The authors give an efficient non-interactive L-LDP algorithm for SCO achieving excess risk O(sqrt(K/(ε n))) in high privacy and O(sqrt(K/(e^ε n))) in medium privacy, with matching information-theoretic lower bounds for large n.
SCOREBED isolates EIG double intractability in a policy-independent score-matching stage, then trains design policies with a singly intractable gradient estimator, enabling cheap multi-policy selection.
A practical input-to-state stability certificate for Koopman learning control is derived, separating prediction residuals from selected-channel margins and projection residuals.
A multi-scale spectral pipeline using deep learning filament detection automatically identifies 91 oscillatory events in two weeks of 2014 GONG data, recovering known events and finding new ones with periods 20-126 min.
Develops stochastic policies and single-basis-function modification for causal inference on functional treatments, proves asymptotic normality and rate double robustness, and applies to NHANES physical activity and mortality data.
Signed pairwise interaction scores conflate U/R/S; Stochastic Hi-Fi uses interventional masked inference to recover per-feature uniqueness, redundancy, and synergy profiles.
In small-budget RCTs where significance tests decide scale-up, optimal pilot sampling shifts from representative to single homogeneous subpopulation as budget shrinks.
EFE-based planning is formulated as variational free energy minimization with epistemic priors, decomposing into expected plan costs plus a complexity term.
A Bayesian global Fréchet regression method is introduced via a Fréchet Bayes rule that reduces the problem to scalar tasks, allows prior-data interpolation, and remains valid under moment conditions using weak conditional expectations.
Establishes statistical and computational optimality thresholds for common subspace estimation and inference under varying SNR regimes, including an impossibility result for adaptive confidence intervals below strong inference SNR.
Proper EFE-based planning is VFE plus planning and epistemic entropy corrections, realized by channel-reparameterized message passing that captures novelty.
Under clientwise sample-level zCDP, the Fisher information of any fully interactive public federated transcript contracts to a sum of per-client privacy-vs-sample terms, yielding matching minimax rates for mean, linear, and nonparametric regression.
Federated martingale posterior sampling lets clients share data embeddings for central predictive Bayesian sampling, matching centralized performance and improving calibration on MNIST, CIFAR-10, and CIFAR-100.
DCO decouples tuning for efficiency from calibration for coverage in conformal prediction, maintaining marginal guarantees and reducing average set sizes on benchmarks like ImageNet-A and Diabetes.
The PMNLV model extends single-neuron overdispersion to populations via matrix-normal gain priors, showing shared co-variability highest in V1 and declining along the mouse visual hierarchy.
The authors propose an S-MILP framework that optimizes group sequential testing boundaries to achieve faster rejection of the null hypothesis compared to traditional methods while controlling type I and type II errors.
PLACE delivers a closed-form certified classification method for point clouds and graphs based on persistent homology with explicit excess-risk bounds, selection rules, and training-time certificates.
DVISR performs variational inference over symbolic expression trees and constants by training a neural network with the ELBO as reward, recovering true posteriors in simple test cases.
Conditional expectations of latent variables under additive noise admit unique continuous Tweedie representations via a linear functional constructed from the inverse Fourier transform of an explicit tempered distribution.
New theoretical results on estimators and intervals for predicting unseen outcomes in additional samples from discrete distributions, with extensions to grouped incidence data.
Gaussian particles in a linearized Bures-Wasserstein space perform consensus optimization for variational inference and outperform deterministic gradient methods on low-dimensional non-log-concave targets.
Heat-kernel smoothing over weighted points on a compact manifold yields a scale-dependent geometric effective sample size that discounts nearby and duplicate particles.
Introduces autorelevance functions as lag importance measures for time series forecasting using Shapley values and a novel one-step forecast replacement for absent features.
