Conformal prediction provides model-agnostic uncertainty quantification with guaranteed coverage, but conventional methods often yield overly conservative uncertainty sets, particularly in multimodal or heterogeneous settings. This inefficiency arises from two sources: (i) limited expressiveness of the predictive model...
We characterize the geometry of the set of all weight vectors for which a fully-connected linear neural network computes the same linear transformation $W$. Said another way, the set of all sequences of matrices (of predetermined sizes) whose product is $W$. This set of weight vectors is an algebraic variety in the Euc...

Sparse-to-dense motion completion recovers dense mesh motion from sparse vertex displacements. Residual priors trained on one geometry family frequently fail to beat parameter-free harmonic extension off-family. Moreover, cross-family training meets a scaling barrier: residual amplitude varies by more than an order of...

Sampling equilibrium field configurations remains a major computational bottleneck in lattice field theory, motivating the development of generative samplers that can produce independent configurations. Diffusion models are promising for this purpose, but their standard denoising score matching objective requires sampl...

Simulation-based Bayesian inference for Chemical Reaction Networks (CRNs) must simultaneously solve two computationally demanding problems: discriminating between overlapping reaction pathways and estimating reaction rate constants. Classical approaches, such as Sequential Monte Carlo ABC, rely on handcrafted summary s...

Raw image intensities are a poor surrogate for similarity across images in correspondence problems. Further, while auxiliary segmentation labels can provide semantic identification and improve matching, they can assign only coarse identities to fine-grained anatomy and often cover only a subset of structures, particula...
Gauge-equivariant graph neural networks generate ordered products of gauge links through local message passing, but the geometry of these internal structures is not captured by the receptive field alone. We investigate the statistical ensemble of closed lattice walks generated by recursive node- and edge-feature operat...
The rapid advancement of image-to-text extraction systems and large language models (LLMs) poses new challenges for educational assessment by making assignment materials easy to transcribe and solve with minimal human effort. To address this problem, we present AIRRI (Artificial Intelligence Resilient Reading Interface...

Non-clashing teaching minimizes teaching complexity among models satisfying the Goldman--Mathias collusion-avoidance criterion. While the Vapnik--Chervonenkis dimension (VCdim) measures the complexity of learning from samples, non-clashing teaching dimension (NCTD) measures the number of examples required when a teache...
Texture interpolation asks what should lie between two textures. Standard methods typically blend pixels or features at corresponding spatial locations, implicitly assuming that co-located elements should be mixed. For unrelated textures, however, this correspondence is arbitrary: a crack at one location has no particu...
A robot's world model must remember objects that leave the camera's view. FloWM, a learned world model, keeps them in a spatial grid of features that it moves with five built-in velocities. A node memory instead keeps each object's position and velocity as numbers. We compare them in FloWM's own block world, with an or...
Pretraining generalist Earth observation foundation models requires data that combine several sensors, varied temporal sampling and, increasingly, text, yet open datasets rarely provide all three in one consistent, easily accessible form. We introduce MajorTOM:Elliot Pretrain, a collection of 279,166 tiles of 10 km dra...

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.
