PJ-RoPE: A Fourier-Jet-Affine Position Space for Relative Attention
Announce Type: new Abstract: We unify RoPE's Fourier phase, Jordan-RoPE's finite jets, and ALiBi's affine recency into a single learnable relative-position space, and study which regions of this space are selected by different tasks. PJ-RoPE is a Fourier-Jet-Affine formulation for relative attention, with an optional Poincare-type reading as the affine completion of a homogeneous Fourier-jet positional representation. Algebraically, the same primitives form a finite constant-coefficient...
Affine Filtering Measurements and Their Applications to Quantum Decoding
Announce Type: cross Abstract: Unambiguous state discrimination (USD) measurements are attractive because outcomes are either marked as conclusive (i.e., error free) or inconclusive (i.e., erased). We study affine filtering measurements, a structured variant of USD for decoding classical linear codes over pure-state classical-quantum channels, where a conclusive outcome identifies an affine subspace containing the transmitted codeword and an inconclusive outcome is treated as an erasure. For...
Learning Control-Affine Reduced-Order Models via Autoencoders
Announce Type: cross Abstract: We present in this paper a framework for the identification of control-affine reduced-order models (ROMs). The proposed method utilizes autoencoders (AEs) to transform the high-dimensional states, and potentially the high-dimensional inputs, into reduced latent ones suitable for control-affine state-space dynamics. This is achieved by simultaneous training of the AE and the state-space model.
A Barrier-Modulated Architecture for Safe Affine Formation Control in Second-Order Multi-Agent Systems
arXiv:2606.08137v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Affine formation control offers immense flexibility for coordinating multi-agent maneuvers, but guaranteeing the safety of agents under parametric uncertainties remains an open challenge. This paper proposes a novel safe affine formation control framework for second-order multi-agent systems by integrating Higher-Order Control Barrier Functions (HOCBFs) with Adaptive Dynamic Programming (ADP). We introduce a barrier-modulated control...
Exploring diverse routes to high-affinity-antibody variable domains through deep-sequencing-informed machine learning
The integration of in vitro selection, deep sequencing, and machine learning (ML) has recently been developed as a powerful strategy for discovering functional antibodies. However, how training data composition and ML search space design influence the identification of high-affinity variants remains unclear. Here, we aimed to optimize ML-integrated directed evolution for functional antibody discovery by selecting training data from deep sequencing analysis.
Clipped Affine Policy: Low-Complexity Near-Optimal Online Power Control for Energy Harvesting Communications over Fading Channels
arXiv:2601.07622v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: This paper studies online power control for battery-limited point-to-point energy harvesting communications over slow block-fading channels. A linear-policy-based approximation is developed for the relative-value function in the Bellman equation of the power control problem. This approximation leads to two fundamental parameterized clipped affine policies: an optimistic policy derived from a certainty-equivalence-type approximation and a...
Fog of Love: Engineering Virtuous Agent Behavior with Affinity-based Reinforcement Learning in a Game Environment
arXiv:2606.04750v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Instilling virtuous behavior in artificial intelligence has seen increasing interest. One of the techniques proposed is known as affinity-based reinforcement learning, which uses policy regularization on the objective function to incentivize virtuous actions without being fully dependent on the reward function design. Thus far, this technique has been demonstrated to be effective in grid worlds and toy-problem environments with minimal state...
Excitation of control-affine systems and Koopman error bounds
arXiv:2511.03734v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: The Koopman operator and extended dynamic mode decomposition (EDMD) as a data-driven technique for its approximation have attracted considerable attention as a key tool for modeling, analysis, and control of complex dynamical systems. However, extensions towards control-affine systems resulting in bilinear surrogate models are prone to demanding data requirements rendering their applicability intricate. In this paper, we propose a framework...
HonestAffinity: Leak-Aware Evaluation of Protein and Pocket Priors for Binding Affinity Prediction
arXiv:2606.03422v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Sequence-based deep learning offers a scalable alternative to structure-based scoring for protein-ligand binding affinity prediction. However, progress is hard to interpret when architectural priors are evaluated on canonical PDBbind-style splits that leak similarity classes across folds.
MidSteer: Optimal Affine Framework for Steering Generative Models
Announce Type: replace Abstract: Steering intermediate representations has emerged as a powerful strategy for controlling generative models, particularly in post-deployment alignment and safety settings. However, despite its empirical success, it currently lacks a comprehensive theoretical framework. In this paper, we bridge this gap by formalizing the theory of concept steering.
