This tutorial provides a gentle introduction to kernel density estimation (KDE) and recent advances regarding confidence bands and geometric/topological features. We begin with a discussion of basic properties of KDE: the convergence rate under various metrics, density derivative estimation, and bandwidth selection. Then, we introduce common approaches to the construction of confidence intervals/bands, and we discuss how to handle bias. Next, we talk about recent advances in the inference of geometric and topological features of a density function using KDE. Finally, we illustrate how one can use KDE to estimate a cumulative distribution function and a receiver operating characteristic curve. We provide R implementations related to this tutorial at the end.

  1. Stellar flare morphology with TESS across the main sequence

    astro-ph.SR 2024-12 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    Stellar flare shapes vary systematically with spectral type, with hotter stars showing broader peaks and faster late decay, visible only when averaging thousands of flares.

  2. Adaptable Embeddings Network (AEN)

    cs.LG 2024-11 reject novelty 6.0 of 10

    AEN compares a statement embedding against per-dimension kernel density estimates of condition token embeddings, reporting F1 0.74 on synthetic data with roughly 16x fewer FLOPs than a 3B-parameter LLM.

  3. Linkify: Learning from Interface-Augmented Assembly Graphs

    cs.CV 2026-07 unverdicted novelty 4.0 of 10

    Linkify augments assembly graphs with corrected interface point clouds and trains GATv2 for masked part prediction, outperforming non-graph baselines on Fusion 360 data.

  4. Decision-Driven Geosteering Under Uncertainty: A Unified Framework for Sequential Decision Optimization

    cs.LG 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 4.0 of 10

    A unified framework integrates particle filtering for explicit geological uncertainty representation with value-based reinforcement learning policies for sequential geosteering decisions under uncertainty.
