Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) architectures have recently gained popularity in enabling efficient scaling of large language models. However, we uncover a fundamental tension: while MoEs are designed for selective expert activation, production serving requires request batching, which forces the activation of all experts and negates MoE's efficiency benefits during the decode phase. We present Lynx, a system that enables efficient MoE inference through dynamic, batch-aware expert selection. Our key insight is that expert importance varies significantly across tokens and inference phases, creating opportunities for runtime optimization. Lynx leverages this insight through a lightweight framework that dynamically reduces active experts while preserving model accuracy. Our evaluations show that Lynx achieves up to 1.55x reduction in inference latency while maintaining negligible accuracy loss from baseline model across complex code generation and mathematical reasoning tasks.

Electrical Engineering and Systems Science - Systems and Control - Abstract
The operation efficiency of the electric transportation, energy storage, and grids mainly depends on the fundamental characteristics of the employed batteries. Fundamental variables like voltage, current, temperature, and estimated parameters, like the State of Charge (SoC) of the battery pack, influence the functionality of the system. This motivates the implementation of a Battery Management System (BMS), critical for managing and maintaining the health, safety, and performance of a battery pack. This is ensured by measuring parameters like temperature, cell voltage, and pack current. It also involves monitoring insulation levels and fire hazards, while assessing the prevailing useful life of the batteries and estimating the SoC and State of Health (SoH). Additionally, the system manages and controls key activities like cell balancing and charge/discharge processes. Thus functioning of the battery can be optimised, by guaranteeing the vital parameters to be well within the prescribed range. This article discusses the several cell balancing schemes, and focuses on the intricacies of cell balancing algorithms and optimisation methods for cell balancing. We begin surveying recent cell balancing algorithms and then provide selection guidelines taking into account their advantages, disadvantages, and applications. Finally, we discuss various optimization algorithms and outline the essential parameters involved in the cell balancing process., Comment: 33 pages, 8 figures, 14 tables, and 13 equations

Quantum Physics - Abstract
This study explores robust entangled states described using the framework of discrete Wigner functions. Notably, these states are known to outperform the Bell state in measures of entanglement in the presence of non-Markovian noise. Our study focuses on methods for preparing these states using quantum circuits that can be implemented on superconducting hardware and testing the efficacy of these methods on IBM's quantum device. We present quantum circuits for state preparation and validate them through tomographic reconstruction on the IBM \emph{ibm\_brisbane} device. We propose a teleportation scheme that leverages these entangled states as a resource. We believe that these entangled states have the potential to be used in place of the traditional Bell state in scenarios where non-Markovian errors are prevalent.

Computer Science - Robotics - Abstract
Path planning in narrow passages is a challenging problem in various applications. Traditional planning algorithms often face challenges in complex environments like mazes and traps, where narrow entrances require special orientation control for successful navigation. In this work, we present a novel approach that combines superquadrics (SQ) representation and Voronoi diagrams to solve the narrow passage problem in both 2D and 3D environment. Our method utilizes the SQ formulation to expand obstacles, eliminating impassable passages, while Voronoi hyperplane ensures maximum clearance path. Additionally, the hyperplane provides a natural reference for robot orientation, aligning its long axis with the passage direction. We validate our framework through a 2D object retrieval task and 3D drone simulation, demonstrating that our approach outperforms classical planners and a cutting-edge drone planner by ensuring passable trajectories with maximum clearance.

Computer Science - Computation and Language - Abstract
The development of large language models (LLMs) has expanded to multi-modal systems capable of processing text, images, and speech within a unified framework. Training these models demands significantly larger datasets and computational resources compared to text-only LLMs. To address the scaling challenges, we introduce Mixture-of-Transformers (MoT), a sparse multi-modal transformer architecture that significantly reduces pretraining computational costs. MoT decouples non-embedding parameters of the model by modality -- including feed-forward networks, attention matrices, and layer normalization -- enabling modality-specific processing with global self-attention over the full input sequence. We evaluate MoT across multiple settings and model scales. In the Chameleon 7B setting (autoregressive text-and-image generation), MoT matches the dense baseline's performance using only 55.8\% of the FLOPs. When extended to include speech, MoT reaches speech performance comparable to the dense baseline with only 37.2\% of the FLOPs. In the Transfusion setting, where text and image are trained with different objectives, a 7B MoT model matches the image modality performance of the dense baseline with one third of the FLOPs, and a 760M MoT model outperforms a 1.4B dense baseline across key image generation metrics. System profiling further highlights MoT's practical benefits, achieving dense baseline image quality in 47.2\% of the wall-clock time and text quality in 75.6\% of the wall-clock time (measured on AWS p4de.24xlarge instances with NVIDIA A100 GPUs).

Computer Science - Social and Information Networks ,Computer Science - Machine Learning - Abstract
It is largely agreed that social network links are formed due to either homophily or social influence. Inspired by this, we aim at understanding the generation of links via providing a novel embedding-based graph formation model. Different from existing graph representation learning, where link generation probabilities are defined as a simple function of the corresponding node embeddings, we model the link generation as a mixture model of the two factors. In addition, we model the homophily factor in spherical space and the influence factor in hyperbolic space to accommodate the fact that (1) homophily results in cycles and (2) influence results in hierarchies in networks. We also design a special projection to align these two spaces. We call this model Non-Euclidean Mixture Model, i.e., NMM. We further integrate NMM with our non-Euclidean graph variational autoencoder (VAE) framework, NMM-GNN. NMM-GNN learns embeddings through a unified framework which uses non-Euclidean GNN encoders, non-Euclidean Gaussian priors, a non-Euclidean decoder, and a novel space unification loss component to unify distinct non-Euclidean geometric spaces. Experiments on public datasets show NMM-GNN significantly outperforms state-of-the-art baselines on social network generation and classification tasks, demonstrating its ability to better explain how the social network is formed.

