Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly being used in a zero-shot (generative) fashion to assess mental health conditions, yet we have limited knowledge on what factors affect their accuracy.

Iterative self-improvement fine-tunes an autoregressive large language model (LLM) on reward-verified outputs generated by the LLM itself. In contrast to the empirical success of self-improvement, the theoretical foundation of this generative, iterative procedure in a practical,…

Code assistants are increasingly utilized in test-driven software development, yet the theoretical mechanisms behind their environment-interaction strategies remain underexplored.

Training large-scale generative models is resource-intensive and relies heavily on heuristic dataset weighting. We address two fundamental questions: Can we train Large Language Models (LLMs) modularly, combining small, domain-specific experts to match monolithic performance,…

Pretraining and fine-tuning are central stages in modern machine learning systems. In practice, feature learning plays an important role across both stages: deep neural networks learn a broad range of useful features during pretraining and further refine those features during…

We formulate plasticity as target-dependent, finite-horizon reachability under history-dependent dynamics, using standard minimum-energy control theory. An extended state includes parameters and internal variables that affect future updates.

Several recent contributions have evaluated the Poverty of the Stimulus Hypothesis (PoSH) using Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs). The results suggest that ANN-based language models can acquire certain structure-dependent generalizations from limited input without structural…

Scalable methods for networked multi-agent reinforcement learning let each agent plan using only a small neighborhood of the agent graph. This works only when the system is value-local, meaning a perturbation at one agent affects the long-run value at another agent weakly when…

Physics-Informed Neural Networks present a novel approach in SciML that integrates physical laws in the form of partial differential equations directly into the NN through soft constraints in the loss function.

Ptychographic imaging at synchrotron and X-ray free-electron laser sources requires densely overlapping scans, which limits throughput and increases dose; extending coherent diffractive imaging to overlap-free operation on extended samples remains an open problem.

Formal semantics and distributional semantics are distinct approaches to linguistic meaning: the former models meaning as reference via model-theoretic structures; the latter as vectors in high-dimensional spaces shaped by usage.

Prostate cancer (PCa) is one of the most common cancers in men worldwide. Bi-parametric MRI (bp-MRI) and clinical variables are crucial for PCa identification and improving treatment decisions. However, this process is subjective to expert interpretations.
