arXiv:2509.25051v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Bayesian Optimization (BO) is a powerful framework for optimizing noisy, expensive-to-evaluate black-box functions. When the objective exhibits invariances under a group action, exploiting these symmetries can substantially improve BO efficiency. While using maximum similarity across…
arXiv:2002.06768v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: In a recent series of papers it has been established that variants of Gradient Descent/Ascent and Mirror Descent exhibit last iterate convergence in convex-concave zero-sum games. Specifically, cite{DISZ17, LiangS18} show last iterate convergence of the…
arXiv:2509.25126v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We study spectral learning for orthogonally decomposable (odeco) tensors, emphasizing the interplay between statistical limits, optimization geometry, and initialization. Unlike matrices, recovery for odeco tensors does not hinge on eigengaps, yielding improved robustness under noise.…
arXiv:2404.00735v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Tchetgen Tchetgen and Shpitser (2012) introduced an efficient, debiased, and robust influence function-based estimator for the mediation functional, which is the key component in mediation analysis. This estimator relies on the treatment, mediator, and outcome…
arXiv:2501.01376v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Deep neural networks (DNNs) have been widely applied to solve real-world regression problems. However, selecting optimal network structures remains a significant challenge. This study addresses this issue by linking neuron selection in DNNs to knot…
YouTube has settled a lawsuit President Donald Trump filed against the company in 2021, according to The Wall Street Journal. Trump filed sweeping lawsuits against Google-owned YouTube, Meta (then Facebook) and X (then Twitter) after he was suspended from the…
Alphabet settles with Trump instead of fighting lawsuit over January 6 suspension.
Senate Bill 53, the landmark AI transparency bill that has divided AI companies and made headlines for months, is now officially law in California. On Monday, California governor Gavin Newsom signed the “Transparency in Frontier Artificial Intelligence Act,” which was…
Anthropic released Claude Sonnet 4.5 and sets a new benchmark for end-to-end software engineering and real-world computer use. The update also ships concrete product surface changes (Claude Code checkpoints, a native VS Code extension, API memory/context tools) and an Agent…
“We will share more information on the path forward at a later date.”