Astrophysics - Astrophysics of Galaxies - Abstract
We present a comprehensive analysis of the observed Stellar-to-Halo mass relationship (SHMR) spanning redshifts from 0.2 to 4.5. This was enabled through galaxy clustering and abundance measurements from two large (effective area ~ 1.61 deg^2) and homogeneously prepared photometric catalogs - UltraVISTA ultra-deep stripes DR3 (COSMOS) and FENIKS v1 (UDS). To translate these measurements into the SHMR, we introduce a novel halo occupation distribution (HOD) fitting approach (``smooth-$z$'') whereby HOD parameters between neighboring z-bins are connected via physically motivated continuity (smoothing) priors. As a result, the high constraining power at z <~ 2, due to a much wider dynamical range in stellar mass (~ 3 dex), helps constrain the SHMR at z >~ 2, where that range shrinks down to <~ 1 dex. We find that the halo mass is tightly coupled to star formation: the halo mass with peak integrated star-forming efficiency (SFE), M_h^peak remains constant within ~ 10^12.2 - 10^12.4 Msolar throughout the redshifts probed. Furthermore, we show that if we had relied on COSMOS alone (as opposed to COSMOS+UDS), as has been done by many preceding studies, M_h^peak would be systematically lower by up to ~0.15 dex at z < 1.5, highlighting the importance of mitigating cosmic variance. Finally, for the first time, we show how the SFE evolves with redshift as halos grow in mass along their progenitor merger trees, instead of at fixed halo masses., Comment: Submitted to ApJ. 36 pages, 18 figures.

Diabetic Retinopathy DR is a severe complication of diabetes. Damaged or abnormal blood vessels can cause loss of vision. The need for massive screening of a large population of diabetic patients has generated an interest in a computer-aided fully automatic diagnosis of DR. In the realm of Deep learning frameworks, particularly convolutional neural networks CNNs, have shown great interest and promise in detecting DR by analyzing retinal images. However, several challenges have been faced in the application of deep learning in this domain. High-quality, annotated datasets are scarce, and the variations in image quality and class imbalances pose significant hurdles in developing a dependable model. In this paper, we demonstrate the proficiency of two Convolutional Neural Networks CNNs based models, UNET and Stacked UNET utilizing the APTOS Asia Pacific Tele-Ophthalmology Society Dataset. This system achieves an accuracy of 92.81% for the UNET and 93.32% for the stacked UNET architecture. The architecture classifies the images into five categories ranging from 0 to 4, where 0 is no DR and 4 is proliferative DR.

Mathematics - Probability ,60J80, 90B15, 05C80 - Abstract
A sequence of trees $(\mathcal{T}_{n})_{n \in \mathbb{N}}$ contains a \emph{persistent hub}, or displays \emph{degree centrality}, if there is a fixed node of maximal degree for all sufficiently large $n \in \mathbb{N}$. We derive sufficient criteria for the emergence of a persistent hub in genealogical trees associated with Crump-Mode-Jagers branching processes with independent waiting times between births of individuals, and sufficient criteria for the non-emergence of a persistent hub. We also derive criteria for uniqueness of these persistent hubs. As an application, we improve results in the literature concerning the emergence of unique persistent hubs in generalised preferential attachment trees, in particular, allowing for cases where there may not be a \emph{Malthusian parameter} associated with the process. The approach we use is mostly self-contained, and does not rely on prior results about Crump-Mode-Jagers branching processes., Comment: 27 pages, 2 figures

Computer Science - Machine Learning ,Computer Science - Artificial Intelligence - Abstract
Sequential learning in deep models often suffers from challenges such as catastrophic forgetting and loss of plasticity, largely due to the permutation dependence of gradient-based algorithms, where the order of training data impacts the learning outcome. In this work, we introduce a novel permutation-invariant learning framework based on high-dimensional particle filters. We theoretically demonstrate that particle filters are invariant to the sequential ordering of training minibatches or tasks, offering a principled solution to mitigate catastrophic forgetting and loss-of-plasticity. We develop an efficient particle filter for optimizing high-dimensional models, combining the strengths of Bayesian methods with gradient-based optimization. Through extensive experiments on continual supervised and reinforcement learning benchmarks, including SplitMNIST, SplitCIFAR100, and ProcGen, we empirically show that our method consistently improves performance, while reducing variance compared to standard baselines., Comment: Website: https://aneeshers.github.io/PermutationInvariantLearning/

Astrophysics - Astrophysics of Galaxies - Abstract
We present a new analytical model for the attenuation to Epoch of Reionization (EoR) galaxies by proximate neutral hydrogen gas. Many galaxy spectra in the EoR taken by JWST have shown a flux deficit at wavelengths just redward of the Lyman break, and this has been regarded as resulting from Ly$\alpha$ damping wing absorption by the increasing amount of neutral hydrogen in the line-of-sight. However, previous attenuation models for the intergalactic medium (IGM) commonly used in photometric redshift template-fitting codes assume that the Lyman break is rather sharp, which leads to systematic overestimation of photometric redshifts at $z>7$. In this letter, we build and empirically calibrate a new attenuation model that takes the increased Ly$\alpha$ damping wing absorption into account. Our model consists of the canonical IGM absorption and an additional absorption component due to dense neutral hydrogen gas clouds proximate to the galaxy, and we derive the redshift evolution of HI column density of the proximate clouds by calibrating the model using CANUCS JWST observations. The resulting total transmission curve resolves the photometric redshift bias at $z>7$, an improvement that is robust to choice of template-fitting code, template set, and photometric catalog used. The new attenuation model can be easily implemented in existing template-fitting codes, and significantly improves the photometric redshift performance in the EoR., Comment: Submitted to ApJL. Comments are welcome. The new attenuation model has been implemented in the latest version EAzY (v0.8 or later) and Phosphoros (v2.0.2 or later)

What are the signatures of the onset of catastrophe? Here we present the rich system physics characterizing the stochasticity driven transition from homeostasis to breakdown in an experimentally motivated and analytically tractable minimal model. Recent high-precision experiments on individual bacterial cells, growing and dividing repeatedly in a variety of environments, have revealed a previously unknown intergenerational scaling law which not only uniquely determines the stochastic map governing homeostasis, but also, as we show here, offers quantitative insights into the transition from the "conspiracy principle" regime (homeostasis) to the "catastrophe principle" regime and then to system breakdown. These transitions occur as a single parameter is tuned; we predict the precise values of the parameter which mark the characteristic progression of the transition. Emergence of asymptotically scale invariant distributions with quantifiable power law tails and the reverse monotonicity of the conditional exceedance distribution further characterize the transition to catastrophe.

