Accurate and timely detection of degradation in lithium-ion batteries is crucial to ensure safety, reliability, and longevity in high-demand applications such as electric vehicles and energy storage systems. Traditional incremental capacity (IC) analysis methods require…

Training a language model on data with a narrow flaw can sometimes make the model broadly misaligned. Inspecting the data at face value often does not settle whether it will emerge, and today it is caught only after training, by auditing the resulting model. To complement…

Can simple learning rules keep their regret bounded in self-play? Recent work achieves constant regret bounds through modified regularization and higher-order prediction. Yet for Optimistic Hedge, arguably the most canonical method in games, the best known individual regret…

Time series foundation models (TSFMs) have recently delivered impressive zero-shot performance across diverse forecasting tasks. However, real-world decision-making frequently relies on \emph{irregular multivariate time series} (IMTS), where inconsistent inter-observation…
