  • Semi-Supervised Learning on Graphs using Graph Neural Networks

    Semi-Supervised Learning on Graphs using Graph Neural Networks arXiv:2602.17115v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Graph neural networks (GNNs) work remarkably well in semi-supervised node regression, yet a rigorous theory explaining when and why they succeed remains lacking. To address this gap, we study an aggregate-and-readout model that encompasses several common message passing architectures: node features are…

  • Semi-Supervised Mixture Models under the Concept of Missing at Radom with Margin Confidence and Aranda Ordaz Function

    Semi-Supervised Mixture Models under the Concept of Missing at Radom with Margin Confidence and Aranda Ordaz Function arXiv:2601.14631v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: This paper presents a semi-supervised learning framework for Gaussian mixture modelling under a Missing at Random (MAR) mechanism. The method explicitly parameterizes the missingness mechanism by modelling the probability of missingness as a…

  • A Kernel Approach for Semi-implicit Variational Inference

    A Kernel Approach for Semi-implicit Variational Inference arXiv:2601.12023v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Semi-implicit variational inference (SIVI) enhances the expressiveness of variational families through hierarchical semi-implicit distributions, but the intractability of their densities makes standard ELBO-based optimization biased. Recent score-matching approaches to SIVI (SIVI-SM) address this issue via a minimax formulation, at the expense of an…

  • Online Partitioned Local Depth for semi-supervised applications

    Online Partitioned Local Depth for semi-supervised applications arXiv:2512.15436v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We introduce an extension of the partitioned local depth (PaLD) algorithm that is adapted to online applications such as semi-supervised prediction. The new algorithm we present, online PaLD, is well-suited to situations where it is a possible to pre-compute a cohesion network from…

  • Bridging Unsupervised and Semi-Supervised Anomaly Detection: A Theoretically-Grounded and Practical Framework with Synthetic Anomalies

    Bridging Unsupervised and Semi-Supervised Anomaly Detection: A Theoretically-Grounded and Practical Framework with Synthetic Anomalies arXiv:2506.13955v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Anomaly detection (AD) is a critical task across domains such as cybersecurity and healthcare. In the unsupervised setting, an effective and theoretically-grounded principle is to train classifiers to distinguish normal data from (synthetic) anomalies. We extend…

  • Continuous Semi-Implicit Models

    Continuous Semi-Implicit Models arXiv:2506.06778v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Semi-implicit distributions have shown great promise in variational inference and generative modeling. Hierarchical semi-implicit models, which stack multiple semi-implicit layers, enhance the expressiveness of semi-implicit distributions and can be used to accelerate diffusion models given pretrained score networks. However, their sequential training often suffers from slow convergence.…
