Scalable approaches to learning neural dynamical systems have placed diffusion, flow matching, and few-step generators in flow maps at the forefront of generative modeling. Such state-of-the-art models have limited access to explicit model densities despite evolving from classical generative modeling approaches that le...

We study personalized LLM routing, where a router selects among heterogeneous models with different costs and capabilities. The router must minimize cumulative inference cost while ensuring reliable realized response quality, even though user preferences are unknown and must be learned from feedback during deployment....

Forecasting an unresolved event requires finding relevant evidence and deciding how strongly it supports each outcome. Yet outcome-based training of Large Language Model (LLM) forecasters often begins with preassembled evidence at a single prediction date, leaving evidence acquisition outside the learning loop. We intr...

Human-AI interactions are becoming a rich source of data for improving AI systems: while many model responses are already satisfactory, others expose failures that could become valuable supervision if identified and corrected. We study this setting through the notion of an editor: a more capable evaluation process that...

Recent work suggests that switching optimizers between pretraining and subsequent training stages incurs a performance cost, but systematic investigation of this phenomenon is lacking. We study the mismatch between AdamW and Muon optimizers by pretraining 1.2B Llama-3 models from scratch while varying the proportion of...

Preprocessing is an under-measured reliability risk in clinical prediction: a model can keep a similar AUROC and still change who receives an alert. Imputation quality is commonly evaluated using reconstruction error or aggregate discrimination, neither of which directly measures agreement on which patients are flagged...

Most freeway agencies have fixed detectors on only part of their network but need speeds for all of it. This paper compares methods for estimating current and next-hour speeds on every link from such sparse detectors, using historical probe data for training. The test network is the Dallas--Fort Worth freeway system: 4...
An exact mean-square stability criterion in any dimension is derived, which reveals that the inner batch size determines whether increasing the number of local steps eventually stabilizes or destabilizes the outer iteration.

The training loss of binary and ternary neural networks, expanded as a multilinear polynomial over the discrete weights, is structurally equivalent to the energy of a hierarchical high-order Ising model. We exploit this equivalence to apply Ising solvers to discrete-weight network training, while accounting for a funda...

Estimating missing-mass and unseen-species counts from finite samples relies heavily on rare-event occupancy statistics, particularly singletons. In small-sample regimes, these statistics can be highly variable, making classical estimators sensitive to sampling fluctuations and potentially unreliable. We propose a frag...

This work evaluates how accurately large Language Models predict the impact of self-generated ML experiment ideas before these are put into training runs to show that current LLMs have useful but limited intuition about which ML ideas will work.

It is shown that the onset of entropy degradation separates the two main GNN failure modes: structural mismatch under heterophily, which appears from the earliest layers even in shallow models, and excessive-depth oversmoothing, which emerges only as propagation depth increases.
A machine-learning approach called CheMeleon provides a practical way to develop new drugs or other molecules with much less detailed, expensive experimentation.
Research Manager Mike Walker reflects on a career spanning hacker culture, cybersecurity, and AI, sharing lessons about trust, teamwork, leadership, and why solving difficult problems requires curiosity, judgment, agility—and an understanding of the rules. The post Learn the rules: The hacker mindset appeared first on Microsoft Research.
