Filter Learning for Subgraphs: Algebras and Performance Risk Bounds2607.21263AuthorsPurui Zhang,Feng Ji,Yanan Zhao,Bihan Wen,Wee Peng TayAbstractGraph signal processing tasks that leverage spectral information typically assume access to the complete graph topology, which is often unavailable in practice. We propose a systematic framework for subgraph filter learning (SFL), where subgraph-supported operators approximate ambient graph filters under partial observations. We formulate SFL as a statistical learning problem in which optimal subgraph operators are inherently data-dependent. To address the difficulty of directly estimating such operators, we develop a subgraph filter algebra based on distance-aware Laplacian constructions, defining a structured and controllable class of filters for effective approximation. We further establish performance risk bounds under the least squares loss, quantifying how well the learned operator approximates the restricted ambient mapping. Experiments real-world datasets show that, for SFL tasks, the proposed algebraic models consistently outperform polynomial filters, distribution-agnostic operators, and direct numerical filter learning baselines that attempt to recover the underlying structure from data.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
