregating) regularized M-estimators and construct a consistent estimator for the risk. Specifically, we consider a heterogeneous collection of $M ge 1$…

DAL: A Practical Prior-Free Black-Box Framework for Non-Stationary Bandits

arXiv:2501.19401v4 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We introduce a practical, black-box framework termed Detection Augmented Learning (DAL) for the problem of non-stationary bandits without prior knowledge of the underlying non-stationarity. DAL accepts any stationary bandit algorithm as input and augments it…

Singleton-Optimized Conformal Prediction

arXiv:2509.24095v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Conformal prediction can be used to construct prediction sets that cover the true outcome with a desired probability, but can sometimes lead to large prediction sets that are costly in practice. The most useful outcome…

ActiveCQ: Active Estimation of Causal Quantities

arXiv:2509.24293v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Estimating causal quantities (CQs) typically requires large datasets, which can be expensive to obtain, especially when measuring individual outcomes is costly. This challenge highlights the importance of sample-efficient active learning strategies. To address the narrow…

PEARL: Performance-Enhanced Aggregated Representation Learning

arXiv:2509.24312v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Representation learning is a key technique in modern machine learning that enables models to identify meaningful patterns in complex data. However, different methods tend to extract distinct aspects of the data, and relying on a…

Preference-Based Dynamic Ranking Structure Recognition

arXiv:2509.24493v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Preference-based data often appear complex and noisy but may conceal underlying homogeneous structures. This paper introduces a novel framework of ranking structure recognition for preference-based data. We first develop an approach to identify dynamic ranking…
