    Adjoint Schr”odinger Bridge Sampler arXiv:2506.22565v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Computational methods for learning to sample from the Boltzmann distribution — where the target distribution is known only up to an unnormalized energy function — have advanced significantly recently. Due to the lack of explicit target samples, however, prior diffusion-based methods, known as diffusion samplers, often…

  • Bayesian Invariance Modeling of Multi-Environment Data

    Bayesian Invariance Modeling of Multi-Environment Data arXiv:2506.22675v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Invariant prediction [Peters et al., 2016] analyzes feature/outcome data from multiple environments to identify invariant features – those with a stable predictive relationship to the outcome. Such features support generalization to new environments and help reveal causal mechanisms. Previous methods have primarily tackled this…

  • CN-SBM: Categorical Block Modelling For Primary and Residual Copy Number Variation

    CN-SBM: Categorical Block Modelling For Primary and Residual Copy Number Variation arXiv:2506.22963v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Cancer is a genetic disorder whose clonal evolution can be monitored by tracking noisy genome-wide copy number variants. We introduce the Copy Number Stochastic Block Model (CN-SBM), a probabilistic framework that jointly clusters samples and genomic regions based on…

  • AICO: Feature Significance Tests for Supervised Learning

    AICO: Feature Significance Tests for Supervised Learning arXiv:2506.23396v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The opacity of many supervised learning algorithms remains a key challenge, hindering scientific discovery and limiting broader deployment — particularly in high-stakes domains. This paper develops model- and distribution-agnostic significance tests to assess the influence of input features in any regression or classification…
