arXiv:2608.21134v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Deploying vision-language models (VLMs) on mobile devices is challenging due to their significant memory and compute requirements. We present a framework for quantizing VLMs for efficient inference on resource-constrained hardware. Our approach combines a quantization…
arXiv:2608.20445v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Kernel density estimation converts finite samples into probability densities, but its performance depends critically on bandwidth selection. Classical selectors prescribe the sample-to-bandwidth rule analytically or asymptotically, or solve a new optimization for each sample. An…
arXiv:2608.21262v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Many machine-learning systems set a threshold at a quantile of a calibration set: conformal predictors that promise 90% coverage by drawing their cutoff at the calibration set’s 90th percentile, abstention gates that decline to answer…
arXiv:2601.06114v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Multivariate time-series models achieve strong predictive performance in healthcare, industry, energy, and finance, but how they combine cross-variable interactions with temporal dynamics remains unclear. SHapley Additive exPlanations (SHAP) are widely used for interpretation. However, existing…
arXiv:2510.12734v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Variable importance (VI) methods are often used for hypothesis generation, feature selection, and scientific validation. In the standard VI pipeline, an analyst estimates VI for a single predictive model with only the observed features. However,…
arXiv:2608.20497v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Deploying high-accuracy neural networks on resource-constrained edge devices remains challenging, as existing approaches treat training, compression, and hardware synthesis as separate stages, leaving a gap between software-trained models and efficient end-to-end deployment with limited support…
arXiv:2608.20516v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Joint-embedding predictive architectures are selected almost universally by linear probing and effective rank. We report a case where both read healthily while the representation carries zero usable instance information. We repair it, and a second…
arXiv:2608.20572v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) face a dual challenge: vulnerability to adversarial attacks and prohibitive training cost. Adversarial training is effective but expensive, a burden that grows as learning shifts to the energy-constrained edge. This paper…
arXiv:2608.20566v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: AI agents extend large language models from single prompt-response interactions to long-running, goaldirected workflows that issue many model calls, invoke tools, and interact with external environments. These workflows enable tasks such as software repair, data…
