Non-Stationarity in the Embedding Space of Time Series Foundation Models

arXiv:2604.16428v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Time series foundation models (TSFMs) are widely used as generic feature extractors, yet the notion of non-stationarity in their embedding spaces remains poorly understood. Recent work often conflates non-stationarity with distribution shift, blurring distinctions fundamental…

Instance-Adaptive Parametrization for Amortized Variational Inference

arXiv:2604.06796v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Variational autoencoders (VAEs) rely on amortized variational inference to enable efficient posterior approximation, but this efficiency comes at the cost of a shared parametrization, giving rise to the amortization gap. We propose the instance-adaptive variational…

Preventing overfitting in deep learning using differential privacy

arXiv:2604.16334v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The use of Deep Neural Network based systems in the real world is growing. They have achieved state-of-the-art performance on many image, speech and text datasets. They have been shown to be powerful systems that…

Finding Culture-Sensitive Neurons in Vision-Language Models

arXiv:2510.24942v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Despite their impressive performance, vision-language models (VLMs) still struggle on culturally situated inputs. To understand how VLMs process culturally grounded information, we study the presence of culture-sensitive neurons, i.e., neurons whose activations show preferential sensitivity…
