Differentiable Lifting for Topological Neural Networks

ICLR 2026poster

Topological neural networks (TNNs) enable leveraging high-order structures on graphs (e.g., cycles and cliques) to boost the expressive power of message-passing neural networks. In turn, however, these structures are typically identified a priori through an unsupervised graph lifting operation. Notw…

Kernel Language Entropy: Fine-grained Uncertainty Quantification for LLMs from Semantic Similarities

NeurIPS 2024poster

Uncertainty quantification in Large Language Models (LLMs) is crucial for applications where safety and reliability are important. In particular, uncertainty can be used to improve the trustworthiness of LLMs by detecting factually incorrect model responses, commonly called hallucinations. Criticall…

TSGM: A Flexible Framework for Generative Modeling of Synthetic Time Series

NeurIPS 2024poster

Time series data are essential in a wide range of machine learning (ML) applications. However, temporal data are often scarce or highly sensitive, limiting data sharing and the use of data-intensive ML methods. A possible solution to this problem is the generation of synthetic datasets that resemble…

Thin and deep Gaussian processes

NeurIPS 2023poster

Gaussian processes (GPs) can provide a principled approach to uncertainty quantification with easy-to-interpret kernel hyperparameters, such as the lengthscale, which controls the correlation distance of function values.However, selecting an appropriate kernel can be challenging. Deep GPs avoid man…

Non-separable Spatio-temporal Graph Kernels via SPDEs

AISTATS 2022poster

Gaussian processes (GPs) provide a principled and direct approach for inference and learning on graphs. However, the lack of justified graph kernels for spatio-temporal modelling has held back their use in graph problems. We leverage an explicit link between stochastic partial differential equations…
