Structural Loss Metrics for Tensor Approximation via Matrix Low-Rank Approximation2607.24009AuthorsHiroki HasegawaAbstractMatricized low-rank approximation via SVD is a standard surrogate for tensor decompositions, but entry-wise reconstruction error fails to capture multiway geometric degradation. Under an orthogonal Tucker model, we characterize this degradation using two metrics: cross-mode Direction Loss, measuring geometric subspace deviation from rank truncation and noise rotation, and Interaction Loss, quantifying multilinear interaction distortion in the core tensor. We prove that squared relative reconstruction error orthogonally decomposes into interaction loss and out-of-subspace energy, and derive a Wedin-type bound establishing the stability of a plug-in Direction Loss estimator. Experiments on synthetic and hyperspectral datasets demonstrate that nearly identical reconstruction errors can yield markedly different structural-loss profiles; hyperspectral patches with comparable reconstruction errors exhibit up to a 4.6-fold difference in Direction Loss, correlating with severe visual blurring.ResourcesView on Hugging FaceRead PDFArXiv

Learning 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

Tracing 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