Astrophysics - High Energy Astrophysical Phenomena - Abstract
We present the results of a search for gravitational-wave transients associated with core-collapse supernova SN 2023ixf, which was observed in the galaxy Messier 101 via optical emission on 2023 May 19th, during the LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA 15th Engineering Run. We define a five-day on-source window during which an accompanying gravitational-wave signal may have occurred. No gravitational waves have been identified in data when at least two gravitational-wave observatories were operating, which covered $\sim 14\%$ of this five-day window. We report the search detection efficiency for various possible gravitational-wave emission models. Considering the distance to M101 (6.7 Mpc), we derive constraints on the gravitational-wave emission mechanism of core-collapse supernovae across a broad frequency spectrum, ranging from 50 Hz to 2 kHz where we assume the GW emission occurred when coincident data are available in the on-source window. Considering an ellipsoid model for a rotating proto-neutron star, our search is sensitive to gravitational-wave energy $1 \times 10^{-5} M_{\odot} c^2$ and luminosity $4 \times 10^{-5} M_{\odot} c^2/\text{s}$ for a source emitting at 50 Hz. These constraints are around an order of magnitude more stringent than those obtained so far with gravitational-wave data. The constraint on the ellipticity of the proto-neutron star that is formed is as low as $1.04$, at frequencies above $1200$ Hz, surpassing results from SN 2019ejj., Comment: Main paper: 6 pages, 4 figures and 1 table.

Astrophysics - Astrophysics of Galaxies - Abstract
The UltraViolet imaging of the Cosmic Assembly Near-infrared Deep Extragalactic Legacy Survey Fields (UVCANDELS) program provides deep HST F275W and F435W imaging over four CANDELS fields (GOODS-N, GOODS-S, COSMOS, and EGS). We combine this newly acquired UV imaging with existing HST imaging from CANDELS as well as existing ancillary data to obtain robust photometric redshifts and reliable estimates for galaxy physical properties for over 150,000 galaxies in the $\sim$430 arcmin$^2$ UVCANDELS area. Here, we leverage the power of the new UV photometry to not only improve the photometric redshift measurements in these fields, but also constrain the full redshift probability distribution combining multiple redshift fitting tools. Furthermore, using the full UV-to-IR photometric dataset, we measure the galaxy physical properties by fitting templates from population synthesis models with two different parameterizations (flexible and fixed-form) of the star-formation histories (SFHs). Compared to the flexible SFH parametrization, we find that the fixed-form SFHs systematically underestimate the galaxy stellar masses, both at the low- ($\lesssim10^9 M_\odot$) and high- ($\gtrsim10^{10} M_\odot$) mass end, by as much as $\sim0.5$ dex. This underestimation is primarily due the limited ability of fixed-form SFH parameterization to simultaneously capture the chaotic nature of star-formation in these galaxies., Comment: 22 pages, 6 figures; accepted to ApJS; catalogs available via MAST

Mathematics - Analysis of PDEs - Abstract
We consider a semilinear Schr\"odinger equation, driven by the power degenerate second order differential operator $\nabla\cdot (|x|^{2a} \nabla), a\in (0,1)$. We construct the solitary waves, in the sharp range of parameters, as minimizers of the Caffarelli-Kohn-Nirenberg's inequality. Depending on the parameter $a$ and the nonlinearity, we establish a number of properties, such as positivity, smoothness (away from the origin) and almost exponential decay. Then, and as a consequence of our variational constrcution, we completely characterize the spectral stability of the said solitons. We pose some natural conjectures, which are still open -- such as the radiality of the ground states, the non-degeneracy and most importantly uniqueness.

We explore and extend the application of homological algebra to describe quantum entanglement, initiated in arXiv:1901.02011, focusing on the Hodge-theoretic structure of entanglement cohomology in finite-dimensional quantum systems. We construct analogues of the Hodge star operator, inner product, codifferential, and Laplacian for entanglement $k$-forms. We also prove that such $k$-forms obey versions of the Hodge isomorphism theorem and Hodge decomposition, and that they exhibit Hodge duality. As a corollary, we conclude that the dimensions of the $k$-th and $(n-k)$-th cohomologies coincide for entanglement in $n$-partite pure states, which explains a symmetry property ("Poincare duality") of the associated Poincare polynomials., Comment: 55 pages

Large Language Models (LLMs) often generate incorrect or outdated information, especially in low-resource settings or when dealing with private data. To address this, Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) uses external knowledge bases (KBs), but these can also suffer from inaccuracies. We introduce STACKFEED, a novel Structured Textual Actor-Critic Knowledge base editing with FEEDback approach that iteratively refines the KB based on expert feedback using a multi-actor, centralized critic reinforcement learning framework. Each document is assigned to an actor, modeled as a ReACT agent, which performs structured edits based on document-specific targeted instructions from a centralized critic. Experimental results show that STACKFEED significantly improves KB quality and RAG system performance, enhancing accuracy by up to 8% over baselines.

