Large neural networks are increasingly deployed with 1-4 bit weights and 16- or 32-bit activations, yet their dot products still use one multiplier per element. We show that a length-n dot product with k-bit weight codes can be computed with n+2^k additions and at most 2^k decodes and 2^k multiplications. Each weight c...
We compare two canonical ways to recover hierarchical clustering from an underlying density $f$: the \emph{density cluster tree} given by connected components of superlevel sets $\{f\ge\lambda\}$, and a \emph{spectral hierarchy} obtained by applying single linkage to diffusion distances induced by a Laplacian operator....
Energy-Based Models (EBMs) are a flexible class of generative models that decouple probabilistic modeling from the generation process. This decoupling directly enables compositional generation and inference-time scaling, where sample quality can be refined simply by increasing sampling steps. However, severe challenges...
Covariate-aware time series foundation models (TSFMs) accept a future path for a control variable and return a forecast, inviting what-if queries. The query is interventional; the models are trained on observational data. We determine whether their answers are the conditional slope $\partial E[Y|X]$ or the intervention...

Synthetic rewrites, where a language model rewrites a natural document e.g. into a target style, are now a standard ingredient of pretraining corpora. However, critical aspects of their use remain poorly understood, such as how much compute should be spent rewriting training data and whether a model trained on rewrites...
This article provides an introduction to the mathematical foundations and algorithmic frameworks used to align Large Language Models (LLMs) with human intentions, preferences, and values. We discuss standard alignment techniques, such as fine-tuning (SFT), reinforcement learning with human feedback (RLHF), and direct p...
Partial differential equations (PDEs) are indispensable tools for modeling complex phenomena in physics and engineering. Physics-Informed Neural Networks (PINNs) have emerged as a powerful alternative to traditional numerical solvers by directly incorporating physical constraints into neural network loss functions. Des...
Speculative decoding is a technique that accelerates the inference speed of autoregressive large language models (LLMs) by sampling from a faster, lower quality draft model. Traditionally, a fundamental characteristic of speculative decoding is that it is lossless with respect to the verifier distribution, guaranteeing...
Mixture-of-experts (MoE) transformers, the standard backbone for modern large-scale deep learning, employ conditional computation: only a sparse subset of model weights is used in each forward pass. In MoE transformers, this sparsity arises in the MoE operator, which generalizes the multi-layer perceptron in the classi...
A bug report describes what went wrong, but rarely where the code should change. Existing repository-level localization methods often let language models iteratively decide what code to inspect next, requiring repeated model calls and substantial token usage. We investigate whether these inspection decisions can instea...
Automated research is largely evaluated by benchmark performance, but the value of research rarely reduces to a single score. Humans judge a work's holistic contribution through peer review, which is hard to model because it is noisy and depends on many factors. However, what if, given only the paper, we could predict...
Federated unlearning (FU) aims to remove a designated target client's influence from a trained model without the prohibitive cost of retraining from scratch. Existing methods largely treat unlearning as a post-hoc, stateless operation, overlooking that client influence is path-dependent: contributions made during train...
A machine-learning approach called CheMeleon provides a practical way to develop new drugs or other molecules with much less detailed, expensive experimentation.
