  • Using Local LLMs to Discover High-Performance Algorithms

    Using Local LLMs to Discover High-Performance Algorithms How I used open-source models to explore new frontiers in efficient code generation, using my MacBook and local LLMs. The post Using Local LLMs to Discover High-Performance Algorithms appeared first on Towards Data Science.

  • Provable Recovery of Locally Important Signed Features and Interactions from Random Forest

    Provable Recovery of Locally Important Signed Features and Interactions from Random Forest arXiv:2512.11081v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Feature and Interaction Importance (FII) methods are essential in supervised learning for assessing the relevance of input variables and their interactions in complex prediction models. In many domains, such as personalized medicine, local interpretations for individual predictions are…

  • LxCIM: a new rank-based binary classifier performance metric invariant to local exchange of classes

    LxCIM: a new rank-based binary classifier performance metric invariant to local exchange of classes arXiv:2512.10053v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Binary classification is one of the oldest, most prevalent, and studied problems in machine learning. However, the metrics used to evaluate model performance have received comparatively little attention. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve…

  • CP4SBI: Local Conformal Calibration of Credible Sets in Simulation-Based Inference

    CP4SBI: Local Conformal Calibration of Credible Sets in Simulation-Based Inference arXiv:2508.17077v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Current experimental scientists have been increasingly relying on simulation-based inference (SBI) to invert complex non-linear models with intractable likelihoods. However, posterior approximations obtained with SBI are often miscalibrated, causing credible regions to undercover true parameters. We develop $texttt{CP4SBI}$, a model-agnostic…

  • From Global to Local: A Scalable Benchmark for Local Posterior Sampling

    From Global to Local: A Scalable Benchmark for Local Posterior Sampling arXiv:2507.21449v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Degeneracy is an inherent feature of the loss landscape of neural networks, but it is not well understood how stochastic gradient MCMC (SGMCMC) algorithms interact with this degeneracy. In particular, current global convergence guarantees for common SGMCMC algorithms rely…

  • From Local Interactions to Global Operators: Scalable Gaussian Process Operator for Physical Systems

    From Local Interactions to Global Operators: Scalable Gaussian Process Operator for Physical Systems arXiv:2506.15906v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Operator learning offers a powerful paradigm for solving parametric partial differential equations (PDEs), but scaling probabilistic neural operators such as the recently proposed Gaussian Processes Operators (GPOs) to high-dimensional, data-intensive regimes remains a significant challenge. In this…

  • Sharp Gaussian approximations for Decentralized Federated Learning

    Sharp Gaussian approximations for Decentralized Federated Learning arXiv:2505.08125v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Federated Learning has gained traction in privacy-sensitive collaborative environments, with local SGD emerging as a key optimization method in decentralized settings. While its convergence properties are well-studied, asymptotic statistical guarantees beyond convergence remain limited. In this paper, we present two generalized Gaussian approximation…

  • Local Polynomial Lp-norm Regression

    Local Polynomial Lp-norm Regression arXiv:2504.18695v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The local least squares estimator for a regression curve cannot provide optimal results when non-Gaussian noise is present. Both theoretical and empirical evidence suggests that residuals often exhibit distributional properties different from those of a normal distribution, making it worthwhile to consider estimation based on other…

  • Exporting MLflow Experiments from Restricted HPC Systems

    Exporting MLflow Experiments from Restricted HPC Systems Many High-Performance Computing (HPC) environments, especially in research and educational institutions, restrict communications to outbound TCP connections. Running a simple command-line ping or curl with the MLflow tracking URL on the HPC bash shell to check packet transfer can be successful. However, communication fails and times out while…