Astrophysics - High Energy Astrophysical Phenomena - Abstract
The magnetar SGR 1935+2154 is the only known Galactic source of fast radio bursts (FRBs). FRBs from SGR 1935+2154 were first detected by CHIME/FRB and STARE2 in 2020 April, after the conclusion of the LIGO, Virgo, and KAGRA Collaborations' O3 observing run. Here we analyze four periods of gravitational wave (GW) data from the GEO600 detector coincident with four periods of FRB activity detected by CHIME/FRB, as well as X-ray glitches and X-ray bursts detected by NICER and NuSTAR close to the time of one of the FRBs. We do not detect any significant GW emission from any of the events. Instead, using a short-duration GW search (for bursts $\leq$ 1 s) we derive 50\% (90\%) upper limits of $10^{48}$ ($10^{49}$) erg for GWs at 300 Hz and $10^{49}$ ($10^{50}$) erg at 2 kHz, and constrain the GW-to-radio energy ratio to $\leq 10^{14} - 10^{16}$. We also derive upper limits from a long-duration search for bursts with durations between 1 and 10 s. These represent the strictest upper limits on concurrent GW emission from FRBs., Comment: 15 pages of text including references, 4 figures, 5 tables

Astrophysics - Astrophysics of Galaxies - Abstract
Milky Way analogues (MWAs) have long been studied by astronomers to place our Galaxy within an extragalactic context. With the power of cosmological simulations, we are now able to not only characterize MWAs today, but also watch as they evolve through cosmic time. We use the EAGLE and IllustrisTNG simulations to study a group of MWAs defined by their stellar mass (SM) and star formation rate (SFR). We trace these galaxies back along their evolution to investigate the star forming and mass assembly tracks taken by a galaxy to become a MWA today in light of these chosen parameters. We also take mock-observations of "MWAs" at $z>0$ and trace them forwards in time to determine if galaxies that looked similar to the Milky Way earlier in their evolution still look like the Milky Way today, thus quantifying a selection efficiency which could inform future observational studies of MWAs. We find that most galaxies with Milky Way-SM follow a similar evolution regardless of present-day SFR, although MWAs in IllustrisTNG generally have not quenched, leading to star formation histories that produce "too-blue" galaxies today. Additionally, we find contamination by MWA-"imposters" in our mock-observations, with low selection efficiency at high redshift due to the tight constraint requiring convergence to the Milky Way's present-day SFR. Our work suggests present-day SM may suffice as a stand-alone selection parameter and helps to clarify how MWAs should be selected, and thus will be an important reference for future studies of both simulated and observed MWAs., Comment: 31 pages, 15 figures.

Effective air pollution management in urban areas relies on both monitoring and mitigation strategies, yet high costs often limit sensor networks to a few key pollution hotspots. In this paper, we show that New Delhi's public sensor network is insufficient for identifying all pollution hotspots. To address this, we augmented the city's network with 28 low-cost sensors, monitoring PM 2.5 concentrations over 30 months (May 2018 to November 2020). Our analysis uncovered 189 additional hotspots, supplementing the 660 already detected by the government network. We observed that Space-Time Kriging with limited but accurate sensor data provides a more robust and generalizable approach for identifying these hotspots, as compared to deep learning models that require large amounts of fine-grained multi-modal data (emissions inventory, meteorology, etc.) which was not reliably, frequently and accurately available in the New Delhi context. Using Space-Time Kriging, we achieved 98% precision and 95.4% recall in detecting hotspots with 50% sensor failure. Furthermore, this method proved effective in predicting hotspots in areas without sensors, achieving 95.3% precision and 88.5% recall in the case of 50% missing sensors. Our findings revealed that a significant portion of New Delhi's population, around 23 million people, was exposed to pollution hotspots for at least half of the study period. We also identified areas beyond the reach of the public sensor network that should be prioritized for pollution control. These results highlight the need for more comprehensive monitoring networks and suggest Space-Time Kriging as a viable solution for cities facing similar resource constraints.

Computer Science - Computation and Language ,Computer Science - Hardware Architecture - Abstract
Open-source Electronic Design Automation (EDA) tools are rapidly transforming chip design by addressing key barriers of commercial EDA tools such as complexity, costs, and access. Recent advancements in Large Language Models (LLMs) have further enhanced efficiency in chip design by providing user assistance across a range of tasks like setup, decision-making, and flow automation. This paper introduces ORAssistant, a conversational assistant for OpenROAD, based on Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG). ORAssistant aims to improve the user experience for the OpenROAD flow, from RTL-GDSII by providing context-specific responses to common user queries, including installation, command usage, flow setup, and execution, in prose format. Currently, ORAssistant integrates OpenROAD, OpenROAD-flow-scripts, Yosys, OpenSTA, and KLayout. The data model is built from publicly available documentation and GitHub resources. The proposed architecture is scalable, supporting extensions to other open-source tools, operating modes, and LLM models. We use Google Gemini as the base LLM model to build and test ORAssistant. Early evaluation results of the RAG-based model show notable improvements in performance and accuracy compared to non-fine-tuned LLMs.

Computer Science - Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition - Abstract
3D object detection is fundamentally important for various emerging applications, including autonomous driving and robotics. A key requirement for training an accurate 3D object detector is the availability of a large amount of LiDAR-based point cloud data. Unfortunately, labeling point cloud data is extremely challenging, as accurate 3D bounding boxes and semantic labels are required for each potential object. This paper proposes a unified active 3D object detection framework, for greatly reducing the labeling cost of training 3D object detectors. Our framework is based on a novel formulation of submodular optimization, specifically tailored to the problem of active 3D object detection. In particular, we address two fundamental challenges associated with active 3D object detection: data imbalance and the need to cover the distribution of the data, including LiDAR-based point cloud data of varying difficulty levels. Extensive experiments demonstrate that our method achieves state-of-the-art performance with high computational efficiency compared to existing active learning methods.

Red teaming assesses how large language models (LLMs) can produce content that violates norms, policies, and rules set during their safety training. However, most existing automated methods in the literature are not representative of the way humans tend to interact with AI models. Common users of AI models may not have advanced knowledge of adversarial machine learning methods or access to model internals, and they do not spend a lot of time crafting a single highly effective adversarial prompt. Instead, they are likely to make use of techniques commonly shared online and exploit the multiturn conversational nature of LLMs. While manual testing addresses this gap, it is an inefficient and often expensive process. To address these limitations, we introduce the Generative Offensive Agent Tester (GOAT), an automated agentic red teaming system that simulates plain language adversarial conversations while leveraging multiple adversarial prompting techniques to identify vulnerabilities in LLMs. We instantiate GOAT with 7 red teaming attacks by prompting a general-purpose model in a way that encourages reasoning through the choices of methods available, the current target model's response, and the next steps. Our approach is designed to be extensible and efficient, allowing human testers to focus on exploring new areas of risk while automation covers the scaled adversarial stress-testing of known risk territory. We present the design and evaluation of GOAT, demonstrating its effectiveness in identifying vulnerabilities in state-of-the-art LLMs, with an ASR@10 of 97% against Llama 3.1 and 88% against GPT-4 on the JailbreakBench dataset.

