Send the pool guy packing. One of these robotic buddies can maintain your water quality instead. Cleaning swimming pools is not fun. I learned this simple logic as a kid growing up in and around pools--it's the only way to survive summer in Houston, Texas. Four years ago, I became a pool owner myself, and I found that the rule still holds. Jumping into the pool on a hot day remains a rare treat, but if the pool is filled with leaves and dirt, that treat becomes a lot less delightful. And when the thermometer is reading over 100 degrees Fahrenheit, the thought of laboring on the pool deck, scooping out debris with a net, is downright cruel.

Transformer-based scientific foundation models are increasingly deployed in high-stakes settings, but current architectures give deterministic outputs and provide limited support for calibrated predictive uncertainty. We propose Stochastic Attention, a lightweight inference-time modification that randomizes attention by replacing softmax weights with normalized multinomial samples controlled by a single concentration parameter, and produces predictive ensembles without retraining. To set this parameter, we introduce a calibration objective that matches the stochastic attention output with the target, yielding an efficient univariate post-hoc tuning problem. We evaluate this mechanism on two scientific foundation models for weather and timeseries forecasting along with an additional regression task. Across benchmarks against uncertainty-aware baselines, we find that Stochastic Attention achieves the strongest native calibration and the sharpest prediction intervals at comparable coverage, while requiring only minutes of post-hoc tuning versus days of retraining for competitive baselines.

Fréchet regression, or conditional Barycenters, is a flexible framework for modeling relationships between covariates (usually Euclidean) and response variables on general metric spaces, e.g., probability distributions or positive definite matrices. However, in contrast to classical barycenter problems, computing conditional counterparts in many non-Euclidean spaces remains an open challenge, as they yield non-convex optimization problems with an affine structure. In this work, we study the existence and computation of conditional barycenters, specifically in the space of positive-definite matrices with the Bures-Wasserstein metric. We provide a sufficient condition for the existence of a minimizer of the conditional barycenter problem that characterizes the regression range of extrapolation. Moreover, we further characterize the optimization landscape, proving that under this condition, the objective is free of local maxima. Additionally, we develop a projection-free and provably correct algorithm for the approximate computation of first-order stationary points. Finally, we provide a stochastic reformulation that enables the use of off-the-shelf stochastic Riemannian optimization methods for large-scale setups. Numerical experiments validate the performance of the proposed methods on regression problems of real-world biological networks and on large-scale synthetic Diffusion Tensor Imaging problems.

Reinforcement learning algorithms have been widely used for decision-making tasks in various domains. However, the performance of these algorithms can be impacted by high variance and instability, particularly in environments with noise or sparse rewards. In this paper, we propose a framework to perform statistical online inference for a sample-averaged Q-learning approach. We adapt the functional central limit theorem (FCLT) for the modified algorithm under some general conditions and then construct confidence intervals for the Q-values via random scaling. We conduct experiments to perform inference on both the modified approach and its traditional counterpart, Q-learning using random scaling and report their coverage rates and confidence interval widths on two problems: a grid world problem as a simple toy example and a dynamic resource-matching problem as a real-world example for comparison between the two solution approaches.

We study forward and inverse problems for time-dependent probability measures in Bayes--Hilbert spaces. On the forward side, we show that each sufficiently regular Bayes--Hilbert path admits a canonical dynamical realization: a weighted Neumann problem transforms the log-density variation into the unique gradient velocity field of minimum kinetic energy. This construction induces a transport form on Bayes--Hilbert tangent directions, which measures the dynamical cost of realizing prescribed motions, and yields a flow-matching interpretation in which the canonical velocity field is the minimum-energy execution of the prescribed path. On the inverse side, we formulate reconstruction directly on Bayes--Hilbert path space from time-dependent indirect observations. The resulting variational problem combines a data-misfit term with the transport action induced by the forward geometry. In our infinite-dimensional setting, however, this transport geometry alone does not provide sufficient compactness, so we add explicit temporal and spatial regularization to close the theory. The linearized observation operator induces a complementary observability form, which quantifies how strongly tangent directions are seen through the data. Under explicit Sobolev regularity and observability assumptions, we prove existence of minimizers, derive first-variation formulas, establish local stability of the observation map, and deduce recovery of the evolving law, its score, and its canonical velocity field under the strong topologies furnished by the compactness theory.

European nations are already being reluctantly pulled into the crisis, deploying military assets to defend allies while trying to avoid direct involvement. Military analysts have warned that if the fighting expands and draws in Iran's powerful allies, including Russia and China, the risk of a catastrophic global war could rise dramatically.
