Certified Parallel-in-Time Sinkhorn for Dynamic Entropic Optimal Transport2607.24741AuthorsXinyang WenAbstractDynamic applications, including optimal-transport Flow Matching, repeatedly solve related entropic optimal transport problems, yet conventional distributed Sinkhorn processes frames sequentially and synchronizes after every iteration. We present TemporalSinkhorn, a parallel-in-time executor that batches future candidates and their repairs without making output accuracy speculative. A centered, row-sharded certificate accepts only a deterministic safe prefix. The remaining candidates share packed Sinkhorn updates; an online projective forgetting rate places audit milestones, while a posteriori residual checks recover from every depth underestimate. Prediction can therefore change work placement but cannot authorize an inaccurate output. On 4 A100 GPUs, a 60-run, five-seed grid at n = 2048 shows that forgetting-guided milestones reduce wall time by 1.15x-1.47x relative to auditing every packed iteration in five statistically resolved regime cells. Against a sequential soft c-transform warm start, temporal execution is 1.42x-3.55x faster across six synthetic streams, with zero marginal-tolerance violations. On Flow Matching minibatch streams, temporal execution is 3.054x-3.632x faster than sequential carry at n = 2048, with no tolerance violations. A separate fixed-kernel test on an RTX 4060 Laptop GPU gives a 4.315x geometric-mean speedup. These are complementary deployment studies rather than a controlled hardware comparison. End-to-end Flow Matching integration, optimized-solver comparisons, and multi-node validation remain open.ResourcesView on Hugging FaceRead PDFArXiv

ResearchLearning When to Trust via Selective Context Preference Optimization
Language models increasingly condition their answers on external signals, and a single misleading one can turn a correct answer wrong. The obvious remedy, training models to resist such signals, hides a failure mode: a model that ignores all context looks robust yet is useless when the context is worth trusting. We recast the problem as selective trust and introduce MIST, a human-annotated benchmark that renders each reasoning item under four matched conditions (clean, misleading, correct-context, and irrelevant-context), together with SC2W, a paired metric counting how often a misle

ResearchTracing the Heart: An Evidence-Linked Pipeline for Heart-Failure Feature Engineering
Electronic health record (EHR) feature engineering is a major bottleneck in clinical research and AI, accounting for 39-45% of data scientists' workload. This is especially pronounced in heart failure, which affects an estimated 6.7 million U.S. adults and requires integrating fragmented EHR data with disease-specific, guideline-based clinical reasoning. Existing rule-based and large language model (LLM)-based approaches offer only partial automation with limited maintainability and evidence traceability. We developed the Nimblemind Multi-Agent System (nMAS), an evidence-linked, rubr