Large language models (LLMs) have revolutionized how we interact with technology, but their personalization to individual user preferences remains a significant challenge, particularly in on-device applications. Traditional methods often depend heavily on labeled datasets and can be resource-intensive. To address these issues, we present Adaptive Self-Supervised Learning Strategies (ASLS), which utilizes self-supervised learning techniques to personalize LLMs dynamically. The framework comprises a user profiling layer for collecting interaction data and a neural adaptation layer for real-time model fine-tuning. This innovative approach enables continuous learning from user feedback, allowing the model to generate responses that align closely with user-specific contexts. The adaptive mechanisms of ASLS minimize computational demands and enhance personalization efficiency. Experimental results across various user scenarios illustrate the superior performance of ASLS in boosting user engagement and satisfaction, highlighting its potential to redefine LLMs as highly responsive and context-aware systems on-device., Comment: First ASLS

Consider a discrete time Markov process $X^\varepsilon$ on $\mathbb R^d$ that makes a deterministic jump prescribed by a map $\varphi \colon \mathbb R^d \to \mathbb R^d$, and then takes a small Gaussian step of variance $\varepsilon^2$. For certain chaotic maps $\varphi$, the effective diffusivity of $X^\varepsilon$ may be bounded away from $0$ as $\varepsilon \to 0$. This is known as residual diffusivity, and in this paper we prove residual diffusivity occurs for a class of maps $\varphi$ obtained from piecewise affine expanding Bernoulli maps., Comment: 24 pages, 2 figures

Existing subset selection methods for efficient learning predominantly employ discrete combinatorial and model-specific approaches which lack generalizability. For an unseen architecture, one cannot use the subset chosen for a different model. To tackle this problem, we propose $\texttt{SubSelNet}$, a trainable subset selection framework, that generalizes across architectures. Here, we first introduce an attention-based neural gadget that leverages the graph structure of architectures and acts as a surrogate to trained deep neural networks for quick model prediction. Then, we use these predictions to build subset samplers. This naturally provides us two variants of $\texttt{SubSelNet}$. The first variant is transductive (called as Transductive-$\texttt{SubSelNet}$) which computes the subset separately for each model by solving a small optimization problem. Such an optimization is still super fast, thanks to the replacement of explicit model training by the model approximator. The second variant is inductive (called as Inductive-$\texttt{SubSelNet}$) which computes the subset using a trained subset selector, without any optimization. Our experiments show that our model outperforms several methods across several real datasets, Comment: Published at NeurIPS 2023

Imitation learning has proven to be a powerful tool for training complex visuomotor policies. However, current methods often require hundreds to thousands of expert demonstrations to handle high-dimensional visual observations. A key reason for this poor data efficiency is that visual representations are predominantly either pretrained on out-of-domain data or trained directly through a behavior cloning objective. In this work, we present DynaMo, a new in-domain, self-supervised method for learning visual representations. Given a set of expert demonstrations, we jointly learn a latent inverse dynamics model and a forward dynamics model over a sequence of image embeddings, predicting the next frame in latent space, without augmentations, contrastive sampling, or access to ground truth actions. Importantly, DynaMo does not require any out-of-domain data such as Internet datasets or cross-embodied datasets. On a suite of six simulated and real environments, we show that representations learned with DynaMo significantly improve downstream imitation learning performance over prior self-supervised learning objectives, and pretrained representations. Gains from using DynaMo hold across policy classes such as Behavior Transformer, Diffusion Policy, MLP, and nearest neighbors. Finally, we ablate over key components of DynaMo and measure its impact on downstream policy performance. Robot videos are best viewed at https://dynamo-ssl.github.io

Securing HPC has a unique threat model. Untrusted, malicious code exploiting the concentrated computing power may exert an outsized impact on the shared, open-networked environment in HPC, unlike well-isolated VM tenants in public clouds. Therefore, preempting attacks targeting supercomputing systems before damage remains the top security priority. The main challenge is that noisy attack attempts and unreliable alerts often mask \emph{real attacks}, causing permanent damages such as system integrity violations and data breaches. This paper describes a security testbed embedded in live traffic of a supercomputer at the National Center for Supercomputing Applications (NCSA). The objective is to demonstrate attack \textit{preemption}, i.e., stopping system compromise and data breaches at petascale supercomputers. Deployment of our testbed at NCSA enables the following key contributions: 1) Insights from characterizing unique \textit{attack patterns} found in real security logs of more than 200 security incidents curated in the past two decades at NCSA. 2) Deployment of an attack visualization tool to illustrate the challenges of identifying real attacks in HPC environments and to support security operators in interactive attack analyses. 3) Demonstrate the utility of the testbed by running novel models, such as Factor-Graph-based models, to preempt a real-world ransomware family., Comment: Accepted to the Third Annual Workshop on Cyber Security in High-Performance Computing (S-HPC 24)

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology ,High Energy Physics - Experiment - Abstract
Kaon physics is at an important experimental juncture with respect to the ongoing measurements of several observables. This work will build on the existing status by formulating different phenomenological analyses corresponding to different paths that may lie ahead. Beginning with the golden channels, $K^\rightarrow\pi^\nu\bar\nu$ and $K_L\rightarrow\pi^0\nu\bar\nu$, the paper will eventually cast the spotlight on the importance of a precise measurement of BR($K_L\rightarrow\pi^0\ell\bar\ell$). The phenomenological analyses involve sequentially adding kaon physics observables at the projected final precision of their respective measurements to the global fit. More specifically, we consider three different scenarios with different sets of observables assumed at their final precisions. Beginning with BR($K^\rightarrow\pi^\nu\bar\nu$) and BR($K_L\rightarrow\pi^0\nu\bar\nu$), we sequentially add BR($K_L\rightarrow\pi^0 e\bar e$) and BR($K_L\rightarrow\pi^0 \mu\bar\mu$) to the global fit. The evolution of the result from one scenario to the next makes a strong case for the consideration of future measurement of R($K_L\rightarrow\pi^0\ell\bar\ell$)., Comment: 14 pages, 4 figures, 1 table

