The Exponential Moving Average (EMA) is a cornerstone of widely used optimizers such as Adam. However, existing theoretical analyses of Adam-style methods have notable limitations: their guarantees can remain suboptimal in the zero-noise…

Backward reachable tubes (BRTs), computed via viscous Hamilton-Jacobi (HJ) partial differential equations, provide principled safety certificates for learned controllers and planning algorithms in trustworthy machine learning. However,…

Standard Test-Time Adaptation (TTA) methods typically treat inference as a blind optimization task, applying generic objectives to all or filtered test samples. In safety-critical medical segmentation, this lack of selectivity often causes…

A novel method of exponentially stable adaptive control to compensate for matched parametric uncertainty under a mild condition of semi-persistent excitation (s-PE) of a regressor with piecewise-constant rank and nullspace is proposed. It…

Current reinforcement learning (RL) frameworks for large language models (LLM) post-training typically assume a fixed prompt distribution, which is sub-optimal and bottlenecks scalability. Prior works have explored prompt evolving, but are…

Autonomous spacecraft docking requires control policies that simultaneously ensure collision avoidance and target reachability under coupled, high-dimensional translational-rotational dynamics. Hamilton-Jacobi (HJ) reachability provides…

We consider the problem of adaptive control of a class of feedback linearizable plants with matched parametric uncertainties whose states are accessible, subject to state constraints, which often arise due to safety considerations. In this…

In the \emph {barrier resilience} problem (introduced by Kumar {\em et al.}, Wireless Networks 2007), we are given a collection of regions of the plane, acting as obstacles, and we would like to remove the minimum number of regions so that…

We propose SUN-VQC, a variational-circuit architecture whose elementary layers are single exponentials of a symmetry-restricted Lie subgroup, $\mathrm{SU}(2^{k}) \subset \mathrm{SU}(2^{n})$ with $k \ll n$. Confining the evolution to this…

Variational quantum eigensolvers (VQEs) represent a powerful class of hybrid quantum-classical algorithms for computing molecular energies. Various numerical issues exist for these methods, however, including barren plateaus and large…

Evolutionary algorithms (EAs) are the preferred method for solving black-box multi-objective optimization problems, but when gradients of the objective functions are available, it is not straightforward to exploit these efficiently. By…

The conventional Artificial Potential Field (APF) is fundamentally limited by the local minima issue and its inability to account for the kinematics of moving obstacles. This paper addresses the critical challenge of autonomous collision…

Unsupervised and semi-supervised ML methods such as variational autoencoders (VAE) have become widely adopted across multiple areas of physics, chemistry, and materials sciences due to their capability in disentangling representations and…

Optimizing vision models purely for classification accuracy can impose an alignment tax, degrading human-like scanpaths and limiting interpretability. We introduce EVA, a neuroscience-inspired hard-attention mechanistic testbed that makes…
