Stochastic Optimization with Random Search

arXiv:2510.15610v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We revisit random search for stochastic optimization, where only noisy function evaluations are available. We show that the method works under weaker smoothness assumptions than previously considered, and that stronger assumptions enable improved guarantees. In…

Automotive Crash Dynamics Modeling Accelerated with Machine Learning

arXiv:2510.15201v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Crashworthiness assessment is a critical aspect of automotive design, traditionally relying on high-fidelity finite element (FE) simulations that are computationally expensive and time-consuming. This work presents an exploratory comparative study on developing machine learning-based surrogate…

SpeechLLMs for Large-scale Contextualized Zero-shot Slot Filling

arXiv:2510.15851v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Slot filling is a crucial subtask in spoken language understanding (SLU), traditionally implemented as a cascade of speech recognition followed by one or more natural language understanding (NLU) components. The recent advent of speech-based large…

Predicting gene essentiality and drug response from perturbation screens in preclinical cancer models with LEAP: Layered Ensemble of Autoencoders and Predictors

arXiv:2502.15646v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: High-throughput preclinical perturbation screens, where the effects of genetic, chemical, or environmental perturbations are systematically tested on disease models, hold significant promise for machine learning-enhanced drug discovery due to their scale and causal nature. Predictive…