We analyze $\textit{JWST}$ CEERS NIRCam images to present {the first estimate} of the observed fraction and properties of bars out to $z \sim 4$. We analyze a sample of 1770 galaxies with stellar mass $M_\star > 10^{10} M_\odot$ at $0.5 \leq z \leq 4$ and identify barred galaxies via ellipse fits and visual classification of both F200W and F444W images. Our results apply mainly to bars with projected semi-major axis $a_{\rm bar}$ $> 1.5 $ kpc ($\sim$ 2 $\times$ PSF in F200W images) that can be robustly traced by ellipse fits. For such bars, the {observed} bar fraction at $z\sim$ 2-4 is low ($\lesssim 10\%$), and they appear to be emerging at least as early as $z\sim 4$ when the Universe was $\sim$ 13\% of its present age. At $z\sim$ 2-4, compared to our results, TNG50 simulations {predict} a significantly larger bar fraction due to a large population of small bars with $a_{\rm bar}$ $< 1.5$ kpc {that we cannot robustly detect}. If such a population exists, the true bar fraction may be significantly higher than our results. At $z \ge 1.5$, many barred galaxies show nearby neighbors, suggesting bars may be tidally triggered. {From $z \sim 4$ to $z \sim 0.5$, the observed bar fraction, average projected bar length, and projected bar strength rise.} Our results highlight the early emergence and evolution of barred galaxies and the rising importance of bar-driven secular evolution from $z \sim$4 to today., Comment: 25 pages, 16 figures, submitted to ApJ, Comments are welcome

Computer Science - Machine Learning ,Statistics - Machine Learning - Abstract
Modular neural networks outperform nonmodular neural networks on tasks ranging from visual question answering to robotics. These performance improvements are thought to be due to modular networks' superior ability to model the compositional and combinatorial structure of real-world problems. However, a theoretical explanation of how modularity improves generalizability, and how to leverage task modularity while training networks remains elusive. Using recent theoretical progress in explaining neural network generalization, we investigate how the amount of training data required to generalize on a task varies with the intrinsic dimensionality of a task's input. We show theoretically that when applied to modularly structured tasks, while nonmodular networks require an exponential number of samples with task dimensionality, modular networks' sample complexity is independent of task dimensionality: modular networks can generalize in high dimensions. We then develop a novel learning rule for modular networks to exploit this advantage and empirically show the improved generalization of the rule, both in- and out-of-distribution, on high-dimensional, modular tasks.

However, observational studies of patients with neovascular-related SMH and those treated with intravitreal anti-vascular growth factor (anti-VEGF) therapy have shown many favorable visual acuity outcomes. We report two cases of neovascular-related SMH with ten or more years of follow-up. The first case was an 83-year old female with a history of nonexudative age-related macular degeneration in both eyes presenting with sudden decrease in vision (20/400) in her right eye due to a large SMH, treated with anti-VEGF therapy. Over the next following months, there was resolution of the hemorrhage and return of good visual acuity. At 10-year follow-up, visual acuity was 20/30 in the right eye. The second case was a 49-year old female with a history of presumed ocular histoplasmosis syndrome (POHS), presenting with sudden vision loss (20/400) in her right eye due to large, thick SMH. With observation and intermittent anti-VEGF therapy, there was resolution of the hemorrhage. At 30-year follow-up, visual acuity was 20/20 in the right eye.Keywords: choroidal neovascularization, submacular hemorrhage, anti-VEGF, retinal toxicity, age-related macular degeneration, presumed ocular histoplasmosis syndrome

Whole genome sequences (WGS) enable discovery of rare variants which may contribute to missing heritability of coronary artery disease (CAD). To measure their contribution, we apply the GREML-LDMS-I approach to WGS of 4949 cases and 17,494 controls of European ancestry from the NHLBI TOPMed program. We estimate CAD heritability at 34.3% assuming a prevalence of 8.2%. Ultra-rare (minor allele frequency ≤ 0.1%) variants with low linkage disequilibrium (LD) score contribute ~50% of the heritability. We also investigate CAD heritability enrichment using a diverse set of functional annotations: i) constraint; ii) predicted protein-altering impact; iii) cis-regulatory elements from a cell-specific chromatin atlas of the human coronary; and iv) annotation principal components representing a wide range of functional processes. We observe marked enrichment of CAD heritability for most functional annotations. These results reveal the predominant role of ultra-rare variants in low LD on the heritability of CAD. Moreover, they highlight several functional processes including cell type-specific regulatory mechanisms as key drivers of CAD genetic risk.

Clinical trials in metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH, formerly known as nonalcoholic steatohepatitis) require histologic scoring for assessment of inclusion criteria and endpoints. However, variability in interpretation has impacted clinical trial outcomes. We developed an artificial intelligence-based measurement (AIM) tool for scoring MASH histology (AIM-MASH). AIM-MASH predictions for MASH Clinical Research Network necroinflammation grades and fibrosis stages were reproducible (κ = 1) and aligned with expert pathologist consensus scores (κ = 0.62-0.74). The AIM-MASH versus consensus agreements were comparable to average pathologists for MASH Clinical Research Network scores (82% versus 81%) and fibrosis (97% versus 96%). Continuous scores produced by AIM-MASH for key histological features of MASH correlated with mean pathologist scores and noninvasive biomarkers and strongly predicted progression-free survival in patients with stage 3 (P

Computer Science - Computation and Language - Abstract
Machine Translation of Culture-Specific Items (CSIs) poses significant challenges. Recent work on CSI translation has shown some success using Large Language Models (LLMs) to adapt to different languages and cultures; however, a deeper analysis is needed to examine the benefits and pitfalls of each method. In this paper, we introduce the ChineseMenuCSI dataset, the largest for Chinese-English menu corpora, annotated with CSI vs Non-CSI labels and a fine-grained test set. We define three levels of CSI figurativeness for a more nuanced analysis and develop a novel methodology for automatic CSI identification, which outperforms GPT-based prompts in most categories. Importantly, we are the first to integrate human translation theories into LLM-driven translation processes, significantly improving translation accuracy, with COMET scores increasing by up to 7 points.

