Continuous Latent Contexts Enable Efficient Online Learning in Transformers

Emile Anand, Abdullah Ateyeh, Xinyuan Cao +1

Large language models (LLMs) exhibit a strong capacity for in-context learning: Given labeled examples, they can generate good predictions without parameter updates. However, many…

The smallest singular value of inhomogenous random rectangular matrices

Max Dabagia, Manuel Fernandez

Let () be a random matrix with with independent entries that have mean 0 variance 1 and bounded moment. We show that the smallest si…

Coin-Flipping In The Brain: Statistical Learning with Neuronal Assemblies

Max Dabagia, Daniel Mitropolsky, Christos H. Papadimitriou +1

How intelligence arises from the brain is a central problem in science. A crucial aspect of intelligence is dealing with uncertainty -- developing good predictions about one's envi…

Computation with Sequences in a Model of the Brain

Max Dabagia, Christos H. Papadimitriou, Santosh S. Vempala

Even as machine learning exceeds human-level performance on many applications, the generality, robustness, and rapidity of the brain's learning capabilities remain unmatched. How c…

Seeing the forest and the tree: Building representations of both individual and collective dynamics with transformers

Ran Liu, Mehdi Azabou, Max Dabagia +2

Complex time-varying systems are often studied by abstracting away from the dynamics of individual components to build a model of the population-level dynamics from the start. Howe…

Comparing high-dimensional neural recordings by aligning their low-dimensional latent representations

Max Dabagia, Konrad P Kording, Eva L Dyer

Many questions in neuroscience involve understanding of the responses of large populations of neurons. However, when dealing with large-scale neural activity, interpretation become…

Drop, Swap, and Generate: A Self-Supervised Approach for Generating Neural Activity

Ran Liu, Mehdi Azabou, Max Dabagia +5

Meaningful and simplified representations of neural activity can yield insights into how and what information is being processed within a neural circuit. However, without labels, f…

Assemblies of neurons learn to classify well-separated distributions

Max Dabagia, Christos H. Papadimitriou, Santosh S. Vempala

An assembly is a large population of neurons whose synchronous firing is hypothesized to represent a memory, concept, word, and other cognitive categories. Assemblies are believed…

Mine Your Own vieW: Self-Supervised Learning Through Across-Sample Prediction

Mehdi Azabou, Mohammad Gheshlaghi Azar, Ran Liu +10

State-of-the-art methods for self-supervised learning (SSL) build representations by maximizing the similarity between different transformed "views" of a sample. Without sufficient…

Hierarchical Optimal Transport for Multimodal Distribution Alignment

John Lee, Max Dabagia, Eva L. Dyer +1

In many machine learning applications, it is necessary to meaningfully aggregate, through alignment, different but related datasets. Optimal transport (OT)-based approaches pose al…
