Excited to share our group’s latest work at #AISTATS2025! 🎓
Tackling concentration in dependent data settings with empirical Bernstein bounds for Hilbert space-valued processes.
📍Catch the poster tomorrow!

🔁 See the original tweet for details!
🚨 Poster at #AISTATS2025 tomorrow!
📍Poster Session 1 #125

We present a new empirical Bernstein inequality for Hilbert space-valued random processes—relevant for dependent, even non-stationary data.

DeltaProduct is here! Achieve better state tracing through highly parallel execution. Explore more!🚀
1/9 There is a fundamental tradeoff between parallelizability and expressivity of Large Language Models. We propose a new linear RNN architecture, DeltaProduct, that can effectively navigate this tradeoff. Here's how!

1/ 🚀 Over the past two years, our team, CSML, at IIT, has made significant strides in the data-driven modeling of dynamical systems. Curious about how we use advanced operator-based techniques to tackle real-world challenges? Let’s dive in! 🧵👇

An inspiring dive into understanding dynamical processes through 'The Operator Way.' A fascinating approach made accessible for everyone—check it out! 👇👀
For the past four years, I’ve been working on a topic that’s both fascinating and challenging to explain. In this post, I’ve tried to present The Operator Way — a paradigm for understanding dynamical processes — in plain, approachable terms.

If interested, you can attend the presentation the 14th at 15:00, pass at the afternoon poster session, or DM me to discuss :)
Unlocking State-Tracking in Linear RNNs Through Negative Eigenvalues
Linear Recurrent Neural Networks (LRNNs) such as Mamba, RWKV, GLA, mLSTM, and DeltaNet have emerged as efficient alternatives to Transformers in large language modeling, offering linear scaling with…