Multimodal Large Language Models (MM-LLMs) have seen significant advancements in the last year, demonstrating impressive performance across tasks. However, to truly democratize AI, models must exhibit strong capabilities and be able to run efficiently on small compute footprints accessible by most. Part of this quest, we introduce LLaVaOLMoBitnet1B - the first Ternary Multimodal LLM capable of accepting Image(s)+Text inputs to produce coherent textual responses. The model is fully open-sourced along with training scripts to encourage further research in this space. This accompanying technical report highlights the training process, evaluation details, challenges associated with ternary models and future opportunities.

Computer Science - Computation and Language - Abstract
Despite the recent popularity of Large Language Models (LLMs) in Machine Translation (MT), their performance in low-resource languages (LRLs) still lags significantly behind Neural Machine Translation (NMT) models. In this work, we explore what it would take to adapt LLMs for the low-resource setting. Particularly, we re-examine the role of two factors: a) the importance and application of parallel data, and b) diversity in Supervised Fine-Tuning (SFT). Recently, parallel data has seen reduced use in adapting LLMs for MT, while data diversity has been embraced to promote transfer across languages and tasks. However, for low-resource LLM-MT, we show that the opposite is true for both considerations: a) parallel data is critical during both pre-training and SFT; b) diversity tends to cause interference instead of transfer. Our experiments with three LLMs across two low-resourced language groups -- Indigenous American and North-East Indian -- reveal consistent trends, underscoring the generalizability of our findings. We believe these insights will be valuable for scaling to massively multilingual LLM-MT models that can effectively serve LRLs., Comment: 10 pages, 6 figures

Mathematics - Probability ,Mathematics - Combinatorics - Abstract
Consider a model where $N$ equal agents possess `values', belonging to $\mathbb{N}_0$, that are subject to incremental growth over time. More precisely, the values of the agents are represented by $N$ independent, increasing $\mathbb{N}_0$ valued processes with random, independent waiting times between jumps. We show that the event that a single agent possesses the maximum value for all sufficiently large values of time (called `leadership') occurs with probability zero or one, and provide necessary and sufficient conditions for this to occur. Under mild conditions we also provide criteria for a single agent to become the unique agent of maximum value for all sufficiently large times, and also conditions for the emergence of a unique agent having value that tends to infinity before `explosion' occurs (i.e. conditions for `strict leadership' or `monopoly' to occur almost surely). The novelty of this model lies in allowing non-exponentially distributed waiting times between jumps in value. In the particular case when waiting times are mixtures of exponential distributions, we improve a well-established result on the `balls in bins' model with feedback, removing the requirement that the feedback function be bounded from below and also allowing random feedback functions. As part of the proofs we derive necessary and sufficient conditions for the distribution of a convergent series of independent random variables to have an atom on the real line, a result which we believe may be of interest in its own right., Comment: 25 pages, no figures.

Quantum Physics ,Computer Science - Emerging Technologies - Abstract
Quantum Computing (QC) offers the potential to enhance traditional High-Performance Computing (HPC) workloads by leveraging the unique properties of quantum computers, leading to the emergence of a new paradigm: HPC-QC. While this integration presents new opportunities, it also brings novel challenges, particularly in ensuring the dependability of such hybrid systems. This paper aims to identify integration challenges, anticipate failures, and foster a diverse co-design for HPC-QC systems by bringing together QC, cloud computing, HPC, and network security. The focus of this emerging inter-disciplinary effort is to develop engineering principles that ensure the dependability of hybrid systems, aiming for a more prescriptive co-design cycle. Our framework will help to prevent design pitfalls and accelerate the maturation of the QC technology ecosystem. Key aspects include building resilient HPC-QC systems, analyzing the applicability of conventional techniques to the quantum domain, and exploring the complexity of scaling in such hybrid systems. This underscores the need for performance-reliability metrics specific to this new computational paradigm.

Regulatory compliance reporting in the pharmaceutical industry relies on detailed tables, but these are often under-utilized beyond compliance due to their unstructured format and arbitrary content. Extracting and semantically representing tabular data is challenging due to diverse table presentations. Large Language Models (LLMs) demonstrate substantial potential for semantic representation, yet they encounter challenges related to accuracy and context size limitations, which are crucial considerations for the industry applications. We introduce HySem, a pipeline that employs a novel context length optimization technique to generate accurate semantic JSON representations from HTML tables. This approach utilizes a custom fine-tuned model specifically designed for cost- and privacy-sensitive small and medium pharmaceutical enterprises. Running on commodity hardware and leveraging open-source models, HySem surpasses its peer open-source models in accuracy and provides competitive performance when benchmarked against OpenAI GPT-4o and effectively addresses context length limitations, which is a crucial factor for supporting larger tables., Comment: 19 pages, 7 tables, 10 figures, 2 algorithms

The exponential growth of astronomical literature poses significant challenges for researchers navigating and synthesizing general insights or even domain-specific knowledge. We present Pathfinder, a machine learning framework designed to enable literature review and knowledge discovery in astronomy, focusing on semantic searching with natural language instead of syntactic searches with keywords. Utilizing state-of-the-art large language models (LLMs) and a corpus of 350,000 peer-reviewed papers from the Astrophysics Data System (ADS), Pathfinder offers an innovative approach to scientific inquiry and literature exploration. Our framework couples advanced retrieval techniques with LLM-based synthesis to search astronomical literature by semantic context as a complement to currently existing methods that use keywords or citation graphs. It addresses complexities of jargon, named entities, and temporal aspects through time-based and citation-based weighting schemes. We demonstrate the tool's versatility through case studies, showcasing its application in various research scenarios. The system's performance is evaluated using custom benchmarks, including single-paper and multi-paper tasks. Beyond literature review, Pathfinder offers unique capabilities for reformatting answers in ways that are accessible to various audiences (e.g. in a different language or as simplified text), visualizing research landscapes, and tracking the impact of observatories and methodologies. This tool represents a significant advancement in applying AI to astronomical research, aiding researchers at all career stages in navigating modern astronomy literature., Comment: 25 pages, 9 figures, submitted to AAS jorunals.

