Incremental Transformer Neural Processes
Announce Type: replace Abstract: Neural Processes (NPs), and specifically Transformer Neural Processes (TNPs), have demonstrated remarkable performance across tasks ranging from spatiotemporal forecasting to tabular data modelling. However, many of these applications are inherently sequential, involving continuous data streams such as real-time sensor readings or database updates. In such settings, models should support cheap, incremental updates rather than recomputing internal...
Probabilistic Data-Driven Modelling of Astrophysical Transients: The Neural Process Family for Ultrafast and Class-Agnostic Light Curve Reconstruction with NightLANP
Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Astrophysical observations from Earth are subject to weather, environmental, and scientific constraints that lead to sparse, irregular light curves. On the eve of the Vera C. Rubin Observatory Legacy Survey of Space and Time, its dataset offers unprecedented opportunities for transient science. Yet a key challenge remains its cadence, sparse and irregular across six bands, limiting inference.
Revisiting Neural Processes via Fourier Transform and Volterra Series
arXiv:2606.01172v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Modeling unknown latent functions from finite, irregularly sampled measurements is a recurring challenge across science and engineering. Neural processes (NPs), a family of probabilistic functional models, are promising solutions -- especially when endowed with domain-specific symmetries like translation equivariance, which improve sample efficiency and generalization. Yet existing translation-equivariant NPs face two limitations: (i) they...
Replacing Gaussian Processes with Neural Networks in Pulsar Timing Array Inference of the Gravitational-Wave Background
Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Bayesian inference of nanohertz gravitational-wave background models in pulsar timing array analyses often relies on Gaussian-process interpolators to avoid repeated, computationally expensive strain-spectrum calculations. However, Gaussian-process training becomes a bottleneck for large training sets. We test whether probabilistic neural networks can replace Gaussian processes in this role for both a self-interacting dark matter model and a...
APIC: Amortized Physics-Informed Calibration using Neural Processes
Announce Type: new Abstract: Physics models are inherently imperfect due to misspecified or missing mechanisms, resulting in systematic discrepancies between model predictions and real-world observations. The Kennedy-O'Hagan (KOH) framework addresses this issue through explicit discrepancy modeling. However, its non-amortized, per-instance formulation limits scalability across families of related systems.
Advances in Temporal Point Processes: Bayesian, Neural, and LLM Approaches
arXiv:2501.14291v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Temporal point processes (TPPs) are stochastic process models used to characterize event sequences occurring in continuous time. Traditional statistical TPPs have a long-standing history, with numerous models proposed and successfully applied across diverse domains. In recent years, advances in deep learning have spurred the development of neural TPPs, enabling greater flexibility and expressiveness in capturing complex temporal dynamics.
Brain2Text Decoding Model Reveals the Neural Mechanisms of Visual Semantic Processing
arXiv:2503.22697v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Decoding sensory experiences from neural activity to reconstruct human-perceived visual stimuli and semantic content remains a challenge in neuroscience and artificial intelligence. Despite notable progress in current brain decoding models, a critical gap still persists in their systematic integration with established neuroscientific theories and the exploration of underlying neural mechanisms. Here, we present a novel framework that...
Improving the sharpness in neural network-based parametric post-processing of ensemble forecasts
arXiv:2606.08587v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Statistical post-processing has proven to be an effective tool in improving ensemble forecast of different weather variables. Case studies show that post-processing can remedy the typically underdispersive and potentially biased behaviour of the ensemble while optimizing a proper scoring rule expressing the forecast skill. The price of these positive effects is generally a deterioration in sharpness; the width of the central prediction...
Quantifying Uncertainty In Wide Two-Layer Neural Networks: On The Law Of The Limiting Fluctuation Process
Announce Type: new Abstract: Uncertainty quantification in neural networks prediction is a main issue for usual applications. Our approach seeks at reducing computation costs by directly evaluating uncertainty using PDE's information on the asymptotic variance, rather than the deep ensemble method which may be seen as a Monte Carlo estimation of the prediction, requiring the training of multiple networks. We thus study the law of the limiting process describing the random fluctuations around...
Data Efficient Complex Feature Fusion Network For Hyperspectral Image Classification
arXiv:2606.04710v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: This work presents a data-efficient variant of the Attention-Based Dual-Branch Complex Feature Fusion Network (CFFN) for hyperspectral image classification. The proposed model, termed DE-CFFN, retains the original two-stream structure: the Real-Valued Neural Network (RVNN) processes standard hyperspectral patches, while the Complex-Valued Neural Network (CVNN) handles their Fourier-transformed counterparts.
