Sparse Autoencoders for Interpretable Out-of-Distribution Detection

Ayush Karmacharya, Luke Luschwitz, Lucia Romero, Yanan Niu, Joseph Campbell

Reliable detection of out-of-distribution (OOD) samples is crucial for the safe deployment of machine learning models. Neural networks often produce overconfident predictions for inputs that deviate from their training data, leading to significant degradation in performance. Whil…

PIT-SUN: A Deployable Empirical Marginal Transform Framework with Expectation-Consistent Recovery for Regression in Recommender Systems

Mingyu Zhao, Zhaohan Li, Zhenxiong Miao, Xu Zhang, Dewei Leng, Yanan Niu, et al.

Estimating original-space conditional expectations is central to value-driven recommender systems, including dwell time, GMV, and LTV forecasting. Standard MSE is expectation-consistent in principle, but its gradients become unstable on heavy-tailed, zero-inflated, and multimodal…