Computer Science - Machine Learning - Abstract
Sparse autoencoders (SAEs) have shown promise in extracting interpretable features from complex neural networks. We present one of the first applications of SAEs to dense text embeddings from large language models, demonstrating their effectiveness in disentangling semantic concepts. By training SAEs on embeddings of over 420,000 scientific paper abstracts from computer science and astronomy, we show that the resulting sparse representations maintain semantic fidelity while offering interpretability. We analyse these learned features, exploring their behaviour across different model capacities and introducing a novel method for identifying ``feature families'' that represent related concepts at varying levels of abstraction. To demonstrate the practical utility of our approach, we show how these interpretable features can be used to precisely steer semantic search, allowing for fine-grained control over query semantics. This work bridges the gap between the semantic richness of dense embeddings and the interpretability of sparse representations. We open source our embeddings, trained sparse autoencoders, and interpreted features, as well as a web app for exploring them.

The problem of adopting quantum-resistant cryptographic network protocols or post-quantum cryptography (PQC) is critically important to democratizing quantum computing. The problem is urgent because practical quantum computers will break classical encryption in the next few decades. Past encrypted data has already been collected and can be decrypted in the near future. The main challenges of adopting post-quantum cryptography lie in algorithmic complexity and hardware/software/network implementation. The grand question of how existing cyberinfrastructure will support post-quantum cryptography remains unanswered. This paper describes: i) the design of a novel Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC) network instrument placed at the National Center for Supercomputing Applications (NCSA) at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign and a part of the FABRIC testbed; ii) the latest results on PQC adoption rate across a wide spectrum of network protocols (Secure Shell -- SSH, Transport Layer Security -- TLS, etc.); iii) the current state of PQC implementation in key scientific applications (e.g., OpenSSH or SciTokens); iv) the challenges of being quantum-resistant; and v) discussion of potential novel attacks. This is the first large-scale measurement of PQC adoption at national-scale supercomputing centers and FABRIC testbeds. Our results show that only OpenSSH and Google Chrome have successfully implemented PQC and achieved an initial adoption rate of 0.029% (6,044 out of 20,556,816) for OpenSSH connections at NCSA coming from major Internet Service Providers or Autonomous Systems (ASes) such as OARNET, GTT, Google Fiber Webpass (U.S.) and Uppsala Lans Landsting (Sweden), with an overall increasing adoption rate year-over-year for 2023-2024. Our analyses identify pathways to migrate current applications to be quantum-resistant., Comment: Accepted at IEEE QCE 2024

Modern artificial intelligence (AI) systems are powered by foundation models. This paper presents a new set of foundation models, called Llama 3. It is a herd of language models that natively support multilinguality, coding, reasoning, and tool usage. Our largest model is a dense Transformer with 405B parameters and a context window of up to 128K tokens. This paper presents an extensive empirical evaluation of Llama 3. We find that Llama 3 delivers comparable quality to leading language models such as GPT-4 on a plethora of tasks. We publicly release Llama 3, including pre-trained and post-trained versions of the 405B parameter language model and our Llama Guard 3 model for input and output safety. The paper also presents the results of experiments in which we integrate image, video, and speech capabilities into Llama 3 via a compositional approach. We observe this approach performs competitively with the state-of-the-art on image, video, and speech recognition tasks. The resulting models are not yet being broadly released as they are still under development.

We introduce MoMa, a novel modality-aware mixture-of-experts (MoE) architecture designed for pre-training mixed-modal, early-fusion language models. MoMa processes images and text in arbitrary sequences by dividing expert modules into modality-specific groups. These groups exclusively process designated tokens while employing learned routing within each group to maintain semantically informed adaptivity. Our empirical results reveal substantial pre-training efficiency gains through this modality-specific parameter allocation. Under a 1-trillion-token training budget, the MoMa 1.4B model, featuring 4 text experts and 4 image experts, achieves impressive FLOPs savings: 3.7x overall, with 2.6x for text and 5.2x for image processing compared to a compute-equivalent dense baseline, measured by pre-training loss. This outperforms the standard expert-choice MoE with 8 mixed-modal experts, which achieves 3x overall FLOPs savings (3x for text, 2.8x for image). Combining MoMa with mixture-of-depths (MoD) further improves pre-training FLOPs savings to 4.2x overall (text: 3.4x, image: 5.3x), although this combination hurts performance in causal inference due to increased sensitivity to router accuracy. These results demonstrate MoMa's potential to significantly advance the efficiency of mixed-modal, early-fusion language model pre-training, paving the way for more resource-efficient and capable multimodal AI systems., Comment: v2 -> update related work section v3 -> fix spelling

A crucial yet challenging task in galaxy evolution studies is the identification of distant merging galaxies, a task which suffers from a variety of issues ranging from telescope sensitivities and limitations to the inherently chaotic morphologies of young galaxies. In this paper, we use random forests and convolutional neural networks to identify high-redshift JWST CEERS galaxy mergers. We train these algorithms on simulated $3

The Cohen-Lenstra-Martinet heuristics lead one to conjecture that the average size of the $p$-torsion in class groups of $G$-extensions of a number field is finite. In a 2021 paper, Lemke Oliver, Wang, and Wood proved this conjecture in the case of $p = 3$ for permutation groups $G$ of the form $C_2 \wr H$ for a broad family of permutation groups $H$, including most nilpotent groups. However, their theorem does not apply for some nilpotent groups of interest, such as $H = C_5$. We extend their results to prove that the average size of $3$-torsion in class groups of $C_2 \wr H$-extensions is finite for any nilpotent group $H$., Comment: 6 pages, 0 figures
