Turning Quantum Compiler Configuration Selection Upside Down: A Top-Down Paradigm
arXiv:2610.29170v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Selecting an effective quantum compiler configuration requires coordinated decisions over both hardware targets and compiler settings, with the ultimate goal of improving…
Curvature-Scaled Sharpness-Aware Minimization: Convergence Beyond Smoothness
arXiv:2610.29192v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Sharpness-Aware Minimization (SAM) has established itself as a widely used method for training deep neural networks. Despite its popularity, existing convergence guarante…
Motivation and Contribution in Open Source Software: A Meta-Analytic Investigation
arXiv:2610.29199v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Research on why people contribute to open source software (OSS) and related open collaboration platforms spans more than two decades, but its findings conflict, and studi…
On the gradient conjecture at infinity: Finite spherical length for gradient trajectories of definable potentials
arXiv:2610.29211v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We prove that for every open $ U \subseteq \mathbb R^n $ the spherical projection of every gradient trajectory $\theta(t)$, $t \geq 0$, of a definable $C^1$-potential $F …
Huayu-Global: Skillful real-time quasi-global precipitation retrieval
arXiv:2610.29213v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Satellite precipitation products face a persistent trade-off: real-time estimates are timely but less accurate, whereas the most reliable products are often released mont…
Schr\"odinger-Bass Bridge Barycenter Models for Measure-Valued Data
arXiv:2610.29227v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Barycenter models, based on stochastic and deterministic optimal transport bridges between probability measures, have proven to be useful for supervised and unsupervised …
PQ-Vault: Provably Quantum-Safe Asset Custody for Unmodified Ethereum
arXiv:2610.29230v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: A quantum computer could recover the key of any Ethereum account whose public key appears on chain. We prove that no sidechain or bridge that leaves Ethereum's rules unch…
Group Distributionally Robust Optimization over Decentralized Networks
arXiv:2610.29261v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We study group distributionally robust optimization (GDRO) over decentralized networks, where workers collaborate to learn robust models by minimizing the maximum local r…
A proof of Ward's conjecture on Griesmer codes
arXiv:2610.29275v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Let $C$ be an $[n,k,d]_q$ Griesmer code, where $q=p^f$ with $p$ prime, and write $e=\nu_p(d)$. Ward conjectured that $C$ is $p^{\max\{0,e-f+1\}}$-divisible. In this paper…
Data-driven and physics-guided hindcasting of measured wave spectra
arXiv:2610.29306v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Short-range hindcasts of measured wave spectra are evaluated using a recurrent model initialized by one hourly buoy spectrum and supplied with local wind, fetch and depth…
When Thoughts Become Memory: Unifying In-Context Learning and Fine-Tuning
arXiv:2610.29419v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We are the first to give a certified rule for whether unseen data belong in a pretrained model's context or its weights, built on an exact law for their information value…
Asynchronous, Generation-Free ABC: Streaming AMIS Reweighting for Heterogeneous Simulator Workloads on HPC
arXiv:2610.29506v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Approximate Bayesian computation (ABC) enables Bayesian inference for models with intractable likelihoods by estimating parameter posterior distributions from simulated d…
A unified approach for estimation of unnormalized models via Stein operators
arXiv:2610.29510v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: In this paper, we develop a unified framework connecting proper scoring rules and Stein's method for the estimation of unnormalized models. We construct a class of proper…
Residual-Based Causal Discovery via Pretrained In-Context Quantile Regression
arXiv:2610.29530v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Residual-based causal discovery assumes that each variable is generated from its parents and an independent noise source. It estimates this noise and tests its independen…
